At first it felt like a typical school trip movie. Children, group photo, a little forced enthusiasm, a little awkward posing in front of historical plaques—as if they had come to complete a checklist. Everything seemed safe. Predictable. Like a classroom slideshow, just a little more polished. Then something moved slowly. Not loud. Absolutely quiet….
Alto Knights pre-release review This is, and honestly, the film seems quite deep. Set in the mafia world of the 1950s, where two Italian American mafia bosses – Vito Genovese and Frank Costello – are running their own world. The film is based on a true story, where Genovese tried to kill Costello in 1957,…
September 5 is a very intense and emotionally loaded film, shown from the perspective of the ABC sports crew covering the hostage situation of Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics in 1972. The film is a powerful reminder of how we view human suffering and deal with that pain. It especially highlights the moment when…
If there’s a single word that comes to mind when reflecting on the One Hundred Years of Solitude TV adaptation, it’s “ambitious.” Adapting Gabriel García Márquez’s magnum opus is not for the faint of heart. Márquez himself thought it couldn’t—and probably shouldn’t—be done. His novel doesn’t just tell a story; it creates an entire world,…
There’s a saying about certain years feeling like a hinge — a moment where the world tilts and history moves with unmistakable momentum. For music, 1971 was one of those hinges.

Prehistoric Planet, with its jaw-dropping visuals and immersive storytelling, takes us on a journey back in time, offering a…
Media, in all its vivid forms, serves as a reflection, a refraction, and sometimes a distortion of who we are as people. Enter Visible: Out on Television, a five-part docuseries that takes us on a journey through seven decades of LGBTQ representation in television. It’s not just a history lesson; it’s a kaleidoscope of triumphs,…
If you were to think about turning a video game into a movie, chances are, Tetris wouldn’t immediately spring to mind. It’s a simple game—falling blocks, fitting shapes, and racking up points. But what Jon S. Baird has accomplished in his cinematic take on the beloved game is less about blocks and more about the…
There’s something deeply stirring about a ship cutting through endless ocean waves, surrounded by nothing but sky and sea. It’s a metaphor as old as storytelling itself: man versus nature, man versus enemy, and man versus himself. Greyhound, adapted from C.S. Forester’s The Good Shepherd and brought to life by Tom Hanks, leans into this…
When Ridley Scott takes on a subject, he doesn’t tiptoe into the shallow end; he plunges headlong into the depths, unearthing every possible contradiction, ambition, and absurdity.
