2/18/2019 1 Comment Children of Men (2006)What happens when one of the main symbols of innocence and purity is taken away from the world? The end of days in the world of Children of Men. This is a movie whose story is told not just in the main events but in the background of the movie. The main part is about getting the first baby in years to a ship but the background has really cool political views. It shows immigration and the struggles of a militant state. I really enjoy this movie full of really good symbols and meanings. The movie, like most good thrillers, hits you in waves. The tension would sometimes would not be there at all and other times the amount of tension was extremely high. The first 30 minutes of the movie had almost zero tension but then the tension and action hits you like the giant wave from Interstellar. This movie had great action and amazing suspense. It was a joy to be a part of. This movie had like 3 good people in total. Many of these people were the worst humans ever but I guess that's how the world would be in this circumstance. War and conflict can be a terrible thing. This movie does have a cool scene were we can realize that we are all people and something can unite people. I cannot express how cool I thought this movie was. 9.1/10

The big sick is a true story about how a Pakistani man met his wife. It is played by the actual guy. I don't like that usually and I feel like it is weird. It didn't really affect the movie though. It might have actually helped. I feel like Kumail was able to channel his past emotions into his performance. It is weird to have a guy relive a really traumatic experience like that but it works I guess. I feel as though this movie has everything a romantic comedy should have. It is a very heart warming story. It makes me so happy. I love that this really happened. I believe in a world of love and connecting with people. This was fate and destiny. I am glad this story got to be told. You can't help but smile after the movie. This is such a feel good movie. So to put it simply is that this movie held up the romance part. The comedy part was just as good. Ray Romano and Holly Hunter were very funny. I know some of the events dramatized but it still cracks me up. Ray Romano is treasure. There were a bunch a funny people in this movie. It all came together very well. A masterpiece romantic comedy to be sure. 9/10 2/4/2019 1 Comment Arrival (2016)Arrival is a science fiction movie about a laungage expert who tries to translate an alien laungeage. This movie is so interesting and I never thought I would I would enjoy this movie so much. I was blown away. First, I would like to say this may be the best movie I have ever seen. I swear, I was absolutely blown away. This almost combined my 2 favorite genres, thrillers and Science fictions. This movie doesn't have much action but it absolutely blows your mind. I don't want to spoil anything but I was flabbergasted by this movie. I could not believe what I was watching. The movie left me wondering and wanting more. I can't believe that I would enjoy a movie that's about translating so much. I am in love with everything about the movie. The Aliens were really cool and I enjoy this type of alien. They were so cool looking. AMY ADAMS put on a performance that was incredible. I loved the performance. I don't know what else to say. I could not ruin this for anyone. 9.9/10- my favorite movie I think I have ever seen 1/28/2019 1 Comment Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) I am a huge fan of the tv show Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The show is spectacular and in my opinion, the best star wars content out there. I have heard about the movie for a couple of years now and I decided to watch it. Man o man was this a stinky pile of garbage. I relive this movie is geared for the younger audiences but the movie miss out what makes the show so good. The show is dark and morbid. It always has a serious undertone because they are in the middle of a war. The Clone Army and Droid Army are serious foes and extremely deadly. They are almost treated like jokes in this movie. It is so frustrating to watch. These droids kill millions of innocent people but they are the punchline a lot of the time. Again it is a kids movie but come on man. Also Ahsoka is one of my favorite Star Wars characters. She is the absolute worst in this movie. SO annoying and arrogant. I can kind of appreciate this because this is when she is first introduced and over the show she gets more and more serious. It shows what war can do to a person. Rex is still the coolest person in the movie. All around I would give this movie a 3/10 1/22/2019 1 Comment How to Train your Dragon (2010)How do you train your dragon? i still don't get it but its one of my favorite movies of all time. Funny how this might become the worst one based on the reviews of the third. This movie came out when I was ten. Can you think of a cooler movie to come out when I was ten? i mean dragons are the coolest and learning to ride them blowing me away. Revisiting the movie was a treat. I really love this movie still. First of all, the animation is so beautiful. It looks so good like the ocean looks like actual water. The characters are awesome. Viking Culture has always been so facinating. Hiccup i feel like is almost self aware in some of his lines and it makes me laugh. I literally love every character in the movie. Toothless is the cutest thing in the whole world. The music is also very good. I think this movie is scored perfectly and the music sets the tone for the movie very well. I must say that final battle is also very epic. I can't wait to see the 3rd one very soon. Probably the best dreamworks series. 9/10 1/11/2019 1 Comment January 11th, 20191/7/2019 1 Comment Wreck It Ralph (2012)I plan on seeing the second edition of this movie very soon so I wanted to rewatch the first movie in preparation. I really wish that this movie did not get a sequel. It amazing on its own. First of all, if you love vifeo games this is really cool. It shows the evolution of video games and how they increased in maturity. This is mostly do to the software we have gotten now but it is interesting to think how video games are changing. Listen. I love Ralph. Ralph as a character is one of my favorite characters in a movie ever. He is super funny and super relatable to me. Just wanting recognition for what you have done for the people around you is not a bad trait but like all things you can take it too far. In this movie, almost everyone changes for the better. I think that's awesome because I like to think the same way. Ralph's character change is so heart warming and makes me feel good because I really relate to it. His relationship with Penelope is honestly the cutest father/daughter kind of thing. It is amazing how people can enter your life and change you forever. I enjoy every character and love this movie. No movie makes me feel better than watching this movie 9/10 1/2/2019 0 Comments Bird Box (2018)Is it good? Is it bad? people debate this but it is one heck of a meme I watched this movie with my friend Lucas literally the day before it blew up. We watched it and I thought it was a very solid movie. It had a cool concept and was very entertaining. The cast was really fun with Sandra Bullock, John Malkovich and a smattering of other likable actors. The entire time I was watching it, I got this vibe it was a Quiet Place but with eyes. The movie is very smart and has cool moments. The scene where they drive to the super market was awesome. I respect the decisions on who they killed off in the movie to which was basically everyone. The movie had a really good level of spookiness. I was genially spooked a couple of times in the movie. I was confused on what was going with the monsters or something. I was confused on what was killing people. Was it monsters, aliens, parasite, disease? I want to know what it was that was killing these people. Sometimes there were too many clichés in this movie. Like pregnant women in end of the world scenario or marine in that situation. The twist at the end with the blind people was so dope too. Over all I thought it was a solid movie. Not a 10/10 or 1/10 like other people think. I would give it a solid 8/10. 12/10/2018 1 Comment Shaun of the Dead (2004)Edgar Wright is a funny guy with a couple of good movies. Shaun of the Dead is interesting to me the second time around. Shaun of the Dead takes place in England while a zombie outbreak happens. Shaun wants to save his girlfriend Liz so he can win her back. Simple premise and not my favorite thing. I'm tired of just because you save someone doesn't mean they have to love you again. It's is so dumb and not realistic. She doesn't need to give back to him. I get that it might be romantic but I just want one girl to be like NO. I realize this movie was made before most of the walking dead craze but i am tired of these zombies. There is no way they would be able to overtake a population like ours. The military would easily take them out. I do appreciate this movie pointing that in the end but that really bothers me. Besides these things, I still enjoy the movie. It is a good laugh and it is fun. Edgar Wrights comedy is so funny to me. It is classic British Humor with how dark it is. Simon Pegg is one of my favorite actors. He always cracks me up. The only movie I need to watch in the Cornetto Trilogy is World's end now. The other 2 are solid and I hope this one is too Shaun of the Dead 8/10 Crimes of Grindelwald is the new Fantastic Beast movie. It is either loved and hated but I must say I enjoyed it very much. I want to say that if you have not seen the first movie the you will be very confused. This movie is just for setting up the rest of the movies. Again, the purebloods in the the Harry Potter world are causing all the problems. Grindelwald is just Voldemort 0 really. He seems to be similar in many ways. This however doesn’t really take much away from me. It is very good still. Newt is so fun to watch. He is such a cute person. The Beast, even though they were sparse, they were so cool. The underwater one is the coolest one yet. I also enjoyed how a beast was an important part of the story. It was kind of cheap but also really cool. Newt is such a powerful wizard and I did not realize that at first. I love it. Seeing Dumbledore again was so hype. There is a Hogwarts scene and it was so happy. This movie does a great job immersing you in the world that has not really been in theaters for a long time. I can't wait for the third movie to come out in a couple of years. The world of Harry Potter is so interesting because it is not really nation versus nation a lot of the time even though the muggle world has those problems Now, I believe Johnny Depp deserves an Oscar Nomination for his performance as Grindelwald. He played that part so well. This was his second best performance in my opinion and he was so brilliant. I would give this movie an 7.9/10 |
