Review: Coming 2 America (2021)
Official Synopsis: Needing a male heir to the throne, Prince Azeem returns to Queens, N.Y., to find his long-lost son and bring him back to Zamunda. Coming 2 America is the long awaited sequel to the 1988 film Coming to America. After over 32 years, I guess the main question on everyone's minds is, was it worth the wait? Coming to America was released at the height of Eddie Murphy's fame. Although Coming 2 America was nothing special story wise, it does offer some decent en


Review: WandaVision - Season 1 (2021)
Official Synopsis: Living idealized suburban lives, super-powered beings Wanda and Vision begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems. Even though it seems to start off slowly, WandaVision really starts to pick up at episode 4. The first couple episodes are genuinely quite bizarre and confusing but they do help set the tone and stage for the later episodes. As the series progresses, you're slowly rewarded with answers to the mysteries of Westview and a treasure trov

Review: Flora & Ulysses (2021)
Official Synopsis: An imaginative and creative 10-year old cynic never could have predicted that her little squirrel would be born anew as a superhero and have the uncanny knack for helping her and the lovable but broken people in her life. I'm not exactly sure how I managed to watch this entire film. Its not a bad film but its clearly a family friendly film intended for much younger audiences. I'm a huge fan of the superhero genre and I love many of the actors from other t

For anyone that watched Karate Kid while growing up, Cobra Kai is nonstop nostalgia galore. From various flashbacks to the films to sobering memorials of Mr. Miyagi, Cobra Kai has it all! They even film parts of it at the Miyagi dojo f


Review: Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol (2020)
Official Synopsis: A pianist hits rock bottom and finds herself at a piano academy in a small village where she falls in love with a mystery man.

Review: The Grand Tour Presents: A Massive Hunt (2020)
Official Synopsis: Hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May journey through Madagascar in search of buried treasure. In this mini-film, the trio are back again! This time searching for buried treasure. As a long time fan since Top Gear, this was a must watch for me. I wasn't a fan of the The Grand Tour's first season because I thought it felt too scripted. Even it got much better with later seasons, we have some of those cringe moments in this mini-film as we


Review: James May: Oh Cook! - Season 1 (2020)
Official Synopsis: James May provides a unique perspective on kitchen creations for those who don't know how to cook. As a long time fan of Top Gear and James May television programs and appearances, I was elated when this series came out. In this Amazon Original series, James May stars for the first time in his very own cooking show! With the help of his sidekick home economist (Nikki Morgan), James presents and cooks for us a couple of recipes. It was really refreshing t


Review: The Queen's Gambit (2020)
Official Synopsis: Set during the Cold War era, orphaned chess prodigy Beth Harmon struggles with addiction in a quest to become the greatest chess player in the world. This series was fantastic! Queen's Gambit is mesmerizing and intelligent. Its hard to capture the intensity for such a cerebral game and yet The Queen's Gambit accomplishes it without sacrificing much in terms of accuracy. It doesn't seek to dumb down the game for the general audience but instead offers rea


Review: Emily in Paris - Season 1 (2020)
Official Synopsis: Chicago marketing executive Emily Cooper is hired to provide an American perspective at a marketing firm in Paris. Emily in Paris is a show about a naive young woman being thrown into an unfamiliar setting. With Darren Star as the creator, this show reminded me a lot of Sex and the City. It focuses a lot on her romantic adventures as she struggles to fit into her new environment. It romanticizes life in Paris while gently reinforcing every single French
