Green Eggs and Ham (2019–2022)

Amazing animation and funny!

[9/10 · 9 November 2019]

My kid is glued to this show. It's actually beautifully animated and pretty funny for adults as well. I love the storyline and voice acting.

Smallfoot (2018)

Awesome songs and interesting message.

[8/10 · 2 January 2019]

I've read a lot of reviews from people who are mad at the message of this movie. They don't like how the movie's concept is to question everything, especially religion. I, on the other hand, think it's a healthy message. Questioning your religion, beliefs, why are things the way they are, is normal and part of the human experience. Don't give a movie a bad review because you don't want to deal with your child now questioning their lifestyle.

In regards to the movie itself, it had some amazing musical numbers. The animation was great, though the characters lacked a bit of depth and there were some slow parts in the movie.

All in all, it's a great movie to watch and I feel it definitely deserves a higher rating.

American Circumcision (2017)

Very biased documentary

[2/10 · 20 December 2018]

I am one who is not in favour for circumcision, however, I found this documentary to be very biased. If you're going to cover a topic, you should at least explore both sides of the story. I don't believe circumcision is necessary at all, but it should still be explored as to how most circumcised men feel about the issue. I have spoken to many cicumcised men and many of them don't care that they were circumcised and actually, many of them were happy. As terrible as it sounds, many men are facing a social stigma for having an uncircumcised penis. I have hear terrible stories of men being made fun of by women for being uncircumcised. I have actually spoken to women who said they don't like uncircumsied penises. The social stigma is still alive in North America and this issue should absolutely be explored. We should be speaking to men who have chosen to circumcise and men who were angry that their parents who didn't circumcise them when they were a baby. This issue is not black and white, it is still very grey and this documentary does not cover that at all. The movie makes it feel like it is 100% black and white.

Also, a lot of the facts were wrong as well. The number of cucumcisons happening within the first few days of birth is steadily decreasing and it's much more popular and recommended when the infant is 3 months. They numb the area completely and treat the pain with Advil. Doctors not waiting the full 5 mins for the numbing cream to work is false, many doctors wait. This documentary is pushing fear tactics and that is not proper journalism.
