Hostiles
With superb actors bringing these characters to life and Cooper at the helm this movie offers both a literal and figurative journey to a well-earned and peaceful conclusion.
Paddington 2
There is a reason Paddington 2 did so well with critics and fans alike and is worth the price. This is one movie you definitely want to own.
Vice Principals: The Complete Series
Vice Principals season two steps up the show’s game and while I understand why the series ended where it did, I wonder what a season three might have been like.
Rampage
Rampage is a true popcorn, action movie that offers the audience some great scenes and some emotional moments.
Knowing
Knowing is fascinating if you believe in predictions or premonitions but merely lackluster if you don’t.
Ballers: The Complete Third Season
The overall theme of the series, the life as a current/ former football player, is still there, though the stakes seem to be higher this time around.
The Americans: The Complete Fifth Season
Season five of The Americans planted the seed of Elizabeth and Phillip returning home and it will be interesting to see if the writers end the show that way or if they will kill off either of these characters.
Blockers
Some good performances, a decent script, and a mildly different plot makes Blockers a film worth seeing.
