My Generation (2019)

This holiday movie serves as the prequel to the TV series The Really Loud House.

Omaha reminds us of what it can feel like to look at old family photographs.  You sit with the bittersweetness, allowing it to wash over you; not drowning in it, but certainly affected by it. 

Another story focuses on the bond between a young man and a shelter dog in this Netflix drama film.

‘Barbie’ is an entertaining, meaningful piece of filmmaking with a heartfelt message.

I write for a diversity-focused film review blog, so I’ll be honest: I really wanted to like Pretty Lethal. Starring Maddie Ziegler, Lana Condor, Iris Apatow, Avantika, and Millicent Simmonds, Amazon Prime’s new thriller seemed like it would be a girl power movie about dancers with a horror action twist. Sort of a Suspiria for teens. But with shallow and unlikeable characters, a confusing plot, an overreliance on violence, and cringey dialogue, any fun the movie started out with was quickly lost. What was left was a faint echo of greater horror movies about dancers made before. 

The film may be a thriller, but I wasn’t thrilled by it. If anything, I was bored and annoyed.
