Women can have it all! Right?! A review of HBOMax’s “Expecting Amy”
I didn’t love Expecting Amy, the mini-series following Amy Schumer’s pregnancy, but it brought up a lot of great unspoken side-effects of working and growing a human in America.

Bahtiyar is doing his military service in a barracks with fairly comfortable conditions. One day, he falls in love at first sight with a woman named Mihriban whom he sees at the fountain and wants to marry her. Mihriban also has feelings for Bahtiyar, but he is not her only suitor. Colonel Rıza also intends to ask her father for Mihriban's hand in marriage. Moreover, Mihriban's father is more than willing to give his daughter to Colonel Rıza. Upon hearing this, Bahtiyar steals the commander's uniform and introduces himself to Mihriban's father as Colonel Bahtiyar. However, when Rıza arrives at the scene, things get complicated, and the two men, who are both in love with the same woman, challenge each other. Karaman Pasha is coming to inspect the barracks, and both men intend to go with him to ask for Mihriban's hand in marriage.

Not every film can make a shopping mall feel both magical and menacing, but Forbidden Fruits challenges that.
In Saudi Arabia, a little girl (Wadjda) is told she can't have a bike because she's a girl. Wadjda struggles to obtain a bicycle to race her friend, Abdullah, due to the gender inequality and cultural norms of Saudi Arabia.
Severance is about breaking down facades and confronting old models that were once frameworks of our lives. The somewhat subtle message to me is it’s never too late to fall in love, no matter your insecurities.
This horror movie combines elements of horror and babysitting with Black representation.
