RECAP-BMF(Ep.1)

Image
Season 2 of BMF is back on our tv screens, and immediately we are back into the bs. We start the episode off seeing Meech in Las Vegas, and while he’s there he sees all the top players in drug game. He plans on bringing back some keys with him to Detroit but not before he notices drug dogs at the airport. Meech being the quick thinker that he is he decides to take a bus instead. Back in Detroit Terry is still out the drug game but he has his eyes on a different prize. With his baby mom seemingly out the picture he tries to holler at a woman name Keisha, played by LaLa Anthony. Now, side note, this may be a hot take but I’m just tired of seeing LaLa on my TV screen. I feel like that role could’ve gone to a fresh new upcoming actress, but I digress 🤷🏾‍♀️ Anywho, we see throughout this episode that meech and Terry are not exactly speaking, not that there any beef but they just aren’t seeing eye to Terry’s one eye🤣🤣sorry I couldn’t help myself🤣 Terry is trying to make an honest living

REVIEW-HOUSE PARTY(2023)

 Ok, so it's officially been 24 hours since I've watched the remake of House Party. Immediately leaving the theater, I was smiling from ear to ear with satisfaction. I was smiling mostly because my 90s inner kid was full.  This film paid homage to the original House Party in a way that was very tasteful without trying too hard. Lots of people will have their opinions about this film and hold it directly up to the original, but I don't think that's necessary because House Party 2023 isn't trying to take the place of the original, it's just telling a similar story about friendship and bad decisions that work out in the end. This film was funny without trying to be funny, and I could tell by the bloopers shown at the end, that the cast had a great time filming. What I Liked:  I told myself that I would not compare this film to the original 1990 House Party , and just view it with an open mind, but I couldn't help but to watch and wait for the call backs to the

New House Party film? Will it live up to the hype or will it crash and burn?

So when I initially heard about a remake of the 1990 classic House Party, I immediately dismissed it.  Up until last week I still wasn’t sold, but after watching the trailer and doing a bit of research, I can say that I’m willing to give it a watch and go into it with an open mind. House Party starts Jacob Latimore and Tosin Cole. It’s directed by Calmatic and written by Stephen Glover and Jamal Olori.  Here are some reasons why I think this film may stand a chance to be good. 1. It has an ensemble cast and crew behind the scenes 2. New Line Cinema and Lebron James’ Springhill Productions are behind this film  3. It’s rated R 4. Kid & Play seem to be in support of this project Also judging by the trailer, there will be a few cameos, and surprise guests at this party😮I don’t have any expectations and I plan on going into this film with an open mind, hopefully with Stephen Glover and Jamal Olori (both writers on FX's Atlanta ) behind the scenes they’ll find a way to give us some

REVIEW-Monogamish(2023)

HAPPY NEW YEAR Y'ALL!! I’m so excited for all the new movies that are to come this year. With that being said, I wanted to let you all know about the very first independent film I watched on Tubi called Monogamish. Synopsis: Zane a successful real-estate broker, is asked by her husband if they could see other people and help their marriage succeed. What I liked:  As expected the production quality was good, acting was a little stale at times, but the cast exceeded my overall expectations. I loved the cinematography of this film, especially the aerial shots of the city. This film was directed and written by Marquand Ragland. Monogamish was my introduction to this North Carolina based director, and I must say he did a good job. Monogamish was a breath of fresh air as my first review of the year. Of course this film had its share of betrayal and backstabbing, but it was written very well and tastefully. What needed work:  Although I thought Zane's character was very relatable, I f
