Till Lindemann: Ich hasse Kinder 

A young boy who runs away from home discovers friendship when he befriends a young dragon in this animated movie.

The new biopic 'Elvis' highlights the beginning and end of the career of this rock and roll legend. The audience is taken on this journey knowing the tragic ending but not so much about what led him there. A large topic of discussion is the influences on Elvis that made him who he was as a singer, musician, and performer, which were blues, gospel, and country. Many of the songs that rose him to fame were songs by Black artists he heard growing up in primarily Black settings.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show not only supported Tim curry queer individuals who were closeted or harassed. It made people question their identity, orientation, and lifestyles that they never had before.

'Zero Refills' highlights the despicable treatment of the less fortunate by healthcare providers and big pharmaceuticals.

Ready or Not  takes a terrifying situation and has a fun time with horror components. The film melds horror and comedy, creating a cinematic hybrid that flows like running water. Instead of being a film that embraces gut-wrenching sensibilities, it perfectly taps into the energetic nature of hide and seek.

Halle's belting, crystal clear notes, and warm tone infused something into this blockbuster that I thoroughly enjoy.
