Peacemaker (2022– )
7/10
Based on enjoyment 10; Based on actual quality 7
5 March 2022
I have watched all the episodes of Peacemaker on release since the original episode, and I don't really do that too often. Especially with a superhero show. Now, I'll be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of superhero media. I enjoyed Guardians because I'm a sensible person, but everything else I've seen has fallen short of expectations. And that includes the Dark Knight. But this I really enjoyed, even if the plot is weak. Like basically everything else is pretty good, if not great. So let me give a basic run down of the plot.

Post suicide squad, Peacemaker (John Cena) leaves the hospital with minor injuries considering a literal building fell on him. Since he didn't exactly finish his job at Project Starfish and he's too good for jail apparently, he's back on the job with a new group of teammates. As the plot slowly unfolds, Peacemaker is revealed to be a walking talking contradiction (I'll elaborate on this in a minute)

As for the actual show, it's really good. I can't really describe the bad parts with out diving into spoiler territory so I won't. Deal with it. So here are the good parts:

1. The acting. John Cena, America's favorite profesional wrestler turned actor besides the Rock, is really good at playing a feminine man who is obsessed with 80's rock. Plus, everyone else is doing a really great job. Peacemakers team member Harcourt is actually spectacular in her role as a women who under her tough exterior is really nice.

2. The characters. Peacemaker is a very character driven show. Everyone in the cast has just so many layers. I never thought I could cry about a dyed beard until now. You'll know what I'm talking about once you watch the show. Everyone is also really interesting. This is a minor spoiler but Peacemaker is BFF's with an eagle... NAMED EAGLY. And get this, Eagly can fight, like he'll pounce on you in a moments notice if you look at Peacemaker the wrong way. It's honestly awesome.

Young Sheldon (2017–2024)
9/10
Quality TV: Better the BBT
29 January 2022
I'll be honest. If I'm reviewing seasons 1-3, my rating drops to a seven or six. The show's really just now entering its prime, and the results are glorious.

In early seasons, the show kinda sucked. Yeah I'll say it, the acting from the children was shallow, there were no stakes, there weren't any good jokes, and so on. But in season 5, all of that is fixed.

You know how in Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe transforms from this scrawny kid who can't act to an actual award winning actor. Well, the same thing is happening to Iain Armitage (Sheldon), Raegan Revord (Missy), and Montana Jordon (Georgie). What actors, those kids. Since starting their roles, they've become so comfortable in characters, I can't believe their performance is coming from a bunch of children.

Also, it's no secret that everyone else is doing a great job. Particularly, Zoe Perry, who is actually the daughter of Sheldon's mother in Big Bang Theory.

Besides the acting, the jokes are actually really funny. Like, I'm actually dying at some of this stuff. It's really really good.

And the stakes are so much higher now. Seriously, there are so many good plot lines. For example, in a more recent episode Sheldon's grandmother starts an underground gambling casino at a local laundry mat, and eventually someone hits a jackpot and she has to find a way to pay them back.

The Suicide Squad: Everything You Need To Know
7 August 2021
Respected director James Gunn's The Suicide Squad has been received well on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes, despite the film's horrid precursor.

Where can I watch the film?

As of August sixth, 2021, the film is exclusively free on HBO Max though if desired one may pay for the film in theaters.

What is the film about?

In a comic book world, it is revealed to the government that a group of criminals have conducted a deadly experiment called Project Starfish. To erase the threat, the government sends a collection of cons to Maltese island where they find the enemy was prepared.

Is It worth the watch?

The suicide squad, though not a great movie is indeed worth the watch. While the plot is substandard, the film features great CGI and entertaining fights.

Moreover, the comedy is great. Every joke was placed in an appropriate time and was very funny.

Aliens Vs Predator - Requiem: Dumb Fun
5 August 2021
Aliens Vs Predator Requiem, though not amazing is definitely worth the watch. While the story and character development sucked, the film featured great cgi and was very entertaining.

Space Jam: A New Legacy: A Fun Children's Movie
1 August 2021
Space Jam: A New Legacy: A Fun Children's Movie

Dimwitted, entertaining and action filled, "Space Jam: A New Legacy" serves the purpose it needs to serve and more!

In a cartoon world, famous basketball Star LeBron James and his son are trapped in a Warner Bros algorithm. To get out, LeBron James teams up with the Looney Tunes in an epic basketball match for the ages.

Despite LeBron James' poor theatrics throughout the flick, the acting was phenomenal. Whether it be Zendaya as Lola Bunny or Don Cheadle playing a rogue AI, the film featured many famous actors who performed their heart out, no matter the scene.

While the acting was nothing to laugh at, the plot and writing wasn't nearly as good. As it is a kid's movie, the screenplay featured many unnecessary scenes that present cameos and semi funny jokes for the adult audience. Moreover, in true Space Jam fashion, the story (although fun) was too much.

In addition to the acting, the special effects were amazing. No matter the scene, the screen was brimming with life and color. Furthermore, despite their cartoonish appearance, the Looney Tunes look as though they belong in real life.

In summary, Space Jam: A New Legacy is a fun movie that suffers from a horrid plot and bad writing.

The Empty Man (2020)
10/10
The Empty Man: The most underrated movie of the past decade
29 July 2021
The Empty Man, though not critically acclaimed, is worth the watch. While, it features an abundance of plot holes, the film has amazing cinematography and the plot of a life time.

Moreover, if viewed, the film will change how you perceive reality. It provides many messages of philosophy that will get you thinking, regardless of your self image.

8/10. (I rated it a ten, in order to raise the movie's overly poor rating)

Star Wars Revenge of the Sith: The crappiest film ever made
27 July 2021
I have been a star wars fan since forever. I simply find the films fun. Therefore, it pains me to say revenge of the sith, like the other prequels are horrible films. Although they have great action, the films are very boring and feature, in a nutshell everything, you would not want in a movie. THE END.

A Political Campaign and a Candy Land Cheater: The greatest Young Sheldon episode ever produced
22 July 2021
The Young Sheldon episode A Political Campaign and a Candy Land Cheater has been received well on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes.

Where can I watch it?

As of July 22, 2021, the episode is free on HBO Max and CBS. Though if desired, one may pay for the episode on Amazon, Youtube, Apple TV, Vudu, and/or Google Play.

What is it about?

Giving room to many political theories, the episode is about Sheldon running for class president, in order to improve the faulty science gear. However, Sheldon soon realizes that becoming class president will come only at the cost of stooping down to your opponents level.

Is it worth the watch?

A Political Campaign and a Candy Land Cheater, while not an amazing piece of TV is worth a watch. It is very entertaining and provides messages of truth in politics.

Colombiana (2011)
5/10
Watch it. But beware of the flaws.
13 July 2021
Colombiana is a bad, though entertaining movie. While, it has an okay (although wacky) plot and great action, the film features an abundance of plot holes, and bad acting.

Furthermore, the main character appears invincible. As a result, there is little to no tension in any of the fight scenes.

However, despite Columbiana's flaws, I believe it is worth watching as it is very entertaining.

Fear Street: 1978
12 July 2021
Fear Street: 1978 is a pretty good movie. While, it featured bad dialogue and wasn't very consistent, the plot and acting were very strong.

Moreover, the characters were great. They all received, due, character development and were very interesting.

I recommend Fear Street: 1978 to anyone, looking for a fun horror flick.

90s Music.

Fear Street is an okay movie. While, it has unlikeable characters and a bunch of plot holes, the film features great action and an entertaining plot, that moves the story along at a brisk pace.

Moreover, the twists were great. All of them were very shocking and were revealed in a spectacular fashion.

That said, I recommend this movie to anyone looking for a fun horror flick.

The Hunt (II) (2020)
5/10
Fine. I'll take it.
10 July 2021
The Hunt: A highly polarizing film

Released on March thirteenth, the controversial hunt has been received poorly on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes, despite conservative's fondness.

Where can I watch it?

As of July 14th, 2021, the film is free on HBO Max and Hulu. Though, if desired you may pay for the film on YouTube, Amazon, Apple TV, Vudu, and/or Google Play.

How is it controversial?

Before release, it was revealed that the script described scenes in which a liberal called republicans deplorables. This resulted in, the president tweeting about the movie, saying it was made in order to inflame and cause chaos.

But, according to the director, he did not create the film in order to cause controversy.

''That was not the goal'' said Zobel ''Instead, the film cowritten by Lindelof and Nick Cuse, was intended to send up Internet conspiracies and the country's ideological divisiveness, particularly ''how people rush to assume something about someone, or assume they understand the beliefs of people that they don't know just based on them being ''on the other team.' ''

What is it about?

The film is about a group of 12 conservatives who find themselves inadvertently participating in a game, where they will be hunted and killed by wealthy liberals.

The would-be victims wake up in the middle of the woods, with gags in their mouth. Soon after, however, the group finds a box, filled with guns and (for some reason) one pig. But their confusion ends soon after and is replaced by adrenaline, when they are shot at. May the hunt begin.

Is it worth a watch?

The hunt, while not critically acclaimed, is worth a watch. It is very entertaining, and provides messages of hyper politicization,

It was good... until it wasn't.
3 July 2021
No Sudden Move starts off as a fun movie with something somewhere between a "Usual Suspects" and "LA Confidential" feel. But sadly, that doesn't last beyond about a third or so of the movie. While, it had some great actors and awesome shots, the film featured bad dialogue and a confusing plot that suffered from an excess of characters.

Furthermore, the second act was horrible. Despite the fact, the main characters in the movie were shown as excessively greedy, several of them turned down easy money.

I don't recommend this movie.

Great Summer Movie, Awesome Monsters
3 July 2021
The Tomorrow War is an okay movie. While, it has many plot holes, and the concept,(although cool) is weird, the film features great cgi and amazing, edge of your seat fights.

Moreover, the Aliens are great. They move in precise ways, they look like horror paintings, and are great for what the movie is about.

I recommend this movie to everyone looking for a fun, two-hour escape from reality.

The Big Bang Theory: The Stockholm Syndrome (2019)

Crying.
25 June 2021
Throughout the last two years I have watched this show nonstop. In fact, I have watched atleast two hours worth of episodes everyday.

Thus, after I watched this episode I was sad. Due to the amount of time I spent watching them these people felt like family, meaning to see them leave would feel as though I was missing something.

Goodbye, Sheldon. Goodbye, Penny. Goodbye, Leonard. Goodbye Howard. Goodbye Bernadette. Goodbye Amy. Goodbye Raj. And goodbye Big Bang Theory.

Job, kid.

Harry potter is a pretty good movie. It has fine cgi, very good world building lovable characters, great acting, etc. The only real problem with the movie is the drawn out ending, which was super boring and filled with plot holes.

That said, I recommend this movie to everyone.

Star Trek: The City on the Edge of Forever (1967)
Season 1, Episode 28
10/10
Perhaps, the greatest episode of any television show, ever made
30 May 2021
The city on the edge of forever is an amazing piece of television. It has great cgi (given the time the episode was created in), a wonderful plot, ok acting etc. The only real flaws with the episode are nit picks.

That said, I advise everyone to watch this television piece. It is truly a game changer.

The Sixth Sense: The Most Overrated Twist Of All Time
19 May 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Despite it's supreme identity as one of the greatest reveals of all time, the twist in famous director M. Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense is mediocre at best.

Revealing the twist to me under fifty minutes, Crowe (Bruce Willis) being dead throughout the movie without knowing it was alluded to many times. For one, despite encountering many, no one responded to him or even recognized his existence.

Additionally, I found that the twist features some plot holes. For instance if Malcom Crowe was a ghost and therefore saw what he wanted to see, he wouldn't comprehend his wife not talking to him.

That said, I like the Sixth Sense.

Black Hawk Down sucks! What?
15 May 2021
Black Hawk Down is a great movie. It has remarkable special effects, awesome cinematography, etc. Although it is small, there is one problem with the film which is that it is difficult to keep the characters straight. Due to the large cast, most characters get so little screen time the audience forgets who key characters are.

That considered if you like action packed war films, watch this movie. It will not disappoint you. However, if you a part of the large community of people who enjoy character development, this movie is not for you.

Tenet (2020)
7/10
Tenet? More like meh.
8 May 2021
Tenet is an ok film. The cinematography is pretty good, the cgi is ok, the acting is fine, etc. It has one true problem, the plot. The plot , frankly, doesn't make sense. Or maybe it does if you view it enough times. Or are inebriated. But it isn't possible to understand exactly what is happening and why. If you think you understand the plot of the film, you don't.

That said if you like action films, watch this movie. You will find it awesome as well as confusing. However, if you are apart of the critical audience of films, you will not like this movie. Don't watch it.

Without Remorse (II) (2021)
1/10
Tom Clancy's Without Quality.
3 May 2021
Without remorse is a bad movie. The story is incredible, as in, not credible. It has too many plot-holes to name, but one horrible example occurs when the military/CIA continue a mission despite the key player literally saying he doesn't plan to follow orders. But with all of that, the story beats the acting .

Almost every component you would want create well in a film, sucks in this movie. The only good aspect in the film is the cgi, which is merely slightly better than average. I do not recommend this movie to anyone.

Jojo Rabbit (2019)
7/10
Every emotion you can feel, you will feel, when watching this film
1 May 2021
Jo Jo Rabbit is a pretty good film. It has great acting, good cinematography, characters you can easily get attached to, etc. If you like sad, heartwarming though comedic films and don't get offended easily, I advise you watch this film; you will love it. However, if you are an action lover, are german, or are sensitive to '' dark humor'', I recommend you to not watch this film. There are many offensive jokes, there isn't much action, and the film portrays the germans as fools.

Mortal Kombat (2021)
6/10
Its fun
25 April 2021
Mortal Kombat is a fun movie. The plot is ok, the acting isn't horrible, the pace is fast, etc. There is truly one big problem with the film: there isn't much elaboration, explanation or backstory. In many scenes, character development felt rushed. In others, questions about the film could be made, yet would go unanswered.

If you like action movies, (and have gotten the vaccine or have HBO Max) I strongly advise you to watch this film. It will be everything you wanted and expected. It's not a movie to watch if you're looking for something serious though.

''The Crazy 88'' becomes ''The Dead 88''
20 March 2021
Wow, Tarantino. Yesterday I watched Kill Bill, Its truly a great movie, almost all details of the movie are first rate. The plot is astounding, the action is exciting, the effects served the purpose they needed to serve, the acting was pretty good etc. Being that this was Tarintinos creation this was expected; It truly made 45 minutes feel like ten.

Kill Bill is about a former hitwoman, known simply as The Bride after being put into a coma due, to an assassination attempt at her wedding by her former lover, Bill and three hired women assassins; going on to get revenge on her attempted killers while, the movie carries a 1960 Japanese movie's gimmick.

Fight Club (1999)
10/10
Breaking the first rule
18 March 2021
Fight Club is a distinct film. It has great actors like Edward Norton and Brad Pitt, great producing and the plot of a life time. Theres almost nothing not to love.

The film is about an un-named depressed man (Norton) attempting to hide from his insomnia, by going to therapy meetings designed for men with testicular cancer. However, after going on a trip, his apartment burns down, forcing him to move in with the person he was sitting with on a plane.
