It wouldn’t be completely unfair to say that this movie has no reason to exist except to showcase two of Hollywood’s most beloved actors of the 90’s: Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder. These two have been friends for 30 years and appeared in several movies together. But “Destination […]
I love Harry Potter. I love Hogwarts. I love that I got to spend a decade with all these characters. I don’t pretend to know every tiny detail about the movies, but I’ve been enjoying them ever since I was a teenager, and I thought it would be […]
So many of our favorite series (Scandal, The Walking Dead, Grey’s Anatomy, The Vampire Diaries) are forced to go on longer than they have to because profit-hungry networks love cashing in on the emotional investment of their viewers. Here are the ten shows that stayed on the air way past their prime. […]
Here’s a pleasant surprise: a remake that doesn’t suck. It would be easy to dismiss it at first as an updated version that has no reason to exist, but once you warm up to it, it’s just as brutal and poignant as the 1973 classic starring Steve McQueen […]

We all have one of those. Maybe more. Some might call them “guilty pleasures”, but they’re pretty bad as far as I’m concerned. But the kind of bad that I enjoy revisiting every now and then. Feel free to share your list of “Bad movies you enjoy watching”! […]
I like Netflix. I’m not here to rant or to provide you with anti-Netflix arguments. I’ve been watching series on it more than ever before and I always enjoy browsing their film library. But recently, and for the first time ever, I had to turn off three movies […]
To describe “Disobedience” purely as a lesbian drama is to miss the point. This is a devastating story of love, that happens to take place in an “obedient” society. When the movie opens, we are welcomed with a speech by a rabbi, talking about angels, beasts, and, ironically, […]
It would be tempting to call this comedy the “Asian” version of “Meet the Parents”, but considering the thought process that went into it, I won’t. For those who may not know, “Crazy Rich Asians” is Hollywood’s first major film in years starring an all-Asian cast. This is a […]
