“Practical Magic” Review
⭐️⭐️✨ 2.5 With Practical Magic 2 on the horizon, my local cinema screened the original 1998 film this weekend.

“Eternity” Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 When the chance came to watch this film on release day, I booked tickets. The trailer looked interesting and I thought it might be entertaining. Elizabeth Olsen stars in this romantic comedy as Joan. After passing, she’s given a week in the afterlife to decide how she’ll spend…
