FlixChatter Review: HOLLAND (2025) – Nicole Kidman leads an excellent cast, alas, all that buildup fails to deliver a satisfying ending

When I saw the trailer for this, I was immediately intrigued, as my husband and I went to Holland, Michigan, a few years ago to look at their famous tulips. This quaint Dutch town really comes alive in May during Tulip Time Festival, and this event is actually featured in the movie. Set in the …

FlixChatter Review: A Family Affair (2024)–this Netflix age-gap rom-com is in dire need of a facelift

I have a love-hate relationship with rom-coms. It’s not my go-to genre (unless it’s written/directed by Nora Ephron or Richard Curtis) because I think it’s really tough to write for this genre without succumbing to clichés. The pairing of Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron piqued my curiosity, though they apparently had played lovers on screen before …

FlixChatter Review: AQUAMAN (2018)

I’m not the biggest comic book reader, in my younger years I’ve only read Batman and The Punisher comics. So, I’ve only learned about Aquaman from the show Entourage. During that show’s second season, its star ended up playing Aquaman and fans of the comic were hoping an actual film based on the character would …
