Ready or Not is a 2019 horror comedy movie. Horror comedy is something that’s very hard to do, and this film does it in a very particular way. Is it good? Is it unwatchable? Let’s find out.

These are divisive times, desperate for some aggressive agreement. By charming people across multiple backgrounds and beliefs, Baby Yoda unites us.

It may have ended on a dark and dreary note, but Empire Strikes Back is incredible. Most consider it the best of all the Star Wars movies. It catapulted the franchise from being a great movie to a great series.

A deep dive into not just the frequency, but also the context of dismemberment reveals a pattern. While some instances are just simple displays of power, most signal to audiences that they are watching a moment of critical character development.
DetailsFrozen II
The sequel to Disney’s Frozen could not possibly live up to the hype of the original, and so it doesn’t try. While the story maintains its familiarity by holding true to the same themes, it takes audiences on a brand new adventure that delves deeper into the curiosities of a largely unexplored world.

DetailsDoctor Sleep
The Shining is known as one of the best horror movies of all time. So, while Doctor Sleep is an exciting and good movie, it left me waiting in anticipation for scary scenes that were few and far between. As the heir to the Shining, this movie should have been scarier and more of a true horror movie.
