LIGHTYEAR
Buzz Lightyear is back, but in not exactly in the way most fans remember the character. Most Toy Story fans know and love the character as a Space Ranger action figure who has belonged to children Andy and Bonnie. However, this is not another Toy Story movie. In the foreword of the film, it is… Continue reading LIGHTYEAR
Cine Las Americas 2022: MIJA (MY DAUGHTER)
This year, I was able to watch only one documentary, but I am certainly happy that Mija is that film. This United States entry tells the story of Doris Munoz, an ambitious and hard-working music talent manager, who, at the beginning of the film, has achieved some success managing successful Latinx artist Cuco. And while… Continue reading Cine Las Americas 2022: MIJA (MY DAUGHTER)
Cine Las Americas 2022: YO Y LAS BESTIAS (ME AND THE BEASTS)
From Venezuela, comes a musical fantasy that pretty a much comes across as an extended musical short. Writer/director Nico Manzano, with Yo Y Las Bestias, has created a visually striking film with very engaging music. However, when it comes to the narrative, that’s where the movie gets rather messy. This is very much an art… Continue reading Cine Las Americas 2022: YO Y LAS BESTIAS (ME AND THE BEASTS)

JURASSIC WORLD DOMINION
Muchos de nosotros de cierta edad/generación podemos recordar cuando la película de acción/aventura/ciencia ficción de Steven Spielberg Jurassic Park llegó a los cines en 1993. Desde entonces, hemos tenido cuatro más, la más reciente en 2018, Jurassic World: Fallen Reino. La emoción del mundo cinematográfico lleno de dinosaurios ha permanecido para los fanáticos originales hace… Continue reading JURASSIC WORLD DOMINION
JURASSIC WORLD DOMINION
Four years after the destruction of Isla Nublar, dinosaurs now live–and hunt–alongside humans all over the world. This fragile balance will reshape the future and determine, once and for all, whether human beings are to remain the apex predators on a planet they now share with history’s most fearsome creatures in a new Era (IMDB).… Continue reading JURASSIC WORLD DOMINION
JURASSIC WORLD DOMINION
Well, hopefully this franchise will now finally conclude. It started off so well, but because people love action-packed monster movies, Hollywood hopes to milk this desire for every penny. Though I enjoyed (to various degrees) the first trilogy of Jurassic Park, I have never been a massive fan of the “reboot” trilogy that has struggled… Continue reading JURASSIC WORLD DOMINION
