After a long time I went to the cinema, seated myself in a chair, and from a seat far back I watched this film. I was not able to see all the acting details, since I was not as near seated as I wished, but I still saw this film…

I have always loved graphic novels/comic books, but when reading this story for the first time it truly opened my eyes. Previously, I had seen the world through the eyes of comics like W.I.T.C.H., Disney Princess, Winx Club, Archie and Donald Duck or from mangas. My first graphic novel/comic book…

I have been a longtime fan of the director of this film, and I am so glad I have the opportunity to see his films more, since many of his early works are now on YouTube with English subtitles, which helps immensely. Spoilers for the film below! “It’s a girl,”…

I have been following this book’s release for a long time, and finally I got a physical copy of it and read it so fast! I know I usually do film reviews, but this is a book which deserves a review of its own. I do hope people read it,…

I always love to see the original film/book, and then read/see all the remakes and reimaginings made from that source material. I did it a long time ago with Sairat (2015) and all of the other language remakes of it which I could find, which honestly do not compare to…

Sometimes you just have to write about a film which you don’t fully love, but like enough to watch occasionally. This is that kind of movie for me, it is not the best by the director, nor the best in the main actress’s filmography, but it is still a dish…
