Spy (2015)
Decent action-comedy
Spy is a movie that is thankfully more funny than what it could have been.
Especially Jason Statham and Melissa Mccarty has great comedic timing.
Weak points are the action sequences, which are never as funny or interesting as they could be and the excessive use of swearing, which seems mainly to be there to justify the R-rating.
Flugt (2021)
Tough to forget documentary on being a refugee
Flee (Flugt) is a Danish documentary about an afghan family of refugees.
The movie is really well put together and doesn't overstay it's welcome (it clocks in at 85 minutes). It is made mostly of animation which allows for scenes, that would otherwise be difficult to reconstruct in a documentary. The main character is likeable and believable.
Definently worth seeing and will give you a new perspective on being a refugee.
The Power of the Dog (2021)
Worlds longest foreplay
Maybe i'm too stupid to properly appreciate this movie, but I found it to be boring and confusing. Sure, the final shot had some swagger, but all the movie felt like brokeback mountain for arthouse cinema.
On the plus side, all actors in this movie are doing a great job especially Kirsten Dunst as the drunk mother. I also really enjoyed. Jesse Plemons who channels his inner Philip Seymour.
Love, Rosie (2014)
Dislike, Rosie
Even though Love, Rosie follows a beaten path, it fails to include any of the familiar charms of the rom-com genre. It's lacking humor, it's not as raunchy as it thinks, the characters are not likeable or charming. The movie begins with an unexpected pregnancy, but then seems to forget it after a while, much like the titular character, who hooks up with the childs father after seeing his six-pack - even though he has been away for their childs entire childhood. On top of all this: The movie looks like it has been shot in a 00's music video.
The one redeeming trait, is that Lily Collins and Sam Claflin are both very attractive people.
Lethal Weapon (1987)
Two very different cops team up to investigate the murder of a young woman.
Best Quote: I'm too old for this sh*t. - Murtaugh
Pros: Gibson and Glover are perfectly cast as the two cops, who initially hate each other but end up forming a strong bond of friendship. The chemistry between the characters is really what carries the movie, and the dialog is very fresh and entertaining. The action is decent and often very imaginative – especially in the scene were Riggs is pretending to buy coke at a Christmas tree vendor. The characters are all really fleshed out and you totally buy them as real people. It is impossible not to like Riggs and Murtaugh.
Cons: given that most of the story focuses on the relationship between Riggs and Murtaugh, the rest of the plot ends up feeling a bit secondary, and the villains are only okay.
Sentence: Lethal Weapon is easily the best buddy-cop movie of all time, and Gibson and Glover are perfect for each other. It is a movie that you can always watch and that never gets boring. 5/6.
