the great thing about the live action How To Train Your Dragon is that it’s basically a one for one remake of the animated version, so it’s really good. however, that’s also the drawback of this movie, it feels redundant. 

BUT i don’t care that it’s redundant. this is a fun movie, and bringing such a great movie to live action is awesome, especially when capturing all of the action packed scenes like when Hiccup figures out how to ride Toothless through instinct, the flight scene with him and Astrid, and the final battle with the Red Death. even the quieter moments like Toothless and Hiccup bonding were cool. i’m not going to downplay this movie, hence why i rated it the same as the animated version (but obviously animated is the better one), because this live action adaptation does it better than everything Disney has done.

the landscapes and dragons looked amazing. the casting was great and i loved all of the characters. this film still captures the essence of the animated version. i cannot wait for the sequel live action adaptation

The Karate Kid Ranking

unfortunately this movie didn’t do it for me as it was quite underwhelming. considering Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) just finished up being the sensei of a Sekai Taikai champion, i would have assumed that him and Mr Han (Jackie Chan) teaming up and training an already-experienced Kung-Fu martial artist for a more prestigious tournament would make more sense. the Five Boroughs Tournament seemed like a lowly event for such an experienced fighter. yeah, there was a $5k prize which motivated Li to win to help Mia’s dad, but the plot should have involved a bigger tournament with more stakes. i suppose it’s an okay plot point, but just an underwhelming way to go about it.

i LOVED how they revealed the creation of Miyagi-Do Karate. of course its been explained throughout the movies and tv show, but the fact that it was the Han family that taught Shimpo Sensei Kung-Fu that later influenced Miyagi-Do Karate was just so cool to me. 

with Ralph Macchio coming off of Cobra Kai and Jackie Chan ing this universe, i expected a lot more callbacks to both projects. as a Cobra Kai fan, other fans and i were constantly hoping we’d see an appearance of Dre (Jaden Smith) from The Karate Kid (2010) in the show. and i guess with the return of Mr Han in this film, i was expecting a cameo or any mention of Dre, but nope. speaking of more cameos, i may be in the minority of thinking here but i strongly believe that the return of Julie Pierce (Hillary Swank) from The Next Karate Kid (1994) would have been perfect, considering we’ve just learnt of Han’s friendship to Mr Miyagi.

here’s my proposal for a more polished movie, so don’t read on if you don’t want to hear me nerd out: first, the connections between the characters must be established. obviously the movie shows the connection between Mr Han and Daniel: Mr Han and Mr Miyagi were friends, and they talked about Daniel a lot. Daniel and Julie Pierce likely met at Mr Miyagi’s funeral in 2011, and it’s implicitly referenced in Cobra Kai that “it has been a long time since this dojo had more than one student,” which was Julie. to explain why Julie never appeared in the Cobra Kai, we should assume she wasn’t interested in teaching Karate. when the events of Cobra Kai unfolded, such as tournaments, rivalries, and YouTube fights, Julie kept her distance, believing the dojo wars distracted from Miyagi’s deeper lessons.

now that the connections have been established, i will list the aspects of this movie that should remain the same. Mr Han trains Bo and Li Fong in Shaolin Kung-Fu, focusing on discipline, flow, and internal strength. after the brutal death of his brother Bo after a tournament, Li and his mother leave Beijing and move to New York. Li is forbidden by his mother to train, as she’s too scared that he will end up like Bo. Li becomes the target of relentless bullying by Conor Day, who is a powerful and aggressive karate student trained at the Demolition Martial Arts dojo. Li meets Mia and they fall for each other. Li helps teach her dad Kung-Fu to assist him in the boxing match to pay off his debts, but ultimately ends up losing. Li feels guilty about the loss, mirroring how he did nothing to help Bo when he was being attacked. his anger leashes out, and Mr Han sees the damage Li is doing to himself, and pushes him to enter into the tournament to help Mia’s dad pay off the hospital bills and his debts, and fix up the pizzeria. Mr Han seeks the help of Daniel. 

here’s where things change for the better. it needs to be longer. bigger tournament, bigger stakes, bigger cash prize. it only makes sense considering how good of a fighter Li was in this film. after Bo’s death, Li is shaped by his grief, rage, and fear. Daniel tries to teach Li balance, self-control, and the spiritual/philosophical core of Miyagi-Do but it’s not enough. it’s only when Daniel really understands this side of Li, does he realise Julie is the only one who can help Li the way Mr Miyagi once helped her. despite not carrying on the Miyagi legacy, she still took the lessons to heart and quietly taught a small group of at-risk youth. nothing public, no commercialisation, no tournaments. she didn’t want to bring attention to herself or Miyagi-Do. her teachings were rawer, more emotional, and less polished than Daniel’s, focusing more on survival and resilience than tradition or honour. Li’s training begins to blend Mr Han, Daniel, and Julie’s teachings into a new hybrid, a balanced mix of Miyagi-Do, emotional resilience, and Shaolin Kung-Fu.

i didn’t mind the tournament too much in this film, but i feel like with the addition of these three mentors, each round Li progresses should represent the three styles: a precise Kung Fu form (Mr Han), a strategic defensive sparring match (Daniel), and an aggressive, emotional fight (Julie). In the final round where he faces Conor Day, Li should face pressure from his past trauma. Li must balance all three styles by using flow, defense, and controlled aggression to win.

Star Wars Ranking

the opening battle sequence lasts for a very long time and never really grabbed my attention, even on rewatch. although, it kinda plays out like an episode of the series before the real plot kicks in: the mission to retrieve Jabba the Hutt’s kidnapped son. i quite like this idea that the Jedi have to balance between this moral grey area of helping a gangster so that they can use hyperspace routes during the war.

i actually enjoyed the dynamic between Anakin and Ahsoka. their relationship starts to feel genuine over the course of the movie. you can see the potential of their bond, even if the film doesn’t explore it deeply. i kinda liked Ahsoka’s early connection with Captain Rex. it’s not a major focus, but you get the sense that she respects him and that he sees something promising in her.

it was cool to see Dooku’s manipulation throughout the movie. other than that, i’m excited for the Clone Wars series.

Star Wars Ranking

while i never really cared for the clones when i was a child, watching this film as an adult has made me realise that the clones are now one of my favorite parts of the prequel trilogy. the scene of Obi-Wan finding out about the clones is very ominous. obviously as a child i never thought about how dehumanising the act of creating a clone army for war was. the Jedi didn’t commission this army, Sifo-Dyas did under mysterious circumstances, and yet they don’t reject it. they accept it, and that decision is crazy. not to mention how the Jedi, who are guardians of peace and diplomacy, are pushed by Palpatine’s deceitful plans to become generals in a war they didn’t vote for, commanding troops no one asked for, created for a conflict that’s been orchestrated behind the scenes. the Geonosis arena battle and the arrival of the clones is so cool though. also Palpatine is so ominous while overlooking his clone army, knowing exactly how this army will be the reason for the downfall of the Order. 

then there’s Anakin and Pé. i know the romance subplot gets made fun of for the dialogue (and yes, some of it is clunky), but there’s something real about how it unfolds. Anakin is someone who’s never learned how to process emotion, as the Jedi taught him to suppress it. he was taken from his mother when he was young and told to forget her, but never given the emotional tools to do so. when he dreams of her suffering, it breaks him, and when he finds her dying in his arms, he lashes out. meanwhile, pe is burdened by duty of serving the Republic, first as queen and now as senator, constantly putting the needs of others above her own. their scenes together feel awkward at times, but it works because their love is awkward.

Attack of the Clones has its flaws, but on a rewatch it’s something much darker and complex. it’s a story about the fading of innocence, both in Anakin and in the Republic. Watching Anakin struggle with his fears, desires, and the heavy expectations placed on him by the Jedi, you see a tragic figure shaped by a world that offers him no real guidance. At the same time, the Republic, once a symbol of democracy and hope, feels like it is fracturing due to corruption, fear, and manipulation. This leaves its people vulnerable to the darkness it was meant to prevent.

Mission Impossible Ranking

Star Wars Ranking

i have begun rewatching Star Wars, but this time, in complete chronological order, as in every single show and movie starting with Young Jedi Adventures all the way through to Star Wars Episode 9: The Rise of Skywalker.

after rewatching this movie as an adult, i noticed so many details i missed the first time. one thing that really stood out to me now is the politics. the Republic is shown as inefficient, ineffective, and heavily influenced by corporate powers, such as the Trade Federation. the Senate spends more time arguing over procedures and bureaucracy than actually solving the blockade of Naboo. a whole planet is being invaded, and the most powerful governing body in the galaxy can’t agree on how to respond. that kind of political gridlock is far too familiar.

further, Palpatine’s rise to power was not through a coup, but instead he’s elected legally and democratically. he uses the system against itself, taking advantage of the Senate’s inaction. it mirrors so much of our history, where leaders gained power through deception and exploited the systems meant to protect people.

i also realised how important Qui-Gon Jinn is in all of Star Wars. he’s not just a cool Jedi, he’s the only one who really questions the system he’s apart of. the Council relies too much on predictions about the future to guide their decisions. for example, when they said Anakin was too old to be trained and had too much fear, even though he hadn’t done anything wrong yet. Qui-Gon, on the other hand, listens to the living force, trusts his instincts, and shows comion. that’s what makes Duel of the Fates so impactful. it’s not just one of the greatest fights in the franchise, it’s the moment that decides Anakin’s future. had Qui-Gon survived, Anakin might have had a mentor who understood him, instead of being handed to an Order that feared emotion and demanded obedience. that one death changes everything.

the pacing is a bit slow, especially during the podrace, and i know some people don’t like Jar Jar Binks (although i don’t mind him in this film). looking past all that is a surprisingly layered story about how democracies fall, how institutions fail the people they’re meant to protect, and how one comionate voice could’ve changed everything if it had been heard.

Mission Impossible Ranking

Mission Impossible Ranking

Mission Impossible Ranking

everyone seems to love this movie, but for some reason I didn’t love it as much. i don’t even really have any complaints about it, i just didn’t find it as captivating as other instalments in this franchise. 

there is definitely some great stuff in this movie. first, after watching Rebecca Ferguson in Dune part 1 and 2, it was great to see her in this film. second, everything leading up to the opera sequence like Benji following Ethan’s instructions, and everything at the opera is fantastic. third, the underwater server room heist was so suspenseful, and one of the tensest sequences i’ve seen in a while.

Mission Impossible Ranking

the scenes at the Kremlin were amazing. from the infiltration, the wall screen illusion in the hallway, and Ethan’s escape simply by changing clothes, to the bombing. each moment was captivating. 

the sequence at the Burj Khalifa was so awesome. i loved how they had to adapt to so many things (and unfortunately being forced to ditch the masks which are my favourite parts of the mission impossible franchise). namely with Ethan needing to scale the side of the tower and then swinging back into the room which was all extremely nerve-racking.

i enjoyed the addition of Jeremy Renner’s character Brandt. i found his story quite interesting with Ethan.

Mission Impossible Ranking

like I said in my previous review: the backlash to Mission Impossible 2 was the best thing that could’ve happened to this franchise. MI 2 was all style, no substance. MI 3 is intense, and where the series finds its identity as a humanising story about Ethan Hunt. 

the opening scene is amazing. it instantly draws you in with Ethan helpless and panicking. Philip Seymour Hoffman’s character is great and probably my favourite antagonist in the franchise. his line 

“you have a wife? a girlfriend? because if you do, i’m gonna find her, and i’m gonna hurt her. I’m gonna make her bleed, and cry, and call out your name.”

it’s simply terrifying. he doesn’t monologue. he just promises pain and delivers it.

i loved the action stunts in this film, like the heist at the Vatican (especially the mask scene) and the swing at Shanghai tower. the bridge scene was very unexpected but executed really well.

furthermore, Benji is introduced in this film, and he easily becomes my favourite character.

Mission Impossible Ranking

there’s a strange shift from the first movie, which was more clever with twists, to this one that’s very dramatic but not in a way that helped the plot. some of the stunts are cool, like Ethan Hunt climbing the cliff (very suspenseful), and the motorbike chases. the lab scenes was where the movie slightly piqued my interest, as i loved him sneaking around and losing communications. the twist towards the end with Ethan and Hugh was awesome of course. 

despite the weak plot, i appreciate what they were trying to do. they experimented by trying to make the franchise bigger and more dramatic/overdone, and the fact that this movie didn’t land with a lot of fans was a good thing. it pushed the writers to rethink the direction of the franchise.

Mission Impossible Ranking

the first Mission: Impossible is pretty good. the opening mission is great, i wasn’t expecting any of it to happen. i love it when movies start off immediately with something that disrupts the plans.

while watching this, it was clear to me that the Bourne Identity (which i loved) took heavy inspiration from this film, obviously with Ethan Hunt and Jason Bourne becoming rogue agents, which i found super interesting with them trying to escape everything. 

furthermore, the vault scene is the highlight of the movie of course. very suspenseful. and the masks are my favourite thing ever. never knowing whether someone is someone else or not.

however, i was not a big fan of the final sequence. i thought the helicopter in the tunnel was kinda eh

American Pie Ranking

American Pie Ranking

American Pie Ranking

extremely overhated in my opinion. i enjoyed this very much, and loved all of the characters, especially Matt Stifler towards the end, which was quite reminiscent of American Wedding. The actor does a great job at mimicking Steve’s mannerisms and personality, and he’s really believable as Steve’s brother. this movie captures the charm of the original three before it, and is a good spinoff
