Grenades and flame throwers are insane in this. Minus terrible dialogue and clichè story, the goated action makes up for it all

Condense the first hour yapping by 95%, way too much dialogue and you have urself an easy 4.5 stars.
Second half was class, submarine and plane sequence was brilliant

Sweet premise but so mid and rushed. 
The way they pronounce “Nonna’s” in this movie pisses me off, aren’t you all italian?

This one hit hard, vampires just elevated an already great story.
I won’t be letting anyone in

Music Slaps, Void is tough.
Florence Pugh needs an oscar very soon the way she’s tracking.

Simple, a team showing their faith in a driver despite everything telling them not to.
It’s not a gloating doco, it’s just inspiring.

Can’t believe i’ve seen this before thunderbolts and sinners.
Good movie I won’t lie

John Williams you hit me hard with that score.

I’ve lost faith in  humanity.. but i don’t give a shit bc this is a masterpiece and the cinema was electric

“That is small potato, I am big potato’s”
From that point on, I yawned, I slept, I woke up, went to sleep. 
Trash Movie, “i want her dirty” is a crazy line

This might just be in my top 4. Crazy good underrated movie

goof

Plot armour and nuke physics goes crazy here

Eh

Walked in late by myself. For what i saw, good. Jimmy carey’s dance alone gets a full star

Cape fear on water
I’ve never hated silence more

I’ve never cringed and tensed more in my life
SICK.
Naomi Ackie should’ve been nominated and won an oscar this year, biggest snub

Jack Quaid is always cast as the loser, she should've had sweeter revenge tho

Went in blind, exceeded my expectations, wtf

“Hey Siri what is a hysterectomy”
Oh nvm i get it. 

Shots, Score and Ralph Fiennes top notch.

A story like this was bound to bring a tear to my eye, but the non-linear shit held it back from me balling sadly

Whoever the dickhead was that told me this movie wasn’t scary has it coming. 
I’m now scared of the shadows.
Insane movie

You know this hits when you get goosebumps during almost every scene, in awe of this motherfucking spectacle of a movie

On levels with die hard 2, and honestly this might’ve done it better. 
Set peices and story was intense. Will be my new christmas movie rewatch every year

10th Anniversary IMax Rewatch 🥲

It’s aight, physics left the chat in this one

Very well done, could’ve and should’ve seen the show. Even an avid hater of spending money on the show has had a change of heart

Watched on Wednesday November 20, 2024.

That was actually decent. 
The character complexity was so good, but because of that I forgot to care much about the main character in the first half bc everyone else was so interesting. 
Denzel washington & Pedro Pascal stole the movie.

Upon reflection, I now declare myself prince of Rome so I’ll be taking some leave as I lead the roman empire to victory.

Insane. Genuinely an insane medium of film and I can’t wait for the next one. 
The plot twists are just as insane as Missing

Pretty decent step up, followed the same beats as first movie but jump scares were scarier.

Predictable yet surprising ending if you've seen the first movie and some actors were bad but kate hudson was incredible!
More gory, better character development, bigger budget.

Genuinely might be one of the best shows of all time come the finale.
Cent’anni is the best episode so far, Oz is insane and Sophia is a force to be reckoned with

This was so beautiful, watching her realise how many people loved her, I don’t think anyone will ever realise that until they’re older, that hurt

After 45 minuets I made the unanimous decision to spare my mum and brothers sanity by turning off the TV

Beautiful movie, the middle almost made me cry in the middle, mum was balling

I know it’s a kids movie, but I almost wanted it to be more dark for the sad moments to hit harder

Smooth operator is always welcome in a movie like this

Watched on Sunday September 29, 2024.

Absolutely devastating, made mum cry which hit harder this time around.

Not great
Pacing was awful
Loved that the cast had a good time tho. Catherine O’hara you were the only one to make me laugh, and I appreciate you for that.

I really wanted to like this, Tim Burton was my favourite director growing up, he was the reason I wanted to become one in the first place.
But it was just boring, i’m glad it was popular but it wasn’t for me sadly

ONE OF THE BEST AND MOST UNDERRATED MOVIES OF THE YEAR
I cannot recommend this enough, holy shit

MY NEW FAVORITE MOVIE OF 2024
This movie is so fucked on so many levels, these kids need to go to jail. But i don’t care lowkey, bad dialogue and a fucked story just made me love this even more

Not as bad as what the reviews were.
For the most part the themes were interesting and I loved how at the 50min mark in usual alien fashion where everything goes wrong, they subvert every expectation.
It’s not a claustrophobic Act 2 hunt up in space like usual now. With that however, it lost all its suspense in that middle portion. But the ending was pretty sick

Best scene was the entire sequence as soon as they touch down on the planet, the music is so eerie and the build up is worth it.

Cgi really not great and i think this really held it back from being scary bc u could tell. 
It was tonal inconsistent. Got a fucking scary scene and then turned into this biblical alien creation story wtf

Tell why a 1979 film made my heart race more than most horror films this year. 
It held tension for an entire hour when other films tension disappears right after the jump scare

Goated movie

Decent fun 
Directing was pretty sick, felt in the action.
Best scene was when the tornado arrived at the rodeo, that’s when u truly felt the stakes and the final act was great too

Watched in Dbox motion seats, trippy experience.
Sets and Visuals were immaculate and practically brought us back to what 1970s believed the future was. 
There was a level of set up built for some of the characters. Interesting themes presented too with the androids and nice tension.
But I left wanting more, maybe more emotional weight or better payoffs, everything explored kinda just became forgotten.
Doesn’t mean it wasn’t incredibly well done. Much better sequel than some of the other Alien films.

This is honestly my favourite out of the 3 movies, not too sure. But pacing was fixed, i didn’t initially like this but on rewatch, this film holds so much  new emotional weight and conflict. 
There wasn’t really one sole antagonist which really worked with cable and firefist having internal conflict driving them. 
Lost half a mark bc the pedo cunts from that institution deserved a worse demise.

So fucking good, it’s grounded and sad behind all its comedy. I love this film so much, it did not have to be this deep but it was.
Lost half a mark for slight pacing issues

Watched with the boys, the movie got better. GC goes crazy with the lads. 
Shoutout samra and maddy for ur service! 
I still got chills with how insane the hero shots were, we will never see something like this again

   SICK. no one can change my mind.
   Camerawork is in top standards as it should be in a James Wan film.
   Don't care that this movie defies physics in everyway.

   It was the best send off for Brian with a heartfelt ending.

5. Aquaman

   Action and movement is perfect. Held back by some of the DC and studio that effect the story but overall its solid.

   How the water is in this film doesn't really make sense but I let it goes after it started hurting my head thinking about it.

6. The Conjuring 2
7. Insidious: Chapter 2

   Meh. Felt more like a trad horror movie than James Wan's unique out of the box horror. Wasn't bad, but wasn't memorable.

   The suspenseful sequences were always going to be good, but they felt more like scary scenes scattered throughout the run time rather than something pushing the story forward.
   Was cool seeing the revelation back to the original film through, probably being the best part of the film.
