F9 (2021)
Leave Your Brain at the Door
My wife really wanted to go see this movie - she's a big fan of the series. The movie has a lot of action, a lot of chases, a good sound track, etc. All things that can keep you in your seat and paying attention.
Unfortunately, the more you pay attention and think about things, the more this movie will lose you. Isaac Newton would be rolling around in his grave at the complete misrepresentation of basic laws of physics. And magnetics. And flight. And computers. And DNA. And, well, pretty much any other law of nature or reality.
So if you can turn your brain off and enjoy things, you'll probably like it. But if you start to think about any of it, you'll probably get annoyed at the lack of effort put into making you believe or care about any of it.
The Tomorrow War (2021)
Incredibly stupid but somewhat entertaining
If humanity as as stupid as the people in this movie, then its destruction is deserved.
The movie can be entertaining - the action scenes, the pace, etc. The acting is ok, a bit overdone and preachy at times, but not bad. Been a big fan of Yvonne Strahovski since the series "Chuck" and thought she was good here as well.
But I tend to have issues with movies that have no logical foundation, and this is one of those. One of the stupidest time-travel foundations ever, incredibly moronic science and scientists, and some of the more pathetic military strategies ever used in a movie. I mean here are aliens that shoot claw bullets that in one scene knock someone 20 feet off the ground, and in the next scene are stopped by drywall. And apparently they can send weapons and people into the future, and choose to send old people with automatic rifles - they might as well send puppies with water pistols.
I just wish there was some logic. If you have a brain, you'll probably be wondering WTF throughout ever scene.
A Star Is Born (2018)
don't understand these reviews
I'm a little lost on how this movie is getting so many high reviews. Its a good looking movie, but the characters are relatively uninteresting and the best thing about the music is that they're not always singing.
It just seemed to drag on and on. And on. And on.
