Day Shift Review
A vampire movie with a lot of gore and comedy and an open tone. I must say that the film before its release did not call my attention at all. I talked about this in the article Netflix movie releases in 2022. This was my evaluation:

I Am Not Your Negro Review
The first thing to do before watching the brave documentary film I'm Not Your Black is to ask yourself a question: why does a film like this still exist on the billboard today? One would like to think that in 2017 it would not really be necessary to review the problems that plagued humanity fifty, one hundred, two hundred years ago . Except for those that are related to indefensible concepts and that many of us considered –or wanted to consider– anachronistic, such as intolerance, racism, discrimination. But then comes Raoul Peck , a Haitian man, black, political scientist and sympathizer of the left to stamp a cake of reality on our faces and rip us out of our ridiculous intellectual onanism.

Rakuten Viki Takes the Crown
It’s a Friday evening. You have shut down the work computer for the weekend, taken that much needed walk with the dog outside, planned your house cleaning and stocking schedule for the weekend and even managed to fit in 15 extra minutes of mindfulness with some meditation. Champ! With the load of the week behind you and tomorrow’s troubles to be taken care of tomorrow only, it’s right about time to unwind with some drama, specifically a K-Drama or C-Drama. Of course, there are tons of sites to watch your preferred drama from, paid and unpaid, which can also be a headache if you are uncertain what to do when spoilt for choice. Depending on how important picture quality, sound, subtitle and translation quality and the possibility of picking up a bug are to you, you can find a site to quench the thirst for a thrilling or ‘normal’ feelgood C-Drama or K-Drama. Of these sites, I have found Netflix, which was my first and original source of K-Drama, and Rakuten Viki to be the least problematic and most helpful. Bothe have strengths and weaknesses that set them apart and at the end of the day, with all these considered, here are reasons why I pick Rakuten Viki over Netflix many times over for an enjoyable Asian drama viewing experience. The third reasons tops them all.

'The Last Jedi' Retrospective: How To Fix The Most Divisive 'Star Wars' Film
I don't hate The Last Jedi. It's far from a perfect film, but I was happy with a lot of the decisions that seemed to anger many Star Wars fans - particularly those regarding Luke Skywalker. However, before I continue, I do feel I should clarify one thing...

The Riddler Retrospective
With the release of The Batman, people are prone to compare previous films. One film has a better Batman but a worse Bruce Wayne. Another has a better Penguin but a weaker Catwoman. These are the arguments one will make and or can find. It is hard not to engage in this sentiment. We live in a fan-devoted, overly-competitive, and dare I say, an ideological state. Liking one version of a character to another makes one an enemy/outsider to some fans.

Mermaid Magic - Previewing The Little Mermaid At D23
The D23 Expo is about to begin, providing Disney fans with a preview of their 2023 blockbusters. One of the most prominent Disney blockbusters being released next year is a live-action adaptation of their 1989 classic The Little Mermaid, which started Disney’s “Renaissance” period of the 1990s. The idea of a live-action take on The Little Mermaid was first announced in Summer 2016, after Beauty and the Beast had finished filming, but before the likes of Aladdin and The Lion King went into production.* After a few years stuck in development, the project truly captured mainstream attention when R&B Rising Star Halle Bailey was cast as Ariel in July 2019, creating a “culture war” over the decision to cast an African-American performer as a traditionally white Disney Princess. (More positively, it led to commentators highlighting the history of African and Caribbean mermaids, providing Mermaid enthusiasts with even more fascinating stories). Over the second half of 2019, the rest of the cast was announced, with British actor Jonah Hauer-King playing Prince Eric, Javier Bardem as King Triton and Melissa McCartney getting to explore her mean side as the scheming Sea Witch Ursula. Hamilton star Daveed Diggs will voice Ariel’s iconic crab sidekick Sebastian, with Ariel’s other animal friends being voiced by performers who also had leading roles in recent Disney Animated hits - Jacob Tremblay (Luca) was cast as Flounder and Awkwafina (Raya and the Last Dragon) signed on to voice a reworked version of the eccentric Scuttle. With most of Disney’s live-action remakes breaking box-office records, The Little Mermaid looked set to bring even more money for the company.

Top Gun: Maverick and Star Wars
Never in my life have I been taken out of a movie more than with the Princess Leia space scene from The Last Jedi. I was fully aware of the feeling of movie theatre seat against my body. And because I couldn’t be further from invested in the actual movie, more and more tiny details started to bother me. This escalated until literally every tiny thing that happened in this movie just felt like the worst thing ever. And don’t worry, I’m not going to just list things I don’t like about The Last Jedi. But I do wanna talk about this specific shot.
