Pick of the Week:

I saw the first Maze Runner and was completely bored, so I decided to skip the second movie, and I can safely say I have no interest in the final movie. The Commuter definitely looks like a fun movie to check out on Netflix on a Saturday night, or even a good zone out movie to watch at the cinema. It is another Liam Neeson being Liam Neeson movie and they can surprisingly be quite enjoyable so I expect this will be the same. The movie I am most looking forward to this week though is The Shape of Water, a movie that looks like a unique love story, combined with an interesting view of the world. Guillermo Del Toro is a fantastic director and it appears with The Shape of Water, he could win his first Oscar.

My Pick of the Week is The Shape of Water.

  1. Haha: always amazed how everyone experiences films in completely different ways. I loved the Mazerunner (and a good friend of mine absolutely hated it too), so there is no middle ground for this one. I also really want to see the Shape of Water. Del Toro hardly ever disappoints 😊😊

  2. I have seen Maze Runner and feels the same with you. It’s typical YA movies and not looking forward seeing it in the cinema. I like watching Guillermo del Toro movies. Looking forward to see the movie. Thank you for the recommendation👍🏻
