Tron: Ares Review - Another Victim of the Trilogy Curse

It Could Be Movies 2025-12-02 | Tron Ares is this generation's Spider-Man 3: bright moments trapped in a disappointing sequel. Now streaming December 2.

I watched the first Tron and Tron Legacy back-to-back before seeing Ares—and this third installment removes everything we loved about the previous films. Sam Flynn? Gone. The 29-minute rule for programs in the real world? Ret-conned. The games? Barely there. What's left is a soulless story with stunning visuals, a killer Nine Inch Nails soundtrack, and Jodie Turner-Smith as the only watchable character.

Tron Ares became one of 2025's biggest box office flops, losing $132 million. Now that it's streaming on digital platforms, more people can see why this disappointing sequel follows the same pattern as X-Men: The Last Stand and Spider-Man 3: a few incredible action sequences buried in a terrible movie. The Golden Gate Bridge lift, the black-suit Spider-Man train fight, the Tron Ares motorcycle chase—all bright spots in otherwise forgettable films.

The third movie curse strikes again. Jared Leto's stoic performance lacks gravitas, the comic relief isn't funny, and the story spends too much time in the real world instead of the Grid. We came for the games. We got corporate espionage instead. Jodie Turner-Smith shines as Athena, but even her standout performance can't save this box office bomb.

Wicked For Good Review - Never Go Full Magical Negro (SPOILERS)

It Could Be Movies 2025-11-24 | I loved Wicked For Good... until the ending turned Elphaba into a magical negro.

The magical negro trope is when a Black character sacrifices everything so a white character can become a better person. In Wicked For Good, that's exactly what happens.

Elphaba visibly different, literally green-skinned sacrifices her freedom and identity so Glinda can maintain her privilege and be "the good witch." Meanwhile, Glinda gets rewarded. The Wizard gets to leave. Elphaba goes into exile.

But here's the thing: Glinda spent the entire film treating Elphaba like a second-class citizen. Mocking her. Shunning her. When Elphaba took her to see the Wizard, Glinda betrayed her. When Elphaba was labeled "wicked," Glinda did nothing to defend her. And at the end? After Elphaba sacrifices herself for Glinda, Glinda denies even knowing her.

The real problem isn't just the ending. It's what the ending teaches: You need to look the part. Be pretty. Be presentable. Be acceptable. Don't challenge people's prejudice just keep the peace.

That's not a lesson I can get behind.

Strange Harvest Is Genius Found Footage Horror Disguised as a Crime Doc

It Could Be Movies 2025-11-04 | I've never seen a horror movie like Strange Harvest—it's shot like a real crime doc but hits you with cosmic horror and this absolutely insane serial killer called Mr. Shiny. The entire movie never breaks format. Every shot, every interview, every detail stays committed to that documentary vibe, and that's what makes it so terrifying.

What makes this film genius is how it sticks to the bit. The antagonist's footage never looks like regular cinema—it's all body cam, crime scene reels, grainy found footage. And that mask? When it's peeking in windows? That's some of the most unsettling imagery I've ever seen because you KNOW what's about to happen.

The realism keeps you on edge. This could actually happen. This is exactly what it would look like.

Strong recommendation? Absolutely watch Strange Harvest.

Strange Harvest Review: Why This Isnt Your Typical Slasher

It Could Be Movies 2025-11-03 | Strange Harvest (2025) is the best mockumentary horror since Grave Encounters—here's why the Mr. Shiny serial killer story feels too real. In this spoiler-free review, we break down how director Stuart Ortiz blends the true crime documentary format with brutal found footage horror to create something genuinely unsettling.

What makes Strange Harvest work:
Detectives Joe Kirby and Lexi Taylor recount the decades-spanning hunt for "Mr. Shiny," a sadistic killer whose murders are tied to a dark cosmic force. We analyze the film's high-stakes realism, the disturbing practical effects, and how the occult twist escalates the tension beyond standard true crime. Unlike jump-scare horror, Strange Harvest builds dread through procedural authenticity and cosmic intrigue.

This film deserves to be mentioned alongside Lake Mungo, The Poughkeepsie Tapes, and V/H/S as one of the best found footage/mockumentary horror films. If you're into true crime documentaries, serial killer stories, or horror that commits to realism, this is a must-watch for 2025.

Why Im Starting a Vlog Channel | It Could Be Whatever Announcement

It Could Be Movies 2025-10-29 | Yo, so I've been all over the place posting reviews on my main channel. Weeks go by, then I drop something, then weeks again. I figured out what's happening: I get in my head about recording. Like, I haven't recorded in a minute, so I'm rusty, so I'm nervous, so I don't record. It's this whole thing, right?
So I'm starting a new vlog channel called It Could Be Whatever. The idea is simple: I just post unscripted content whenever I feel like it. No pressure, no script, just me talking about whatever's on my mind. ADHD tangents and all. By getting comfortable being on camera consistently, I won't have that rust when I come back to reviews here.

This isn't some polished daily vlog. It's low-stakes, authentic, and exactly what the channel name says: it could be whatever. Could be funny, could be serious, could be me complaining about YouTube's verification system. That's the whole point.

My goal is to stay sharp, build my confidence on camera, and ultimately get you better, more consistent movie reviews on my main channel.

Dwayne Johnson FINALLY Proves He Can Act in The Smashing Machine

It Could Be Movies 2025-10-07 | Dwayne Johnson finally delivers a genuine dramatic performance in The Smashing Machine—and it might be the best acting of his career. Director Benny Safdie crafts a character study about Mark Kerr, a UFC fighter caught between toxic relationships, brutal competition, and his own emotional vulnerability.

What we break down in this review:
- Why The Rock's softer approach works better than his action-hero persona
- Emily Blunt's performance as Dawn Staples and the complex dynamics of their relationship
- Benny Safdie's direction: how he balances UFC brutality with intimate character moments
- The hospital crying scene that redefines what we expect from Johnson as an actor
- Whether this film positions Emily Blunt as an Oscar contender
- How A24 continues to make films that challenge big stars to do real work

The Smashing Machine is a sports drama that's actually about masculinity, trauma, and the cost of competition. If you appreciate character-driven films, strong performances, or are interested in how A24 reshapes actor careers, this is worth your time.

HIM Movie Review: The Biggest Fumble of The Year?

It Could Be Movies 2025-09-19 | Him (2025) is a prime example of why taking creative risks doesn't automatically make a movie good. Despite Jordan Peele's involvement as producer and Marlon Wayans in the lead, this film fails spectacularly through terrible acting choices, nonsensical plot progression, and visual effects that feel like amateur hour.

Final Destination: Bloodlines is the Most FUN Horror Movie of 2025

It Could Be Movies 2025-08-26 | Final Destination: Bloodlines is the most fun I've had in a theater all year—and somehow I ended up rooting for Death himself. Director Zach Lipovsky crafts a sequel that honors the franchise while adding genuine emotional stakes. The Space Needle opening? I'm never visiting Seattle because of that sequence alone.

What Makes Bloodlines Different:
Unlike previous Final Destination films that follow the original premonition survivors, Bloodlines shifts to Stephanie, who's plagued by nightmares about her grandmother's premonition. Her grandmother saved people, they had kids, and now Death is pissed at an entire bloodline that shouldn't exist. Death's pettiness has been turned up to 11, and frankly? I'm Team Death in this one.

Why It Works:
The Space Needle opening scene is anxiety-inducing in the best way—a skybound restaurant where you're gripping your seat, waiting for disaster. But here's what separates Bloodlines from other slashers: it has actual characters you care about, not just cannon fodder. The family dynamic feels genuine—you believe these people care for each other, which makes every death hit different. The practical effects are incredible (some I thought were CGI were actually practical). And there's legitimate emotional weight, especially in Tony Todd's final performance, which includes a heartfelt speech on cherishing every moment of life.

Death's Pettiness:
Every death scene is an endurance test with multiple fake-outs. The barbecue scene, hospital setpiece, piercing consequences—these aren't just kills, they're elaborate anxiety sequences. The franchise tradition continues: if you're scared of heights, log trucks, or flying, this will not help.

A Tony Todd Tribute:
This is Tony Todd's final appearance in the franchise. His closing scenes are genuinely heartfelt, reportedly written with his input. For a franchise built on death, his final moments are a celebration of life. RIP to the GOAT.

Ranking: My #1 fun horror movie of 2025. If you loved the franchise but want more emotional depth, Bloodlines delivers.

Watch if you:
- Love the Final Destination franchise
- Enjoy practical effects-heavy horror
- Want horror with actual character stakes
- Appreciate dark humor mixed with scares
- Miss Tony Todd (this one's for him)

House (1977): The Most INSANE Horror Movie Ever Made

It Could Be Movies 2025-08-21 | House (1977) killed me with confusion—and I mean that as a compliment. Director Nobuhiko Ôbayashi created something genuinely surreal: a Japanese horror-comedy that defies every convention of filmmaking. If the goal was to make you say "What the f***" as many times as possible in 90 minutes, this director succeeded.

This is part of The Unseen Movie Marathon, where I watch and review one film from each year between 1970 to present—movies I've never seen until now.

What makes House so insane:
Seven schoolgirls visit their friend Gorgeous's haunted countryside home, accompanied by her aunt's evil cat. What unfolds is pure visual chaos: watermelon decapitations that reveal human heads, a piano that eats fingers, sheets that come alive, a giant bear in a restaurant eating food (never explained), and a man who turns into a literal pile of bananas. The editing alone is disorienting—rapid cuts between live action, animation, stop-motion, and color manipulation that makes you question your own reality.

But here's what gets me: The girls NEVER leave. Things keep happening and nobody says anything. They watch their friend get decapitated in a watermelon, see their aunt walk out of a wheelchair (that she supposedly couldn't use), and just... keep going. It's maddening and hilarious.

The genius: At the start, House leans into slapstick comedy with surreal moments (a clothed bear in a restaurant). But by the end, it's full-on horror where the aunt has possessed Gorgeous and systematically killed everyone. The tonal shift is brilliant.

Why this matters: House is a cult classic that influenced decades of horror and experimental cinema, yet most Western audiences have never heard of it. If you love surreal horror, weird 70s films, Japanese cinema, experimental filmmaking, or horror-comedy blends that actually work, this is essential viewing.

Watch this if you enjoy:
- Surreal/experimental horror (Mulholland Drive, Eraserhead vibes)
- 1970s cinema that breaks all the rules
- Japanese cult films
- Practical effects and analog creativity
- Horror-comedy blends

Weapons (2025) Review – Horror, Humor & That Shock Scare Explained

It Could Be Movies 2025-08-11 | Weapons (2025) is my #2 horror film of the year, and it hits you with terror one minute and genuine laughs the next—but never lets the comedy undercut the dread. Director Zach Cregger (Barbarian, Companion) creates something genuinely unsettling while keeping you laughing: a rare feat in horror-comedy.

The Setup:
A brand new elementary school teacher, Justine, walks into her classroom to find 17 of her 18 students missing. All 17 left their homes at exactly 2:17 AM. The entire town blames her. The truth is way darker and way weirder.

Why Weapons Works:
Weapons delivers on every front. The jump scares are relentless (and I mean that literally—one had my whole left leg in the air, toes pointed up). But it's not just cheap scares. The tension builds methodically. You watch situations slowly develop into nightmares, knowing things won't end well. The humor is genuinely funny without feeling forced or out of place—it rolls naturally with the chaos on screen. There's minimal body horror, but when it hits, it traumatizes (I've been scarred twice by kitchen scenes in 2025, and this is the second time).

The Cast & Storytelling:
Jennifer Garner, Josh Brolin, Benedict Wong, Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, and breakout Carrie Christopher all deliver incredible performances. The non-linear storytelling is done right—every character's journey is its own puzzle piece, and when they interconnect, the picture becomes clearer and more disturbing. You spend time in each character's perspective, which gives everyone a chance to shine.

My Ranking:
#1: Sinners
#2: Weapons
#3: Bring Her Back
(Companion also in heavy rotation)

If you liked Barbarian or Companion, you need to watch Weapons. Even if you haven't seen those, if you love horror-comedy blends with genuine scares, character-driven storytelling, and dark humor, this is essential 2025 viewing.

Fantastic Four 2025 Is the MCU Comeback We Needed - Review

It Could Be Movies 2025-07-31 | I went in skeptical about Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, but bro absolutely SMOKED it—and I'm eating my words. Fantastic Four: First Steps is the fourth Fantastic Four movie that FINALLY gets it right. This is the Fantastic Four film we deserved all along.

Why This Works:
Director Matt Shakman created something fresh for Marvel Phase 6. This isn't set in the MCU's 616 universe—it's Earth-828, a retro-futuristic world inspired by 1960s America crossed with The Jetsons. Flying cars, robots, futuristic skyscrapers, and a world where people actually TRUST their heroes. That's the key difference. The people of Earth-828 believe in the Fantastic Four—not cynical like 1999 Earth.

The Setup:
The Fantastic Four face their biggest challenge when Galactus sends Silver Surfer to warn them: surrender Franklin Richards (Sue and Reed's baby) or Earth becomes Galactus's next meal. Of course, they refuse. The stakes: save Earth from a cosmic entity that's essentially a sentient planet.

Why It's Different From Previous Films:
Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards: I doubted the casting. I was wrong. He brings both intellect and humanity. Reed isn't just smart—he's a leader who listens to his team, doubts himself when necessary, and deeply cares about his family.

Vanessa Kirby is the MVP: Sue Storm is powerful, diplomatic, AND a pregnant superhero ready to fight cosmic threats. She's not just powerful—she's a full character.

The Fantastic Four actually WANT to be heroes: Unlike the MCU we grew up with (where heroes are often reluctant), this team wants to help. They're in their community. Ben Grim hangs out on Yancy Street. Johnny Storm protects his loved ones first.

Galactus Finally Gets Respect: No cloud nonsense. This is a proper cosmic entity with story depth and humor. You understand his motivation while still knowing he can't have Franklin.

Silver Surfer Space Chase: This scene is one of the BEST in the entire MCU. Surfing fire, space, and vortexes—this has massive replay value.

The "Negatives" (That Actually Work):
Movie's too short: I wanted MORE of each character (not a bad problem)

Missing the cosmic ray transformation scene: Nerdy nitpick, but the origin moment felt incomplete

Silver Surfer absent from final battle: When she returns, it's awesome—but her absence was felt

Cast & Crew:
Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Julia Garner | Director: Matt Shakman

My Ranking:
This is a top-tier MCU film. It's fresh, it's got heart, the family dynamics feel real, and it sets up Phase 6 with cosmic ambition. If you loved Thor: Ragnarok, Guardians of the Galaxy, or Ms. Marvel's tone, you'll love this.

Where It Compares:
Better than: All previous Fantastic Four films, most MCU Phase 5
In conversation with: Best MCU cosmic films (Thor: Ragnarok, Guardians trilogy)

Superman gets beat up and thats GOOD actually

It Could Be Movies 2025-07-15 | Superman gets beat up and bleeds in Superman 2025 and fans are upset?? 💀 Y'all clearly didn't read the comics or watch the cartoons. Superman's vulnerability is what makes him Superman - he gets knocked down but gets back up. That interview scene with Lois was character development at its finest! What did you think of vulnerable Superman?

James Gunns inner child made Superman (2025)

It Could Be Movies 2025-07-14 | James Gunn's Superman 2025 gives us 90% Superman screen time! Here's why this childlike approach works so well. Unlike other Superman movies that focus on Clark Kent, this movie is pure Superman action with Krypto, kaiju fights, and everything thrown at our hero.

James Gunns Superman is the Best Live-Action Superman Movie Ever

It Could Be Movies 2025-07-14 | James Gunn's Superman is a $225 million Saturday morning cartoon with a childlike imagination running wild, and it's exactly what the Superman franchise needed. More Superman screen time than any other live-action film, more heart than Man of Steel or BvS.

The Approach:
James Gunn didn't try to make Oscar-bait cinema. He tapped into his inner child: "What if I just made a comic book movie?" Result: Kaiju attacks, secret lairs with portals, genetically enhanced henchmen, and Krypto, an absolutely misbehaved dog who's somehow the most endearing character.

David Corenswet as Superman:
More Superman screen time than any previous live-action film, 90% in the suit. Clark Kent barely exists (10-15 minutes), which is intentional. Corenswet brings earnestness and vulnerability. He's not brooding. He simply helps people because they need help. It's beautifully simple.

The Justice Gang (Supporting Heroes):
Established heroes with their own capabilities. Guy Gardner/Green Lantern is perfectly annoying with his cringe bowl cut. Mr. Terrific steals almost every scene. Hawkgirl feels underdeveloped. We're three years into Superman's career, no origin stories, no "first contact," just a functioning superhero community.

Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor:
Full Lex Luthor from moment one. The biggest hater Superman will face. Evil plans are Saturday morning cartoon perfect: Kaiju, armored mercenaries, nanobot assassins with saw hands. But despite the cartoonish setup, Lex is ruthless and makes real stakes.

Krypto:
The most unexpectedly endearing character. A superpowered dog who almost never listens to Superman but is always there when it counts. His fight scenes are incredible.

What Works:
Strong emotional moments alongside action. People die. Superman fails. He gets beat up like in the cartoons. The interview scene with Lois Lane is integral to understanding Clark's simple moral clarity. Ma and Pa Kent are regular country folk, James Gunn's point: unremarkable people can raise Superman.

What Doesn't Work:
Limited Perry White and Daily Planet presence. Cat Grant's motivation for hating Superman isn't established. Hawkgirl feels like setup for future films rather than having full moments.

The Verdict:
James Gunn created something positive for superhero cinema. Superman works here. Simplistic in parts, deeply emotional in others, unapologetically colorful and comic-accurate. Kaiju stomp through Metropolis. Superman fights to save every life, including a squirrel. Best Superman film in decades.

Youre WRONG about Jurassic World: Rebirth!

It Could Be Movies 2025-07-08 | Jurassic World Rebirth Review Why Everyone is WRONG About This Movie

Is Jurassic World Rebirth really the worst movie in the franchise? I don't think so. In this honest movie review, I break down why critics are wrong about the latest Jurassic World movie. From Scarlett Johansson's performance to Mahershala Ali's return, here's my take on this 2025 dinosaur movie.

What I Cover in This Review:
- Jurassic World Rebirth plot breakdown and honest thoughts
- Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali performances
- How it compares to Jurassic World Dominion and the trilogy
- Best dinosaur scenes and action sequences
- Why it's better than people are saying

Jurassic World: Rebirth Isnt Great, But Its Better Than You Think

It Could Be Movies 2025-07-08 | Jurassic World: Rebirth is better than critics are saying, but let's be real—it's just okay. It's nowhere near a travesty. Here's my honest take on this 2025 dinosaur movie.

The Setup:
A millionaire assembles a team (including mercenaries with hearts of gold and paleontologist Scarlett Johansson) to collect dinosaur blood from three different species to cure heart disease. The missions: sea, land, and air. It sounds like a video game with escalating difficulty. It's not.

What Works:
- The sea dinosaur sequence is genuinely fun and dangerous
- Mahershala Ali brings real weight to his role (where has this man been?)
- The cast tries hard despite repetitive Jurassic World tropes
- There's actual environmental messaging (delivered via a Snickers wrapper and littering)
- It's legitimately better than the previous three Jurassic World movies (which are atrocious)

What Doesn't Work:
- No real stakes or danger for main characters
- The Rancor-inspired dinosaur (inspired by Star Wars) opens HUGE but disappears mid-movie
- Tonal issues: the mercenaries are too nice, which kills tension
- Tame set pieces despite having a great premise
- Lacks the drama and danger you'd expect from a survival movie

The Verdict:
It's not the rebirth the franchise needed. It's a "solid time at the movies" film. You'll probably have fun, but you likely won't watch it again. The issue: Jurassic World Rebirth needed more spice, more danger, maybe some blood. It played it too safe.

Where It Ranks:
- Better than: Jurassic World Dominion, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Jurassic World
- Not as good as: Original Jurassic Park trilogy
- Overall: A step forward from atrocious to "just okay"

Why This Matters:
Mahershala Ali deserves better roles. He's a two-time Academy Award winner and this is his first role in years. Marvel, if you're listening: get Blade made. Mahershala's 50 now—the clock is ticking.

⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:
0:00 You Are Wrong (Well, Sort Of)
0:27 Jurassic World: Rebirth Synopsis
1:28 Kids In Jurassic World (Predictable Tropes)
3:25 The Sea Dinosaur: The High Point
4:00 The Rancor Dinosaur (Star Wars Inspiration)
4:31 That Snickers Scene (A Message on Littering)
5:20 The Rancor Disappearing Act (Missed Potential)
5:52 Rebirth vs. The Jurassic World Trilogy
6:20 What's Missing: More Danger, More Spice
6:45 Mahershala Ali Deserves Better Roles
7:16 Final Verdict: It's Just Okay

28 Years Later… What Did I Just Watch? | Spoiler Review

It Could Be Movies 2025-07-01 | I watched 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later right before diving into 28 Years Later, and… wow. This franchise is still proudly messy, wildly ambitious, and somehow makes the Alpha Zombie’s junk a plot point.

From pregnant infected and skull towers to British street gangs in Adidas tracksuits, this movie feels like four films in one and I still can’t wait for the rest of the trilogy. Here’s my full, unfiltered breakdown of 28 Years Later.

HAPPY JUNETEENTH!!!

It Could Be Movies 2025-06-19 | Today we celebrate JUNETEENTH 2025!

"On “Freedom’s Eve,” or the eve of January 1, 1863, the first Watch Night services took place. On that night, enslaved and free African Americans gathered in churches and private homes all across the country awaiting news that the Emancipation Proclamation had taken effect. At the stroke of midnight, prayers were answered as all enslaved people in Confederate States were declared legally free. Union soldiers, many of whom were black, marched onto plantations and across cities in the south reading small copies of the Emancipation Proclamation spreading the news of freedom in Confederate States. Only through the Thirteenth Amendment did emancipation end slavery throughout the United States.

But not everyone in Confederate territory would immediately be free. Even though the Emancipation Proclamation was made effective in 1863, it could not be implemented in places still under Confederate control. As a result, in the westernmost Confederate state of Texas, enslaved people would not be free until much later. Freedom finally came on June 19, 1865, when some 2,000 Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas. The army announced that the more than 250,000 enslaved black people in the state, were free by executive decree. This day came to be known as "Juneteenth," by the newly freed people in Texas. "

WWE’s finally giving us something unpredictable, and I’m here for it. Let’s talk about why these pairings are so exciting and what it means for the finals!

Fathers Day

It Could Be Movies 2025-06-16 | Spent Father’s Day doing a little bit of everything — called my dad, hit the theater for a double feature, and sat with my thoughts for a bit. Talked about how I’ve been managing (or not managing) my ADHD lately and how that’s been affecting my focus, routines, and content-making. It’s one of those vlogs where I just share what’s on my mind, so if you’ve ever felt scattered or overwhelmed, you’re not alone. Also dropped my thoughts on the two movies I watched — no spoilers, just vibes.

Don’t forget to like, comment, and let me know how your Father’s Day went — or if you’ve seen anything good in theaters lately.

Black Bag Made Me Question Everything I Know About Spy Movies

It Could Be Movies 2025-06-15 | Black Bag might be the most slept-on movie of 2025. Fassbender and Blanchett kill it in this one. The movie does something rare it by keeping things tense without a bunch of explosions or shootouts. It’s smart, grounded, and only 90 minutes long, which honestly makes it even better. If you're into spy movies that focus more on characters this one's definitely worth your time.

Its Not Jey Usos Fault!

It Could Be Movies 2025-06-12 | Let’s talk about the real problem with WWE’s World Heavyweight Championship booking. Jey Uso, Gunther, and Damian Priest have all been victims of Triple H’s weird habit of making the RAW world champ feel like a side character in someone else’s storyline. Whether it’s Judgment Day drama, CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre, or just being a placeholder for bigger names, the title deserves better and so do these champs. Let’s get into it.

Presence Is A Waste of A Great Idea | Movie Review

It Could Be Movies 2025-06-07 | In this review, I dive into Presence, a NEON horror movie that tells its story entirely from the perspective of a ghost. Sounds cool, right? Well… not so fast. While I appreciated the creative risk like I did with In A Violent Nature, this one left me more annoyed than entertained. From baffling character choices to some seriously inconsistent ghost behavior, I break down exactly where it all fell apart. Let’s talk about it!

The Mom In Bring Her Back Is EVIL!

Bring Her Back Movie Review | Evil as Hell

It Could Be Movies 2025-06-03 | DON’T SUMMON ANYTHING. A24’s Bring Her Back (2025) is an evil film that's bloody, disturbing, emotional, and masterfully crafted. From the twisted minds behind Talk To Me, this story of grief, trauma, and terrifying foster care had me whisper yelling at my screen. Sally Hawkins is chilling, the gaslighting is relentless, and the body horror? I’m still shook. If Hereditary messed you up, this one might just finish the job. Let’s talk about it.

Is The Accountant 2 Movie Worth Your Time?

It Could Be Movies 2025-04-30 | I walked into The Accountant 2 excited to see Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal return and while the mission storyline had some solid action scenes, the pacing dragged with too many side moments. The original had tight storytelling; this sequel feels more like a forgettable side quest. Still, there are good fights and character moments worth discussing. Watch for my full thoughts and let’s talk about The Accountant 2 in the comments!

It Could Be Movies 2025-04-29 | I walked into The Accountant 2 excited to see Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal return and while the mission storyline had some solid action scenes, the pacing dragged with too many side moments. The original had tight storytelling; this sequel feels more like a forgettable side quest. Still, there are good fights and character moments worth discussing. Watch for my full thoughts and let’s talk about The Accountant 2 in the comments!

SINNERS Is Incredibly Rare

It Could Be Movies 2025-04-25 | Ryan Coogler just dropped one of the most layered, emotional, and visually stunning films of his career with Sinners and I had to talk about it. From Michael B. Jordan’s best performance to Wunmi Mosaku being the movie's MVP, this film is a love letter to Black culture, music, history, and spirituality. It’s a vampire movie, yes but it’s so much more than that. Let’s unpack the symbols, performances, and why Coogler might be the greatest director of his generation.
