number seven spectral three days ago we
conducted race in mid-city sometimes you
don’t want to have to think too much
when watching a movie you just want to
sit back relax and enjoy the show if
you’re scrolling through Netflix there
are a few movies more appropriate for
that mood than spectral with fantastic
special effects great action sequences
and charismatic actors there’s never a
dull moment military forces are at war
with an unknown and seemingly
supernatural anomaly and the mystery of
its origin is enough to keep your
interest but there’s more the battle
sequences also keep your eyes glued to
the screen making this military sci-fi
film a classic popcorn action flick no
limit to how far they can spread unless
we stop them number 6 very ready fibroma
regardless of your political leanings
you’d have trouble denying that
President Barack Obama led an
interesting life leading up to his
presidency the biopic berry only shows
us a snippet of that by giving us a
glimpse of his college years before he
became the self-assured man who would be
president every time I open up in class
it’s like I’m supposed to speak on
behalf of all black people he questions
his place in the world throughout the
film and is a keen observer on how race
can distinguish others while also paying
attention to the struggles people endure
while it does not touch on his future
presidency Barry still offers a
compelling look into the complex mind of
Barack Obama well I don’t I don’t see
you I beam then so what’s so special
about me
number five Imperial dreams where is the
coolest of prisons most unusual
punishments
born into it no this isn’t a documentary
about John boyega being cast in the
force awakens Imperial dreams actually
sees boyega played Bambi
a fresh out of jail gangster who’s
looking to reform his life and take care
of his son but of course that’s easier
said than done I’m asleep ok
pinky this genuine and gripping Netflix
original lets us see how hard it is to
adapt to the world after prison while
also showing us the struggles and perils
of living in the project dark affecting
and anchored by boyega stellar
performance
Bambi’s story shines a light on the
cyclical nature of criminality other
options out here number 4 Tallulah
people suck don’t disappoint you every
time with a spectacular Ellen Page
performance as the titular Tallulah or
Lu for short this dark comedy follows a
young woman who kidnaps a baby after
seeing how neglectful its mother is what
comes next is a rollercoaster of
emotions
Tallulah begins to care for someone
other than herself and although the hole
she digs for herself gets deeper and
deeper she never loses sight of the fact
that she thinks she did the right thing
I just I think it’s better to not be
needed she needs you even though it’s a
relatively serious situation and the
film has a way of making us question
some of our own life choices
Tallulah still features plenty of
lighthearted moments that make this
Netflix release a worthwhile watch you
sure you want some you need it
hydration is important looking at your
skin you need it number 3 hush
it’s hard to come up with something
original these days especially when it
comes to the horror thriller genre but
hush did it how by featuring a
protagonist who is completely deaf and
mute that protagonist is Maddie and
she’s being hunted at her remote home by
a psycho killer
doesn’t sound like it should last more
than a few minutes especially since it’s
mostly silent but plush is engaging and
grittily realistic thankfully avoiding
the horror tropes were all so sick of by
now but throwing in enough blood and
guts to keep fans satisfied maddie uses
her creativity as a writer to try and
survive this cat-and-mouse fight and it
makes for one tensed viewing experience
I can’t run I can’t hide and can’t wait
you go outside you’re dead
number two I don’t feel at home in this
world anymore why are you here
my house got robbed don’t let its long
title deter you this comedy crime
thriller is dark wild and touching in
all the right ways
the premise is straightforward enough a
woman finds her home burglarized and
since the police are no help she decides
to find the thieves herself but where it
goes from there is unexpected to say the
least with realistic I’ll be an oddball
characters at its core it’s absurd chain
of events keeps you shaking your head
and we mean that in a good way
with tons of thrills to be had in
captivating chemistry between leads
melanie lynskey and elijah wood this
Netflix release can accurately be
described as eccentric I feel like I’m
