(Review) Men in Black: International
Men in Black: International. Now I remember liking the original Men in Black films but I don’t know if I’d go so far as to say they’re good. I think we often have rose-colored glasses for franchises that meant a lot to … Continue reading
Review: Long Shot (2019)
Long Shot. I’ve been in the mood for a solid comedy recently, amidst all the huge summer blockbusters arriving early to the party. Seth Rogen is a little hit or miss for me but I was excited to see what … Continue reading

(Review) Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Gindelwald
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald The Harry Potter franchise is a little tough to get into at this point, so if you’re not already onboard, this is definitely not the place to hop on. With eight entries in the … Continue reading
