The Man in the Pinstripe Suit (2021)

Unfortunately, People We Meet on Vacation didn’t hold up quite as well as I’d hoped.

Overall, Cruella stands above the other Disney retellings. Its dark and bold, and that is exactly what these retellings should be. Emma Stone continues to prove she's one of the finest young actresses working today, and Emma Thompson gives one of the best villain performances in the last decade. The fashion is stunning, the dogs are adorable, and the story is wildly vibrant and original. It's classic movie fun, and it shouldn't be overlooked.

Tarantino's alternative history of the 1960's uncritically repeats the era's sexist and racist stereotypes.

The plot could’ve really been interesting if the elements of lycanthropy was integrated with perhaps the struggle of identity of being LGBTQ+. It's an experience for so many that as they’re starting to realizing their true selves, they feel like a monster, especially if they come from unsupportive homes or communities. Instead, the horror and transformation elements seem thrown in without contemplation of how this could deepen the narrative.

Mirrorball is full of passion and love for the medium of cinema and is indeed a fitting love letter to La La Land.

A movie that brings Indian culture with classic Bollywood themes and electronic dance music.
