Speak No Evil is such a generic title, I didn’t realize it was an American remake of the Danish film of the same name. It took me twenty minutes to realize it was actively similar in theme but it was … Continue reading
(Un)lucky Sisters is an Argentinian Netflix comedy that lacks a lot of core things to make a comedy… namely laughs but also interesting characters. It’s about two sisters from other mothers whose estranged dad has died. They don’t know each … Continue reading
