    Devotion Review

    I have not heard about Jesse Brown until I watched Devotion. Devotion tells the story of the first African-American U.S. Navy fighter pilot who fought during the Korean War and beautifully shares this story with the viewer. The movie focuses on not only the struggles that Jesse went through while serving but also highlights the…

    Blue’s Big City Adventure Review

    Blue’s Big City Adventure is a fantastic journey in believing in yourself and having fun in the city. The movie gives us the familiarity of the television show but expands that with more songs, dances, and characters. Fans of the show will love spending time with Josh and Blue while they go to audition for…

    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Review

    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever continues the legacy of Chadwick Boseman in a sequel that helps us greive his loss and look towards the future. At a runtime of 2 hours and 41 minutes we are given a great story but the time could have been used to either give more character development to some characters…

    E.T. THE EXTRA TERRESTRIAL 40TH ANNIVERSARY Review

    I remember seeing E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial in the theaters with my family. I can’t remember the number of times that we saw it but I pretty much knew the dialogue by heart. E.T. is one of those movies that whenever I catch it on television I stop everything I am doing and sit down to…

The fictional character slowly becomes a projected version of the author. Through the character, the author is able to feel safe and share more of themselves than…
