!Warning! Potential Spoilers !!

Saw- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️:

I didn't fully understand the narrative of the film until I watched the other Saw films. Overall plot however, and thriller aspect was great. (Also Adam is so iconic I can'ttt)

Grease- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️:

Yes, I know…I haven’t watched Grease up until this point. Forgive me, because this was a fun movie, I only rated it 4 stars cause I had to get up and leave during a bit of it. But would watch it again.

Donnie Darko- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️:

I FW WITH THIS MOVIE HEAVILY OMG. Now officially in my top four, the twists, the cinema, the character dynamics, the sequence of events, IM LITERALLY OBSESSED. Easily my best watch of 2025…which is not saying much, cause I’m only recently getting into movies, but nonetheless, this is easily 5 stars. Also Jake Gyllenhaal IS SO DAMM FINE IN THIS HOLY…

Saw II- ⭐️⭐️⭐️:

I’m gonna be so fr, this movie was so forgetful for me. It wasn’t bad, but out of the whole Saw franchise, this is one of the weaker films, however it was still good! Just…forgot what happened in it.

Saw III- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️:

HOLY. SHIT. YES. This made me really get into the movies, and the realisation of what everything is about, and what fell into place. This movie made me fall back in love with Thriller films, so easily 5 stars. Only thing bad about this was killing off my girl Amanda…😔

Saw IV- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️:

This was good! However, was not as good as Saw III. I DO think however the twist of Mark Hoffman was CRAZY CAUSE WOWOWOW. Also Daniel Riggs was a really well written protagonist he’s one of my favourites bless him. 😔

So uh what the fuck Kitt?!

In all seriousness though, reading sequels is hard, especially if you you kicked it off with a good anticipated ending in the last book, but this exceeded my expectations! There was action, banter, some form of comedy, and SO MUCH TENSION which is perfect for a enemies to lovers trope in a political fantasy setting. And not to mention they kicked off the third book that is yet to come with a really good (and slightly painful) cliffhanger (just like Fourth Wing iykyk).

I do also like the fact that its an actual enemies to lovers! Like it's actually DRAGGED ON like a slow burn type of thing, but except they're both in denial cause of their situation, which is also captivating!

However, the only thing I could critisise for was how much they dragged the fact that they were in the desert. Personally for me, during the time when they were in Dor, I couldn't help but feel the fact that the book started getting so slow that I was getting sick of them being in Dor! So in a way it was a tad slow.
