The Matchmaker 2023 Movie Review Trailer Poster Online

Tarek works as a computer scientist in an office. Due to the many overtime hours, his relationship with his wife has cooled. When a handsome intern starts and develops feelings for her, he decides to enroll in a resort where they will secretly bond, or so they promise. But once there, mysterious things begin to happen.


Several Aussies lent their not inconsiderable talents to The Matchmaker, but you wonder if it was worth it. This rather unbelievable romantic comedy stars Janeane Garofalo as Marcy Tizard, an assistant to a vapid American politician, Jay .O. Sanders, who is running for re-election and who needs the Irish vote in his Massachusetts constituency. So he sends Marcy, without any hotel reservations by the way, to the Irish town of Ballinagra, where his family apparently hails from.

Director: Abdulmohsen Aldhabaan
Stars: Husam Al Harthi, Reem Al Habib, Nour Alkhadra

 It is a miracle that Marcy finds lodgings, for Ballinagra is in the middle of a matchmaking festival, but she stays behind and begins a fruitless search for her chief ancestors, all the while finding herself, as an eligible single woman, a desirable addition to the matchmaking. festivities... With names like Mark Joffe directing and Louis Nowra co-writing, she expected a lot more from The Matchmaker. Aside from the plot's many improbabilities, this is a remarkably bland romantic comedy, filled with the most stereotypical Irish "characters" seen on screen since The Quiet Man, and what was charming and funny in 1953 doesn't seem so charming today. I couldn't figure out what the hell Marcy sees in Sean or why Milo OShea is overreacting as much as Dermot, the main matchmaker. Thank goodness for Ellery Ryan's beautiful panoramic photography.

A Minecraft Movie 2025 Movie Review Trailer Poster

 If you were to throw a bucket in Hollywood today, you could easily find a dozen video game adaptations in development, either as TV series or movies. They're all vying for the same thing: critical acclaim, huge box office revenue, or a sudden surge in streaming subscribers thanks to established fandoms. But it's a long shot: Will they become a "Borderlands" movie flop or a "Last of Us" hit? Next month, Legendary Entertainment, Warner Bros. Pictures, and Microsoft are going for box office gold with a different kind of game-to-movie adaptation: "A Minecraft Movie." Director: Jared Hess Writers: Chris Bowman, Hubbel Palmer, Neil Widener Stars: Jennifer Coolidge, Jason Momoa, Emma Myers For the uninitiated, Microsoft-owned "Minecraft" is a sandbox game that immerses players in the Overworld, a whimsical dimension made up of blocky, box-like voxels.

The Acolyte 2024 Tv Series Review Trailer Poster

 There are three main types of Star Wars stories. There's the kind where you write whatever you want and call it Star Wars, common in the many novels published in the 1990s. There's the kind where you recycle existing Star Wars stories and make them familiar; this has been the primary way of doing things at Disney. But finally, there are the stories that enthusiastically use Star Wars as a setting to create something new. There have been several novels that fit that profile, as did the first season of Andor, and now, four episodes in, it looks like the new Star Wars series The Acolyte, set a century before the movies, also fits the bill. in that category. . The Acolyte centers on a pair of twins, Osha and Mae (both played by Amandla Stenberg). The girls were raised by an unaffiliated coven of Force users, but despite living outside the Republic, the Jedi, including Carrie-Ann Moss's Indara, stuck their noses into these women's affairs, leading to the disaster. As a resu...
