I Am Legend (2007)
6/10
Nothing special
26 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Not the dog!!!! I always subtract points if some dog getting killed or die!!!

So if we are talking about the plot of the movie... the idea is good but it is not enough discovered here. It is like we do know not enough to understand this world and these characters.

And the ending is weak and I understand that this movie is based on a book... *I discovered moths after I have watched this movie that there is some other option of ending!!! And I have not seen it. And I am not sure that I want to)) And! I do not know which ending is the right one (from the book).

Good that the movie isn't too long)

The Mandalorian (2019– )
7/10
What about the hype??
16 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
I don't understand the hype about this show...

I mean it's not bad but it's not that good) It's messy and kinda random.

The good thing is that we have one mini-story for each episode... But props are visible, as the make-up.

I get that we got to know better about the universe and Mandalorian creed, and the baby is cute (but looks like a doll)... But dialogues are so stupid from time to time. Relationships here evolve randomly and quickly (f.e. With that woman in village). I have so many thoughts about this series and I can't say it's amazing as many people say so. It's OK.

And the second season is the best of the three.

Glass (2019)
6/10
I need an explanation
31 March 2024
Sksksks what the actual duck I just watched?))

I mean James McAvoy has done his role just great! So many characters in that small amount of time! And so believable! Bravo!

But what about the plot?)) Is this a superhuman movie? Or conspiracy theories? What is it about?) I really need an explanation!

And we still don't have a sequel? (I don't know if we are supposed to have one, but it would be so logical to actually have something after these events)

This movie is so cringe... (with some kind of philosophy of course but I didn't get much of it))) So I'm still waiting for an explanation. Text me smbd.

Suspicion (1941)
4/10
Not THAT good
22 March 2024
It is not such an interesting movie.

The previous Hitchcock's work (The Lodger) was really gripping to watch.

This movie has a kinda predictable, I would say obvious/cliche plot and the whole idea actually. Maybe it is because I was watching it in 2020s, so maybe at that time this movie was interesting, progressive and fresh. It is not now))) And of course this kind of directing looks "not enough" good even though I understand that this movie was released in 1941.

But! I think that an alternative ending by Hitchcock will be better for this movie than what we have on all this streaming platforms.

Hellboy (2004)
5/10
Not enouggh for the present
9 October 2023
I can't even imagine how cool this movie was back in 2004)) But now... everything except for the general idea, in this movie, is bad)) especially special effects and makeup)) so if we have to say something about this movie for teens, I would say: "it's kinda cringe!".

I mean the characters are good (the idea of them)! But the plot became boring after 30 mins. And this love story line... More funny and cringe again than it supposed to be. But I cheered for them))

So my score for this movie is more for the history of cinematography and Guillermo's filmography) Because for it's time it was real good!

Oppenheimer (I) (2023)
7/10
It's hard, strong, loud and chaotic
31 July 2023
I'm writing this a day after I watched this movie so I think it through)

this movie is hard, strong, loud and chaotic.

Nolan likes to play with time parallels so that's the thing that confused me in some way while watching.

After watching you have a lot of questions about Oppenheimer, project, his kids life, other scientists future etc. It means you have to make a research after. And for me this is about plot holes, because I don't want this quantity of questions after watching a movie.

"Oppenheimer" isn't the best Nolan's movie, for me it's not even in top 3 (maybe even 5; incomparable with "Inception" or "Interstellar") but directing is obviously good.

The cast is AMAZING (*love Matt Damon*), well played, incredible sound work, good picture quality.

Conclusion: movie isn't that great and interesting, it's good, maybe will rewatch one more time.

Rings (2017)
5/10
Cringe
28 July 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I didn't watch the previous parts when I watched this one, but this movie has no good special effects.

And about the plot - I still don't understand the idea to copy the video every time... can't you just show it to somebody, or just sent it? Why do you need to copy it every time?

+here we have typical/obvious plot development (like when the teacher gives his studies to students who, of course, don't know all the details and they have to test them on themselves).

After watching I had a lot of questions about the plot, so a lot of things stayed unresolved and incomprehensible(

Still don't understand why this trilogy got so famous.

Cringe Star Wars movie
17 July 2023
Warning: Spoilers
While watching I thought about one thing - that this movie/plot is a little bit cringe))

It has of course great picture quality but the plot...)) They killed everyone and the main thing/idea of the two hours movie - is the possibility (!!!) of destroying death star...

I understand that this part is about sacrifice for the future, but there are too many "sacrifice" acting.

After the "Andor" series this one is so upsetting because we know how it could/would be (plot and acting etc).

And I don't get why they put Mads Mikkelsen in this tiny role🤔 (Are we going to watch the whole movie with/about him?)

Dune (2021)

What is happening?
1 July 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Big shoutout to all people who made visual work here. It's absolutely stunning: the CGI, acting, costumes, makeup, etc.

Sounds/music are great too.

BUT!

Wtf is happening in the movie?)) I got that this movie is based on a book and it's only the first part, but I haven't read it, so I need more explanations.

Where are we? Why? Why does this guy have some kind of abilities/powers? Why fat the guy killed his father? WHAT IS GOING ON AND WHY?

They may explain some things later but for now, it's really chaotic and partly illogical.

*some fights are choreographed really badly for this level of the movie (you can literally see that some actors just stay and wait to kick)

Typical Indiana Jones
29 June 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Such a typical Indiana Jones movie! And that is because it has so many plot cliches, so many banal twists (if you can say so about twists), stupid dialogues (that make no much sense), and, of course, bad CGI)) (please start to pay workers more money!)

The movie s not as bad as it could be, so it's simply OK. But it is a little prolonged. I save myself from sleeping twice! Once because of predictable actions, and the second time because of unnecessary plot details.

But the movie has some interesting details and the authors had the guts to kill an important/famous character! Which is good for so big franchise!

Amazing animation but movie is prolonged...
17 June 2023
Amazing animation but movie is prolonged...

The movie is about two and a half hours long and you have to understand that it doesn't have a proper ending (no denouement). So for me, this movie is kinda prolonged.

Maybe it is not for cinemas, it could be more comfortable to watch at home (from the first part, than this and then the last one), because you would have an opportunity to pause, think etc.

So I have to say that this animation work is hard to perceive and analyze at the same time (in a really good way). The animation here is indescribable, it is so amazing, different, and various!!!

Air (I) (2023)
8/10
I love Nike
10 June 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Good cast. But I think Affleck is not really a good suit for this role. Their duo with Matt Damon is pretty obvious for now, so it looks like they just wanted to make one more together)

This movie is emotional, pretty directed, atmospheric. The storytelling is good. It is actually really hard to make a story where everyone know how it ends))

I found really interesting that fact that they never showed us "Michael" in this movie. It's interesting to discover why)

I love Nike, I love their story! But why they didn't tell us about Sonny career after this deal?) Because he left Nike for Adidas))

So dramatic and funny
3 June 2023
This movie is cute, emotional, sensual, epic, funny, and dramatic! And all of that at the same time and in two and a half hours! I mean there is a great balance between "I would cry" and "Oh my God, how funny is that!".

The Computer-G Imagery here is pretty good and directing in general is entertaining to watch and learn from it)

So many plot holes from previous parts and gestalts were closed by this part.

In this movie, they made so many new creatures and possibilities for future films (not only Guardians of the galaxy's)! This trilogy is probably the best from the MARVEL universe!) Legendary.

Looper (2012)
7/10
Good one
9 May 2023
I think that all time-travel movies are good) because of the theme, you know)) And especially with well-known actors/cast

this one is kinda twisted and the ending could be better, and it looks like there had to be one more part... So the ending kinda disappointed me, I excepted much more!

But the plot is ok, it missed some details but for a one-time watch is good.

And I knew that the director asked the makeup artists to make Joseph Gordon-Levitt look more like Bruce Willis... But unfortunately, I didn't see that similarity( They for sure changed Joseph's look, but he just not like himself there.

Better than the first part
9 May 2023
For me - better than the first part. In this part, the ending is kinda boring, but everything else - is good!

I mean first one was kinda unexpected and because of that cringe, but when you in a way get used to it - it becomes interesting. I really enjoyed the cast in this part and the plot of course.

The first part was some kind of boring too, but this is more entertaining to watch. Except for the ending, I think it is more because of the predictable ending not like bad composed.

This movie is for sure original and unique work. You should watch it to extend your perception of movies and scripts.

Childish
5 March 2023
Really childish story.

For me this movie is a big reminder of "bicentennial man" movie, and I prefer it than this.

This one is kinda boring and predictable. I don't really relate to it compared to "bicentennial man", it wasn't emotional for me at all, just a little bit of irritation

I felt asleep twice😬 I understand the hype near it in early 2000s cause it really was some kind of breakout and progress in technologies. But not for me watching it in 2023

It's pity that this movie is more popular than "bicentennial man"😢 so I wouldn't recommend you to watch it

And what about Jude Law?))?)? I mean his look and work at all in this project.

The Hustler (1961)
6/10
For the 60s - great!
27 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Good movie. For the 60s - great! Really great shots and image! And the sound is surprisingly good!

But I didn't get what is the main line - the love line or his career?

Cause I thought, from the description, that movie would be about his pool career, the drama in it and etc. In the end, I thought that this love line is strange and understanding... So the ending is kinda twisted and disappointing... But I knew there gonna be some death!!!

And I have to say that acting sometimes was not cool... It was overacting actually, from Paul Newman mostly...

But...P. S.: Paul Newman is soooo hot!!!!!!

This movie is the reason why I don't like musicals
20 January 2023
Typical musical. And the reason why I don't like this genre.

I wasn't impressed with Butler as many of you (his singing was kinda bad), but I must say Wilson here is really unexpected and well (I liked his singing tho). For me, for some reason, was unexpected to see him like a good guy...

I think we all understand that the story is real cringe (that man wants woman to be his just to have her)... And so was the whole Gerard Butler performance for me. It is for sure not his genre and not his role. One of the worse his role I would say.

But the movie is beautiful and some songs were pleasant to hear!

Black Mirror (2011– )
6/10
Why do you people like it so much?
7 January 2023
I tried to watch this show years ago - so I watched the whole first episode and stopped. Cause it was a real cringe.

Now I decided to give a show second chance, 'cause you know - everyone says how good it is.

As a result - they made a really bad choice to make that episode the first one.

Generally - nice idea, I get the philosophy of how the technologies affect our life. However only emotion I get from this show - is irritation! I'm just pissed off)

The only two great things that carry this show are acting and CGI.

So I don't get why all people like it so much... But I may give it another chance.

In Time (2011)
7/10
Overestimated at the beginning
20 November 2022
Intriguing start, I mean I thought it's gonna be a really good movie, because of an original idea. But it turned out a little bit prolonged in the middle because it became kinda obvious and I just wanted the plot to grow, but it was kinda slow. I wanted more energy or something.

So the movie seems kinda overestimated, it gave hope and then partly smash it. But still, the idea is great! So many senses! And metaphors that time it is all we have and we have to appreciate it and do our best.

And I have to say that Justin Timberlake is not that bad in the movie, he has done a pretty good job!!!!!

House of the Dragon (2022– )
7/10
More interesting than GOT
13 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
More interesting for me than Game of thrones. But this one is more chaotic in 10 episodes we jumped three-four times in time... It was kinda hard to remember and then understand who is who, before they got named.

And of course House Of Dragons as Game Of thrones has a lot of violence scenes, porn scenes and tricky endings (like last 15 minutes in the last episode))

But for sure it well-made! Mostly... I mean I have seen some bloopers and noticeable CGI but thanks for nice dragons. And of course it was not enough of them - we want more)£

Next season must be goood) based on last episode)) and I hope it wouldn't be so chaotic.

Fall (I) (2022)
6/10
Could be better or worse))
31 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This is kind of a movie for one time watch.

I thought it could be worse... Because it's actually partly dumb at some key points, it has stupid dialogues and some bloopers too and it's mostly unrealistic because of that all...

But it's really tense! I mean the situation is kinda freaky... So you can watch this movie once) a And you have to know that it's kinda cringy and disgusting, especially at the end...

And I don't have any idea why Jeffrey Dean Morgan is in this...? He is a producer or something? Cause he has been in the movie for like 5 minutes...

And it doesn't base on a real story!!

Great but...
24 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The amazing and unbelievable real story! And it's a great movie too... but it's kinda prolonged... I got a little bored for an hour and then 20 minutes after.

One of the biggest minuses is that we don't have a happy story at the end. I mean I waited for happy Chris, on his new job... When he is like years working there, he has a big house and happy kids and a wife with him. I mean we know that in real life he has all that, so I expected a little part of that in a movie. Like for 5-10 minutes at least... Instead of that text...

But we got that scene in a church... And a lot of shots in cafes...

Factory Girl (2006)
8/10
Good one
16 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Can't say anything bad about this movie. It has it's own aesthetic and mood so it's kinda strange but in a good way!

It's a sad real story and it's really overwhelming how most of the artists are using (used) a lot of drugs and alcohol to create...(

Of course, it's about women who had a really tough life and complicated fortune!

I can't say I would recommend it to watch but if you catch it on a tv don't switch the channel)

*and it's so fun to watch Jimmy Fallon)) I mean for me he is so similar everywhere where I see him. He is so in the right place in late night show) cause drama movies it's not for him)))

Ray (I) (2004)
8/10
Great movie about a great man!
6 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Great movie about a great man!

None of that two and half hours was an excess.

And OMG - Jamie Foxx is a discovery for me by this movie! I mean, I thought of him like a comedy actor, don't know why. But this transformation! He has done a great job!

-2 points I got just because of bad decorations and makeup (in some places).

Music is so perfect and it's so enough of it in this picture.

Of course, this movie is not only about Ray Charles, it's about #blacklivesmatter, about people with disabilities, and the idea that you can everything if you really want to!

I would recommend this movie to everyone.
