Unconventional and super trippy, “The Wave” is an unexpected time travel comedy.
Time travel movies are, honestly, very hit and miss. Granted, there are exceptions (i.e., Terminator or Back to the Future), but time travel seems to get a bad rap, and for good reasons, because it could be considered Hollywood’s way… Read More ›

Sci-Fi Anthology “5 Galaxies” doesn’t quite break the atmosphere.
Can humanity survive? That’s the biggest and boldest question that 5 Galaxies asks us with giant text in the beginning of the movie. While that theme might be overused as a lot of other sci-fi movies (Blade Runner, Terminator etc.) play around with… Read More ›
Just keep telling yourself “Daniel Isn’t Real.”
