Next month is only a hair's breadth away, and you know what that means? Streaming platforms will be shuffling out some films to pave way for new ones. Still undecided what movie next to cross off your bucket watch list? Why don't you start with the sci-fi movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), starring Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet as a couple in a messy relationship who had each other's memory wiped clean after their agonizing breakup. Despite this, fate decreed they would meet again, unaware of their blissful entanglement in the past.

‘A River Runs Through It’ is a 1992 American drama film directed by Robert Redford based on the 1976 semi-autobiographical novella with the same title by Norman Maclean, adapted for the screen by Richard Friedenberg.

'3 Ninjas Kick Back,' directed by Charles T. Kanganis, was released in 1994. It's the follow-up to the film 3 Ninjas. Despite the fact that it was launched as the second installment of the franchise, Kick Back is the third installment of the 3 Ninjas series in terms of chronological order.

This is for the classic black-and-white movie lovers like me! And the good news is they are never in short supply. HBO Max added the drama romance film On the Waterfront (1954) to its back catalogue at the beginning of the month. Though 68 years since its debut, the movie's memory and unforgettable plot still lives on.

Everyone has that go-to comedy film they can’t stop re-watching all through their childhood to adulthood. Well, Bringing Down The House (2003) is mine, and I particularly watch it when bored or feeling blue. Steve Martin's silliness paired with Queen Latifah's don't care about nothing attitude, makes a dynamic explosion that cracks you up from the beginning to the end of the film.I also love the movie’s ensemble cast of favorite stars I grew to love including Eugene Levy, the late Betty White, Joan Plowright, Jean Smart, Missi Pyle, the adorable T. Jones, and Michael Rosenbaum, among others.

‘Rambo’ (also known as Rambo IV, John Rambo and Rambo: The Fight Continues) is a 2008 American action film directed by, written by and starring Sylvester Stallone.

Rambo: Last Blood was released in 2019 after it. Richard Crenna, who played Colonel Sam Trautman in the previous films and died in 2003, is honored in this film.

The second and, as of now, final season of The Twilight Zone was, once again, very spotty. But in case you run across it on Paramount Plus, you might want to check out select episodes that are worth watching. Here are four more recommended episodes (plus some extras if you happen to love the show).

Comedian Pamela Adlon’s comedy-drama vehicle for FX reaches the end of its fifth and final season on April 25th, 2022. Despite the first season’s involvement (and subsequent fallout) with Louis C.K., Better Things has received nothing but good reviews and awards for every episode, with the last three seasons all currently sitting at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes (seasons 3 and 4 are even certified fresh). Here’s everything you need to know to get into this great show.

We're counting the days to the month's end when streaming platforms will make a bunch of new releases, not only originals but also the ones that have been around for some time now.So, as I was catching up on films available on Hulu’s listing, I came by one of my all-time favorite movies starring Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise, Eyes Wide Shut. Though the classic drama film has gradually made it to my annual Christmas bucket list of movies, I occasionally re-indulge with a glass of wine on hand.Initially released in September 1999 in the U.K., Eyes Wide Shut is an erotic mystery psychological drama film with a hint of cult action. I never really know what genre to place this movie in. It's one of those absolutely bizarre films that you can't shake off, leaving you yearning to watch it over and over again.
