This love story of two young people is based on William Shakespeare's legendary play *Romeo and Juliet*. Set in modern times, this rock musical first premiered in 2006. It was created by Jaagup Kreem and Elmar Liitmaa, members of the Estonian rock band Terminaator. In spring of 2026, the musical was staged at Unibet Arena in what became the largest theatrical production in Estonia to date. More than 100 performers took to the stage, accompanied by the band Terminaator, a symphony orchestra, a youth choir and dancers.
An action-packed adrenaline rush with a diverse cast that delivers evocative storytelling.
These confines won’t really encourage you to read the film as a metaphor for the nerve-inducing experience we’ve all been through over the last year, however — and in the interest of maintaining your dignity, you probably shouldn’t. While the sociopolitical commentary may have worked for the similarly-themed Buried (2010), in which we find Ryan Reynolds on his own buried alive in the Middle East, but this futuristic take on the premise is best left as a piece of distracting entertainment. Nevertheless, the atmosphere is no less suffocating, literally and dramatically.
Set in a future dystopian United States in which water is running out, Julia Hart’s Fast Color (2018) is a refreshingly different take on the superhero film.
Like most young people, Leviticus is imperfect. But I love it anyways.
Stand and Deliver is an inspirational classic from 1988 starring Edward James Olmos as Jaime Escalante, and his class of rag tag students in East Los Angeles. It’s the story of how a new teacher shows a motley group of students in the inner city with backgrounds as gang members, dishwashers, and mechanics — the power of self-determination. He teaches the teenagers to believe in themselves through algebra and calculus.
