Ugly Betty (Seasons 1-2)

⭐ 8.5/10 (Originally written by Jess) Don't ask me why.

⭐ 6.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) Visually beautiful. Besides that, meh.

A Boy Called Christmas

⭐ 10.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) Loved it.

Derry Girls (season 3)

⭐ 10.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) Second time watching it. Being alive at the same time as Derry Girls is one of God's greatest gifts.

Falling for Christmas

⭐ 2.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) Garbage.

Enola Holmes 2

⭐ 6.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) It was ok. I don't think I'm a fan of Millie?

Marcel The Shell With Shoes On

⭐ 7.5/10 (Originally written by Jess)

The Banshees of Inisherin

⭐ 8.5/10 (Originally written by Jess) Worth the watch

Blockbuster

⭐ 5.5/10 (Originally written by Jess) Sitcom. Not that good.

It Starts with Us - Collen Hoover

⭐ 8.5/10 (Originally written by Jess) Sequel to It Ends with Us

Sophie's Choice

⭐ 0.5/10 (Originally written by Jess) Shittiest movie ever. Apparently I can't give it zero?

Heartstopper

⭐ 10.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) I had to come back and write a review for this show, but I see Becky beat me to it. THIS SHOW WAS SO GOOD. Great LGBTQ+ coming of age show. It's just so wholesome and sweet and I love it so much. Please watch it.

The Departed

⭐ 9.5/10 (Originally written by Jess) FANTASTIC movie. This was my first time watching it. I came for Leo, and stayed because of the complex characters, and how phenomenal Jack Nicholson was. This movie isn't for the faint of heart, but even I liked it. The ending though... Caught me off guard :)

The Report

⭐ 9.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) Great movie!! It's about a guy, Adam Driver, who is trying to build a case condemning the CIA for their torture methods to extract information from suspected Al-Qaeda members. Based on a true story following 9/11. It's on Prime Video for anyone interested. It's a great movie that tells an amazing story and holds your attention every second.

Outlander - Season 1

⭐ 8.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) So like Susanne, I started this show for the Scottish scenery and accents. It is beautiful and I've never loved a theme song as much as this one. BUT, DAMN there is a lot of violence, sex and rape. I don't understand how a person can go through so much trauma and still be a functioning human being? Alas, it's not real life but a TV show, ye ken ;) Game of Thrones vibes, I will probably continue watching it because I love how much Jaime loves Claire.

Juliet, Naked

⭐ 8.5/10 (Originally written by Jess) I somehow came across this movie on Netflix and ended up loving it. It's based on the book. It's about a musician who is trying to fix his past mistakes and a woman annoyed with her music-obsessed boyfriend.

The Master

⭐ 7.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) This movie was weird.. I'll be honest I didn't really know what was going on, what the underlying message was suppose to be. It's about a war vet joining a cult and the relationship between him and the cult leader. I watched a couple of YouTube videos explaining the movie which made me like the movie more.

Promising Young Woman

⭐ 8.5/10 (Originally written by Jess) ALL MEN ARE TRASH. This movie will make you feel that way. It was really hard to watch, as all things are when they are too real. It's also just so infuriating because this happens so often, not only in the news, but to people we know, or maybe personally. The ending was 👌. This movie will stick with me for a long time.

The Flatshare

⭐ 9.0/10 (Originally written by Jess) This book is a great light read. It's a positively thrilling romance story. The characters are very different but easy to love.
