The 10 Best Films of 2021

Man, been a long time since I did one of these, hasn’t it? I can’t even give you a good reason why I have been slacking off on doing these apart from procrastination and a rough emotional hurdle that came as a result of the 2020 Pandemic and therapy work to purge myself of my toxic impulses and behaviors that has mentally held me back. But I digress. 2020 was a rough year to be a movie goer with the shutdown of movie theaters and everything having to go onto streaming services, it was hard to even put together a Best of list when everything seemed so awful, but 2021 had some encouragement with theaters reopening to allow for screenings again and with streaming services becoming the new distribution companies to permit for both theater and online streaming, it’s made accessing movies so much easier than it was before, as well as making it easier for me to choose whether to invest in real gems from the piles of garbage I’d rather not put my money into. It’s really saying something when

Matt Shepard Is A Friend of Mine review

This is a documentary film about Matt Shepard, a young man who was brutally murdered for being gay. This documentary included photos, home videos, and testimonies given by many family members and friends. I loved how it started off with everyone sharing common memories of him- you know, the normal every day stuff. They spoke about how he loved meeting people, how he had a stuffed bunny he liked, and how he was kindhearted to all the neighbors growing up. When documentaries start off like this I think it really helps me as the viewer connect with the character, as opposed to trying to figure him out throughout the entire film. Currently i

Free the Nipple Review

So we've all heard about the hype in Hollywood these days regarding nipples. It seems like I've heard constant news about famous people getting banned from Instagram due to photographs that show their nipples. This movie was about a group of women who decided to launch a campaign called “Free the Nipple” to try and essentially legalize the public showing of the female breasts. With this being a somewhat controversial topic right now, I was really interested in this movie. The film starts off with a group of women running shirtless through the streets of NYC. They get arrested by police, of course. A journalist standing by se

Best and Worst movies of 2012

Best and Worst movies of 2012 Well everyone, it's that time again, the new year is upon us and naturally, the cycle must start all over again. from January to April, we get crap. The movies that Hollywood couldn't release in December to avoid competing with the Oscar bait, unless you count certain foreign films that hasn't arrived in the country yet. From the three years I've been doing this unpaid gig, I've noticed a trend in the film industry for every year of movies released. The movies from January to April are usually the table scraps of Hollywood movies, usually just pertaining to the lowest common denominator. Does anyone really remem

Mission: Impssible 3 (2006) review

Mission: Impossible: III Directed by J.J. Abrams The Tom Cruise vehicle that has been the "Mission Impossible trilogy" (based on the classic television series) has for the most part been an uneven (often lackluster) film experience. `Mission: Impossible' released in 1996 directed by Brian De Pama had some action scenes that have since its release been parodied countless times, but its script lacked serious focus; often M:I becoming unnecessarily confusing for an inattentive audience member (or even an attentive viewer). Then John Woo gave it a fling with `Mission: Impossible: II'; a poor post-Matrix action movie which lacked a coherent plo

Midnight in Paris

After devoting a typical New York director, Woody Allen returns to its origins, changing the modern, bustling New York by the lush and magical Paris exchange that establishes once again with your fantastic "Midnight in Paris". In the film, Allen's alter ego is Gil (Owen Wilson) who goes on holiday to Paris accompanied by his wife (Rachel McAdams) and her snobbish pais.Gil Wollywood is a director who is dissatisfied and has the dream of becoming a great novelist. One evening Gil lost in Paris and goes into an old car that takes him to Paris in 20 years, given its "Golden Age", where many intellectuals were concentrated in Paris, that Gil is

Mamma Mia Review by theZOOBA98, literature

Mamma Mia Review

MAMMA MIA! Rating: PG 11+ Duration: 108 mins Year: 2008 Director(s): Phyllida Lloyd Cast: Meryl Streep, Colin Firth, Julie Walters, Stellan Skarsgard After you watch this movie, you may or may not want to burst out in song. I certainly wanted to and tried until I was told to be quiet by a relative of mine. This movie uses the songs of a well known and still loved pop band ABBA e.g. Dancing Queen, Does your mother know? and of course Mamma Mia! I think this movie has cleverly entwined the songs of ABBA into a musical which is now global, I reckon that you could ask anyone have you heard of 'Mamma Mia!' and they will know exactly what yo

Hey everyone. I'm a new user who is into doing retro reviews for films that are either nostalgic or have been out for a while.

I will do current film reviews eventually.

For now I have three reviews already post and I really really need to have views and comments. And even see these reviews added to someone's favorite list.

What about retrospectives?

I'll fix my reviews that I believe are missing the rating of (R, PG-13) etc but I am a little annoyed because my other reviews up to this point have been accepted and they are the same format as what I tried to submit (having all but the age Rating) but it's rejected? I'm rightly confused.

If a review is rejected, can it be resubmitted if the review now includes one (if not all) of the submission rule requirements?

Sorry for such a late response!

If a review is rejected it is only because it was either 1) submitted to the wrong folder or 2) didn't include the rating requirements for the group. We do not reject for any other reasons! So yes absolutely feel free to re submit!
