FILM REVIEW:: THE GREATEST SHOWMAN

I really didn’t know what I was in for going into The Greatest Showman. The modern music infused into a New York City, where the country was going through the financial crisis in the late 1830s, made me almost cringe at how that would work. I heard the songs first. All of them. I loved them all. I just wasn’t sure how they would sit in a film that’s meant

FILM REVIEW:: JUMANJI: WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE

So, there’s a remake and a reboot. A remake is taking a classic, copy-pasting the story line, but remixing a few bits here and there. Ultimately, the film is exactly the same. I am happy to announce that what we have here is a reboot; a stand alone film which has a similar concept and shares the exact same title as a timeless classic. The reason it makes me so

The Entertainment World in 2017

People can’t get enough of Mariah Carey’s train wreck NYE performance. One day into 2017 and Ed Shearan saves us with an announcement of new music. We hear of the return of Will and Grace. Quickly followed by the news of a possible Charmed reboot. Janet announces birth of her first baby at the age of 50. Our first mass feud of the year is Chris Brown vs Soulja Boy.

GIG REVIEW:: Sia Live at AAMI Park, Melbourne

Sia isn’t one to do a lot of touring or live performing and when she does, she isn’t the one to focus on. That’s a lot of what I expected going into this concert at AAMI Park. The few live performances we have seen from her at award ceremonies or special appearances, she has allowed her music to speak for itself and given the stage to the art of music

FILM REVIEW:: JUSTICE LEAGUE

I’ve hated every new DC film made so far. Well, Suicide Squad was okay, but I have yet to see a new age Batman and Superman related film that I can say was awesome and not just DVD/Bluray worthy. Justice League was pretty close to making me say it was awesome. I didn’t hate it. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate it, and that is the most important part considering

GIG REVIEW:: Ariana Grande Live at Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne

It hasn’t been an easy road for Ariana Grande to get to Melbourne. With the tragedy of Manchester and Ari being understandably forced to cancel shows straight after, it’s awesome to finally have her in Australia and in high spirits again for her Dangerous Woman tour. This isn’t my first time seeing the tiny framed, long pony tailed, pop star. She supported Nicki Minaj during her surprise show at the

FILM REVIEW:: CARS 3

There is so much to be pleased with and there is just as much to be disappointed with when it comes to Disney Pixar’s, Cars 3. Rarely do we see this type of hero’s journey. Would you call it a win, or a straight up loss? Did the number 95 win the race or was he forced to retire in the pits? We start off with Lightening McQueen (voiced once

FILM REVIEW:: SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING

So, here we go again. Another Spider-Man movie. A third version. A different actor. However, this is not like what we’ve seen before. Oh no, not even the slightest. Spider-Man: Homecoming puts us right where we left off with Tom Holland’s Spidey – after Civil War and completely skips the spider bite story. Going back eight years, after the Avengers’ battle of New York, we start with former Batman turn

FILM REVIEW:: WONDER WOMAN

Hype has it that this is the best DC film, thus far. It has even been compared to Captain America: The First Avenger. Well, I’m here to tell you that both are sort of, kind of true. Wonder Woman is a spectacle with raw emotion by our superhero, and justified action. DC’s most dominate female hero, Wonder Woman has finally been brought to life, thanks to the extraordinary direction of

FILM REVIEW:: GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2

Finally the next installment of this great series of intertwining Marvel movies is here, and we fans are beyond ecstatic. However, what’s there to say about the second volume of Guardians of The Galaxy? Well, I’m a mixed bag of emotions with this one. I am almost numb. I really want to love it and at the same time, I really want to dislike it. I can’t come down to
