Movie and TV show reviews

As a movie enthusiast, I was utterly captivated by “Starman.” This documentary on space exploration stirs something deep within, reminiscent of that wide-eyed wonder you felt as a child gazing at the stars. It’s like an intergalactic journey for your mind, a transcendental experience that leaves you spellbound.

Robert Stone, the mastermind behind this cosmic marvel, crafted what I believe to be the most exceptional documentary about the American space program – “Chasing the Moon,” aired on PBS in 2019. This film delicately unraveled the story of NASA’s creation, its purpose, and how it wasn’t destined but built by human hands. In many ways, “Starman” could be seen as its radiant successor.

As a director, Robert Stone taps into the raw power of space to ignite our dreams. He rekindles our connection to the essence of marvel, that feeling of being utterly amazed, filled with a kind of burning curiosity. “Starman” strips away our jaded perspective to fill us with the same awe we felt when space exploration was truly extraordinary.

It’s fair to conclude that those attending SXSW on March 8, who were the first to view the documentary on a large screen, were profoundly impressed, somewhat apprehensive, but certainly not eager to try out the daring stunts featured in the film about parkour team Storror.

This coming Sunday, fans will get to witness Baltz’s character, BJ (husband of Judy Gemstone), displaying his passion for pole dancing as part of the new season.

Storm, being a dedicated fan of wrestling throughout her life and an active competitor in the sport, expressed her profound respect for embodying an early women’s wrestling trailblazer like Mortensen. “It was incredibly surreal for me,” she said. “Clara was a real person at one point, and I felt like there was a striking similarity between us. I never realized I looked so good in yellow.

During an interview with Empire, Cameron explained that they produced more content than needed for “The Way of Water,” which led them to transfer some of the story originally intended for that film into its subsequent installment, titled “Fire and Ash.

The trailer is as full of monsters and violence as Season 1 was — with a lot more fire.

In the fresh Onyx Collective comedy, the central characters are Pakistani American brothers Mir (Asif Ali) and Raj (Saagar Shaikh). However, these two would be utterly lost without Lucky, portrayed by Poorna Jagannathan. Jagannathan effortlessly outshines in every appearance she makes, primarily due to her strong presence and impeccable comic delivery — yet, credit is also owed to her wardrobe for significantly contributing to her impactful performances.

Currently featured in director Paul W.S. Anderson’s post-apocalyptic feudal Western film titled “In the Lost Lands,” Bautista delivers a captivating performance as a traditional hero: a gun-wielding, royal-employed figure in the mistrustful and solitary style of classic spaghetti Western characters. The role was a delight for the actor to take on.

In my perspective as a movie reviewer, I found myself captivated by the premiere of “Seen & Heard,” a series that delves into the intriguing history of Hollywood’s relationship with Black audiences. The first episode, skillfully guided by Rotten Tomatoes’ Jacqueline Coley, sheds light on a troubling pattern: studios exploiting the presence and support of Black communities, only to discard them when it suited their convenience.

As I watched this documentary unfold, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of disbelief, as if uncovering a hidden conspiracy. However, what struck me most was how the production process of “Seen & Heard” served as a stark reminder of how deeply rooted and pervasive this trend truly is. The documentary, masterfully crafted by Rae, serves as an essential watch for anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics between Hollywood and Black audiences.

Take a look, I’ve completed the set – Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, and Wonder Woman,” Zimmer stated. “To be honest, if you’re asking if I might take on some lesser characters, well, it’s likely.” When inquired about any potential collaboration with Marvel, Zimmer admitted they had reached out but he declined the offer.

In this version, I aimed to keep the original meaning and flow while using simpler, more common phrases and rephrasing a few sentences for clarity and easier understanding.
