Filmmaking often looks glamorous from the outside the finished frames, the festival screenings, the cinematic escape. But as director and actor Josh Shea reminds us, the reality is far more grounded. It’s early mornings before sunrise, coffee in hand, and a quiet moment of disbelief where you ask yourself, what are we actually doing? In this…
Netflix has built a formidable reputation for true-crime documentaries that linger in the public consciousness long after the credits roll, and its output continues to outshine much of the competition. Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart, arriving at the start of 2026, is another unsettling but ultimately inspiring addition to that catalogue. The documentary revisits the horrific events of…
“Just because a man is an ally doesn’t mean that he is on your side.” I didn’t know much about the Nuremberg Trials that began in 1945, so this film turned out to be a genuinely insightful watch. I’ve always enjoyed war films, especially in recent years. Darkest Hour and 1917 were both brilliant and I’d comfortably add…
“It really was an adventure of a lifetime.” Those are the final words spoken in One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5, and they land with the kind of weight only a decade-long journey can earn. I started watching Stranger Things when I was 15 years old. Now I’m 25, and like the cast who grew…
Movies this year have truly started out with a bang, and People We Meet on Vacation was easily one of my most anticipated films. I’m happy to say it really did deliver. From the opening moments, it felt like the kind of romance movie we don’t get enough of anymore. Originally a novel by Emily Henry, this…
In my opinion, Stranger Things ended in the best possible way. Endings are hard especially for a show this loved, this long-running, and this layered but somehow the Duffer Brothers managed to pull it off. The finale was intense, emotional, clever, and most importantly, satisfying without being over-explained. The final fight scene alone proves how strong the…
Few rom-coms have aged as gracefully or as hilariously as When Harry Met Sally. “You’ll have what I’m having.” That line, shouted across a bustling New York deli, has become cinematic legend and perfectly sums up why this film continues to captivate audiences decades after its release. For those who haven’t seen it yet, here’s the…
(Spoilers Ahead) Stranger Things Volume 2 might be my favourite part of the entire show so far. From the pacing to the emotional payoff, it feels confident in what it’s doing and, more importantly, it knows that its strength lies in character rather than spectacle. The pacing is brilliant nothing feels rushed, but nothing drags…
With Volume 2 officially T minus 2 days, I wanted to sit down and write this now before everything changes and give my final predictions on who I think could die in the last three episodes of Stranger Things before the finale on the 31st. This isn’t something I’m doing lightly, because honestly, I’m not emotionally prepared…
When I look back at the films that mean the most to me, certain names come up again and again. These directors may work in completely different genres, but they all create stories that stay with me in one way or another. Christopher Nolan Interstellar, Oppenheimer, Inception, Dunkirk Nolan’s films were some of the first…
