Late Night with the Devil (2023)
I don't get the hype...
First, the movie wasn't bad. I just wasn't good. It deserves more like a 5 rating but I wanted to counter the obviously fake great ratings.
It's a slow burn with no real payoff. No character that you care about so no investment in the story. I kept waiting for the big "scare" but sadly, it never happened.
People talk about it being "original" or "something new". There was nothing new or original about it. The opening was like Texas Chainsaw. The talk show was like The Cleansing Hour. The possessed little girl has been done so much it hurts. Nothing about this is new or original.
I've been looking forward to seeing this for a long time just to get another huge let down. If you haven't seen The Cleansing Hour, watch that instead. The movie isn't awful but not nearly as good as the rating or most of the reviews would lead you to believe.
Dracula Untold (2014)
Great movie
This was a really good movie. Go see it.
I'm writing this because IMDb doesn't give the option of commenting on reviews.
This is for those reviewers that give it low marks because it's "historically inaccurate" or "too unrealistic". You do understand that Dracula isn't real right. The story was based off of Vlad but it's just a story. Holy cow, it's really sad that needs to be said.
The story line is great. small bits of humor that work with the movie. Luke was great in the lead.
Give the movie a chance just understand that it's a movie, not a documentary like some of the other reviewers.
Home Movie (2008)
One of the worst movies I have ever seen.
Don't believe any of the good reviews on here. They obviously are involved in the movie somehow.
I have seen a lot of stupid, boring movies and this is one of the worst I have ever seen.
This movie starts off slow and never picks up. I kept watching thinking "it's got to get better right". Never happened.
You don't care about anyone it the movie. There is no tension. There is no action. Not at any time do you think to yourself "this could be someone's home movie". It is just bad.
I buy dvds then watch them. I've been doing it for at least 10+ years now and have a couple thousand dvds and blurays. In all that time and with as many bad movies I have kept there are about 3 or 4 movies that, after watching them, I hate so much that I just throw away. This is one of those movies.
Bridesmaids (2011)
Funny movie, even for guys!
This is going to be short and sweet as there are a lot of reviews that go into really good detail.
Here is the thing, if you don't have a sense of humor or don't like crude humor, don't see this movie. Some of the reviews on here are just ridiculous. "It wasn't what I expected from the previews". Really? It was EXACTLY what I thought it was going to be from the previews. Do you not watch SNL? What previews were you watching? I thought the movie was really funny and the only reason I saw it was because I lost a bet with my wife (I wanted to see X-men: First Class).
I love Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph on SNL so I knew they were funny but I didn't know they could act as well. The chemistry between the two of them really makes the movie for me. Maybe because they have spent so many years together on SNL or maybe they really are best friends but you really believe that the two of them are best friends. The dialog between the two just seems real.
So is short, this humor is not for everyone but to think it is any different than the previews is just moronic.
Good Movie. Go see it!
Insidious (2010)
Not good at all!!
It looks like there are either a lot of relatives or a lot of people being paid to write reviews because I don't know how anyone can say this movie was good.
The concept wasn't bad but the execution was god awful. The direction was amateurish. The camera angles were awful and (one of my pet peeves) WAY too many close ups. The make-up looked like it was done by high school kids.
You never really connect with any of the characters so you don't care what happens to any of them. The whole thing was just BAD.
Wait for this to come out on DVD or even cable. I read all the good reviews and thought that the bad reviews were just people that don't really like horror movies. I was wrong. I'm really not kidding when I say that I think people were paid to write reviews.
