In an impressive directorial debut, Kane Parsons is able to deliver a memorable dread inducing sci-fi horror film. Even if certain parts of it didn’t particularly land well. The bookshop has been updated. Go check out my pick. https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan
Despite some blemishes, I Love Boosters is a hilarious adventure comedy film that proves Boots Riley is still a unique voice in an increasingly sterile American movie system. It deserves to be seen on the big screen in a packed theater. The bookshop has been updated with Madeline Cash's Lost Lambs. One of the best novels I've read all year.
I discuss David Frankel's Devil Wears Prada 2 and David Lowery's Mother Mary. One is a fine film that banks on the references of its predecessor. The other is one of the most bold, ambitious films of the year. Go listen! https://www.instagran.com/ajaythakkar_. https://www.letterboxd.com/shyamaween. The bookshop will be updated next week. Haven't been able to read recently lol
Lee Cronin's The Mummy borrows from several of its influences without any regard for its characters, plot, or story. Making it one of the worst films of the year. The bookshop has been updated with Shusaku Endo's The Sea and Poison. https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan
the bookshop has been updated with Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian. Check our bookshop. https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan
The 2026 Academy Awards was a near 4 hour long award show that had plenty of twist and turns. I wouldn't recommend re-watching it in its entirety. book recommendation: Salman Rushdie - Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder https://bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan
Despite a stellar cast and some memorable performances, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride! is a tediously dull film that misses on the horror and the humor, but will eventually develop a cult following in the coming years. Book Recommendation: Jay McInerney - Bright Lights, Big City https://bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan
With just the right amount of campiness and adventure, How to Make a Killing is a fun dispensable film that will entertain you throughout its runtime. Book Recommendation: Nick Cave - The Death of Bunny Munro https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan
