I already decided a long time ago that I am not going to write reviews of movies I know in advance I’m going to love. What’s the point? I can’t write an objective review if I spend a thousand words praising it like it’s the end of the world. Continue reading
I love it when films don’t take themselves too seriously. It allows them to fool around, to make jokes at their own expense, and to wink at us, the audience, so that we become part of the game. And that is exactly what happens with Baywatch, the movie. Continue reading
