How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies (2024)
AAubrey_HardingAugust 1, 2025
Even though the grandmother couldn’t afford to buy a grave, she didn't even consider using the one million she gave to her grandson. It's heartbreaking.

This movie ambitiously attempts to tackle various themes, but it ultimately falls short in execution. It clearly wants to dive into the jury system like 12 Angry Men while also exploring the morality and humanity of the characters. On top of that, it throws in some crime, thriller, and detective vibes, but none of it really comes together in a satisfying way.

I wasn’t expecting it to go this way, but wow—what a story! While the plot itself isn’t anything groundbreaking, seeing it through Clint Eastwood’s lens makes it all the more interesting. In his recent films like Sully, Gran Torino, and Richard Jewell, the protagonists are usually characters that represent justice—especially in Sully and Richard Jewell, where they’re wrongfully accused but still end up doing something good. But here, the protagonist faces a tough moral dilemma.It’s a compelling conflict, and the twist at the end really sealed the deal for me. The jury scenes felt a bit rushed, but still, this is definitely one of the must-watch films of the year.

At 70, Liam Neeson is starting to show his age—his movements and fight scenes just don’t have the sharpness they used to. The script doesn’t help either; it’s super basic. An FBI director with just a few agents, and they’re taken down so easily? Come on. And the most ridiculous part—keeping important information in a common safe? They might as well gift-wrap it for the bad guys. The only silver lining is that Liam Neeson’s rescue missions have leveled up. He’s no longer just saving his family from gangsters; now he’s taking on the FBI. At this rate, I wouldn’t be surprised if his next mission is saving someone from aliens.

Just another popcorn flick. The plot drags on with very little common sense and suspense, even the fight scenes are dull. It looks like Uncle Liam’s rescue series has finally run out of steam!

Watching this show was such a wild ride—tears, laughter, and everything in between. The central theme of trusting someone to share and lessen your fears really hit home. It reminds us there is not a best way to handle things; but it’s probably better to not handle it alone.

This feels like one of those generic American TV dramas. Only watch it if you really ran out of stuff to watch.

If I were in the game, I’d definitely be the one willing to split the money before it even starts.

Honestly, Squid Game already had a reality show, and this one is basically an upgrade. More people, more money, and fancier settings. But what really makes it stand out is that it’s not really about competition; it’s about luck and testing human nature. Watching a bunch of regular people go for the prize is way more fun than seeing celebrities pretend to try hard. I mean, regular folks actually care about that cash, which makes it way more entertaining to watch!ore
Kraven the Hunter (2024)
AAdelynn_LangAugust 1, 2025
This film doesn't even deserve a 500-word critique. It's simply outdated, mediocre, and overly verbose. By the time you stand up to leave, you feel as if it's two hours of your life wasted.

Well, it looks like Sony has finally managed to ruin its own Spider-Man universe. They’d rather lose money on films like Morbius, Madame Web, and now Kraven the Hunter, than make a Spider-Man 4 with Tobey Maguire.

It’s definitely a good idea to check out the basic plot of the novel Queer before diving in, or you’ll end up just as confused as I was in the second half...

This film totally has that classic Luca Guadagnino vibe. It’s divided into four chapters, and honestly, while the first two are stunning, the last two take a wild turn into absurdity. After watching it, I finally understood what the Venice Film Festival's "star is born" comment was all about. Drew Starkey looks absolutely gorgeous on screen. It’s been ages since I’ve seen a character who makes my heart race the moment they pop up.

The entire animation features Daft Punk as the soundtrack. The animation was average, it was a blast to just listen to Daft Punk for an hour and a half in the theater—especially as a music fan. Towards the end, a few classic DP music videos played, and then the screen went black for over a minute, which made me think the projectionist forgot to turn on the lights. Turns out, the ending had Daft Punk, in helmets, greeting the camera and saying goodbye.

I also wish I could shed my current skin, be told that I don’t belong to this world, and set out to reclaim my original memories to return to my distant planet.

This movie feels like nothing more than showing off its technical expertise. It plays out like an extended game trailer.

I binged all eight episodes in one sitting, and I have to say, the difference in story depth and themes compared to Love, Death & Robots is huge. This spin-off series feels more like an action flick stretched into episodes. The narratives are pretty surface-level, and honestly, I started losing interest after a few episodes. That said, it’s undeniably well-produced. The special effects are on par with Hollywood blockbusters, which is impressive. Maybe hardcore gamers will find it more engaging than I did.

What really blows you away is how it cleverly weaves in the political context. It exposes how the U.S. arms lobby used its own people as guinea pigs for biological and chemical weapons just to push a bill through. The way it digs into these dark truths is seriously impressive. While we're hooked by the stunning visuals, we’re also left thinking about the deeper implications. Honestly, this is one of those films that are worth a rewatch.

This film provides a detailed overview of airport security. It covers everything from the meticulous passenger security checks to the stringent baggage screening process, to the brilliant design of aircraft departures and cargo hold structures. The entire operation of the security system is laid out in vivid detail, offering a truly eye-opening experience!

Janine went to another school district... does this mean her and Gregory’s chances are even slimmer now? I’m not ready to give up on them yet!
