Movies

26. Mulan (October 4) -- 5 stars

Still the best Disney movie of all time. Of all time!! 5 stars

27. Kingsman: The Secret Service (October 5) -- 3 stars

I...can't believe in all that I've heard about this movie nobody mentioned the plot is something out of Breitbart's most deranged playbook.

Like it was entertaining but damn, that was one WEIRD right wing fantasy. 3 stars

28. Veer Zaara (October 20) -- 4.5 stars

Dang y'all, that is some HIGH level romance, melted my overly chill heart. 4.5 stars

29. Queen (October 22) -- 5 stars

A perfect beautiful joyous 2 hour experience of watching Rani come into herself. All Bollywood should take tips. 5 stars

30. A Silent Voice (October 23) -- 3 stars

Good adaptation; had both the strengths and weaknesses of the original (I still hunger for more Shoko POV). 3 stars

31. Doctor Strange (October 31) -- 1.5 stars

I can't believe how boring that was...so grateful I didn't waste money seeing it in theatres...so blessed...

1.5 stars
