The Battle of Algiers isn’t your run-of-the-mill war movie. It doesn’t ask you to sit back, watch the explosions, and cheer for the heroes. Instead, it’s a film that pulls you into the thick of things, makes you squirm a bit, and doesn’t let you walk away with easy answers. It’s about the Algerian struggle…
It’s not every day you come across a film as captivating as Spirited Away. When I first watched it, I was blown away by how easily it draws you into a world so unlike anything you’ve ever seen. The story—a young girl named Chihiro being thrown into this strange, magical world where spirits, talking frogs,…
Let’s just say it: Duck Soup is a mess — a brilliant, chaotic, nonsensical mess that wraps its insanity around the viewer like a circus tent spun in a tornado. There’s really no way to describe this film by the Marx Brothers without admitting that it seems, at first glance, to be a complete and…
Some films have this uncanny way of reaching into the deep places of your heart without you realizing it — they draw out your own half-buried memories and present them back to you, dressed in a different story. That’s what Lady Bird feels like. From the very first scene, with the dramatic leap out of…
There’s a distinct kind of story that sneaks up on you — the kind that doesn’t just tell you about life, but makes you feel it reverberating in your bones. Past Lives is one of those films. It’s not flashy or dramatic; it doesn’t offer easy resolutions or grand gestures. What it does is far…

It’s more than just a movie—it’s an experience that sweeps you away with the force of a prairie wind, depositing…

This is the realm that Mank brings to life, but don’t be fooled by the nostalgic allure of black-and-white frames or the sparkle of old Hollywood’s Golden Age. David Fincher’s Mank is no ordinary film, nor is it just…
Have you ever wondered what it would look like if people just kept going despite all the barriers stacked against them? The documentary The Bending Arc, directed by Kief Davidson and Pedro Kos, digs deep into that very idea—showing how ordinary individuals, through sheer commitment and a belief in human dignity, can slowly, steadily tilt…
You don’t stumble upon a film like Four Daughters every day. It isn’t merely a documentary, nor is it purely a work of fiction. It’s a blend of personal testimony and reenactment, a unique approach that takes you on a deeply emotional and thought-provoking journey. But from a Christian lens, this film evokes much more…
There’s something undeniably magnetic about Knock Down the House—a documentary that’s less about politics and more about persistence, grit, and the raw power of a united community.
