How My ‘Most Anticipated of 2020’ List Turned Out…
On January 8th 2020, before the world exploded, I wrote a post titled “My 10 Most Anticipated Films of 2020” which is exactly what you think it is.

November 2020 Film Round-Up
While November didn’t have the never-ending quality of October, I also managed to watch a lot more movies. As we reach the end of the year, it’s time for the prestige movies to finally roll themselves out in time for the yearly awards circuit. As you might’ve gleaned from some of my posts, this is…

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…
