Alfred Hitchcock is my favorite director of all time (I know, super original), even as a young man so far removed from his cinematic prime. I mean, I was born twenty-seven years after he died, for goodness sake! But I digress. Psycho is far and away Hitchcock's most
As a massive fan of Japanese anime films, with Weathering With You and A Silent Voice both instantly placing in my top five favorite movies upon watching them, the whole premise of Patema Inverted felt right up my alley. So, did this film impress or depress? That's what

The original Planet of the Apes series had an incredibly intriguing run! The first film? It's an utter masterpiece. The second? It was a misguided rehash that was too weird for my liking. The third? It's nearly as good as the original, even though it is
After a masterpiece, a monumental misfire, and a guilty-pleasure favorite movie of mine, where will Conquest of the Planet of the Apes land on the spectrum of Planet of the Apes films? Yet again, it was quite interesting to predict where this sequel would take the series, and yet again,
After experiencing a cinematic masterpiece and a disappointing sequel, I was intrigued to see what this movie had to offer and how it even was made. The second film's bombastic ending didn't seem to lend itself to a sequel, especially since it retroactively affected the original&
Beneath the Planet of the Apes is an... interesting movie. I was so excited after watching the phenomenal first movie, as I found that movie to be perfectly concluded and had no idea where the film crew would take a sequel. And let's just say the movie was
Planet of the Apes is a film I was always hesitant to watch because, frankly, the premise of apes talking like humans was always too goofy for me. However, watching it for the first time in 2024, this is one of my new favorite movies of all time! In this
