Movie Review: Disclosure Day
Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day boasts a stellar cast and fascinating ideas, but for a movie about extraterrestrial disclosure, it spends surprisingly little time with the aliens themselves.

Movie Review: Faces Of Death
Growing up, the original 1978 Faces of Death traumatized and fascinated me. Naturally, the 2026 slasher reboot had me excited but skeptical.

A 6/10 experience that hits the nostalgic sweet spot but misses the mark on narrative.

Movie Review: The Devil Wears Prada 2
Think the original was untouchable? Think again. The Devil Wears Prada 2 officially "ate." From the return of the iconic trio (Miranda, Andy, and Emily) to a jaw-dropping Lady Gaga cameo, this sequel tackles the death of print media with style and heart. It’s a mature, high-stakes look at Andy Sachs’ professional growth and the struggle to balance a career with a personal life. If you love fashion and pop culture, this is the 9/10 masterpiece you’ve been waiting for!
