The Cutting Edge is a movie that is perfectly made for a laid back weekend morning. Is it cheesy? Yes. Does it seem dated? Yes. Do you stop and watch it when you are flipping the channels? Most definitely yes.

It's gripping to see the lengths that the Russian government has taken to suppress Navalny, who is a political adversary to their reign.

Only the Coen brothers could create a movie that has deep philosophical questions about nihilism and capitalism wrapped up into a crime caper with a stoned hippie as the protagonist.

I am happy to say that Murder Mystery 2 outshines the first installment, though, not by much.

Prom Pact does an amazing job of fulfilling the tropes of a high school rom-com, but the romance takes a back seat to the friendship between Mandy and Ben.

To All the Boys I've Loved Before succeeds in its simplicity. Lara Jean's (Lana Condor) unsent love letters are the MacGuffin for an absurd, yet plausible, teen romance with an extremely likable cast.

It's hard not to watch 10 Things I Hate About You with a smile on your face. It has an even balance of a rom-com and a coming of age tale, and when done correctly, is a formula that can easily appeal to a mass audience.

There is a campiness and tongue-in-cheek humor to M3GAN which makes you long to look at someone and ask, “Did that just happen?”

Amélie is one of the most striking romantic comedies that you will see. It is a beauty to behold and director Jean-Pierre Jeunet creates stunning visuals that you never forget.

Did Bernie Sanders write the Triangle of Sadness screenplay? This film is a dark satire about the rich that is a bit too clever for its own good.

In Your Place or Mine, the romantic chemistry is supposed to lie in a twenty-year "friendship" in where we get no glimpse.

Is She Said one of the best movies about journalists? No, but, it depicts a pivotal moment in the #MeToo movement with care and balanced seriousness.

Hitch is a pleasant, but not too deep movie with a lot of gags that really work at times or fall really flat.

I'm starting to not like director Ti West because he's making me find delight in very dark and depraved material. I'm kidding of course, but somehow you leave Pearl with a smile on your face despite witnessing gruesome murders and maggot-infested pigs.

(500) Days of Summer perfectly encapsulates how twenty-somethings view and contextualize romance.

I didn't know Alison Brie could be unlikable, but her character in Somebody I Used to Know is someone that you never root for.

There’s not a lot to like about the character Tár, but Field forces us to contemplate what we value most about art. The work itself or the person behind it?

I didn't mind You People as a concept. There are some funny moments and one-liners, but the problem is that if you want to be a rom-com, there has to be romantic chemistry between the leads.

The Woman King feels like a throwback epic action film that reminded me of Gladiator or Braveheart with, well, more women.

I remember the narrative surrounding The Redeem Team and how much pressure was put on this team's shoulders and I enjoyed getting more of an inside look into the psyche of the players and coaches.
