Better Late Than Never Vol. 6

It's that time of the year when all the highly anticipated movies start to arrive and I try to watch a couple I missed during the summer.

Green Book: A Road Trip With Aragorn and Boggs

The only roles I know from Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali are the ones based on best-selling book trilogies. For Mortensen its his well-known portrayal of Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings; before his Oscar win in Moonlight, I knew Ali as Boggs in Mockingjay: Part One and Two. There was also Witness (Mortensen's debut movie role) and Hidden Figures (the same year Ali was in Moonlight) but other than that, these were the only movies I've seen these actors in. Now the two star together in a buddy road trip with a surprising amount of heart and facts behind this unlikely friendship.

The Hate U Give Calls For Change

Amanda Stenberg as Starr Carter

I knew going into George Tillman Jr.'s adaptation of the Young Adult novel by Angie Thomas would be great but I didn't expect it to be phenomenal.

BlacKkKlansman Puts the K in A-OK

Blunt, provocative, shocking, funny, and timely. Spike Lee's BlacKkKlansman has it all and I loved every minute it.
