Bottoms (2023)
Finally a fresh and funny high-school comedy!
I thought this day would never come when i see a high-school comedy that actually makes me laugh from the heart, but now it happened. I was ready for the usual fast foodish no joke comedy movie, but though it's full on lesbian theme, most jokes were really fresh and out of the box and I liked them and the whole movie altogether. It's pure pleasure to see how characters come in and start to build and everyone of them makes a very big pot of very delicious fresh soup. Ive seen Most actors are new to me (new Ayo Edebiri from "The Bear" and Kaia Gerber) all others vere pretty new and very pleasant surprise how many new actors can make a very good movie. It's not a parody, it's rather opposite to all previous hundreds and hundreds high-school comedy movies and seems to me that no deliberate mocking is planned. Instead Bottoms show direction, how those school comedies should be done. Thumbs up!
Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)
Maybe worst MI movie so far
Well after finishing that almost 3 hour movie i felt really confused and lost, exactly like Ethan felt when he got into those "impossible situations" like getting lost in the city, getting lost while driving motorcycle, grabbed by two men, losing internet connection, face generator machine broken and etc... which wasn't a problem in previous MI movies, but here Ethan is like an old man in a wheelchair and helpless like a baby in almost every scene. Handling a parachute well doesnt fill that at all.
75% of the movie is endless dialogues and monologues, talking about that key that nobody knows what it opens or where the keyhole is, but Ethan and everybody else wants that key no matter what... this is just stupid.
Maybe after seeing part II i get the whole picture and point of it all, but now i say part I should be 10 minutes long, not 2.43.
The Fog (2005)
Hallmark meets Shutter Island
I was looking for Shutter Island kind of movies so long, coz it is maybe my all time favourite mystery-horror-thriller flick movies, til i found The Fog. Shut one eye and forgot low rating at once, and there it started to happen. I enjoyed the athmosphere: in a small fishing village near mountains by the bay in autumn. Maggie Grace and Selma Blair doing their best performance of their careers and they both are very enjoyable to watch. Im sure most radioworkers would kill if they could work in that lighthouse station Selma was hosting. Why i wrote this because i dont understand that low rating at all. Its a very top noch horror, without stupid jump scenes or gore and poitless blood splattering. 9/10.
Maggie (2022)
Im a man, and i adore Maggie
Every episode is so much fun an jokes are fresh like a morning smoothie. Maggie is a person who can see another persons future, but not her own future. And she has her own shop where she sells it to clients. Id visit that one now. What a plot.
Rebecca is so beautiful, and in every episode she gets even prettier, so there must be some special makeup artist behind all of that i think. What id like from season two is maybe some dark stuff added, some voodoo or candlelight magic, or something going on in the woods at night maybe. Not so much relations stuff. Thats why -1. And Lou is amazing! Maggis mother and father are just so adorable. Well written, well acted. Thumbs up.
Anyway, best comedy this fall ive seen!
The Unusuals (2009)
Very suprised at 2022 how good it was, and still cancelled.
Well i was few weeks ago really lucky to accidentally discover this amazing and smart cop department tv-show, where so many top actors appear: Jeremy Renner, Amber Tamblyn, Harold Perrineau, Adam Goldberg and many more in one ten episode show. That show aired over a decade ago when tv wasnt so popular like today, and stars first choice was cinema by far.
Cristin Milioti, Adam Driver, Miles Teller, Betty Gilpin, Corey Stoll and many other big names today are doing their first big appearence on screen there, and its so fun to watch.
Cancelling Unusuals other seasons was maybe the stupidest thing in ABC history, but then again maybe Noah Hawley would still create Unusuals season 11 today and we would miss Fargo, dunno.
Maybe some episodes should/could have more tension and thrill, and action scenes a bit longer balanced with all the rest, unusuals would still continue.
Anyway a fun, fresh and full of good crime show was left a shore and hope someone will continue where it was left.
Premium (2006)
Fine piece of art
Thats a really pleasent surprise. Nice one and touched me.
One dude who is trying a breaktrough in a world as an wannabe actor and making money as a gas station employee, and a woman who is getting married soon, but she doesnt know if it is right, because her finacee is a kind of goat but wealthy.
They have some history. They get along again by unfortunate events, and so the story goes.
Zoe Saldaña is so pretty in this movie btw. So i dont understand why all the grain was added, didnt give any good but killed much in picture quality so -2. You can never do 7mm digitally. Hope they remake without digital grain.
The Boys (2019)
Not bad
I liked season one but episode one was a bit boring, too much talk and no action. Nothing happened at all. Lets see what ep 2 and 3 has to offer.
Pitbull. Niebezpieczne kobiety (2016)
Good one.
First of all i wanna say is that movie will give you some thoughts, thats guaranteed. There is a timeline or timeshifts two years back and two forth that will confuse you (saying: wth is happening?), and some very realistic and graphic scenes that will haunt you for days. why, i cant explain. I love idea to brighten everybody about the nature of criminal gangers cruelty and police corruption, and making sense about human overall. Thats pretty well displayed. Actors are really good, make you feel like you are seeing live shooting, what i havent seen really long time in a movie. But the bigger thing was that i didnt understand that in directors eyes was this violence and corruption a problem or did he agreed with it. Or this is just currenrt situation. In the scale of: left me too many questions vs too many answers i give 8/10. There is nothing funny in this movie. Really sad and realistic.
La casa de papel (2017)
Season 4 the best so far
Its a good show to watch overall, but season 4 has been by far the best so far, theres more action, more cliffhangers and more suprises than in previous 3 seasons. Cant wait for season 5 to be released.
Pennyworth (2019)
I give five stars for first five episodes
Well, its a good show to watch actually. It has style, good action and great cast.
If you are looking for some between 7 to 8 rated tv action and comedy then Pennyworth it is.
Pennyworth had good potential to become absolute hit in my list, but Esme.. why did that happen to her?
I hoped she would become badass villain and sexy fixer, but instead they decided to kill her in the middle of the season. why? Series died after Esmes death for me and rest of the season was some real mess i couldnt figure out at all. Those multiple new characters never fitted in and no new strong storyline. Pennyworth himself was lost to without Esme, so why was it nessesary? Still, im glad i had a chance to see that new show. Dont know if i wanna watch season 2.
Holmes & Watson (2018)
Masterpiece in many ways.
This movie is a parodie about Sherlock Holmes movies. And a damn good one.
If you are fan of John C Reilly and Will Ferell (like i am) and a fan of Doyle and Holmes and Watson stories (like me), then this is a movie just for you (me!). Every joke and scene is a full joy and those mockings about previous Sherlock movies is very well succeeded. I laughed and had fun. Btw ive seen many Sherlock movies and series, saw many Reilly and Ferell ones, always looking like, are they fading... and have seen previous comedies about Holmes, they were not very funny, was hopin when will someone do a good and funny one. But now they did this and they did it, its a jackpot for fans and for them (and to myself).
Only complaint i have is about the end. Why the end? When giving so much fun, who thinks about lets end this? This is not normal behaviour and someone should go to see a someone.
If you are new to real comedies what can make piss in your pants, dont be disturbed, piss in pants durng a good comedie movie is ok, really, nobody can smell it coz others have piss in pants too. And its ok if your stomache hurts later. If not, then wasnt a good one. Trust me i know what im talking about.
Magnum P.I. (2018)
I like it!
Its been cool and fun so far. I like actors, story, action and jokes, and most of all beatuful nature of Hawaii. There has not been anything yet i really dont like, so new Magnum is my every week thing 100%. Dont agree with the 1/10 haters at all. There are so many 8/10 series with overcomplexed plots and storys nowdays, when i actually find myself say "wtf was that???" and i find easygoing Magnum really welcome to my house.
Hyena Road (2015)
In top of all afgan/iraqi war movies
Its a very well built movie with a cool pace. Enjoyed every minute of it. I liked it most, because of its much complex and deeper plot than usually in war movies. Ending was really sad, like last time i think when i saw Bambi lost its mother i guess...OK not that sad, but dramatical at its best (for a war movie anyway) Im placing Hyena Road in top 5 of all iraq/afgan war movies. So if you like Zero Dark Thirty, Hurt Locker, Charlie Wilsons War and Green Zone im sure you'll love that one too. So thanks Canada, this is how you do a war movie, and this is how most of them should be done! PS, when i read all those previous reviews written by canadians, it got me even more emotional. So many many thanks for all the emotions :)
