Glass onion
Movies
Sequel to Knives Out. It must be very difficult to make a good detective movie today, since there has already been so many such movies and the entire point of a detective movie is in the suspense. If the audience gets even so much as a clue of how the mystery is resolved the entire movie gets spoile . . . Read more
The French Dispatch
Movies
Going in, I was quite skeptical of this movie. I had seen the trailer and it looked pretentious. There were a hundred different big named actors in a hundred-min-long movie. It seemed too fake to be good. It did not help that the theater I was in was bad with a small, awkwardly placed screen, seats . . . Read more
DON'T PANIC.

"The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't." Rereading the five books in The Hitchhiker’s Guide trilogy is the best self-care I’ve done throughout the pandemic.

Like all other Wes Anderson movies, Isle of Dogs makes no pretense of being serious or dark in any way. At the very sta . . . Read more
Paddington 2

I haven’t seen Paddington, and frankly the only reason I decided to watch Paddington 2 is because of it’s insanely high ratings on Rotten Tomatoes. The ratings are not exaggerated. This is a beautifully made movie, everything about this movie is good. I’ll only say this, watching t . . . Read more
Jumanji
Movies
Goo watch Jumanji. I’ve now become a fan of Kevin Hart after watching this movie. There is no sarcasm, no deadpan humor, nothing vulgar, nothing GTA-Hangover style, nobody ever makes fun of anybody else, all the humor is benignly self-deprecating. It’s a heartwarming, wholesome, adventur . . . Read more
