Mulan (2020)

Directed by Niki Caro Review written by Jazmine Deng Okay, I’m going to be honest. When I first watched this film, I was pretty plainly impressed by it, even to the point of getting teary. I thought, “Hey, Disney didn’t do too bad.” However, there are a few things to…

The Personal History of David Copperfield

Directed by Armando Ianucci Review written by Owen Selby To be perfectly honest, when I first heard about The Personal History of David Copperfield I thought it was a film about the magician, having never heard of his literary counterpart. But if ever there was a film to inspire me…

Uncut Gems

Directed by Josh and Benny Safdie Adam Sandler has never worked for me. My experiences with his comedies are almost entirely negative (though my memory of seeing Jack and Jill on an outing with some friends back in grade six is tinged with fondness), and he has actively hindered my…
