Turning Red (2022)
DELIGHTFUL
While I can't relate to most of the adolescent-related problems experienced by Mei Mei, "Turning Red" is still a delightful family film even if it doesn't rank as one of Pixar's best.
The Adam Project (2022)
JUST ANOTHER NETFLIX MOVIE
Proving that they can make a fun film with "Free Guy," it is disappointing to say that the Ryan Reynilds-starring, Shawn Levy-directed film "The Adam Project" is just another Netflix movie.
Kimetsu no Yaiba: No Matter How Many Lives (2022)
BETTER
FOF ENTIRE SEASON: "Demon Slayer" is a season that builds upon the world created by season 1 - and the movie - making it a better season despite not having enough screentime for Nezuko and Zenitsu.
Spider-Man 3 (2007)
DOESN'T DESERVE THE HATE
Though the CGI is very much outdated, I honestly think that, except for Topher Grace's performance and Peter's emo, "Spider-Man 3" doesn't deserve the hate and is, in fact, the best in the trilogy.
Gekijôban Kimetsu no yaiba: Mugen Ressha hen (2020)
A RARE ANIME
With stunning animation and a story that builds upon the first season of the anime, "Demon Slayer The Movie: Mugen Train" is a rare film adaptation of a popular anime as it doesn't feel like an extended episode. Though I would recommend watching it especially if you saw season 1, there are some exposition scenes that can be annoying (as well as some of Inosuke's parts)
Kimetsu no Yaiba (2019)
A FANTASTIC ANIME
Full of characters you'll love (particularly Zenitsu), a well-crafted world and bloody action scenes, "Demon Slayer" season 1 is one laughter-filled season any anime fan will enjoy, despite having a training arc at the end that should have been told right at the beginning.
Peacemaker (2022)
"JAMES GUNN AT HIS BEST"
Emotional, well-acted and extremely hilarious, "Peacemaker" Season 1 is currently one of the best shows airing and also proves that James Gunn is one of the most talented writer/directors working. "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" is in good hands.
13 Going on 30 (2004)
GENERIC BUT SWEET
"13 Going On 30" may be one of the most generic movies I've seen, but it is also one of the sweetest thanks to the funny jokes and the actors, particularly Garner, Ruffalo and Greer.
Tiger King (2020)
A PRETTY GREAT DOCUMENTARY
A well-made series with a "cast" that can be both loved and hated at the same time (or depending on whose side you're on) "Tiger King" is an addicting Netflix documentary series that everyone will enjoy (except for the last seasons)
Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
VISUALLY STUNNING
Despite having a flawed story that could have been fixed if it was a miniseries, "Alita: Battle Angel" has more than enough action scenes, visual treat and Jennifer Connelly to compensate.
Doom Patrol: Wax Patrol (2020)
A BIT MORE WEIRD
With set ups made the previous season, season 2 of "Doom Patrol" is able to breathe more. Despite fewer episodes and a new character named Dorothy, the season is able to double down on the weirdness, and that is a good thing.
The World of the Married (2020)
DRAMA AND THRILLS
"The World of the Married" swaps the typical mistress-revenge storyline for a story full of flawed characters, twists, thrills, appropriate amount of violence and a somewhat realistic approach to a broken marriage. Though the ending will underwhelm some, mainly due to the pros I mentioned, for me it was a nice change compared to the rest of the series.
Jigeum uri hakgyoneun (2022)
OVERHYPED
Having seen shows and movies like "Goblin," "Squid Game," "Miracle in Cell Number 7," "Train to Busan," "The Flu," "Love in the Moonlight," "Kingdom" and the Philippine made "Block Z," I can definitely say that "All of Us Are Dead" is one of the most okay yet overhyped Korean series and Zombie flick on social media. Featuring storylines and premises done better in the movies and shows I have mentioned - like drama, romance and Zombies in a campus - the series is predictable and only adds one thing new: the "Halfbies."
Shingeki no Kyojin (2013)
EMOTIONAL
FOR SEASON 3 (10/10)
The first half of the third season of "Attack on Titan" was a bit disappointing. Featuring politics and a lot of necessary backstory that mainly focused on Historia and the origins of Titans, it felt like a 12-episode story that could have been told with 6-8 episodes. However, what Part 1 lacked, Part 2 more than over compensated with its action packed episodes, a certain, depressing decision that Captain Levi had to make, and that emotional ending.
Shingeki no Kyojin: The Other Side of the Wall (2019)
EMOTIONAL
ATTACK ON TITAN SEASON 3
The first half of the third season of "Attack on Titan" was great but a bit disappointing. Featuring politics and a lot of necessary backstory that mainly focused on Historia and the origins of Titans, it felt like a 12-episode story that could have been told with 6-8 episodes. However, what Part 1 lacked, Part 2 more than over compensated with its action packed episodes, a certain, depressing decision that Captain Levi had to make, and that emotional ending.
*Grading them individually, Part 1 is 9/10 and Part 2 is 10/10. If I could give more than 10 to Part 2, I would.
Orphan (2009)
FLAWED
"Orphan" is flawed 2009 psychological horror film that will keep you hooked via its characters and Isabelle Fuhrman's portrayal of Esther. Despite the flaws in storytelling, it still has it moments of fantastic horror.
Shingeki no Kyojin: Scream (2017)
1/2 BUT 2X
FOR SEASON 2
The second season of "Attack on Titan" is half the number of episodes from the previous season, but it doubles down on the plot, backstories, characters and action that made season 1 great.
Shingeki no Kyojin: Wall: Raid on Stohess District, Part 3 (2013)
INTENSE
ATTACK ON TITAN SEASON 1
"Attack on Titan" Season 1 is one of the best written, character-driven and intense shows I have ever seen. If this doesn't make you an anime fan, I don't know what will.
Manifest: Mayday: Part 2 (2021)
MANIFEST SEASON 3
FOR SEASON 3: A GOOD LOST WANNABE (7/10)
"Manifest" Season 3 goes deeper into the mystery of Flight 828 while giving some pretty good drama, making it feel like the show - though good - is a "Lost" (created by Lindelof and Abrams for ABC) wannabe. I just hope that with mysteries still unsolved and that cliffhanger, "Manifest" will not give us the same feeling when the "Lost" finale gave us.
Doom Patrol (2019)
DOOM PATROL
Season 1: WHAT A SLOW BURN (7.5/10)
The quality of "Doom Patrol" Season 1 is divided into two, with the first half being okay and the rest being fantastic. Thank goodness for Alan Tudyk's Mr. Nobody - for being a huge highlight especially for most of the okay episodes - and for that therapy episode. After that episode, the show got much better. The last half is fantastic, showing character-driven, mystery-filled narrative mixed with some great weirdness.
Doom Patrol: Ezekiel Patrol (2019)
Season 1: WHAT A SLOW BURN (7.5/10)
The quality of "Doom Patrol" Season 1 is divided into two, with the first half being okay and the rest being fantastic. Thank goodness for Alan Tudyk's Mr. Nobody - for being a huge highlight especially for most of the okay episodes - and for that therapy episode. After that episode, the show got much better. The last half is fantastic, showing character-driven, mystery-filled narrative mixed with some great weirdness.
Manifest: Icing Conditions (2020)
WORKS BETTER AS A DRAMA
FOR ENTIRE SEASON 2 (7/10)
"Manifest" Season 2 has some major and minor flaws - last season's cliffhanger being a bit pointless due to the passing of 2 months, Olive's last boyfriend not existing when she and TJ became an item, things happening because it feels like the mystery needs to move forward and lack of scenes to establish how one character knows an information that another character found out in another episode - BUT it have a lot of dramatic storylines that compensate for ssid flaws, making this show a better dramatic series than a supernatural series. The supernatural elements is still a bit intriguing.
Sweet Tooth (2021)
9/10
"Sweet Tooth" is not the mind blowing show I thought and expected it to be BUT it has a lot of drama, fantastic characters, great writing and fantasy elements that make it a great show.
Eternals (2021)
VERY DIFFERENT
"Eternals" is an admirable film for creating a story that is different from the rest of the MCU, but major flaws like a too many characters, predictable twist, flashbacks that (mostly) feel like deleted scenes and the acting from Druig's actor keep it from reaching its full potential. Overall, the end result is mostly good.
Manifest: Estimated Time of Departure (2019)
INTRIGUING BUT NOT GREAT
FOR ENTIRE SEASON 1 (7/10
"Manifest" works better as a network television series and not as a Netflix series. I'd recommend that viewers don't binge watch the show for better experience, like I did. That said, the show is intriguing thanks to its setup and the cast. Sadly, it is far from great due to a "mystery of the week" vibe the first episodes showed, too many characters and lack of characterization from the supporting characters. It is also hard to believe that our lead, Mikhaela, can get away from her work almost all the time to solve the mystery of 828.
