Twister (1996)
Great storm chaser film
I think if it wasnt for twister, Dvds wouldnt exist since this was the first film to be brought out on the media. People seem to give this film a bad wrap, but i really dont understand why because its cool and it does have hallmarks of real science theory being put into practice. The late great Bill paxto plays bill harding. I like that they kept it his name. He is the ex of storm chaser dr jo played by helen hunt and both actors click and were the right choice for the roles. He has a new girlfriend but after the storms get bad she goes leaving bill and joe. The 90s cgi in this is pretty good and the twisters were believable to the best they can be. Jos friends were all cast well and include seymore hoffman and alan ruck amoungts its cast. They felt real the characters and the actors playing them which is rear for films and especially disaster movies. Also sometimes the weather makes the best villian in a film and in twister it truely is. Overall a great disaster movie and believable cast make it a fun watch.
The Killer in My Backyard (2021)
never rent out your guest house
If anything can be learned from this, its that you probably shouldn't rent out a guesthouse of a house you have just moved into, and for a seeminly over eager man without doing a background check, and without consulting your fiancee first. Yet here we are. Eric and allyson are the unlucky couple. You can see josh is untrustworthy from the beginning and has a semi strange obsesion with erics asistant. The plot is predictable in places but atleast the acting was not to terrible in this and was passable. But the plot itself and how it unfolds until the end was overall just a bit boring but worth a watch still.
Spieleabend (2024)
Dumb fun
Spiecleabend or blame the game is a fun movie. Its dumb in its plot but in a good way. Jan is riding his bike in a park with hid dog. Until he goes off and has sex with another dog. The dogs owner runs as they both do to break them up, which is where he meets pia and the two soon hit it off and its que bedroom time as with a lot of netflix films. Then its game night a tradition for her family and jans friend alex helps him after some mishaps happen. The whole film is just dumb fun really. Nothing too over the top but its was fun to watch. The games were good and the heated compitition with her ex was a load of fun to watch to. Overall just a good comedy.
Svaniti nella notte (2024)
not to bad
I dont understand why anabelle wallis's voice was dubbed in this. But anyway septimo or vanished in to the night is a new italian netflix film. A husband and wife are in the middle of a custody battle. The kids dont seem to know or care really. They go to staty with their father. The place is being renivated and mistake number one they are sleeping in a seperate building to hime and surprisingly the kids go missing, while getting them back he has to do a deal with a guy. He drops cock in the street and no one even seems to stop him for somereason. Acting not bad but a lot of things dont make sense in this.
6 Bullets (2012)
samsan will find you
6 bullets is a pretty good action film, its not over the top with its violence and such and its fun to watch. Jean claude plays a man that works in finding missing people. But after saving a kid, an exploading car somehow catches a mansion on fire and kills two young girls that were hidden, forcing samsan out of his job and into a butcher shop instead, but after the teenage daughter of couple is kidnapped while on holiday, he has to come back to it once more just so he can save his reputation and her life. Its a good plot which we have seen many times before but i feel its done well enough here with a pretty good cast and overall I enjoyed it.
Revenge for My Mother (2022)
very unrealistic
Ive seen a lot of these made for tv thrillers. But something about this one seemed even more unrealistic then the others. So theres this woman called audrey she runs a class for mothers after giving birth, where none of the woman even look like they have given birth before. Her husband matt seems a bit of a wet blanket. We also have an ex convict called brookyln, who somehow instantly gets a job doing the tech for audrey, which makes matt feel out of place, things happen and he gets accused of stuff which aubrey believes despite knowing matt for ten years. Acting is not believable and the events leading up to what brookyln does are just so strange and overall a werid film but the plot had a good premise overall so not completly bad.
The Walk (2015)
A good walk
With this film it might just show the extent that joseph gorden levitts acting ability can reach to. Not only does he not have a bad french accent, but his also pretty convincing in this biopic in his character of philippe petit. A man who in 1974 did something that you would think would be impossible. He tightrope walked the space between the twin towers. Coming from the documentary titled man on a wire this film explores more of phillps past. Thats where we start in paris where he first started little shows for the crowds as a mine but after going to a circus he gets a taste for a new venture and once tightrope walking the cathedral of notre damn. He along with new friend anni they make a dash for new york and thats where the plan is put in action. I liked the story and phillip giving more to his character and it all came to something even better near the end as he does the impossible and its magnificent. Levitte is great and all the cast did well. Robert has made a great biopic here for sure.
The French Dispatch of the Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun (2021)
not the best of wes, but had its moments
Out of all of andersons films, this is not my favourite by a long shot. It was maybe a little too long in places and just a bit boring . The three stories themself whinin this though i thought were written well. The overall theme is about journalists in france that are gathered by bill murray as he is dying so wants an obituary written. First story is black and white like all are for parts. Adrian brody goes to a prison to see the paitings of a dangerous man playbed by del toro. He fell in love with one of the prison officers se we get a few nice shots of leah sydoux naked but its tastefully down. But they get into an argument with brody. Second story is about a rebel chess player. Mcdormand is the journalist.timothy and another lady get into a fight and it reminds me of les miss. Lastly we get onto jeffry wrights journalist. The great william dafoe is in this one and its about a kidnapping. The artist one with brody was my favourite overall but despite the great cast and everything there was just a lack of excitment.
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024)
the heat is on
As soon as I heard the song I knew we were in for a ride. It has been somehow forty years since axle had destroyed half of beverley hills while pursuing bad guys and now his back after a daughter that dosn't know he exists is thretened. So naturally foley goes back to where he once comes from we have some familier faces back which are all great to see plus joseph gordan levitt as a cop and kevin back as a wise crackin son a. Anyway eddie does not look like he has aged a day. The action was cool and it was great to see foley once more grace our screens. Im happy netflix brought to life a forth outing and I really enjoyed this film.
Immaculate (2024)
Good nun horror
Immaculate might not be an immaculate film, but it sure was an enjoyable watch. I think this movie got negative reviews because in all fairness it is a lot shorter than it deserves to be and also maybe there isn't really a lot of horror to it. But the real horror within this film comes from that of human interaction and in this form of some insemination from an artefact. Its a while before we see our leading lady but first we get a young woman trying to run away from some nuns in what looks like a ritual of some kind. Then we see her. I feel Sydney Sweeney shined in this and thus far is one of my favourite performances by her. She plays sister Cecelia who's joining a convent in Italy where her job is to take care of other nuns in their last days. Its not long though before the second act befalls her and soon Cecelia finds herself in trouble and it becomes a fight for survival. We get a few scares that id say feel a little cheap but are satisfying enough. Alvera morte of money heist fame was a good secondary character and he gave off bad vibes from the get go. As did the other antagonist's that I wont mention here due to spoilers. The strong bloody violence indicated by the age gape was a good warning and something that Like when its played off well and not over used. Happily in this film its done well and tastefully enough that you route for Cecelia and hope she makes it. Overall immaculate is a decent nun horror film that was made well, visually appealing and boosts a pretty good cast.
Imaginary (2024)
use your imagination
Imaginary is our latest in blumhouses produced horror film line and although this does border more on thriller in places there is almost enough for the horror genre. Jessica moves back into her childhood home with her husband and his two kids from a previous marriage and off the bat you can tell the house has history with her. Youngest daughter alice discovers a rather disheveled but intact looking teddy in the basement and instantly becomes friends; though as things go its clear something of supernatural origins has taken a hold of alice and soon jessica and taylor find themselves fighting something unimaginable. The bears design was pretty good and creepy when it moved. Decent cast and overall though it was let down by too many scenes where just nothing happens.
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024)
likeable forth film
I think ghostbusters frozen empire was a pretty likeable film for its forth outting. No I dont think it was the best of the franchise, and it does fail at certain points but being a fan of the series to me this was an enjoyable continuation of the series. We get a little before scene of the early 1900's, showing a group of firefighters and they discover a frozen room and bodies, one whos hand is still on the grammer phone. That sets us up for who the villian will be this time around. Cut straight to the spengler family and they seem at home in the eco one going around and trying to capture a blue serpent like ghost. We get a few new characters this time to who are probably only going to be in this one.kumail nanjiani plays nadeem. A man selling his great grandmas things, one happening to be an orb that houses the frozen ghost.patten oswalt as a dr we dont see for long but he knows things. Emily alyn lind as melody, a ghost that phoebe plays chess with in the park and james acaster as lars. He felt out of place but I thought his scientist character was pretty good. They all help once new york is thetened by the new entity and it might take everything they have plus the apperence of our great legacy characters including someone else we havent seen for a while. Cgi was great. Characters and cast all did well and overall frozen empire was a fun forth film in this franchise.
The Wedding Ringer (2015)
we all need a friend like hart
I think out of all the kevin hart comedy films ive watched, this certainly has to be one of the best. His subtle in a not over the top way and he gives real heart to his character. He plays jimmy. A man that gets hired by people to be the best man at their weddings to make the groom look and feel better about themsleves. One down on his luke man. Doug played by josh gad wants him but jimmy didnt think he would end up making actuall friends and teach doug a valible lesson at the same time. The rest of the hired best men all bring the fun and it was well cast and oveall a pretty great comedy unlike some of the same type.
The Art of the Steal (2013)
decent heist film
The art of the steal was a pretty good heist film, ive never read the book but i feel this probably did justice Kurt russell is a great actor. In this he plays crunch. A theif thats good at his job but after something goes wrong and he ends up in jail he wants to do one last big heist before giving up for good. This had a good mix of comedy and mystery. He is also a daredevil. Matt dillion., terence stamp. Jay buchnel and more make up the esemble cast and eventhough they felt a little mismatched they all worked together well as his crew. Overall the art of the steal was enjoyable and has some good twists that helped it become more enjoyable.
A Family Affair (2024)
not the best of romances
Sometimes romantic comedies work. And this does to an extent . I appreicate nicole kidman and zac efrons acting, side not man efron is looking old poor guy. But i dont believe these two as a romantic pairing. Im grateful for zoey kind here and ive aways enjoyed seeing her in films. She plays zara. The assitant of efron but she does not get the respect that she deserves from him. Also the title of this film sands like a made for tv movie which does not help its appeal. I thought there were some genuinly sweet bits here and there and it even got a giggle out of me . Acting was ok throughtout but as a romanti film this just did not work.
Duel (1971)
the ultimate Ego match
I think theres a metophor in this movie somewhere. Something about how someones is always bigger and they fight to prove it. Anyway this is speilburgs first film and I believe this was a great steping stone to some of his greats. Not to say this isnt great. I think this is a pretty good mimamalistic film that utilises a little cast and real locations to really push the narative forword. Dennis Weaver plays David Mann a normal man that gets an annoying oil rig driver in front of him. Some honks are exchanged and the other guy ends up trying to go all joy ride on david. Also fun to point out only david and his wife are characters that are actually named which really does give more humanity to the main cast members. The suspense was well done here and I liked how the story unfolded. Overall a pretty good film.
Beast (2022)
not believable but thrilling
Beast was not a very believable movie. In terms of how idris elba can survive the attack he does and come out almost virtually unarmed. And secondly the acting itself felt out of place. So we have elba as dr nick. He and his two daughters are going to take a trip to south africa as a bit of a bonding trip they dont really seem all that hyped but his mate david is there to show them around. But before they go we get a cutscene begin with some poachers attacked by a very angry lion. Of course you already know the deal and you can telll nick and his daughters will be fighting for survival against the beast that does not let up. The characters are written pretty dumb, acting bad in places but overall an enjoyable thriller watch for what it is.
Hidden Murder Island (2023)
a little confusing
There are several things in this film that are confusing. The first of which is why did fey and her friend decide to go camping in the middle of a desterted island. Anyway something happens her friend dies and it leaves fey with ptsd back at her parents very big house. Now it takes a dr to tell the three of them she has ptsd and there was absolutly no need for those scene at all. Fey also seems to have amnesia and memoreis are blurry as to what really happened on the island. There whole film follows her and her suspicions towards the guy that somehow saved her and other people around. Her dad is a bit of a p really her mother is ok. This was neither good or bad in the end.
A View to Kill For (2023)
intriguing plot not more
Theres this woman called molly. Shes living with her husband an two kids and they are tired of having to relocate everytime the bad people come to chuck them out. One day she learns of her fathers passing, a man that she dosnt really know and for some reason has left everything to her. This includes a not to shabby looking mansion. The people in this town are snobby and are probably jelous of this families luck in moving there. But thats not all of course somebody wants the family gone and there a mysterious ex fiancee of the fathers sniffing around. Acting was not great and the film was predicatble ok watch but aside from the plot being intriging there was not much else.
Danger Lurking Under My Roof (2023)
interesting plot, bad acting
Danger lurking or living in danger is a 2023 made for tv thriller film. We have this woman called roxanne.she lives with daughter macie. Who had the better acting of this film in my opinion and husband mark. Mark has a program to rehome people less fortunate as they themselves live in a mansion that looks un used and they probably dont need. Ella and lucy move in and they live in the garden of the house, they have a secret though and its not long before roxanne who is stuck up for no reason has to help the other lady after their daughters are kindapped. Predicatle in the plot, acting not great but this one atleast did have a pretty good plot.
Cold Copy (2023)
needed more umph
I was expecting this film to go somewhere and despite that it felt underwelming though at the same time I believe it was brought back to life by a pretty good ending. Bel powley plays mia scott ,someone to old to be student and I feel sorry for her, she looks tired. Anyway I enjoyed her performance the most. Mia is a journalism student trying to get through college despite her lectuer diane not making things that easy for her. She makes them write a piece. An expose of someone and she befriends this boy named igor and everything goes from there. I didnt think it was all that thrilling but I appreciate the cast and overall still an interesting watch.
Trigger Warning (2024)
Jessica makes this
I think at this point netflixs roster of these action thriller films are starting to ware thin. Good for what they are but beyond that they don't offer a whole lot. I believe trigger warning is one such films but it does offer something and that is the return of Jessica alba to acting. She has not aged and im sorry but theres no wat that woman is in her 40s. Anyway she plays parker here, a ex army fighter and special ops thats trying to find out the cause of her fathers death. There are some local hicks in the town that you just know are bad news. The other good point here is the action and the badass energy that alba brings is well done. A good mix of a cast here that overall is not the best but I still enjoyed it.
Madame Web (2024)
Cool spidey spin off
I don't entirely understand the negative views. This film is not garbage. If you watch it and understand it its a pretty good story with some interesting future characters to be introduced. This movie focusses on Cassandra web, played by the ageless Dakota Johnson. She's a first responder who after almost drowning develops final destination syndrome. As with most origins she finds it hard at first dealing with the power, until she realises its intension. A bad guy called elsikel wants to kill three woman he has a dream about before they become superhero's in the future and bring about his demise. Quick side note Adam Scott does seem out of place being in a serious film, but I appreciate him as an actor so its always nice to get more Adam Scott. Julia, Anya and Mattie are the three young woman, who Cassandra has a hard time babysitting. We have the wonderful up and comer Sydney Sweeney, everyone's Favourite Backpack talker Isabella Merced and another new face. Celeste O Connor. Fine actors and well chosen for their characters in this. I thought the film flowed, the action was good and the vibe I got was rather well done. Overall very happy with this spin off and would look forword to a sequal.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)
Great animated sequal
Its been a year since miles and the other spider people saved new york from kingpin. Not a lot has changed but miles is taller and because of the explosion a new villion called the spot has been created. We start by seeing gwens side of things. The art style is different over there and I really liked how it was done. She has her own problems going on snd after reveling herself to her father shes saved by two new spider people . We then go to miles universe and his still in school for some reason. Gwen meets him and everything evolves from there. I loved the spider chase and the amount of different spider people we meet. A heavy hitter but of course we get a to be continued before more action starts. Its a good decision to make it a two parter. Great animation as always and overall just a great film.
Unfrosted (2024)
Pop tarts are cool, this not so much
Ill start this review by saying that I appreciated this being turned into a comedy. That way its more light hearted and does not make it boring like some based on real life stories. Seinfeld as our main man was a good choice. I dont have anything bad to say about any of the cast of this really they all did their job well and brough fun to each character. If its what the real kellogs looked like itn side then its definatly tasty. The plot itself and how its executed might be something I dont like as much it just felt like there could have been more. Too much clunky diolgue and a few boring parts that never really went anywhere. Nevertheless an interesting film, but still not a great one.
