So literally everyone’s been telling me to watch Bob’s Burgers. I’ve heard how smart and funny it is. So I finally decided to give it a try. And I honestly really liked it. Though I want to give myself some time to really get into and see what it’s all about, I thought it was […]
Ernest and Celestine is simply a film of cuteness and beauty. The 2012 animated film manages to be bothcharming and endearing while still containing some dark and serious dramatic moments, particularly near its conclusion. The movie is centred around the unlikely friendship of the two title characters, a middle-aged bear and a little girl mouse […]
The first How to Train Your Dragon film took a tired storyline premise and managed to rework it with good characters, visuals and humour.

Studio Ghibli is probably the only anime studio that is consistently adored in the West by both its fan base and the critics. It’s one of the few anime studios that has a good enough track record to even be mentioned in mainstream media. Of course, a good part of that has to do with […]
It’s a little difficult to laud praise upon something that is a shamelessly transparent commercial. But seeing as it has a near perfect score everywhere you read about it, I don’t feel so bad calling The Lego Movie a really good film. What intrigued me about this movie, right off the bat, is how it […]
