The Romancing Star 

Viewers get a glimpse of life of mediocrity in a world where humans and cartoon characters live together in this comeback.

Overall, Sand Castle was another lack luster war drama that will eventually fade into the many similar war dramas I have seen throughout my life.

What seems like such a simple story of survival is so much more than that—it’s a story of family, and of war, and of destruction. It’s painful to watch, but not in a bad way. It makes its audience reflect on their own actions, and in how they are complicit in the sufferings of others as the adults in this film are. Grave of the Fireflies does not hold back from being heartbreaking, and it shouldn’t. It tells a message that needs to be heard decades after the war, and a story that cannot be forgotten by history.

The trouble with Yara (2021) is that in its attempt to tell the whole story, it struggles to tell a consistently engaging story.

A man struggling with the death of his son agrees to coach his former high school basketball team.

Some moments of the series are intense and ends on a cliff-hanger that will have you yearning for a second season.
