Movie Reviews

We all have our escapes. For me, that escape often comes in the form of a flickering screen, filled with captivating stories. Whether it’s to unwind after a long day, learn something new, or simply get lost in another world, movies and web series are my go-to stress buster (or maybe even a guilty pleasure!)

But not all escapes are light and breezy. Sometimes, the things we watch leave a lasting impression, sparking thought-provoking ideas or lingering with a sense of unease. Here, I’ve compiled a list of movies and shows that have stayed with me long after the credits rolled – for better or worse. Take a peek and see if anything piques your interest, or be prepared to have your mind blown (or disturbed!)

Every viewer is going to get a different thing. That’s the thing about painting, photography, cinema.
