Many of us have been occupied with school work lately, haven't we? We don't even have much free time to do things that we want and have fun (unless you are one of those people who procrastinate ;) ). And when we do have free time, how do we usually spend it? I'm sure most of us just scroll through...

Christopher Robin? Pooh?
I know there's gonna be a lot of disagreement with my opinion, but I really found this movie a letdown - boring and downright gray.

The film is a German dramatic comedy that revolves around Hitler, who has been somehow transported from his bunker to modern day Berlin.

Why Sierra Burgess is a Loser
So I finally got around to watching Sierra Burgess is a Loser and I can honestly say that it met my expectations, because I was expecting it to be, well, bad. It was a huge disappointment, because this movie could have been so much better.
Still Swooning Over Boys Over Flowers? Same.
Boys Over Flowers is a remake of the original Japanese version (with a different name), but with the same concept. This high school coming of age Korean drama has been recognized as one of the few dramas that boosted the Korean Drama Wave to gain momentum globally. This then makes it one of the most famous in the k-drama world,...
