Eh, I give Infinity Wars a solid 8. Wasnt quite as good as I hoped (was extremely hyped for it tbf), but everything I wanted to see was there and it gave me a lot to process. Now I have to endure the wait for Ant Man and the Wasp/Captain Marvel before we even get to the second part.
A Quiet Place - Good but not great. It is supposed to be a movie about family, but it just made me think of how children cause nothing but problem. The aliens looked like miniature Cloverfield monsters and the movie felt like Signs mixed with The Last of Us. It's PG-13, and the scariest part wasn't the aliens--it was a nail.
it was a lot like Signs except significantly less boring
the thing is, i know Signs is a slow, boring movie and yet somehow I still look back at it fondly
I loved Signs.
Just saw “The Endless”. Was very good.
u guys notice the movies back in the day that u wouldnt watch or considered trash cause the industry was pushing out more movies...are actually better flicks then todays movies?
As time goes on, I think it gets harder and harder to come up with something original. So we'll see more remakes and more movies relying on special effects. And movies that try to push the shock value envelope.
IW was great but yeah the humor was ..... Eh
Especially Drax, I've never found him funny in any of the MCU movies he's been in.
Yet people laugh at his stupid in theaters
i thought the WHY joke was pretty funny. the invisible one was more silly/stupid. i did like him ignoring stark tho
Nah even the why one was unfunny imho.i thought the WHY joke was pretty funny. the invisible one was more silly/stupid. i did like him ignoring stark tho
The yawning one was ok
Actually I find the reverse. Some movies I thought were badass back in the day I consider trash compared to today's movies.
And I'm not talking about special effects. I'm talking dialogue, storytelling, editing and consistency throughout the movie.
Netflix movie: Anon
7/10
Intriguing concept of a future where everyone has something like a hard drive connected to their brains with the most important aspect of the movie being that everything a person sees is recorded and that info can be shared from person to person with permission or by the police instantly if a crime is committed.
Basically anytime a crime gets committed it takes the cops seconds to figure out who did it and how.
But hackers are able to screw with the system and block the cops from seeing murders and further screw with their real time visuals, making Clive Owen see things that aren't there.
They coulda shoulda done a better job at explaining how exactly the hacker(s) were able to change the real time visuals. Ultimately forgettable movie but I liked it.
Seven Psychopaths
Outstanding...9/10
Edge of 17.......8.5/10
Den of Thieves......8.0/10
Red Sparrow 3/10
The Endless 9/10
Really good low-budget sci-fi thriller. Believe it's in limited release right now.
got through half of jackie brown. seen it once a long time ago. feel the same way about it... it's really boring. will never try watching again.
chris tucker should've been in a lot more of it at least.
I finally got around to watching It and was fairly disappointed. Maybe all the positive reviews had my expectations too high.
Had heard it wasn't going to be that scary but I didn't even find the kids coming of age angle very interesting.
And it was too long. And not sure if it was on purpose but some of the special effects regarding the monsters looked like they were done in the 80's.
6/10 for me.
Upgrade
7.5/10
good not great movie. very fun ride, movie doesn't take itself too seriously. it's not trying to be some artistic piece like Ex Machina. good action. some good comedy. would recommend.
Will watch. Reminds me of Shoot 'em Up with Clive Owen.
The Cure to Wellness
This movie wants to be a lot of things but never quite succeeds at any of them. Great visuals and a great score. The story was very predictable and borderline cheesy. Dane Dehaan gives it his all but the story is just too thin to save it. I have no idea why this movie was as long as it was.
5.5 out of 10
Ha! Good reference.
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
/ 10
Absolute garbage. Damn near Sharknado quality, but without the self awareness.
All of you whiny alt-right nerds who have a fit over movies like The Last Jedi and Oceans 8 being tooSJW
It felt like there was limited marketing for this movie, and given the ty quality I really felt like they were purposefully mailing it in, but then they make it clear that it's leading to a sequel. They'd be better off starting over and pretending this one never happened.
I concur, good stuff not great but it was low budget so I wasn't really expecting great acting or incredible fx.
I did feel like I was watching a rip off of the new Venom movie that hasn't even come out yet tho. The dude even looks like Tom Hardy.
The violence made me laugh. Definitely worth a watch tho
The Wrestler
Mickey Rourke absolutely perfect as an aging pro wrestler with family problems. Which I'd imagine would be the norm in that biz being gone all that time. Why have a family?
The wrestling scenes were well done as was the insight into that biz.
A definite...8/10.
It's great how it is.
