We Are Family (2016)
8/10
what a surprise
6 June 2020
OMG, honestly, I didn't expect to laugh so much and so hard. The movie has a new creative idea and very interesting comedy. I just watched it as part of my french learning process but now it is one of my favorite movies.

And the final song, "On Ira tous au paradis"? I can't get it out of my head

The concept is what we missing for the children
18 October 2018
What I loved the most is the concept behind the movie. There is no pure evil and no pure good, "most people are in between" as the yes tree monster said. I really became to hate the traditional fairy tales where there is always a pure evil character who doesn't have the slightest amount of good and vice versa. This is not reality.

Inferno (I) (2016)
5/10
Are you out of your minds?
5 November 2016
WHY? Just why? Why did you change the ending in the book? I've been waiting for this movie for years since I read the brilliant book and you were honest to every detail except for the big unpredicted amazing brilliant ending of the book????!!!! Ron Howard, are u out of your mind? And how on earth did Dan Brown allow this change? Not every story has to have a happy perfect ending. People who have seen the movie without reading the book will not even know anything about the true nature of the virus.

I loved the movie until I watched the ending. Now I wish I didn't watch the movie.

All the way to the end of the movie, I was like "Please don't change the ending. Please don't change the ending" And BOOM!!! They did it. And I hated it.

Good movie bu lacking attention to details
19 October 2016
I liked the movie, the story, the acting, ..... etc. But the only thing annoyed me was that the direction was not that good. Two things made me say that. There is a scene where it rains on the road concrete where there was a small pond of water from earlier rain. When it started raining, it was pretty obvious that the rain was covering most of the pond not all of it which gives away the fact that this is just 'artificial rain'. Yeah we know artificial rain is the most used rain in movie industry but it cannot look like artificial rain. The thing is I wasn't paying attention and still I noticed it which is bad.

The other thing is I know movies based on true stories always have additional details for the sake of drama. But the director and the authors should pay attention to details. I mean the demon was so scared from the small cross in Ed's hand but he is totally OK and jumping around in a small room full of (at least) tens of crosses with different sizes. It was even moving them around the wall. This was just ridiculous to me. Being a true story this leaves me with the certainty that only one of those two contradicting facts have actually happened in the real story.

The movie had some other minor directing faults that shouldn't have gone under the radar of a professional director.

Plain STUPID
29 August 2016
Congratulations Hardcore Henry, you just joined my very short list of "Movies That Should Have Never Existed". This is as simple as an FPS from the 90s. I mean even today's games have a more solid story than this. Many many many unexplained loopholes. Stupid story. Stupid characters. Fight choreography that came all the way from the 80s. This is just plain stupid. If you wanna go in details, here they are: - What is that man with telekinesis powers came from? Really? Just like that we would accept a meta-human in a story like this? - Everything in the fights is staged for Henry to win. Even the last fight with the "Last Boss". The bodies in the air were exactly like a perfect staircase for him to reach the bad guy. Seriously? - The story, again, is so plain stupid and very shallow. This is the most annoying part for me. The story in a game like Deus Ex (which is not that complicated) is more solid and acceptable than this one.

I don't recommend anyone to waste their time and money to watch this crap.

Predestination (I) (2014)

Here Comes the Most Mind Puzzling Paradox ever
14 March 2015
Warning: Spoilers
When I watch a movie or read a novel about time travel I prepare myself to ignore any time travel paradox I might find in it. Because, well you all know. But this time, I couldn't get away I just watched a movie based on the Paradox itself :) Lucky me. It was as amazing and interesting as it was puzzling. I enjoyed it.

What's best about the movie that it did a very good job at hiding its spoilers. I mean if there was a very tiny hint that the temporal agent is the same Jane and John it would have been ruined for me. But, the beauty of it that it was revealed all at once when Ethan told John/Jane "Now, You understand who you are and I think you're ready to grasp who I am"

Don't know about the high ratings but it was DISAPPOINTING
23 December 2012
I read the novel first and I was amazed by the brilliant George Orwell and the wonderful details and imagination in the novel. The problem is the movie is missing lots of details. I mean, if someone didn't read the novel watched the movie he will get the wrong idea or no idea at all. The most important part and I myself consider it the masterpiece of George Orwell is the Book of Goldstein with its 3 chapters. In the movie they only showed one paragraph of the book!!!!!!!! Guys, C'mon. What I know is if anyone didn't read the book of goldstein part of the novel then he didn't need to bother himself to read the novel at all. And after all this they didn't show it in the movie for God knows why. I was really disappointed by the movie because I said it missed a lot of very important details from the novel.

Bad Teacher (2011)
6/10
What the **** is this?
7 September 2012
Warning: Spoilers
I love Cameron Diaz. I really do. But this? What actually this is? I can't consider this as a comedy movie. Comedy movies should ALWAYS end up with a good end. I expected that Diaz will end by being a good person and confessing all her crimes including those against the good teacher who was unfairly accused by using drugs and was transferred to another school leaving her friends. I expected her to return that stolen glass dolphin statue and to give her students some real lessons. But who the a.....e who made up that end? Which comedy movie on earth would end up by the evil wins and the good pays the price? I can accept that in Action, Sci-Fi or Horror Thriller movies, but not in a comedy movie.

It's like "The Truman Show" ending up with Jim Carry couldn't get out of that artificial city and still stuck in it for whole his life.

What a brilliant idea
29 May 2012
Warning: Spoilers
I don't know what other reviewers were thinking when they down-rated this movie. Some say that it had lots of action !!!!! There is a difference between adventure and action. I would praise the author's bright mind. Who in the world could think to get the four world famous novels "Treasure Island", "Gulliver's Travels", "The Mysterious Island: Shipwrecked in the air" and "50,000 leagues under the sea" in one marvelous work like this. I felt like watching "National Treasure" or "Da Vinci Code". This movie is wonderful. Especially the part when they got the three maps of the three books in one map. Who could think of that? Three Different books by three different authors suddenly appears to be talking about the same island all done by the brilliant authors of this movie. Other than the story I would like to point out that the movie is exciting with continuous events especially when it came to one of my favorite topics "Atlantis". Believe me it is worth watching.

A great action movie but not a great Holmes one
10 May 2012
This movie is amazing.... and I would have given it a 10 rating only if it was the same movie without the Sherlock Holmes character I mean it is a great action movie but lacks the deduction parts of Sherlock Holmes I mean if you counted them in this movie they will be less than 4 or 5 deductions. And I didn't expect that from a Holmes movie. So, I rated it 8 because it is really good: full of chases and actions and fights. Of course, I recommend watching it but I still insist on my opinion that this shouldn't be a Holmes movie. The first part of this movie was a far exciting than this one because the deductions were many and amusing. But the effort done in this one is pretty good too.

The A-Team (2010)
10/10
OMG!!! This was AWESOME
28 January 2012
Remember Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's Twelve, Ocean's Thirteen and The Italian Job? Here is another one of these brilliant mastermind movies. The A Team is a movie that comes with 3 brilliant plans inside the story. "I love it when a plan comes together!" that's it. Every time you think that they are gonna fail they astonish you with some genius and brilliant plan to make you jump off your seat.

Trust me this movie is the most awesome of 2010 and you are not gonna only to love it. You are gonna add it to your best movies list. I totally recommend watching this movie.

Bradely Cooper was as brilliant as ever in his all movies. And adding a mad soldier in the movie was a very pretty touch of the author you will laugh out of your heart.

Believe me this is one of the most brilliant works ever.

Poor Movie
28 January 2012
I was encouraged to watch this as it is classified as comedy here on IMDb. And I'm in love with Comedy movies. So I got the movie and watched it and for my disappointment I closed it from the half of the movie. I didn't find any comedy in the movie nor any action.

I really regretted watching this movie as it was very boring, I could hardly complete it again after closing it twice in the middle. The story is not that cool, it is not hilarious as some members reviewed it and it is not so interesting.

I recommend not wasting your time watching this movie and I don't know how it got more than 6 rating stars.

Misery (1990)
9/10
Stephen King as brilliant as ever
28 January 2012
I didn't watch psychological horror movies a long time ago and when I knew that this one was a Stephen King's novel I was very excited to watch it. It is very exciting that I spent the whole two hours of the movie unable to move to even get me a cup of water because I always wanted to know what is going to happen next.

The acting was very good from James Caan and Kathy Bates. They did their roles perfectly. The suspense was fantastic as you can't see these psychological horror wonders every now and then. So you are going to love this one if you love psychological horror and of course if you are a Stephen King fan.

The message has been lost
25 January 2012
I wanted to watch this movie after my very good experiences with Aamir Khan movies: "3 Idiots" and "Like stars on Earth". So I got the movie and watched it and WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!!! The movie - as any of Aamir's movies - has a message to deliver to the audience. but I think the message is lost in the many events of this movie. It tells about lives of different people and their intersections in a way that makes you can't understand who is the main character of this movie. I mean a movie can have more than one main character if they have one common thing. But when they have many things in common and sometimes they differ then you are lost. The ending is open too and you can't know how the issues ended at all. I don't know but I'm very disappointed with this movie. I rated it with 6 out of 10 because it has a very noble message to deliver but it failed to deliver it right.

I'm neither regretting watching it nor will be if I didn't.

Those old movies rock
22 January 2012
Warning: Spoilers
I didn't know that old movies were that good. I hesitated at first before watching it but I'm not regretting this decision because I actually liked it. The characters were comedy enough to make me laugh. And the story was pretty good. The events were interesting and pulling you to continue watching till you know what will happen next. I really didn't like the idea that none of the 5 best detectives world-wide solved the mystery. However, I loved it and recommend that you watch it too. After watching it I now want to watch all OLD CRIME movies that are out there. Those guys made good movies in time when there was no technology, no computer graphics and no high quality special effects.

Clue (1985)

Amazing Idea
22 January 2012
Warning: Spoilers
I loved the idea of making a movie based on a board game. It is new and interesting. I loved the characters and the comedy situations. The movie is pretty good compared to movies in that period of time. The crime is complicated, you cannot reach the killer easily and the solving technique is interesting. What I didn't like about this movie is the multi-ending. It is not cool and it made me some kind of confused. I mean you find the crime has been done by a certain killer in some way then it tells you no no no wait it could be done that way either and after you see it and convinced that this is what happened it tells you hay it didn't happen with any way of them both it actually happened that way. It is a little bit confusing, I mean it could be done in another way if they wanted multi-ending. But anyway the movie is very good to watch.

Great job Shah Rukh Khan
22 January 2012
AMAZING!!!!! I mean the acting of Khan was brilliant. You can swear that he is a real Asperger's syndrome patient. This was the first movie I see for Shah Rukh Khan and I loved the man from this moment (of course till I discovered the ARROGANT statements he said in different interviews). Anyway back to the movie, it was very very fantastic and perfect. The acting was super. I cried many times in this movie. It is very affecting. The story is brilliant too, I mean trying to meet the president with many failures. It is new idea. I can say that Bollywood have evolved a lot since 2002 (anyone watched Sanchein??? :D) I recommend watching this movie if you like movies that make you cry.

Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003)
10/10
Another Indian Marvel
22 January 2012
Kal Ho Naa Ho is a brilliant movie full of emotional situations and tough decisions. The movie is three hours long and you will not be bored at any moment, you will spend the whole three hours enjoying every second of them. Shah Rukh Khan was amazing in this movie. Everything was perfect: the anger, the love, the crying, the laughter and even the songs and dancing were awesome. Actors did a very good job in this movie. I can say honestly I cried in this movie more times than I cried in any other one. I mean it will make you cry more than once, not only in a critic situation at the end. I hope you all enjoy this movie and enjoy the songs as well, I couldn't believe that Shah Rukh Khan can do rap :D.

Very awesome kid and teacher acting
18 January 2012
This movie is the second one I see for Aamir Khan. And it was very very very good indeed. I (as usual in aamir movies) cried many times in this movie. It has a message to deliver to every teacher, mother and father. "Every Child Has A Talent" This is the message. I loved the movie, it affected me and made me cry. I recommend this movie for all of you. Actually I have to say that Bollywood had a very good progress in the last 10 years I will watch all Aamir Khan movies. I'm fond of this man. And for the child he was a very good actor. He managed to act the dyslexia patient very professionally. He will be a very good actor in the future. What I need to say at last "Go On Indians you are perfect". You will enjoy this movie a lot.

3 Idiots (2009)
10/10
The best Indian movie ever
15 January 2012
To be brief, THIS IS THE BEST Indian MOVIE EVER CREATED..... I know it is old but I just heard about it recently so I watched it yesterday. I think this movie should be one of the best 250 films in history on IMDb rating. I rated it 10/10 and believe me it worth more than this. I don't want to make spoilers in my review so that you will enjoy every minute of the movie. This movie is 2:44 hours length full of laughter, joy, tears, drama and passion. And of course, the most interesting part of the movie is GENIALITY. I loved every moment of this movie. and I hope to watch a lot of future Indian movies like this. I'm also waiting for Ferrari Ki sawari movie to watch. It is starred by one of the 3 idiots.

Thank you India for giving us this brilliant movie.

Brilliant movie
14 January 2012
This movie took the cancer disease problem from a perspective of a real story and made a good affecting film that will make you cry at the end. This is one of the few movies that made me really cry. The acting was super good. The most wonderful character in this movie was Anna Kendrick. She was very cute and acting very professionally. Another good part of the movie that it almost talked about all the problems a cancer patient may face. I mean all the social issues like increasing love, sympathy, people making use of the patient case, betrayal and loyal people. I recommend this movie for you if you like these types of movies. I rated it 10/10 and it does worth it.

Very Awful and Horrible movie
13 January 2012
This movie is the worst one I saw in my entire life. I watched it from the first moment to the last and still didn't understand anything of it. This movie is Crap. Please don't waste your time watching it. I'm very disappointed of this high rating it took on IMDb. What happened to the people? I mean this one takes 7.8 and a movie like "The Three Musketeers" takes only 6?????!!!!!! C'mon people for God's sake. The acting is very poor, the story is very poor, everything is poor in this movie. I REALLY didn't understand anything in the story. I hope this review of mine will help you avoid wasting your time on this crap. I regret on every moment I wasted on this. I cannot say more because I spent most of the time trying to figure out what is going on. I even didn't know how the movie ended.

Melancholia (2011)
3/10
Very poor movie
9 January 2012
Please don't waste your time watching this movie. WHY? I will tell you why. First of all, the intro of the movie is very very very very long and in vain. I mean you will expect that the movie will do something about this intro in the end but it appeared to be very useless. You will not understand anything out of this intro. The Justine part is very ridiculous, the thing is that you should feel sympathy about her but every time you are close to this feeling she does something bad that makes you hate her. I mean most of her melancholia is about sexual things. That doesn't create sympathy. The movie events are very boring and slow. You sometimes need to shout: "C'mon I got the point move on, change your position, DO SOMETHING" So, I advise you not to watch this one. I was confused whether to watch this or twilight and now I wish I had chosen twilight.

A very good drama , but a lot of sexuality and nudity
6 January 2012
For people who love emotional, passion and tragedy films, this is movie is the one. A movie full of society problems with drugs, old aged people and family. You may cry at the end of this movie. it is very affecting. The only problem with it that it is full of nudity and sexual scenes. And not a partial nudity, it contains scenes for full naked bodies. So, I was disappointed because I cannot recommend it to family members because of this. But my full and final rating that the movie is very good and the acting was the best. Especially the old woman character in the movie. Ellen Burstyn played her role perfectly and she was very persuasive. You may think for a moment that this is her real character.
