    Review: This movie was not that good. I was a little disappointed because the cast and director were all decent. It just felt like they all phoned this one in. Don’t waste your time like I did.

    Any Bias? None. I haven’t read the book, so I went in blind.

    Review: I honestly really enjoyed this movie. Despite it’s long runtime, it did not feel long at all. Pacing was good and I thought the movie was well done. I really don’t have much more to say other than I would recommend watching it.

    Any Bias? Yup, I grew up playing the games and love them. I’m a huge Mario fan!

    Review: While I enjoyed it overall, I felt like it was missing something. It’s like they failed to capture that Mario magic they captured so well in the first one. Some scenes felt forced and rushed in general. This is not a complete waste of time to watch, just don’t really expect terribly too much from it.

    Any Bias? Yup, I grew up playing the games and love them. I’m a huge MK fan.

    Review: Just like the games, MK II was better than MK I (2021) in every way. The movie won’t win awards, but it was a fun watch! I enjoyed it. The actress who played Kitana did an awesome job. So did Josh Lawson as Kano, he stole the scene every time. I was a little skeptical when they announced that Karl Urban was going to play Johnny Cage, but he did great. Karl Urban in general is great, I just wasn’t sure if he was the right fit for this role. I was wrong lol Worth watching if you’re in the mood for a movie like this.

  • Michael (2026)

    Rating: PG-13

    Movie Info: Please visit IMDb for more information on this movie: Michael (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: You can rent or purchase this movie at most digital movie retailers. As of this writing, it’s not available on any streaming service.

    Any Bias? Yup, I grew up on & love Michael’s music. Since some of the same people who worked on Bohemian Rhapsody were behind it, I was expecting good things.

    Review: I thought it was pretty good! Jaafar did an amazing job! You could tell that not only did he put in a lot of work practicing, etc, but that he really cared about how he portrayed his uncle. Just an all around amazing job. The movie does have its flaws of course, but the good far outweigh the bad in my opinion. I’d say it’s worth your time watching.

    Any Bias? Yup, I am a huge fan of the first movie and a huge fan of Samara Weaving & Kathryn Newton. So, going in, I was expecting to like this movie.

    Review: Finally watched this & it was great! The first one was a fun watch & honestly the sequel was just as good or better. Samara & Kathryn play off each other so well.

    If you’ve never seen the first one, watch it & then watch the sequel. Well worth it.

  • Hello world!

    Hello! My name is Issa and I like watching movies. I am starting this blog to share my thoughts on them, quickly. Meaning, no deep dives, just a few sentences of my thoughts and my recommendation on whether I think the movie is worth your time.

    Unfortunately, I won’t always have the time to watch the latest movies, so my reviews won’t always coincide with the latest releases.

    With that said, welcome & I hope you enjoy my blog! Please do not mind the mess or should I say, emptiness, while I get this blog up and running 🙂
