I know Connery and Cage are the most talked about for their chemistry and individual performances, but to me Ed Harris was the showstealer. He had the best arc out of the leading trio and gave that performance his all. The "I will not give that order!" scene he had with Michael Biehn was iconic.

This felt like a more "controlled" Michael Bay movie, in that it didn't descend into straight lunacy (for better or worse) and a lot more thoughtfulness was put into the narrative (Harris' arc and motivations). Yeah, his tropes were scattered around, but it did not overwhelm the content of the film.

I hate using "subjectively" and "objectively", but for this very rare comparison I think this is objectively (in my subjective opinion) Bay's best movie. Subjectively, the crown belongs to Bad Boys II. Too ridiculous and nihilistic for its own right, but at that point who cares?

Three separate stories all tied together neatly by the end of the film. My favorite section was "The Sword". It contained great drama and action before the Predator got involved. The action in "The Bullet" didn't necessarily work for me, but the character development and premise was still solid. The animation was also very good, and perfectly fitting for a film like this.

A solid installment of the franchise. Ana de Armas can absolutely carry a solo film in this universe. The choreography and camera work in the set pieces were fantastic. I found one particular battle to be too silly, even for John Wick standards. The story, mainly towards the end got paper thin but was serviceable for this movie. This is definitely worth a watch for general action or John Wick fans.

From cult classic to Hollywood sequel, 28 Weeks Later both pleases and underwhelms.

To get the bad out of the way, yeah a lot of characters made a lot of poor decisions throughout the course of the film. The script could have been a lot better in that regard. And a particular scene with a helicopter was just absolutely ludicrous. Would have worked in Zombieland, but definitely not this. The kids weren't compelling, and were given some of the worst decisions of the film. The cinematography, being more crisp than the original film's, ends up adding onto the "Hollywood sequel" comparison as it lost the "grime" that made the original film so special. No Danny Boyle also meant none of that kinetic, music-video like energy we had in the original, and that's in regard to both the calm and scary scenes. Basically, the movie played it straight in it's technical merits.

On the positive side, the premise and involvement from the US military was a genius idea, especially with the role the military took when the outbreak kicked off again. Felt pretty timely back then with the criticism surrounding the War on Terror. The infected breakout scenes along with the later military engagements were also well shot and edited, even if I disagreed with the choice of cameras in this film.

It's completely understandable how many look down on this film, but it was not completely disposable. And finally, in a matter of weeks (no pun intended) we get a follow up to this franchise after the brutal cliffhanger it left viewers on for over 15 years. Whether this movie is "canon" or not in the timeline of the 28 Years Later, the ending left viewers ready for more.

Great 90s action and suspense. It's a solid thrill-ride from start to finish, with a fantastic scenario and premise, and solid performances and curveballs within the plot too. It may not break new ground, but it's still a good overall film.

This film screams early 2000s in all of the worst possible ways. From overdone action scenes (random explosions applying to things not even within the radius) to its pulsing electronic music during the action scenes.

Aside from Banderas, not a single actor gave a damn about this movie. They were either overacting or phoning it in. No middle ground.

Beautifully written and acted, The dialogue from this film is going to be stuck with me for the coming days.

1977 Theatrical Cut: 4/5 Stars
1997 Special Edition and all later versions: 3½/5 Stars

Watched the Theatrical Cut. After rewatching Revenge of the Sith in theaters last month, Rogue One on Star Wars Day, then binging both seasons of Andor before the finale, this was the most logical movie to watch next. Would have felt weird to watch all that build up and not see the Death Star getting destroyed.

This film never ceases to be amazing, and only gets enhanced because of the material that I've mentioned before, even if the tone is more fun than dark like in Andor and R1.

And there's the end of the Mission: Impossible film saga.

The first hour was super rough as it had heavy exposition and constant flashbacks. If viewers didn't see any of the previous ones (especially the original and Dead Reckoning), theyd be lost.

As soon as Cruise's mission officially begins and we're past that, we got another solid action movies on our hands. The ing cast was okay, but not as memorable as they were in previous films. Esai Morales is still great as the despicable Gabriel from Dead Reckoning.

Both the plane and submarine stunts were incredibly well done as well.

Overall, this isnt the brilliant and groundbreaking finale someone may expect it to be, but it is a good conclusion nonetheless.

Never in my life did I ever think ill catch this in theaters. Feeling super thankful now.

I made a more in depth review for this film back in October. But honestly I think about this film so much that I can write a book on it if I really wanted to.

First time seeing this since its early access screenings in theaters.

This is probably by coincidence but I loved how they included a real world element for the plot (the rise of AI). In a sense, it almost reminded me of Timothy Dalton's run as James Bond in how they used something topical. The stunts and action scenes may not be as brilliant as they were in Fallout, but this film works as a great new chapter for the M:I franchise. Now let's see how this franchise will conclude on Thursday.

Jumping from MI1 to 6 felt baffling. Plus, I haven't seen this one since it's opening day in theaters (same for 5 and 7 too!).

Yeah, this is still the best one of the bunch so far. It has a great villain that's willing to go toe to toe with Cruise when it comes to stunts and combat, instead of the typical suit wearing one that's always plotting against. The narrative itself was also well done, and the way it handled the twists were great, even if one was easily spoiled by the marketing of the film back then.

This is peak M:I and I hope Final Reckoning can outdo this one.

I haven't seen this film in so long that watching it again felt like watching it for the first time. De Palma's direction is sharp and the 2 big set pieces are fantastic.

Watched the entire MGS4 Documentary Blu-ray feature. This is far superior to the Metal Gear Saga Vol 1 and 2 DVDs, giving detailed breakdowns of the process and a view into KJP's offices during some of the most crucial times of the game's development.

Let's get the elephant in the room out of the way first: No, this isn't as good as Citizen Kane. But without that comparison, this is a damn good movie. The direction and performances kept me into this film from start to finish.The ending was also very good.

A recap of the games but told in a mockumentary perspective. It's structure and how it divided the chapters between the Snakes worked. It worked as a quick recap for the games as all the major details, plot points and characters were covered.

A short but sweet documentary that goes into the development of the 5 Metal Gear games that have been released around this time. The information in the doc is pretty basic, but could be informative to people unfamiliar with the franchise or isn't as invested as the main fans of MGS are.

After re-watching Revenge of the Sith in theaters, it only made sense for this to be the next Star Wars film I'd watch.

The first 2 acts felt like Army of Shadows with a Star Wars skin over it. There were grit, risks and consequences in the Galactic Civil War portrayed in this movie. The third act leaves the grit behind and becomes a more traditional Star Wars film, with its advantages and flaws.

80% of the fan service felt reasonable and appropriate from this movie while the other 20% the film could have gone without. [spoiler character #1]'s CGI felt too video game like and it took me out of the film every time I saw him on screen.

On another note, giving Mads Mikkelsen barely anything to do in a movie isn't a good look.

But I can say for sure that this is the best Star Wars movie that isn't from the original trilogy.

Last January, I read The Odyssey. Amongst reading news about Chris Nolan's film, I saw various comments talking about this film. I decided to check it out.

Both Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche had really good performances. The pacing was slightly slow, but the film was still enjoyable for me. The story was fine, but since this movie only talks about the late portion of the book, I couldn't connect to the characters as strongly. But for what it was, it was a pretty decent film. Not a "must watch" Odyssey adaptation, but a decent one.

Each segment got better than the last, and the final one was nothing short of brilliance. The loose narrative that also intertwined the segments together also worked very well. On a final note, this movie has one of my favorite cameo scenes in recent memory.

In the second half of the movie, the suspense was unbearable. The editing was razor sharp, with some incredibly clever transitions. Joey Pants had one hell of a performance, which felt like him but with the intensity cranked up to 11.

We all have films that we once loved as children, but then rewatching it as an adult you begin to appreciate it a lot less. Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith was one of those casualties for me the most recently.

Aside from Ewan McGregor who I felt had an absolute blast, the acting is very subpar. Sometimes it feels like its being read off of cue cards monotonously or executed in such a whiny fashion.

But the one thing that aged the worst was the CGI. Most of the film felt like an extended video game cutscene, and various action sequences didn't feel believable.

If this film aged poorly, then I dread rewatching both Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. But the positive thing about all three of these films is that they left us fantastic video games and a great animated series from Genndy Tartakovsky.

I love watching this movie on Easter (or October or any time of the year!). The humor and writing as as sharp as the shorts that preceded it, and the ing cast of characters is also good. Hutch is definitely my favorite of the bunch, and I wish he showed up in the later installments to the franchise.

This review may contain spoilers.

We all came in here expecting Blade set in the 1930s, but what we got was something a lot more profound, thoughtful, and musical.

This film successfully explores its themes of appropriation using vampire-zombies as the metaphor, especially when it comes to music. The use of several different film formats may seem jarring on paper, but once witnessed in a proper IMAX theater it is nothing but beautiful. The "generations of music" scene left me in awe on many different levels.

This is a film that has to be seen to be believed, and it makes an excellent example of a non-IP/franchise blockbuster. This may be Coogler's magnum opus (so far).

Watched on Thursday April 17, 2025.

Kinda wasn't for me. It was well acted and well shot with a fantastic premise, but for some reason it just didn't do it for me.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3ALwKeSEYs

This was able at best. The script was pretty messy in this. Some of the characters had really weak arcs. Fortunately, this film did deliver on its set pieces and thrills, even if the bigger ones were featured in the trailers. This did satisfy my itch to see Rami Malek playing another character similar to his in Mr. Robot.

I've been thinking a lot about doing a retrospective to select films released in 2015. This year has been one of the more important ones of the 21st century, and the films featured also tell about the state of the world in that year, as well as having plenty to say about 2025.

Now, onto this film.Back in 2015, this was a tense techno-thriler. Now it feels more grounded in reality than it did in the past. The themes of this film ring more today, and the filmmaking and script has aged gracefully. I don't know what it is about Garland's writing, but he has the same ability as Hideo Kojima to "call" events and trends wayyyyyyyy before they're relevant in today's society. Sometimes on the nose (Civil War), other times not (Ex-Machina, 28 Days Later). That's one of the things I ire most about Alex Garland and his screenwriting.

Watched on Friday November 22, 2019.

Another intense all around experience from Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza. It captures the mundane-ness of war along with the chaos and terror. It's irable how the script was written using the memories of the experiences several of the veterans had, and it only made the movie feel more real. This movie pulled no punches, played nothing safe, and didn't feel cliché in the slightest.

Rutger Hauer carried this movie as hard as he could. It had an interesting premise on paper, but the execution left a lot more to be desired.

What an amazing ensemble cast. The visual effects are still impressive to this day. Whatever shortcomings this film has when it comes to the writing and decision making of the character, the spectacle is enough to have people be more forgiving towards this title.

Another great addition to the Diane Kruger vs Nazis universe. She carried this movie hard and I'm surprised her performance here wasn't spoken about too much during its awards season in retrospect. This is my first film from Fatih Akin and I look forward to watching the other films he has out.

Aside from the fight scene with The Russian, this movie was not it. There is a lot of unintentional comedy throughout the movie. From poor scene transitions to ludicrous death scenes, viewers can get a good time from this movie, but not the good time the filmmakers intended.

This is my first time rewatching this movie after I finished reading the novel. The novel was more detailed and less ambiguous than the film itself, but for the film it is easy to fill in the blanks if you haven't read the novel and seen the movie enough times. The novel also did expand on some details, but had much different character motivations and sequences than some of them in the film. I don't want to spend too much more time comparing and contrasting the film with the novel, so I'll jump straight to the film after this. But do I think the film would be better if it was more loyal to the book? No.

This isn't just 'a' space film. This is THE space movie. Many films have taken influence from this one, and not a single one came close to the quality of this film (even if I loved some of them personally). Out of this world cinematography and editing, outstanding effects for its time and today, and a brilliant narrative about humanity's past, present, and future.

• The Batman

  Taking cues from the Batman: Arkham games narratively and in structure, but with more detective scenes to encourage thinking. Battles should be closer to the Yakuza games than the Arkham ones, due to the more grounded tone and inexperienced Batman.

• Civil War

  Naughty Dog-like action/adventure game, with photography elements.

• Dune

  Open world RPG where players can change or leave the fate of Arrakis. They can align themselves with House Atreides, Harkonnen, the Fremen, or remain independent.

• Django Unchained

  Third person shooter/action game. Players can choose various approaches for the missions.

• Die Hard

  First person shooter game by Teyon, with some puzzle segments. Could be a straight adaptation of the first three movies, or its own original story like Terminator: Resistance and Robocop: Rogue City.

  Yes, I know there's Die Hard Trilogy for PlayStation and the Die Hard Arcade game, but it's time for another imo.

• Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade

  First person shooter with branching paths and multiple endings.

• Pacific Rim

  Action/adventure game with destructible environments, and an online or local multiplayer mode that plays out like a 3D fighting game.
