Cooties (2014)
Ending left me unfulfilled
Start: The chicken slaughter sequence was quite disturbing and I don't think it really enhanced the film too much. Felt as if it was sponsored by a radical'meat is murder' group Middle: The film as a whole was really enjoyable and funny Ending: The ending really let the whole thing down. I understand they wanted to leave it open for a sequel, but there was no ending whatsoever. I was waiting for something catastrophic to happen and get resolved with a spooky plot twist but there was none of this. It fell completely flat. Even though I felt a bit disappointed I would still watch a sequel to give it a second chance of an ending.
Aloha (2015)
Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh make it stop
..."Ughhhhhhh" is a word which would sum up my time watching the movie 'Aloha'. I was extremely intrigued when I saw the synopsis and cast of this movie: Bradley Cooper, Rachel McAdams, Bill Murray, Emma Stone (my personal favourite), and even Michael Chernus who appeared in Orange is the new Black. Obviously I'm no professional but it would seem difficult to make a film containing such great actors so dull. I'll have to admit that I didn't watch the ending, although I can vouch that the beginning and middle of the movie was tragically slow paced and I don't expect the ending was any better. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys the prospect of bawling your eyes out with boredom.
The Quiet (2005)
Pretty good actually
As a person who had checked ratings for this movie in advance I didn't have high expectations, however I was pleasantly surprised :D.
To summarise without giving away too many spoilers, it's about a girl called Dot who's deaf yet still manages to observe so much about the world around her. After some unfortunate events in her childhood she has to go live with her Godparents and their peppy blonde high-school cheering daughter. Pretty normal... It would seem. This movie contains plot twists, and I'm glad to say it wasn't all annoyingly given away in the trailer as a lot of movies are.
This was a dark adult film, but I'll assure you it wasn't one of those films that left me dark and depressed afterwards- it really made me think about things. Saying that, I still wouldn't recommend it for those who are too light-hearted
Although it wasn't amazing, I would still recommend watching this film to most people if you have some spare time. Well worth your while!
