Worth the Wait: Movie Review

Tonally-wrong dramedy about boring relationships.

Worth the Wait is a multi-relationship dramedy with intertwining stories. All of the main characters are Asian-American with relationship problems. It’s great representation as there are no stereotypes to be found. There are also no interesting characters to be found, and to make it worse, the better actors have awful characters including some typecasting. The film also struggles with juggling between comedy and drama – attempts at silly comedy back-to-back with grief-stricken scenes of tragedy. Relationship dramedies are not supposed to be this hard to watch.		2025 Directed by: Tom Lin Screenplay by: Maggie Hartmans, Dan Mark, Rachel Tan Starring: Lana Condor, Ross Butler

Love in the Clouds: Movie Review

Stupid, soulless, boring and illogical.

The star of Hallmark movies is almost always the romance, when a lovely relationship develops between two mature and thoughtful adults. But when the rest of the movie is a soulless, bland, boring, illogical, immoral, and a completely thoughtless adventure in nonsense, it’s impossible to get swept up by the love between a reporter and a hot air balloon pilot.		2025 Directed by: Larry A.

Greek Mothers Never Die: Movie Review

A comedy about Greek mothers and daughters and their ghosts.

Greek Mothers Never Die is an indie rom com, turned comedy, turned fantasy, turned drama about grief and tragedy, turned musical. Or something like that, with a few coming-of-age themes thrown in for good measure. It’s mostly well produced indie production that knows the story it wants to tell but at the same time needs way too many ideas to tell that story. A story about Greek mothers and daughters and boyfriends and ghosts.		2025 Directed by: Rachel Suissa Screenplay by: Rachel Suissa Starring: Abby Miner, Simon Rérolle, and Rachel Suissa
