Barbie – Film Review
I finally watched Barbie and found it a bit of a hot pink mess… but an entertaining, fun and refreshingly weird mess for sure.
The Graduate – Film Review
This witty 1967 comedy-drama about disaffected youth feels both dated and timeless, and holds up well thanks to the great performances, clever cinematography, legendary Simon & Garfunkel tunes, and one of the most memorable movie endings I can think of.
Little Shop of Horrors – Film Review
This movie was a blind streaming pick on a Sunday night; I had no idea what to expect, but a horror sci-fi comedy musical about a sentient bloodthirsty plant from outer space probably wouldn’t have been my first guess.

The Banshees of Inisherin – Film Review
I finally caught up with this movie in which writer-director Martin McDonagh reunites Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell in a quirky, sad and darkly hilarious tale about severed friendship on a remote island.

Elf – Film Review
‘Tis the season for Christmas movies, so I thought I’d get into the festive mood and check out this 2003 comedy with Will Ferrell.

I haven’t followed a legal TV drama since the heydays of The Practice and Ally McBeal, but recently I got sucked into watching this endearing, warm-hearted K-drama about a rookie attorney with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
The Worst Person in the World – Film Review
I really enjoyed this peculiar, freewheeling Norwegian dark comedy-drama about a young woman battling indecisiveness as she approaches 30s, despite some problems with the writing that made it feel a tad shallow.
