But everything changes when she makes the mistake of falling for Aaron Samuels, the ex-boyfriend of alpha Plastic Regina George. Review Before going into this film, I had only watched the teaser trailer and that was it. I was oblivious to the fact that this was going to be a musical adaptation of the classic film 'Mean Girls' (2004). I came to the realisation only 2 minutes into the film which already opened with its first musical score. I assumed it was going to be a direct sequel but instead I was shown a recreation of the original film with music. The film, on its own, can be deemed as comedic; even for those who have not seen Mean Girls before. However, a lot of the iconic lines fell flat; the original cast did satire a lot better, especially when woke culture, 20 years ago, wa...

Planet of the Apes returns to the big screen with the film 'Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes'. It becomes apparent that the franchise is heading towards a sequel trilogy after the commercial success of the reboot series. The film was expected to be as successful as Andy Serkis' Apes films and it sure delivers - both visually and narratively. It may not be a strong comeback to the Caesar trilogy however the film manages to portray its characters in the same way and the storyline flows through. Andy Serkis' performance as the character 'Caesar' was on an Academy Award level of acting, that newcomer Owen Teague's portrayal of new lead protagonist 'Noa' was not expected to do any better. You could not name anyone else who could portray Caesar or any other ape better than Andy Serkis. Serkis' performance as Caesar was so perfect that he raised the bar too high for newcomers to surpass and this may come as a warning to newcomers that it ma...
