Review: Onward

Posted on March 6, 2020 by adamryen

Review: Aladdin (2019)

Posted on May 24, 2019 by adamryen

Aladdin. This is going to be a divisive movie, as the original cartoon is beloved by many and it’s going to be near impossible to somehow improve on that. The trailers have been met with hesitation, leading to a rocky … Continue reading →

Review: Mary Poppins Returns

Posted on December 20, 2018 by adamryen

Mary Poppins Returns. Here is a major preface for my review here. Surprisingly, I’ve never seen the original Mary Poppins (gasp) so this review is based on my experience with this movie alone. I have a general idea of the … Continue reading →

Review: Coco (2017)

Posted on November 30, 2017 by adamryen

Coco. I have a soft spot for Pixar films, as they’ve managed to consistently knock it out of the park (aside from a few misses like The Good Dinosaur). With Coco, they have to walk a fine line, of telling … Continue reading →
