Drive-Away Dolls 2024
This movie is a bit insulting because it thinks it can get away with exploring the road movie genre by purely adding a gay/lesbian lens. The characters are not developed at all and the humor leaves much to be desired. The crime/chase element in the script is also forced beyond belief; I’m surprised this even got green-lit. Tragedy of Macbeth was too self-serious and Drive-Away Dolls is too simplistic in its kookiness. It’s almost like if these two made films together, they’d strike the perfect balance. Oh wait…!

Their individualism is gone and all you hear is the screenwriter click-clacking away about their message. I just know that watching this movie is probably Kanye’s idea of hell. It’s also peak irony that this was made by a man who didn’t show tolerance for his peers when it really mattered.

New things that we dislike about each other, but it doesn’t erase our bond. This metaphor is getting ridiculous but I truly believe certain…

Alien: Romulus 2024
The chilling air of an old, abandoned space station fills the room…guttural screeches masked by the clanks and creaks of supposedly dead machinery…what else is alive in this place? The atmosphere in Alien Romulus is impeccable and despite rehashing elements from the franchise’s history, the film remains fresh and finds new ways to make your heart race. Despite all the terror, there are moments of beauty with how space is depicted. The isolation is really felt with how disconnected most…
