A Time Called You Review: Time Travel Era

Rating: 5 out of 5.

I guess there’s nothing more relatable than wanting to go back in time and choosing to change something you did and expect that everything will be fine eventually, like who wouldn’t want coming back in time, trying not to choose the ex who hurt you but instead choose someone else you’ve been with before you even chose your ex, right? Or maybe right now you are thinking that maybe you could’ve just choose that shitty apartment rather than spending more money into renting an expensive one only to find out that you will just get fired a month after and be homeless, like who wouldn’t want to try that another option that maybe your life could’ve been a lot better.

Totally Killer Review: Keep Slasher Movies Coming!

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

There’s so many movies coming out this October and I am more excited with Slasher movies because I believe that Slasher movies are the GOAT of all the horror movies. I grew up watching Halloween, Friday the 13th, Child’s Play, Nightmare on the Elm Street, SCREAM and many more. These movies were hit during the 90s and I think these are the core reason why I loved watching films and telling people what I love about it.

October means Halloween and Halloween means more horror/thriller/suspense movies. Well, just in time for October, a new movie has been released on Amazon Prime entitled Totally Killer. This is a story of a teenager using a Time Machine to go back in time and save her mother and other girls who were killed by the legend serial killer, Sweet Sixteen Killer.

One Piece Review

Rating: 5 out of 5.

For those who love anime especially the ones watching anime series in the 90s, we all know who Monkey D. Luffy is and One Piece is not just an anime because this one was released originally as a manga in 1997 and then it got released as an anime cartoon in 1999 with more than 1000 episode, One Piece is still on going. What makes it more interesting is that not only the 90s kids are loving One Piece but also the Gen Zs. Created by Eiichiro Oda, this is one of the longest running anime which actually consists of 1000 plus episodes (Aside from Pokemon, Naruto, Yu Gi Oh!, Doraemon, Shin Chan and Detective Conan).

This year, a year where most of the Anime’s are getting their live action adaptation, they now finally released the much awaited One Piece Live Action. Produced by Netflix, The One Piece is actually following the start of the original manga series and the cartoon series, which means, it is just an adaptation, it is a close look to its real story. Despite the numerous comments from people not liking a live action of books, comics and other written artworks, the One Piece is actually somehow the closes to its real deal.

The Nun II Review

Rating: 4 out of 5.

How many movies are we going to watch until we answer every question on each movie that they release each year? Well, it’s not often that we get them answered actually, especially horror films. It’s always either they have some continuation or they just don’t reveal the whole story for the viewers to get some cliff hanger which I really hate as a movie reviewer because it doesn’t give me any conclusion. Well, to be particular, there were too many installments of Exorcist, Insidious, and Conjuring that were released each year and we just cannot catch up. It’s like a Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Equalizer 3 Review

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Well, if the action stars Denzel Washington, then you know that is one heck of a film. Equalizer movies have been one of the best action films of all time. It all started with The Equalizer TV Series which was aired in 1985, then they turned it into movie on 2014, then the next movie was a long wait for at least 4 years, released on July 2018 and then it got its reboot as TV Series by 2021 and then here we are again after two years, we are talking about Equalizer despite the years of thinking the story is done.

Gran Turismo Review

Rating: 5 out of 5.

If you’re a gamer, you’ll probably know what does Playstation do and what its games are about. Playstation is actually the OG of all the gaming consoles in the market right now, followed by Nintendo and Xbox. Since PS1 to PS5, Playstation has been dominating the gaming industry for so many years, with its wide range selection of exclusive games, you’re a clear legend if you have played most of the games available. 

I grew up playing Crash Bandicoot, Tekken, Mortal Combat and Street Fighter, Battle of Tanks, Racing Rally, Vice City and GTA (It was not even my console, I had to borrow console from my cousin whose father works abroad, coz at that time, only kids with parents working abroad can actually afford video consoles and even handheld games like gameboy.) While these are the most common games in PlayStation before, as I grew up and gained a wider access to some other Sony Produced consoles like  PSP which I was able to have because my uncle from abroad gifted my siblings, I was able to play UMDs like Daxter, which technically my most favourite of them all. And since I am now a grow up, with my own money to spend, I was able to buy PS4 and PS5 all from my pocket, and that’s how I became more hooked into gaming. Aside from that, I am a proud mother of two Pokemon Special Edition Nintendo Switch (Yeah, not t brag but it’s all a fruit of hard work) Well, anyway, enough bragging, I just wanted you to know that I am writing a moview not as a movie reviewer but as a gamer.

Barbie Review

Rating: 4 out of 5.

The long wait has been really worth it. I know this is not the first time I have written something about it because I wrote about the postponement of the movie in the UAE and also the banning in Vietnam last month, but yes, I am talking about the live action movie of The Barbie. Many people are not convinced that it can be made into live action movie but here it is, reaching $1 Billion worldwide box office gross sales within its first two weeks, making it second to the most grossing film of Warner Bros, the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows.

Who would imagine that every country will actually participate on making their countries ‘pink’ a staple color for Barbie. And it is also directed by a female, which is very empowering. The director Greta Gerwig, who was famous for her works such as Little Women and Lady Bird. So we definitely know how she is all about the Women Power.

Oppenheimer Review

Rating: 5 out of 5.

I am become of death. The destroyer of the worlds

J. Robert Oppenheimer

A biographic film, the Oppenheimer. This new film directed by Christoper Nolan is ranging from mystery to greatness. We all know who Christopher Nolan is, well, if not then let me tell you who he is. Christopher is the famous director of Dark Knight (2008), Dunkirk, Tenet, Interstellar and my favorite, Inception. If you watched these movies, you’ll know for sure that there’s a deep dark mystery in the film that all throughout the movie, you’ll ask so many questions.

Meg 2: The Trench Review

Rating: 2.5 out of 5.

We have seen Jaws, Jurassic Park, Piranha and Komodo Dragon, which actually made me scared of reptiles, and sharks for the rest of my childhood and yes, I could, say every time, I go to the beach, I still have that fear of getting bitten by a shark or eaten by killer whale, I mean, you never know.

This year, they have released a new movie installment for MEG, the sequel was actually surprising because the first movie was released 2018 and we didn’t expect some sequels up ahead, or maybe there was but I just didn’t see it coming. Anyway, MEG is a prehistoric shark that lives in the deep level of the water that was discovered by researchers and then during the research they had to be saved by Jonas Taylor played by Jason Stratham. Due to their extinction, they didn’t know the capabilities of the huge sharks and so they had to study it to be able to prevent them from reaching the surface and kill people.

Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning P1 Review

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Alright, I’m not gonna do any long introduction because this movie is Tom Cruise’s and I know that everyone knows this movie series.
