Nope (2022)
Can I give less than one star? Nope.
The movie started off with a promising beginning - two siblings trying to make it alone after father dies from mysterious circumstances, but then the next 2 hours was pure garbage. Now I'm no film expert with all that noire stuff, but anyone can see Jordan Peele needs to stop putting his weird thoughts into movies as it sucks. This movie lacks everything a thriller should have including a poor reveal of the sinister "thing" and is not exciting one bit. The special effects are also subpar and actors felt forced into portraying characters they didn't want to or content that lack any emotions. One of the worst movies I have seen ever.
Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)
Don't watch this if you wanted Judgement Day to be the last!
If you appreciate, enjoy and wanted Judgement Day to be the last movie in The Terminator movie franchise, don't watch this movie.
The first half was extremely boring with little story development and only Arnold's appearance after 45 minutes did the movie felt OK but it was too little too late by then. I left the theatres very disappointed and baffled of the ending!
Captain Marvel (2019)
The start of the end for the franchise
I thought Ant-man & the Wasp and Black Panther were bad, this is like the director and producers waited to play a joke on its audience.
The movie is terrible on all aspects and why did Marvel cast Brie Larsen for the lead role? The poor woman cannot act for peanuts and is a terrible fit. The script feels like it was written by a preschooler and the overall execution was just terrible.
The only good was some of the CGI fight scenes.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
Makes Marvel movies look childish
I just came back from the first official screening of BVS and must say it blew my mind away. I came in with low expectations as although Man of Steel (2013) wasn't bad, it wasn't super great either. Also, pitting two of DC's biggest characters against each other is no easy task but the movie managed to do this quite convincingly.
Overall, a great movie and as the title suggested this movie makes Marvel movies look childish and I meant no disrespect. Sure, Marvel movies are fun and entertaining too, but it's more dumbed down for little kids whereas this movie is dark. I loved it and it brought back memories of the Michael Keaton Batman days. I cannot wait for the Uncut/uncensored version that Zack Snyder is promising in the BluRay release in a few months. Go see this movie at the Cinemas, it's that good.
Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials (2015)
Better than many have overlooked!!
I just watched this movie and must say it is just as good as the first part. What people need to understand is this is a three-part trilogy so this is a "bridging movie" for the finale which is not due until next year so you cannot expect the storyline in this movie to have a proper ending.
I love the action scenes and thought the storyline flowed very well and served to answer a lot of the uncertainties in part one. It is getting way too much slack than it deserves. All the lead characters did a wonderful job with their acting and the direction was also great.
I cannot wait for part 3 which will wrapped it all up. I think the quality of this movie will depend a lot on how part 3 turns out so I hope the movie makers will do it justice.
Myeong-ryang (2014)
Not as good as I expected...
This movie has been hyped up for over a year since it's release by the South Korean media.
Although it's fight scenes were actually very good. The storytelling itself is poor and very predictable. When compared to The Brotherhood of War (also made by South Korea) this is nothing close to it.
The acting by the Admiral character was light and poor acting in my opinion. Watch it if you will but it will never stand up to Band of Brothers, Saving Private Ryan, Brotherhood of War or We Were Soldier.
It is a movie you will watch once and forget which is a real shame as it had all the merits and cast to become an epic war movie.
Fifty Shades of Grey (2015)
Stay away from this movie like the plague!!
Despite all the hype and promotional efforts. This movie is a piece of rubbish and a disgrace to film-making.
I must admit, I'm not a fan of film noire or abstract themes but I can still appreciate good acting, film-making and storytelling. This movie had none of the above. It is simply a bad piece of film. Total rubbish that needs to be swept out to the streets and picked up by a dump truck and taken to the tip. It is that bad.
The story itself is absolutely terrible. The acting had no chemistry and is based on a theme that is simply stuck together with sticky tape and hopefully it will work.
I hated Bird-Man but I appreciate the acting and editing etc, this movie is bad on all angles and from every possible aspect. The film makers should be ashamed. Don't waste your money and time. Seriously, even if you're a true film lover and abstract-art house person, you simply will not cannot appreciate this piece of rubbish.
John Wick (2014)
Greatest action movie since Taken 1.
I just finished watching this movie.
I can only say that I tremendously enjoyed it from start to finish. It is one of Keanu Reeve's best performances since Speed and the movie itself is exceptionally good...I repeat. Exceptionally good.
If you liked Taken 1 (Liam Neeson) then you will love this. I would have to even say this is a notch better than Taken 1 as it has a lot more action and the fight sequences are very well done.
Anyone that says this movie is bad or complains about the plot or acting etc. needs a reality check. Action movies have never been known for their story lines and all the drama etc., it's an action flick so it won't win any big Oscars for acting etc. but it will give you a thrilling joyride.
I highly recommend this movie and congratulations to the film and crew on making this instant classic.
Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014)
A terrible movie aimed squarely at the Art House audience.
I knew this movie was not going to be an action-packed superhero movie which is fine, but oh my goodness this is purely art house material so if you're expected a good drama or action movie or anything in between, be prepared to yawn and cry all the way home due to boredom. It is the worst movie I have seen in my entirely life.
However, if you're one to appreciate the art house stuff then I suppose it does have a satirical viewpoint to it and will possibly appeal to you. I truly hope The Imitation Game will win against this movie as it sets precedence for awful movies to win awards.
I want my two hours back desperately. Will probably appeal to older audiences or film noir lovers.
The Interview (2014)
A masterpiece of film making
This movie has a great script, superb acting and the overall film is hilariously funny.
All the fanfare surrounding this movie and its release has only made it a much better movie to watch.
Congratulations to Sony Pictures, the directing team and its actors on a job well done.
If you want a lighthearted feel good comedy for the holidays, look no further this movie has it all! I will be watching it again.
Worth paying for to view online or see at a cinema near you. Freedom is great thing. Support this movie for its great merits and what it stands for; freedom of speech and self expression with no boundaries.
