A Million Miles Away (2023)
Gosh Damn Inspirational!!!
A million miles away is one of those movies that takes a truly remarkable journey on not giving up. Michael Peña does a terrific job playing Jose Hernandez, who defines not giving up on your dream. The sacrifice it takes to follow your dream. The film itself doesn't slow down one bit from its dialogue and emotion of the film. I do not want to give away the entire plot as f the movie. Yes, Jose Hernandez does become an astronaut. But the journey in getting their is what makes the movie a truly remarkable film. I would love to see this film get recognition for its quality of style in telling the biopic.
Extraction 2 (2023)
Hargrave's best work!!!!!
There's always that one sequel that doesn't live to its expectations. Extraction II wasn't that sequel. Sam Hargrave does his best action scenes in this movie. A simple plot with fantastic choreography action. One scene in which I don't want to spoil. The camera work was magnificent and feels you're right in the action. Chris Hemsworth shows the audience that Thor isn't the only character he can do. I would had loved to see it on the big screen. Extraction II is film to be recognizable as a franchise. As long as Hemsworth and Hargrave continues to work together. I hope to see more of Extraction sequels.
Flamin' Hot (2023)
It's worthy to be call inspiring
Before you give my review a thumbs down. Here me out. When I first saw the trailer for Flamin Hot. My reaction was I guess Hollywood is focusing on food and they are desperate to making anything these days. I even googled the founder of the hot Cheeto and realized this man really started out as a janitor. Became the savior for frito lay. So I decided to give the movie a shot. Granted it's an independent film with a small budget and with up and coming cast members. Including a few veteran actors/actresses. The movie was very moving and inspiring. Yes, the hot cheeto was part of the focal point of the film. But how it started and how the inventor got where he came from was truly fascinating. Look as I said in the beginning, it's not a big budget film like AIR(which is another fantastic film) with big time cast. Flaming hot gives meaning working from the ground up brings meaning of success.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)
Speechless
If you're going to create a trilogy the Spider-verse is heading to the right direction. The second part to the Spidey-Verse was beautifully crafted with mesmerizing animation effects and a fantastic screenplay. I don't want to give too much details because I don't want to play spoiler and second so much goes on into the film. You have to watch it twice. Whether you're a fan of Toby M, Andrew G, or Tom H Spider-Man's version. This Miles Morales version doesn't disappoint. As a fan of the cinematic world, it's not often an animated film gets high praise. However, Across the Spider-Verse, is a animated movie to be recognize.
The Bubble (2022)
SMH.....
It looked funny. It had a great All-Star comedy cast. Unfortunately, the movie was a disaster. It's like watching a sports team with a great lineup and watching them lose their chances to win a championship. I know Judd can do better!
Hustle (2022)
Adam Sandler at his best!
We all seen Adam Sandler at his funniest moment. From Happy Gilmore to Grown-ups 2. The list goes on and on. However watching in the movie Hustle proves that he could actually be a great actor rather than a funny comedian in a slapstick movie. His acting in the movie Hustle shows that he could be a really serious actor and be funny at the same time. Fantastic job!
The Pentaverate (2022)
My gosh... MIKE MYERS!
For those giving low ratings to The Pentaverate, you don't have the Myers humor. Finally, an off the wall comedy I can enjoy! The Pentaverate is series to which belittles conspiracy theories and gives the humor the audience finally to laugh at.
Eternals (2021)
Great StoryTeller
I guess particular Marvel Fans don't like a great storyteller. I for one was very hesitate watching this film. As being a cheap skate and wait till Disney plus release the film. I wish I saw the film on an actual IMAX theater.
The Wrong Missy (2020)
It wasn't terrible for a slapstick comedy.....
Okay so it wasn't a rom com like my best friend wedding feeling but it was funny enough to call it a slapstick rom com.
The Last Dance (2020)
Amazing
This was a great journey! If your a fan of Jordan, Bulls, or just a sports fanatic. This documentary was done so carefully and held no punches. Loved it!
Hustlers (2019)
For what it's worth.....
Hustlers wasn't bad of a film. I can see some masculine guy feeling offended watching it. For what it's worth it shows the world women are smart and can be a player just like a alpha male. Overall, the move reminds me of Night Shift with Henry Winkler and Michael Keaton without the benefits.
Brews Brothers (2020)
Hilarious Satire at its finest
I'll be the first to say loved it! It's satire at its best! If you don't love The League humor then don't watch it!
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
It was......
It was a meh type of film. JJ Abrams really tried to stop the bleeding from the previous film. I can tell there was a quite of few edits to make it a enjoyable film. Too many unanswered questions but it does give new hope for new fans. As a fan of the Star Wars franchise I'm just glad for The Mandalorian.
Lost in Space (1998)
Walked out
I can remember when lost in Space was premiered and I literally walked out after 15 minutes of the movie.
Family (2018)
Better than I expected
Look Family isn't one of those Oscar contender flicks or it may not win any major category awards. Family does have a simple heartwarming story about family. Family is a simple independent film with plenty of Charisma and laughs.
Mystery Science Theater 3000: Mac and Me (2018)
Finally!
Thank you Thank you Thank you THANK YOU for finally giving this movie what it deserves! Mystery Science Theater 3000 for life!
Evil Genius: The True Story of America's Most Diabolical Bank Heist (2018)
Wow!
I do recall th pizza bomb, but it didn't know it went this far! Amazing documentary!
