Oppenheimer But Not As Great (Though Still Good)

D-Day remains one of the most important days in US history. The anniversary was actually 3 days ago. Pressure centers on the EXTREMELY intense few days leading up to D-Day as James Stagg clashes with the not-yet President Eisenhower (general at the time) and several others on when is the best day for D-Day in terms of the weather.

I really liked this movie. It did remind me of Oppenheimer, granted they both centered around notable milestones during WW2. What I love the most about this movie is that you could literally feel the tension from everyone and everything in the days leading up to D-Day. I could only imagine the amount of pressure (no pun intended) everyone felt during those days. The acting was pretty solid and the cinematography was gorgeous (though not as good as Project Hail Mary's).

My only issue with the movie is that I feel like we only witnessed the surface of how good this movie was. Don't get me wrong, the movie was still good. But I feel like it had the tools to be great that it did not fully use. Did I expect this to be as good as Oppenheimer, HELL NO! And it sure as Hell wasn't going to be as LONG as Oppenheimer. But due to certain moments in the film that I felt like either could've been drawn out or touched upon a little bit more (especially towards the end), I wonder if this movie could've been amazing.

Regardless, I do highly recommend this movie. 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...
