Better Man Movie Review
Musical biopics continue to be popular in modern cinema with artists like Amy Winehouse and Bob Marley making their way to the silver screen. Better Man marks the turn of Robbie Williams with the help of Michael Gracey and his production crew. It may not rank at the top of the pile, but it’s still a very enjoyable musical.

What If...? Season 3
The first two seasons of What If…? Were really hit or miss. We got some interesting original characters and some fun stories but for the most part What If…? Is not living up to what it is meant for. We got like 1000 Captain Carter episodes for absolutely no reason and there have been very little actual exploration of all the possibilities of the Marvel Universe. Also Marvel has just so many characters and for some reason the writers of What If…? Seem to be completely fixated on the same 5 characters. I really hope that season 3 does a better job, but to be completely honest I don’t have a lot of confidence.

The Subtle Power of Persuasion: Can a Woman Make a Man Do Whatever She Wants?
Diana was a woman who believed in the subtle power of persuasion. She didn’t see relationships as a battlefield of control but rather a dance of influence, where a shared rhythm could lead to mutual understanding. She often joked with her friends about the age-old question: “Can a woman really make a man do whatever she wants?” Most of them laughed, calling it an impossible feat, but Diana knew better.

Flight Risk Ending Explained
Mel Gibson's 2025 thriller Flight Risk ends with a significant plot surprise and a memorable character death. Gibson is back to helm his first motion picture since Hacksaw Ridge, which won an Oscar in 2013. With a 22% Rotten Tomatoes rating, Flight Risk isn't likely to win any Oscars, but it does have a number of twists and turns that make for some exciting scenes. In addition to four-time Emmy nominee Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey) and That '70s Show alumnus Topher Grace, the cast of Flight Risk is remarkable and includes two-time Oscar contender Mark Wahlberg and his half-shaved head.
