WATCH NOW Automation borrows a little bit from movies past such as Chopping Mall, Short Circuit, and even Robocop. That’s not a bad thing at all, in fact, it’s part of what I admired about the film since it was able, to an extent, pay homage as well as sprinkle it with some modern social […]
WATCH NOW If you haven’t heard, environmental and social justice groups are attempting to organize what they claim will be the largest climate march in history. Approximately 100,000 people are expected to attend a rally in Manhattan on the eve of a major climate summit at the United Nations, with similar marches planned for London,
WATCH NOW An astronaut, Eke Chukwu, has been in space for far too long and has no clue regarding what he might find when he arrives back on earth. After crash landing on an entirely deserted continent, it’s clear to him that a lot has changed in the world. Having fled from the Citadel, Aozora,

WATCH NOW The tale of men departing into war only to suffer casualties, while women heroically pick up shattered pieces, is as ancient as history. It is also the simple premise of writer and director Blerta Basholli’s riveting domestic drama “Hive,” a film that won three awards at the Sundance Film Festival, which deeply honours
WATCH NOW I was particularly eager to view Joachim Trier’s “Reprise” again with an audience, as it is a splendid mashup of fiction, essays, and cinema, which took critical thinking by the storm through its bold and confident execution, novelistic style, and marvelous constructs. At the same time, the movie enhances the viewers experience through

WATCH NOW The surge in the popularity of superhero movies has led to even smaller-budget filmmakers attempting to tackle the genre. Some have worked, others have not, but writers have had to come up with interesting solutions to fit their budgets. Originally, Transference Dark Mutants feels largely like a sci-fi film that borders on the

WATCH NOW Before Johnson dove into the Star Wars franchise with The Last Jedi, he had several groundbreaking films that made him a household name. With the ingenuity of Shakespeare’s work ‘Romeo and Juliet’, the smart ‘Brick’ was set in high school where a mystery unfolds much like those classic Bogart and Mitchum noir films.

WATCH NOW Gilbert Andrew’s (The Dead Inside) Edge Of Extinction is a dull piece of post-apocalyptic filmmaking from the UK, which as a more suiting name is The Brink. Admittedly, an apocalyptic scenario may not be the most appropriate thing to relax to right now. Then again, if there is no future to worry about

WATCH NOW It’s quite challenging to watch Imitation Girl, the most recent film from writer and director Natasha Kermani, and not recall the 2013 sci-fi film Under the Skin. In both films, an enigmatic actor comes from the heavens above onto the Earth and learns what it means to be human. Both films have an

WATCH NOW Extinction is another Netflix sci-fi movie I recently watched, and while it is not perfect, it is certainly an improvement over Titan or Anon. The overused alien invasion is replaced with a refreshing twist, and though the central premise is intriguing, the movie rests too heavily on its ending twist. Because of this,
