House Of Gucci
Let me start of by saying that I did zero research about this movie before watching it. I knew of the all star cast but that’s it. The premise is about relationship of Mauricio and Patrizia Gucci and the years after. The Gucci family is a complicated and prideful one with many different dynamics. Insults … Continue reading House Of Gucci

It's witty and funny and just suspenseful enough to make you want to keep watching.

Enola Holmes
Okay, I finally sat down and finished Enola Holmes (the first time I meant to keep watching but was distracted and hey it happens.) Love me some Millie BB, I think she did a great job being the hero in her own story. There was just enough wit and charm to make up for the … Continue reading Enola Holmes
Clickbait
This show is a little bit all over the place. True to form as a crime limited series, there's suspense, a crime, and an obvious suspect. The whole show you are trying to figure out who to believe. It was entertaining but I wouldn't watch it again. Rating: 1/5
Mare of Easttown
Episodes: 7 Kate Winslet does it again. There's character development, there's a murder, and there's Evan Peters. This is one that you cannot miss.

The Way Down: God, Greed, and the Cult of Gwen Shamblin
Episodes: 3 This wasn't as juicy as the trailer leads on but it is still great for how ridiculous it is. As far as cults go, this one isn't too out there. There aren't sacrifices or blood oaths, but there is an egotistical dictator whose influence leads to a death. As a Christian, it will … Continue reading The Way Down: God, Greed, and the Cult of Gwen Shamblin
Nine Perfect Strangers
Episodes: 8 The best advice would be to start watching this show without knowing anything about it. It's an all star cast going to a mysterious and luxurious spiritual retreat, complete with a crime. Do I have you intrigued? You can also see Nicole Kidman embrace her inner guru and (kinda terrible) Russian accent. Your … Continue reading Nine Perfect Strangers
What Happened to Brittany Murphy?
Warning: This episode involves violence, death, and drug use. Didn't know if I was going to make it through but this two parter was very good. It focuses on her whole career with jumping to after her death and the suspicious things her husband did. Since she died so long ago a lot of the … Continue reading What Happened to Brittany Murphy?
