Well, last July (Yes I know I’ve watched it that early but failed to write about it coz of my lazy ass and some personal reasons which I promise to tell you guys after I be able to write all the movie reviews that I missed writing for the past few months). Anyway, there’s this new movie that is added up on those movies that I mentioned and it is called the Escape Room: Tournament of Champions.

Gossip Girl: XOXO, She’s Back!

“We’re sisters. You’re my family. What is you is me. There’s nothing you could ever say that would make me let go.”

Blair Waldorf, Gossip Girl 2007

Apparently, there’s a new scoop going around Manhattan after 8 years of being asleep, our beloved Gossip Girl is back! HBO Max just or should I say finally reprise Gossip Girl and it’s all we have been waiting for! Since its premiere in 2007, Gossip Girl is the no. 1 go-to of all high school girls like me. It became our creative standards when it comes to IT Girl TV Shows.

No one can beat Serena and Blair-two high school best friends who are facing the pressure of being an IT Girl around a very pressuring society of Manhattan. We have lived almost the whole high school and college, well, I’d say I did, and survived it because of them. Their mottos became my mantra. I know as a fan you will hear that all through out this article.

I was actually late to hear about this because I was too busy at work but last week I was able to

This movie is giving us a taste of the dream again!

The casts are jampacked! Starring Camilla Cabello as Cinderella, Nicholas Glatzine as Prince Robert, Idina Menzel as the Evil stepmother, Pierce Brosnan as the King and Minnie Driver as the Queen.

Suicide Squad 2: (A Moview)

Where do I have to begin? Well, First this is another DC Movie that can possibly reconnect all the DC upcoming movies and series and this might be the better version of all the villain-turned-hero movies of all time. I guess we all know how directors nowadays are filling up the gaps of superhero movies by creating sequels for the villains’ side of the story. which suicide squad was familiar of; other samples will be Legends of Tomorrow, Bird of Prey and the other films that we’ve seen through out the years. Although I should admit, at first I was a little skeptical because I didn’t like the first film for the Suicide Squad, and I didn’t actually expect that they will creating another one based on the same story.

Okay for those who don’t know the Suicide Squad at all, so these are the group of villains from different cities and defeated by DC heroes. Imma tell you some of them later on. So these people were basically sent to a mission, which is practically a suicide mission (yeah, that’s where they got the name, technically.) Most of them were either getting killed or getting killed there’s no way out unless they have some kind of magic as if they have nine lives just like Harley Quinn. Yes, Harley is goddess of the squad. She basically is the only one who eventually survives a serious hit every time. That’s her big luck, I guess? Well anyway, this moview is a little detailed with so many spoilers including the upcoming (possible) plans for DC Universe. I know, I have to say this ones again, I geek on these kinds of reviews especially when it comes to DC Films.

Disclaimer: Please watch Suicide Squad 2 before you continue with this review. Any spoilt events are at reader’s risk.

Space Jam 2: It’s Lebron’s Time or Is It?

From the 1996 infamous Cartoon-live action film starred by Michael Jordan comes a new version of the Space Jam. For everyone who doesn’t know Space Jam is one of the highest grossing basketball film of all time, well because Michael Jordan was there playing with all the Looney Tunes characters such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Lola Bunny and the rest of the Looney Tunes cartoon characters.

HBO Max has released the newest or should I say the second sequel of the Space Jam, starring another NBA Legend of his time, Lebron James. Yeah, who doesn’t know The LBJ? Okay, Okay, He’s the famous NBA player

Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins (A Moview)

Have you ever played toys like Batman, Superman, Robin, and the G.I. Joe? Yeah those were like kiddie toys which I’ve known because I have two brothers and yeah, we grew up knowing at least what are those. Not a really big fan but I guess this is like making a comic book turn into life or Toy Story in the real world. but I believe these toys were made during the 1980s and stayed for more years. I remember there were also cartoons made for G.I. Joe.

So what do we know about the G.I. Joe? I know these action figures played by most boys during my time and even earlier. American franchise of toys by the toy company Hasbro, like dolls for boys well, also for girls, Scarlett, was definitely the favourite. Anyhow, just like how books and comics are getting film adaptations, actions figure apparently get the privilege too. There were three movies made before this latest one; The G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra,

The Last Letter From Your Lover (A Moview)

“It never ended. Even though she’d thought she’d covered her heart with a permanent porcelain shell, he still found a way to chip at it.”

― Jojo Moyes, The Last Letter from Your Lover

You know me, I love books that are coming into life. Just like those Nicholas Sparks novels, that invaded my entire university-age hopeful mind and those Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte books that made me hope for something extraordinaire or those written by Shakespeare and F. Scottgerald that made me fall in love with literature. Yes, all those kinds you see in the classic bookshelf in the library or in the bookstore. I remember, when I was in college, I spend most of my time lingering around second hand books store, trying to fish a good catch of classical novels. My first ones were Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Great Gatsby and Romeo & Juliet.

I remember who I was all excited to go home after purchasing a half-priced old book that was still in good condition. I remember how I spend sleepless nights not for reviewing but for reading such books. I became hopeful that someday, these books will come to life coz I swear, I keep dreaming of them. Well, there are few versions of film adaptations but it wasn’t played on the cinematic type that I wanted so when they finally released such movies in the year where technology has better results than black and white, yes, I was so happy.

This month marks one of the unapologetically nice books I’ve read, being released as a movie. Yes, Netflix did it again! The Title of the book is The last letter from your lover by Jojo Moyes, the same writer for Me Before You which also became a movie hit few years back. If you have read the book itself, you’ll know that this movie is set in the 1960s and in the present day. It’s a story about two pairs of couples;

Kingdom: Ashin of the North (A Moview)

Avenge my father’s death.

-Ashin, Kingdom: Ashin of the North, 2021

Who among of you have watched the famous Korean Drama series (which is zombie-based) Kingdom? Well, it has Season 1 and Season 2 which were released in the past few years. During the pandemic, everyone got hooked up in watching the said series until eventually everyone is asking for a sequel.

So this month of July, they released a new entry for the Kingdom, however, this is not a sequel, nor a 12 episode-long series. It’s a prequel movie tackling some unanswered questions left from the S1 & S2. So to those who are expecting that they’ll be seeing the Prince, you won’t coz this is a prequel as I mentioned.

So let’s begin, (well, obviously, spoiler alert again.) The story is about Ashin; For those who have watched the cliff hanger of the last episode of S2, She’s the

Black Widow: A Moview

Most movies now are embracing the reverse flashback plots (I called it like that coz most of these flashbacks were actually the main event in a movie) It’s like directors have been okay with the result-first-before-the-cause kind of plots which I do not complain about but this particular movie, I think deserves more than a flashback. I’m talking about the newest released, Black Widow. So yeah, this is about the newest released of the the Marvel Studios, Black Widow.

In other angle, Marvel is now embracing the villain stories which DC Movies had already made, (e.g. Suicide Squad, Joker, League of Legends etc…)

Just this 8th of July, Marvel has released another new movie after being postponed because of Covid19, finally, we will see Black Widow Movie in cinemas. Anyway, I wanna discuss this movie or maybe talk about how the plot is and where does it becomes relevant with. You might find a few spoilers but let’s see how we could detail this review.

Disclaimer: Spoiler alert! Whatever you read here is only based on what I’ve seen and what I think I feel while seeing this movie. To be fair and I won’t be blamed for spoiling, watch it first before you continue reading this article.

Let’s begin!
