Movie Review: Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

  There are a lot of arguments out there that Marvel and the Marvel Cinematic Universe is a machine just churning out movies. That their movies are just a product of an assembly line and that they all look and feel the same. There are movies in this 28-movie, four-show cinematic universe that fit this, but it isn’t the case for all of them. My favorite movies in the MCU are the movies that have…

2022 NFL Draft – Movie Edition

Kevflix has always been a website about movies, with the occasional dabble into some TV. But my first love before getting into writing about movies was sports and it is something I am still very passionate about. Since I can remember, I’ve always loved sports.  I have my favorites to play and watch, but I don’t discriminate against any sport.  Whether something as popular as basketball or a sport so random it might not even…

Movie Review: The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

Movie Review: The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

  The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, or Massive Talent as the advertisements now call it, and what I will be calling it throughout this review because The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent is an obnoxiously long title, is a movie that wants to be a love letter to Oscar-winning actor Nicolas Cage. The Oscar-winning actor was at one time of the biggest movie stars in the world, starring in blockbuster box office hits and…

Movie Review: Everything Everywhere All at Once

    As of writing this review, it has been over a week since I saw Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert’s, a.k.a the Daniels, latest film Everything Everywhere All At Once. It has taken me a while to write this review because it is hard to put in the words what the Daniels have created. Everything Everywhere All At Once is one of the most original and awe-inspiring movies I’ve seen in years. It is…

2022 Oscars: The Good, The Bad, The Worse, and The Slap

The 2022 Academy Awards took place last night and to put it bluntly, it was an absolute shit-show. From cutting categories and terribly editing them into the show, the flat and boring musical numbers, the useless hosts, and Will Smith, this was one of the most chaotic and messy Oscars I have ever seen. But, despite how bad the show was overall, there were still some nice moments throughout the show. Here is my recap…
