Nobody - 8/10


I normally pass on action films but Bob Odenkirk has an eye for scripts so i figured there was something here and sure enough there was. this is about as good of an action flick you could hope to get. Its a very good script that avoids being generic like the genre is drawn to. the action is violent and weighty. the soundtrack is SUPERB. cinematography, which is very difficult to do well with action, is good and often even great. this is a very good action movie and im glad i watched it.

That is good news. It should have a hell of a lot of action, much more than the first half.

I wonder if they will exclusively use the weirding modules from the original film or if they will actually try to adapt the weirding way style of hand to hand combat from the books? I think with modern CG they could pull off actually adapting it the way it was in the books this time around. I hope they do anyways. Using both would also be ok.

They have pretty comprehensively ignored Lynch’s version, which is good.
I like the original but the Dune you see in this film is almost the main character of the film.

Never read Dune, never seen the original movie or whatever else there was.... barely know anything about it.... something about a big sand worm and spice that must flow.....

Trailers and whatever for the new one didn't really make me want to rush out to see it....

An American Werewolf in London 7/10 (probably more 6/10, but Jenny Agutter bumps it up a score)

Us 8/10

Ring (original Japanese version) 7.5/10
Not as good as I remember, but it still creeped the hell out of me.

Parasite - 9/10


really exceptional. im tired so i wont go into a big thing. kerea has tension down to a science and on the surface it delivers exactly that wrapped in a really imaginative plot but this film goes was beyond that. the socioeconomic commentary on South Korean culture is really outstanding. film is incredibly deep and very smart. it twists the knife in its critique of both sides of the growing caste system and is equally unflattering to both. great film. its as close to a 10 as it gets. if the film sticks with me over the years it could easily become one.

Eternals - 7/10

I had low expectations going in, as the trailers didn't really do anything for me and the source material bored me to tears, but I ended up enjoying this, overall.

Right off the bat, this would have worked far better as a disney+ series. You've got an entire team of characters being introduced, and a plot that's perhaps even grander in scale than endgame. That said, this is not X-men: Apocalypse. This film actually does a pretty damn good job getting you invested in the many characters and story, despite fitting it all in a single film. It's just not as satisfying as it could have been if it had more time.

It's also been brought to my attention that a large portion of the negativity around this film comes from review bombers upset that the film has a diverse cast and a gay character. Having seen the film, I can safely say that the parallels between extreme woke crowds bombing ghost in the shell for "white washing" and extreme anti-woke crowds bombing this for diversity pandering, would be hilarious if it weren't so depressing. They're two sides of the same coin, and the world would be a better place if said coin got chucked into the sun. The cast is diverse because it has to be, given who these characters are and the effect they have on human history. The gay character just happens to be gay, just like some characters happen to be straight. There's no lgbtq acceptance message anywhere in the movie.

Anyway, moving away from all THAT, this is probably one of, if not the most gorgeously shot films in the mcu. So I'm kind of torn on whether it should have been a tv show or not, as you definitely couldn't have achieved the visual grandeur on a TV budget, disney+ or otherwise.

I think there's going to be people who absolutely love this film. I also think there are people who will hate it. I can't see destor letting some of this movies faults slide as much as I have, for instance. It's definitely not the typical mcu film so it's going to be devisive. They got balls though, to not only try something like that, but do it with an entirely new cast of characters. Gives me hope that marvel is willing to venture out of its comfort zone to keep things from going stagnant.

I'm saying there's not, and that's a good thing. This is how including more lgbtq roles should be done. Characters who just are gay rather than sub plots about them being gay and how you had better be okay with that.

in a word: boring


im not going to write much on this because it doesnt deserve it. the source material is dull so the film at least held true. jumbled plot. far too much going on. the exposition is needed to establish future films but this whole thing is a massive slog.

i think they should have watched highlander and wrote the script with that methodology. its a wonderful blue print for telling stories across time.

I loved Makkari. Likeable character, and she stole the show in every fight scene she was a part of. I greatly appreciate that they didn't go with the "speedster see's everything in slow motion" trope that's been in so many movies and shows. She's shown running and fighting in real time, but it's shot in such a way that you can still tell what she's doing. Very well done. If they were to take one character from this to join the Avengers and show up in other films, I'd pick her.

her powers were appealing unlike...everyone else. a speedster theif is a fun idea but im not sure id say she was a defined character (an issue that plagues every character in the film other than Icarus) so im unsure if i care if she comes back or not.

and thats really the issue with the movie in a nut shell. half the run time is seeking out a host of characters we dont know and never get to know. it just shouts that the stakes are super high and we need to care cause stakes.

Pikes arc the biggest causality. it has the legs to be really fulfilling arc but if you timed the screen time dealing with the set up id be shocked if it had 7 min of screen time.

if you cut half the characters, kept the run time and used it to tell a more focused narrative youd have something thats going to get these characters over.

simply "we dont know where everyone is" and then by hearing about the events of the film in future films the reunite in full. everyone gets properly established.

this instead is akin to skipping all of phase 1 and starting with an avengers film out of the gate.
