Voices of Fire (2020)

AMAZING AND HEARTFELT

[10/10 · 21 November 2020]

You will not regret watching this short series. It was so powerful and moving. I cannot explain how inspired I feel.

Normal People (2020)

Best Tragic Show Series in the 20th Century

[10/10 · 18 November 2020]

Bravo! Wow, I think this might be in my top three list of shows to watch. As someone who had been in love, out of love, and broken up with, I could not relate more to Conell and Marianne. I love the complexity of the plot and the nuances of their respective characters. The different life stages they hit and the uncertainty of it all. The ending, in my opinion, is ambivalent and I think that's what makes it a tragedy, in a literary sense. Additionally, I like how resonant and realistic this love story is portrayed. If we know anything about love, authentic love, it is far from perfect.

Circle (II) (2015)

Refreshing and Engaging

[7/10 · 18 September 2020]

While the acting was mediocre, the concept of the movies was stellar. It dives deep into what we as a Western society value. While, the ending was unexpected it felt like a cliffhanger with a lot questions still unanswered. An outstanding film what have answered our questions in a subtle and nuanced way. However, we do not know the purpose behind The Circle. What happens next after you are left standing? Who is behind this experiment?

The Babysitter: Killer Queen (2020)

Terrible

[1/10 · 16 September 2020]

There are no words for how truly despicable this garbage is. It's all mediocre. At one point I wanted to be killed off just like the characters. What utter failure of a movie.

#Alive (2020)

REALLY BAD

[1/10 · 16 September 2020]

I'm sorry but I really had to stop watching after ten minutes. The acting was horrible, the cinematography was horrible, and the editing was sub-par. I literally cringed for the entirety of ten minutes. I got second-hand embarrassment from watching it.

Project Power (2020)

Very Bland Screenwriting

[3/10 · 24 August 2020]

It was awful. It did nothing for me and failed to keep my attention. The only reason I watched was because I wanted to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt's comeback. I expected more. Acting was wonderful on part of the cast, it was just horrible writing.
