Elio Review

 

I didn't expect much from Elio aside from it being cute, probably heartwarming and decently animated. After losing his parents, a pre-teen boy finds himself living with his aunt. Feeling that he doesn't belong, our titular character aspires to be abducted by aliens, and surprisingly received his wish. The only problem is they believe him to be the ambassador of Earth.

The movie was pretty much everything I expected; decent enough but nothing special. The story was sweet, but I feel like it's average in terms of Pixar standards. I felt the writers did not really push the boundaries of creativity and cohesiveness like the studio did last year with Inside Out 2 or like it used to do during the glory days. But it was cute, I did like the film as a whole. Its strong points were the score, the visuals (in space especially), and Glordon, he was ADORABLE!🥰

But other than that, the movie was just meh. Thanks For Reading

So.......The Bride😕

So I was completely off-track with The Bride . Did not expect the film to crash and burn as hard as it did with both critics AND the box-office. After getting murdered, a woman by the name of Ida is brought back to life with the intention of being a companion to the oh-so iconic Frankenstein. And together they wreck havoc. Like Wuthering Heights , the movie wasn't terrible but it had a lot of problems. The biggest issue with this film is that it tries way too hard to be edgy and it just doesn't work. It wanted to be this hardcore feminist take on Frankenstein , but it just felt convoluted and slightly underwritten. It had this plotline involving Ida causing some revolution for women and did pretty much nothing with it until the last minute. It was kind of a let down. The best thing about the movie however was the performances and chemistry between Buckley and Christian Bale. I thought they were strangely endearing, and this might be a better love story than Wuthering Heights  (...

Last Minute Music Reviews

  So here are some last minute reviews of songs that I've heard over the past few months that did not reach #1;   Where Is My Husband - Raye This is incredibly fun and strangely catchy. While this is not officially a jazz song, this obviously has jazz influence and it works very well for this song. I will go ahead and admit that this is my introduction to Raya, I have not listened to Oscar Winning Tears . So far, I'm intrigued.    Midnight Sun - Zara Larsson This song is kind of AWESOME. Not only is the production GORGEOUS, but it also has a very nice hook that goes smoothly with Larsson's voice. My sister actually recommended this song to me and I see why. Larsson does currently have a Grammy nomination for this. She's gonna lose, but I'm glad this song got recognized. If my sister see's this, thank you.   How It's Done - Huntrix (From KPop Demon Hunters ) I have been meaning to review this for a while, but I kept getting lazy. Like Golden , this song has g...
