Written and Directed by Tracie Laymon
Produced by Tracie Laymon, Sean Mullin, Edgar Rosa, Felipe Dieppa
Starring Barbie Ferreira, John Leguizamo, French Stewart, Lauren "Lolo" Spencer, Rachel Bay Jones

BOB TREVINO LIKES IT is inspired by the true friendship that writer/director Tracie Laymon found with a stranger in real life while looking for her father online.

Often playing the role of caretaker to people like her father, who should be caring for her, Lily Trevino longs for familial connection. When her father, Robert, finally checks out of her life, Lily looks for him on the internet. She tries to "friend" a man she believes is her father on Facebook. But instead of finding Robert Trevino, she finds Bob Trevino instead.

Bob Trevino works long, hours at a construction company to support his wife Jeanie's elaborate scrapbooking habit. The couple has endured a lot in the past decade, and Bob has prioritized his wife's healing to the point of ignoring his feelings and sense of loneliness. When Bob gets an unexpected Facebook message from a stranger named Lily Trevino, he discerns she needs a friend as much as he does.

Lily and Bob's blossoming friendship becomes a vital source of connection and healing for both, holding the power to change each of their lives forever. Winner of an astounding thirteen film festival audience awards, BOB TREVINO LIKES IT retains the optimism that big tech can still provide human connection and that true friendship is a powerful kind of love and perhaps the family we need most in today's world.

Review: 'MaXXXine' Emboldens An Unstoppable Final Girl Through Hollywood Stardom

Ti West’s MaXXXine moves away from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre-inspired grit and into an ‘80s -thriller driven by its Law & Order undertones. As an experimenter who likes integrating new styles, West has been able to invigorate the X franchise with new life all while improving his own vision. Though it might pull back on the blood and gore, MaXXXine’s dramatic mystery, great performances, and poppy cinematography will keep viewers hooked.

The latest installment in the X films continues the stor

'The Imaginary' Review: Studio Ponoc's Feature Is A Solid Blend Of IF and Imgainary's Ideas

There’s no understating how the concept of imaginary friends has found itself firmly in recent films because we’ve had films like IF and Imaginary essentially explore two sides of the same coin. IF explores the ideas of friendship and finding joy in the midst of tragedy through childlike wonder while Imaginary flips that concept upside down and asks what if there’s something darker to uncover.

However, for The Imaginary, it manages to take pieces from both movies and puts its best foot forward

‘Fallout’ review: Prime Video’s first video game adaptation just works

To be completely honest, playing through Bethesda‘s games has its positives and negatives. Despite some being buggy messes and riddling controversies, the series has managed to stand the test of time with its charming characters, expansive apocalyptic-retro world, and much more.

So when it came to Prime Video‘s live-action take, there were some hesitations that it would end up having bad karma. Fortunately, Jonathan Nolan and company have concocted a worthy adaptation that proudly combines the

Kung Fu Panda 4 Review: DreamWorks’ Nostalgia Run Almost Works

There's no doubt that has always been one of DreamWorks' landmark franchises thanks to its compelling story of Po's journey spanning three films and several television projects and awesome action sequences.

Each film has played its own integral role, seeing Po master his emotional and physical balance much to celebrated acclaim from everyone. As for Kung Fu Panda 4, this film is rooted deeply in that nostalgia feeling with its legacy take, but it still maintains the energy the series is known f

Invincible Season 2 Part 2 Review: Exceptional Second Half That Hits the Right Spots

Just a few months ago, ‘s second season on Prime Video came out with a bang that no one was ready for. While many were excited to see how the show was going to continue Mark Grayson's (Steven Yeun) story, its mid-season break left a sour taste for those who wanted more. Fortunately, the second part of Season Two confidently satisfies fans with its concise pacing, overarching emotional storylines, and bonafide shockers.

‘The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy’ Review: Stephanie Hsu and Keke Palmer Carry This Cosmic Comedy

For some, sci-fi comedies can often come and make an impact like , , , and more. However, none have been more visually popping than that of Prime Video's latest inspired series set in space, The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy . Throw in a bunch of wacky patient-of-the-day problems, absurdly funny jokes, and some tangible side-plots and you get one of the most wackiest shows Prime Video has received from the mind of Cirocco Dunlap.

However, before fans could say goodbye to the show, its final season introduced fans to an idea-turned-reality in Clone Force 99, aka “The Bad Batch” with some wild adventures.

‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians’ Review: Best Adaptation of Rick Riordan’s Work

His name is Percy Jackson. He's twelve years old. Until a few years ago, the only live-action adaptations that existed were the films from 20th Century Fox, which left fans completely disappointed. Chris Columbus' take was butchered, disorganized, and ultimately lacked the creative vision that made this franchise a success.
