Hi Everyone.
I loved "Eat, pray, love". Maybe the reason it didn't get many high reviews was that the reviewers have not gone through, or have not been in that state of mind before. Just my two cents.. Happy reading everyone. I'm new here and look forward to interacting more with all of you.

The last movie i watched was purple hearts. i have to say it is the most emotional, exciting movie i have watched this year. The idea of getting in a relationship with someone you don not know if you are going to see them again as soon as they leave for war is very scary. An d the setting was also different from other love and war movies i have watched before. I fell in-love with purple hearts.

The Man from Toronto
Kevin Hart was superb as usual in the movie. However, I rated it 4/5 because of the unrealistic scenes.

The last movie I saw was Nope.
It is a nice movie with a charismatic female lead. It is a movie that scary without necessary jump-scares.

I rate the movie a 4/5.

It really is an interesting watch. I love how they play around with the world and time and physics. I also think that every season gets more unhinged and enjoyable as you watch

We just watched Elvis last night. I am a HUGE Baz Luhrmann fan, so I was really looking forward to this one. It did not disappoint, although if you are looking for a historical biopic, this one isn't it. It's basically accurate, but it takes some artistic liberties. Austin Butler is AMAZING in the lead role!

I watched "Dave Made a Maze' with my Dad last Friday. It was definitely really creative and well-edited for what I imagine was a small budget, but a lot of the humor didn't land with me. I just kind of felt disconnected from the story the whole time too; I never quite felt fully immersed in the story, despite being someone who's usually able to, and a lot of the acting landed flat. I would probably give it a 6/10 overall; not my favorite, but not the worst, either. I would definitely watch it over any movie I actually hate.

The last movie I saw was "Kill the messenger". I like that movie so much specifically because it was based on the amazing real story of newspaper publisher Garry Webbs. He was the one that uncovered the roots of illegall financing of the US government to a foreign war cause. The government would let others smuggle drugs into the country and use their money to give that country money to purchase arms.

The last movie I saw was titles Money Heist. It had four seasons that were highly engaging and thriling. One of my favourite characters was Tokyo. Towards the end, she died. I was so devastated that I lost excitement to complete the movie. How could that have happened? I felt she shouldn't have died in the movie, hence, I removed a stat from my rating. I gave the movie a rating of 3 out of four stars.

I think the last movie I saw was The Lost City and it was amazing! As a romance novel reader I am giving it 11/10. It is an amazing comedy, both leaning into stereotypes and breaking them in the best ways possible! I highly recommend if you are interested in something fun and lighthearted!

Citizen X

It is a true story about a serial killer in the Soviet Union who killed something like 50 people. It is currently available on You Tube for free.
It was, in my opinion, a very good movie.

You can see it here if you are interested but I don't know how long they will keep it online.

The last movie I saw was Top Gun Maverick. I will be surprised if it does not win several awards.
