New Chilling Marvel Film: Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness

New Chilling Marvel Film: Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness

Legendary horror film director, Sam Raimi (Evil Dead) brings this comic book blockbuster to the big screen. This sequel is not your typical MCU movie, as it is full of fright and definitely on the darker side. As a huge horror film enthusiast, I was ecstatic to see a little gore and creepiness in a Marvel film.

This new film also introduces Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez, a fan favorite from the Marvel comic universe. Drew and I love her!

In the new film, Wanda no longer inhabits Westview, however, she continuously is visited by her sons nightly in her dreams. Every morning, she wakes up to her worst nightmare. The question is, what is this distraught mother willing to do for her family? (or not so real family)

Raimi’s signature style, kinetic camera work, and his dark and witty humor shines through in this unique MCU film. His work rarely disappoints, and this film is worth the spine chills.

Maleficent: Mistress of Evil Movie Review

We often go to cheesy kid movies with our kids out of love for them. We pretend to understand everything they talk about, and to love everything they remotely care about because… that’s the motherly thing to do. Take Assassin’s Creed for example. Do I love Cal Lynch? Uh, well, which one was that again? But, If you ask my son what I think about Assassins Creed? He’ll say, “I love it.” That’s just what we do as parents. We adore our dang kids, and want to find things in common with them. But I have found that my son and I actually DO have something in common. We both enjoy movies! Earlier this month, we got a sneak peek of MALEFICENT: MISTRESS OF EVIL.

My son loves Syfi, action, and comedy flicks. I love dramas, romcoms, and adventure films. Finding movies that bond our two loves, can be tricky. Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, however, left us both on the edge of our seats, eager to see what was going to happen next. The movie itself sent many powerful messages. This twisted fantasy was everything I hoped for (and more).

Synopsis:

A formidable queen causes a rift between Maleficent and Princess Aurora. Together, they must face new allies and enemies in a bid to protect the magical lands which they share. In this movie, you will experience bold, cinematic visuals. My son pointed out that the women in the film were “fearless” and “unique,” just how a woman should be portrayed.

The mythology that goes along with the cast’s spectacular performance, fits into the list of Disney Classics perfectly. Angelina Jolie goes above and beyond to not only fit the physical qualities of Maleficent, but she also accurately portrays the emotional qualities of this complicated witch. Through the course of this film, the audience will learn the importance of confidence and individuality. As a 43-year-old woman, I felt unbelievably empowered by the portrayal of all the women in this film. My son witnessing characters like Maleficent, is extremely important to me. Quite frankly, it’s important for the development of all young boys. This film has no damsel in distress, has no woman dependent on a man, and that is what I like and expect to see more of in the future movie world.

BRAVO Disney! This movie is for all the women, and girls ready to be portrayed as the strong heroes that they are. Maleficent: Mistress of evil is now on my list of favorites. I’m so glad I got to watch it with my little guy!

Disney fans… This movie is a MUST-SEE!
