Everytime I watch an American or Western show/movie I get disappointed. This show isn't an exception. Americans are obsessed with race for some weird reason. Woman got killed and press boss and his employ are talking that it's a white female. Why does it matter if it's a white or black female? Woman is dead, jesus christ... Well, it doesn't get better after that. Next scene we see in this first episode is a plain sex scene, where woman is almost close to finish. And of course couple is interracial and then husband is knocking on the door while wife and other man are busy in the bed. Husband re…

There are times in life when we find ourselves becoming inexplicably obsessed with embarking on certain tasks that we know we must complete, even if we’re not entirely sure why. One such venture is walking the 800-km path of El Camino de Santiago, a legendary pilgrimage route that extends from southwestern France across northern Spain to the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, where the remains of the apostle St. James are said to be buried. Many have made this journey over the centuries in hopes of finding personal meaning, one of whom was Australian filmmaker Bill Bennett, who ch…

Raimi is a good director. He has directed a good movie starring and incredibly good actress with good humour. And what a good movie it is. Like, it's Rachel. She's hot! She's a nice girl! Ohh. She's not hot? Wow! What a challenging, funny film.
One unfortunate thing about this good movie is that it's entirely stolen. I paid to go watch Triangle of Sadness x uhhh Oh, Hi! x uhhhh bunch of other movies. This movie existed before it existed. Its twists, turns and turbulence have all been done before and that is a shame. It's done well, though. I believe you will enjoy it.
I didn't remember t…

"Gog' Helen" is actually a 2012 film, not 2024. The film premiered at the Durban International Film Festival in 2012/2013. It appears there may be a re-release or streaming availability in 2024 on AfrolandTV, but the film itself is from 2012.
Nigerian-South African director Adze Ugah delivers a rollicking township action-comedy that proves you don't need a Hollywood budget to create genuine heart and thrills. Gog' Helen is a delightful caper that blends social commentary with laugh-out-loud moments, anchored by a powerhouse performance from veteran actress Lillian Dube.
The premise is b…

Sam Raimi’s Send Help is a brilliant, twisted exploration of the thin veneer of civilization, anchored by two of the most compelling performances in recent horror-comedy. The story thrives on a deliciously dark "eat the rich" premise: Linda Liddle, a mousey and overworked employee, finds herself the sole protector of her arrogant, incompetent boss, Bradley Preston, after their jet crashes on a remote island. What begins as a survival thriller quickly evolves into a psychological power struggle. The narrative shift from saving the boss to surviving the boss—and eventually subjugating the boss—i…

A genuinely unique and entertaining genre film. This isn't one of those it's so bad it's good type action movies. It has genuine proper care in it's storytelling and a clear love for the superhero and martial arts genre.
There's a lot of wild tone shifts here as it goes from low budget Raimi superhero action comedy to a darker tale about an older brother becoming a superhero to hunt down the pedophilia ring that abused his brother in the past. But despite the shifts, the film still works because these themes are imbued and timed perfectl…

Maddy, our suspected murderer from "Influencer", is on a search for CW to clear her name. What transpires is really something. The twisting and manipulation throughout the film is a bit harder to follow but still clear enough to know that CW is no amateur to destroying everyone around her. The climax is absolutely bonkers and fitting for a double feature viewing of both movies. The focus of influencers, podcats and social media is highlighted as a world where followers are the only currency of value. Don't know if they'll try for another sequel but a prequel?? -- DrNostromo.com…

“Gudo” is tasked with taking the recently deceased to the great waterfall where they are to depart for their reincarnation on it’s other side. That’s really only possible, though, if they are clear of knots on the threads of their lives. These are caused when a person has some source of resentment or anger accrued throughout their lifetime and the benign Goddess “Mira” has assigned him a particularly difficult task with “Yuri” whose history is intertwined with events from a life that has been fraught, at times difficult and left her angry. Only by working together to face down those demons can…

One of the most inspiring messages I’ve run across in my life maintains that “The greatest joy is in creation,” a message that, ironically, came my way via a Chinese fortune cookie just as I had begun work on my first book. The timing couldn’t have been better, as this sentiment fed directly into my writing. It proved to me at the time – and ever since – that creativity is essential to help keep us feeling young, fulfilled and vital. And that lesson has also been crucial in the lives and well-being of the residents of Casa Verdi, a retirement facility in Milan, Italy for aging musicians establ…
