A comic book movie that was designed to make people chuckle and laugh and where it did do that and did it okay...I felt like there was a lot of moments here just forced on for the sake of **** felt like this was a movie where it had to hit certain pop culture references for the sake of a laugh (Kid turns into adult with super powers and one of the first things he does is Floss because kids etc) It isnt a bad DCEU movie at all, It is one of the better ones for sure but personally felt a bit TOO forced on...
When you think of a modern classic animation feel good movie, I think it is safe to say that this always comes to mind or pops up in conversation at least. The movie that made Pixar what it is today and even after 15+ Years, STILL holds up. A really wonderful story and a range of brilliant characters really make this movie stand out. A true classic!
This is my all time favorite movie and it is for a number of reasons. The story is very heart warming and makes us all feel like kids again. The cast of child actors (now adults) works so well. We can all relate to one of those kids as we most probably ONE of those kids or knew someone in our group of friends like that! The setting and visuals which although have dated slightly are still very good and add a almost charm to it. It is a very entertaining movie from the off set and throughout! If you want a CLASSIC Spielberg story/movie then give this a go!
One of my big go to horror movies. This was the movie that kickstarted the Saw franchise and where the sequels would go for the gore/traps factor. The original was a lot more simpler than that. Two guys chained in a bathroom, with no idea how they got there and a dead body in the **** rest just flows from there. What makes this movie so scary is that it does not go for the gore or blood factor. It does not go for the jump scares or anything like that. It goes for the psychological horror. We get to see how they got there slowly unfold all the while they slowly start doubting each other. You feel alone watching this movie and by the end you are completely invested. The sequels are good but this is the best. By far.
A movie based on one of my personal heroes Freddie Mercury, "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a biopic based on his legendary career from where he started to Live Aid, This movie is a feast for Queen fans all over the world, Rami Malek IS Freddie and does it perfectly. The songs that are put in this are also great and if you are a queen fan, you will be singing along to each song as well. Even if you are not a Queen fan but was around at the time the movie is set, maybe give this a watch and you may end up liking it. It delves into the parts we as the public did not get to see and get to see the troubles Freddie had to go through to hide his way of life while also providing us all with beautiful music. This is HIS movie and it is a great one at that.
Yes, This movie is visually very beautiful and yes, if you do get a chance to see it in 3D obviously watch it like that as to me it seems like this movie was made for 3D. However, the story in this is just too predictable. There is some genuine moments that makes you sit back and wonder how it would feel like to be in that characters shoes but the story ruins it for me. It is one of those movies you don't watch for the story I guess. I just do not understand why it is SO POPULAR. I get its very pretty and all and I personally loved it the first time I saw it. But as time has gone on, it makes me wonder if it was more the spectacle of it being so big and immersive that got us all hooked on it.
This is the first and since then ONLY movie where I have actually fallen asleep in the cinema watching it when it originally came out. All these years later, I decided to give it another chance and although the acting isnt bad and the concept for the story is good enough, EVERYTHING else in this movie just was not good for me.
A classic heart warming movie, Shrek is one of those ones where you watch it once and you will have it stuck with you for ever. He is a loveable character and is someone alot of people (me included) can relate too. There are other characters here as well and all of them do a excellent job. The fact that this movie is based around classic fairy tale stories gives it such a nostalgic feeling but also puts enough of a fresh spin on it to make it new and unique. It hasn't got the sparkly sparkles that a Disney movie would have but that is what we are here to see! We are here to watch a ogre have a shower in the mud, but also go on a epic adventure and in doing so, find out there is more to life than just scaring people and that everyone, even ogres have layers...Like a onion.
This is a really great movie and NO you do not need to be a wrestling fan to enjoy this movie. (I am but that is besides the point). The point is, this movie is one of those feel good movies. Its a movie that I feel has elements in it that we can all relate to in some way. It is a movie which shows the ups and downs of life but thrown up against the back drop of a wrestling story. It doesn't go for action or big fighting scenes. It goes for something real. Which for a movie based around fake fighting, really says a lot.
I liked the first Jurassic World movie, I did not think it was bad and it was nice start to this new spin on a classic franchise. This sequel however was NOT so great. The fact that a lot of the movie doesn't even take place on the island made no sense, the characters were too generic and the "Evil corporation guys" were just too comical for me. The only redeeming part of this movie it seems was the dinosaurs and even that after a while for me became a bit too repetitive. Plus that ending....F**K THAT ENDING.
This movie I felt could of been so much more and yet I felt so disappointed by it and its a shame because if done right, I feel like this could of a been a real hit. You got two very talented lead actors with a interesting concept but it seems like it fails to execute what it wants to tell. I think this is just one of those movies where you hear about it, curious to see what its like and then by the end wonder why you decided to watch it.
Looking back at this movie, There's just some things here which compared to what came before it and what has come since, makes you wonder just why this movie and its sequel was ever made. Don't get me wrong, it isn't all bad. Andrew Garfield I personally felt was a good Peter Parker/Spider-Man and the story wasn't bad. This Spider-Man movie felt more like a comic book movie than maybe what the previous trilogy in the series had done. And I am all for that. But comparing it now to what we have gotten since this movie came out and looking back at what came before hand, makes me wonder why this movie even exists. If your really curious and want to see some new enemies from the classic comics then by all means give it a go, but it isn't a movie I would personally watch again.
As a BIG Quentin Tarantino fan, you could say I am a bit biased towards this movie, However even if I wasn't a fan of his work, I would still love this movie. It has a outstanding cast and it has so many memorable quotes/scenes that I cannot do it justice. It is a rollercoaster of a movie and one I say any and all should experience.
A true masterpiece of animation history and one of the greatest Disney movies of all time. There is not one bad thing about this movie it really is just amazing. The story is really well written and makes you sad, excited and happy at the right moments. The songs are memorable as well and I can listen to the music all day. A movie that will stand the test of time for sure.
This movie wasn't too bad. It was not great by any stretch of the imagination but it wasn't as bad as critics make it out to be. All three leads (Samuel L Jackson, James McAvoy and Bruce Willis) all do a great job in their own parts. The movie starts strong but I think if you go into this movie with high expectations (Like I did) you may come out a bit disappointed. By the 3rd act we knew what was going to happen and how it was going to end. Not bad but could of been more for me personally.
This is a VERY predictable movie with moments that make you wonder why they couldn't make this love story/comedy work. Yes Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis have great chemistry on screen and yet the "Comedy" is SO FORCED on that it took me out of the movie as quick as it got me into it. Very predictable story wise too. Just not a great one.
This is one of my all time FAVORITE movies. It is to me at least a complete masterpiece. Joaquin Phoenix carried this movie PERFECTLY and Robert De Niro as support among others just adds to it so well. Do not go into this movie expecting a Joker movie where you see Joker going around causing mayhem and destruction. Instead, Go into this movie as blind as you can and I think you will come out as I did, Amazed and also feeling uncomfortable due to how close to reality (I think) this movie can get sometimes. It is a movie designed to shock you which is what the Joker is all about. Thank you Todd Phillips and Thank YOU Joaquin Phoenix.
This was a movie if I am going to be honest, Didn't really know anything about. It was a movie that I really wasn't invested in but after being told by someone else how great it was, I had to see it for myself and it is a fantastic movie. It is very much a dark comedy but done in a superb way. It makes you chuckle and laugh at the moments where you wouldn't normally and yet you don't feel guilty or bad about it. Frances McDormand is incredible and the supporting cast as well (Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrison etc) also do a excellent job in helping tell this unique story.
A movie I came back to quite recently and forgot how brilliant it is! Seriously tense movie with great moments where you are on the edge of your seat the whole time. I don't want to say much more than that as it is a movie I always say to go into it blind. Great acting, great story, Great ending...90% of this coming from a singular Phone Booth!
In my group of friends/work colleagues I am one of the few who did not mind The Force Awakens or The last Jedi as much. Were they not as good as the original trilogy? Of course but I think it is safe to say that it will take ALOT for those movies to be topped. However I went into The Rise Of Skywalker with a bit of a small expectation. I knew the movie was not going to be fantastic but the way this movie was advertised as the "Finale to the Skywalker Saga" gave me somewhat a BIT of hope. Instead, What I feel we got was two separate movies rolled together into one. The first half seemed to be "Damage Control" to the previous movie (By this I mean trying to fix what people were not happy about) and the second half felt more like a rush to get to the end. It is a shame because so many people are invested into this story as they have fond memories of it from childhood. That's not to say the movie is terrible as I don't think it is but it is easily the worst in the sequel trilogy (In my opinion) It felt like there was no main story flowing through these movies but instead different ideas just thrown in together and putting the "Star Wars" Name on it to make some money.
My personal fav MCU Movie and what a movie it is. This entry has everything! You want comedy? You got it. You want a good story? You got it. You want great characters? You got it. I can't really say much more than that. If you feel the MCU can be a bit too serious, give this a go and you may come out quite shocked.
