Why "The Desolation of Smaug" is the only Hobbit Film Worth Watching
In today’s world, so riddled with chaos amongst people and a pandemic looming over humanity for yet another year, what better way to escape the realm of reality than through the medium of film and down the genre path of fantasy?! Thus, the rabbit hole into J.R.R. Tolkien’s work starts today with The Hobbit – a trilogy preceding The Lord of the Rings trilogy (as some of you may know), yet a trilogy that falls far behind its predecessor, The Lord of the Rings, in almost every way. So today I’m here to share my opinion and some light on why The Desolation of Smaug (the second installment of The Hobbit trilogy), is the only Hobbit worth re-watching, or perhaps even watching – cutting your viewing time down from about nine hours, to three. And to the short attention span folk, you are most welcome!

Movie Review: 'Dear Evan Hansen' Starring Ben Platt
Try-hard is a term used to describe people who desperately want to be accepted by a group of people but their effort renders them pathetic and roundly rejected. Try-hard is an apt description of the new Broadway film adaptation of Dear Evan Hansen. The film starring Ben Platt as the title character, Evan, tries very hard to make you like Evan and identify with him, and feel sorry for his outsider plight. However, the sweaty, pathetic obviousness of the attempt renders it completely unwelcome.

Documentary Review: 'The Village Detective: A Song Cycle'
Filmmaker Bill Morrison and I share a fascination with old movies, specifically those that have been mostly lost to time. His remarkable found footage documentary Dawson City Frozen Time explored the decaying beauty of silent films found buried in a former gold mining outpost. Some of the films were far too gone to be restored while others were remarkably well kept in that frozen tomb. Morrison shared both the decayed and well preserved, edited together to tell the story of Dawson City, a place with a very unique history all its own.

Rate That Determines the Fate
The film is quite possibly the most boundless diversion business in the USA and the entire world. Each nation has its guidelines concerning what movies can be displayed in theaters and confined to specific crowds. In the USA, the reasonableness of films for explicit gatherings of watchers is directed by the MPAA—the Motion Picture Association of America. While its organizer, administrator, and individuals guarantee that they are doing the excellent work of shielding youthful watchers from the unsatisfactory substance, many movie chiefs and experts consider the framework utilized by the MPAA outlandishly severe concerning a few, while at the same time disregarding other significant issues.

Spanglish
James L. Creeks' film Spanglish is an inspiring story retold by a girl through her Princeton school exposition about her mom. The film's fundamental "imagine a scenario in which" could be added as: consider the possibility that a Mexican lady, who doesn't know English, is employed as a house cleaner by a wealthy family, whose individuals can't express an expression of Spanish. There, you have a contention to make a film out of it. The outcome is miscommunication, a significant conflict of societies, and a good parody show.

The Black Arrow
The film's initial scene, "V for Vendetta," assumes the roads of London and portrays Evey being bugged by state hooligans for being out after the time limit. It is now that the crowd is acquainted with the legend V, who saves the day. I realize this film depended on a realistic novel written during the 1980s. However, the initial scene helped me remember the initial stage in Vin Suprynowicz's book, The Black Arrow.

Classic Movie Review: 'Hester Street' Starring Carol Kane
For those who might only know actress Carol Kane from her work on television in the series Taxi or, far more recently, the Netflix comedy, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, you might not be aware that Carol Kane is an Oscar nominee. In 1975, Kane co-starred in the movie Hester Street and her thoughtful, sweet and vulnerable performance as Jewish mother arriving in America at the turn of the 20th Century earned her a nomination for Best Actress. Kane lost out to Louise Fletcher’s daringly dastardly performance as Nurse Ratched in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.

The Tomorrow War (2021)
The cinematography and lighting in this film are par for the course as far as Sci-Fi movies go. There weren’t any shots that I thought stood out, but there weren’t any that were poorly framed. You can see all the characters in their environments, and there is an interesting palette change between the present and the future. The future is more saturated, carrying shades of orange and red, likely reflecting the dystopian and fire nature of the setting. The present is desaturated, coloured with shades of gray and blue. After the climax has concluded the present starts having warmer hues and brighter colours, likely referring to the future now seeming brighter.
