Movie Review: 'Pooling to Paradise'
Pooling to Paradise stars Lynn Chen as Jenny, an uptight Mommy Blogger who is late to getting to the airport for a weekend away from her family in Las Vegas. Jenny has used an app to get a ride share to the airport but she’s accidentally booked it as a carpool rather than a quick solo ride to LAX, much to her horror. Her driver, Marc (Jordan Carlos), with a C, he’s very specific about that, is a bit of a space cadet, seemingly oblivious and possibly a little buzzed.

About nine years ago I saw Nagesh Kukunoor's Dor. It is in Hindi and was produced in India. It is one of the finest movies I have ever seen. Recently I saw it again. I wanted to pay tribute to this beautiful movie.
Anshuman KumarPublished 3 years ago in GeeksThe film: Babel
Babel. The definition of the word Babel is a scene of noise where many voices create confusion (Merriam Webster, 2018). This is exactly what the film, Babel is, jumping from scene to scene to challenge and confuse the audience, and yet ingeniously forcing them to link scenes and infer the deeper meaning. Throughout the narrative film, Babel, director Alejandro González Iñárritu, effectively illustrates the cultural diversity, experiences, people and places to challenge young people to formulate opinions and to empathise. Accordingly, as targeted audiences watch this film, the director successfully begins to eliminate prejudice, judgement and stereotypes that are prevalent in society. Additionally, the use of multiple cultures became an effective, non-bias and creative manipulation in the film that victimised more than one culture, whether developed or undeveloped. The film techniques, camera shots and themes helped expose the young audiences to display the confronting reality of poverty, relationship conflict and miscommunication.
‘Vivo’ Review—Vivid, Vibrant, Victory
This is a review for Vivo, which you cannot watch on TiVo; it’s a movie from Sony, it’s not about a pony, it’s about a kinkajou, the cutest animal since Pikachu!
Jonathan SimPublished 3 years ago in GeeksMovie Review: 'The Green Knight'
The Green Knight marks the first time I have really connected with the work of director David Lowery. Prior to The Green Knight I’ve carried a rather adversarial relationship with Lowery’s work. His A Ghost Story was, for me, an impenetrable piece of arty claptrap. I was so frustrated by the movie that I never gave it another chance to explain itself. I’m told by other critics that there is a wealth of interpretations of the movie and that it leaves open myriad possibilities with viewers. I understand why others would find that fascinating but it still hasn’t made me want to watch Casey Affleck stand around in a bed sheet for over 100 minutes.
Sean PatrickPublished 3 years ago in GeeksMovie Review: 'Man Under Table'
Man Under Table is a lively and odd mix of Hollywood satire and self-referential humor about a filmmaker fighting with imposter syndrome. Written, directed by and starring Noel David Taylor, there is nothing remotely traditional about Man Under Table and yet the themes will be familiar to anyone who has struggled with watching others succeed while failing to find success for yourself, simultaneously blaming the world for your failure while castigating the world for not letting you succeed.
Sean PatrickPublished 3 years ago in GeeksMovie Review: 'Jungle Cruise'
Jungle Cruise is a movie that exists. I should probably end this review right there as that is the only thing that needs to be acknowledged regarding Jungle Cruise. It’s a movie that people made and now it exists within the world. There is nothing remotely special about this fact or anything remotely negative about this fact. Jungle Cruise exists within the benign, a condition of existence that is at once harmless and but not exactly pleasant.
Sean PatrickPublished 3 years ago in GeeksThe Jungle Cruise Review
As I prepared to bring my family to see Jungle cruise we stowed away some snacks and adult beverages and set out to theater not really knowing at what level to place my expectation.
Kenneth cruzPublished 3 years ago in GeeksMovie Review: 'Twist'
Few movies scream ‘How do you do fellow kids’ louder than the new action comedy Twist. Twist takes pieces of Charles Dickens’ literary legend and crosses it with parkour and a pop soundtrack, along with several nods to Banksy, to hip up the Dickens classic. Because of course, the last thing kids want is to read a book that has stood the test of time as a classic work of literature for more than a century.
Sean PatrickPublished 3 years ago in GeeksVillainess Review: Annie Weaver (Am I a Serial Killer?)
2019's Am I a Serial Killer? was quite an interesting Lifetime film full of twists and turns. The film centered on Natalie, an 18-year-old girl living with her aunt, Caroline Weaver, having done so in the eight years that passed since Natalie's mother, Annie Weaver, was convicted of killing couple Lucy and Frank Miller. The Millers had been living in a room at Annie's mother's old home, but they were suddenly murdered when Natalie was 10 years of age, and it was Natalie who testified against Annie, leading to Annie's conviction.

In the eyes of Deena Johnson (Kiana Madeira), life couldn't be more miserable. After all she's stuck in Shadyside--a town dubbed "Killer Capital, USA" due to the endless string of savage murder sprees that have struck the community over the years. In addition to the usual high school beats, Deena also has to contend with a perpetually absent father and having been abandoned by her ex-girlfriend Sam Fraser (Olivia Scott Welch), who moved to the neighboring town of Sunnyvale.
