Grief, Fate, and Destiny in 'Wolf Like Me'
'Wolf Like Me' works if you want a show to shut off your brain while watching. If you think too much, you'll hurt yourself.
My Hero
My Hero is an action thriller about coming out of your comfort zone. We follow the story of a loner, Nathan, who has been pushed around by life, and his only happiness is martial arts films. He built so many walls around his life that he can’t get out of a routine of a low-level cleaner job at a gym and lonely night-time binges on TV. Until he can’t have enough of his horrible life, he joins a human trial to become a better self. Not knowing what he signed up for is more than a friendly trial to help people. To make matters worse, Nathan is now accidentally involved with a criminal organisation, and he has no answer or defences. Until his alter ego - HERO, spawns out. But Hero, just like Nathan, is full of flaws and contradictions. And the two form an unlikely friendship where perhaps at the end, only one can survive. An action film for the new generation full of adrenaline, fights, emotions and martial arts.

"Together" (2025) Film Review-Sticking together in relationship troubles takes a disturbingly extreme, eerily transformative path
This current year, as well as the past several, has seen a slowly building increase in something the horror genre has required for quite a while in this critic's opinion...originality. I've stated before that I am very hard to please when it comes to this vein of the film industry's offerings, always leaning more towards that which sends chills through my very being in lieu of buckets of blood and gore.

‘She-Ra and the Princesses of Power’, a Worthwhile Watch to Celebrate Pride Month with the Whole Family!
An aspect of She-Ra that I find refreshing is even though a large portion of the cast is on the LGBTQ+ Spectrum, being gay is never mentioned. While this might initially sound like a negative thing, in the show’s land of Etheria being on the gay spectrum is shown to be so common and normalized that straight isn’t the default. As much as there is to appreciate about narratives revolving around the obstacles that may come from being non-heteronormative, it’s nice to get immersed in a world where no one bats an eye at all to any sort of differing identity.
