The kissing booth 2 lol....was fairly decently...the teenage drama was so stranger to me, i guess its cause im grown now, but i dont get why kids dont talk to their parents instead of keeping secrets lol and not expressing themselves properly. And i mean parents allowing kids to make life decisions that includes a gf/bf choice to which college they should go to lol..wow, But was a good watch.

The last movie I saw was Trouble with the Curve. This is a Clint Eastwood movie. It also starred Amy Adams and Justin Timberlake. Great movie about a baseball scout. The scout, played by Eastwood, is getting up in years and can’t see as well. He is tasked with evaluating one of the country’s top batters for recruitment. It is a story of how he must prove to his bosses that he can still get the job done- all while rebuilding a relationship with his daughter. It’s a fantastic story of various life lessons. I would rate it a 5/5, for sure!

The last movie I saw was Little Women. The most recent version directed by Greta Gerwig. I loved it. Even though it hasn't even been a year since it came out, I've already seen it 3 times. It's going on my favorite movie list with others such as Singing in the Rain, West Side Story, Freedom Writers, and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.

I think it's such a great coming of age story that resonates even now. The sisters, even though they all grew up with the same ideals from their parents, are so different. They have different goals, aspirations, values, and flaws. We see them all shine through on these characters. I feel like I can see myself in all of them than resonating with any one character. I understand Jo and her need to write and explore, but I also feel like Meg in also wanting a family and love. Then, Beth is the kinder side of me who is peaceful, patient, and loving. Amy is the current part of me I'm trying to explore, being more assertive, forward and upfront with what I want. The lessons you learn in it too are so great. Forgiving and moving on. Not being with someone when you don't really love them. How your dreams are important no matter what they may be and even if they're different from everyone else's standards. I love it and I could go on forever about this movie.

I have the book on my phone. I got it for free on Apple Books. I'm hoping to read it and dig even deeper into this wonderful story.

My most recent movie is In the Tall Grass, a film that was made based on Stephen King and Joe Hill's 2012 novella. The genre is horror, as King's trademark, with a bit of supernatural. Both of the time and the space in that grass field are really messed up, but that's what gives us the goosebumps. The visual is good, too, but it's also quite bloody and psychic. I would say it's 8 out of 10.

The last movie I saw was Beverly Hills Ninja. It was definitely a comedy movie, and it was very silly. My whole family was laughing.

I rate this movie 7.5 out of 10 :)

Dracula: Untold It was pretty good: 7 out of 10. Interesting take on an old story and sad but with an interesting ending.

The last movie I watched was called "The Old Guard" on Netflix. To give a short summary without spoiling the movie, it is about a small group of immortal protectors that have lived throughout many centuries, saving the world time and time again in secret. The group is forced to stay in hiding in hopes of preserving their secret and continue being protectors from the shadows. Although immortal, they could lose immortality at any time without warning. Looking for answers, the group takes in another guard with newly awakened powers, their entire existence being turned upside down and facing trials and tribulations they never thought imaginable.
I give this movie 4 out of 5 stars. I did not have any expectations going into it, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that I thoroughly enjoyed the movie from beginning to end.

I recently just watched 'The Final Wish'...I really enjoyed it. Every time you think you know what's going to happen, something totally surprising happens and just throws you off ! I love suspense and horror movies like this one.
