The film is a powerful narrative encompassing a theme that many people can identify with.
When diverse representation is featured on-screen, it oftentimes comes with strings attached that undermine the message they were trying to send. This can be attributed to the fact that behind-the-screen, the industry primarily does not reflect the breadth of diverse difference that is present in daily life. That’s why when something as powerful and authentic as Minari comes along, it is both incredibly wonderful and needs a large audience to witness it.

"Peter Pan & Wendy" is a diverse fantasy brought to life and an adventure for all ages.
The film may be a thriller, but I wasn’t thrilled by it. If anything, I was bored and annoyed.
