Good On Paper (2021) Movie Review

Image
  In reading order, images belong to Netflix, Netflix, Netflix, Netflix. We do not own any of the images and we do not claim any right on them. Okay, so in today's world, where everyone with a little bit of money, or a moderate Instagram fame can shoot a movie, there's no need to review every single thing that's out there. Simply because, well, we can't watch them all to begin with, but we also shouldn't, since cinema is something sacred and most of these turn out to be overfunded biopics with no sense of  reality, which is not something we should be promoting by writing. Good On Paper, is not that, it seemed like. First of all, just as I saw the title, I said to myself, yeah, it kinda is good on paper though. I mean, Iliza Shlesinger, pretty good comic right? And she also wrote the thing, so it will be pretty good then I say to myself. Anyways, after talking to myself on spot right then and there, I realise to watch it, see what the fuss is about. In the en...

Cool Kids Pray, So Should You In reading order, images belong to Netflix, Netflix, Netflix. We do not own any of the images and we do not claim any right on them.  Starring Kevin Quinn and Bailee Madison, A Week Away, A Musical is a Netflix movie. A lot of a there. Anyways, A Week Away features some really decent tunes yes, but starting off, let's point out that it is a pro-christian propaganda movie at some level as well, so keep that in mind when you read our review on it. Welcome back mortals, feel lost on Netflix and wondering if this is the one for you? Perfect, we have just the review for you today. A Week Away, in a nutshell, follows Will (That's Kevin Quinn) on his mighty adventures leading him to Jesus. The musical starts off with Will stealing a cop car for some reason, some good reason we never got to know. (Or that I forgot, it's not really a movie to remember, you see) Anyways, when the cop catches him with the car he stole, I think, he gets caught and is kic...

The Map Of Tiny Perfect Things (2021) Movie Review

Image
 Surprisingly Good, Surprisingly Amusing Meet Mark, a hyperenergetic teen who just loves to mess arround. There's a catch though, he lives the same day over and over. Every single day of his life is the last one repeated. He knows exactly what will happen, exactly what people will say, will do. (Yes, like the Groundhog Day, exactly like that) (Yes, also like the Edge Of Tomorrow, well, minus all the war stuff) Mark is a teen with a perfect family that he has problems with. He is mortal enemies with his sister, like every teen in the world, and he's angry at his father for not making more money. Still, Mark is a really good kid, and a really good person. He just has that thing, the one with living the same day over and over. Just when he thinks he's the only non-dreamer in the world, Margaret happens. Margaret is a girl of his dream, since she is also a non-dreamer. They start a friendship and become more than that real soon. Well, to Mark at least. Though Margaret has other...

Squared Love (2021) Movie Review

Image
  A cliche, but there's more! Actually, not really. Squared Love of Netflix, also knows as Milosc do kwadratu, was a Netflix suprise for sure. The movie is starring Adrianna Chlebicka and Mateusz Banasiuk. The movie follows a classic romantic feel good vibe with a standart, strict plot, totally open for cliches. (And you know how much we love those!) In the end, we kinda had to watch it just for that. Anyways, the movie follows Monika and Enzo on their journey called acting. Enzo is a womanizer, whatever that means. Monika is a hardworking, papa loving, trust giving angel/teacher. Monika is teaching a class as her day job, but that's not enough to pay her father's debt to some mafia thug, so she also becomes an actress. (Yep, just like that) She shoots photos for magazines, and acts in ads mostly. She's not happy being an actress though, because she thinks her father wouldn't be so happy about that, for.. some reason. So as expected from a romantic cliche, she has t...

Image
 There's always a more creative way to scam people and make a fortune out of it, the world is changing you see. I Care A Lot shows the viewer just that.. well, and beyond. Meet Marla Grayson (One and only Rosamund Pike), the woman behind the idea of abusing the guardianship once and for all. Marla is a court-appointed legal guardian who cares a lot about the ones under her wings, well, to the judge's information that is. You see, she actually is a.. uhm... a scammer. She basically has a web of business, which has a doctor and a caring facility manager in it. She uses this web to simply get some old people into daycare and isolate them from their families, and estates of course, and then just.. rob them blind. A perfect scam isn't it? Well, her latest ward is a cherry, a moneymaker. No family, no relatives, it's a golden cow. But is it?  Starring Rosamund Pike as lovely businesswoman/scammer Marla Grayson, and Peter Dinklage (Yes, from Game Of Thrones) as the scary, yet...
