[Review] Prey (2022) Is an Amazingly Intense Return to Form for the Predator Franchise

I have just watched Prey (2022) Without a doubt, this is the BEST Predator movie since the first one graced 80s theaters. This movie brings the Predator franchise back to its roots. No unnecessary fluff, no ridiculous “autism are powers”, and no boring stretches of cringe dialogue. Instead, we get a simple and focused story with strong themes, gorgeous cinematography, engaging characters, and most importantly, … Continue reading [Review] Prey (2022) Is an Amazingly Intense Return to Form for the Predator Franchise

[Spoiler Review] Finally, Spider-Man: No Way Home Really Makes You FEEL Like Spider-Man

Yes, that was a dunkey reference. First Impressions This is the best Holland Spider-Man movie by a LONG shot, it’s not even close if I am being totally honest. The brilliance of making us think that this Peter didn’t need an origin story then pulling the rug out from under us by revealing the entire trilogy was the origin story? Spectacular.Let’s get it out of … Continue reading [Spoiler Review] Finally, Spider-Man: No Way Home Really Makes You FEEL Like Spider-Man

[Movie Essay] The Intimacy of Encanto

[Minor spoilers for Encanto] Encanto is the latest animated feature from the NOT-Pixar side of Disney’s animation team, and it’s got to be one of the most charming and sincere of their films to come out in recent years. The music is catchy yet it develops the characters really well. The visuals are masterfully crafted and don’t act as crutches for the movie’s existence. The … Continue reading [Movie Essay] The Intimacy of Encanto

A Review Of Arcane From Someone Who Doesn’t Play League of Legends – Act I

Full disclosure, I have near-zero knowledge of League. I play Runeterra a lot, but that would be like saying I’m a Warcraft loremaster because I play Hearthstone. In essence, I’m going into this show blind, and will be judging it on its own merits, so if you’re interested in Arcane but not a League fan, or a League fan looking to know if Riot has … Continue reading A Review Of Arcane From Someone Who Doesn’t Play League of Legends – Act I

Yasuke (2021) Review – A Mediocre Story About A Really Cool Dude

I went into Yasuke a bit weary but excited. I liked the last Netflix Original, DOTA: Blood of the Dragon despite its flaws, and was hoping Yasuke would have at the very least the same level of quality. Unfortunately, instead of the Champloo inspired thrill ride I was hoping for, I instead got a frustratingly mediocre fantasy action show that fails to make use of … Continue reading Yasuke (2021) Review – A Mediocre Story About A Really Cool Dude

Mild Spoilers Ahead It’s been a while since the last Netflix video game adaptation I watched (for reference, Castlevania S3 came out RIGHT before this whole COVID thing kicked off.

Overview DOTA: Dragon’s … Continue reading DOTA: Dragon’s Blood Review – A Bloody, If Basic, Good Time

Netflix Movie Review – Next Gen Is Just Better Big Hero 6

Okay, hear me out. First of all, I have a mixed opinion of Big Hero 6. I liked it a LOT, and Baymax is one of the most adorable characters to come out in recent memory, but the story itself wasn’t that good, in my opinion. It was a pretty typical movie that got carried hard by it’s stellar character design and interesting setting of … Continue reading Netflix Movie Review – Next Gen Is Just Better Big Hero 6
