The Day After Tomorrow (2004)
Joke of a disaster movie.
There was nothing original, creative, or innovative about this film. It plays completely on a political agenda trend and hopes that that the film will just smooth it all over and make everything make sense. But it doesn't. It is over-budgeted, over-bloated, and very much over-acted. Anyway, I'm done ranting, but this film needs to see its way to the dumpster. Just my opinion.
The New Mutants (2020)
Just bad bad story-writing and interpretation of the original material
Not going to make this all blow-hearted, but this movie failed first and foremost in its writing and story telling. Such a GREAT opportunity to capitalize on a different perspective of the mutant/x-men genre, as the comics did with the New Mutants, and such a complete failure. This movie lacked substance, continuity, story, everything. I am very disappointed and hope the makers of this debacle feel the same as well. One positive, I think the actors actually did a good job with what they had to work with. But come on!!! Haven't we tortured the x-men/mutant side of Marvel enough with bad movies?? It is such a RICH storytelling opportunity!!! Why can you not see this and make a movie that is worthy of it? Okay, I am done with my rant, but seriously, the "mutant phenomena" within Marvel and essentially the American Dogma of American Mythology has been something I not only grew up with, but have studied throughout the years, and this movie really missed its mark. There is so much amazing source material they could have played from, and they just trashed it all to make some garbage that they hoped people would pay to see.
Brightburn (2019)
Concept is good, writing and directing falls very short
Neat concept. Superman arrives at "The Kent's Farm" but he is evil. After that, this is just a train wreck of storytelling. Characters are weak and one dimensional. Acting is a struggle to deal with a weak script. Suspense is poorly setup. Could have been so much better. Very disappointed.
