Spider-Man: Far from Home (2019)
Best Spider-Man...Yet
I am one of those burned out from this whole super hero fad. Right out of the gate I knew I was in for something much more than a super hero movie.
Far From Home is an action packed, deep story with little to miss, beautiful action scented and quite frankly a rom-com. In a good way! Tom Holland is quite possibly the polarizing if the remaining Avengers. He's a kid who just happens to have an innate ability to be the goofiest but the smartest in the room.
Mysterio might be the second best villain in the Marvel Universe behind Thanos. Jake Gyllenhall captures the classic essence of Mysterio.
To a avoid spoilers, you will not be disappointed in this movie. Think Gaurdians of the Galaxy humor with edge of your seat action similar to....who am I kidding, Spider-Man has his spin on jaw dropping action scenes.
The Hustle (2019)
Straight to VHS?
I cannot believe this movie stole nearly two hours of my life. Comedies are my favorite and Anne Hathaway is possibly my favorite actress. I didn't laugh once and Anne's role was flat. To her credit, she played the cards she was dealt but wow...this movie was another level of cringe worthy "humor."
Someone please tell why Rebel Wilson is considered funny in Hollywood! It blows my mind she gets lead roles in comedies time after time and isn't funny.
Save your hard earned money and buy literally anything else...I beg you!
I wish this movies went straight to VHS so nobody would have to suffer through this abysmal wannabe comedy.
Pokémon: Detective Pikachu (2019)
Video Game Movie Done Right
My expectations were very low for this movie. If you have ever seen a movie based on a video game, you would do the same.
Justice Smith fails to show any sort of real emotion or life in this movie. His time is coming, this movie just wasn't his moment. Ryan Reynolds made the movie as Pikachu. His humor is comparable to that from his most notable character, Deadpool. Witty jokes for all age groups. He nailed it.
Detective Pikachu is filled with twists and turns that are not expected. The whole theater walked out when the credits began just floored at what they saw. We were all legitimately impressed with the writing and story. Very impressed!
Set your expectations low going into Detective Pikachu and you might just be blown away by this nostalgic film filled with your favorite Pokémon's and classic Pokémon soundtrack!
Avengers: Endgame (2019)
Tap the breaks: Slow down the hype train!
Spoiler Free!
Was endgame good? Yes
Was endgame fun? Per usual
Was endgame non stop action? Kind of
Was endgame $400 million to make? Yes
If I gave you $400 million to make a movie it wouldn't be to difficult to pay top actors, writers and fund state of the art animations.
Endgame is a relatively non-stop rollercoaster of Marvel nostalgia. Great end to a storied franchise? Kind of. This is nowhere near the cinematic greatness of LOTR: Return of the King. That was a true film through and through. Endgame is monster budget with 80% boring monologue and corny jokes. If that's what you enjoy then all power to you.
Endgame has less action than any other Avengers film which I found incredibly disappointing and a let down.
Would I recommend you to see endgame? Don't be silly, this is generational movie. Generational in the sense of big money, big actors, mega marketing and big answers to a beloved storyline of multiple hero's. Marvel movies are popular because we have been told by everyone we have to love them. If you have one bad thing to say about a Marvel movie, you will become more isolated than Tom Hanks in Castaway. Well worth a watch but please...pump the brakes.
Little (2019)
Front Runner for Worst Film of 2019
This movie was so bad I had to write my first review. Not sure how this was even cleared to go to theaters. Absolutely cringe worthy with atrocious acting. I don't even know what else to say. Save your time and money. Water evaporating from a cup is much better entertainment than this.
