When I first saw the trailer for HOTEL MUMBAI, I was definitely intrigued despite not remembering much of the actual events that happened in 2008. I don't usually go for dramatizations of true events, especially when it comes to disaster/calamity. Yet there's something about this one that appealed to me. It opens with the attackers …

FlixChatter Review: Shazam! (2019)
There's such a huge anticipation over this movie, and the early reviews have been giddily-positive. I have to say I was caught in a bit of Shazam! fever as well after seeing the second trailer, which promises a boisterous good time.

FlixChatter Review: CAPTAIN MARVEL (2019)
I think it goes without saying that Captain Marvel is an important milestone. It's not the first movie featuring a female superhero, but it's the first out of the gate out of the behemoth Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Honestly, I try to tune out the buzz around this movie, something that's getting increasingly difficult in …
FlixChatter Review: TRIPLE FRONTIER (2019)
As of last October, Netflix began offering press screenings for its original movies. Yet for some reason, this is the first time I'm seeing a Netflix Original Movie on the big screen.
