I got a series of movies here. Lucky This was a solid premise for a movie and I really think it was close to being an important movie. But I think this movie struggles in trying to define its meaning and establishing its reality. I think it wants to say a lot about feminism and the female...

Unhinged 2/10 This review is in spoilers because I couldn't share my thoughts on it without actively discussing the plot.

Final Girls I'm a big fan of horror and slashers especially, so I've heard about Final Girls for a while now as a parody to the genre. I finally got around to watching the movie and found myself enjoying it for its plot far more than an actual satire of slasher films. While there are several...

The Art of Self Defense I liked the style and the comedy of this movie, and the first half does a good job highlighting hypermasculinity and how some men have unhealthy and unnecessary rules for being masculine. It loses me in the third act where I think it struggles focusing on a showdown...

Knives Out 7/10 I went into this hoping we'd get a classic "whodunnit" mystery based on the trailers, but this isn't really what we got. But it still was at the same time? I enjoyed the concepts of the whodunnit and the cat&mouse plotline kind of happening in the movie, but I thought the...

Truth or Dare For one of these horror films about evil games or a monster with specific rules, this wasn't a horrible movie. Definitely better than other movies in a similar genre. I thought that, for once, the characters didn't just exist to be killed. Most were fleshed out to be given some...

Detective Pikachu 7.5/10 The movie was cute and all of the pokemon looked incredible. It is truly a feat that they managed to bring all of these cartoony creatures to life in a way that rarely looks odd (my favorite thing to do was look at extras and how they clearly never knew where a pokemon...

The Meg 3/10 There is nothing interesting to see here. The point about the shark being a megalodon never matters, it might as well just be a regular shark movie. If you've seen Jaws, you've seen this movie. Worst of all, the characters and their relationships don't matter. The protagonist has a...

Mamma Mia 4/10 Honestly, just listen to an ABBA soundtrack. That's practically the whole movie. The three dad's plot never really matters, characters do not interact. It's just ABBA song after ABBA song, and very few actually make sense within the movie.

Ready Player One It was okay, I guess. The big evil company was unbelievably dumb. The villains main goal for getting control of the virtual world was to fill it with ads, which I get would be annoying and probably ruin the fun of playing, but its not like its that evil. The movie acts like...

Incredibles 2 This movie did not disappoint. Despite my concerns that Jack Jack's use of powers would be obnoxious, I actually found the scenes focused on him to be pretty cute and funny. He was certainly given a lot more personality that I really enjoyed. Incredibles 2's strongest point has...

X-Men 6/10 The OG X-men movie. It is okay. It's not a terrible movie, but it's very clearly an early 2000s superhero movie. The special effects and costuming isn't great, and there is absolutely no depth to any of the characters. They have the semblance of depth, but nothing goes too deep...

Lights Out 7/10 A decent horror film. I really liked the original short, which did cause uneasiness and fear, unlike most horror movies honestly. The full length movie had its moments, but once the creatures story is explained, it becomes very meh. The acting is...existent, I guess? I wasn't...

Turbo Kid---- 7/10 The best word to describe this movie is aesthetic. Turbo Kid is a tribute to sci-fi movies of the 80's and definitely captures the look it was going for, especially the technology and monitors shown in the movie. The costuming is fantastic (except for the actual Turbo Kid...

The Boy- 6/10 This was an interesting movie. I enjoyed it, but there wasn't anything frightening about it. Most of the scares are cheap jump scares (that they too heavily advertised) which occur during dream sequences. Majority of the time, it was all just build up before the climax. The twist...

Fantastic Four 1/10 (WARNING MILD SPOILERS) Wow...this is a legitimately bad movie. I assumed the reviews were exaggerating. But wow. For starters, the movie about the Fantastic Four, a team of four people, can barely get them all together. In fact, Sue Storm and Ben Grimm never have a...

Deadpool 6/10 The humor was definitely there and I loved it. But the story left so much to be desired. I wasn't a fan of how his origin was told and I never felt like Deadpool could lose. Also, this movie's budget was dramatically cut so a lot of the action scenes had to be cut and toned down...

The Maze Runner/ Scorch Trials I am incredibly disappointed in these film. While the books are not that great, they're certainly better than their adaptations to the big screen. My biggest gripe with the first movie is how poorly the world was built. Instead of creating a believable scenario...

Interstellar Terrible movie. The effects were, for the most part, done well. But the plot couldn't decide what it wanted to be. There were some segments that I thought would make incredibly good movies if they stuck with them, but the interesting plots are gone as quickly as they appear. Along...

Nightcrawler The movie lacked an overarching plot, and there really weren't consequences for the main character's actions. Other than that though, the acting was pretty well done and it was pretty entertaining. 7/10

Now You See Me Eh, it was okay. The visuals were pretty cool, but the use of the "magic" was very annoying. Many tricks were physically impossible with no good explanation. And worst of all was the big twist ending which made absolutely zero sense and was never once hinted at in any part of the...

As Above So Below I really wanted to like this movie. I thought it looked very interesting in the trailers (I enjoy psychological thrillers). But, I can't say I liked it at all. The use of the first person camera is done very poorly, to the point that you just have to wonder what is going on...

The Purge Anarchy The movie was surprisingly good. It knew what to go for; not jump scares but disturbing and making the viewer feel on edge the entire time. My only complaint is how many things they tried to explain in this movie and delve into far exceeded what the screen time allowed. There...

Carrie(2013) It was good, but nothing can beat the original. The casting was very strong, and it stayed true to the original unlike the first remake. 7/10

Transformers: Age of Extinction Dino transformers!?!? Awesome right!?!? Yeah, no. The plot was overly complicated to the point I was straight up confused. Not to mention the ridiculous amount of product placement involved (please tell me why Mark Wahlberg had to obviously pop open a Coors Light...

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 It was a pretty strong movie, except it went for the two villains working together that Spider Man 3 tried and failed. It wasn't executed very well here either. One villain didn't even get much screen time in the end, and I was rather disappointed. 7/10.

The Fault in Our Stars 4/10. I hated the book so naturally I wasn't a fan of the movie. And Nat Wolfe is a terrible actor, so his performance as Isaac really just ruined it all for me.

Divergent I absolutely disliked this movie. I went into it with low expectations, but after watching the beginning scenes, I thought it could actually be good. But then I realized I was at the end of the movie and...just wow... For starters, the movie was extremely uneventful. There were...

They Came Together A hilarious spoof of romantic comedies. It is smart, clever, and absolutely ridiculous. Every minute was spent laughing like an idiot. I would recommend it to anyone. I give this movie a 10/10

The Sea of Monsters Meh....can't conisder myself a fan. The script was poorly handled, and it felt they were throwing everything in our face. It was rather uneventful and perhaps only a third of the movie was spent in the sea of monsters. If it is going to be the title, spend a bit more time...

Watched "The Way, Way Back" with my family the other day. It was pretty good, a nice coming of age story. The movie didn't have a full conclusion, but that what was one of the best parts of it. Steve Carrel played a jerk, and it was nice differene from his usual goofy role. I give it a 7/10

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty Ben Stiller played the role of his life, IMO. He successfully plays an awkward character who a lot of people can really relate to. The humor is non stop and it transitions very nicely. The best part is the movie has an amazing soundtrack that screams adventure...

Silent Hill: Revelations 1/10 This movie was not good at all in my opinion. It was too obviously based off of a video game. The plot wasn't deep and it just threw you into it, the love interest giving the girl the biggest secret he has been taught to keep hidden after a single day. He turned...

Seed of Chucky I was lazy and watched all the Child's Play movies (except for 3). I give this movie a 2/10. The franchise was definitely going down hill after Child's Play 3, and this one did not save it. The ending is obscure and confusing and Glen/Glenda...jesus christ! There were a total of...

Pacific Rim 4/10. The characters were cliche with absolutely no development and the main character was too perfect. I mean it is not physically possible for him to make a mistake! This and the lack of reason in the entire world was just ridiculous and every fives seconds we saw the blur of a...

Safety Not Guaranteed A cute funny movie. Left me smiling in the end. Only about an hour and a half, so its a quick movie. Currently available on Netflix, for those of you who have an account. 10/10

Struck by Lightinging written by Chris Colfer. This movie didn't really ever make it public. I had never heard of it until see it on pay-per-view. However, it surprised me in many ways. Chris Colfer ((Kurt from the show Glee)) did an amazing job of writing and acting in this film. And the...
