The Kissing Booth 2 – Review
I’m assuming if you’re reading this you’re either a diehard supporter of this blog, in which case congratulations on your excellent taste or you’re planning to watch/have watched The Kissing Booth 2, in which case also congratulations on your excellent taste. Just kidding, you should probably rethink that decision. The Kissing Booth 2 (2020) was […]

Palm Springs (2020): Review
As we reach a point in the pandemic where the industry is starting to consider what it would take to release films theatrically again, all eyes seem to be pointing towards the year’s big blockbusters to light the beacon and lead us back into those hallowed auditoriums with our ridiculously-portioned popcorn and drinks the size […]

June 2020 Film Round-Up
It feels absolutely surreal that another month has already passed by. The UK is seeing the bulk of its lockdown restriction being eased or lifted, and it seems as though we’re in the transition phase back into some semblance of normalcy. I have no idea when that will be, but I hope everybody is continuing […]

My 30 Biggest Oscar Snubs of the 2010’s
This was going to happen eventually. I write a lot of lists and posts about the Oscars on my blog and what better way to combine those two areas by writing about the films that should have made the cut but unfortunately didn’t. Snubs are inevitable. In a year of highly competent films, with only […]

May 2020 Film Round-Up
I had planned this post today since my April edition, but given the state of the world, I couldn’t post it without addressing things that have been going on around the whole world especially the past few days, but really for the past few centuries. As a white person, I am aware of my privilege […]

The Underestimated Brilliance of Riverdale
In the immortal words of Cheryl Blossom: listen up, ragamuffins! The moment I always feared has arrived. I’m writing a piece defending Riverdale. Now if you’ve never seen Riverdale, you might have heard about its unusual plot-lines and ridiculous dialogue about bear attacks or some obscure cultural reference that not even the characters truly understand. […]

How To Build A Girl (2020) Review
It’s simple. I see Beanie Feldstein, I watch. I pretty much knew nothing about this film besides that fact that Beanie was in it and that adorable poster of her in the top hat. That was more than enough to sell me and it was exactly what I signed up for. How To Build A […]

The Half Of It (2020) Review
Premise: When a well-meaning but inexpressive jock asks her to write a love letter to his crush, straight-A student Ellie Chu ends up discovering a lot about herself, love, and life itself. These nice Netflix originals in the YA genre have been hit and miss with me so far, at least out of the ones […]

April 2020 Film Round-Up
Okay about three seconds ago I decided to start a new series on this blog, a monthly series that recaps everything that I watched this month and what I thought about it. Now, it won’t be like a proper WTCR recap where I spend 4 paragraphs talking about “the gorgeous cinematography” or “Michelle Williams’ immaculate […]
