Agatha All Along is off to a fantastic start as it puts Agatha in the spotlight, allowing her to truly shine. Is it worthy of YOUR next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Kathryn Hahn and Aubrey Plaza are fantastic!

I was so excited when I originally heard that Aubrey Plaza had signed on to this series and she is electric on screen so far. Kathryn Hahn’s dark humor is really working as well, but these two ladies have a lot of chemistry together and I can’t wait to see the rest of the episodes unfold.

The rest of the cast has a lot of potential too and it was nice seeing some familiar faces from WandaVision.

A worthy series about witches!

I haven’t been this excited about a series about witches since Chilling Adventures of Sabrina first aired. It’s one of my favorite genres and already this series is excelling in this category. It’s magically captivating and this coven looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun. I also like that the series isn’t taking itself too seriously. It’s dipping into a lot of dark, dry humor that is really making this a blast to watch.

It’s difficult for a spin-off series to excel so quickly, but Agatha All Along is managing to do so. It’s recognizing where it came from, but it’s also branching out into an intriguing story worth exploring and I can’t wait to find out happens next!

I also loved those end credits paying tribute to so many famous witches over the years!

The Cons:

I don’t have any…

Honestly, I’m loving this series so far. The only con is that I have to wait each week for a new episode. I think it will be worth the wait though!

So am I in or out?

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“Do you want to make $200 in an hour?”

Emily the Criminal premiered in theaters on August 12th 2022. The crime drama-thriller stars Aubrey Plaza, Theo Rossi, Megalyn Echikunwoke, and Jonathan Avigdori. It runs for approximately an hour and thirty-seven minutes.

Here is the trailer:

Emily the Criminal is an intriguing story filled with thrilling moments and a brilliant performance by Aubrey Plaza. Is it worthy of YOUR next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Aubrey Plaza is fantastic!

I am a huge fan of Aubrey Plaza. She typically does well in comedy films, but I much prefer her in darker movies like Ingrid Goes West. This is where she really shines in my opinion. I had high hopes for this one and I think that she delivered and then some!

She drew me in immediately with her portrayal of Emily. This was a darker role for sure, but she managed to express so many different emotions as well. I think this was probably my favorite performance by her yet and I am so happy I got to see this one on the big screen!

A thriller rooted in realness.

I was completely hooked by this story! These crimes really happen in society every single day, but it was so interesting seeing things from the criminal’s perspective. Emily could be literally anyone who is in need of cash and unable to get a fair shot at a job, which naturally made you want to root for her even when she was breaking the law. Once she got into this world of crime, I was on the edge of my seat the entire time!

The Cons:

Some pacing issues here and there…

This wasn’t a major con, but there were some pacing issues throughout the film that slowed things down a little. I initially thought we were going to get more of a thrilling heist style movie and things didn’t have that fast-paced edge I was expecting, but I still think that the movie did enough to reel the audience in.

So am I in or out?

Aubrey Plaza’s best performance yet! 

A thrilling and captivating story!
