“Brooklyn Nine-Nine” is Sitcom Diversity Done Right
This side-splitting workplace comedy features a diverse cast and tackles challenging social issues. Other sitcoms should take note.


The eighth entry in the franchise, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, is a visceral, high-octane thrill ride and easily one of the most ambitious action films in recent memory. With a jaw-dropping budget of $400 million, this film is not just a movie, it’s a stunt-fueled cinematic experience designed around one man’s relentless passion for pushing physical limits: Tom Cruise.

Ethan Hunt and team continue their search for the terrifying AI known as the Entity — which has infiltrated intelligence networks all over the globe — with the world's governments and a mysterious ghost from Hunt's past on their trail. Joined by new allies and armed with the means to shut the Entity down for good, Hunt is in a race against time to prevent the world as we know it from changing forever.

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.
Dramatic Horror!!! Wait, what?? Did you say "dramatic horror"?? IS there such a thing?? I mean, TRULY. Well, if San Francisco-based, Pakistani-born independent filmmaker Dr. Hassan Zee and this film critic have anything to say about it, there IS such a beast as experienced through the director's newest feature film set to officially debut October 4th in the City by the Bay. Folks, indie film will always be a bastion of experimentation and originality, and this film for me fits that bill.
