I Am Nobody (2023– )
10/10
Amazing Show my first Chinese drama
1 October 2023
I heard of the anime but I just kinda watched this on the spur of the moment.

Amazing show beautiful,fun,heartfelt,cool,and awesome.

I enjoyed this so much and how the story wraps up.

The actors,cgi artist,music team everyone really did a great job.

This show is so much fun and goofy at time but has so much heart and made me cry a few times hahaha.

I love the theme songs.

The first episode had me hooked from the beginning.

I am so happy this was my first chinese show.

I watched many Japanese,Korean, and other shows but I love the vibe and way this show is.

Its amazing to see everyone has they own way of telling amazing stories.

I truly hope people give this a chance and truly enjoy the ride.

At times is a bit slow and drawn but it still gets back to the plot.

Everything has its place and meaning.

I need NDT Express in my life.

Feng BaoBao is so beautiful aswell.

I hope this gets a season 2.

Tommy Got Them Hands !!!!
26 September 2023
I am watching over all of the jason movies. My mom watched them when I was a kid. This is the one I actually remember my mom watching when I was around 4yrs old bc of a death scene in the john.

My grandma had an out house so that shook me for years my mother has passed so this is a nice way to remember spending time with her.

This isnt the greatest but the movies still had a lot of fun along the way.

Just gotta say Tommy got them hands.

See for yourself.

Just got to fill out the rest.

Interesting to see how many actors started in horror films.

I saw kevin bacon, and some others i cant remember at the moment.

Pathaan (2023)

This movie is for the fans
24 April 2023
I dont care about all these bad reviews.

This movie delivers on the hype.

It is shot beautifully and the cast brings the hype.

There are some major universe building.

KABIR/TIGER/PATHAAN

LETS GO !!!

Im so happy to see Indian Cinema building their own film universe like this.

It has some cgi scenes that could use work but I can brush that aside.

I haven't been this excited for a film in a while.

I wont spoiler but I suggest you watch Ek Tiger, War, then this.

Then the hype will be understood.

You dont gotta take my word but this film is of a higher quality than most.

The plot is good enough.

If you are use to indian story telling

3 to 4 acts

Present/Past/Present/Climax

It can be hard to follow sometimes but just enjoy the ride.

The Menu (2022)

Amazing Film in my opinion
31 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This film is refreshing in this day and age of over saturated CGI films that bastardizd source material.

All of this is in my opinion, bc I see mixed reviews.

I am not easily stopped by new media.

From the opening to close of this film. I remained intrigued and enjoyed the creativity of it all.

This is the first film I have seen with the main actress and I enjoyed her performance.

Speaking as a retired chef. It is an unforgiving industry and all people do is take take take.

I understand the view of the Chef.

Thats what made my understanding and feelings resonate.

I worked from cook to chef and it is transformative. From happiness to a more refined and sharpness.

A scene in the movie really touched me and I found it to be true.

There is a dish that would make any chef who truly have passion shed a tear

So in saying and rambling on.

Give this film a shot and enjoy.

It was filmed beautifully and I love the shot/ descriptions of the food.

Great film in this day and age.

Everyone did a great job !!

Atsuko Okatsuka: The Intruder (2022 TV Special)
10/10
Great Special !! SPLASH MOUNTAIN !!!
11 December 2022
I enjoyed it because I saw Atsuko 2 or 3 years ago here and there via a complication special and social media. Even though comedy is a bit based on taste. I think this was very good for the style and tone.

The structure of the way the jokes were told and how the crowd was engaged made me enjoy it even more.

Everything is full circle.

Atsuko and her family will always put a smile on your face if you check out her insta or tik toki dont have it but I assume its the same as her insta.

Give it a watch.

She is genuine and I can relate to her story as being an immigrant in a new lady.

I am happy to see her success growing.

Gun & Rose (1992)
8/10
A Solid Film
5 November 2022
If you are just looking for straight action this is not that kinda film but it still have cool scenes. The story and character seem to have hit me in an emotional way. You feel for the characters. Give the movie a break. It came out in a time with lots of films like this but there is more to it that kung fu and guns.

I found myself just at a standstill for some scenes. Now the editing and pacing can be a bit meh but its still worth a watch for a balanced film touch many genres.

I love seeing andy lau do his thing as always. So that was a major plus for me and i ended up really liking an actress after seeing her role in this.

Prey (I) (2022)
8/10
I saw the first 2 predators and had the VHS. Its still a interesting watch.
12 August 2022
Everyone needs to first keep in mind this is PREY not Predator. It is a story from another angle that can open up a world of possibilities for the franchise. Imagine seeing different films from other fighters angles.

They should have marketed it as a side story/prequel

Now on to the film....

The movie was good I like the approach.

You can't judge the movie on 1 and 2.

This is a different tone and vibe.

How you approach the film will let you either enjoy it or hate it.

Give it a chance with the thought its not a guns out, terminator style, I am getting to old for the lethal weapon Shhh... lol

Its an action adventure film.

I have some issues but its still not that bad.

One is the reveal of the predator and then the main character with just some of the things she did that caused some things that didn't need to happen.

Still i see alot of complaining about a woman lead. This isn't as bad as other woke films were men are stupid or girl power... this is far from that. Older movies like mulan comes to mind and other films show a young woman wanting to prove herself and that she doesn't have to fall to the stereotype of what a woman has to do in a society. I know this is in every other film but this is accurate to me atleast for the setting.

I see some people mad at her height, her gender, her ethnicity, and so on.

Man people are something.... If you dont like the film dont watch it or buy it.

They had so many movies in the 70s/80s/90s/00s people hated but became cult classics a decade later. Not saying this is one of those films but people gotta chill.

In my humble opinion.

Ghostbusters (1984)
10/10
Amazing Film
3 August 2022
This film is worth all the hype.

I just got to sit down and watch it in its entirety for the first time.

The movie was so easy to watch. I kinda forgot what watching a good film was like. Lol

The 80s/90s gave birth to so many iconic characters/films.

Beetlejuice,ghostbusters,terminator,predator,back to the future,star wars,home alone and the list really goes on.

Its sad that in the 2000s to now. You saw the decline in movie magic.

I love older films bc it took creativity not for the story alone but the execution in how it was made.... sets,costumes,props,locations,cameras....etc.

Its nice to see movies without so much political/social drama to ruin the purpose of what a movie is for. Fun and entertainment.

This is worth a watch if you enjoy good movies and aren't so consumed with CG.

Great pacing,characters,plot,mystery,comedy,action,

It made me feel like a kid again watching this.

If your were born before the 2000s... Find some good 90s and 80s movies and have fun.

Wrath of Man (2021)
10/10
Poetic !! I enjoyed it
5 June 2022
Warning: Spoilers
If you have seen Guy films before you know whats up.

Great movie saying the films coming out now a days are a bit here and there.

I know the back and forth can be confusing and also a bit off putting.

The film was spilt into parts/chapters and leaves some things to mystery.

I want to see the original.

All I can say is give it a shot.

Its one line with many interconnecting parts that lead to one ending.

I saw someone talked about him and the son relationship. He cared for him despite not being in his life all the time.

He is clearing a sweeper/cleaner/painter someone who does not have the luxury of having a normal life.

The film is poetic in the stance that by fate or coincidence everything happens. Plus the ending of the film I find it powerful. Pound for pound. A true tale of revenge.

A nice change of pace from all the superhero stuff but I do love it.

I just need some one off stories haha.

So with that being said I hope you enjoy it with an open mind and different prospective.

My humble opinion.

Peep Time (2020)
10/10
I Love This Show !!!
5 April 2022
It is lighthearted and came to me at a low time in my life. Plus it was released on my birthday.

The first Japanese Sitcom format I have ever seen.

This show is funny for fans who get the comedy. The main character is like Mr Beans but is his own style.

Trust me give this a chance if you love Japanese comedy.

The overall message of the show is laughter can bring us through our low point in life.

Its interesting in between the show are segments of tense situations and they see a video of the main character story that causes them to laugh and keep them occupied just enough till they make through it.

This show is gold.

It saved my life.

My fiancee called off our engagement and my life was just like blah.

I saw this and truly made me laugh and feel a type of happiness again.

Thank you for this show and Thank You for those that took the time to read this.

Netflix and their endings
23 May 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This movie had actors /actresss, the budget, the director and they still messed it up.

I had high hopes but lost interest midway through.

The script seem incomplete with some things between some characters .

The ending though... they could have left things with the killing of the character but then no Netflix have to take emotional value and throw it to the wind and set up for a part 2.

Netflix have a problem. With making a great ending and then addng a little after piece that its like why ?!.

Its like being gulity and winning a court case and then right at the end when youre about to win you confess to the crime.

If they let me get invovled in the movie process I can fix all the movies and shows lol

Sometimes less is more quality over quantity.

I didnt expect I would laugh but I did

Black Cat (1991)
10/10
I enjoyed it
5 March 2021
I never saw the original Nikita but they had small scenes that I feel add to the overall bigger picture from a film making/art point of view. Keep in mind it is the 90s HK film...it is just that style with this story. I enjoyed the actress and actors aswell. Its not the greatess film but I enjoyed it more than some films I have seen today. Classic films have a feeling and vibe that makes it an experience. It has many flaws but I found something I liked in it

Garo: Makaisenki (2011– )
9/10
A enjoyable addition
19 January 2021
The plot of it is.... A masked man appears and curses Kouga, everytime he wears the armor it kills him slowly. He must fight his way to uncover the masked man and break the curse. Garo was such a hit when It finish came out I was happy to find out about this and the later things to come. If you enjoyed the first you will love this one. Plus watch the movies in the proper order to enjoy Kouga's Journey.

Supercop 2 (1993)
9/10
I think itsa good film not great but good
24 December 2020
Warning: Spoilers
This is a loose sequal just using its characters from the last film. The story between Mrs Yeoh and her love interest is very interesting. He has to lead a double life. Jackie Chan and Eric Tsang Cameo is Comedic Gold its not meant to be serious. Plus if you are watching American releases / dubbed of an HK film some scenes may be removed/Altered by the company.

Originals are always better.

I Loved This
30 November 2020
I binged the first season in one day. Its unexpectedly great. The way it shows the movies inbetween and the rich history and time in all of it makes this a great show. Plus the returning cast makes this the best continuous of a movie ive ever seen. Its a must watch for new and old fans of the film. The character devlopment and story is on point. P.s. it has tons of funny bits. It doesnt seem forced at all either.

If You Love HK Films from the 80s and 90s
30 October 2020
This is a must watch for anyone who enjoys HK cop films. It is exciting and enjoyable a bit bloody sometimes but not too bad. The characters go well together. The story is easy to follow but a bit fast pace at times. Situations are one after the next. I love it though.

The Protector (1985)
8/10
Good to see a different style of JC Film
9 October 2020
Even though im reading that they misuse Jackie for this. I think it shows his grit and change of style. This film surpised me alot and it was enjoyable just going in not know what to expect. So dont watch thinking its a kung fu film but a cop film. I can see the undertones of Rush Hour in this movie. They even reused a scene in Rush Hour 2

Gang Dong Won !!! This Film is the real Resident Evil
5 September 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I understand why some people are mad but this isnt a direct sequel to Train To Busan. It exist in the same universe though.

The action is pretty good. CGI is a bit like why but I could understand if it has to do with Covid. Still the CGI makes it feel like the Resident Evil games even more.

This is still a cool story building up the universe. The 2 daughters in this film are my favorite characters next to Gang Dong Won Character.

I am happy with how this film turned out.Story wise I have been watching Korean movies for years decades even. The ending was a twist that is far from the norm in a K movie.

I loved the film. So please watch this with out judging it so harshly.

Its not bad but i understand its nothing like Train To Busan but it still pulled my heart strings every now and again.

Great Film for fans of JC classic works
14 August 2020
This movie was a surpise... it was different from JC other films and funny. This shouldnt be compared to his other works. It has like a Charlie Chap,USA meets HK vibe and the slap stick style fighting is entertaining with JC style.

Its a unique film if viewed as a film without JC other films as a mold.
