The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
6/7 🪩🪩🪩🪩🪩🪩 I don’t know what the haters were talking about because The Super Mario Bros. Movie was almost exactly what it needed to be: a bright, funny, fast-paced ride through some amazing IP. It fully embraces the Nintendo universe, packing every scene with little references, visual details, and Easter eggs that true fans can appreciate. The

Michael
6/7 🪩🪩🪩🪩🪩🪩 Michael healed something in me. Hearing so many of my favorite songs from childhood in a theater with great sound was an incredible experience. I found myself dancing in my seat alongside the people around me, and I honestly do not think I have ever had a moviegoing experience quite like that. Jam after jam,

Mother Mary
6/7 🪩🪩🪩🪩🪩🪩 I was not expecting this film to become what it ultimately became. I am not sure if I read the marketing wrong or if the film was intentionally positioned as a bit of a bait and switch, but I ended up loving it as an art film. That said, it is not a

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die
4/7 🪩 🪩 🪩 🪩 I really wanted to like Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die more. The trailer had me intrigued, and with Sam Rockwell involved, I thought this would be a home run. Unfortunately, it feels like the movie lost some of its magic in the editing room. Like Weapons and other films that split the story

Project Hail Mary
7/7 🪩 🪩 🪩🪩🪩🪩🪩 Project Hail Mary was such a pleasure to watch. Having read most of the book before seeing the film, I was really curious to see how the version in my head would compare to what ended up on screen. Overall, I think the movie absolutely did the book justice. I would

Hoppers
6/7 🪩 🪩 🪩🪩🪩🪩 Hoppers was a pleasant surprise. What starts out as a fun, classic comedy suddenly transforms into a chaotic adventure filled with emotion, meaning, and a surprising sense of transcendence. The movie really takes off about halfway through, and from that moment on it becomes something much bigger than you might expect. It’s

Solo Mio
5/7 🪩 🪩 🪩🪩🪩 Solo Mio is a classic love story with heart. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Italy, it follows a journey from embarrassment, loneliness, and pessimism to rediscovering that spark for love, joy, and adventure. At its core, the film is a rallying cry to reclaim your sense of purpose… to lean into

Pillion
6/7 🪩 🪩 🪩🪩🪩🪩 Pillion is very much a film for the LGBTQ+ community and its allies. Partly because, yes, there is a lot of gay sex, but what really drives the movie is its exploration of devotion, destruction, power, and identity. You’ll laugh at moments, feel deeply uncomfortable at others, and—perhaps most unsettling—see pieces of yourself reflected

Crime 101
5/7 🪩 🪩 🪩🪩🪩 This movie ended up being better than I expected, even though a few things were unexpectedly distracting along the way. There’s no denying Chris Hemsworth is an action star and perfectly built for a role like this. For the most part, he’s convincing as an American, but there are moments where his Australian

Eternity
6/7 🪩 🪩 🪩🪩🪩🪩 Callum Turner, Elizabeth Olsen, and Miles Teller are incredibly charismatic in this rewatchable modern love classic. Having seen it in theaters and then again at home, the film only proved how well it holds up on repeat viewings. I loved the quirky interpretation of the afterlife and the playful competition to
