A Real Pain & The Six Triple Eight

Here we have yet another double review. A Real Pain stars Jesse Eisenberg (who's also the director) and Kieran Culkin as 2 Jewish cousins who take a trip to Poland to visit the house and concentration camp of their dead grandma. The Six Triple Eight on the other hand stars Kerry Washington and was directed by Tyler Perry, centering on the struggle and eventual accomplishments of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion.

A Real Pain

A Real Pain was good, but I will admit that I wasn't blown away by it. I guess my expectations were just a little bit too high. Culkin (who will always be Roman Roy to me) was probably the best thing about the movie and is probably gonna win a Supporting Actor Oscar. Eisenberg was good too, and his direction was surprisingly better than I though it would be (for a semi- newcomer anyway). Overall, good movie. Just not great.

The Six Triple Eight

So Tyler Perry had 3 movies come out this year, and normally he sucks at his job. That was definitely the case with Mea Culpa and Divorce In The Black; so Why The HELL Was This Movie Actually Good!? Not only was Washington phenomenal in this, but Perry's direction was actually well paced. The movie is not perfect, but it's sure as Hell WAY too good for a Tyler Perry movie. Also, these women are entitled to our respect.

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. For those of you who didn't track these last year, here's an explanation; I will be saying my thoughts on the contestants and their performances. In typical 'me' fashion, I will rank each performance to #1. But unlike my normal lists, this will be from worst to best. This will be starting the following week as today is just an introduction. Our Top 24 has been chosen and they are as follows; Canaan James Hill (Platinum) Gabby Simone Zaylie Windsor Mattie Pruitt Thunderstorm Artis Drew Ryn Che ...

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...

First Day Of 2024/2025 Awards Race

It is about that time of year again where Hollywood gives out its most prestigious awards to most of the time the least deserving. But that doesn't mean I'm not gonna pay attention like always. But this year we will be shaking things up a little. Allow me to explain; Here's How This Works: Each year, I will have a target subject I'm rooting for this season. When the nominations for each award show are announced, I will do a small commentary on whether or not the subject has a chance of winning. However, this year instead of focusing on just the target, I will also be focusing on those I think are frontrunners in different categories for the season as a whole, whether I'm rooting for them or not. I will most likely say a last minute thought the day before the award show. I will be tracking down all the way up to the big dogs: THE OSCARS. The Awards: We will be focusing on 5 awards; -The Golden Globes -The BAFTA's -The Critics Choice -The SAG Awards and Of Cour...
