My Review of "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past"
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past is a romantic comedy that came out back in 2009. Seeing as it's not that long ago, watching this movie will make you realize how fast societal norms have changed in such a short time. There are a ton of antics and phrases that people use in this movie that would not be acceptable today but like many movies of this era you watch them for face value.

To all the boys P.S i still love you.
After the wonderfully love filled movie "To all the boys i've loved before" we were all left squirming in our seats longing to see if there was going to be a sequel, we were not left disappointed, 2 years after the original movie was released in 2018 Netflix brought out the sequel "To all the boys P.S i still love you" in February 2020.

Movie Review: 'Dirt Music' is a Hidden Gem of 2020
There is no reason to deny it, I am a sucker for a romantic melodrama with a great soundtrack. Dirt Music, the new movie from director Gregor Jordan (Ned Kelly) and starring Garrett Hedlund and Kelly McDonald, is exactly that, a terrific romantic melodrama with a wonderful soundtrack of folksy acoustic tracks. I adored every single moment of this movie, even as I could feel the plot mechanics click-click-clicking away.

My Review of "The Perfect Date"
The Perfect Date is probably as cookie cutter as it gets with teen romantic comedies but that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's a pleasant ride that I think Netflix has a sure fire formula for. So if it's not broke why mess around with the recipe? I'm a sucker for some of these movies and this one didn't disappoint.

My Review of "Disclosure"
Disclosure is an interesting documentary as we are getting more and more trans representation in films and TV shows. I was curious why the jump in trans representation has jumped so fast recently when there are other minority groups that aren't quite represented quite as much even though they carry a higher percentage of the population. I was hoping to hear some new perspectives as well.

Normal People: A Timeless and Tender Portrayal of Young Love - But Does it Live Up to the Hype?. Top Story - May 2020.
Based on the best-selling novel by Irish author Sally Rooney, BBC Three’s adaptation of Normal People is a near word for word parallel as it tells the raw and realistic story of Marianne (Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Connell (Paul Mescal). An infatuation started as teens through secret kisses (and that which follows) that would continue to be revived and deepen as their lives persist on crossing paths throughout the years.

Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'The Notebook (2004)
Anybody else get a rapey vibe off of Noah at the beginning of this movie? He just walks up to a complete stranger, who is with her boyfriend, and in a low and vaguely threatening tone is all like "I wanna dance with you." I swear you can hear fucking banjo after that. His next words should be, "I wanna hear you squeal like a piggy." The fact that this girl's friend gets misty over it says she ain't that much of a friend. More like the kind of friend who you'd ask to watch your drink, but would immediately hands it to the seediest guy at the bar.
