Blade Runner
A masterpiece of production design and cinematography. A screenplay bursting at the seams with themes and ideas. All tied to rather dull story about a detective who doesn’t really detect anything.

Harry Potter (Films)
A balm for outsiders and misfits everywhere, and a reminder never to hide your magic. Though very different, the movies stand alone from the books as a more crisp, cinematic retelling of a lovably eccentric and detailed series. A true modern-day Odyssey, the story of Harry Potter is beyond critique.

Movie Critique: John Tucker Must Die
Film critics deem this 2006 teen comedy film as "the worst teen flick" when actually it is lowkey comedy teen gold. Brittany Murphy plays Kate, a blonde teen social nobody who doesn't get noticed or get attention from even boys at school who wouldn't even look at her. Well, I'm not going to lie she is kind of like me in my teens. She lives with her single, hot mom played by Jenny McCarthy, who always dating men and most likely gets hurt by them after they are done screwing her.

The Hidden Effects Of The Movies
'A quiet evening at the beach, the soft lapping of water on the shore, an ominous, Pavlovian tinkle of a bell on a buoy, two repetitious tuba notes signaling ill portent, the dark presence of something stirring in the water, just below the surface, it wants to eat you, NOW!' (From my critique of Jaws.)

The Pavlovian Principle In Jaws
Whilst Stephen Spielberg was not the first to use Pavlovian practices in his epic film, Jaws, he is most certainly the one film director to use the Pavlovian Principle to such a fearful degree.

The Beauty of Brokeback Mountain
Brokeback Mountain is an unparalleled cinematic gem that delves deep into the complexities of forbidden love. Its poignant portrayal of raw emotion, juxtaposed against stunning landscapes, speaks volumes without words. The film challenges societal norms, presenting love as a universal language while transcending boundaries and expectations. A profound emotional odyssey.

Ever After (1998, dir. Andy Tennant)
Cinderella was real. Find her in Da Vinci’s yellowed sketches: a downcast, gentle gaze. Love roots between gilded thievery and servant lies, a tryst of two kindred minds. Imprisoned, yet headstrong, they learn softness, compromise, & trust.
