Category: Netflix Movies

Netflix movies are about movies that are on Netflix whether or not they are originally made for Netflix or later purchased, whether or not they have had theatrical runs or not, as long as the movie can be found on Netflix at this moment, it is what we mean – Netflix Movies. This is all about it. Any other addition is a/an (un)shameless attempt at SEO (we will come to that later).

The Last Thing He Wanted

The Last Thing He Wanted: Now, Here’s A Terrible Movie

When I wrote the review of “The Night Clerk”, I was reluctant to come out clearly and call it a bad movie. It was a confusing movie with weak premises and a plotline that demands a lot of tolerance from you. I concluded that the movie didn’t give itself a lot of redeeming points off ...

Netflix Naija

Netflix Naija Is Making Original Dramas For Nigeria: What It Means For Nollywood

It seemed just like yesterday when Nigerians lost their voices in their giddy celebration of the purchase of Genevieve’s “Lionheart” by streaming giant, Netflix. It also feels like a generation ago because we have now seen that there is nothing too special with being purchased and featured on Netflix – we have seen too many ...

ALL THE BRIGHT PLACES

All The Bright Places Review: When Romance Meets Tragedy

Romance is a genre of movie that is easy to get wrong. And it is not hard to tell why they get this wrong. They try to make romance about romance. War films are never about war alone; there is conflict. Crime, horror, comedy, all rely on something to run. But somehow, makers of romantic ...

To all the boys: P.S: I still love you

To All The Boys. P.S. I Still Love You Review: A Sigh Of Confusion

“To All The Boys: P.S. I Still Love You” is the kind of movie you would have on Netflix. This is not to say that Netflix is incapable of making great movies, far from it – “The Irishman” and “The Two Popes” are fine movies (although I am not crazy about the latter, I still ...

A fall from Grace

A Fall From Grace: A Nice Movie Served In Dirty Dish

Watching Tyler Perry’s “A Fall From Grace” reminded me of a South African play I read in High School. The play, “Sizwe Banzi Is Dead” is a one-man play. There are a couple of characters in the play and they are all played by one man. The film “A Fall From Grace” was written, produced, ...

The Two popes

The Two Popes: A Fine Film That Is Possibly A PR Job

The papacy is an intriguing subject for me. I am not a Catholic but I had always considered the Pope as the number one Christian on earth. When Pope John II the second visited my small town, I climbed fences, squeezed through barb wires and stinking armpits, scratched, kicked, and squeezed some more. All so ...

6 Underground

6 Underground Review: An Ambitious Movie, Just Like Fast & Furious, Just Inferior

There is a new franchise in town. It is named “6 Underground” and was directed by Michael Bay and produced by a team of Michael Bay, Ian Bryce, Dana Goldberg, David Ellison, and Don Granger for Netflix and starring Ryan Reynolds. The film is about a group of Americans who want to change the world ...

Marriage Story: Is The Oscar Buzz Justified?

We do celebrities on this site and our database is full of mentions of divorces. Mentions. We just mention that so and so has been married thrice and divorce twice. I have sometimes wondered why celebrities can’t just seem to remain married. And it is not an American thing anymore, the whole world is plagued ...

The Irishman

The Irishman Review: A Tall Order, Served With Rugged Brilliance

Today is not the day to ramble about originality and the lack of it in Hollywood. Most films in Hollywood you see today are novels adaptation such as this movie, or live-action remakings of cartoons, or new perspectives of a marvel character, or like this one inspired by a work of journalism, or sequel/spin-off, etc. ...

After movie

After Movie Review: The Good, The Bad, The Predictable

“Isn’t nice another word for boring?” This is Harding played by Hero Fiennes-Tiffin asking Tessa (Josephine Langford), while they swim in a brook, what a high school boy does to deserve a girl like Tessa and she said he is nice. In one line, “After” is a movie about a girl who goes to the ...

love is war

Love is War Is A Fine Movie Marred by Plot Inconsistency

Love is war and couples end up on the floor, couch, bed with every touch and kiss announcing a raw intensity – breathing comes fast, heart rates faster as every thrust makes the body writhe. However, for Hankuri (Yuri) Philips played by Omoni Oboli and Demeji Philips portrayed by Richard Mofe-Damijo, it was a love ...
