Ah! Super excited that my art is now on the new HBO show Sweet Life LA !!!

So many movies.. So little time...

Don’t worry! Maimovie has got your back!

When They See Us

This series was hard to take in. It usually takes me about a week to finish a Netflix original but this one spread out through the entire month, as it was that mentally draining for me. Similar to Adan Syed’s case, with no hard evidence other than being at the wrong place at the wrong time, this series shows the story of the Central Park 5. Please watch this show, everyone needs to know that false confessions happen and that they need to stop. Available to stream on Netflix.

I am the Night

This show follows a young girl named Fauna who finds out she is related to George Hodel. Who is George Hodel? The doctor who was a prime suspect of the death of Elizabeth Short (aka The Black Dahlia). It’s a suspenseful show as it shows Fauna discovering all her family’s secrets. Available to stream on Hulu.

Ghost Adventures: Artifacts

Ok, you’re either a fan of Ghost Adventures or not. So, if you are, you’ll love this series. People bring in “possessed” items and tell their haunting experiences with them. From the dybbuk box (google it, it’s freaky) to Charles Manson’s TV, this show is full of chilling artifacts and history. Available to stream on Hulu.

Good Trouble: Season 2

If you still haven’t started this series… what is wrong with you?! There’s only been two episodes so far, but they touch on politics, women’s rights and following what your heart wants. I seriously cannot stress this show enough; it is THAT good! I feel empowered each episode i watch. New episodes added every Wednesday on Hulu.

Marlon

I don’t know about y’all but I LOVE MARLON WAYANS. This show is about “Marlon” who is recently divorced from his wife and his journey with co-parenting. It’s straight comedy- from the kids to their friends, it’s just a feel-good show and super relatable. Season 2 recently added on Netflix.

Confession Tapes: Season 2

Here i am to talk to you about false confessions again! On this show, it touches on all different true stories about false confessions in which a few are still incarcerated for. Episodes 1 and 2 of Season 1 is still a case that I think about constantly. Watch for yourself and let me know what you think? Season 2 available on Netflix.

MOVIES

Always Be My Maybe

Love, love, LOVE! Cutest movie of the year! It follows Sasha and Marcus who grew up together as neighbors and drifted apart when life happened, and Sasha followed her career. They happen to rekindle their friendship and it’s just a great story from there. Keanu Reeves also makes an appearance, in case you needed more of a reason to watch this film. Available to stream on Netflix.

Adam Devine: Best Time of our Lives

One of the best stand-up comedies I’ve watched in a while! Adam Devine is seriously one of a kind and not only are his jokes hilarious but just watching him on the stage is entertaining. If you watch Workaholics, you know what I’m talking about. You’ve never watched Workaholics? (it’s available on Hulu). This stand-up is available to stream on Netflix.

Murder Mystery

Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston are one of my favorite duos. They have such a good chemistry and are HILARIOUS. This movie is good, people. Follows a couple who go on a European vacation and are stuck right in the middle of a framed murder. Good thing Adam plays a NY cop! Available to stream on Netflix.

Throwback movie of the month:

October Sky

It’s based on a true story of Homer Hickman who grew up in a small coal mining town. His father is one of the top miners and every young boy in the town eventually grows to become a miner. Homer is fascinated by rocketry although his father doesn’t approve. Mesmerizing film that explains the story of one man’s dream which lead him to one day becoming a NASA engineer. I’m working on a separate post that focuses on all Jake Gyllenhaal movies so be on the lookout for that! Available to stream on HBO Now.
