Review: The Lion King (2019)

Posted on July 19, 2019 by adamryen

The Lion King. Disney has a hit or miss track record with these remakes. Luckily, the highlight for me so far as been The Jungle Book, which is directed by Jon Favreau (who also directs The Lion King). So if The Jungle Book … Continue reading →

Review: Late Night (2019)

Posted on June 23, 2019 by adamryen

Late Night. Mindy Kaling hasn’t really carried a film like this before, so I was definitely curious going in. She had ensemble roles in both A Wrinkle in Time and Ocean’s Eight, but carrying a comedy like this as the lead is … Continue reading →
