Movie and TV show reviews

In a nutshell, the comedies he produced in the past are nothing short of legendary, and he continues to produce outstanding content today. For instance, his latest documentary, “Will & Harper“, which follows him and his transgender friend, Harper Steele, on a road trip, is so moving that even the trailer brought tears to some viewers’ eyes. Therefore, it’s safe to say that I not only appreciate Ferrell’s acting but find it more than enjoyable. In fact, while I enjoy most of his work, I must admit that some of his voice-overs, like in “Despicable Me 4“, could use a bit more polish.

First Reaction – Lost in Starlight is a beautiful love story.

In my perspective as a cinephile, I recently watched an exhilarating post-apocalyptic movie that offers a unique blend of action, mystery, and humor. The protagonist is Gear, a shrewd junk dealer who leads a dual life as a daring thief. This intriguing character forms an unlikely alliance with Qu-0213, a complex robot endowed with multiple personalities, and Shirokuma, a polar bear with a penchant for gambling. Together, they make quite the team of elite thieves-for-hire.

However, their lives take a dramatic turn when they stumble upon a mysterious girl, setting them on a collision course with their society’s powerful hierarchy. The film is a rollercoaster ride of emotions and suspense that keeps you at the edge of your seat until the very end. If you’re in search of an engaging post-apocalyptic adventure, this movie is definitely worth a watch!

After the genre-bending film “After This Death,” which debuted at the Berlinale just a few months ago, Castro’s third feature takes us back to the dreamy, sensual world reminiscent of his 2019 debut “End of the Century.” Unlike its predecessor, this work is lighter and more playful, fitting for a narrative that focuses on fleeting physical connections rather than existential ponderings over an extended period. Castro’s empathetic, non-judgmental perspective on young, passionate interactions adds a refreshing touch in today’s largely sexless era, even in arthouse and LGBT cinema. Strand Releasing has already acquired the North American distribution rights for this potential future queer cult classic.

In the midst of striving for authenticity, one obvious and intentional inaccuracy remains conspicuous: the type of enemy aircraft portrayed. The streamlined, black fighters that Maverick and his comrades engage are popularly known as “MiG-28s.” However, there is no such plane in reality. This change wasn’t a mistake or carelessness on the part of the filmmakers. Instead, it was a thoughtful, imaginative, and practical choice that, despite being nearly 40 years old, can now be seen not as an error, but as a potent element that significantly amplified Top Gun’s visual impact, narrative flexibility, and ultimately, its legendary status.

Carrie Bradshaw’s return comes with — what else? — complications.

Two standout episodes, “Mystery Spot” and “Changing Channels,” share a common thread by placing Sam and Dean in analogous predicaments: “Mystery Spot” features a time loop that’s both absurd and heart-wrenching, while “Changing Channels” has them bouncing between various TV shows. These episodes are so amusing that it could be argued the series found its funniest moment not once but twice. However, there’s an earlier episode that surpasses both in terms of significance, and it revolves around the same character. It warrants equal recognition.

Cowell discussed with People how ‘America’s Got Talent’ secured its initial series order many years back, and he admitted to a lie that ultimately proved beneficial. He disclosed:

The news emerged during Sony Music Vision’s presentation in Hollywood, where they showcased a variety of music-based film projects they are working on. Among those present to discuss their projects was Kim, who talked about her movie based on Lisa’s life. Also present were directors like Baz Luhrmann, who elaborated on his Elvis Presley documentary which is currently in the rough-cut stage, and Frank Marshall, who shared a brief preview of his Barbra Streisand documentary that’s still in progress.
