John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023)
3 hours of bang bang boredom.
I don't know what to say. I got bored of the gunfights after the first 5 minutes. Especially considering everyone had magical kevlar bulletproof suits that still allowed full range of movement. Meanwhile, they guys in full armour go down after a couple shots.
Having trouble shooting a guy? Let John just roll around on the floor for a bit and then headshot him. Luckily for John Wick, nobody thought to make a hoodie version of the kevlar suit.
And then how do they end the movie? With a gunfight! And one guy was blind!
Somebody approved this script. They should be ashamed of what they've allowed to happen to the character.
The Revenant (2015)
Predictable, but beautiful.
If it wasn't for the hype, I would have enjoyed this movie a lot more. While Leo acts well, I feel like the storyline was less than challenging. The settings feel so real that there's a sense of hopelessness for anyone who ventures out into the wild surroundings. In a sense, they're all already lost, consumed by the lives they have chosen. The supporting stories carry this movie in a way that the main story does not. Maybe that's part of the authenticity, a man struggling with the reality of a hard yet forgettable life. No superhero, no martyr, just a man and his journey.
