A feast for the eyes .... But that's all folks
6 April 2023
Start with the obvious. It looks amazing, and I mean amazing. It is incredible to behold. I never thought the first avatar could look better but it is and I can't overstate that enough. The bad news is that the plot is so thin it is basically the same movie as the first . Evil humans come to pillage , destroy everything and destroy the natives etc etc with everything being an allegory . The natives represent every ingenious people the white man has ruined, the alien home world the beautiful earth we destroyed . The acting and the dialogue is terrible too . It's just a pity that the in creating such a technical masterpiece, James Cameron spent more than 10 minutes writing a script. Lord knows he had 14 years to do it.

Elvis (2022)
9/10
Genius
1 July 2022
I loved this movie from start to finish. The acting is superb. Austin Butler is the living embodiment of the king and his stardom is assured. Tom hanks is great as the scheming Tom Parker but the accent was a bit off putting. Baz lurman s Oscar is in the bag . His vision is superb. It looks beautiful, the colours and cinematography are breathtaking. The first half moves super fast and I was worried it would fly fast everything but then it slows down . It is long but and skips over certain things but if it was 6 hours long it wouldn't do Elvis justice . I love Radiohead, talking heads , the strokes and the white stripes but if u love music you have to see this . Utterly brilliant movie.

Love & Mercy (2014)
8/10
A quiet, thoughtful portrait of a genius
17 June 2022
I loved this movie . The beach boys music was the sound of my childhood and of course Brian Wilson was the driving force. Paul dano s performance is just spellbinding as young Brian starting to unravel from mental illness and John cusack as an older Brian ravaged by I'll health and under the spell of the evil Paul giamatti who is also amazing. A great film.

Utter failure
2 June 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This is truly shocking. Just finished episode 3 and it's actually getting worse. Obi wan is so pathetic and weak . What was the point of watching over Luke , how would he ever train him to be a Jedi when his own powers were almost gone . Vader toyed with him in this episode. The dialogue is embarrassing with very little plot.

Landscapers (2021)

Shocking waste of talent
8 December 2021
This could have been a great drama with the incredible talent of it's too leading actors. Instead it's some attempt at comedy. It's not funny at all . The police look incredibly stupid and just not realistic It's like they tried to copy the Fargo tv series and failed miserably . Dreadful.

Pitch Perfect (2012)
3/10
Just awful
13 November 2021
A dreadful movie that I genuinely thought I enjoyed my colonoscopy more . It's utter cringe and Anna Kendrick is in it so it must be garbage. The dialogue is just embarrassing with a plot as thin as a sheet of paper.

Great kids movie , that's all that matters
31 October 2021
My 4 year old loves paw patrol tv show but when we brought him to see this he was shaking from excitement. He was amazed from start to finish. Who cares about plot it's for kids . The animation is super slick compared to the tv series it looks amazing.

Cringe tv
9 September 2021
My wife made me watch this and frankly it's embarrassing to watch . It s so cheesy and badly written it's hard to believe it's not a SNL skit . If it were possible to give it 0 I would.

Great for kids ( obviously)

My 4 year old adores this and it throws in a little adult humour to give mums and dads a giggle . Great show for dinosaur mad kids.
