If Te'o's participation in this documentary was to convince you how and why he formed this "fake" relationship, I appreciate his bravery behind that decision because I now look at this story in a different light.

Heat is an interesting crime thriller in the sense that there are no heroes. It's a portrait of horrible men who refuse to change their lot in life despite how it affects those they are closest with.

This documentary hit close to home. My wife is the state director for the YMCA Oklahoma Youth and Government program, so I have experience with this program as a volunteer and an employee of the Y.

Prey does an amazing job of capturing the spirit that made the original film such a hit. This prequel strips away all the nuances that similar sci-fi/action flicks fall prey to (pun unattended).

Houseguest was one of those movies that I loved as a teenager. I always thought Sinbad was hilarious, and who doesn't love Phil Hartman? I saw this pop up on Hulu and immediately wanted to engage.

Look Both Ways has an interesting premise, although not new. It's a pleasant ride. The story is simple and the characters are relatable but by the end, I couldn't quite understand why it took almost two hours of runtime to get to its ultimate conclusion.

Maybe I should have lowered my expectations for The Lost City. It appeared as a blatant rip-off of Romancing the Stone, but I was okay with that because I liked the idea of Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum in the same film together.

Marcel the Shell with Shoes On is probably one of the most adorable things that you’ll ever see. But don't let the genuine cuteness of this start-stop animation mockumentary fool you. It's full of heartfelt emotional depth and this little one-inch-tall shell embodies the struggles that our society has gone through the past couple of years.

It's fun to see how everything unfolds, although it's far from perfect. And when Al Pacino is one of the more grounded actors in the story, you know that says a lot about the ridiculousness that is shown by others. But somehow it is a fun mess to behold.

I think it's fair to say that Jordan Peele has cemented himself as one of my favorite filmmakers. After seeing Nope, he has made three solid movies that are some of the most memorable films I've seen in the last ten years.

Lawrence of Arabia is a tremendous portrait of leadership and serves as a warning to those who are so willing to lead others into battle.

It takes a moment to fully appreciate the character of Julie (the fantastic) Renate Reinsve) in The Worst Person in the World. She's a character that very much exists in this world that we often don't get to see on screen.

Why did Dewey Cox have to ruin the musician biopic? Or was it VH1's Behind the Music? It's unfair to judge a film before you see it, but I never imagined myself seeing this movie in the theater until my in-laws heaped lavish praise upon it.

I'm a huge NBA fan and as a fan, it's hard not to love Giannis Antetokounmpo's talent, passion and story. Some of the best sports movies are about underdogs and Rise perfectly fits into that category.

It's funny when you revisit a movie from your youth. I probably haven't seen Ski Patrol since I was ten. Up to this point, I couldn't have told you what happened in this movie, but as I rewatched this movie, it was incredible how many memories came flooding back.

If you are in any way a sports fan, and especially an NBA fan, Hustle is a must-watch. Even if you aren't a basketball fan, there is plenty to enjoy about this film. Like other sports movies, Hustle uses basketball as a vessel to tell about the struggle of the underdog.

Even though I haven't seen his first feature, Cooper Raiff is a director who has a style that I'm naturally drawn to. It made sense that he has a major connection to Jay Duplass because Cha Cha Real Smooth reminded me of the same awkward humor and charm of the Duplass brothers.

Complex, but approachable. Absurd, but relatable. Unique, but familiar. There are so many words that came to mind when I finished Everything Everywhere All at Once, yet I couldn't pinpoint the perfect one. I was stunned by what I experienced. This movie is an assault on all your senses in all the right ways.

I loved the question that this documentary poses. What do you associate with Kenny G’s music? For me, it was listening to my parent’s CD, Breathless, as a child as we cleaned the house on Saturday mornings.

It happened. I didn't think I would see the day, but an A24 film failed to live up to my expectations. Zola is upfront that it's based on a viral Twitter thread and though the premise is intriguing at first, it loses its shine rather quickly.
