Thoughts on Moana 2

 Moana 2 is the sequel to the hit Disney animated film. It is pretty and a very colorful film. That being said, it pales in comparison to its predecessor. Added characters seem superfluous. The plot and songs are largely forgettable. It isn’t a bad movie. It is just plagued with such mediocre themes that it doesn’t stand out.

Thoughts on Flow

 Flow is an incredible animated movie. The film is about a group of animals surviving a natural disaster. It is beautifully animated. The narrative is easy to follow and sweet in its execution. Give it a shot if you like animated movies or enjoyed movies like, Miniscule.

Thoughts on Your Monster

 Your Monster is a rom-com about a girl falling in love with her childhood monster. It is a charming and the actors are really great. The story is a modernized Beauty and the Beast and it tells its tale in a very relatable way. Check it out if you want a different take on the standard rom-com.

Thoughts on Sonic 3

 Sonic 3 is the latest Sonic the Hedgehog movie. There are some fun moments and humorous performances. The fight scenes drag a bit but the story itself is fine enough to carry the plot along. It isn’t high art, but your kids are going to like it. It is entertaining enough for the material it has to work with.

Thoughts on Nightbitch

 Nightbitch is a fascinating movie about a Mother going through an existential crisis. I identified with several aspects being a full-time dad. The message was strong and the growth of the characters seemed good and genuine. It was a movie that parents should check out. 

Thoughts on Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire

 Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is a movie. Of that I am sure. It is largely cartoon kaiju’s beating the hell out of each other. The human element is pointless. It’s a dumb, dumb movie. It’s not high art. You get what you expect from this Godzilla movie.

Thoughts on Civil War

 Civil War is a film about traveling journalists in the United States during a modern Civil War. It is heavy at times and is genuine in its message. The acting is great and it’s very well-paced. Check it out for something that hits a little close to home without being hopeless.
