Bland At Best

 




My aunt suggested I watch this just to see how bad it is. Trigger Warning is a Netflix film about a CIA military combatant who returns home after her father dies. Upon returning home, she goes up against a corrupt family who's been doing illegal activity at her father's mine, leading to the possibility that her father's death, may not be an accident.

While not as bad as I expected, this movie still isn't the greatest. It's mostly just bland, there's nothing really special about the story or the heroine. Jessica Alba has always been a bland actress, so that definitely played a part in the film's lack of memorability. There were also moments of the film that was overdramatic and slightly cheesy. One of the villain's death in particular was kind of stupid.

In terms of positives, the fight scenes were actually pretty good, sometimes random, but good. Alba was very handy with that knife, and deadly. I also liked the film's use of the song La Llorona. Very poignant.

The movie was just nothing special, and Madame Web is still the worst movie of the year. Thanks For Reading.

American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

  American Idol  has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries.

Introduction

Bio My name is Naomi Marie Elidios Chadwick. I was born in San Diego, California, but I currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada. I pretty much have a traditional family, which involves happily married parents, 1 younger sister, and an older brother. I was raised Christian, and I continue to practice Christianity to this day. This is not a spiritual blog but some of the content that I post is influenced by my faith. Every now and then I will post Christian content as well, just not always (except with Billboard ). The picture you see up above is me at the airport with my father after I graduated from AmeriCorps NCCC after 10 months of community service. In response I received a congressional award for community service. I've always been really proud of that. I was diagnosed with Asperger's (a form of Autism) around the age of 6, but I was not informed of my diagnosis until I was 12. I'm very into movies and television (animation especially), and pop culture as a whole, and I...

My Top 10 Best Movies Of 2024 (Part 2)

  So, now it’s time for the best list. This is obviously a list of what is in my opinion, the best movies of 2024. Before anything else, just a quick reminder that I have chosen not to review or rank the films  Mary  &  Dune: Part Two   due to my conflicting feelings on them. So you won’t see either of those 2 on this list. If you would like an explanation for 1 or both movies, there are 2 links down below. If there’s an acclaimed movie you were expecting to see on this list that you didn’t see, check out my “Movies You Won’t See” post through the link down below.  #10:  The Bikeriders God-honest truth, the main reason I saw this movie is because of my soft spot for Austin Butler. Though definitely not the strongest movie, this was really good. Its strong points were the performances and the twists. While Austin wasn’t THE standout, he did do a really good job and truly embraced his inner James Dean. The standout however was indeed Tom Ha...
