La La Land (2016)
I don't get it
Look I'm sorry I really am, I just don't get it. I've seen snippets of reviews praising the movie and carrying on and on and on about the opening scene. It's won awards and Emma Stone is smoking hot as usual but honestly I don't understand it. My wife and I sat down to watch it and lasted 30 minutes - just....... no idea what was going on, didn't like any of the songs, all of that.
This movie obviously isn't for us, but I'm glad there are people it is for.
Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (2013)
Absolutely terrible
I gave this movie one star, because that's how many times I laughed. If you're thinking of paying money for this, don't. Use the money to buy razors and cut yourself, it'll be far more satisfying. If you're thinking of illegally downloading this, don't. Use your bandwidth to watch one of those webcam feeds of grass growing.
It'll be much more satisfying.
If you're thinking of not watching this, do. You'll have saved yourself valuable minutes of your life that you'd never get back.
I have to write more lines of text but I simply have no more to say about this horrific movie. Just stop reading reviews and go watch something else.
The Bay (2012)
Garbage
This movie was terrible. It wasn't frightening whatsoever and the environmental message it's trying to put across is poorly implemented and clumsily presented.
They also appeared to do no research whatsoever into infectious diseases and protocols, and have a poor grasp of science. My favourite quote has got to be "maybe it's some kind of viral bacteria!" It moves too slowly, doesn't take full advantage of the medium/film technique and the intro is badly scripted and completely generic.
The "monsters" are kind of gross and interesting I suppose but all in all, watch something else.
Riddick (2013)
I just don't understand why people like the things that they like.
It's as if they remade Pitch Black, except with a more boring location, less suspense, worse acting and less interesting aliens.
The aliens live in mud, and for some reason can't go rampaging around until it rains. All well and good, except the movie never establishes why they can't just run around everywhere, a la Pitch Black monsters being burnt by the light. The weird Egyptian looking dog he hangs around with is a lost opportunity to imagine man's best extraterrestrial friend and is, to me, pretty jarring.
I would only recommend watching if you REALLY need to know what Vin does after the disaster that was Chronicles.
