Shang-Chi: Mental Health and Healing, Marvel Universe, and Awkwafina Humor
Suppressed intergenerational family trauma and healing, warm welcome to the Marvel Cinematic Universe team, and Awkwafina's humor really make this film the real MVP.
Good Idea (2022)
An aspiring entrepreneur hires two interns to help him start his online business, if only they could figure out what the company does. “Good Idea,” directed by Marissa Losoya, is a deadpan satire on start-up culture, and a slow-burn character study of a delusional, wannabe boss. The one-man business is Dixon’s attempt to prove his worth to the world, but it’s not clear what the business even is, or what it requires of its two new interns, Diane and Rob.

"First Girl I Loved": A Well-Intended but Ultimately Flawed Story of Identity
Despite its glaring flaws, First Girl I Loved is not entirely undeserving of a watch. For people who can handle the more difficult aspects of the story and graphic scenes, it is worth looking into. It’s not a film worthy of rewatch, but it may still resonate somewhat with those who need a story like this. It is a genuine, if flimsy attempt at a coming-of-age tale. Were the film to be directed by someone with experiences more similar to Anne, it would likely be more powerful--as it is, it feels like a man’s perspective of what it means to come to terms with your identity as a lesbian.
