Re: Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019)

It was OK. There were some truly funny and brilliant moments, but as usual with QT, I had trouble sinking into the story because QT always makes you painfully aware that you are watching a movie. He never allows the viewer to just lose themselves in the story because he wants you to remember he's ma...

Re: Docu-fucking-mentaries: The Thread

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8sUwXTWb4M Just saw this. Toni Morrison's The Pieces I am. It was pretty good. Toni Morrison has no humility though LOL. Which was kinda refreshing. The documentary explains why she probably shouldn't have any considering how her work was regarded when she first came ...

Re: Aladdin (2019)

I actually really enjoyed this. I was worried in the beginning because Will's singing was a bit shaky and I was just like "is this gonna work?" But then it really fell in place. I enjoyed the actress who played Jasmine the most. Her singing was on point and she was beautiful. Aladdin wasn't bad eith...

Re: Midsommar (2019)

It was a really strange movie. I came away from it mostly wondering what kind of demons Ari is wrestling with. This in many way is so close to Hereditary in terms of the themes with grief, sacrifice, and cult like behaviors. It just feels like he's working something out on screen. But it is a gorgeo...

Re: Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019)

It's really not, I'm also honesty surprised you'd be okay with how badly handled it is. It's almost insulting to the viewer considering how well Homecoming managed to pull off its concept. In keeping with the themes of the film, it has - ironically - the illusion of a good movie. Not sure what else...

Re: Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019)

I could not disagree more with every single thing Cilogy posted. This is a movie about inheriting responsibility you didn't ask for, and living up to the memory of those who you have lost. It's about discovering growing up is as much about what you should do verses what you would like to. These are...

Re: Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019)

So, I wanted to like this, especially cuz I thought Homecoming was so fresh and unassumingly entertaining. Actually thought this was quite poor. It totally undoes the good faith and personality set up for this character and this interpretation of the Spiderverse. So much of this film grabs you by t...

Re: Captain Marvel (2019)

Does anyone remember all of the hype and excitement for Dr. Strange before he was officially introduced. People said he was so powerful he was going to change the game. There was literally no backlash at all to how powerful he was and he hadn't even been introduced yet, they were just teasing that h...

Re: Ma (2019)

Just because you take a different role, doesn’t mean you’re going to be believable as that character. So far, she’s not threatening. Spencer also likes to roll around in the trashy playground of bad horror movies, so this won’t surprise me if it’s another dud. Eh, I think that's the point. It's sub...

Re: Ma (2019)

This looks awesome! I think it's funny how people call Octavia one note and then when she takes a role that is totally different and out there, they say she's not interesting or threatening looking. There are literally hundreds of cases of crazy women look just like her on Snapped every day.
