 Hello I am back after such a long time with a new post and this time we are taking a look at Top Gun: Maverick staring Tom Cruise, Miles Teller and many more. Top Gun: Maverick is directed by Joseph Kosinski and was released 2022. Top Gun: Maverick | NEW Official Trailer (2022 Movie) Synopsis: After 30 years one of the top aviators of the Navy, Pete Mitchell aka. Maverick is working as a test pilot and dodging advancements that would ground him, when he is called to teach a new generation of elite pilots to fly a near impossible mission. My thoughts: Top Gun: Maverick is a solid action film with great action set peaces, some funny moments as well as some drama here and there. I myself don't really have nostalgia for the original movie as I wasn't around to watch it back then, but I do enjoy this one very much and I do think it is way better than the original one. Now I will say this film was an absolutely phenomenal movie theater experience when I saw it, the music, the sounds...

 Hello and welcome back. I am back once again with a new review, but this time on a fairly old movie. Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator was written, directed and acted in by Charlie Chaplin and it was released in 1940. Now this review is going to contain spoilers to the film, but you know it was made like 80 years ago, but now you have been warned so let's get right into it.

 I am once again back with a new movie review and this time we are taking a look at Knives Out written and directed by Rian Johnson and stars everyone, I mean there are so many amazing movie stars in this film such as Daniel Craig, Christopher Plummer, Ana De Armas etc. This was the second time I saw this film and damn did I like it, maybe even more than the first time around. Knives Out (2019) Synopsis: Detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is called to investigate the death of a famous crime author Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer). The cause of death appears to be suicide, however Benoit Blanc suspects foul play and everyone else is a suspect. My thoughts:  This film is a brilliant murder mystery brought to the modern day. I mean this is such an ingenious film, the writing is great, the characters were really good and there was a lot of things I missed the first time around seeing it. And the thing I most like about it is the fact that it is not based on already existin...
