Wedding Season
This movie was such a fun watch. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Had me laughing almost through the entire movie. Yeah, I know, some reviews say it's just an Indian adaptation of regular Hollywood romcoms but come on guys -It's romcom!! It kind of reminded me of the 'Social season' in Bridgerton. I really loved the laughs, gaffs, parents' schemes and 'blackmail', negotiations and of course the dance sequences and weddings, weddings, weddings. Suraj Sharma and Pallavi Sharda make a great onscreen couple as Ravi and Asha, the main leads. Although this is primarily a rom-com, it does highlight important themes and real-life lessons.

Black Adam Review
Dwayne The Rock Johnson has been tapped to play Black Adam since 2007. Now the world can finally see what he has been working on. Black Adam is supposed to be the next big thing for the DCEU and bridge the gap that the universe has been lacking up until this point.

Review of 'Cackle'
All her life, Annie has played it nice and safe. After being unceremoniously dumped by her longtime boyfriend, Annie seeks a fresh start. She accepts a teaching position that moves her from Manhattan to a small village upstate. She’s stunned by how perfect and picturesque the town is. The people are all friendly and warm. Her new apartment is dreamy too, minus the oddly persistent spider infestation. Then Annie meets Sophie. Beautiful, charming, magnetic Sophie, who takes a special interest in Annie, who wants to be her friend. More importantly, she wants Annie to stop apologizing and start living for herself. That’s how Sophie lives. Annie can’t help but gravitate toward the self-possessed Sophie, wanting to spend more and more time with her, despite the fact that the rest of the townsfolk seem…a little afraid of her. And like, okay. There are some things. Sophie’s appearance is uncanny and ageless, her mansion in the middle of the woods feels a little unearthly, and she does seem to wield a certain power…but she couldn’t be…could she?

Bay of Blood (1971) film review
Caution this contains spoilers. The horror delight of the week is A Bay of Blood (1971) directed by Mario Bava, also known as Blood Bath, or Carnage, Twitch of the Death Nerve; it stars Claudine Auger, Luigi Pistilli and Claudio Volonte. Far before the release of his own feature films (he would go on to release 24), Mario Bava worked as a screenwriter, cinematographer, and special effects artist for years. Known as the 'Master of Italian Horror', and 'The Master of Macabre', his giallo thrillers, stylishly violent, have had a large impact on the slashers that we acclaim today.

My Review of "Men in Black: International"
Men in Black: International came out back in 2019. It seems as though this franchise will never die. They have a new one when it gets close to 10 years from the previous one. This time we don't have our main character but we still have the main premise and same universe.

House of the Dragon
The penultimate episode of House of the Dragon dropped tonight and of course I have many thoughts. This episode was entitled the Green Council which led to a disappointing lack of Rhaenyra and Dameon. And as I am firmly on team Black this episode caused many reactions.

Anikulapo
This is one Nigerian movie you should definitely watch. Not only is it an epic historical and cultural masterpiece but it also gives a glimpse into Nigeria's pre-colonial life and times. Anikulapo is a beautifully produced work of art by a master storyteller that has not only elevated Nigerian culture but also garnered acceptability and love from viewers around the world earning it a number-one ranking on Netflix.
