Villainess Review: Emma Sanders (You Can Never Go Home Again)
I always get excited when a new month begins in the world of Lifetime movies; mainly because each month brings a new theme for its films. Of course, I love the month of March anyway for sports reasons and it's my birth month, but regarding this March, the first Lifetime movie in the year's 3rd month was You Can Never Go Home Again, and it centered on Isabel "Izzy" Fletcher, an artist whose mother, famed artist May Malcolm, tragically passed away. Afterwards, Izzy, her husband Jack Fletcher, and their young daughter, Taylor, move to Jack's hometown of Clinton, Mississippi, and we later see Taylor and Jack being introduced to the former's teacher, Emma Sanders.
Clyde E. DawkinsPublished 2 years ago in GeeksMovie Review: 'Huda's Salon'
Huda’s Salon begins on the most mundane note. Two women in a hair salon are having a conversation typical of the setting. Huda (Manal Awad) is a kindly hairdresser having a friendly working friendship with Reema (Maisa Abd Elhadi). For nearly 10 minutes we listen as Reema explains the trouble in her marriage to Said (Samer Bisharat) and how controlling and jealous he is. If you are paying attention you can see a quick shift in Huda’s demeanor as the conversation turns to Said and his jealousy. It’s subtle but it’s there and it is the trigger for the rest of the story.

Review: "The Batman"
The character of Batman has been synonymous with film ever since he appeared in Tim Burton's take of the Caped Crusader back in the late 80s. It is easy to say that the character will forever be a staple in movie theaters, but many would argue that no film has truly captured what makes the great so great on the comic book panels. Until now. Burton's take on the character was much more cartoonish, Nolan's was more realistic and grounded in reality stripping away any of the larger-than-life elements of the character. Matt Reeves noir thriller film feels like it is straight ripped from the pages of many comic book fans' beloved stories. Reeves depiction of Gotham feels alive, and terrifying in its musty and moody crime-filled streets. It clearly draws inspiration from "The Long Halloween" and "No Man's Land", two stories that were loosely used even in Nolan's trilogy. Some may find fault in how each iteration of Batman has gotten darker and darker, but the character and the world he occupies need to be closer to what Reeves has crafted with this film for it to truly work.
Nick CavuotiPublished 2 years ago in Geeks Documentary Review: 'Batman & Me'
Batman & Me is a meandering and mildly entertaining documentary about one man’s obsession with collecting. You might assume that the movie is about what drives someone to become obsessed with a particular brand of pop culture to an all-encompassing degree. The reality is sadly more mundane and mildly amusing. Though the documentary seems to promise a greater insight into the mind of collectors, what we ultimately get in Batman & Me is that sometimes people become obsessed and it’s only a notable aspect of their life.

In 1970 a man named Michael Brody, the little known heir to a margarine fortune, became the most talked about person on the planet by offering to give away his multi-million dollar fortune. A self-described hippie, Michael Brody had been known by friends as a lonely but very generous young man. Mostly abandoned by his rich parents, Michael grew up in the care of nannies and housekeepers and developed a disdain for the fortune he would one day inherit.

The legacy of the first American Godzilla film is that it showed that yes, CGI can help make a film where Godzilla does more. But it also showed that people wanted to see the real, classic Godzilla, updated for modern times. Thus was born the third period of Godzilla films, which really was a culmination of everything that made the previous two series great: Better effects, ongoing plot and character development, and human characters who weren't annoying throw-away characters you just wanted to fast-forward through.

Svetlana SterlinPublished 2 years ago in Geeks6 Tips for Rookie Filmmakers
1. Ignore the length. So often, when trying to write a script or produce a film, we focus so much on meeting a certain length to fulfill an expectation. However, you might be so focused on pumping out your first feature film that you end up sacrificing quality and making scenes painstakingly long. Perhaps too much exponential dialogue or sequences.

In December, I went and saw Spiderman: No Way Home and The Matrix Resurrections. Both were full of attempts to drum up fan nostalgia. One movie did it well. The other used it for a cash grab. Guess which one was which.
