Interstellar (2014)
Visually appealing
Its CGI and optical effects were seamless and the story was interesting, the setup of the film with his family was well done, and all together it was directed very well. My only complaints are that it has some issues with the script, it never gave time for the story to breath and I thought that the last 15 minutes were absolutely unnecessary and could of been done a lot better. But it was a really enjoyable film to watch. My favourite aspect of the film was the amazing production design, but that's not enough to praise this film and give it a higher rating than it deserves. My only complaint is the unnecessary scenes, but that's not enough to hate it and rate this lower than it deserves. So its a tough decision but I'm giving Interstellar a 8/10 for its interesting story, and the fact that it was very entertaining.
A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987)
A wonderful entry in a not so wonderful franchise
A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: The Dream Warriors In this film, Kristen Parker is attacked by Freddy in her dream(s). In the opening scene, upon waking up from being attacked, her mother mistakes her wounds to be that of a suicide attempt, and Kristen is sent to a mental hospital for young people located in Springwood, there she befriends the patients, Dr Gordon, and Nancy Thompson from the first film, the rest of the plot focuses on their struggle to survive and convincing the adults in the film that Freddy exists. For his directorial debut Chuck Russell does an amazing job, But this film in the series drifts away from the style that the first two films featured, instead of it being filled with suspense, it relies mostly on the amazing effects to shock the audience more so than scare them. Which in my opinion isn't really that much of a bad thing, the effects on their own might not terrify the audience, but they are handled in such a fantastic way that its still incredibly entertaining to see such amazing special effects. One aspect that is consisted with the first two films is the interesting characters, along with Kristen played by Patricia Arquette in her first film role, Dr Gordon played by Craig Wasson, Nancy Thompson returning from the first film, again played by Heather Langenkamp. What's interesting about most of these characters is the fact that even though this is a slasher film, the audience genuinely cares about them and they don't feel like cannon fodder that are only there so that they can be killed off in a creative way. Robert England delivers another great performance as Freddy Krueger, but with a lot more lines and screen time it feels distant from how we know him from the first two. Another aspect that it maintains is the amazing visuals, the production design is at its peak in this film, especially with the dream sequences. I don't have a lot of complaints about this film, the effects are great, the characters are good and the acting is good for the most part. My only complaints are that there is a bit of a lack of character devilment with a few of the characters, my other complaint is surprisingly Heather Langenkamp's performance, its good for the most part but with a few of her scenes, her performance comes across as a bit wooden and off. I was originally going to give this film a 6 out of 10, but when I watched it recently in preparation I realized its much better than I once thought, so I'm going to give A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: The Dream Warriors a 7.5 out of 10.
