The Unforgivable (2021)
Emotional rollercoaster.
Didn't expect much but I must say I was pleasantly surprised. It's been a while since I've seen a movie that's this much emotionally captivating. Really good writing and casting. An amazing performance from Sandra Bullock! Definitely recommend.
The Book of Boba Fett: Chapter 5: Return of the Mandalorian (2022)
I could not stop from wowing!
This episode was defenetly a welcome brake from the main plot. I don't know yet if this means the rest of the series will improve but it surely didn't hurt. But as far as an episode goes, just wow!
Eternals (2021)
Who the hell writes these reviews!? (NO SPOILERS)
So, first of all, don't listen to the critics.
I went into this with very low expectations because of all the negative reviews. After watching it for the first time I am starting to think all those people are completely tasteless.
Addressing some of the critics I have red:
1. Characters aren't relatable... Oh really, so you can relate to a 12 foot green "Bigfoot" and a super smart billionaire with his own power armor but this is too much?? It's a superhero movie for crying out loud!
2. Not funny... I am sorry you were born without humor. It's one of the funnier Marvel's I've seen.
3. It's overreaching... Yes it's called expanding the franchise. We have had our typical superheroes and tones of content like it. After "End Game" it makes perfect sense they are heading in this direction. Exploring more of the universe and looking at the MCU on a broader scale.
4. Tooo long... Nope, it's perfect. They take the time to cover the relationships between the different Eternals over a time span of thousands of years. To make sure we get the full picture and get to know them. So nope, not to long. It's a MOVIE.
5. VFX look poor... Yeah, those are just some spoiled people. Not even worth mentioning.
6. It raises more questions than it awnsers... Again, this is because we are expanding the franchise. It's part of the fun you know. And if you watched till the end you'd know the "Eternals" are returning.
7. I could go on but I think you get my point.
All in all pretty solid movie. Loved the actors and music as well. Only reason I gave it a 9 and not a 10 is because they keep their suits on for to long, at the beginning of the movie. Makes them feel out of place sometimes. But again they are Eternal so what do I know.
Can't wait to see how this will fit in with the "Guardians of the galaxy" if they decided to move in that direction. And to all my sweet reviewers out there, remember it's only my personal opinion. Nothing personal.
Much love.
The Book of Boba Fett: Chapter 2: The Tribes of Tatooine (2022)
Tribes!
In this episode we get more of Boba Fett's time spent with the Tusken raiders on Tattooine and boy did I love it. We finally get to see why Tusken tribes are so well known and how they "made" Boba Fett into the warrior he became to be. It's a really beautiful episode and a warm welcome after the rather short Chapter 1 from last week. I can't wait for what's to come.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)
Waaaaw!
An amazing movie (Original, great cast, nice soundtrack, CGI is just pure eye candy, good comical releaf as usual) and great addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe!!! Can't wait for what's to come!
Dune (2021)
Made my top 5 favorite movies of all time.
This was by far one of the best movies I have seen in my entire life and it does justice to the novel.
Screenplay, soundtrack, vfx... Everything was incredibly well put together. I have absolutely nothing bad to say and can't wait to see part two.
If you love sci-fi or just, good movies, look no further.
The Midnight Sky (2020)
A well made movie.
This is a drama first, set in a sci-fi scene. Not an action sci-fi!! That's what a lot of people screaming "BAD MOVIE" or "BORING" fail to keep in mind.
So keeping that in mind. This was a good movie. So if you're looking for something different this is definitely worth a watch.
The Midnight Sky keeps you hooked by raising a lot of questions. It reveals little of what is actually happening and let's you wonder.
The cast's performance therefore feels more natural and doesn't force any unnecessary "gibberish".
I have absolutely nothing negative to say about the actors. All of them sold it very well. Sometimes managing to create a distinctive personage in just a few scenes.
The only downside is the action. Mostly the one that happens on the ground. The one that happens in space is actually pretty ok.
And it's a winner for the vfx department!
To recap. A well made drama. An intriguing scenario. Good actors. Sometimes lacking in the action scenes. And some tasty eye candy for a sci-fi passionate.
Definitely a good movie night.
The Mandalorian (2019)
This is the way!
This is the Star Wars universe like you have never experienced it before.
Way better than the last trilogy. The directing is fabulous. It is truly a masterpiece and having just seen the season 2 finale, WAAUW!
If you haven't seen this yet because you were turned off by the movies you are missing out on one of the best series out there.
