The Lair (2022)
Okay movie, yet..
* SPOILER ALERT *
The movie is okay, not amazing, not total crap.
Yet..
2/3rds in, maybe 3/4rs in, everything that happens after that point, deaths, blood, fire and brimstone, is completely their own fault for being idiots, for real, idiots.
They find out that the mine is getting bombed, flattened out of existence, in 20 minutes.
Yet they decide, without batting an eye, to still go down into the mine, for some weird reason.
And of course everyone dies, well nearly everyone.
Had they just stayed up top and not went there, the whole story would have a (somewhat) happy ending.
But the movie would only have been 1 hour long, if they had not been total idiots without functional brains.
So ask yourself, is it okay to base the main action part of a movie, on this?
The Rookie: Feds (2022)
This is a comedy wrongly labeled by IMDB
Comedy show, none of the genres IMDB put on this show are true. Nothing about the first episode was crime or action, -or even drama, it was old school silent movie jokes, with sound on them, all the way through.
Starring Kevin Hart playing two huge boobies with a female face attached, resembling Niecy Nash.
Sorry but its true, Niecy Nash acts, sounds and moves like Kevin Hart, and that frequency of Her voice makes dogs run and hide.
That being said, the show is kind of okay, of course all the actors from the real Rookie show are in this one as well, and at least they do a good job at being...them.
I gave it 4 stars, because I expected realism to some extent, but its a comedy, at least the first episode was.
Hoping it gets a lot better.
The Reef: Stalked (2022)
No, just, no.
Please never let this director make any more movies.
So many human behavior flaws, and in all honesty, feminism got backpaddled (pun intended) by at least a decade from watching this movie.
If these girls has just kept paddling instead of flowing away in their minds ALL the time, this movie would at least have been over in 20 minutes. I mean seriously, this is a canoe movie right, and they never paddled more than 15 seconds before not paddling, doing nada, for longer and longer time.
It was dull and hard to keep watching, I did make it to the end though, because I wanted to warn all of you not to waste your time watching it.
1 Interrogation (2020)
No way worth all those stars
This is a low budget movie, of people talking and talking. Acting is non existent, bad camera, cheap format, all signs of just being bad.
If I have to say something positive, they do touch on some subjects along the way, that opens for discussion and thought, if you can sit through 90mins of blah blah.
Galaxy Lords (2018)
Not worth your time
Even writing a review is too hard. In all seriousness, there should be laws against making movies like this in 2018.
Sure, if you can sit through the stupid costumes and bad dialog, there is an element of plot that makes it through your laughing.
Creed II (2018)
Creed II disappointed me.
US versus Russia...again?... Shouldn't it have been Israel really? It felt like US govt ordered it, paid for it, and wrote half the script..
And the casting...M Jordan is so bad as a boxer, he looks like a 16 year old scared kid, even when he wants to look scary.
Then the music, what...the... just because a black actor is the lead role, doesn't mean the music has to be bad rap/hip hop. Heck at some point it almost turned into a musical...
The boxing parts sucked, we never get the feeling that they fought for it, like we did in the old Rocky movies.
Inconceivable (2017)
Slow but makes you think
The movie takes off slow, but makes you keep guessing. Some of the acting seems off, Cage is as always great. And bad wigs, no really, the wigs they used looked like there was twice as much dark hair in them as supposed to, it was just too obvious, they wanted the natural blonde to play the role of a dark haired woman, who went blond to hide. It doesn't work.
Element (2016)
Argue argue argue
If you want to watch a movie where every single scene is an argument, and I mean this literally, there is barely one scene in the movie where the lead role isn't arguing, yelling, or being yelled at by everyone he interacts with, then watch Element. Personally I watch movies to relax, but this one had me yelling too, at the actors, at the script writer, at the director, everything. I managed to make it to the end, which surprised me, I had really hoped for the plot to change, or the actors to start acting instead of yapping fast lines. If I have to say something positive, it's that the movie has a start, a middle and an ending, though not a very good ending. Summary: bad acting, bad script and a lot of yelling.
Four Rooms (1995)
You need to know Quentin Tarantino to watch this movie
4 directors, 4 segments. If you watch this movie, you will have to crunch the urge to cancel watching, for a good 30mins. You have to work your way through some complete weirdo scripts and acting. The two first segments, really don't need to be in this movie, but are worth watching, for the balance you then get by watching the last 2 segments.
Quentin Tarantino... well hold on, let me back up a bit. If any of you know about Joe Satriani, super guitarist, and his G3 project, Q.T. is doing what Joe does with those G3 tours. Joe Satriani invites 2 of the worlds best rock-guitarists to do this G3 tour with him. -and i mean great awesome guitarists. Then he lets them play some insanely good solos, and then Joe takes over and runs circles around them, playing, and sounding, 10x better than them.
Quentin did exactly that with this movie, intentionally or not. Q.T. sort of let's those 3 other directors 'borrow' his gear and set, to let them have a go at his filming style. And then Quentin finishes it all off with a stellar performance, both as an actor, and script writer, and of course director, that leaves you thinking "wow, it was really really worth not giving up halfway through this movie"
THE END.
