La Haine 1995
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
le monde est à nous
La Haine is a certified all-timer. It is excessively violent and profane but makes a piercing point of it. The film’s most prominent theme is that of “the fall”, it starts and ends with a story about a man falling from atop a building, and while he falls, he keeps telling himself “so far, so good” over and over, the narrator tells us that it is not about the fall, but how you land; the…

Maria 2024
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
“To be a possession in a cabinet is not my ambition.”
Maria stars Angelina Jolie as one of the most renowned opera singers in history, Maria Callas. I didn’t know much about Callas when entering the cinema, so I can’t tell you how good a depiction of her it is, but I can tell you that I loved it. I think that the outfits are to die for, and even as an 18 year old man, I would kill to…

The Wild Robot 2024
“I love you.”
Such a beautiful, heartwarming film about parenthood, family and love. Though animated and directed primarily at kids, I’d advise everyone second guessing The Wild Robot to pack it in.

There were times I got chills, there were times I shed…

“I don’t like liars.”
Let’s get straight to the point, Black Bag lacks depth. Its main plot device is ‘Severus’, which is essentially a terrorist device, in short. But it never really expands on that. The question of “why was it created?” is asked, but again, never expanded upon. So the centerpiece of the movie is sort of a mystery, which doesn’t really get you to care that its disappearance has started a micro-war. It covers this up with what…

One of Them Days 2025
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
“You paid the rent, right?”
Genuinely a really comedic, lighthearted exploration into community and friendship, and the lengths people will go to to do what needs to be done. It is inherently funny, Keke Palmer and SZA are excellent in their leading roles, and Katt Williams is a phenomenon as per usual, flawless. While obviously not striving to be anything great, it does a really solid job at nonchalantly making it there with no issue. I don’t think I’ve ever…
