My Movie Review: The movie is such moving romantic drama from the past and present that takes us on a journey of swooning highs and gut-wrenching lows, as it starts kind of confusing the ending leaves us in despair as it doesn't reveal what happens to the old couple after their reunion at the park as Ellie and Rory watch what happen with Anthony as he waits for Jennifer! The Last Letter from Your Lover is no tearjerker this one more whiner so if you're looking for that level of release go elsewhere but it's passable as a finely curated plate of romantic meat and potato, comfort food lightly basted in bathos, wait to quell your hunger' for bit of escapism:) The love letters are very romantic if a little generic as the lush settings and Woodley's fabulous Jackie Onassis-inspired couture fashions are something to look the aesthetic help set the tone! Joe Alwyn plays Laurence Stirling, Jennifer's wealthy and successful husband who isn't what he seems, as his relationship with Jennifer is actually quite turbulent his one of male lead star:) The last moments felt at last as two aging lovers embrace to live happily ever after, even that isn't for very much longer! The Last Letter From Your Lover ending isn't exactly straight happy, considering how many years were wasted but least Jennifer and Anthony get there eventually:)

Critic Reviews: Indecision and miscommunication, it turns out, are timeless. An adaptation of a Jojo Moyes novel, here's a half-baked movie that offers two love stories for the price of one. By plaguing the elegant and tender moments of forbidden love with try-hard dialogue and illogical meet-cutes, everything that should make your heart sing just sounds out of tune. While I have lots of time for Woodley, I just don't buy her as the kind of woman who would speed along the Riviera in a convertible while wearing a Jackie O headscarf. If there's a chink in your emotional armour, there's simply no resisting what this film has to offer. Sometimes love comes like a bolt from the blue. In The Last Letter from Your Lover it comes clearly signposted and stamped. The Last Letter From Your Lover delivers a compelling mystery that draws viewers in with its energy and presentation. It’s a romance with a faux emotional connection that, on screen, frankly, has not been earned. The Last Letter From Your Lover isn’t the movie to usher in a new wave of romance films, but it does give a little taste of what the genre can be. I just wish it was a more filling meal. The Last Letter From Your Lover is a glossy tale of lost love that will work for fans of disposable weepies. Those expecting more happening it's return to sender!

My Movie Review: The movie is a build up suspense when group of terrorists pick the wrong plane to hijack in a Netflix thriller that never finds the right way to accommodate its wild! Overall Blood Red Sky itself is a fantastic premise that starts off really well but sadly hits too many obstacles along the way to make a great sequences while keeping their emotions intact:) An innovative horror thriller after a long time, Blood Red Sky is an entertaining affair that has the right levels of chills and spills to keep you on the edge of your seats like most of the time! The brilliant Peri Baumeister stars as Nadja, a troubled mother to a precocious young son who has boarded a plane to get treatment for a mysterious illness for as the same plane gets hijacked by a bunch of ruthless armed mercenaries as she deal with same the rest of the story! Blood Red Sky takes a phenomenal concept that mixes genre hits like From Dusk Till Dawn, Snakes on a Plane, and Train to Busan and just gone to ringer, when the bite's fatal with rage:) In the end, Elias has to make a terrible choice blowing up his mother and the other vampires to contain the situation but it might seem like an overly dark and shocking way to end the story, but Elias' decision is actually the culmination of him, Nadja's relationship as protective mother:)

Critics Consensus: Blood Red Sky makes the most of its high-concept vampire story, such delivering a fast-paced treat for genre enthusiasts. The sense of surprise or playfulness that you would think is inherent in a 'Bats on a Plane' concept just isn't here. Blood Red Sky is itself a fantastic premise that starts off really well but sadly hits too many obstacles along the way to make a great story. Director/co-writer Peter Thorwarth splatters the screen with gore while tossing in surprises, delirious preposterousness and even a few touching moments. It's grand fun. It's an intriguing dilemma - one that a better film would have done more to contrast against the hijackers craven inhumanity as Blood Red Sky fails to coagulate that conflict into action. It's type of plot that screams action-horror spectacle, yet high-altitude thriller defies expectations from the start. A beating heart of familial love pumps through the veins of this intense horror-thriller with a vicious take on vampire lore. We see how even vampires are better fit for society than terrorists. There's something to be said for a film that knows exactly what it is and fulfills its remit to the level best of its ability. It may draw from obvious influences, but it is its own movie, standing alone as a suspenseful, moving, sparks, and surprising film from start to finish!
