What Jennifer Did (2024)
As dumb as they come!
Where or where do I start. I was aware of this case but never knew much about the details. Well, the first thing that popped out at me was how absolutely dumb this girl was. Watching her interviews made me cringe because her acting was so bad and all that grooming and fidgeting drove me insane. What's ironic is that the girl tried to play too innocent and every single time she opened her mouth, she would stick a giant foot in it. Wouldn't it be great if all murderers were this stupid? She basically just told the Investigators everything that led to her arrest. I don't feel sorry for her at all as people in this world suffer much larger struggles in their life than worrying about not dating a drug dealer under a nice roof with a/c and food to eat. She should rot in jail forever!
Sejak (2024)
What a fairly tale to right the wrongs of history
This drama was intriguing in the beginning and then I realized it was pure fantasy. If you are reading this then you already know the plot so I'll cut to the chase.
The King who was abused falls in love with a woman disguised as a man. Now to believe that she can even pass for man is laughable and to believe he will execute his only kin, not listen to his mother and ignore others who plotted to kill him over a baduk player disguised as a man is laughable at best. It's cheezy at best.
If you look at Korean history the opposite would of happened, the relatives and high court ministers would have been rewarded, those who plotted to assassinate him no matter the reason would have been executed and he definitely would NOT have adopted his abusive brothers, the former King to be his son and not sire his own offspring.
If you like fairly tales that don't imitate history at all outside of costumes and enjoy a fairy tale that has zero existence to reality and the real world of history then watch it but for those with common sense, I believe you will find this drama a joke.
There is no way in the world that a King who rose to the crown due to the political scheming of his Uncle but in the end executes him when he forgives everyone else, even those who tried to assassinate him over a woman who hold zero royal or noble status?? Sure, right.
History shows in Korea that treachery, political scheming, and murder to hold political power is all very true. Brothers murdered brothers, cousins, nephews, sister in laws and court officials to hold power and to believe this idiot KIng would murder the ones who helped to obtain power and disregard his own mothers advice for an heir for people who wanted him dead?
Believe what you may want, but the show is purely fairy tale and just outrageous; Might as well watch a cartoon.
Muscles & Mayhem: An Unauthorized Story of American Gladiators (2023)
Just wrong
The documentary really upset me and I felt so bad for the Gladiators. All the work and injuries they endured to make the show a success and Goldwyn and co just treated them like meat. I am glad most turned out fine but absolutely wrong how they were treated. I really respect how the four primary Gladiators stood up for themselves and fought for what was right. I still don't understand why they couldn't sue and fight the slave contract they signed. People fight and contest contracts all the time. A great story as I grew up watching this show but very upsetting and sad how things turned out and the Goldwyn family can go to meet Abbadon!
Beomjoidosi 3 (2023)
Like watching a Korean Marvel movie
I really enjoyed part 1 of the franchise and two took over the top and now true to form, the 3rd installment took it over the mountain. I fet like I was watching a super hero movie with the title character being invincible with super powers. Look, I get it. Hes the main guy and hes tough and strong but this was way too much. The movie needed to balance out the fact that yes hes a badass but it becomes boring since the audience knows he cant be beat. Good example is when he gets in the back of the head with a bat and beaten with a bat about 20 times. Theres no blood and rises up to woop everyone and move with a slight grimace. Id wait for it to stream again if I could.
Crazy Rich Asians (2018)
No dads needed
Dads are bad, evil, busy or just not important in this mess of a cinderlla wannabe.
Movie is a pretty cheesy mess. I would think the father would at minimum attend the sons wedding as he his the heir to the empire but guess he gives zero &$@$/ about his son and gettn married. Movie is a def a girl power movie and the attempt at comedy throws most logic out the window.
The culture part is accurate for most parts but movie was missing alot. I get it that it was a comedy but to leave the father out of it entirely and what happened to Rachels mother seems to really hate on dads in this movie.
I believe from a good movie stand point w true funny takes, a 4 was being generous.
Hogar (2020)
Change your locks!!
An overly exaggerated movie about a rich guy who loses his job and has to move out of his expensive house with his family.
He accidentally finds the spare keys to his old penthouse and guess what?? Yep he goes back to his old home and keys still work. It goes down hill from there and really most of it is not believable at all. The wife of the victim and he truly is a victim has to be the dumbest, most idiotic wife In the movie world!!
Old (2021)
Growing old but...
Why the hell did their hair not grow?? As one ages and grows, their hair would get longer but nobodys hair grew even an inch. Watchable but lots of misses and mistakes.
The Midnight Sky (2020)
Absolute garbage that puts you to sleep
Movie is simpley a movie that goes overboard into trying to be an artistic, and emotional film that tries to tug on the human heart. But in reality it was so damn boring that I realized that Clooney is doing his hardest to prove to people he is an artist. Movie is flawed in almost every way but mostly it is just boooooooring!!!! Clooney use to make movies for entertainment but now that he is rich and like so many other big headed actors, hes an artist now trying to figure out his meaning in life. These actors are idiots! Most are at first to do any acting gif but then become these enlightened fools that make utter garbage! Clooney should never direct or act again!
I am still upset that I waited for the movie to get better to find out it is the same pulse all the way through!
Basically: Earth is inhabitable, ship makes journey to Saturn and is on the way back but does not know the earth is screwed. Clooneys character rushes to a weather station to communicate to the space team the bad news and to turn around. Space crew decides to turn around and George kicks the bucket. Yep thats it!! 2hrs is full of bs and fat that has no story what so ever! I never write a review but the movie just sucked so bad I wanted to save some folks from wasting their time!
Uncle Tom (2020)
I feel like I just woke up
This film took my breath away. I am an avid reader and thought I knew about the past and how we got to the present but was I wrong.
This film spoke to me because I grew up poor with a mentally ill mother. I got in trouble all the time, no father figure for guidance, gotnin trouble and raomed the streets doing what I wanted too. But I turned it around by working hard and educating myself. I believe so many people will identify with this film like I have and hope as many people will watch it as possible. It will educate and also enlighten you!
Rim of the World (2019)
Rooting for the Aliens!
Acting horrible! No charisma with any if the characters. Poor writing! Did not like the kids at all; got on my nerves more than anything. Movie lands with a loud thud and is really tough to get through. Then there are all the cliches and racial stereotypes that just offend and are out of place. Pray that McG or nugget never directs another movie.
How It Ends (2018)
Absolutely a waste of time!!
This is a movie that starts out fine and seems to keep the audience engaged and then suddenly it ends when there is supposed to be an additional climactic act. One of the dumbest, poorly thought out endings I have ever seen in my entire life. I am assuming they just went way over budget and didnt care about anything but wrappn it up. Please please do not waste your time!
Ansisung (2018)
Makes you appreciate your life
First, let me say it made me appreciate my life because when I watch a historical piece like this when life was so hard and death was an open and every day occurrence, it opens you eyes and heart to how good we have it today. I want to say that the action and camera work were great; actors pull you in and there is also a bit of comedy. The movie really captures your full attention from the opening scene. Not only is this a historical piece with action, it is also filled with tragedy, love and betrayal and the heart of one man and leader against impossible odds. I for one watch movies to be entertained and this movie really entertained me and moved me. I also looked up this battle from a historical context and majority of it is true and accurate, from the mound, to the numbers, to siege time, and eventually Tang China withdrawing outside of some things added for extra spice. So all you Chinese reviewers need to calm down a bit. :-)
Arrival (2016)
PLEASE do not waste your time like I did
This movie was absolutely a waste of time!!! The movie is slow, boring and the ending was a failed attempt at trying to teach mankind a bit of itself.
I love all genres of movies from romantic, comedy, melodrama, black comedies, thrillers, action and horror. So I tell you that I have a very open mind when it comes to movies. I am unsure what the ratings are about here and Rotten Tomatoes but how people have fallen for this sleeper sleeper is a serious mystery.
The movie itself to deem itself art worthy by presenting a movie that attempts to awaken man's conscious by presenting how horrible decisions and heated actions can be prevented, if we only open our eyes.
OK that's my attempt to be mature about this. The truth is the movie is boring and there is no serious plot twist or climax. Its a failed attempt at even a movie because you have gigantic squids that arrive on earth and we humans spend the entire time of the movie trying to understand their message to us. The bottom line basically is the linguist tries to decipher the language and alphabet of the squids, you eventually find out that you can see into the future as you learn and decipher their language and alphabet. And this is the gift that they brought to earth and outta nowhere, swoosh, they disappear. Yes that is it! Hello aliens or giant squids... why are you here? Oh I think I deciphered some of their messages! Now I can see into the future and this was a gift they wanted to present to us before disappearing again and being able to decipher it prevented an attack on the giant squids. Why or what or any logical common sense is thrown out the window to pull the raw emotions of the audience so they can want to believe.
This is the first ever review I have completed because I disliked this movie so much that I felt I was obligated to inform people to save their money and more importantly their time!
