The movie that really stuck with me was Takers. I first watched in back in 2010 at the age of 9. Now the reason why the movie made an impact on me was because it just gave me this feeling of excitement all the intense scenes…

Scars of the movie Scarface (1983)
Scarface, directed by Brian De Palma, is the very definition of pump filmmaking. Though a product of its time (also the definition of 80’s movie-making), the manner and style of Scarface is just as capable today of phasing its audience as it was back in ’83. Al Pacino’s greatest performance, probably, is either between his…
Hello I will be reviewing Jurassic Park (1993). My first experience of the film was through the use of VHS. I have no memory of seeing the film for the first time. I do remember sitting in my fathers living room in front of a small tv with a very granny screen. While visiting my father…
Saving Mr. Banks
“Winds in the East, mist coming in. Like something is brewin’ and about to begin. Can’t put my finger on what lies in store, but I fear what’s to happen all happened before.” Travers Goff. These gentle words opened up my eyes to the world of Saving Mr. Banks one evening in 2013. My…
Is Mona Lisa Smile Really That Bad?
The very first time I watched Mona Lisa Smile, I was in middle school, and I was not too thrilled to be doing so. This was the era of “Captain America” and “Interstellar,” action movies that kept you on the edge of your seat, and frankly, this one just did not seem to meet the…
Emperor’s New Groove
One of the movies I can always go back and watch that had a huge impact on my youth would have to be Emperor’s New Groove and I can’t remember the exact age that I watched it but it was around 5 or 6. The reason I watched the movie was because of my sister…
Scariest Movie of All Time
I remember watching Insidious when I was browsing channels with my cousins when I was fourteen years old. I was never a fan of jump scares and not being to sleep at night because of a film. But I watch them because of the story. Insidious is not like any other film because of its…
Girl, you’re not “crazy”
Girl, Interrupted A deeper view of Girl, Interrupted By: Blake Voros 9/22/209 this is a trigger warning for anyone who hasn’t seen this movie and doesn’t know what to expect. This movie is rated r and is very EXPLICIT. it has a lot of mental health, rape, suicide, and triggering life events. If you get…
Appreciating the Hero’s Journey
I first saw the 2003 movie Return of the King when I was eight years old. It was the third and final film in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I watched it at home with my family, and I remember falling in love with the fictional world of Middle Earth. The film follows Frodo…
Memoirs of A Geisha
Growing up I fell in love with all kinds of movies because they give you hope but they also show you how ugly the world can be especially in another country. Memoirs of A Geisha impacted me in a way where I became interested in another culture. I re-watched this movie several times because I…
