An excellent, emotional ride lead by a terrific Teyana Taylor
Inez (Teyana Taylor), fresh out of prison, takes her son from the foster home. The film follows their lives for over a decade as they strive to live a happy family life in the Harlem neighborhood of New York.

The acting is what carries the film the most. Everyone is fantastic. Grade-A performances.

The simple sets are well designed, and watching as their home evolves provides a brilliant layer to this film.

The brief moments of background narration showcasing the changing city as we progress through time was brilliant.

I only minus one star because I felt that the ending wasn't very satisfying, like the Director couldn't decide on whether the finale should be optimistic or not, so they opted for an anti-ending.

But I definitely recommend everyone give A Thousand and One a watch.

It’s been 30 years since we were introduced to the “Graboids” and Burt Gummer (Gross) and over the years the film has become the life story of Gummer more than a story of the fast-moving monstrous creatures, we even had a family tree movie with The Legend Begins in 2004 as we went back to the late 1800s to Perfection and met Gummer’s relative.

With Tremors: Shrieker Island Burt is now on a lovely looking island and has removed himself from society and technology, but nothing lasts forever and a group of wealthy trophy hunters genetically modify Graboid eggs to create the ultimate hunting experience, but it’s not going to go to plan for them and it’s not long until the Graboids escape their captivity and run amok on the island and the shriekers have developed further than the ones we have seen before in the previous films.
