Bring Her Back - Movie Review

Okay, Alright I Watched Bring Her Back At CMX Cinemas Countryside 12 In Clearwater, FL.

And Honestly, I Didn’t Expect The Movie To Go Where It Did.

It Gave Off That Blair Witch Project Vibe, Especially During The Scene Where She’s Watching The VHS Tape. That Old-School, Grainy Horror Effect Pulled Me In Fast.

One Scene That Really Stuck With Me Was When Oliver, Played By Jonah Wren Phillips, Was Chewing On A Knife At The Kitchen Table. That Was Graphic — Like, really graphic. The Theater Went Silent, Then People Just Started Laughing. Not Because It Was Funny, But Because Nobody Could Believe What They Were Watching.

It Had Me Glued The Whole Time. Disturbing, Intense, But Weirdly Realistic In A Way That Makes You Think — I Wouldn’t Be Shocked If Stuff Like This Happens Somewhere Out There. When Someone Dies, Maybe It’s Best To Let Them Go.

The End.

If You’re Into Gory, Wild, Off-The-Rails Horror — This One’s Worth Watching.

4/5 - Stars

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning - Movie Review

Okay, Alright I Caught This One In 4DX At Regal Tangram In Flushing, NY.

And Let Me Tell You, Those Seats Were Doing The Most. Felt Like I Was On A Roller Coaster. Fun? Yes. Comfortable? Not Exactly. They Could Dial That Motion Down A Couple Levels.

Now, The Movie Itself? Solid. Nearly 3 Hours Long And I Was Glued To The Screen The Whole Time. Nonstop Action, Sharp Cinematic Shots, And Just The Right Amount Of Drama To Keep It Grounded. It Doesn’t Drag. You Get Pulled Into The Mission From The Start.

Tom Cruise? Still Going Full Throttle. He Did His Own Plane Stunts Again, Which Always Adds That Extra Edge To The Big Scenes. The Guy’s Not Letting Up.

It Was Shot In Norway, And You Really Feel The Location — Beautiful Landscapes That Make The Action Pop Even More.

Overall, If You’re Into High-Paced Action With Style And A Lead Actor Who literally throws himself into the role, this one delivers. Just maybe skip the 4DX… or at least brace yourself.

4/5 Stars - Regal Tangram

Sinners - Movie Review (2025)

Okay, Alright. Sinners, Directed By Ryan Coogler and Starring Michael B. Jordan, Is A Movie That Grabs Your Attention Early.

But Keeping Up With Where It’s Headed Is Another Story. 

Michael B. Jordan Does His Thing, No Doubt.

He Brings Intensity And Depth, 

But The Story Itself? It Jumps All Over The Place.

At Times, It Feels Like It’s Trying To Be A History Lesson In Music. 

Then It Veers Into Themes Of Freedom and Rebellion, Then Suddenly We’re Talking Vampires? 

Or Is It Coded Resistance Against The Ku Klux Klan? 

Maybe All Of The Above, Maybe None. 

The Movie Throws A Lot At You, And Not All Of It Sticks.

There Are Moments That Break The Tension With Humor, Which Works Thanks To Performances like Delroy Lindo’s. 

Yes, Isaak O’Day From Romeo Must Die Still Has That Presence. 

He Brings A Certain Grounded Energy That Helps Balance The Chaos.

Cinematography’s On Point. The CGI Doesn’t Feel Overdone, And Visually, The Film Delivers. 

But Even With All That, Something Feels Off.

3/5 Stars - Regal Tangram

The Apprentice - Movie Review

Okay, Alright Been A Minute Since I Watched Something Good While Cutting Through Clouds. 

The Apprentice, Had Me Locked in from Start To Finish.

Had No Clue Donald Trump Had a Mentor.

But Apparently, The Man Behind The Curtain was Roy Marcus Cohn. 

Makes Sense—Every Power Player Needs a Coach, Right?

Fun Fact: They Shot This One in Toronto & Ontario, Canada. 

Probably a Way Better Deal Than Filming In NYC.

Between Insurance, Film Permits, and That Big Apple Price Tag, It’d Cost A Fortune.

Seeing a Young Donald Trump On Screen Gave a Whole New Perspective. 

Different Era, Different Energy—But Still, That Same Drive for Power.

Final Verdict? Solid Film. Worth The Watch.
