Nope (2022)
My anxiety was not ready
Don't understand the negative reviews. Original story, great cast and delivery, sound effects and visual effects were engaging.
If anything, it starts off slow, but worth the wait.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)
Had me in the first half, not gonna lie
The cast, music, choreography and comedic relief started very strong. And then it rushed...
It feels as though the movie is split in two, taking a very different direction halfway, and it didn't do it justice.
Rurôni Kenshin: Sai shûshô - The Final (2021)
It became what the first films were not: a caricature
The first 3 films stood out among live action films for their down to earth perspective, beautiful choreography, charismatic actors and memorable music. This 4th installment fell flat overall.
From treating their characters with respect, it became a cariature of itself, many becoming useless bystanders and taking actions out of character.
Only 1 battle choreography was up to par with previous films, with characters using their environment and prolonged shots.
Establishing the setting dragged far too long.
Its a real shame. This series of movies had created a new standard of live action films, and it didn't deliver what originally set it apart.
You'll want to watch the OVAs right after.
