Late Night With The Devil is the perfect example that simple things, when done well, can be extremely memorable and successful. I simply loved the atmosphere of the 70s and even more so the fact that they used real figures and societies from that time in the film, such as the Bohemian Grove. This made the film even more interesting for me. It is also worth highlighting that, at the beginning of the film, we quickly see frames of Charles Manson and the Manson girls, amidst images that illustrate the events and fears of that time. The script, although simple, was very well written. The cinematography in the film is incredible. The cast is wonderful, with absolute emphasis on David Dastmalchian. I think this was the first film I've seen in which he is the protagonist. Here, he plays a dubious character, although the script makes it almost explicit that he, in fact, made some kind of satanic pact to obtain fame and success. The rest of the cast members were amazing, too. I can't wait to watch it again.

Nowadays, it’s really hard to find a really good rom–com movie. I think it was written well enough for nowadays and was very cute. The story is based off of a Shakespeare play much to do about nothing. Leaving the two main character still named Ben and Bea for Benjamin and Beatrice from the play. I would watch it again. I felt all the Actors were chosen well for their characters. And of course, the host of Shibumy theaters Ron, and Mark make your experience even better. Will return to this theater many times.

How is it possible that the sequel to Ridley Scott's "Prometheus" could wind up being an even more debated, divisive, and controversial entry in the inherently unpredictable "Alien" franchise? "Alien: Covenant" is that film, doubling as a true sequel to the cerebral "Prometheus" and the close quarters action-terror of "Alien." But wait, this is Ridley Scott we are dealing with here! If you thought this was going to be a retread or the sequel you expected... guess again. I found just about all of it exciting, well made, and (as a huge Alien fan) a welcome bridge to the past. No, it's not in the same league as either Scott's or Cameron's original two films, and I do think "Prometheus" is superior, but "Alien: Covenant" is exactly the left field "anti-fan service" that any long-running franchise should welcome. It's not flawless, but it worked for me. Like it's precursor it's destined to be discussed and dissected for years to come. Pick a side.

This 2023 musical is engaging and emotional, drawing you into the feelings of the characters through the excellent voices and performances of its cast, esp. Taraji P. Henson, Danielle Brooks and Fantasia Barrino, through its memorable songs and music, and through a story that though imperfect and has some problems, never fail to show that though God lets us go through intense pain and sufferings, he is with us and one day will bring justice against those who've hurt us and give us light and joy.

Acting was so bad by literally every character... I couldn't really get through it. Seriously, the acting was cringe inducingly bad, I didn't believe a single line in the entire movie. The actual story was beyond cliché and corny. At the same time, the plot made no sense, they pretend to be a couple when people already knew they weren't for their mutual benefit after they are just randomly thrown together in situations at a wedding. Random exes thrown in the mix for more cliché fake drama. Who has a destination wedding in Australia, and who actually goes to that wedding? But I guess tits and sexual tension bring this up to 1 star. I like rom coms and raunchy comedies, but this was trash, neither authentically romantic nor funny. The ending montage song made me physically ill with embarrassment. I want my money back.
