Escape Plan (2013)
7/10
I have to admit I enjoyed this one
1 November 2021
Nothing much more to say other than I enjoyed this movie. I have also watched it twice by this review and plan to watch it soon. I don't know why I found it that entertaining and I can see where the negativity stems from but for me it just works for my entertainment purposes. 7 out of 10 for what it delivered.

I'm not sure what movie people are watching
1 November 2021
One thing I hate on IMDB is people rating movies based on OTHER movies and how similar or not they are to them. That is not how you critic a film.

You should critic it as a sole movie and how much it entertained you and potentially book referencing but to me that's not important. Who cares if it has been done before or a same idea has been produced. If you don't like the idea don't watch it.

I personally loved this film. So much so that I have watched it 3 times now and I actually want to watch it again. It has everything you want form a dystopian nightmare action film. Unreal visuals, good audio mastering and the acting is great.

Also don't watch this on a mincy 24 inch tv with no audio system and expect the same experience. I have shown this to a few friends on my 100 inch screen with a banging sound system and they all completely changed their minds about it after the experience. Some movies are meant for the big screen and this is definitely one of them (along with Mad max) Don't watch that movie without a decent sub)

I gave it a 9 out of 10 for how the film entertained me and its value for me coming back. Don't listen to the doubters.

Black Mirror (2011– )
9/10
Rate the show as a whole please and Miley's episode was unreal imo
28 September 2021
Please disregard people who don't know how to search for individual episodes to rant on them and give the show a low rating.

This show is one of the best ever made but its important to understand that not every show is for everyone and some you will love and some you may not.

I also think there are a lot of people who simply are negative because Miley Cyrus is in the last season and don't give her face value similiar to if it were Justin Bieber as a main actor and quite frankly I thought she gave a top notch performance and I thought it was one of the best episodes and actually one of the most believable stories with a really cool concept. I would give that episode a 9 out of 10 if it were me but I would chose to find said episode and review it properly.

Either way this show is almost a 100% but not perfect like planet earth.

Another fantastic movie littered with 1 and 2 rated propaganda nonsense.
1 December 2019
Oh my good God. What planet are people living on.

First off. You don't rate a movie based on another movie. That is totally stupid. It doesn't matter if its copying the original, if its animated or anything of that account. A movie should only be rated on the movie itself.

I am a non biased movie watcher who gives honest reviews based on my entertainment value of films. I simply thought this film was brilliant.

A few things that help my experience. I have a mini cinema in my basement with a 100 inch screens and a fantastic 5.1 surround sound system. The only way this should truly be watched. The immersion value is so much better this way.

As for the movie I was glued from start to finish. I thought that acting was brilliant. I don't get what other people are seeing? I loved the music and the skits, the CGI was great and the beast was excellent. The love story pulled me and took me for the ride it was meant to.

All in all I gave this a 9. I cant wait tone it again. I enjoyed it that much.

Don't listen to all these negative reviewers. There probably being paid by Netflix to leave comments all day. Sometimes I really think this is what happens.

What planet are people living on? This was brilliant on all levels.
28 September 2019
I am an internet technician. I deal with wifi and internet everyday of life and this movie had me in stitches. The attention to detail was out of this world and the online humor was just pure class.

I rated this a 9 out of 10. Not many movies get that from me let me tell you that but for the pure entertainment that it brought to me and my family when we watched it I just simply had to give it.

P.S. I have never seen the first movie and quite personally I hate when people rate movies based on the original. That's not what IMDB should be about.

Dont listen to all the negativity. This is cinema at it's best. Theres something it for everyone.

The part that everyone seems to be hating on (all the disney characters scene) I thought was excellent. I have a 3 year old daughter that is obsessed with all these characters and I known them all well. It was refreshing to see such a different take on all of them. Some of the the hashtags were brilliant.

People are lost in this world I think. Theres no way anyone could rate this lower than a 5. If so you dont deserve to be reviewing movies.

Hope you enjoy.

Great acting, nice cinematography, plot line was slow and left me shaking my head amd of course the ending was nuts.
31 July 2019
Acting was a 10 Comedy factor was a 7 Cinematography was a 9 Plotline was a 4

I gave this an honest 6 out of 10.

The plot line for me was rather boring and just felt like I was watching different people's lifes without any real character development. The acting was amazing though and there was some scenes that had me laughing.

The classic ending was of course wild but a little over the top and felt out of place in the film but still entertaining.

The cinematography was great for a retro movie.

I am glad I seen it but I wouldn't watch it again.

Altered Carbon (2018–2020)
9/10
Some people on her are clueless
6 March 2019
Some people on here have lost the plot. People resting this 1 star and then commenting I never made it past the 1st episode because it wasn't making sense. Honestly.

This is the bestbtv show I have seen on Netflix period. It has it all. Futuristic feel, sex, violence, great acting and much more.

Dont even waste any more time. Start watching and at least give it a couple of episodes to get going.

The Edge (1997)
5/10
The good is good and the bad is terrible.
13 January 2019
How on earth are people rating this a 10? What are they watching because it certainly wasn't what I'm seeing.

The plot build in the first half hour is atrocious. The character dialogue is pretty bad and some of the acting is horrible. Like I literally burst out laughing bad.

People said they were on the edge of their seat. So was I as I decided whether or not I was going to turn the movie off.

I was too far invested though and stuck with it.

The second half however picked up and it got a lot better. The fact that they use a real bear in the movie is a massive plus for me. I liked the story, the ending and the way it panned out.

Some of the stuff that happens in the wild though would leave Bear Grills in a fit of laughter. I won't go into too much detail.

I gave the first half a 4 and the second half a 6 giving it an honest 5 star.

It didnt leave me feeling satisfied but I'm glad I watched it.

I did however have more fun reading through peoples 9 and 10 star reviews. Good God.

What on earth are people thinking? This is one of the best movies ever made.
13 January 2019
DO NOT LISTEN TO ANYONE RATING THIS 1-4 STARS.

These people are living on Mars.

I am not even a mad max fan and this film blows me away.

THIS MOVIE IS DESIGNED TO BE WATCHED ON A MASSIVE SCREEN WITH A GOOD QUALITY SOUND SYSTEM. ESPECIALLY THE BASE.

It may give you a completely different perspective on this film.

The thing that makes it all that much better is there is almost no CGI in this movie. They did all there stunts live with real vehicles and explosions. You can watch a video about it.

Get watching this movie right now and don't even waste your time reading the negative views because they are all drivel.

An honest review. Dont even bother reading any of the 1 star reviews
20 November 2018
Is this movie spectacular? No Is it a blockbuster special? No Was I entertained? Yes

Let's get things straight. No way in hellnis this movie a 10 but it is the last thing from a 1 star either. The acting I thought was decent for the most part. Some of the cgi was pretty bad, The plot was simple but executed well. I think people read into movies too much these days. If you want a well written poetic 10 star special then dont watch this. If you want an ass kicking prison break movie that you can just turn your brain off for 1 couple of hours then this is the show for you.

I was entertained all the way through. It does not deserve the low ratings. Trust me I've watched some horrific films in my time but this doesn't even come close. Watch and choose for yourself.

Prison Break: Ogygia (2017)
Season 5, Episode 1
5/10
Wasn't engaging at all.
11 November 2018
Wow that was a terrible start to prison break season 5.

No character development at all. I thought the first episode even the first 2 episodes could have been catching up on the 7 years that have gone by. It all just seems rushed. The dialogue is terrible. Acting isn't too bad but there is know flow to anything.

Plot holes all over the place. I'm struggling to keep up at times.

Terrible start to a much loved show. Hope it gets better.

Black Panther (2018)
8/10
An Honest review. I don't understand how this movie could be rated 1-3 stars. SERIOUSLY???
28 September 2018
First off I will start by saying I am about the most honest reviewer on the planet. I like to say it like it is.

Second off I will say that I have an HD projector with a 100 inch screen in my basement with a full surround sound. This can make a huge difference when watching a movie. Especially with action movies.

I thought this movie was brilliant. Here is why. It is completely different to anything I have seen of late.

The cast for a start. A mainly all black African American cast in a big screen movie. It just brought a whole new dynamic to the film.

The cinematography was unreal in this movie. I kept commenting all the way through it. I loved the whole African setting for a superhero movie. Again something different.

The music. An entire album was written for this movie and it's a very good album. How often does that happen?

I felt the acting was pretty decent. The storyline I didn't mind. I judge a movie based on the movie. Not on how the storyline was like the lion king or some other movie. What has that got to do with anything?

People of imdb what in the hell dictates a 5 star movie never mind an 8 or a 9 if this movie only gets a 1 star. 1 star. 1 star?????????? Are you serious? I am literally laughing at the thought of what people think a bad movie is. I've seen horrendous movies and I mean terrible movies but i still gave them a 3 for what they did right.

I gave this movie an 8 star and that is a true retrospective of the entertainment value that this movie provided me with on my given night to watch it.

Don't be put off by terrible biased reviews. Judge for yourself.

Are we even watching the same movie?
19 September 2018
People listen up. How on earth can anyone rate this less than a 7.

What a great movie. Very well written and Ben Affleck blew me away with his acting. Not only that but the cinematography was great and the actions scenes were some of the most believable I have seen. The way he puts bullets into people to make sure they are dead is just spot on. Very routine and portrays his autistic traits to a t.

I gave this a 9.

Must watch.

It's not as bad as people are making it out to be.
30 April 2018
Warning: Spoilers
While this movie is certainly not a 10 it is definitely not a 1.

I did find the storyline a little bit silly in some parts especially the main plot but hey I give every movie face value. I did enjoy some of the action scenes. I do agree with some users that the intent to use weapons by the enemy was terrible. Clear shots for days and not pulling the trigger. Acting was pretty decent for the most part. Plenty of action but the plotholes were noticeable. The love story could have been portrayed better and the kiss was terrible. For that to be the last kiss they will ever have I would be giving it everything. Not a closed mouth peck and a bear hug.

I definitely think that the maze runner was a great movie but I have to agree I'm not sure why we are still calling it that now. The last 2 movies were not bad as part of the series. I still had some laughs and some intense moments but I am watching it at home with a projector and surround sound with the subwoofer pumped up high. Definitely impacts movie pleasure.

Anyways if your a fan of the series I would watch it. I'm sure you will enjoy it. I really can't see how this movie could be rated 1 star. Come on people. I could name a 1000 worse movies.
