Blonde (2022)
Truly Disappointing
The only thing worth watching about this is Ana De Armas portrayal of the iconic blonde bombshell, the resemblance was uncanny other than that it was terrible and disappointing. The horrible storyline, the constant jumping back and forth to black and white to color and the cinematography was weird. The acting was decent from most of the cast. The set design was done well. The fictionalized version of Marilyn Monroes life was truly odd given that there were lots to tell. Whoever says this was a biopic is truly mistaken
Disclaimer: This film could also be triggering for some who have had miscarriages or struggles of motherhood to an extant, as they make it a point of emphasis in alot of scenes.
Almost an Angel (1990)
Underrated film
Outside of the Crocodile Dundee films this is the only film I know of Paul Hogan and it's pretty good. Ex con has an epiphany and uses his criminal expertise for good or else he goes to hell. All in all its a good film that deserves a look.
Rambo (2008)
Best Rambo since First Blood
Personally for myself this was my favorite Rambo film. The acting was good, the visual effects amazing and great directing from Sylvester Stallone. A great way to end an action series and if you're a fan of the Rambo films you'll love this one.
Cry Wolf (2005)
A solid film with good plot twists...but
Personally I like the premise of the film. The story was good and production was nicely executed but for one aspect... THE ACTING!!! Despite having a few talented and known actors the acting in this film is just God awful. Adding Bon Jovi to the mix didn't help the film either. Even with the talents of Supernatural star Jared Padalecki and Pineapple Express' Gary Cole couldn't help what should of been a REALLY GOOD horror/thriller. If there was better acting I would of given a higher rating
The Intruder (2019)
Dennis Quaid
The film itself is a lackluster and full of cliches but its Quaid's performance that made the film worth watching. He truly made a good bad guy and knew the line between crazy and evil
31 (2016)
Rob Zombie's Version of Saw... I like it
Despite this not being an original idea, the execution was done well. Solid cast, lots of 70's horror gore, good music and great acting all around.
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)
Terrible Adaptation, Good Flick
This film is a terrible Adaptation to the book series by C.S Lewis but the film itself is decent. New Zealand is the go to location for films in the middle ages. If you read the book you will hate the film but if you didn't its a pretty good one
A Futile and Stupid Gesture (2018)
Cliché but solid acting all around
National Lampoon has a special place in my heart as its responsible for most of my sense of humor and to see a biopic about the legendary Doug Kenney got me intrigued and excited. Will forte did a superb job as Kenney but the story was lackluster. Although creative and something I believe Kenney would do its bland plot lines and lack of climax made it drag a bit, but the acting of all supporting cast that included Joel McHale as Chevy Chase and Domhall Gleeson as Henry Beard did fantastic jobs
Dumplin' (2018)
good premise, but poor execution
The film isn't bad by any means but its not good either, premise and storyline are great and has good messaging and intent but it lacks assurance and needs better jokes and punch lines
Beverly Hills Ninja (1997)
For Chris Farley Fans and physical comedy
If Chris Farley wasn't in this film it would be unwatchable. The film itself is stupid but the premise is decent. Plus the edition of Robin Shou and Soon Tek-Oh were good too. Give the film a chance if you need a good laugh
The Hateful Eight (2015)
Not Tarantino's best but still good
I personally love westerns and Django Unchained is arguably his best work. The premise of this one sounds cool but kinda jumps around a little too much for my taste but still a good film nonetheless
Broken Arrow (1996)
One of Travolta's best performances
The film itself was cheezy but Travolta's acting was superb. Travolta delivers a great performance as a psychotic military terrorist who steals a nuke and holds the U.S for ransom.
Bird Box (2018)
Suspenseful but not terrifying
Despite having a vague/dull storyline it has solid climax scenes and great talented cast that are able to make most of the scenes emotional and suspenseful. Not really any terrifying or scary parts nor are there any jump scares but good gripping plot points that keep you on the edge of your seat.
