I don’t rate movies. Stories hit people differently. I’d rather talk about what they mean than how many stars they get.

Have you ever watched a horror trailer and immediately written the movie off, only to still go see it? That was my path to Whistle. Let me know what you thought.

Just walked out of the theater after watching Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die.
I’ve got a lot to unpack with this one and I cannot wait to share it with you.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Mercy traps you in the same cycle as doomscrolling.
You keep waiting for the next piece to matter.
It never really does.
That exhaustion feels intentional. I just don’t think it’s rewarding.

Just dropped my full review of Greenland: Migration.
The original film surprised me with how survival felt unstable and reactive. This sequel takes a very different approach, and for me, it confuses despair with depth.
If you’ve seen it, I’d love to hear how it worked for you.

Primate is not a good movie. It’s horror candy.
This is surface-level survival horror built on intensity, escalation, and reaction, not character depth or meaning. It knows exactly what it is and never tries to be more than that.
Curious where this one landed for you.

The Secret Agent isn't a typical thriller; it’s a demanding, surreal dive into Brazil’s haunted past. From the Cannes-winning performance of Wagner Moura to a mystery sparked by a shark’s discovery, this is a film that lingers long after it ends.
