“You cannot reason with a tiger when your head is in its mouth.” Winston Churchill delivered this line straight to Halifax’s face in the War Rooms, and somehow Halifax still didn’t get the point.

The Thursday Murder Club: A Cozy, Star-Studded Mystery That Delivers
Chris Columbus has done an excellent job with this murder mystery film. He has a special place in my heart already, as he directed the first two Harry Potter movies, which defined a big part of my childhood. That nostalgic affection probably made me even more excited to see his take on Richard Osman’s beloved novel. This…
MY LIFE WITH THE WALTER BOYES SEASON 2: A GLOW-UP WITHOUT THE SPARK
I loved Season 1 of My Life with the Walter Boys, but Season 2 made me question whether the magic is already gone. It felt repetitive to season one in the sense that you still have Alex riding his horse Murphy, only now he wants to get into rodeo riding. It’s like déjà vu with just…

“This is the messiness of life, and as an annoyingly brilliant man once told me, these are the best bits.” Sofia Carson is on fire with romantic comedies this year, first The Life List, and now My Oxford Year. She has this girl-next-door charm that fits perfectly with these roles. You genuinely believe her as Anna, an…
LOCH NESS REVIEW – A HAUNTING HIGHLAND WHODUNNIT WITH STUNNING SCENERY AND SLOW PACING
Loch Ness is a gripping crime drama set against the hauntingly beautiful backdrop of the Scottish Highlands. While the show delivers strong suspense and an intriguing mystery, its pacing can feel a little too slow at times, which may test the patience of some viewers. The story kicks off when a dead body is discovered near…
DIGGING DEEPER INTO THE AMY BRADLEY CASE: THOUGHTS AFTER HEARING HER BROTHER BRAD SPEAK OUT
After watching the recent Netflix documentary on the disappearance of Amy Bradley, I found myself with more questions than answers. While the documentary brought renewed attention to a case that’s haunted many for years, it also left out crucial perspectives especially those of Amy’s brother, Brad Bradley. In this article, I’ll share my thoughts on…
