For the first week of August, I was able to choose the first selection. Once we rolled the dice, Maxwell said “Oh one of my favorite movies is here this month.” So naturally, I asked which one (I was secretly hoping his answer would be “Toy Story Toons: Small Fry (2011).”) However, the actual answer… Read more

For my final week of July, I was stuck with a movie that neither Maxwell, nor I wanted to watch: Joker (2019)… I’m going to start off with my overall thoughts on this movie: It was actually pretty just okay. I was surprised by how much I didn’t hate it, but also it left me… Read more

For my movie this week, I randomly took a stab in the dark and ended up with Otherhood (2019). I was really trying to avoid the movie that I am unfortunately stuck with for next week… But that’s something I’ll write about next week. Anyway, this is a movie that is so far from my… Read more

For the second week of July, Maxwell chose one of the two horror movies in the draft, so I immediately chose the other one as my pick. Maxwell is someone who doesn’t typically watch horror or enjoy that genre as a whole, while I am someone who has a love for horror and enjoys seeing… Read more

My first selection for July was a complete shot in the dark at a movie I had never heard of, Upside Down (2012). A grandiose love story about a universe with twin planets. This movie starts off in an entirely aggravating way, the opening monologue is only four and a half minutes in length, but… Read more

My final film for June was Untraceable (2008). A psychological crime thriller about a serial killer live streaming his murders. Based on the premise alone, I was not expecting much from this week’s pick. And I was pleasantly surprised. This one was very enjoyable, albeit a little slow paced in the first act. I had… Read more

For the second week of June, I drafted a movie I had never heard of, despite there being plenty of (probably) more interesting picks left, but sometimes I like to force myself to watch something that I normally wouldn’t. In the past (maybe not for this blog) I have been surprised, and ended up having… Read more

For the fourth week of May, I got stuck with Ride Along 2 (2016). This is a movie I had no expectations for. In the draft, Maxwell said that he refuses to watch anything with Kevin Hart in it (which I mostly agree with, I would not go out of my way to watch a… Read more

This week’s pick was a doozy, and that’s putting it lightly. I chose The Hustle (2019) for three reasons: I had never heard of this movie, I enjoy Anne Hathaway (usually) and Rebel Wilson (usually). I put “usually” in quotation marks, because this was not one of those times. I absolutely hated this movie. It… Read more

For the second week of May, I selected Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021). I will start this review off by saying I am not a superhero movie fan; I have seen maybe five or so movies out of the entire MCU Franchise, and unless more pop up on the draft for this blog, I will… Read more
