Synopsis
In the summer of 1941, differences and problems between United States and Japan intensified, and diplomacy intervened to solve the problems between the two countries, but American intelligence was able to monitor messages to the Japanese side proving that they were evasive, and that there was a possible attack, but where? And when? No one knows. Japan was stimulated, but the negligence on the American side was enough for those in charge of the naval base (Pearl Harbor in Hawaii) to be surprised on Sunday morning in December 1941 by the attack of the Japanese weather weapon on the base, destroying its contents The ships of the American fleet, and the password for the attack of the Japanese side was (Tora Tora Tora) to be also the password for the entry of the American side with all its weight in the midst of World War II to favor the side of the Allies.

Deep Cover (2025)
Deep Cover (2025), directed by Tom Kingsley and now streaming on Prime Video, blends action, crime, and comedy in a distinctly British package. The premise? Three aspiring actors—Kat (Bryce Dallas Howard), Marlon (Orlando Bloom), and Hugh (Nick Mohammed)—are recruited for police undercover work, using their improv skills to infiltrate London's criminal underworld.
What Works
Entertaining ensemble: Bryce Dallas Howard brings charm and energy as the improv teacher. Orlando Bloom shines with comedic timing, and Nick Mohammed's lovable awkwardness adds levity and heart.
Sharp writing & pacing: Critics commend the witty script and brisk pace—Decider calls it "well‑paced, amusing escapism," while Tom’s Guide notes its 95% Rotten Tomatoes approval and satisfying blend of humor and deft action.
Genre fusion: The film enjoys a reputation as a "finely‑tuned action‑comedy" infused with just enough crime‑drama edge to keep stakes high while laughter flows.
What Doesn’t
Surface-level depth: Some critics feel the characters aren’t fully fleshed out. Its comedic, lightweight tone means it doesn’t dive deep into emotional complexity.
Conventional arc: Though entertaining, the film doesn't break new ground beyond its core premise—improv actors caught in real criminal heat.
Final Take
Deep Cover is a breezy, crowd-pleasing action-comedy elevated by its cast’s dynamics and clever premise. If you enjoy shows like Barry or crime comedies with quirky edges, it’s worth your time. It won’t leave a lasting mark—but for a light, fun watch with occasional surprises, it hits the spot.
Heart Eyes (2025)
"Heart Eyes," directed by Josh Ruben, is a 2025 film that uniquely blends the romantic comedy and slasher horror genres. The narrative follows Ally (Olivia Holt) and Jay (Mason Gooding), coworkers who, after a chance meeting, find themselves targeted by the Heart Eyes Killer—a masked assailant who preys on couples each Valentine's Day.
Critics have offered mixed to positive reviews. RogerEbert describes the film as "a raving good time," noting its appeal to fans seeking both warmth and horror. Similarly, Decider appreciates its self-aware satire, likening it to the "Scream" series, and recommends it for those seeking light-hearted escapism. However, The Guardian criticizes the film as an "awkward cross" between romantic comedy and horror, suggesting it fails to excel in either genre.
Audience reactions reflect this divide. On Reddit, viewers praise the film's kills, engaging antagonist, and strong performances from Holt and Gooding, though some point out inconsistencies in humor and supporting characters. Rotten Tomatoes features an audience consensus highlighting the film as a "killer mashup" of romance, horror, and comedy, acknowledging a less compelling plot but recognizing its entertainment value.
In summary, "Heart Eyes" offers a novel cinematic experience by merging slasher horror with romantic comedy. While it may not fully satisfy purists of either genre, it provides an entertaining ride for viewers open to a genre-blending narrative.

Predator: Killer of Killers (2025)
Predator: Killer of Killers (2025), directed by Dan Trachtenberg and Joshua Wassung, is an animated anthology that broadens the Predator mythos through three intense, culturally rooted encounters across time: a Viking queen in 841 CE, samurai-era Japan, and a U.S. Navy pilot in 1942. Rather than focusing on a single storyline, it stitches these vignettes into a cohesive arc, building to a climactic showdown on the Predator home world.
Highlights
Stylish, painterly animation – Critics across the board praise its Arcane-inspired visuals and inventive Yautja tech design, calling it “sharp” and “painterly”. The animation adds identity and flair to each era.
Tight pacing and thrilling set-pieces – At around 90 minutes, the film avoids fat while delivering brisk action in each chapter. The narrative coalesces smoothly, earning it a “stream-it” recommendation.
Expanded lore with clever twists – Fans love the anthology format and the surprise cryostasis twist that unites characters across eras. It also hints at future crossover potential with the Alien universe.
Areas of Concern
Animation sometimes lacks ‘spark’ – While many hail the visuals, some critics find them slick but emotionally flat, speculating AI may have aided production.
Not as emotionally deep as live-action – The anthology’s briskness sometimes trades emotional resonance for spectacle, meaning characters don’t always have time to breathe.
🎙 Voice Cast
The talented voice ensemble includes Lindsay LaVanchy (Ursa), Louis Ozawa (Kenji & Kiyoshi), Rick González (Johnny Torres), and Michael Biehn (Vandy), delivering performances described as “enhancing the engaging storytelling”.
📝 Final Verdict
Predator: Killer of Killers succeeds as an ambitious, visually arresting, and lore-rich installment in the Predator universe. Its anthology format offers fresh settings and perspectives, with satisfying action and creative payoff for franchise fans. While the animation may miss some emotional nuance, and its brevity sacrifices depth, it's a compelling appetizer for the upcoming Predator: Badlands and a worthy stand-alone adventure.
