"While I wouldn’t call Mercy a disaster by any means, it’s definitely a prime example of how even slightly promising concepts can be squandered with the wrong kind of execution." Bode Sulaiman reviews Mercy right here:
‘Mercy’ Review: Our AI Overlords Are Here
Timur Bekmambetov's next screenlife action movie shows potential, but quickly squanders it in favour of AI apologia.

Cinema from the Spectrum 🇵🇸@cinemafromthespectrum.com · 11mo ago"It helps that Ferreira is such a talented performer, nailing Grace’s optimism in the beginning and her crushed realities as the film progresses." Bode Sulaiman reviews Mile End Kicks, from this year's TIFF, down below:
"It’s always fascinating whenever any filmmaker has two movies opening in the same year, but with Linklater, it’s especially notable since he’s still one of the most eclectic and versatile American filmmakers that we have." We have two Richard Linklater reviews from TIFF, reviewed by Bode Sulaiman:
TIFF 2025 — ‘Blue Moon’ and ‘Nouvelle Vague’ Reviews: Double the Link, Double the Later
Richard Linklater brings a double feature out of biopics of two people who've influenced his filmmaking style greatly.

I’ve been going to TIFF since 2011. This year will be the first time I get to do so as press (on behalf of @cinemafromthespectrum.com). To say I’m excited is an understatement. #TIFF50
"It feels true to life, which is one of the biggest compliments you can give a film like this (a debut no less)." Read Bode Sulaiman's review of Sorry, Baby here:
‘Sorry, Baby’ Review: An Imperfect, But Reassured Directorial Debut

Made my CFTS debut with this review of Pixar’s ELIO, which goes about more like a personal anecdote of sorts. Check it out!

We’ll follow Nicole Kidman anywhere. Even if it means taking a trip down to Holland, Michigan.
BLACK BAG is still in theatres and is now available on digital, so it’s never been a better time to check out what we thought of it. #BlackBag
Saw COMPANION. Fun time at the movies (even if the exploration of its themes is a bit surface-level). Sophie Thatcher deserves the world.
I hope the roof for Rogers Centre retracts for both Kendrick / SZA shows, so that “A MINOR” echoes throughout all of Toronto.
