I still remember when I first heard the news back in 2018 that captivated the world. It was during the Summer time when 12 soccer players, aged 11-16, and their assistant soccer coach decided to enter the Tham Luang cave after their football practice. I'd think it was a nice way to cool off after …

Trailer Spotlight: The Banshees of Inisherin with Brendan Gleeson + Colin Farrell
As Summer is winding down, I'm definitely looking forward to Fall movies! Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell reunite in Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin since In Bruges (2008). I love In Bruges which inspired my trip with my hubby in 2014. It's been four years since McDonagh won an Oscar for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, …

FlixChatter Review: Bullet Train (2022)
Bullet Train is billed as an action comedy where a down-on-his-luck hitman boards a train filled with fellow assassins whose missions are somehow interconnected. It looks like something out of a violent graphic novel, but it’s actually based on Kotoro Isaka’s Japanese best-selling novel with Japanese characters.

FlixChatter Review: The Gray Man (2022)
Another week, another big, expensive but soulless Netflix blockbuster. It’s no wonder they’re losing subscribers by the thousands with this kind of quantity over quality mentality. It doesn’t help that the streaming subscription is getting more and more expensive, it’ll cost us $15.49 per month in August. Undoubtedly Netflix is seeking a lucrative action franchise to …
FlixChatter Review: Jordan Peele’s NOPE(2022)
A movie trailer’s main function is to advertise a future coming attraction. In essence, it is a commercial, announcing to the masses of so and so’s new movie, starring so and so, and so forth. But film trailers can also be an art form. The worst example of this is the annoying trailer for Bullet …
