Reacher (2022)
Did you like the book? If yes don't hesitate ;)
If you enjoy lee child books and reacher as a character than look no further... one of the best books turned into a series I've seen in a long time... shout out to LOTR....
What more can I say, they kept the story true to the book, they didn't change the character or story to talk about « the message ».
The roles of all the characters are believable the casting is really quite good.... I could never really accept Tom cruise as jack reacher tbh... this reacher is exactly like the book and he gives a great performance...
What can I say more....
Did you like the book? Then you can watch this with the certainty that they respected the original material, and made the book come to life!
The fact that it's a series means they can really go in depth into the story and they stay very close to the origins and canon....
Watch it... after the first episode you will either love it or hate it... (don't know how you could though)
A great adaptation, and I hope Hollywood is watching and taking notes... we need more of this, not all this Hollywood spinning and catering to people who aren't even fans of the original story!!
So voila... my two cents.... A great watch...
But it's violent, and it isn't ashamed of showing it... but it's what you would come to expect when you know the book and the character!
Kudos to the script writers and director as well as producers... you have given me a little bit of faith in your industry! I Hope you all make loads of well deserved cash!
Enjoys folks and don't hesitate if your a fan of the books... really.... I just wonder if I will be able to read the books again without picturing this version of reacher lol!
Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
Loved it then... not
As a 12y old I watched this movie and loved it, the music the style and the characters.... Watched it later in my 20's and thought... Ferris is a bit of a knob, and not a great friend... and saw it again not long ago and actually hated Ferris in it, obnoxious, mean and selfish... with a silver spoon to boot...
It's a movie that ages very badly compared to 100's that have stood the test of time...
Maybe says more about me than the movie, but ... dunno... my 2 cents I guess.
Last time I watched this movie, I realised why I've always loved Ferris's friend so much and have always sympathised with this actor in movies and series... simply because he had to suffer in this movie so much... also he is a good actor...
The Road (2009)
What can I say.....
I watched this movie years ago..... not really into these type of movies and still don't think I am, but!! What an absolute gem.
I don't think any movie since then has ever hit me so hard, hard to watch and difficult to bare.... I have only watched this movie once and have never had the heart to go back to it... it took me about 3-4 days to get over watching it (at the time) and sort out the multiple feeling that it forced on me... great acting, a feel of desperation, an emotional gut renching movie and a must watch!! That is all
We, the Marines (2017)
Why the low score.... maybe because...
I'm a fan of the military and enjoy a good movie be it fictional or not... historical documentaries and anything related to battles, wars or people fascinate me!
Saying all that I found this documentary short hard to watch.... nothing wrong with the filming or amazing images!!! Gene doing his thing is just right for this... but!
It really feels like a recruitment movie... and it really glosses over the hardship horrors and realities of what these boys and girls will put themselves through!!
And With à script that just didn't sit right and felt propaganda/ish I found it hard to watch after 15min... that's just my two cents though!
God bless all the service men and women the world over!
Peace x
