I recently watched The prestige (2006). Very good film about two magicians and their conflict with each other. Every day they are parted between real world and would of illusion, such strong battle which becomes their obsession.

I recommend Knives out (2019) and Knives out: glass onion (2022). Both are the mystery movies with main character Benoa Blanc (Daniel Craig), famous detective. He is in both movies called to solve murder mystery. I can say that the first movie was better it was more mysterious and unpredictable then the other one but both are worth watching.

Haunted Mansion 2023 was a nice surprise. It's similar to the 90s family horror films I grew up on. Where it's part spooky, part comedic, and has heart. This is the kind of movie we don't get often enough these days.

The Edge is a late 90s Anthony Hopkins film where he gets stranded with a man who may want him dead. Its concept title was Bookworm and I love the idea of someone whose spent a lifetime learning survival info having to test their abilities in the wild. That aspect is handled really well. It does a good job of mixing man vs. nature and man vs. man in a manner that is engaging and fun.

I just watched The Batman 2022 last week. I always wanted to watch it. It was the best of all the Batmans. Robert Pattinson has done a great job in this movie. I loved it, 10/10!

Latest Review: The Girl Who Knew Da Vinci by Belle Ami

Post by Nimra Kiran »

I saw "The Da Vinci Code" and I don't think I understood it entirely.. :(
It was so confusing and one thing leads to ten other discoveries and I couldn't grasp everything entirely. Yet, it was still interesting, Crime, thrill, violence, and friendship were the main themes of the movie. Intriguing!

I saw Furious X last. I did not like it much. Call it my bias, but the plot was just filled with driving, bombing, and more driving. The only thing that kept me going was the Villain. I think it is the guy that plays Aquaman. He was quite funny and made the movie a bit bearable to me. I rate it 5 out of 10

I would love to watch the little mermaid. I don't know why I haven't seen it yet. Now Barbie is out and I can't wait to see that. I don't know if I ever will though.

Ohhh. Batman. I will not watch this until I watch all previous Batman movies. I do not think I will understand it well enough if I do not start from the beginning.

Da Vinci code is easily one of the most confusing and bewildering movie ever. I read the book and was left dazed. I thought the movie will answer some questions I had. Alas, I was wrong.

You did not tell a single lie. I was in awe of everything I saw. The only part that made me sad was that history was not taken into account in the production of the movie. The female warriors were not the heroes they were portrayed to be in the movie.
