Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)
Great Action Movie But...
Loved Tom Cruz, love the comedy in it, the supporting characters and loved the action! Lots of good action scenes, keeps you excited to continue watching.
The storyline is good enough, even scary because we live in such a high tech world and everything one says and looks at is being taken note of.
That said the return villain is not very exciting but what was a let down was the annoying new protagonist, Grace, that made much of the movie annoying, not a the actress's fault just the role she plays is super frustrating. Couldn't wait to skip her parts, if only they had her less dumb in her decisions , the movie would have hit the mark a bit more.
Still worth the watch.
The Mandalorian (2019)
Nostalgic Star Wars
This feels like the Star Wars I wish had continued from the vintage Star Wars trilogy in every movie since.
Great feels, good characters, great throw backs.
The reason I gave it an 8 is I'm enjoying the short episodes and the nostalgic Star Wars atmosphere with a good main character and adorable baby Yoda.
The reasons I hold back a 9 or 10 is that there isnt actually a main quest to the main character, they are just mini quests he faces, I am starting to think that's what this series is, it's more of a day in the life of a bounty hunter in the Star Wars universe.
I'm hoping for more depth in plot.
Rise (2018)
Disappointed
I was excited about the show but after watching the first episode, it felt like a copy of glee and high school musical but lacked personality, the acting was not very good. This is my personal opinion of course but it fell flat.
Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials (2015)
Disappointed Because The Books Were Really Good
The first movie i loved, it did the book justice. Although the book was a lot better, the movie was good. This sequel totally went off to another place. Its a completely different movie and story from the books. Disconnected from the first movie. I am sad that this was done, if they wanted to adapt the book at least stick to the storyline even if they ended up taking out things and changing a bit here and there but to change it completely. I don't normally write reviews but this was a disappointment. I will not watch the third one if it comes out, i will wait for it on DVD just out of curiosity but would not pay to go see it at the theatre.
I Am Number Four (2011)
Book is ten times better!
The book is really good, the movie does not stay true to the book. In the book you get great character development, great insight into the main character's purpose and past, great relationship developments. There is a huge lack of this in the movie not to mention they mix everything up.
Example of a spoiler that occurs in the book and not in the movie: the big battle at the end includes Henri in the book - he has a lot of action scenes. In the book the relationship between Henri and John is really good , in the movie it lacks the sense of humor they share. The movie lacks the real insight to the relationships and any real insight into who they are and a lot of the training. It had potential to be a great movie.
Corazón salvaje (2009)
Terrible Adaption
Awful acting, awful story, awful costumes. Nothing to do with the beautifully made Corazon Salvaje with Eduardo Palomo. What was production thinking. Big waste of time and regretful. I do understand that they combined both of the following stories: Corazon Salvaje and some other story titled Yo Compro Esa Mujer. What a ridiculous idea. I am very disappointed.I personally never heard of Yo Compro Esa Mujer but i'm sure on its own its a great story but Corazon Salvaje was in itself such a great story. And the casting, omg what a terrible job casting the actors. All the main characters are terrible , they are over-acting and do not fit the roles.
