Movie
Pitch Perfect
If you love acapella the Pitch Perfect franchise is for you. The franchise is about friendship and finding your strength. It centers around Becca. The three movies follow her growth from joining a group she didn’t want to join to breaking from the group and doing it on her own.

The Fast and Furious
If you want fast cars these movies are for you. At its heart The Fast and Furious is about family. It centers around Dom and the people he has attracted to him over the years. After 22 years and 10 movies this is one of the greatest franchises there is.

50 Critics: Squid Games
Though it ends on somewhat of a stalemate note, The Squid Games is a certainly clever metaphor of a story about how we are all just rats in a maze who are running a rat race to make it to the next big score that will save our miserable lives.

Cinderella
Cinderella, like most Disney classics, involves a woman who looks for love in the most bizarre of places. Personally, I hope when my daughter grows up, she has higher standards than a man who has to use a shoe to identify her, because he doesn't recognise her without make-up on.

Citizen Kane
Widely regarded as the best film ever made, Citizen Kane was as famous for its production as it was for its story. The three most revolutionary elements were its structure, editing, and cinematography. The techniques used became the de rigueur of filmmaking. It is now how all films are made.

Kindergarten Cop
Kindergarten Cop, while ridiculous, is actually executed with a stunning level of skill and care. The jokes land well and shows Arnie has considerable range beyond the dumb action star he had been typecast, working well with the kids. Ivan Reitman gets the best out of everyone. Genuinely good fun.

Orca The Killer Whale
Orca The Killer Whale? This box office success should have been called Orca, The Inept Gummy Bear Of The Deep. The biggest suspense was standing in line waiting to take a much-needed leak. I've seen more bite in a week-old dead fly. The end could not come soon enough.

Nacho Libre
It might be the most artful comedy ever. This movie has everything: a luchador-friar-cook, secret tunnels, the best corn in the city, cinema's greatest training montage, and stretchy pants! From the "recreation clothes" to the "Lord's chips," this movie is "the best!" Plus, it's (loosely!) based on a true story.

Banshees of Inisherin
Captivatingly Stark Contrasts: Rudimentary satisfaction battles complex mental instability. Turmoil unfolds in slow motion, trapping your gaze, similar to a roach in a sticky trap. Desolation and depression are well represented and reflected in empty, gray landscapes. Light-hearted characters and wry comedy bring a deep beauty to these dark places.

Avatar is not the way
The Avatar series is not as ground breaking as people claim. It is stolen stories that warp indigenous tropes to create a fictional society complete white savior a who becomes one of their own. It dances with colonization as if it's a beautiful waltz & not a dance of death.
