‘They Will Kill You’ review
Campy, funny, and absorbing Is this better than Ready or Not 2? Written by Wowie Lagman It’s interesting that They Will Kill You was shown in the same week Ready or Not 2: Here I Come hit cinemas. It’s a battle of the survival horror comedies. And, at first glance, it seems like the latter […]
‘The Super Mario Galaxy Movie’ review
Visually stunning but has a thin plot The sequel is a feast for the eyes. Don’t expect anything profound, though. Written by Wowie Lagman The Super Mario Galaxy Movie will delight hardcore fans and kids with its brilliant imagery. There’s not much in here in terms of story and character development, so if you’re that […]
‘Ready or Not 2: Here I Come’ review
More blood, more fun. But is it better? Warning: some spoilers ahead! Written by Wowie Lagman Blood is thicker than survival in the new Ready or Not movie–and there is a lot of that here. Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillet were aiming for something bigger with Ready or Not 2: Here I Come and […]
‘Project Hail Mary’ review
A delightful crowd pleaser This is easily one of the best men-in-space movies in decades Written by Wowie Lagman Could this be one of best sci-fi movies, question? Answer is ‘yes,’ statement. There are so many elements that worked well for Project Hail Mary, the latest from directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller (Cloudy with […]
‘The Bride!’ review: stitched together stylishly
Just like the story from which the movie was based on, the film feels stitched together from wildly different parts. Director Maggie Gyllenhaal has created a strange yet stylish reinvention of the Frankenstein myth that explores love, loneliness, feminism, and justice, among others. In the movie, Frankenstein’s monster (Christian Bale) goes to Chicago in search […]

Whether you are a long-time fan or someone who has never answered a suspicious phone call from Woodsboro, we’ve compiled some of what we know so far […]
‘Crime 101’ review
A satisfying slowburn Well-written script, solid story, and great cinematography elevate the movie’s appeal Crime thrillers are often characterized by high-octane car chases and unrelenting action to be effective. They need to have elaborate storylines that will push its characters to the limits to pull off a satisfying end. But that doesn’t apply every time. […]
‘Hamnet’ review: delightfully painful
Chloe Zhao’s Hamnet surprised—delighted, actually—me at its final act. At the start of the movie, I thought that it would be an adaptation of William Shakespeare’s longest play, Hamlet. Although it’s been ages since we studied the tragedy, I was quite certain during the first thirty minutes that what’s unfolding on the screen isn’t like […]
‘Wuthering Heights’ review: a cautionary tale
I think it’s clever that Wuthering Heights features actors who have some of the most beautiful faces in the industry today. Superficial as it sounds, their looks are most probably the only thing that will keep you from disliking the movie. Or I could be wrong. Because the movie is delightfully indulgent. I haven’t finished […]
‘Send Help’ review: Who will outwit, outplay, and outlast?
If Survivor would become a movie, this is probably it. In Send Help, director Sam Raimi returned to form by bringing together survival horror, dark comedy, and character study by putting two characters who are polar opposites in an environment where they are forced to, just like in the reality TV behemoth, outlast the elements […]
