The Witcher (2019)
Very well executed but needs a few improvements
I had high hopes for The Witcher and to be honest I am not disappointed. Very well made series a bit short for my taste. They could've done a couple of more episodes.
Henry Cavill is the perfect actor for the role of the Witcher. His performance is amazing. I hope we will get to see more fighting from him in the next season.
Here comes the bad part of the review.
As a fan of the franchise I cannot neglect the fact that his medallion looks nothing like the one described in the books or in the game. The wolf head shakes and glimmers when beasts are near or magic has been used. We never saw that and in my eyes the function of the medallion is used to complete Geralt's character.
Another thing - Triss looks nothing like the Triss described in the books or shown in the game. I could understand that some secondary characters can be left to the maker's interpretation, but Triss. COME ON.
Let's not forget the two swords. This is also an important part of Geralt's character and fighting style. It is clearly written in the books that he uses two swords depending on what Geralt is fighting.
These things do not make any difference for the people who have never read the books or played the game but for the hardcore fans this is important.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
5 stars only for the visuals
I decided not to take in consideration the reviews before going to see the movie. I went in the theater with hope that this would be another movie which the fans misunderstood. BOY WAS I WRONG.
I honestly regret spending the money for the ticket and the snacks.
They have brought down the main character to the level of a Disney princess like Mulan or Cinderella. Utterly disappointing. The other characters are also on the same level. The dialog is also on the same Disney-animation level.
I am glad that the saga is over, however I am not glad it ended this way. Many of the scenes could've been rewritten to be just a little be more coherent. There were so many options with this plot (which in my opinion was better than the 2 previous movies) and somehow they managed to ruin it.
I can go on for another few paragraphs but I risk entering the non-politically correct zone where I may bring the wrath of the world upon my shoulders, so I will end here.
For those who are thinking of going to the cinema - rethink your decision and watch it at home.
For those who already went (and have fallen into the trap) - I am very sorry for you and hope you did not spend a lot of money.
6 Underground (2019)
It's not a masterpiece but it's a hoot!
I don't know what the hell were you expecting. This is a Michael Bay movie with Ryan Reynolds as the lead.
This is Deadpool + Die Hard + Bad Boys Franchise combined in one hell of a movie. I hate it when some movie snobs watch such a movie only to critise it afterwards.
If you want action-packed, funny and awesome movie WATCH IT NOW.
Lethal Weapon (2016)
This was a surprise!
So one day I was browsing a list of new shows and I was getting a bit bored with what I saw. There was nothing interesting,absolutely nothing to catch my eye. Suddenly I see LETHAL WEAPON and I say to myself - "What the hell are they up to now?" After seeing the reboot of the Fantastic 4 (with a black Human Torch) and a feminist Ghost Busters I was a bit skeptical, but I soldiered on and first saw the trailer. I was pleasantly surprised from what I saw, but I kept my cool because as we all know trailers are often misleading . After watching the first two episodes I was hooked. It is nothing like the movies which in my opinion is the best part of the show. They have taken the core of the original movies and added a modern twist. It's like the old 90's movies and shows but somehow more believable. If you are looking for an old action series with a modern touch this is the show for you.
This Is the End (2013)
Superbad
I understand that this is a directoral debut for Mr.Rogen but he could at least tried! The rule in football (for US citizen I mean soccer) that not every player makes a good manager applies in this case - not every actor makes a good director. Actually the "horror" part was the script, there was no comedy so I can't critise that and there were only three good parts in the movie - Rianna's death, Emma Watson wielding an axe and the fact that the movie ended. In my eyes this movie was a bad combination of Meet the Spartans, Fat Pizza, Harold and Kumar and Scary Movie. What makes it worse than the other four movies is that they are unique in their stupidity and this one was dumb when it was written and then took different stupid elements from Meet the Spartans, Fat Pizza, Harold and Kumar and Scary Movie!
P.S. - Mr. Rogen stick to acting. You are not that good of an actor but you are far worse in directing. Save the world from the pain and DO NOT DIRECT ANYMORE!
Equilibrium (2002)
I cannot believe this great movie got so little acknowledgement!
After carefully looking and ratings, reviews, nominations and winnings in the box office I was shocked to see how little acknowledgement this exceptional movie got.
Movies like "Kick-Ass","The Watch" and the last interpretation of "The Wizard of Oz" are put on pedestals and winning awards and having 177M revenues in the box office. While awesome movies such as this and "Dreamcatcher" are left in the "slumps" of the movie industry. Its just a shame how such great movies are neglected by the general population which is so thick skulls that only huge amounts of cr*p like "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo", "Jersey Shore" etc. can get through them.
Lockout (2012)
What's wrong with you people?
I don't know what has gotten into you people? You're talking about rip-offs and bad direction etc., but I honestly can't see what are you talking about. The acting was great with a cheesy line here and there but it was not that bad. The actors where very well chosen for their parts and you could see that they were really in character without exaggerating. There weren't that many CGI effects but when there were it was nicely done. I honestly had a lot of fun watching the movie and I don't see how it could have been a waste of time.
P.S. - it is very staggering who all people suddenly became movie critics and experts in direction and acting.
Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs (1987)
Voltron vs Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs
I do not agree with you man ! I think that this animated series were super fun for me when I saw it for the first time. I saw it even before Voltron. Yes it was always the same but at least was fun to watch and not that annoying as Voltron.
In Voltron we had the same thing every episode, but here at least there's more action and every attack is not concentrated on the planet Earth.
The mixed characters were great and the English accent of Saber Rider was great idea.
The cartoon was made for kids but even now I very much enjoy it, but it's hard to find. I think that Saber Rider is better in every way then Voltron!
Redline (2007)
Better than The Fast and The Furious
This movie is my Top5 movies list I have seen this year.I don't know a movie with so many hot chicks.Nadia Bjorlin was a great choice for the role of Natasha, I can't of anyone else who could have played this role better than her. The plot was original (a lot of racing, a little drama, some ass-kicking, lot of hot girls, expensive cars and some jokes). I may say that all of the people who rated this film below 5 shouldn't be aloud in theaters or comment in this site because they don't understand anything about movies. What did you expect? This movie is about cars and racing, not about the Mafia in the 30s. The movie is made for CAR fans, not for some computer geeks. The movie was great END OF STORY.
Mach 2 (2000)
Horrible
This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.The acting,the effects,the plot basically all of the movie was horrible.The F-14 who can't take down a simple Concorde,the stupid lines,the fact that fuel is leaking from the end of the plain where the baggage compartment is and so on,an so on.There was the sexy role of Shannon Whirry which brightens up the movie a little bid.There is also Brian Bosworth who is playing a Michael Dudikoff type of hero who is going to save everybody and he sucked as the hole movie if you ask me.But hey if there are movies like that young actors can find work.And it was a super commercial for the Concorde too.
That '70s Show (1998)
the best!
This is the best show I have seen on TV.I was born long after the 70s and if it was really like this then damn!Why was I born in the 90s.The characters are original and I really like Fez.He's just the funniest guy on that show.With his accent,his moves and his addictiveness to dirty magazines:D.Eric on the other hand was a little boring.He was stiff all the time and trying to be bad :|. Kelso was a little exaggerated.There isn't a man that stupid. But the two girls (Donna and Jacky) were just perfect.The two girls are super hot and specially Jacky.Hyde was just the perfect bad ass.Leo the perfect hippie. Always high and with a really short memory:D
Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place (1998)
One of the best!
This was one of the best shows I have seen on TV. The actors were really good and the writers were brilliant.I can't count the number of times I almost fell of my chair while watching Two Guys And A Girl.It's very sad that they canceled it :'( .By the way the last episode was kind a silly.They could have made another were everybody chooses a different path like in Friends. I think in some ways Two Guys And A Girl is better than Friends and I can't understand why Friends got 10 seasons and Two Guys And A Girl only 4.It's just not fair.I want to thanks every single one who worked in that show and it will not be the same without you!
