I can’t remember the last time I saw a movie musical on the big screen, as somehow I missed the two recent musicals that I thoroughly enjoyed when they hit cinemas – The Greatest Showman and Mamma Mia 2. In the Heights was supposed to come out exactly a year ago, June 2020, but like …

FlixChatter Review: DREAM HORSE (2021)
There are no shortage of based-on-true-story movies out there, but I’m always up for uplifting stories, especially those that also offer escapism to a distant land on my bucket list!

Musings on the first 2 eps of LOKI series
When the first THOR movie came out in 2011, I instantly fell for Tom Hiddleston's LOKI and like many Hiddlestoners out there, I kept wishing there'll be a spin-off movie.

10 Memorable Scenes to celebrate Morgan Freeman’s 84th Birthday
Happy Belated Birthday, Morgan Freeman! The Memphis-born, Oscar- winning thespian just turned 84 years old yesterday, as he was born on June 1st, 1937. IMDb somehow did NOT include him in the list of birthdays on its homepage yesterday, so I thought I'd do a post to honor Mr. Freeman's towering cinematic achievements. I love …
