Despite my very basic knowledge of Pokemon, I honestly enjoyed it. It had Solid world building, great use of CGI and overall color grading of the film was easy on the eyes. It had this beautiful neon noir hint to it. Characters seemed like they came right out of a manga.

Movie Review: The Perfect Date – nothing new but Centineo and Marano are charming together.
“The Perfect Date” offers nothing new as a Romantic Comedy, in fact it bears a lot of similarities with Noah Centineo’s debut “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before”. Yes, Centineo is still charming as the ideal boy next door, here he plays Brooks Rattigan, a middle class high school student aiming to go to Yale. He studies hard, and works hard.

Breakthrough – Movie Review – a timely reminder that miracles do happen.
What I liked best about the Christian Drama based on real life events was that it had a few surprises up its sleeves.

Us Movie Review
Incredible performances from the cast all around. Lupita Nyong’o is a force as she plays a terrified mother protecting her children and a beyond eerie doppelganger which has her transforming her voice, stance and movements, as she glides as if in dance in a room, holding on to golden shears, not afraid to strike her prey. Her transformation is something too terrible to describe.

Escape Room -Fun at the start, gets weird in the end.
A fun B movie you can enjoy with friends, especially if you like these kinds of films. It was amusing to hear your fellow movie goers try to solve the rooms, of course there’s you just sitting down and not getting it, haha so you already know who in your group survives and who doesn’t.
