Fade to Black Cinema episodes

  • Crazy Rich Asians
    This was the movie Alicia and I were pretty excited about. Since I make her watch all the asian cinema movies and anime with me.  We saw this as something amazing to highlight a culture that isn't recognized on that level in the United states.  The Asian Black Panther with out the superhero outfit and the Marvel logo.  What a very entertaining movie.

  • BlacKKKlansman (Spike Lee)
    We have been Spike Lee fans for years but he has been in a serious bad movie slump for years (not just our opinion look at the ratings). So we were real cautious of this movie coming out and if it would be another Cliche Spike Lee movie. But when we read about the involvement of Jordan Peele producing this movie as well. We had to give it a try and especially being based on a true story. A black man tricking and joining the Klan.

  • The Equalizer I & II
    So you know - we did go see the first equalizer when it came out in the movies and i watched the TV series growing up. I barely recalled anything about it but remember this series and the night stalker series. We review the first movie by Denzel Washington then go into the newly released one. Full transparency, I didn't really like the first one.

  • Sorry to bother you (The Movie)
    This independent movie made by rapper Boots Riley from the rap group "The Coup". Was something  Alicia and I saw previews on it and couldn't wait to see.  This strange and controversial movie is a strong commentary on labor and social interactions in our society today. It takes a turn towards the end but we left the theater with a good feeling about this creative well acted movie that critics are really ranting about.​​​​​​​

  • Mission: Impossible – Fallout
    As big fans of the mission impossible series.  We always go see the maniacal Tom Cruise and what ridiculous stunts he will do in any of his movies.  Seeing the previews to this Alicia and I was sooo excited to see this movie just like it was a Marvel movie.  And with J.J Abrams being executive producer.  We knew it would be a big blockbuster

  • Killing Eve (codename Villanelle)

    We jumped into a brand new BBC America series called Killing Eve.  A cat and mouse investigator/Assassin series with a twist.  These two protagonist are women and the assassin is a psychopath.  This British triller is very unique and we discuss the nuances of the characters and series.   

    Eve's life as a spy is not adding up to what she had hoped it would be when she started. She is a bored, very smart, MI5 security officer who is very desk-bound. Villanelle is a very talented killer, mercurial in mood, who clings to the luxuries of her job. Eve and Villanelle go head to head in a fierce game of cat and mouse, each woman equally obsessed with the other as Eve is tasked with hunting down the psychopathic assassin. Sarah Barnett, BBCA president, says, " `Killing Eve' stands out in a sea of scripted stories as refreshingly entertaining and great fun.

  • Ant-Man and the Wasp (Marvel)
    You all ready know, Alicia and I are marvel fans (not fanatics, I'm board line) so we had to go see the sequel to the Ant-Man first movie.  We enjoyed it and thought it was worthy for a sequel with the anticipation of The Wasp being premiered in the sequel so here we are on the premier weekend.

  • Sicario : Day of the Soldado
    Alicia and I sit down with great anticipation to see the sequel to the critically acclaimed Sicario released 3 years ago from my favorite director Denis Villeneuve and the original screenplay writer by Taylor Sheridan.  This new version is very intense and a bit more stereotyped and US policy driven but something we do discuss minus the negative portrayals of the Mexican people.

  • Jurassic World (The Fallen Kingdom)
    Since Alicia is so much of a dinosaur fan, We had to go see Jurassic world on the release week.  This is the third iteration of the Jurassic series and the second part of the Jurassic world series.  Looking forward to another fun and exciting Jurassic movie we go in very excited.

  • Lemony Snicket's "A series of unfortunate events" season 2
    I sit down today with my Grandson Marsalis after we both watched the 2nd season of Lemony Snicket "A series of unfortunate events" series on Netflix. He was so excited by it , that I decided to bring this 9 year olds perspective of what he saw and go over the series 1 and 2 from a childs perspective. I enjoyed this interaction, Hope you will too.
