Swapped
I don't usually expect much from Netflix originals, especially when they're seemingly self-advertised as a top 10 film. However, the animation looked really cute, I was intrigued that they convinced Michael B. Jordan to be in it, and the Rotten Tomatoes scores weren't half
One Spoon of Chocolate
Another week, another awesome Monday secret screening! This film wasn't on my radar at all, which is rare. I was especially shocked to see Quentin Tarantino attached to something I wasn't aware of. With an awesome title like this and some really unique people involved, this
Mother Mary
I was hearing some pretty interesting things about Mother Mary from various people. "It's a fictional music biopic", "it's a ghost movie", "it's a trippy, failed romance", all sorts of things. I don't know if I&
Over Your Dead Body
I've been hyped for months about Over Your Dead Body, so imagine my excitement when I got to watch it early at a Monday secret screening! Samara Weaving's horror-comedies always rank among my favorite movies, and the premise was so fantastic that I was absolutely hooked.
Hokum
Two horror films dropped early at my local Regal theater for the Monday Mystery Movie event: this film in the "Nightmares" category, and Over Your Dead Body in the "Scares" category. This is always my favorite way to see new movies, as I never know what
The Mummy
Going into this film, I had no reference point for either Lee Cronin as a director or for any of the previous 16 Mummy films (or the 5 Scorpion King spin-offs or the TV show... at least I did my research here). I know, I'm completely behind, I&
Normal (2026)
New standalone action movies are all super hit-or-miss for me: they're usually completely boring and uninteresting to me, or one of my new favorites of the year. I can't even think of a film in recent memory that was anywhere in between. I loved Shelter and
I've been hyped for months about Over Your Dead Body, so imagine my excitement when I got to watch it early at a Monday secret screening! Samara Weaving's horror-comedies always rank among my favorite movies, and the premise was so fantastic that I was absolutely hooked.
I may have been on an island putting this in my top 5 most anticipated films of 2026, but I'm not at all ashamed. From the hilarious trailer to perhaps the world's best tagline in "she came for the pasta but got lost in the
With worse reviews and worse Internet discourse than the last film, it's going to be even more polarizing to talk about this one. Great, exactly what I needed today. That aside, I was pretty dang hyped for this movie... Even though the first was only like a 7
Honestly, Project: Hail Mary wasn't a film I was very excited for. It probably wouldn't have even been near my top 30 most anticipated films this year! However, with great word of mouth about the book and Rocky looking cute, I had to watch it, if
Because watching together is just better.
Another Monday, another secret screening, another highlight of my week. Fuze was this week's offering, and a film that I knew absolutely nothing about. With a great cast and a simple name, I was excited to see the film play out after the title drop. And did my
I may have been on an island putting this in my top 5 most anticipated films of 2026, but I'm not at all ashamed. From the hilarious trailer to perhaps the world's best tagline in "she came for the pasta but got lost in the
Walking into this film, I was just hyped to get another Japanese film. What I wasn't aware of was that, not only is it regarded as a masterful liminal thriller, but, to my knowledge, it is now the highest-rated video game-to-film adaptation of all time. This film was
I don't really get hyped about new MMA movies or even sports movies in general, but I do go and see practically every movie, so here I was, watching Beast on its last day in theaters. And, honestly...? It didn't disappoint, and was so much better
Taking an amazing premise and a great meta spin on a reboot, I was pretty stoked to check this film out. I haven't watched the original series yet, since I didn't even know it existed until I was on the way to the cinema to watch
I didn't have this film on my radar until the day it hit theaters, and I was really excited to see we were getting a new anime film! I'm a big fan of Japanese animation, even though I don't have enough time to watch
As usual, I showed up at my local Regal for the Monday secret screening. And, as often happens for me at my theater, it was again wrongfully displayed that this would be a horror movie. Totally happy it wasn't that, though, don't get me wrong, because
With worse reviews and worse Internet discourse than the last film, it's going to be even more polarizing to talk about this one. Great, exactly what I needed today. That aside, I was pretty dang hyped for this movie... Even though the first was only like a 7
The Super Mario Bros. Movie has so much passion and is lovingly made, but is it good? I might be sick of Internet discourse about these films and how rude everyone is to one another. Yet I'm not tired of writing movie reviews, and I'm certainly
There was only one showing each of this and Rākāsā on opening day at my local theater... and they were Friday morning showings! I mean, how on earth was my local Indian community able to make it by skipping work? Anyway, I was sick and didn't want to
I had no idea what to expect from this film beyond the fact that it'd probably be a drama and that I'd enjoy the performances. I didn't even read a pitch or watch a trailer, which I don't usually do since I
I was hoping to go see this film with my mom since we were both looking forward to it quite a bit, but she was out of town, selflessly helping my grandparents move. Shoutouts and kudos to her! As such, I officially and formally dedicate this entire article to my
