My first romance film I chose for this blog was 10 Things I Hate About You. It was directed by Gil Junger and came out in 1999. This movie stars Julie Stiles and Heath Ledger.  Review : 10 Things I Hate About You is a romantic comedy of two young teens navigating love, independence, and identity. This film follows disobedient Kat Stratford, Julia Stiles, and the strange and peculiar bad boy Patrick Verona, Heath Ledger. What this movie highlights is the sharp humor and clever dialogue and how it shows the balance of teenage emotional experience with making it both heartfelt and entertaining.  (Photo by imdb.com ) Ranking : I absolutely love this movie and would rank this movie a 10/10.

Drama films have a special way of exposing different kinds of human emotions. These emotions such as pain, love, and control truly make a drama movie great. These movies can help us step into the shoes of the movie's characters, to feel their struggles in life like they were our own.  Whether the drama movie focuses on love or loss, these movies explore the depths that maybe some comedies and action can overlook. Drama movies express wonderful performances, strong storytelling, and great emotional experiences. This can really make us viewers reflect on our own life stories and reveal that not every story has a hero or villain, but a person facing unbelievable emotions.  (Photo from Clker.com) My first movie I chose for this post was Don’t Worry Darling, it was directed by Olivia Wilde and came out in 2022.

Ever since I was little, I was never really into action packed movies. Whenever action movie night was happening in the living room with my family, I would always just go upstairs or beg my parents to change the movie. My dad and my brother were always into superhero movies and I started to get jealous from how much they spoke about this genre. I finally ended up giving action movies a chance. Ever since then, I have watched many action movies and will continue to watch this genre. However, I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite genre but I do think that action movies always have such a great storyline within each one. Action movies can show the viewers the importance of movies and why we watch movies through making us escape and feel alive.  (Photo from Clker.com) The first movie that struck my mind was F1: The Movie . This action movie came out this year in June and it was directed by Joseph Kosinski. This movie was visually engaging for me and had a really strong performance overall. R...

Everyone has that one movie or few movies that just brings you joy and pure laughter . For me, it’s White Chicks and Step Brothers. It never matters how many times I watch these two movies, they both will never fail to make me laugh. Comedy movies can do more than make everyone laugh. They can connect us through shared laughter, they can remind us it's okay to find humor in life's chaos, and they can show how humans can be ridiculous.  For this post, I’ll be exploring two of my favorite comedies and what makes them so memorable.  (Photo by Pinterest) One comedy that came straight to mind is White Chicks . This comedy came out in 2004 and it was directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans. In my opinion this is one movie that is impossible not to laugh at because of how outrageous it is.  Review: This movie follows two undercover FBI agents who act as wealthy socialites to solve a kidnapping case. It has dramatic disguises, with hilarious situations, and has numerous entertaining sce...
