Beckett (2021) Movie Review
“Beckett” is a film that aspires to be a tense, paranoid thriller in the vein of classic 1970s films like “The Parallax View” and “Three Days of the Condor”. However, it fails to live up to this ambition, instead delivering an uninspiring and unengaging story about an American tourist named Beckett, played by John David Washington, who finds himself in a dangerous situation in Greece after a car accident kills his girlfriend and leaves him injured. The film's attempt to combine international politics, corrupt government officials, kidnapping, and last-minute heroics falls flat, resulting in a forgettable movie experience.

Don't Breathe 2 (2021) Movie Review
“Don’t Breathe 2” takes audiences on a wild ride through the unexpected story of Gulf War veteran Norman Nordstrom, who was first introduced in the 2016 original hit film, “Don’t Breathe”. The sequel takes place eight years after the events of the first movie, and this time, the story revolves around Norman’s relationship with a young girl named Phoenix whom he has raised as his own daughter. The film introduces new characters, new twists, and a new location, but it still maintains the thrilling, intense, and darkly humorous atmosphere that made the first film such a success.

Wrath of Man (2021) Movie Review
Guy Ritchie's directorial venture, "Wrath of Man," is a hard-hitting, dark, and brutal crime thriller that showcases Jason Statham at his meanest. The movie is a far cry from Ritchie's previous works, which were characterized by a light-hearted, jumpy, and busy tone. Instead, Ritchie presents a neo-noir film, filled with tough and violent men, with H, the main character, being the darkest of them all. Adapted from the 2004 French film "Le Convoyeur," "Wrath of Man" is a time-shifting crime thriller that keeps the viewers on the edge of their seats with its unpredictable plot twists and turns.

Kinds of Storytelling
So we are starting a new series based on identifying whether projects are character driven or plot driven and what that means. So let's start with character driven stories. Now I have not been shy about my opinion on which kind of storytelling is better, it's character driven stories. They feel more natural and organic and the story never has to be forced.
