Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)
Welcome Back MCU
Wow, what a movie. From start to finish it was good. Everything you would expect from a Deadpool film and much more. I'm a massive fan of both Wolverine and Deadpool, putting them together was the right choice. Truly a fabulous film full of action, comedy and just down right grit. What a wonderful revival to the MCU. Some of the best parts of the entire movie was all the tie ins. I love the old marvel films, I grew up watching them, and finally for the first time they are added to the MCU. Plus so much more I never expected. After watching this movie it really makes me want to go back and watch more Marvel films. I hope they continue in this direction. And I really hope there is a Deadpool part four. Well worth the watch if you're a fan of the Deadpool movies or Marvel in general.
6 Souls (2010)
B-Rated Horror flick
After reading the description of the movie I thought it was going to be a fun psychological thriller about a mental patient and the doctor trying to crack the case. The movie starts out that way and then takes some wild turn that had me thinking "what on earth?" The movie turned into something so different then I expected by diving deep into religion.
Great cast. The main reason why the movie is worth a viewing is if you love Julianne Moore or Jonathan Meyers. Both actors are excellent as always. Where the movie takes a noise dive, is in the story. It starts out very interesting. A deep mystery to crack. The movie is very simple, but the "what is going on" kept me wanting to watch more. Then about two thirds in, the movie takes a massive spin and gets very weird and choppy. And leaves more plot holes then I can count. It was like they bit off more then they could chew. And thought to themselves, how can we quickly end this? The film then became some kind of B-rated horror demonic flick. And the ending was just cruel.
The main heavy message of the movie is, bad things will happen when you don't choose God. Hold strong to your faith... I have no idea why this message is in this movie.
The Beekeeper (2024)
Statham Kicking Butt As Always
Another Jason Statham movie. As all of his films, he's just awesome. Lot's of action in this one as Statham comes out swinging.
I enjoyed it. It's predictable, if you've seen one of Stanthem's films you've pretty much seen them all. But I do enjoy his movies and this was a nice treat. He was bad-butt awesome. Like John Wick level.
The story was interesting and held my attention. The only very annoying and disappointing part of the movie was Agent Parker and her police partner. I kept asking why she was even in the movie. She's a horrible actor. And the character helped in no way. Completely useless and unnecessary. And why on earth did they think they could stop him? They see a mass of dead bodies and yet they're quickly running towards him and think they can stop him even though no one else could? He lets them live and the moment he does they quickly chase after him? Why? It was just about filling scenes. There was a lot of filler scenes in the movie that really didn't need to be there and made no sense. Which brought down the quality of the movie. But if you're able to ignore most of that it's a half decent film.
The Fall Guy (2024)
Nothing serious, Non-stop action
This is a true guy flick. It's a movie where the action never ends. With very little story. And they threw in a romance that is crazy shallow and very corney.
A movie about people making a movie. Plus adding in a side plot. The stunts were great and it was fun seeing how things were done. Kind of a behind the scenes look at how movies are filmed. The acting was top par and the filming was perfect. Personally it was too much action for me and not enough serious story. The story was very shallow and predictable. I kept rolling my eyes at this love story they had going, which is mostly just eye candy and hero gets girl. I was hoping for more of a real look at a stunt mans life, without the extra over the top side story and action that never wanted to stop.
It's a fun movie if you love non stop action and explosions.
Space Cadet (2024)
Why?
A feel good movie, that you can only watch with zero expectations and thoughts.
I had a hard time enduring the film because of how out to lunch it was. I know that movies are fake most of the time. And it's about going wherever your imagination can take you, but this movie took it a little too far with a serious tone. It took a very serious subject and tried to reason out why this could be possible. When in reality it could never be possible. It makes NASA look bad. If it was supposed to be a fluffy parody or comedy, then it needed more comedy to it. Nothing about the movie was funny. And some of the characters were hard to endure. What really tipped me over the edge of not enjoying this film was the ending. I normally love unrealistic films, but this was something else.
Fallout (2024)
More Please
Finally, a new series that captivates my attention. I binge watched the entire thing in two days. It was that good.
The series is very different than the usual. It brings the viewer into a whole new world. It was nice not knowing what to expect from one episode to another. The mystery in the show really captivated me. It was well thought out and threaded into the story. The humor in the series is fantastic and really makes it come alive. There's a lot of nasty gore, but it's usually done with a humours effect. Mixed in with this wild, apocalyptic world where anything can happen we have these amazing characters we follow. We see their stories and how they interact with the world they are in. Each very different then the other giving us a very different perspective on what is going on. Overall a great fantasy, apocalyptic, survival show. I really hope they make a second season. It really does have an original feel to it and there's plenty more of the world they could explore.
Abigail (2024)
A Fun Thriller
Simple and yet entertaining. It's really not much of a horror film. More of a thriller. There is an insane amount of blood as people seem to be bursting, literally into massive blood splatters.
It's a simple story. Not much to uncover, very little layers to it. But as all vampire movies go, it's fun to watch. And it's more comical than anything. I think the biggest down fall to the movie were the criminals. For being big bad guys they were really wimpy. They felt like normal people trying to be bad thugs. I didn't hate any of them, instead they were relatable characters which made it harder to watch the outcome. It would have been more believable and enjoyable to watch the bad guys die if they actually felt like bad guys.
There were a few things that didn't make sense and it was really easy to read where the movie was going as they gave away so many hints. But overall a fun thriller to waist an evening with. And Alisha Weir was absolutely fantastic as Abigail. The whole evil child theme is always an eery one to watch and she really delivers.
Orphan Black: Echoes (2023)
A Massive let Down
I loved the original Orphan Black. It's one of my favourite series. I was quite excited to see where this new one was going to take the story. Unfortunately I was so let down.
There is no grit. There is no real mystery to uncover or bad guy to take out. There are no deep onion layers to dig through. Or cool exciting characters to find. It's so fluffy and boring compared to the original series.
The writing is so bad. The show could have been summoned up in one episode and yet somehow they manage to drag it out for 10 by adding in too many empty filler scenes that it gets boring fast. They had a great cast, but no real story to act out. What's even more disappointing is that this is supposed to be the future. And yet there is no future tech. No cool costumes. Everything is the same, except everyone has an electric car, and there's less violence. Where is the creativity? Where is the cool tech? To make it even worse they have Kira looking like a sixty year old. Which means Sarah and the other clones would be in their eighties. And yet they talk like they are young and spry and out saving the world. To top it all off, they didn't do one episode with Tatinan Maslany.
In the original Orphan black, cloning was bad. You got people playing god and making armies of clones. Everyone wanted power... it's understandable. But in this new series, remind me again what is so bad about printing a dead loved one? No one is making clone armies here. No one is selling prints for money or personal gain. The answer that they give you in the series is that, it's heartless to bring a teenager into the world that has no past memory of who they are. We need to stop this and rescue them so that they aren't confused about who they are... what is so evil about this?
Another thing that makes no sense is why the richest man on earth only has three body guards to do his biding. These three people better bring down the bad scary prints and if they can't do it... no one can.
To top it all off, I made it through all ten episodes hoping the end would end with a bang of some riddled plot that makes you finally feel like you've found out a secret and uncovered evil. It's a let down.
Sister My Sister (1994)
A Sad, Dark, True Story
I was intrigued to watch this because it's based on a true story, but I felt cautious due to its content of lesbian incest. Soon after watching the movie all my cautions vanished. It's surprisingly a good film, very dark, but well constructed.
I think the reason the movie does so well with the sensitive subject matter is that the sisters never feel like sisters. They feel like lovers from the first time you see them. And the relationship comes across as mutual. It's done in a very gentle manner that shows so much love and kindness between the two. And then as the film goes on we see a decent into madness. But you can't help but feel for the sisters and thair horrible circumstances and life. From abuse to isolation to really only having each other its understandable what happened in the end.
The movie is dark especially how things end up. For only having four characters in the movie, it did a really good job with keeping its intensity and pace. I never felt board. The acting was amazing. Jodhi May who play Lea made those panic attacks look and feel real. Her anxiety was palpable. Joely Richardson who played Christine was fabulous with the extreme intensity she brought to the screen. One moment she could be the embodiment of kindness and love. The next she is a raging mad woman.
I looked into the facts of the true story behind this movie and felt a little disappointed. It does follow the story pretty well and adds in all the main points. But the real story is more awful and intense. And would have made a better movie if they would have followed it more closely. It would have been nice to have added more of the backstory of their childhood to give more context for their actions. And they were abused by their employer for years causing them to come to the end of themselves. It's a really interesting read. It's too bad they didn't add in more.
Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure (2001)
It's Made for Kids
Anyone who loved the original, this dose not compare in anyway. The original was magical and great for all audiences. Lady and the Tramp 2 is very kiddied down. It's about Tramp's son who is pretty much a defiant teenager who wants to do things his own way. Wants to be free from his life at home. We watch as he finds young puppy love, new friends and slowly grows up into a more mature dog. It's a coming of age story.
There are a lot of songs. No real bad guy, even the pound is no longer scary like it was on the original. The love story feels cheap and oddly out of place considering Scamp is a little puppy. It's directed more for a younger audience. I loved watching this movie as a kid, but now as an adult I find it difficult to watch.
There are many plot holes, like the movie is supposed to take place right after the first. We know this because the baby boy is still a baby. Which means Tramp has maybe been off the streets for a year. And yet they have him acting like he's an old man, ten years older. Has completely forgotten the streets and denies ever being a street dog. And it doesn't make sense that the owners kept all the puppies. They would have sold them. The only nice thing about the movie is that they kept the same art style and vibrant colors.
A Discovery of Witches (2018)
All Bark and No Bite
I absolutely loved the first season. They were setting up a wonderful world where witches, demons and vampires all lived in. It felt realistic and magical. There was a wonderful mystery to uncover that made me binge watch the entire first season. I thought to myself, where has this been hiding? It felt magical and exciting as the viewer slowly got to see Diana's abilities come forth. There was a great mixture of good vs evil that made you sit on the edge of your seat. Above all the cast was phenomenal. Throughout the entire series Matthew Goode was extraordinary with his talent of acting. His character depth and growth was amazing. The love story was beautifully written and so cleverly done. Above all the sets and costumes and such were gorgeous. The older buildings, items and books were stunning.
After watching season one I was so excited for season two and three, I had thought to myself, why was this series ever canceled. Then I soon found out... Season two is where the series need to expand and show more of the world they had set up. But it didn't, it stayed small. By the time we got to season three I had a hard time finishing it.
The problem with the show, is that it's all bark and no bite. Everyone is always threatening everyone. Everyone is plotting and scheming. And yet nothing comes of it. All the threats are empty. What's even more odd, is that we see the heads of the family, we see the seats of power, but we never see the army. There is no foot soldiers. There is no one to command, which makes no sense. Every king and queen has an army to back-up their threats or protect them. The series was lacking in the volume of people. It barely showed anyone but a handful of major players. And yet those major players seemed to be completely alone. There is no power or strength in the lone wolf. It got really annoying when they kept bringing up the Knights of Lazarus. They would threaten all the time about being the leader, or wanting to change them. And yet they never showed us any knights, no army, nothing. Empty words.... When someone finally does decide to do something, it's the leader of the group that makes the attack, alone. Do you ever see a queen or king go out to battle and attack alone? Normally the leaders are the last line of defence on the battle field. Where are the soldiers that they command?
Another odd thing about the series was the demons. They never showed us what makes demons different than humans. They look the same, they act the same, whats the difference? The series really should have been called "The Book of Life" The entire series revolved around getting the book. And the final episode wraps everything up in a very quick rush of disappointment.
The main two actors was the biggest draw to the show. They stand out wonderfully and are exciting to watch. They are magical on screen. Everyone else is very boring because they don't have a very interesting role in the series. They're just kinda there. Did any of them really help? Were they really useful? Were the bad guys really even necessary, what did they even achieve with all their talking, how did they slow down the good guys? The series lacked in giving any character real weight in the show other than the main two characters.
Superfast! (2015)
It's Bad, but Oddly Funny
I'm not sure why, but I tend to watch all the spoof movies created by the same people who made this one. And oddly enough I enjoy them. Yes, there's a reason they all have horrible ratings. Some of the spoof movies are even on the lowest rated movie list in IMDB. Are they good? No, not really. I think that's why I like them. They're so silly that they're somewhat funny. I like that they make fun of famous movies. Movies that we all love. Could it have been done in a more tasteful way? Yes. But still, it's nice to watch something that doesn't need any thinking. If you've seen one spoof movie from Jason Friedburg and Aaron Seltzer then you've pretty much seen them all. They all have similar jokes and style.
Superfast is better than some of the other spoof's I've seen. It's actually pretty funny in some areas. I love the way they made fun of Dwayne Johnston. That was perfect. The biggest downfall to the movie was the length of it. They somehow managed to fit in the first five fast and the furious movies into this single one. It gets a little exhausting after while when every single line in the movie is a joke. There are some cringe scenes as per usual. But over all it was still enjoyable. One of the better Spoof movies from Friedburg and Seltzer.
Balto (1995)
Another Great Animation Film for the Entire Family
A fun cartoon for the entire family to enjoy. I really liked watching this movie as a kid and I still enjoy it as an adult. The animation isn't as beautiful as Disney but the characters and story is really well put together. Especially the villain and the hero dynamic. It's done in a very dramatic way that clear cuts who you're rooting for and rings out the massage of, don't judge someone for how they look, but who they are in the inside.
Balto is about a half wolf, half dog who just wants to belong. We follow Balto as he finds himself, finds love and goes against all odds to deliver medicine to dying children. There are no songs in this one, it's a very serious cartoon that's filled with adventure and a great story.
The movie falls short in the voice actors. Kevin Bacon was not the man for the job. His voice is very flat and fails at giving life to Balto. His voice is too rough and deep. Emotion is missing from the voice actors, especially Kevin Bacon. The side characters were fantastic. I loved the mafia duck and the cute polar bears.
There is a true story of a Husky named Balto who delivered medicine to people dying in Alaska. The dog covered over 50 miles in extreme weather. But this movie is very loosely based on the true story. It's mostly fiction. But it's nice that it makes a viewer want to look up the true story and learn about what happened.
Lady and the Tramp (1955)
Wholesome for the Whole Family
Lady and the Tramp is good for all ages. It takes adult concepts of forbidden love and getting caught up with the bad boy and puts it in a cute cartoon about dogs. It's not dulled down to complete kiddie level, but instead holds it's own for all ages. With a mixture of a romance story, a fun adventure and decent action. It's very wholesome and has some great scenes with the trouble making Siamese cats and the famous candle lit, spaghetti eating scene. There are great side characters and a fun plot.
I love the detail and color. All the colors are very vibrant and lively. And the detail in each frame is astounding. The thought and care that went into creating this masterpiece is clearly seen from start to finish.
I also really enjoyed the fact that Lady and the Tramp has very few songs in it. It's less of a musical and more of a normal cartoon. It's fun and easy to watch. Great for the whole family.
Tarzan (1999)
One of the Best Disney Movies
Easily a masterpiece. One of the finest animated films. The music track is beautiful. So many of the songs live rent free in my head. Phil Collins out did himself. The story of Tarzan is excellent. From start to finish it's balanced perfectly. There's lots of fun action mixed with gripping hold your seat action. There's so much comedy that makes me laugh at scenes. And there's other moments that really hit the heart strings nearly making me shed a tear. They even manage to throw in a really cute love story. Tarzan is wholesome. It's fun and never gets dull for a moment. It's great for kids and adults.
I loved this movie as a kid and I still love it today. And I hope one day my kids will love it too. I wish Disney would make more movies like this one. If you haven't seen it and you love animated moves, you need to watch this. It's worth your time.
Showgirls (1995)
The Struggle and Endurance of a Woman in Las Vagas
It's a little all over the place. Not an easy movie to rate because it was really strong in some area's and very distasteful in others. It really does stick with you after.
The movie follows a woman who wants to be a dancer. Nothing is explained about her until nearly the end of the film. We watch as she struggles to find her way in Las Vagas. A city that treats all woman like prostitutes. We watch as she struggles for fame while trying to be more than just a sex item, a person who can actually dance. The movie shows an ugly side of Las Vagas. To make it big, a woman has to sell her body. They are only seen as a sex idol, or an object. We follow a woman who wants to be more and yet still falls into those cracks. This is not the normal view we see in movies. We expect Showgirls to be a fun eye candy treat, but are met with a heavy message.
The hardest and most uncomfortable thing to watch was the woman's anger issues. It would take next to nothing to set her off, on an over the top tantrum of anger. Like a little child losing their mind and being unreasonable. Being angry made sense, but they turned the dial up way too high in the scenes. And it's riddled all through the movie. Near the end it was finally growing on me but it took awhile to get there. And it took way too long to explain her anger issues.
The movies does a great job with the cast, the dancing scenes and the excessive full nudity throughout the entire movie. They also add in one wild sex scene in a pool. There's loads of eye candy, It's visually fantastic. Unfortunately there is one really hard to watch rape scene. The story is where it falters. For such a long movie that takes on a long and exhaustive journey, it has a disappointing ending. If they would have giving it a better ending, the movie would have been much more enjoyable. The ending ruined the entire movie.
Brother Bear (2003)
Still makes Me Cry
I loved this movie as a kid and I still love it. It's very wholesome with a heartfelt story. A boy who wants to be a man and his journey of growing up. It's a coming of age movie done in a very creative way. We follow a native boy who turns into a bear. There's some really sad scenes and also some really funny ones. It's an epic journey of the heart.
Maybe it's one of Disney's softer movies, as it tells us about not hurting animals and we should all be friends. The message is very politcal in that sense. But it's a really cute story and really well put together. I love the art work and the voice actors were perfect. My favorite part were the moose. They are hilarious.
Fire and Ice (1983)
Creative but Teasing
A story of the pre-man age, similar to Connan the Barbarian but animated. The art style gives us a painted background with normal drawn characters. I found it very creative with fun monsters and great gory action. Unfortunately it lacks in story giving us lots of teasing moments and keeps the viewer on the edge of their seat.
We watch as Ice wars against Fire. The cold king wants to destroy all. Everyone else is innocent and just trying to survive the brutal assault. The movie follows a few characters who are left in the aftermath. The most tiring thing about the film is that evil always seems to win. The good guys can't even get a chance to breathe. We also don't get to see one massive army against another. I was waiting for that epic battle of all of fire vs all of ice but it never came. And we really don't get to see the full force of fire, only ice. It also would have been nice to have more scenes with the ice king and his mother.
The gore is fantastic. The fighting is great. There's lots of eye candy but no real follow through with it. Most of the movie feels more like a tease instead of a follow through. There's no calm moments in the movie, it's constantly a feeling of running for your life.
It's still a fun animated movie thats very serious. There is lots of action and intense moments. The monsters are fantastic. It's not as great as Heavy Metal, but still a good watch.
Shrek the Third (2007)
All Over The Place
No real clear cut story. The first film had a fun adventure of saving the princess and falling in love... now we have so many different things thrown in to create a cluster of cliches and a boring plot.
The question is, who will be king? We already know the answer. But we watch as everyone fights and shoves for it. On top of that they throw in "lets have kids". And on top of that they give us a bit of action here and there with some side story stuff. It all becomes this jumbled mess. II really needed a clear and simple adventure. There's too many different characters now and so much going on that it creates a busy headache. There was very little time with Shrek and Fianoa together. They spent most of the movie apart which was disappointing.
It's still a good cartoon. It just doesn't have the umph that the others had. It's just "okay"
Heavy Metal (1981)
Where has this gem been hiding?
From start to finish it was good. Extremely good. The story was really fun and creative. It's packed full of fantasy, space, monsters, aliens, evil, gore, action and crazy hot girls. Each little story told is interesting, there's never a dull moment in the entire thing.
The movie follows the stories of a green evil orb and how it effects different races and planets in the universe. It tells us about the evil in people and the power the orb has.
The very adult content was perfect, all the way through we get beautiful naked women, a couple sex scenes, lots of gore and action. But not only that, the movie has a great message about evil vs good. And the music track is amazing. I'm a big fan of animation, this movie really did a great job with the art work and design. That final story, with our ultimate hero was done so well. And the costume was very creative along side the colors.
Shrek 2 (2004)
Another Solid film in the Franchise
Not as good as the first, but very close to it. Shrek 2 brings back all the same charters and voices we loved in the first, plus they add in a few more. Puss in Boots, was a very good add. I loved this character so much. He's adorable and fierce all at the same time.
A classic tale of, meet the parents. I find in the first movie I tend to forget that the princess is a daughter of a king and queen. We really get to see all of that in the second movie. And it's very funny. Well paced. And keeps you interested all the way through. Again there are great adult jokes with a fun story and great new characters. If you loved the first one you will love this one too.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)
Iconic For a Reason
It's a different kind of movie. Very different. But also unique. The movie succeeded beyond succeeding in merging normal film with 2d cartoon with next to no seams. This is an adult film. And it's a very entertaining one at that. With amazing special effects for it's time.
A poor struggling rabbit with a very hot wife, is framed for murder. We follow a detective as he tries to get to the bottom of it. The best part of the entire movie is how they brought Disney and Warner brother cartoon characters together in one movie. It's really fascinating that they make it seem like there really are cartoon people out there just acting on camera. It's a really fun concept. Especially since we all know cartoons are nearly impossible to kill, what happens when you bring that silly cartoon character into the real world? A world of trouble... and a really fun story. Who Framed Roger Rabbit is one of the most Iconic films to bring us a cartoon character that makes our hearts speed up with pure lust. It's a movie that had amazing special effects for it's day. And gives us a fun and entertaining story that's very different then most.
Shrek (2001)
Still Stands Up. Solid Movie.
There's a reason it has a rating of 7.9 with over 700k ratings. It's good. It's solid. It's worth your time if you love cartoons.
Shrek is one the first cartoons I ever saw that is riddled with adult jokes and yet still is a great kids movie. Most of the jokes are subtle and hint at another meaning. It's wildly entertaining for all ages.
A fun spin on the classic Disney princess story. Almost a parody. I love that they included Disney characters into the movie and still managed to add in fun songs too. The movie also has a great message, it's not how you look, it's what's inside that matters. And the character dynamic of Eddie Murphy and Mike Myers was perfect in every way. They are so funny together.
Very funny, heartfelt, great message. Entertaining plot. Perfect character dynamics. Solid movie.
Lisa Frankenstein (2024)
Easily A New Cult Classic
This movie is strange. There's lots that doesn't make sense or is unexplained. Kind of like jumping into a trippy world. But it's fun strange. For all those who love Tim Burton films, this one is similar. My favorite part was the super bright colors. The entire movie was filmed with 80's vibes which made it that much better. Giving it a really campy, classic feel.
Yes it tries a little too hard in area's and the plot was a little disappointing with the overused love story, let's have sex before my life ends... but the character development was fun. All the characters in general were great. And the weird vibes were fantastic. This will easily become a cult classic.
Dune: Part Two (2024)
Go Watch It!
If you loved part one, you will love part two. Needs to be seen in IMAX theater. The movie's soundtrack is phenomenal along side the vibration from the theater speakers with the gorgeous picture from the screen. You only really get the full masterpiece effect when seen in theaters. The movie's story is slow like the first film, but it's a masterpiece. It's visually stunning and really dives deeper into the world it's trying to show us. We finally get to see more of it along side other aspects such as new characters and the structure/order of how things are run. The film can afford to be slow because it's nearly three hours long and there is definitely going to be a part three. There's some really solid action in the movie and it's very creative with the technology, makeup, shapes and structures. You truly feel like you are entering an alien world making you crave to see more of it.
