IF (2024) - MOVIE REVIEW
Hey everyone, John Krasinski's latest film 'IF' has hit theaters globally! I absolutely LOVED his two 'A Quiet Place' films and I love that, instead of continuing in his sandbox, he Krasinski decided to do something wildly different for his next film: what he has called a film for his kids.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes - MOVIE REVIEW
Hey everyone, "what a wonderful day!" Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, one of my most anticipated movies of the year, has now hit theaters! I absolutely loved the previous trilogy, particular the latter two films directed by Matt Reeves (who went on to direct The Batman).

Hey everyone, the day so many of us have been long-anticipating has finally arrived! James Gunn has dropped the first FULL LOOK at David Corenswet's Superman suit in the upcoming Superman film (formerly known as Superman: Legacy). This is EASILY my most anticipated upcoming movie because of how much I ADORE all of James Gunn's comic book films and how much Superman, as a character and role model, has meant to me ever since I was a child. In this episode, I break down some details in the suit that have been HEAVILY debated among fans, my thoughts on them and how the suit stacks up against previous theatrical interpretations!

The Fall Guy (2024) - MOVIE REVIEW
Hello everybody, welcome to a (for those of you in the US, slightly early) review of the new Ryan Gosling & Emily Blunt film: The Fall Guy. This was easily one of my most anticipated films of the year; not because I watched the original 80s TV show but because I just loved the concept of creating a love letter to stuntmen, the unsung heroes of Hollywood, in an action comedy that's also being directed by a former stuntman. Plus, Ryan Gosling, maybe the most charismatic actor of this generation, was set to star! So... did The Fall Guy meet my lofty expectations or is this a bit of a generic action flick? Find out in this review!

Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver - MOVIE REVIEW
Hey everyone, Zack Snyder is back with the second part of his 'Rebel Moon Epic' - The Scargiver. This film is intended to close out the story set up in Part One and, apparently, set up four other sequels or something (WHY???). As someone who enjoyed Part One enough and thought there was potential for this universe, Part Two quickly drained all the hope I had for this 'franchise'. Find out why in this SPOILER-FREE review!
