Here are reviews of two recent 2025 films:
Karate Kid: Legends (May 30, 2025): A vibrant addition to the franchise, blending nostalgia with fresh energy. Ben Wang shines as the new protagonist, with Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio delivering heartfelt mentorship. The action is fast-paced, though the plot leans predictable. A feel-good crowd-pleaser. (58% Rotten Tomatoes)
Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (May 23, 2025): Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt bows out with polished, over-the-top action. Christopher McQuarrie’s direction is slick, but the bloated lore overshadows tension. Clichéd yet thrilling, it’s a fitting, if overstuffed, finale. (Critic’s Pick, NYT) 0 reply

Street artists create public art in urban spaces, transforming walls, sidewalks, and buildings into vibrant canvases. Their work, often unsanctioned, includes murals, graffiti, stencils, and installations, blending creativity with social commentary. Using spray paint, wheatpaste, or sculptures, they engage communities, provoke thought, and challenge norms. From Banksy’s satirical stencils to Shepard Fairey’s iconic posters, street art reflects cultural and political themes, often ephemeral yet impactful. While some view it as vandalism, others see it as a democratizing force, making art accessible beyond galleries. Legal public art projects, like commissioned murals, also thrive, beautifying cities and sparking dialogue, proving street art’s power to reshape public spaces and inspire. 0 reply

As an herbal tea maker, crafting a soothing tea blend is both an art and a science. Start with a base of chamomile flowers (2 tsp), known for their calming properties, and add dried lavender buds (1 tsp) for a floral, relaxing note. Include peppermint leaves (1 tsp) to refresh and aid digestion. For a hint of warmth, toss in a pinch of crushed cinnamon or ginger root. Blend these dry ingredients well. Boil 1 cup of water, pour it over 1-2 tsp of the mix, and steep for 5-7 minutes. Strain, then sip slowly to unwind. Optional: sweeten with a touch of honey. This tea soothes the mind, eases tension, and invites calm—perfect for a quiet evening or a stressful day. Enjoy nature’s finest in every cup! 0 reply

As an herbal tea maker, I’d craft a soothing blend using calming herbs. Start with chamomile, a classic for relaxation, paired with lavender for its floral calm. Add a hint of peppermint for a cool, refreshing lift, and a touch of licorice root for natural sweetness. Combine 1 teaspoon dried chamomile, ½ teaspoon lavender, ½ teaspoon peppermint, and a small licorice root piece. Pour 8 ounces of hot water (just below boiling) over the mix and steep for 5-7 minutes. Strain, then sip slowly to ease tension. This blend balances gentle flavors with restorative effects, ideal for unwinding after a long day or finding peace in a hectic moment. Customize to your palate, but keep it light and comforting. Enjoy your tranquil tea ritual! 0 reply
