Rob Peace (2024)
It was a great story!!
It was heartwarming and touching and uplifting and sad all wrapped up in one, but it was real, just so real and it was honesty. I mean this movie paints a picture of Rob Peace and the picture was the truth. They did nothing to hide who this guy was at all just laid out the cards the way they were delt.
The only thing that may have been off balance was the acting chops of Jay Will. Will as Peace was absolute dynamite! I grew to care for what he was portraying on film as if thought he was my freind! I just want to put on record that's exactly what Oscars are given out for.
Chiwetel Ejiofor just showcased his diversity of talent with this one. Great Actor, i knew that! But great writer and Director!? This is the type of filmmaking i want to see over and over again.
A must see!
Borderlands (2024)
Not doing it for me.
I was excited to see that Eli Roth directed this film yet not surprised that he could not hit the mark needed for this to be worth anything.
It's no Thanksgiving. Eli thrives in the environment of campy horror film playing satire to yesteryear with a finger on social commentary.
This could have been that, but it was not. Can't say the story was not relatable. In fact, it was so relatable it was predictable.
The movie is an Ensemble cast of interesting people, who you would have never thought be in a movie together. Cate Blanchet and Kevin Hart!? That's a combo you never expected. Too Bad Eli could not make it work, though it feels like both were trying it just did not click. In fact, everything that should have been interesting was very uninteresting.
I'm not familiar enough with the game Borderlands cause i was expecting a movie version of the TV show Fallout somewhat, but I guess the games are more different than I thought.
This is a movie you should watch at home.
The Firing Squad (2024)
Possibly a good story in a badly made movie.
So, I'm not sure how much money Cuba Gooding Jr. Makes these days, but I feel like this whole movie's budget went to getting him to do 10mins of screen time.
As much as I hate to say this to such a positive story, I do feel like the storytelling was so bad that you could not help but to see the mistakes made in production. Thank God the sound was good i hate it when sound is off, but I could not help laughing at the bad visual effects use to make this movie at times when the film was supposed to be dramatic.
I will say they got their money's worth with Gooding. He's an actor who can hold his own and you can see that with him delivering the simplest lines in this flick.
Doesn't hurt that almost everyone else seemed incapable of doing this. Drama can be hard; this movie proves that.
The production quality of this movie though really through me off man. The nasty jail cell was a good concept, but it was a little too obvious this film was done in one place. There was a time in which Indonisea would be a cheap place to film a movie but that tells you something about the money they were working with that they could not afford to do it in Jakarta.
I cannot say that I wasted my time watching this film but i can't recommend because the cheap quality of production took me out of it.
Harold and the Purple Crayon (2024)
Just a little better because it was a book i remember from my childhood
It was unique that they decided to use an adult version of Harold and Zachary Levi did an amazing job being that grown up child. OfCourse Levi has proved that he can play a man child as Shazam so not really the biggest range in acting, which is great cause I thought it was charming and funny.
The dude from Flight of the Concords plays Gary who was actually a perfect villain for a semi children's story
and I do mean Semi. Some of the jokes in the film felt a little too grown up. I know children will get them but not sure if you should tell them.
A similar movie came out this summer called If, but i thought this movie's kind heart had a lot more value to it so i pick this over IF.
Trap (2024)
Glad i watched it!
I've been waiting for this movie all summer, or realistically snice I saw M. Night's daughter's lackluster movie the Watchers. I was geared up to see some M. Night Shyamalan and got spawn off instead so I wanted some M. Night.
It's a good movie it really is and Josh Harnett was really carrying this cause if you don't like him this movie would not work.
And Haley Mills!? I saw her name in the opening credits and then I saw her in the film. It's been a long-time snice i saw her in anything so i was definitely hung up on it.
Despite the Star power the movie flies on a great concept. A concept that interestingly revolves around the positivity of fame and social media. It also revolves around M. Night starting a possible singing career for another one of his kids. Hey Man, after what LeBron did for his kid, I'm feeling different about nepotism. The movie did not suffer because she genuinely has something.
I will say at first glance, it's not what I except from M. Night, but I did not leave the theatre disappointed that i did not get that.
Great watch!!
The Fabulous Four (2024)
Below Average
Using seasoned women in a comedy seems to be a genre in itself and the genre is picking up fast. As part of this genre The Fabulous Four is lackluster to films like Book Club and 80 for Brady. It might be that Diane Keaton and Jane Fonda have this genre on lock, which is strange because Sussan Sarandon is one of the hottest senior citizens out there, so this should have worked but it did not, at least not for me.
I do ponder. While the film is exploiting stars of a certain age there is very little comedy actually coming from this. We understand they are old and the movie leaves us with that and nothing else. Unlike films like Thelma in which I get a better insight of what happens to every human on the planet when they get old and that insight increased the entertainment value.
That insight is not found here as the women take advantage of their great genetics and the fact that they need not play old to tell a story about lifelong friendship, which i could have seen anywhere and have seen everywhere so The Fabulous Four is not bringing anything to the table and it shows.
Pass altogether.
Twisters (2024)
Worth every penny
I saw this at the Regal 4DX and i tell you, it was a thrill ride. Gives new meaning to the saying.
I'm not exactly sure what to expect when going in, but i do remember liking Twister and waiting to see a cameo from Helen Hunt or something (herd Bill Patxon's kid made an appearance).
Twisters did not need it thought. It was greatest as a stand-alone. Truly Glen Powell is making his way to movie stardom and is doing it as fast as he can. It feels like the best movies I've seen in the theatre for the past year had this dude in them. He's got something and it works.
Its the most cliche story in the world about the lead failing her old team going into depression until being pulled out by someone from her past to try again and of course the romantic sub plot of two rivals who take most of the movie to figure out what their genitals already know, but Hey its cool. I think Glen Powell has going for him that he has chemistry with anyone.
But it's all about those Twisters. This formula means nothing without the action that comes from these storm chasers chasing some pretty visually dangerous storms.
Absolutely worth my time.
Sing Sing (2023)
Insightful!
Wait, did Colman Domingo learned the craft in jail?
I don't know, but there were some clips in the end credits that would suggest that.
Anyway, I did like the story that the film told. I liked its message on rehabilitation. I've herd of at least one program like this that actor Charles S. Dutton came out of as an actor. I thought it added something using real ex-cons to tell the story. Not much acting there I guess as they talk about prison, they know.
I also liked how the film was filmed. Those scenes where the characters were in their jail cell made me feel claustrophobic.
I thought the story was told perfectly and it was a very good insight as to how the program worked. I feel inlighten for sitting through it.
Longlegs (2024)
Exactly what I expect from Nicolas Cage!
Overall, a good movie filled with unexpected story plots and twists. A very unique crime thriller due to the content background of the main character. Well-acted by some seasoned actors like Blair Underwood. It has a wooden style to it that I've seen other filmmakers do but here it's not so stiff and very warm
All this said it was a great movie that held its own. Then you put in Nicolas Cage doing his Nicolas Cage to the level you pay good money to see Nicolas Cage perform on and it's game!
The praise is this is one of the best horror movies ever made. Will not give it that much, not even to compare it to all the horror films that already came out this year, but no doubt its perfect and well done and big Cage makes it a must-see!
Janet Planet (2023)
Slow but stimulating.
It was such a strange trip that seemed so narrow than it should have been. I feel like i liked the movie because of how strangely similar me and this little girl's life is. It does not match up perfectly but i got what she was going through enough to enjoy what I saw on the screen.
That is not the best review for a movie, because realistic the only thing the movie does have to it is a relatable factor because it does not come with much emotional backage to it. Although in fairness that could be the part of the film i did not relate to.
Honestly could not recommend this film to anyway. Although I was entertained, I fear that would just be me.
MaXXXine (2024)
Stands on its own as great movie but also makes a fantastic end to the trilogy.
I was looking forward to this one ever sense I saw at the ending of Pearl that there would be a part three "technically" of the film X.
A24 even makes a unique horror trilogy with Maxine Minx (how is this not been used as a real porn name?) returning after her unique Final Girl run in X trying to make it in LA as a mainstream star.
More of a thriller vibe than a horror vibe with a not so sub story about what it takes to be a movie star in this business.
I enjoyed the large ensemble cast they wiped up to make the film with great acting all the way
I will say it's not my favorite of the three I can see that. Compared to what came before MaXXXine was out of the ordinary in a trilogy that's out of the ordinary, but standing on its own as a homage to a lot of movies that came out in the 80s it was gold.
Kill (2023)
Wild action film!
So the selling point for the movie was that this was going to be the most bloodiest goriest Indian film ever. As i started watching I did not notice anything out of the ordinary. Then i realized this film is a lot more violent than what I'm used to seeing in Bollywood films. Bollywood action films have plenty of action and fighting and the hero kills in large numbers, but this dude was doing it with his hands and the blood was pouring from everyone.
Nothing that i never seen before just never from an Indian film. The uniqueness comes from the fact that the whole movie takes place on this train. Just a constant flow of battles happening in the tightest area possible
Some surprises really made this picture original to the genre and added to it being one of the best action movies done.
Despicable Me 4 (2024)
Cute!
Wow! What a franchise! Four movies the spin off movies with the Minions. Never would have expected all this.
I enjoyed this movie. Would have never suspected that Gru would be the type of character that i would want to see over and over again but it is cool to catch up with him and the girls every few years. The film has some funny gimmicks in it and if you are a fan you notices some extras that you'll find cool.
I would just say this movie does not have the best soundtrack, but it looks like Pharell is saving that for his own project.
Can't say that I'm really feeling the villain though. A little too disgusting for me to watch.
From beginning to end it was a good film to sit through.
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024)
Well I really enjoyed it!
Not gonna win any awards but it was a solid movie. Had its laugh out loud moments and if you are a fan of the other three movies you'll notice a format that's done in every Beverly Hills Cop movie.
It does take you back to the 80s though which was magically actual.
I feel like the most outdated thing for this Beverly Hills Cop movie is Beverly Hills itself. The city no longer seems like a odd place for a down-to-earth blue collar Detroit police officer to do his thing.
As we catch up with Axel Foely it was cool to see Judge Reinhold, Paul Reiser Bronson Pinchot, and the dude who played Taggert in the movie, but what was Ronnie Cox doing that he could not appear in the flick and reprise his role?
The thing about it is its a good action comedy. Don't expect it to be as good as the first or the second,, just expect it to be two hours of joy.
The Blue Angels (2024)
This Rocked!
I feel like Top Gun 2 is opening up a can of worms to produce movies about Ariplanes. It was a great IMAX experience but I have to say nothing overally spectcalar happen that i would recommend it over a reglar format.
It was an intresting story and like a line of GI Joe action figures their was a Blue Angel for everyone. They could be more diverse but that's really not the point, the point it they did do their best to showcase everyone.
This is why I say you can watch this on any format. For a film that was promoted as being for IMAX they could have done more airplane scenes or something. Not that what they did show does not blow me away, the documentary has a lot of talking overall. More suited for true lovers of Aviation.
IF (2024)
Magical
I did not think i would like IF but I ended up really enjoying myself John Kraniski seems to be stretching his directing muscle by trying a children's movie after his spectacular run on a quiet place.
I did think the use of CGI in this movie was a bit odd. Its' possible Kraniski purposely did a bad job on it to express the fact that IFs are not real but that offsetting actually freaked me out a little.
A lot of the IFs were very imaginative. It did help that Kraniski had some juggernaut voice talent like Steve Carrell. Although my favorite was the Magician Mouse voice by Sebastian Maniscalco...perfect, and shout out to Lou Gossett Jr. Rest In Peace.
Ofcourse Ryain Reynolds is in the movie. He's ok and I really like the kid who plate Bea and other kid Benjamin.
I hope this movie does well I think its got what it takes to be a classic or a cult classic anyway.
Unfrosted (2024)
Man, Seinfeld really loves cereal
You here that Jerry Seinfeld is directing a movie he starred in and I got to tell you i'm a little surprsed about the comedy style of this movie. These jokes seem cheap and slappy. Not that i did not think it was funny, but i feel there is a level this movie stopped to that I did not think Jerry would go there. That was suprising.
I've herd his bits on cereal and his pit on the Pop tart which is his most recent bit and its funny that this is the movie he decided to make, as this movie is about something, its about breakfeast.
I would not say this movie was not the best Seinfeild can do, it was funny and I was entertain and that's all i can say about it. I enjoyed it. Not the greatest movie ever, that's a given but I'm sorry that i chekced it out.
Not Another Church Movie (2024)
A very good Tyler Perry movie LOL!
Despite the fact that this movie is poking fun at Tyler Perry movies, and i would love to know Mr. Madea's opinion of it, the film actually follows the fromula of every Tyler Perry movie I ever scene to the letter. In fact, the joke seems to be just pointing out that formula and detailing the ingredients.
Yeah, it's very jabby but it felt like it was all in fun. I will say I did not get all the jokes because ironically, i did not realize how many Tyler Perry films I never scene. I was just expecting one long joke about Madea, but the film seems to cover the entire "Medeaverse" and basically goes through every film in that universe and I only seem one of two of theses movies.
Plus, you can't beat Jamie Fox playing God.
I can't see anyone who likes Tyler Perry movies not liking this movie. It's a parody but it fits fully into everything those movies are.
Poolman (2023)
Chris Pine is Bizzare (or at least he was trying to be)
I would have never expected something like this from this gen's Captain Kirk, and I'm still not sure about what I just saw. Was it a pardoy of some sort to Chinatown? I don't know. Far for me to judge Pine on his looks but his attempts to be Jack Black if he lost weight did not cut it for me. Everything about the movie felt like he was trying to change his style to something that he truly is not.
I would love to say this movie was great. I'll admit Pine's bizzareness had me entertianed it helped that the It's always Sunny star, Danny Devito is in it as he knows Bizzare. Annette Betteing, John Ortiz and DeWanda Wise just happen to be good actors in a strange movie.
I just did not understand what was going on in this Mystery movie and who Pine is supposed to be cause he's not really a PoolMan.
The Fall Guy (2024)
The Unknown Stuntman who makes Tom look so fine.
He falls from a tall building; he falls from a brand-new car.
Not sure if I love the old song as much as i loved the TV show (especially because I'm not sure I got the lyrics right), but that's focus on the movie i just saw.
Ryan Gossling is very very entertaining. It's always such a shock to me casue Gossling seems too serious to be funny, yet he knows how to make me laugh on the big screen. Plus, he did have great chemistry with Emily Blunt. Together, they made the screen explode.
The ensemble cast was excellent as well. Winsten Duke, Arron Taylor as Tom Ryder (was that a poke at Tom Cruise just a little bit?) and the woman from Ted Lasso. It was a funny movie.
It did not feel like a romantic comedy more than anything as the movie focus on the relationship of Colt and Jodi with everything feeling secondary to that. In fairness that could just prove how amazing Gossling and Blunt are together.
I also felt that considering this is a movie adaption about a TV show about a stuntman I honestly thought i would get bigger, better stunts. The stunts were great, but they seemed standard rather than do something that stands out.
Overall, very entertained by what turned out to be a romantic comedy over action comedy.
Sting (2024)
Top Teir Horrof Film!
It's like someone made Little Shop of Horrors meets Aliens or rather that's what it reminds me of. I was expecting a very low grade horror movies and in a lot of ways that's exactly what it is, but the filmmakers did such a good job of putting it together that it just made for one of the best I've seen this year.
The monster itself was excellent. Just scary as hell and monstrous to boot. I feel like it was all about what needed to be show and what particular time and what did not and they did it with perfection.
Not much to say but to say it's definitely worth your time to see sting. Was not expecting much but got so much.
Civil War (2024)
This movie was brillant!
Civil War has an interesting plot to it as it does not seem to out of reason that something like this would happen in modern day times. In fact I dare to say it is happening just not on the level of this movie.
However my favorite part of the film was the unexpected character development of Kristin Dust's character. I've seen this trend in a lot of movies lately in which they draw you in with the hot button topic but the movie takes a side step that has less to do with that topic. I've never seen it done so well then right here in this movie Civil War which was mostly a movie about what it takes to be a good journalist and the type of person who has what it takes to be that.
I saw something in the movie I was not expecting and it made me love it more.
Arcadian (2024)
Far better than i ever expected!
This was a great movie!!!
It's only a good Nicolas Cage movie but it's a great movie. Nicolas Cage is a little tame in comparison. After all he's battling a herd of the strangest monsters I've seen so far. These things were the most freighting monsters I've seen so far. I feel the movie gave clues on what they were but I'm still not sure. Whatever they were they stole the show with the outright horror they brought to this masterpiece. Just one of the best and exciting horror movies I've seen, especially this year. Having Cage in this film was pure icing on one of the most delicious cakes I've ever eaten.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)
It's like they listened to me about the last flick and adjusted this movie accordingly.
As far as I'm concerned the original could have used less human story and just stuck with Godzilla and Kong going at it. I've said it out loud once and it feels like they heard me. Though the New Empire does have a human story it goes by so quick as to not let too much time linger between the Kong /Godzilla scenes. It threw me off at first cause I was not expecting such a short movie but it was jam-packed with all the monster fighting you needed. Particularly with Kong being a bigger focus on this movie than the other. So much so in fact that you could say that he was that human story I was expecting in the film. The destruction was wicked, No matter what Godzilla's duty to protect this earth in the Monsterverse being created, this movie makes it obvious that we are nothing but insects to this dude. There was something truly horrifying about the Death and Destruction that this movie was showing. I don't think any Godzilla movie was as globe trodding as the New Empire allowing the King of Monsters to commit to some serious genocide defending the planet as a whole. It's a little disturbing and I loved it, but it's the only thing this movie shares with the far better-done Godzilla Minus One.
Overall, it's the perfect movie experience.
Asphalt City (2023)
Also starring Mike Tyson!?
I can't tell if that's a step up for Mike or a step down for Sean Penn. Unfortunately for Penn, I need to say the latter. This movie came and went without any promotion for it, despite what a great film it is. Tye Sheridan got to flex his acting muscle sparing with Sean Penn and of course Mike Tyson, who was fit for the role so it made sense. The film kept reminding me of the Martina Scorsese film Brining up the Dead, which starred Nicolas Cage in a role similar to Sean Penn, in fact, the concept of both movies almost makes Asphalt City a sequel. It does not help that there are not enough movies about the subject to think otherwise.
Anyway, this movie is too good to be hidden away like it seems to be.
