By zarinamacha August 2, 2018October 19, 2020
2018 / Books Films Music TV / Film Reviews

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen the film Mean Girls. It’s one of those movies I can watch over and over again and never tire of; the more I watch it the more I love it. Recently I watched it and then watched it again two days […]

Reviewing Black Panther

By zarinamacha April 9, 2018December 16, 2020
2018 / Books Films Music TV / Film Reviews

I’ve seen Black Panther twice at the cinema since it came out and loved it. I thought the second time it was even better. Here’s my take on it. Wakanda Forever. Will contain spoilers. Plot I found the story to be super engaging. Black Panther is about an African country […]
