Movie

Oppenheimer Is A Masterpiece
Beautiful but long masterwork teaming with career best from those on screen and off. The story of scientific ambition at odds with realpolitik deserves praise in almost every major category. The masterpiece gets in its' own way, heightening personal dramas that pale in comparison to theo-philisophical implications of nuclear war.

Titan A.E.
Devastating opening with billions dead in the opening scene. Humanity's a lost, wandering species. Terrifying, unstoppable enemy.

Atlantis: The Lost Empire
The perfect movie for young me! 20,000 leagues AND Journey to the Centre of the Earth with steampunk mercenaries, giant monsters, and high-fantasy soft magic? What an amazing idea!

Chit-Chatting About Champions
Hollywood respected Bobby Farrelly displayed stereotypical information targeting intellectual disabilities in the mass distributed feature “Champions”. Headlining Woody Johnson and Kaitlin Olson the routine conversation piece drags on for over two hours using a chit-chatting discussion style. Despite simple level script plot points, the sensitive subject matter is addressed respectfully.

Let's talk about After.
To teenager me, After was my favorite story on Wattpad, but the adult me despises it. I don't recommend anyone young to read it. You have to be careful. Otherwise, you might be indoctrinated into believing that any type of domestic abuse is tolerable. You shouldn't have to change anyone.

Shallow Grave (1995)
Danny Boyle's debut film, starring Ewan McGregor, Christopher Eccleston, Kerry Fox and Keith Allen, raises a morale dilemma. What would you do if you found a suitcase with £1m alongside your dead lodger. I'm guessing it wouldn't be to cut him up and bury him, then fight with each other.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
J.K. Rowling's "Sorcerer's Stone" is a wizarding wonderland. Its charm lies in the fusion of magic and relatability. Yet, it's not without warts. Critics argue its plot relies on clichés, yet its success is enchanting. It sparks lifelong love for fantasy but also teaches that even underdog wizards can conquer.

Eraserhead (1977)
One of the most subversive, strange, but brilliant films about the anxieties of fatherhood. So much to unpack here in David Lynch's black-and-white debut. Although not his finest, the strange baby, otherworldly characters, and deliberately slow pace are interesting glimpses into the techniques and elements that made him so influential.

The Manchurian Candidate
A great remake of a classic film. Liev Shreiber, Denzel Washington, and Meryl Streep team up and make a thriller about mind control intriguing. Shreiber is the to be President and the scenes whilst they have "the dreams" accurately describe a psychosis. It is a must see movie for everyone.

Roman Holiday
Vicariously travel and tour Rome, through the romantic adventures of an American reporter Joe Bradley, Gregory Peck. Serendipitously, Princess Ann, Audrey Hepburn, who fell asleep on a park bench in Rome, meets the American reporter. Reminiscent of the iconic story Sleeping Beauty.

The Fifth Element (Critique)
This sci-fi classic was probably one of the most formative to me in my youth. The style of The Fifth Element strongly resembles French bandes dessinées, which only adds to its charm. Colorful characters, fantastic acting, and a whacky 90's plot make this one of the best sci-fi movies to-date.
