The Twilight Zone: Among the Untrodden (2020)
Best Episode So Far
This is the 3rd episode this season that has really surprised me! From the very beginning, this episode had me intrigued then grew to be my favorite episode thus far. Comparing to the previous episode, this was a breath of fresh air with the writing, the twist, and the original story.
The Twilight Zone: Meet in the Middle (2020)
Slow Start
About 15 minutes into this, I stopped paying attention for a bit since the story was just at a crawl. Once it picked back up, it really finished strong and gave me hope for this season since the last only had a couple strong episodes. Was at 4 stars but revised at a 7.
Gretel & Hansel (2020)
So Much Potential
With great actors, beautiful cinematography, and music that was 7 times out of 10 seamless, what the heck was that plot?
I tried so hard to like this movie and be engrossed in it but there's was absolutely nothing pulling me in. At the ending, I just felt like laughing because it seemed like a big joke with such great everything except the story.
See it if you want but don't have any expectations for watching a movie that is anything worth your time
Doctor Sleep (2019)
Surprising Really Great!
SPOILERS AT BOTTOM:
I say surprisingly because I had a decently high hope with Ewan as lead but the idea of, what the trailer made it seem like, someone sucking out souls had me worried BUT it worked pretty dang well!
The visuals of everything looked great and 95% of acting was flawless. I'm happy they made their idea work in such a fun and interesting way.
SPOILERS BELOW:
I loved that they finally made an out of body outer space floating scene work without it being cheesy and easy to see it was green screen. Going back to the hotel and showing such cared for details really brought this all together.
My few complaints was that we didn't a cameo from Jack Nicholson at least at the very end or somewhere even if it was for a couple seconds. My other complaint was how they did the scenes of breathing in the steam of the people - it just kinda felt unreal and almost cheesy.
I'd see it again. 8.3/10
Countdown (2019)
Better Than I Thought
Honestly came to this with pretty low expectations and because I was bored. After the first bit, I was actually starting to like it because a couple bad jump scared.
The biggest problem I had was how it ended. I think that if they killed both of the girls off by tricking them or left the older one dead it wouldn't have ended with that cheesy ending.
If you're bored, give it a try!
Gemini Man (2019)
Save your money
I don't usually write reviews but this had to be done. Literally everything was bad from the CGI to the acting and lines. The only good that I found in this was the sound editing/mixing that was honestly great. Besides that, I laughed myself to tears at the end when I was expecting everyone to take off masks and reveal that they too were Will Smith - if that happened I'd give it an easy 9/10. Don't go see this trash.
