Poor Things Movie Review
Yorgos Lanthimos is one of the most unique and dynamic indie filmmakers in the industry; his style, use of black comedy and an often bonkers presentation are unlike anything else on the silver screen. Having established his presence with The Lobster and The Favourite, he now turns his attention to the adaptation scene with Poor Things. It’s another fascinating and impeccably produced project.

Rebel Moon is the Future of Entertainment. Top Story - December 2023.
CAUTION: SPOILERS AHEAD. There is no nice way of putting it. Rebel Moon is terrible. But not terrible for the reasons that most people have noticed. After being out for a little less than two weeks, most people have panned the movie for what it is. A sloppy, copy and paste job of some of the most popular science fiction franchises. However, Rebel Moon is far more problematic than that. It goes beyond common sci-fi tropes. It mashes together nearly every successful genre possible in hopes of appealing to the majority people. In doing this, it is everything and nothing at once.
