As someone who’s seen more than 25–50 movies this year across both streaming platforms and theatrical experiences, it takes something truly special to stand out. And yet, F1 doesn’t just stand out it blazes past the competition. This is not just another racing movie. This is cinematic perfection on wheels.

From the very first frame to the roaring finish line, F1 captures something electric. The film immerses you in its pulse-pounding racing sequences with stunning sound design and a musical score that’s both energetic and emotionally grounded. Every tire screech, every gear shift, every crowd cheer it hits your senses like you’re in the driver’s seat. And in IMAX? It’s nothing short of transcendental. It’s one of the most intense and immersive film experiences I’ve ever had in a theater.

There’s something remarkable about how this film balances adrenaline and heart. Whether you're a die-hard motorsports fan or someone just looking for a thrilling night out, F1 delivers. It doesn’t slow down, it doesn’t let up it races forward with confidence, style, and a surprising amount of soul.

The performances are stellar, the cinematography is sleek, and that third act? Let’s just say there’s a subtle moment that hints at a potential sequel. Whether or not that comes to fruition, this film stands confidently on its own as a complete and satisfying story.

I genuinely loved this film it’s one of my favorite movies of the year, and honestly, one of my favorite films of the 2020s. That’s no exaggeration. It’s the kind of movie that makes you want to relive the experience again and again and I plan to. I’ll be picking up the physical copy the moment it drops because F1 is just that kind of movie.

A 10 out of 10. Five out of five stars. F1 is cinematic fuel injected straight into the heart.

Highly recommended. Don’t miss it.

Back in 2009, James Cameron dropped a cinematic bombshell with Avatar, a film that not only defined a generation of moviegoers but reshaped what was possible in digital filmmaking. It was a phenomenon, a box office juggernaut, and a cultural touchstone, remembered for its groundbreaking 3D technology, lush alien environments, and the richly imagined world of Pandora. Fast forward over a decade, and Avatar: The Way of Water finally hit theaters not just as a sequel, but as a continuation of a legacy many weren’t sure could be matched. And yet, after finally sitting down and watching this epic sequel from start to finish in April 2025, I can say with zero hesitation that The Way of Water is a masterpiece in its own right a visual and emotional triumph that not only meets expectations, but exceeds them in ways that I didn’t even anticipate. This film is beautiful, heartfelt, intense, and absolutely mesmerizing. If the first film was about seeing the wonder of Pandora for the first time, T...

Introduction: A Game That Became More Than Just a Game Originally typed in March 2022 Updated in March, April, and June 2025 Written by Carson Kelly Final Version Published on June 9, 2025 Techland’s Dying Light 2 is more than just a sequel to one of the most beloved open-world zombie games; it’s a personal journey, a game that holds deep meaning for me beyond its mechanics and narrative. It’s one of my all-time favorite games and certainly one of my most-played titles of the current generation. As of writing this, I’ve clocked in nearly 1,000 hours in Dying Light 2 , completing multiple playthroughs across different characters, difficulties, and New Game Plus runs.

                          AVATAR (2009)  A Review by Carson J. Kelly                                Watched: April 12–13, 2025 | Written: April 13, 2025 There are rare moments in life when a film doesn’t just entertain—it immerses, transforms, and awakens something deeper within you. James Cameron’s Avatar (2009) is one of those rare cinematic experiences. Though I’m watching it for the first time well over a decade after its release—starting on the evening of April 12, 2025, and finishing around 1 AM the next day I can say without hesitation that it was worth the wait. Every single second. I hit play at 9:10 PM, unsure of what to expect beyond the iconic visuals I had glimpsed for years. But what unfolded was far beyond anything I imagined. This wasn’t just a movie; it was a world, a philosophy, and a deeply emotional journey. At its...
