During its unexpected journey in the transition from being an overlooked Lifetime gem to an unexpected Netflix smash hit, creepy romance/thriller You evolved beyond its Dexter counterpart and into something truly special. Season three ended in a sort of reset, appearing to promise that Joe (Penn Badgley) would be stalking librarian Marienne (Tati Gabrielle) and … Continue reading TV Review: You – Season 4, Part 1
Film Review: She is Love
★★ Frequently frustrating yet not without its charms, She is Love ultimately fails to impress. One big missed opportunity after another hang over the film like an ugly scab that cannot be ignored. The mismatched coupling at the center may be to blame. However, both Haley Bennett and Sam Riley are also host to the … Continue reading Film Review: She is Love
Film Review: Maybe I Do
★★★★ I must admit that despite a stellar cast, I had pretty low expectations when sitting down to watch Maybe I Do. Perhaps it was the odd premise or the fact that it’s being dumped straight to VOD. However, my fears were unfounded, and Maybe I Do is actually an adorable, fun time at home. … Continue reading Film Review: Maybe I Do
Film Review: You People
★★ For what it’s worth, I would consider Eddie Murphy to be one of the greatest living comedians of our time. Starring in countless gems throughout the 80s and 90s, the only major notable films from Murphy since the early 2010s, Dolemite Is My Name and Coming 2 America, earned relatively mixed reception. Now, Murphy’s … Continue reading Film Review: You People
Film Review: Shotgun Wedding
★ Romantic comedies are perhaps the most comforting, easy-watching genre of movies out there. I admittedly have a soft spot for many rom-coms, even the ones that aren’t necessarily great. Growing up with classics like Legally Blonde, Heartbreakers, John Tucker Must Die, and The Devil Wears Prada, there is a certain quality these films carry … Continue reading Film Review: Shotgun Wedding
Film Review: In From the Side
★★★★ Queer romance-dramas are always welcomed with open arms in my household, so the second In From the Side shot onto my radar, I was anxious to see how it would play out. A concept involving forbidden romance between rugby players could have been trite and predictable in lesser hands. One instantly imagines a heterosexual … Continue reading Film Review: In From the Side

TV Review: Emily in Paris – Season 3
After a lengthy hiatus typical of the Netflix model, Emily in Paris is back for a vibrant, super fun third season! Honestly, I felt a bit of a sophomore slump with their previous effort. 2020’s debut season however was one of my favorite comfort-watching experiences. I am so thrilled to report that this time around, … Continue reading TV Review: Emily in Paris – Season 3
Film Review: The Honeymoon
★★★★ For some reason, the rom-com genre for me has always been a major source of comfort food, and Lionsgate charmer The Honeymoon comes along at the perfect time of year to bring all the feels! This raunchy R-rated romp poses a horrifying question: what if one's childhood bestie decided to tag along on their … Continue reading Film Review: The Honeymoon
Film Review: Something From Tiffany’s
★★ Romantic comedy Something From Tiffany’s is just about as generic as they come. Feeling like it emerged fresh from the other side of the conveyor belt, I was left hunting for the scraps of salvageable delights from this unfortunately misguided and questionably-paced little Prime Video flick. How does one waste the talents of Zoey … Continue reading Film Review: Something From Tiffany’s
