So I watched M3GAN 2.0 (2025)
M3GAN 2.0 (2025), directed by Gerard Johnstone, arrives with the challenging task of following up the surprise hit of 2023. Where the original film carved out a unique niche blending campy horror with surprising emotional depth and sharp social commentary on technology and parenting, the sequel makes a decisive shift in tone and genre that proves to be both its greatest strength and most significant weakness.

SHELL Review: A Body Horror Comedy that Entertains
Shell is a body horror black comedy directed by Max Minghella, starring Elisabeth Moss and Kate Hudson. The film tells about the obsession for beauty and youth in Hollywood and in society in general. Shell could well be a parody of The Substance, the body horror movie directed by Caralie Fargeat, which was the big sensation of 2024.

Finally Sat Down to Watch Midsommar (2019)
Ari Aster's 2019 film Midsommar represents an ambitious and polarizing entry in contemporary horror cinema. Following his acclaimed debut *Hereditary*, Aster crafts a folk horror experience that deliberately inverts the genre's visual conventions while exploring the dissolution of a toxic relationship against the backdrop of a Swedish pagan festival. The result is a film that is simultaneously beautiful and disturbing, meditative and visceral, earning both ardent admirers and vocal detractors.

Jurassic World: A Promising Rebirth or a Familiar Rehash?
When the Jurassic World: Dominion credits rolled, a collective sigh of relief and, for many, a sense of finality was palpable. The trilogy had concluded, but the dinosaur saga, now a global phenomenon, felt more apathetic than ever. Enter Jurassic World Rebirth, a title that, from its inception, promised to revitalize a franchise bogged down by its own ambition. With the return of original Jurassic Park scribe David Koepp and the visually masterful Gareth Edwards at the helm, the hype was undeniable. The question, however, remained: could this film live up to its name, or was it destined to be another echo of a bygone era? The answer, as it turns out, is a complicated mix of both.

This 2002 film is not just a foray into the realm of rap ut a reflection of a man's battle within himself with his own personal demons. It is a raw and unflinching story that lingers long after the end credits.

3 TV Shows and 10 Truths: From Background Hummus to Main Course
For decades, Hollywood treated Arab women like background hummus, flat, decorative, and just there to make someone else look exotic. Veiled, silent, or sighing theatrically, they were reduced to one-note caricatures. Finally, that’s changing.
