Operation Mincemeat Review
Ewen Montagu -played by the always brilliant Colin Firth- and Charles Cholmondeley -played by a lesser-known Mathew Macfadyen , but whose interpretation does not go unnoticed- are two officers of the United Kingdom intelligence service who face a totally crazy operation: to pass off the corpse of a civilian for that of a British soldier, and thus deliver false information to the German enemy.

Top Gun: Maverick Is Here But Can It Deliver
At long last, Top Gun: Maverick is in theaters after delays and the Covid-19 pandemic.

Comic Book Movie Rewind
Next up on comic book movie rewind we have the original X-Men. Now this poor team has been through a lot as far as adaptations go, the original films as I recall were not truly terrible unlike their shifted timeline counterparts. The first of the trilogy was released in 2000 and was a phenomenally casted film. The acting was never anyone's issue with these films. However it has been almost a decade since I’ve watched these so let’s see how these hold up.

My Review of "Inception"
Inception is a totally wild movie that came out back in 2010. I saw it back when it first came out but I wasn't too sure how it would translate to opinion today. Originally I loved this movie. I thought it was fascinating and absurdly creative back in the day. The concept of the show is still wildly creative but I wanted to see if I could still get into it. It is after all a very long movie.

My Review of "Seven Samurai (1954)"
Seven Samurai (1954) is one of the most famed movies from Akira Kurosawa. There's so many movies, shows and books that take inspiration from this movie. Watching it you can see how much it has influenced pop culture today. As a movie to watch, I would say it's not for everyone.

The Heart of The Matter: Injecting Humanity Into History
History has always had a place amongst our various forms of storytelling. Back to the days of cave paintings, forward to the hieroglyphs of Egypt and the earliest days of cinematography, our history as a species has always had a part to play in the kinds of stories we tell. When it comes to historical films, many center around various wars and other such great hardships we have faced as a people. To that end, I would say the time periods who garner a major portion of our creative attentions would have to be between 1910 and 1960, with a heavy focus on the two World Wars. There are a vast array of films, each focusing on a different perspective and retelling of those years and what it meant to survive. What sacrifices were made as well as the horror stories we only discovered the true depths of in the years following the wars, have grown into some of the greatest works of cinema.
