DAILY DOSE OF SUNSHINE (A Series that Educates on Mental Health)

Daily Dose Of Sunshine certainly wants to present to us the value of living life with a good mentality. In the case of Ri-Na, for example. A patient with bipolar, we can get a valuable conclusion that mental disorders experienced by someone can actually be caused by the people closest to us, such as family. In an ideal perspective, family members are usually our main support system in living life, but it is not uncommon for cases like patient Na-Ri, to have to live life as a bipolar person because of her mother's overprotective attitude. Or in another case, Daily Dose Of Sunshine also presents a case of hallucinations and extraordinary delusions experienced by Seo-Wan. Due to the fierce competition in qualifying to become a civil servant, Seo-Wan ends up trapped in hallucinations into a game world. The game became the best escape for Seo-Wan when she did not pass the selection and felt like giving up on the academy she attended. Besides Ri-Na and Seo-Wan, there are many other cases.

Leave The World Behind (2023) - Review: “mientras menos sepas mejor”

As for the premise, it is very simple, however what makes it interesting is wanting to know why strange things are happening and wanting to see how our protagonists get out of that situation, but if we look at the "story" itself is not complicated, the confusing thing is to put together the puzzle to find what is causing the chaos. I personally consider myself a fan of suspense movies, I feel that most of these movies keep us hooked until the end, until we finally get answers (and it is not even like that in all cases), but also suspense movies look for a different way to show us the facts.

Remake of a Christmas classic: The Grinch - Is it up to par?

I think we all know the Grinch movie from 2000, starring Jim Carrey who gives a perfect performance, with spectacular makeup that still surprises us to this day, like every classic movie for these times several years after they were released. its Remake, but this time in a cartoon, which came to the big screen, but was it necessary? That is to say, making a Remake is always a job that is twice as worrying since reaching the level at which we have the original film is very difficult, so if you have not seen it, I will tell you a little about whether it is worth it or not.

Leave the World Behind - Movie Review

One of the attractive points of this film is the important cast, having actors like Julia Roberts, Ethan Hawke and Mahershala Ali, is undoubtedly a plus; I liked that each one has an important participation, each one has a point of view that contributes a lot to the story, although I must say that both Roberts and Ali, has more prominence, between them there are different ways to deal with the situation, first it is paranoia or disbelief, but when a specific moment comes, every thought or every belief you have, collapses to recognize a strong reality. Despite pointing out the two best actors of the film, my favorite character is Rose, Played by Farrah Mackenzie, in her is an important point of view in the story and that is relegated by her young age, but in her is the interpretation of the priority that she has as a new generation, a priority that makes her happy among so much misfortune, I think in the end that is what every person thinks, but that as an adult, changes radically.

Several killers on one train, what could go wrong? - Review: Bullet Train | 2022 |

The best of the movie are its action scenes without a doubt, I think they are very well done, plus you can feel those moments of adrenaline when they start, I'm not an expert in the aspect of combat, but honestly everything looks too real and this in an action movie makes it incredible, each one of the actors plays an incredible role and the special effects that are incorporated also bring a lot to these scenes, not to mention also the shots of these moments, it really is one of the best I've seen in terms of action, although I must say that I am not to see many movies of this type and yet it is a movie that I would see many times.

Wonka: magic, music and chocolates, lots of chocolates

In short, it is a "Christmas" story that is practically nothing like the previous versions. It is watchable, as the film is aimed at a child audience (keep this in mind) but if you still retain your child essence you will like it. It is a very well-made movie and in this violent and dehumanized world, those spaces to immerse yourself in a fantasy time are valued, with musicals, excellent choreography, very good performances, and a message to never stop dreaming.

Christmas Contest: The Polar Express🎄A magical journey at Christmas🎄

I love this story because it shows values such as friendship, faith and teamwork; although the film almost entirely takes place in the spaces of the Polar Express, because there are several situations that show the value of friendship, wanting to help others sincerely, they are also in trouble and that makes everyone do an excellent teamwork to get out of such situations leaving aside any differences. This animated film conveys what Christmas really is and that spirit of magic and joy that lives in every being, especially in children who are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Santa and while that happens they let their imagination fly as to all the charm of these dates; charm that shows us each scene between snow, magic, lights and rejoicing.

Luck | The world of luck is interesting

The plot is quite simple, the adventure is pleasant and the jokes are simple but they fulfill their function, the combination of the previous elements is linked with the moments of fantasy that keep the film interesting at all times. The narrative remains simple, however it is curious that it introduces the theme of a different family. By the above I am not referring to LGBT families or anything similar, but to those people who, despite not sharing blood ties remain a pillar of unconditional support and form a place where you feel loved and safe, a pleasant concept that is approached in a good way. The duration is well used, at no point does it feel dull or excessively long, every minute is used in a good way to correctly develop the premise.

Review | Yo antes de ti - Me Before You (2016)

At first the relationship between the two does not go very well because of the situation that happens Will has become a grumpy and empathetic man to life and it is not for less because before his accident was an active person, an athlete looking for adventure that enjoyed life to the fullest, to such an extent is his annoyance that has tried to take his life, but even so with the charisma and the witticisms of Louisa that attitude comes to change.

WISH - The animation movie review

The characters are all under developed and even the formulaic comic relief (a talking goat) is pretty lame. It almost seems as if the movie was made up of parts of other stories that weren't good enough to complete. If you want to see a movie involving wishing upon a star, go see Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. Wish is probably the most generic Disney Film ever made. It really deserved better. After all, the writers include Jennifer Lee (Frozen, Wreck-it Ralph and Zootopia) and Chris Buck (Frozen, Tarzan, Pocahontas).

Christmas Contest - Review || ❄️🎄 LA NAVIDAD ESTÁ SERVIDA🎄❄️ || Netflix Christmas movie (2022)

In my opinion the story itself is very original for a typical one where the protagonists meet and immediately feel an attraction, and although it is not the case, I liked that they first met and formed a nice friendship to support each other with each other's responsibilities. As I mentioned before, "Christmas is served" is a Christmas film where a nice relationship is born between two totally opposite people, on the one hand we have Molly Frost played by (Merritt Patterson), a girl who loves to cook and manages her own catering service, and especially at Christmas time she likes to stand out since her specialty is desserts and traditional and sweet Christmas recipes. Just on the eve, she is presented with a great opportunity to represent and be in charge of organizing the banquet of a well-known family in town for a charity party that is held every year in support of underprivileged children so that they can always enjoy a Christmas like everyone else. At that, she meets a newcomer and family member Carson Harrison played by (Daniel Lissing). At first he does not plan to stay since he is not involved in any plan of the organization, but due to health problems of his aunt who is in charge, he will change his plans and try to help her even though he knows nothing of the work that is done there, and there will enter our protagonist Molly, who will help him to get the event forward to not disappoint his aunt and especially the children who depend on the funds obtained from that event to have a Christmas as they deserve.
