Watchable only because of Cage and Joel, their performances deserve better movie
29 July 2023
I don't know how this movie got made, who wasn't bored to death reading that script, this is just bad lazy writing that can't be made into a good thriller even with the actors giving their best, the movie doesn't look cheap it's a decent looking movie at least the director and the staff weren't as lazy as the Writer I liked some of music choices but sometimes it felt the director had nothing to fill the movie with other than road shoots and a random song, I only continued watching for Cage and Joel I'm sure anyone who is not a fan of them like myself will turn off this movie 20 minutes in. I think Nic Cage and Joel Kinnaman deserved a better movie.

You People (2023)
1/10
Not even a movie
30 January 2023
I don't know how they got Eddie Murphy to be in this long boring sitcom episode, everything about this movie feels like a bad modern sitcom. Everything is very weird and forced everyone is just being awkward like they never interacted with anyone from a different culture plus the people working on this movie did not bother to know anything about Islam or get a Muslim to be involved with this movie in anyway. It's supposed to be a comedy but unfortunately no one is even trying to be funny everyone is awkward, everything is so serious, the cast could have made a watchable 'Meet the parents' but they didn't care about the comedy at all.

The Old Way (2023)
6/10
Disappointing but watchable
16 January 2023
The old way is very predictable with very little action,makes you feel like you watched it before dozens of times and doesn't deliver on its tag line The First Nicolas Cage Western because this movie does not have crazy Cage or Oscar Cage it have old Cage it is disappointing that this is the first time we see Nic Cage as a cowboy but still the only interesting factor in this movie is his chemistry with his daughter Ryan Armstrong , she was on the same level as him , there are two scenes where they talks about fitting in the society and how they don't feel anything that was the best part of the movie. I also have to give credit for the soundtrack it definitely deserves a better western just as Cage.

Me Time (2022)
1/10
Nothing memorable nothing funny and zero chemistry
26 August 2022
This is a Netflix movie so I didn't have high expectations at all. I like both actors find them funny and was really excited to see what they are doing together but this movie is a big disappointment, there isn't a single memorable scene or joke from this movie and I did not really laugh during watching it I smiled a couple of times due to my love for the actors but not the jokes itself. This is just a very lame very lazy content from Netflix plus Mark Walberg and Kevin Hart should never work together again they have zero chemistry on the screen maybe this would have been a little bit funnier with The Rock just like the previous movies he did with Kevin which this movie tried to copy a lot from. I don't think there are any thing good about this movie nor original I don't recommend.

Wrong Place (2022)
5/10
Bruce Willis worked hard considering his health condition
16 July 2022
This movie is bad but Bruce willis was actually in it unlike the last few movies sold with his face and name and only feature for him few minutes so this is only thing that movie deserves credit for, the script is horrible nothing makes sense many plot holes and characters taking unreasonable decisions the whole movie and there were a lot of cringe lines, the movie didn't have any real action scenes there were a lot of shot guns and two simple amateur fights then the acting was below average again bruce willis did his best considering his circumstances but the rest of the cast are just bad and didn't care enough about this movie and I don't blame them I don't think anyone cared about making this movie.

Toy Story 4 (2019)
1/10
Easily the worst of the franchise and maybe the worst pixer movie ever
5 July 2022
It's the same thing over and over again, this is like someone remade the first movie but without it's charm or tenderness, this movie is just pointless boring with zero depth or emotions I remember nearly crying watching the first and third movie this franchise had a perfect finale but they ruined it for the money by this cash grab movie. I will pretend that this movie was never made it's very forgettable anyway.

Very disappointing. great idea,mediocre at best movie
23 April 2022
Within the first few minutes into this film you will realize there's a great filmmaker behind everything is lame and lazy. Compared to other recent cage films like Mandy, pig or even Willy's wonderland the cinematography, Editing and soundtrack are very lame and unoriginal, the action scenes are the worst part of the movie cheap with no tension and badly edited the best part of the movie is the chemistry of Nic Cage and Pedro Pascal which is enough to make it watchable even enjoyable for their fans.

Pursuit (I) (2022)
1/10
Very complicated and hard to keep up with
21 February 2022
This is a b action movie that takes itself so serious with a complicated story ends up being boring, Action scenes are cheap and uncreative just lots of guns, Everyone in the movie is miscast the roles does not fit the actors, horrible editing and sound mixing and I'm not an expert but it's so bad anyone can notice it, simply this a direct to DVD Bruce Willis movie but he was too busy making other horrible movies they hired John Cusack instead and he gives a lazy sleepy performance just like willis does in his movies lately.

Jojo Rabbit (2019)
2/10
Good premise but very silly execution
20 February 2022
There are jokes but it's dated and unfunny, there are dramatic moments but the movie is too silly to take it serious, the actors are not given much to work with the kid seemed confused all the time, Rebel Wilson and Scarlett Johnson probably shoot their roles in a couple of days maximum but Sam Rockwell gives by far the best performance he is simply best thing about the movie in general I was more interested in his character than anything else I'm kind of bitty that this very good premise was wasted on such try hard to be funny film.

A CNN report with stupid jump scares and few uncreative kills
16 October 2021
This is the worst movie in the franchise no suspense, no thriller, it never made me feel that the main characters are in danger and I just watched it and I barely remember it because there's nothing creative or new, not a single good action sequence, not a single good kill and the characters are so lame and lifeless you don't even care about them. Overall it just lazy filmmaking and easy money this franchise is dead.

Good visuals Bad script
18 September 2021
A movie that have an amazing soundtrack, extraordinary cinematography, colors, sets really amazing shots but no story that's why understand many people didn't like it but it is very well made movie by Sion Sono but if he will make more English movies he should pick better screenwriter the whole problem in this movie is the script but everything else was good that's why I enjoyed the movie and any crazy Nic Cage fan will enjoy it.

Good story to tell but very poor filmmaking
23 July 2021
The cinematography in this movie is horrible like so bad it's annoying to look at sometimes, the movie needed a good actress to carry it but unknown leading lady is very amateur with zero charisma especially if she gonna be in the same frame as someone like Al pacino who is as expected is the best part of this cheap movie even though he wasn't trying, yet it could have been a lot better movie in the hands of a talented editor but it obviously was made worse in the editing room but at the end bad filmmaking did not ruin my interest in the true story.

Pig (I) (2021)
10/10
A Human Movie
20 July 2021
I'm not gonna lie I also wanted to watch another Mandy or John Wick but Pig gives us a totally different experience that I really enjoyed, this is a movie about us humans it's about how we react to loss, the memories we all have with certain meals, the choices we take in our lives. I really loved it and will watch it again. The strongest aspect of the movie is Nicolas Cage's performance which his first natural performance since Joe (2013), this is a movie where Nic Cage doesn't beat people up it's a movie where he express a lot of thoughts only by one look. Another strong aspects are the cinematography and the editing there are a lot of big budget movies that do not have get them as good as pig did.

A B Movie with one of the best soundtracks in a horror film ever
13 February 2021
It's a weird little movie with an interesting concept that's enough to keep you watching for less than 90 minutes and a leading actor who can carry the movie and be the best part '' along side the music '' of it even without saying one single word. This movie would have been better with a bigger budget and more focus on Cage instead of young actors playing undeveloped characters but with clearly very small budget, they succeed to make a Fun B Movie with a great soundtrack as they intended.

Perfect Family Movie
25 November 2020
This movie is spectacular with amazing set pieces, delightful colors and creatures it doesn't matter how old you are you can't take your eyes away from it. if you enjoyed the first movie, you will definitely love this one and obviously the animation is better especially the facial expressions of the characters are very unique. The cast is very funny especially Emma Stone and Nicolas Cage even though their characters weren't developed from the first one but they still very charming. The story is very simple as expected from a DreamWorks movie but the well designed action and the chemistry between the characters were good enough to keep you invested. I had so much fun watching this movie with my family I recommend watching it on a big screen if you can't catch it in the theater

The Oath (2018)
6/10
could have been way better
12 September 2020
Ike Barinholtz proved with it that he can't be a leading man I love the guy but he is not charismatic enough especially along side Tiffany Haddish who is more charming and charismatic, the movie should have focused more on her character and the other supporting characters, the movie as whole was very good in the first and second act then it just turned into a different movie with no build up it's like the climax of different movie

A new low for my favorite action star
22 May 2020
Even though I watched it with very low expectations but it was able to disappoint me, with this kind of movies you only hope for action but the director wasn't able to deliver any good action sequences through out the movie adding the immature screenwriting and really bad acting especially from the lead actor and the daughter made this movie annoying and hard to watch but at least Bruce Willis showed up for this one, go watch Hostage or Trespass instead of this cheap

Some people just hate nicolas cage
16 March 2020
This is one of the best science fiction movies and it should have got more appreciation but many people wanted it to be bad because of Nicolas Cage who is giving a solid preformace in the movie, also the supporting cast specially the kids are really good, the cinematography is interesting, the soundtrack is great
