I’ll be honest right up front: I walked into Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery with expectations so low they were practically in the church basement. I’d watched the previous Knives Out films and, while they were clever enough, they never quite knocked my socks off. So this one, now streaming on Netflix,Continue reading “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025), Netflix : Movie Review”

Well, The Holdovers is one of those films you click on when you’re feeling adventurous but not in the mood to risk two hours of your life on a Marvel sequel. You start it with the emotional distance of a person watching someone else assemble IKEA furniture. And then—somehow, somewhere—you’re sucked in.

After the Hunt — A Movie Review for People Who Thought They Were Smarter Than They Are
There are two reasons to press play on After the Hunt, currently sitting on Amazon Prime like a moody cat that may or may not scratch you: Julia Roberts and Andrew Garfield.

Selling the OC – Season 4 Review : A Dramatic Detox or a Fresh-Brewed Mess?
If we’re being honest, I started Season 4 of Selling the OC mainly because I needed closure on the world’s longest-running “Are they? Aren’t they? Will they?

It’s like the producers have a secret button labelled “EXTEND TENSION” and they keep slapping it like it owesContinue reading “Selling the OC – Season 4 Review : A Dramatic Detox or a Fresh-Brewed Mess?”
Review: The Ex-Wife Season 1 — Love, Lies, and a Whole Lot of Ex-tra Drama
Streaming on Amazon Prime Let’s start with the title — The Ex-Wife. Simple, sharp, and oh-so-suggestive. Because let’s be honest — if there’s one thing people love more than falling in love, it’s watching other people’s relationships fall apart. Add a messy triangle (or, in this case, something more like a Bermuda Triangle of emotions),Continue reading “Review: The Ex-Wife Season 1 — Love, Lies, and a Whole Lot of Ex-tra Drama”
B*****ds of Bollywood Review
I’ll be honest — B*****ds of Bollywood wasn’t something I was dying to watch. In fact, when I first heard about it — the directorial debut of a star kid— I mentally filed it under Yet Another Nepo Experiment and moved on with my life. But as fate (and two overly persuasive friends) would haveContinue reading “B*****ds of Bollywood Review”

I See You : Netflix Movie Review
There are few movies that manage to do what I See You does: build suspense so patiently, with so many layers, that by the time the final twist hits, you’re both stunned and admiring how every earlier scene was bait, misdirection, or subtle foreshadowing. It’s not flashy horror, it’s not jump-scare overload — instead itContinue reading “I See You : Netflix Movie Review”
