Love and Monsters 2020
A dog is a man's best friend!!!!!!!! β€οΈ
My love for Dylan O'Brien is endless but the dog was the most precious thing in the entire movie!!!! Though named Boy in the movie, the lead dog's actual name is Hero and I mean... he truly was a hero throughout!
The dog trainer said that Hero LOVED Dylan! And that she never has seen a stronger bond off screen between a dog and an actor. That alone means Love and Monstersβ¦

Sound of Metal 2019
I loved it! β€οΈ
Riz Ahmed is amazing in this one and the sound design is so special. The movie progresses in a very slow manner and time isn't well established here but it's still captivating. There is beauty in the stillness, for those who have seen the movie, it will make a lot of sense.

While some of the narrative timelines felt a little messy it's sort of given considering the theme of the series. But again, that final episode.. just wow.

Love, Guaranteed 2020
Netflix made another Hallmark movie.
PS: Damon Wayans Jr is so charismatic no matter what he's asked to say. And yes, the script is stupid even if the concept is okay.
Wrote a more in depth review... sort of, find it here -> mettelray.com/love-guaranteed-2020/

Holidate 2020
A holiday filled movie two days before Halloween? Netflix, you drunk or what?
Other than that.. I went in with no expectations and was still disappointed. Go figure. Some okay moments here and there, the idea sort of works but it just dragged out so long.
All the female characters here are so shallow and awful. Every conversation is about relationships, men, looks and sex. Like their entire family dynamic is about her relationship status. WHO THE FUCK CARES!? LETβ¦
