It: Chapter Two Review: An Ambitious, Worthwhile Sequel
This is ambitious horror filmmaking, and in a lot of ways, I fully admire its ambitions. For me, the film’s sloppiness defines its overall quality.
Crystal Lake Girls (2026)
When young, hot, nubile Madison agrees to spend the summer at the “Crystal Lake Retreat”, a new cozy institution for troubled young women instead of prison, she thinks her troubles are over. Girl fights and lecherous guards? No problem. However, for poor Madison, that is when the real trouble begins as this summer marks the 30th Anniversary of Jason’s murderous killing spree on Friday the 13th. Now Madison is locked in with seven other women as they are hunted by a serial killer known only as “the President”, several guards who are pigs, one head honcho who is a hottie and a couple of yahoos for the law. Can she survive or will she become another victim?

The Rise of Skywalker, the Fall of Rey
It only seems to prove that when the company had their backs against the wall and needed an all pleasing, generic movie that had to make up for The Last Jedi, they chose to sacrifice almost everything that made their main protagonist interesting and that made her stand out as the strong female character that a generation of young movie goers was supposed to look up to. Instead, we were left with a Rey that was so much less than she could have been. And I guess that’s the real story of Rey and The Rise of Skywalker; they could have been so much more, but they were just more of the same.
