My Review of "The Spy Who Dumped Me"
The Spy Who Dumped me is a comedy that came out in 2018. It's got a lot of clever moments that I wished they would push more for but ultimately I found that the movie was a little uneven. That's not to say that you can't have some variety in a movie, it's just that some of it is too out of place.

My Review of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air Reunion"
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air Reunion is an HBO exclusive that came out of nowhere. It has a lot of interesting stories that even the most hardcore of Fresh Prince fans would want to hear about. Hearing it from the horses mouth gives this episode a lot more weight and quashes rumors. It's an almost 2 hour episode that feels like it was just a half hour show.

Bloodlines by Chris Wraight
Released under the Black Libraries' Warhammer Crime division, Bloodlines by Chris Wraight is an absolute masterpiece of the genre. Something I find incredibly difficult about writing a crime story in the Warhammer universe is that, by its very nature, the Imperium is a heartless, crime-filled expanse. Why would this make things challenging? Well, because when almost every novel released is practically a crime novel, writing something that warrants separation into its own subcategory needs to be pretty impressive or risk being lost in the crowd.

The Sound of the Best Musical
The Sound of Music is the best musical because it's actually about music. So I don’t really like musicals that much. I have a hard time getting over the whole, characters randomly bursting into song for no reason, thing. But The Sound of Music does something really interesting with the music that I think justifies the genre more than any other movie musical.

Mel Gibson Is a Gun-Toting Santa Claus in ‘Fatman’
Fatman is an R-rated action movie starring Mel Gibson as Santa Claus… I can already feel many people shaking their heads. But, if you’re more like me, you might think this has the potential to be one of the most entertaining films of the year.

Review of ‘This Is Not a Ghost Story’
Rife with dark humor and chilling twists, This Is Not a Ghost Story is American Horror Story meets There's Someone Inside Your House. It will have readers flipping back to the very first page after the shocking finale. I am not welcome. Somehow I know that. Something doesn't want me here. Daffodil Franklin has plans for a quiet summer before her freshman year at college, and luckily, she's found the job that can give her just that: housesitting a mansion for a wealthy couple. But as the summer progresses and shadows lengthen, Daffodil comes to realize the house is more than it appears. The spacious home seems to close in on her, and as she takes the long road into town, she feels eyes on her the entire way, and something tugging her back. What Daffodil doesn't yet realize is that her job comes with a steep price. The house has a long-ago grudge it needs to settle . . . and Daffodil is the key to settling it.

My Thoughts on Darling in the Franxx
Alright, I need to add a quick little note before I actually share my thoughts on this one: I was heavily advised to NOT watch the full series and was given a specific stopping point. After learning how the show ends... I highly recommend any new watchers stop at episode 15 (where I personally think it should've ended), though you COULD stop at episode 20/21 if you're brave enough.
