  Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 16 Jul 2023 21

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  “This mission of yours is going to cost you… dearly.” 🏆

  Best Performance: Tom Cruise
  Best Scene: Orient Express
  Best Character: Ethan Hunt
  Best Aspect: Action

  My most anticipated film of the year — Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One — is finally here and I can’t say I’m disappointed. This is another top-tier outing that contributes to the greatest action franchise of all-time. Tom Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie are absolutely white-hot with creativity, crafting another set of electrifying…

  Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 2023

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 06 Jun 2023 7

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  “Being Spider-man is a sacrifice. You have a choice between saving one person and saving every world.” 🏆

  Best Performance: Hailee Steinfeld
  Best Scene: Spider Chase
  Best Character: Miles Morales
  Best Aspect: Animation

  Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is a monumental success in animation. The visuals are astounding, like nothing anybody has ever attempted or been able to reach previously. And as of right now, this is the best animation ever put to screen. 

  The storytelling is also widely unique and…

  Non-Stop 2014

  ★★★½ Watched 11 Nov 2023

  “I’m not a good father. I’m not a good man. I’m not hijacking this plane. I’m trying to save it!” 👍🏼

  Best Performance: Liam Neeson
  Best Scene: 8,000 Feet
  Best Character: Bill Marks
  Best Aspect: Suspense

  Non Stop is far more compelling than I expected it to be. Once again, Liam Neeson assumes the role of a hardened hero — this time as an Air Marshall — and he knocks it out of the park. Neeson is so believable as…

  The Parent Trap 1998

  ★★★½ Rewatched 18 Nov 2023 2

  “Them. T-H-E-M, them. Get the picture?” 👍🏼

  Best Performance: Lindsey Lohan
  Best Scene: Camping
  Best Character: Annie/Hallie
  Best Aspect: Emotion

  I have so much nostalgia for The Parent Trap. I just remember watching numerous parts over and over again, especially the camping trip, which still makes me laugh to this day. There is simply a lot of charm in this story of a reuniting family and it is brought to life by a cast that pulls it all together. With…

  Napoleon 2023

  ★★½ Watched 23 Nov 2023 16

  “I am the first to admit when I make a mistake. I simply never do.” ⚠️

  Best Performance: Vanessa Kirby
  Best Scene: Battle of Austerlitz
  Best Character: Napoleon Bonaparte
  Best Aspect: Dark Comedy

  Napoleon is exactly what was expected, but also not at all what was anticipated. This is another miss from Ridley Scott and it is especially unfortunate because all the pieces were there. Napoleon fumbles due to self-sabotage.

  The Positives:
  - The first half is genuinely a dark comedy.…

  Top Gun: Maverick 2022

  ★★★★★ Watched 30 May 2022 18

  “It’s not the plane. It’s the pilot.” ⭐️

  Best Scene: Final Mission

  Top Gun: Maverick is a masterpiece. When it comes to pure entertainment, this is up there with the best of the best. Out of any actor working today, Tom Cruise has the best goal in mind when making a film. He wants to give 100%, hold everyone to a high standard, and make the most entertaining film possible. He succeeded in all three because I struggle to find…
