The Wave (2019)
Different
This is a great movie to watch with open minded friends, with people who have ever tripped or just alone. I saw that trailer at a local Indy theater and decided to order on Xbox when it dropped. So to start I would say it's honestly a solid 7.5. Justin Long turns in a role that suits his style of acting perfectly. The build up is great and the film is extremely hard to predict. As for Donald faison he personifies the words "loyal friend" and delivers a fun preformance. The movie does come on in waves and leaves certain things to interpretation. Definitely worth at least a try for the efforts turned in on the visuals alone. Thanks for the read!
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
This is DC, not a Disney owned Marvel Movie.
So I'm going to try to do this review a little different.
Superman- This movie is showing his growth from outcast alien to finding his place among us and the realistic side of having a superhuman brawl through cities where people are living and working. He's given real emotions and dilemmas. I loved seeing these aspects because in certain iterations of superman he's definitely giving into the darker side of humanity(like the injustice storyline). He's not quite the boy scout yet because he's still young and hasn't reach his full potential yet.
Batman- WOW! Affleck is dark, brooding, and actually does the whole detective thing. He makes the perfect Bruce Wayne, you have to see the movie to really enjoy it. As for his Batman, he's older and really just fed up with the scum in Gotham. Ultimately he's losing his way and the events of this movie could take him ether direction.
Wonder Woman- Is BADASS & BEAUTIFUL! She's not in the movie a whole lot, but she makes up for it in the end.
Alfred- solid performance by Jeremy Irons.
Lex- Not the best part of the movie but Jesse is a solid villain! He's a little more psychotic than calculated.
Doomsday- Makes sense how he was created, just a bit of a twist on his back story.
The Movie is solid!The people that are complaining it's boring should probably take their ADHD meds before attending a DC movie. DC comic have always been very dialogue driven and so is the first half of this movie. There are a lot of topics this movie has to deal with, so it does a good job considering everything they had include. The Metahuman cameos are solid enough for now. The Batman vs. Superman fight scene is great an the way it plays out is sensible. The follow ups will be a lot better and hopefully just as dark.
