You know the story: movies based on games are rarely, if ever, good. Yet, my stupid monkey brain refuses to listen to sense.
You know they say it takes the loss of something to actually miss it? We’re never going to get that with Alice in Wonderland ever again. This time through the rabbit hole, Alice must retrieve a magical scepter to stop the evil Lord of Time, Sacha Baron Cohen.

In Onur Tukel’s Applesauce, Ron (also played by Tukel) calls into a sketchy radio show, where they are talking about “the worst thing they’ve ever done”.

IMDb describes Bone Tomahawk as a horror western in which four men set out to rescue captives from cannibalistic cave dwellers. Honestly, it looks fun enough with Matthew Fox’s character shooting anyone that even tries to talk to their group. Then there’s that “cannibal” trying to stick a large bone down Kurt Russell’s mouth.
Hannah and Tahir fall in love on the streets of New York. They are both homeless. Shelter explores their pasts and leads to the realization that they need each other to have a future.
I’ve entered a phase of my life where I’m just so bored with English movies unless they’re superhero movies or indie flicks. Hence, I’m looking outside U.S.
