'Dom' Amazon Prime Video Review: Stream It Or Skip It?

Image
  A gritty narrative based on a true story. One of the most exciting shows currently on the Amazon Prime Video roster is a little-known Brazilian gem,  Dom . Based on a true story,  Dom  tells the story of a cop who has to bring a stop to one of Rio de Janeiro’s most dreaded drug traffickers, who also happens to be his son. Even though both father and son grew up in Rio, the story shows how the city affects people who choose different paths despite being in a similar environment. The show spans across two timelines - one showing the father, Victor Dantas, in his teenage years, and the other showing the rise of his son, Pedro, his struggle with cocaine as a kid, and his rise within the gang scene in Rio during his late teens and early twenties. Although the show has enough action and thrill to hook you right in from the get go, it also touches upon a deeper layer - that of a complicated and yet, endearing father-son relationship, which gives a wide universal appeal.

Is This "Valak" Thing Real?

The hype for   The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It   is building, and horror fans are using these last few days before  The Conjuring 3   comes to theaters and HBO Max to catch up on the   other seven films   in the  Conjuring   movie-verse. That includes  The Nun , the 2018 spin-off film that serves as a prequel to  The Conjuring 2.  You may recall that in  The Conjuring 2,  actor Bonnie Aarons plays the film’s antagonist: A demon nun channeling the spirit of the evil Valak.  The Nun  serves as an origin story of sorts—a non-demon nun named Sister Irene (Taissa Farmiga) and a priest named Father Burke (Demián Bichir) travel to investigate a monastery in 1952 Romania. Apparently, some pretty creepy stuff has been happening at this monastery—like nuns being attacked by invisible, evil spirits. Sister Irene and Father Burke eventually learn that the abbey was built on a rift intended to seal out the evil demon V...

Top 10 Best Disney Movies of All Time

Image
I am a grown man now, but I have never stopped loving Disney movies. Whether it’s an animated film or a live-action adventure, I can’t help but sit down and thoroughly enjoy the whole thing. Now that I have a Disney+ subscription , I have found myself going back and enjoying some of my childhood favorites and even some newer films. There’s never a wrong time to watch some of the best Disney movies of all time you know. Everyone’s ranked list of Disney films is going to be different, and now that the media giant has acquired Star Wars and Marvel , there is an overwhelming amount of good movies to choose from. For my list, however, I’m only focusing on films that made me feel that classic Disney magic. 1. Aladdin (1992) I was born in the 90s, so naturally,  Aladdin  is number 1 on my list of Disney movies. While it can be argued that the only reason this movie was only so good because Robin Williams did a fantastic job as Genie, no argument will ever get me to remove this anima...
