Black Box Movie Prime video

I was trying to watch this but ended up watching the Black Box movie about aliens and the planes. 

However this movie is about a man who got into a car accident and he has amnesia and he cannot remember who he is and forgets a lot of things and so he ends up going to doctors to try to get help.

 His daughter is also having to remind him of everything because he forgets and his wife died in the accident and his life is in shambles however he ends up using a machine called black box and they help him to relive memories and moments. 

It is a hypnotizing machine and once he enters the safe room he cannot go out of the room or she can't bring him back. From there he is given a watch to go through his memories and let me tell you they are all kinds of messed up and horrid and not really what happened. This series is a horror and psychological one so we never know what is going to happen next when he goes into the black box. 

This series is worth the watch.

**SPOILER**

Nolan was pronounced brain dead and then someone else came in and took over his body however we believe that Nolan wants his body back and is what is trying to take him out and why he can't remember because in every dream, there is someone or something that is discombobulated trying to choke him and knock him out and or unconscious.  It was because the doctor put her son somehow into Nolan's body and mind by downloading his data and putting the conscience in Nolan body. He has been dead for 2 years and Nolan has been brain dead  6 month prior after the accident and so she used Nolan.

Black Box| Flight 298 Movie 2026

 Black Box is a horror movie about how people are on a plane and some kind of outbreak happens. It starts with a severe thunderstorm that is not your normal storm. It has lights flashing in the sky and only certain people can see it. 

When they see it, they start bleeding and things happen including death, electronic malfunction and engulfing the plane in which is leads to aliens taking over the plane.

 The alien then takes over all that is living and the people become it even the dead ones. They then end up landing and everyone is infected when they get off the plane after they mimic real humans. 

This movie is a good one if you are into horror sci-fi type movies. I hope there is a part two because it pretty much ended with guy getting arrested and trying to explain to the military what happened. I watched this black box thinking it was the series so be mindful. This is the movie. 

War Machine Movie

 War Machine is a good movie about the exact title. An alien  war machine that crash landed to Earth. 

An Army soldier who served ended up going back in after his brother got killed because they were suppose to end up as Rangers and so he did not give up and ended up going back to get it. After training, him and other

 Army Soldiers were sent to complete a mission and to come back however, the plot twists when they thought the war machine was the mission and tried to blow it up. In retaliation they pretty much woke it up and half of the forces ended up dying.

 They believe that it was their commander making things harder on them but then they realized that this is not from them it is something much more worse.

 Now they are running around trying to survive and figure out either a way to kill it or get home. It causes electronic interference and scans the surroundings making it impossible to leave because it is hunting them down.  

This movie is action packed because you don't know what is going to happen next. This movie was good. 

Bad Thoughts | Netflix series

This show is hilariously funny with nothing but bad thoughts from start to finish. When my friend first told me about it, I didn’t expect much — but the moment we pressed play, I was rolling so hard I got confused about what was even happening. It’s one of those series where you’re laughing, shocked, and questioning your own sanity all at the same time.

The whole concept is built around the bad ideas people think about but never actually do. Every terrible impulse, every chaotic thought, every “what if I actually did that?” moment — it’s all in this series. And the wild part is how far they take it. Some scenes make you pause and wonder why you’re watching it, while others make you realize just how messy life would be if people acted on their worst ideas.

It’s hilarious because deep down, we all know if we ever followed through on our bad thoughts, we’d end up in so much trouble. This show takes that idea and runs with it, turning every bad decision into pure comedy and chaos. If you want something that’s funny, reckless, and completely off the rails, this Netflix series is exactly that.

This show is disturbing but if you need a pick me up, I highly recommend it!

From Series

This series is soo good! This series had me hooked since the day my friend told me about it. Once I started watching it, I couldn’t stop because every episode pulls you deeper into the mystery and makes you want answers that never come easy. This series is only on MGM+ and you can get it through Prime, which makes it super easy to watch if you already have Prime Video.

The whole vibe of the show feels like a twilight zone type of world where nothing makes sense, everything feels off, and you’re constantly trying to figure out what’s really going on.

People travel from all around and suddenly get stuck in this town and witness the same things happening over and over again. No matter what they try, they can’t leave, and every time they think they found a way out, something happens that pulls them right back in. The road they take loops them back in town. The woods is covered with something bad in it and the dead are leading them around.

This show is a Sci-fi one because you never know what is going to happen next. Every episode leaves you with more questions, more theories, and more confusion in the best way possible.

At night, there are vampiric creatures that come around that look like humans come from the woods and get in people’s heads. They talk sweet, act calm, and try to convince you to let them in with their smiles. The people in the town have to cover the windows and pretend they are not there because even one slip-up can be deadly. If they happen to go outside, they end up dying because the creatures rip them apart. It’s wild, creepy, and intense, and the way the show builds the tension makes you feel like you’re right there with them trying to survive. There are voices that are telling people which way to go along with people who are no longer living. There is also one man that can see things before it happens and he draws them in which he is always right.

There is also a man that is so sinister he knows everything and how to get into peoples minds and stir everything up.

This show is so good and worth the watch!

There is only going to be 5 seasons and the 5th one is coming soon and is the last one. Each season has 10 episodes that tells you what happened in the episode before to tie up loose ends.

Mackenzie Shirilla Documentaries

The documentary The Crash has reignited a massive public debate, and you can currently piece together the full story across three different platforms. 

On Netflix, it is titled The Crash; on ID, it’s an episode of Mean Girl Murders called "Under the Influence"; and A&E covers it in Killer Cases as "Murder on Wheels." 

Each production offers a different lens, though many viewers feel the Netflix version is highly edited, while the other two provide a much deeper look into the forensic evidence that secured her conviction.

To many, this is becoming the next "Gypsy Rose" case—a narrative where a young woman convicted of a violent crime enters the media cycle for fame. Even from what I seen of a screenshot Gypsy Rose Blanchard herself reportedly weighed in on social media, telling Mackenzie that she needs to "grow up and take accountability" instead of focusing on the spotlight. Much like the Blanchard case, this story is currently dominating TikTok. While the crash happened in 2022, it has only reached this level of "true crime stardom" now due to the Netflix release and the release of new prison interviews.

For those who haven't seen the trial documents, the details are chilling. On the morning of the crash, Mackenzie Shirilla was driving her Toyota Camry with her boyfriend, Dominic Russo, and their friend, Davion Flanagan. Data from the car’s "black box" revealed that she accelerated to 100 mph in the seconds before impact. Testimony and forensic evidence suggested a frantic struggle inside the car: the boys were reportedly trying to shift the car into park, but Mackenzie allegedly used her body to pin the gearshift so they could only reach neutral before she slammed it back into drive.

Investigators found no evidence of braking before she hit the brick building. Furthermore, reports surfaced that neither boy was wearing a seatbelt and that Davion was positioned on top of Dominic, suggesting they may have been desperately trying to stop her or exit the vehicle. The motive remains the biggest mystery—many speculate it was a premeditated murder-suicide attempt because she was "obsessed" with Dominic, but Mackenzie maintains she simply lost control.

Despite the brutality of the crime, she was sentenced to 15 years to life. Because her two murder sentences are running concurrently (at the same time), many believe she received a much lighter punishment than a typical defendant would have. As the documentaries continue to trend, the public remains divided on whether Mackenzie is a victim of a tragic accident or a calculated killer seeking a second act in the spotlight.

There is so much going on. If you want to read below are some links.

Charles, your lunch is ready! Dinner at the parkers | Tubi Movie

Let me just say, this is a Tubi movie starring, you guessed it Mrs Netta and Charles. It honestly is a true Tubi movie. 

I seen bits of pieces on Tiktok and could not believe it but here it is so I decided to watch it.

The acting is not the greatest and there seems to be no kind of script except Netta's grandma died and she took out a life insurance policy and no one knew about it. 

The granny is pretty much like a ventriloquist. If there was some kind of structure and a little bit more planned out and the acting was tightened up it would not of been as bad as it was. The acting needs to be a lot more than what it is.

 It feels like it is more of a YouTube video and a talking video instead of a movie. There is a lot of lack of emotions also and makes it feel as if it is throwed together or rushed.  

The "Ventriloquist" Granny and Technical Chaos The plot supposedly centers on a family matriarch passing away and leaving behind a secret life insurance policy, but the production value is the real story here. The "grandmother" character appears to be wearing a Spirit Halloween mask; her body moves, but her mouth remains frozen while a mismatched voice-over plays. It’s less Soul Food and more "ventriloquist horror."

The technical blunders don't stop there. Ring lights are visible in the window reflections, the audio fluctuates between whispers and ear-splitting peaks, and "smoke effects" for a burnt dinner look like they were added in a free smartphone app.

The part where Netta appears lacks so much especially when she is trying to figure out who the girl is taking care of her grandmother. 

In the beginning and end—scenes clearly shot much later to pad the runtime—the main character "Netta" (played by Joe Robinson) is wearing the exact same outfit but is missing the wig. In a final slip-up that truly defines the production, another character actually calls her "Joe" on camera, and they just... kept it in the final cut.

Inscripted-feeling dialogue and the romance that materializes out of nowhere, Dinner at the Parkers feels like a viral skit that accidentally became a feature film. It’s "trash" in the most entertaining way possible—a 1.3/10 that you have to see to believe, but you’ll definitely want your 51 minutes back afterward.

The sound effects are also eh. The screaming for excitement does not even match.

Review: Tyler Perry’s "Beauty in Black" on Netflix Season 1 and 2

If you’re looking for a series full of plot twists that will keep you on the edge of your seat, Beauty in Black is it. The story follows two women who find themselves trapped in a world of manipulation and danger.

The Plot

The narrative centers on two women essentially held hostage by a high-stakes pimp and a fixer named Jules. While the women are just trying to make a living, they find themselves stripped of their agency and constantly threatened with jail time. Jules uses false allegations to keep them under his thumb, ensuring they stay trapped in his cycle.

The Power of Jules

Jules is the ultimate "go-to" guy for the elite; he’s a master at getting people off the hook by paying off police and doing the "dirty work" no one else will touch. Because of his reach and what he’s capable of, he is widely feared. He treats the women's lives as collateral, forcing them to work for him indefinitely to pay off manufactured debts.

Why You Should Watch

While the show is undeniably good, it is heavy and a lot to take in emotionally. One of the highlights is the use of flashbacks, which give us a deep dive into Kimmie’s past. These scenes provide essential context on her history and how she formed her ride-or-die friendship with Rain.

There are two seasons of this on Netflix if this is your kind of show then I would watch it.

SEASON 2:

I finally started Season 2 of Beauty in Black, and honestly, it’s just not hitting the mark. The whole experience feels like a massive contradiction—the story is being rushed through "everywhere," yet the actual scenes and acting feel incredibly dragged out.

The acting is the biggest letdown; the expressions feel flat and unconvincing, making everything feel bland and hollow. Instead of genuine tension, we're just getting a constant cycle of cliffhangers and "edge-sitting" moments that are stretched across multiple episodes just to keep us watching. It feels like a lot of "here and there" without any real substance or direction. Very disappointing. I am only in season 4 out of 16 and to be honest some parts are catching my attention and other parts just seem dragged out. 

It shows each persons life in the same time frame and it just meshes everything together but it get to a point and it over ran everything. 

Episode 5 is not as bad but I know that it goes in and out. It is like every other episode is better than the other making it worth watching but not worth watching because it is dragged out.

Joe's College Road trip Netflix

 Let me first by saying we had many, many years of Madea. 

This however is the first actual Joe movie by himself as the main character and to me that is a lot. 

We all always wanted him to have his own movie and so we got it now. This movie was #1 on Netflix. To me this movie was way to much. This is not a kid friendly movie. 

There is sexual parts in it and the language is really foul. There is some black history in it and telling a story but to me there could of been a better presentation.

In this movie Joe's grandson pretty much does not know his heritage and wants to go to a different college however he gets persuaded to go to HBCU instead due to Joe showing him things and places that apart of history and the girl he ends up with. 

This movie came at the right time due to Black History Month and it tells how young black people do not know their history and not being told their heritage. 

There is a lot in this movie to be honest and some parts were good but others not so much. The end was also a cliff hanger so I believe there will be a second part. 

Cross season 2 SPOILER | prime video

 Season 2 is a twist. This one also has a killer that pretty much is freeing the women and kids that are captive and anyone that knew or has involvement in it.

 She also has other people working with her. Cross is having to go through solve each case and try to stop her. 

The FBI detective however did something illegal and it could potentially put her career at risk and it just keeps getting deeper and deeper and stranger and stranger. They are also using deep fake and spreading her face on a lot of things trying to pin her for different crimes. She eventually asks the crooked cop that was in jail for help and bonded him out and she is trying to get her name cleared using him.

****SPOILER****Cross is stuck in a love triangle with a lady that he use to be with and she pretty much friend zoned him and he does not want to believe it because he really likes her and she is with someone else but she still loved him and due to season one issues it kind of made it like she does not want to go through the same things she went through. She eventually tells him that she can no longer come to his house to watch his kids but they can come to her house because it hurts her seeing the memories and it hurts her. 

 His now partner likes him and he does not know it. She is playing it off a partner but they end up hooking up again. She evenutally turns her back on him and betrays him.

Crosses Partner from Season one finds out his mother in locked up after she requests him for interrogation. He was told that she was dead and it ruined a lot of bonds because they knew she was a live since they were kids. So she more than likely abandoned him. 

This season is actually pretty good with some plot twists. 

In each episode and season there are side stories. However season 2 episodes come out every Wednesday so I cannot binge watch it like I did season one.

Season 2 also ends March 18th and season 3 is coming soon and I am excited about that! This series is so good!

*Spoiler** They figure out who the serial killer is exactly why she is doing everything she is doing when the guy she loves decided to end it all in front of her and the detectives figured who she is due to tattoos on the guy. Crosses First Partner is trying to figure out why his mom was arrested and who killed the person to try to get her out of jail. Cross's second partner is putting pieces together of who is creating videos with her face covering  their face to make it look like shes the bad guy. Cross ends up in jail also.**

This series makes you just sit on the edge of the seat because the plot and story is so good!

Cross Season 1 & 2

Cross Season 2 just dropped TODAY, and if you don’t have Prime Video yet… this show is the reason to finally cave. Right now there are only 3 episodes out, which is the perfect amount to hook you before new episodes hit every Wednesday. This season has 8 episodes total, ending on March 18th, and trust me — the wait between episodes is going to hurt in the best way.

People keep saying Season 2 might be the end… but honestly, with how wild this story gets, who even knows. What is certain is that both seasons are absolutely binge‑worthy.

And with Valentine’s Day landing on Saturday, this is the perfect “stay in, get cozy, and binge something actually good” moment. Season 1 alone will have you glued to the screen.

Season 1 ends on a massive cliffhanger — the kind that makes you yell at your TV. The plot twists are nonstop. Characters you swear are villains turn out to be the ones you root for. Every episode flips your assumptions upside down.

Just so you know what you’re walking into:

• There’s some nudity

• There’s drug use

• There’s a gritty good‑cop/bad‑cop energy

• And the emotional stakes are high

Cross’s wife is murdered — along with several others — and every time he gets close to the truth, the story twists again. Every clue points somewhere new. Every character feels suspicious. It’s one of those shows where you think you’ve figured it out… and then the next scene proves you wrong.

The series is based on James Patterson’s books, but the adaptation? Phenomenal. When Season 1 came out, I binged it without even meaning to. The pacing is tight, the story is rich, and the show constantly makes you question what’s real and who you can trust.

If you’ve been waiting for a reason to get Prime Video…

This. Is. It.

This is the show people are going to be talking about. This is the one you don’t want spoiled. This is the one you’ll binge in a weekend and then immediately need someone to talk about it with.

Detective Cross (Prime Video)

 Detective Cross Season 2 is coming out in February and I cannot wait! I loved season one and it was just so good with so many plot twists. 

If you are into a detective, cop type show, I highly recommend this. This show is really good and based off a book.

There are a lot of plot twists in it that you would have not seen coming and the ones that you seen coming do not always end up that way. This show will have you on the edge of you seat from the events that happens.

It is a crime thriller, forensic and psychologist type of show. This show also has serial killers and basically Cross has to go through putting pieces of the puzzle together to solve who is the serial
killer and who killed his wife. He is also the person who is highly wanted because he is very good at his job.

I would not watch this show around kids due to there are drug usage and other things in this show including nudity and violence.

This show is only on Amazon Prime so you will have to join or take out a trail to watch it and to me it is worth the watch. I could not stop watching it when I first started. I was binge watching because the plot and the twist was just that good. There is only one Season so far that has 8 episodes in it

The Rip movie review

 

Let me just say there are so many suspected plots in this movie and it twists them all up. This movie starts off confusing but it gets better.

 In this movie there is a bad cop working with good cops and we all know how that goes.

They are trying to figure out who killed one of their members and a lot of things happen. However they go on a case and bad things starts happening around the house with mysterious phone calls and warnings.

 If you ever seen or read James Patterson Detective Cross then you pretty much know what happens but this one is much twisted. This movie is on Netflix if you want to watch it. I enjoyed it.
