However, the untold adventures and memories of such epic moments in our lives help to make it so important. They are stories that need to be told, stories that deserved to be told.

10 Times When 'Parks & Rec' Was Actually the Worst
I didn't watch Parks & Recreation from the beginning. As a matter of fact, I think I didn't start watching until after season 4 had ended. I don't know why, exactly... I think I was afraid it would be too much like The Office, and I wasn't interested at the time.

The Issue I Have with 'Okja'
Okay, so hear me out, Okja is a good film. I enjoyed the story, the cinematography and direction were excellent, and I enjoyed everyone's performances, the cast was great. However, there is a part of the film that just didn't sit with me well and I needed to write it down so it wouldn't plague my mind and keep me up until the early hours (like last night after watching it).

Speechlessly King Lear
The deterioration of Lear's mind and speech, the psychotic shrieking of his daughters, the destruction of the stage itself: the trajectory of McKellen's King Lear is geared head-on towards anarchy. Every semblance of order is disrupted in an assault on notions of both the anatomical body and the body politic. Sibling rivalries are paralleled against one another, political structures are broken down and the physical body is, shudderingly, torn apart.

Review: 'Sicario 2: Soldado'
This sequel is certainly not one anyone was initially expecting. The first Sicario back in 2015 was a really well-directed crime drama with top performances and some amazing cinematography by Roger Deakins. It was directed by the brilliant Denis Villeneuve, and his style certainly enhanced the viewing experience along with the top performances by Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin, and Benicio Del Toro, who for many people including myself stole the show.
