Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood (2019)

It's one of the most absurdly entertaining films of the year so far. If you have been a Quentin Tarantino fan from the beginning or recently like me, you will be undoubtedly entertained watching this film. It is as wild and weird (in a good way) as you'd expect from a Tarantino flick. One of the most unique characteristics of some of his work is that it's unique, witty, action-packed and funny. This film shows all of those qualities in extraordinary fashion. If there is one film this year that is as wild as it is glorious, it's this film. Films that are based on real life have big shoes to fill because they have a responsibility to try and accurately depict true stories, in which their film is based on. It's one of my favorite genres of films and I love that this film, which embellishes the actuality of the events that this film is based on, it's one of the best true story films ever made. Legendary filmmaker Quentin Tarantino makes another absurdly wild and...

*If you haven't seen " Endgame" , don't read this review till you see it. This film takes place right after it and it's a huge spoiler if you just watch this instead of watching " Endgame" .

I was wanting more after seeing him for the first time. Now, fast-forward to the first film of his very own, 2017's " Spider-Man: Homecoming" . This film gave audiences a much more in depth take on the web- slinging hero we all know and love. The sequel to " Homecoming" , is much more action-packed, a dazzling spectacle than the first one. This film tops all other " Spider-Man"  films before this because it has more to offer fans and more than " Home...

Toy Story 4 (2019)

It's been 9 years since the 3rd and presumably final chapter in the " Toy Story" series nearly broke all of us emotionally. Now after much disagreement to make another film, the film is here and it is truly an end of an era. The 3rd film ended things on a high note- or so we all thought. This 4th and for sure final chapter is also a heart breaker and a crowd pleaser. This film may not be as emotional as the 3rd one but it's a delight for fans who've been with Woody & Buzz and the rest of the gang of toys all these years.  Director Josh Cooley makes a name for himself as this film is a joyful and entertaining sight to behold. The cleverness and genuine fresh and overall sense of closure is satisfying to see. The films story may not be as emotionally gripping as the third installment but it's still a good and pleasing one.  Returning one last time to voice our favorite characters are: Tom Hanks & Tim Allen plus newcomers to the film series Keanu R...
