First Reaction: #28YearsLaterTheBoneTemple revisits the madness and dread of the original, with humans feeling far more dangerous than the infected. Ralph Fiennes is exceptional, his bromance unexpectedly adorable. A strong zombie sequel that feels part Eden Lake, part Awakenings. Go see it!

First Reaction: #HIM is visually striking and cryptic, a Devil’s Advocate meets Training Day thriller set in the world of football. Marlon Wayans is intense and calculated. It’s worth a second watch to catch the subtle details and unpack its look at football culture.#HIMMovie

Tense, emotional, and straight-up gripping. The Long Walk blends Stand By Me with Hunger Games vibes. David Jonsson is phenomenal. Don’t miss it this weekend. Read the full Taji Mag review: tajimag.com/the-long-wal...

There's dialogue between David Jonsson and Cooper Hoffman in #TheLongWalk  that made me instantly think of Creed and Rocky. See it for yourself September 12!

The perfect couple? Not quite. The Roses, a modern take on marital warfare. It's funny, heartbreaking, and shows how easily a perfect life can turn into a battlefield. Check out the review in the link. tajimag.com/the-roses/

#TheLongWalk  is an emotional gut-punch. Terrifying and tense, with a cast that makes every loss hurt. David Jonsson is a standout and continues to show he’s a rising star. I'm surprised it gave me the feels and a little cringe. It's like Stand By Me meets The Hunger Games.

Weapons is a rollercoaster of horror, jump scares, terrifying imagery, dark humor, and twisted tension. Zach Cregger continues to revive horror in bold, unexpected ways. Think an R-rated R.L. Stine mashed with It and 28 Days Later.Highly recommend.

After years of disappointing outings, #FantasticFour: First Steps gives Marvel’s First Family the reboot they deserve. With strong performances, retro sci-fi vibes, and plenty of heart, this film feels like a fresh start for the team.

#Superman    First reaction: The action was great, and it's awesome seeing so many DC characters on screen! Superman was ok, but Lex shined & Mr. Terrific was perfectly handled. Krypto was the biggest source of fun! It's funny, relatable, and political. Solid watch.

Check out my Thunderbolts review for GQ South Africa, where I break down why this team of misfits actually works.

#marvel #thunderbolts #ThunderboltsMovie #mcu

#Thunderbolts* is funny, chaotic, and a little redeeming. The Void’s quiet destruction? Unnerving.
David Harbour as Red Guardian is a standout, messy, lovable chaos.
Flawed? Yes. But a support group of soul-searching heroes? Weirdly heartfelt.

#TheAccountant2 delivers—action, emotion, humor, and heart all in one. Christian continues to evolve as a character: still a beast in combat, but more emotionally layered than ever. His dynamic with his brother, his awkward but honest attempts at connection. A sequel done right.

Miles Canton, Jayme Lawson, and Jack O’Connell talk about how music shaped their roles in Sinners —from gospel roots to blues soul and beyond.

Rami Malek is brilliant and brutal in #TheAmateur— a revenge thriller, where intellect hits harder than fists. Think Bourne meets Mr. Glass. Full review: tajimag.com/the-amateur-...

#SinnersMovie #gq

#SinnersMovie is a pulse-pounding horror film. Vampires feeding on sin & insecurity. Blues, religion, redemption, & social commentary all collide. Think From Dusk Till Dawn x 28 Days Later x Demon Knight. See it in IMAX for the full experience!

#MagazineDreams isn’t an easy watch nor should it be. Jonathan Majors delivers an outstanding performance in a film that’s as unsettling as it is powerful. Well-written and sharply directed, it forces us to sit with the uncomfortable truths about ambition, isolation, and mental health.
