Ava (2020)
The same old , same old
The protagonist is a female assassin with a military background, works for a clandestine black ops unit has to fight for her own survival as the unit she works for wants her dead since she got curious as why the targets are targets in the first place. Yup, that's the whole plot . Good action scenes and solid performances by Jessica Chastain and John Malkovich, as for the rest of the movie there is no polite way of saying it , but just plain horrible . It won't be a surprise if majority of the viewers walked out of the theaters within the first 20-25 minutes .
The Old Guard (2020)
If you are a die hard Charlize Theron fan , only then, watch this movie .
The only logical reason to watch this movie is that you are a die hard Charlize Theron fan and you have made a mission in your life to watch every movie and video clip she has appeared in . The story writers of this 125 minute "Visual Torture " have ripped off portions of Deadpool , X-men , Wonder Woman and God knows how many other movies , and served up this mess. The Fast n Furious movies are actually Academy Award winning material compared to this . By skipping this movie, you will be actually doing yourself a favor .
The Lodge (2019)
It's a Okay thriller movie
In a nice and short review I would say, if you are huge fan of Riley Keough , you might consider watching this movie .
If you are not, then it's going to be a average run off the mill type of thriller movie . It's nothing to write home about, but at least your money on the movie tickets won't be a complete waste .
I wish Alicia Silverstone had more screen time though .
The Assistant (2019)
The most boring movie ever made
This is by far the most boring movie ever made. I am sure reading The Bible is going to be more thrilling than this movie . If you really hate someone, and want to take away 87 minutes of their life which would never come back, ask them to watch this movie .
Yup! it's that bad .
I have given this movie 1 star rating because , because negative rating is not possible .
The Postcard Killings (2020)
A book of Calculas would be more thrilling than this movie .
A good thriller movie is one which keeps you on the edge of your seat, and keeps you guessing till the end .
This movie, will however make you wish, you had a book of calculas with you, as calculas is more thrilling than this movie .
As the story begins, an young American honeymooning couple is murdered in London and the bride's father, Jacob Kanon , who is a New York retired cop starts investigating the murders to bring the crooks to justice . Soon enough he finds out, similar murders have taken place in other cities of Europe . While, the Police Department of the cities takes a step back and seemingly lets Kanon "investigate" their cases , it is revealed to the viewers that the perpetrators of the crime are actually a team of sister-brother duo, who carried out their killings because they were abused by their father in their childhood and also since their incest relationship would not be accepted in society .
Later on, the story writer decided to drop the "incest" angle, and show the sister-brother duo as two adopted children from different parts of Russia. At the climax of the movie, Kanon, even though on a mission to bring the crooks to justice, decides to give the sister-brother duo an window to escape, dumps his idea of catching them and returns to America . Just before the credits roll in , the sister calls her father who is in prison . Why? Maybe there is a "The Postcard Killers 2" coming up ?
Doesn't calculas sound more entertaining right about now ?
Dangerous Lies (2020)
Not bad, but could have been better .
When I saw the trailers of this movie, I had some decent expectations of this movie to be a nice thriller .
And to say that, these expectations were not met would be a lie . I did enjoy the movie . Only thing is that, I felt that the ending was hurried ; almost like the writer was told that his/ her deadline has been pushed by 3 months and he/ she has to end the story within 2 days .
I liked the work of Camila Mendes and would like to see her in more movies, albeit better story and plot .
That's all folks !
Bloodshot (2020)
This movie should be called Sore Eyes
There is no polite way of saying / writing this, but any and all Fast n Furious movies are better than this , if you know what I mean .
Imagine a student being given a week to submit a book report, but he forgets about it totally , and then on the night before the day of submission he creates his report by going online and " copy n pasting" from Wikipedia and other online resources . I am sure that's how the story of this movie was written .
The lead character is brain washed ( memory wiped and then new memory given ) to do the dirty work of the villain . This concept was lifted right out of "Total Recall " , albeit implemented in reverse for this movie . To get the job done, the villain recruits handpicked injured or dead soldiers from the US military , and then injects some sci fi mumbo jumbo juice into those soldiers turning them into Super Soldiers . This portion has been again lifted off " Universal Soldier " & " Iron Man 3 ". Heck , Guy Pearce plays the evil scientist (villain) with the same modus operandi in both Iron Man 3 & Bloodshot .
And oh, the sci fi mumbo jumbo juice I mentioned before , were actually nanites ( nano robots ) in their billions . Didn't this stuff come from the movie 2009 movie , G.I. Joe : Rise of the Cobra ? . Yup, it did !
Another honorable mention is that one of the villain's weapon of choice is robotic arms connected and controlled by his spine . Remember Dr Otto Octavius from Spider man 2 ?
There is only one word to describe this movie, and it's horrible .
Extraction (2020)
It's a Netflix Film
In a nutshell review of sorts, it's , as some reviewer mentioned " Balls-to-the wall" action movie . It ain't gonna win Academy Awards or nominations like 1917 ; it's more of a "The A Team " or " Taken" movie .
Mr Goldilocks ( Chris Hemsworth ) and his supporting cast were amazing . Action sequences were beautifully done . Unfortunately, same cannot be said ( or wriiten ) about the story line . Story wise, it's more of a Fast n Furious movie, if you know what I mean .
If you can get past the story line , it's a bang for your money ; a very good bang .
