Movie review - Bumblebee

Bumblebee

Director: Travis Knight

Writer: Christina Hodson

Actors: Hailee Steinfeld, Jorge Lendeborg Jr. and John Cena

My guess: 7,3? - 2019? (6,7 - 2018)

My Points: 7,2 - 3½/5

Well, this was somewhat decent movie...

But, I were almost giving this an "8(/10)" - remembering this was good (when I first time saw it on movie theater).

But, my grade lowered to "7(/10)", this was quite awful movie.

What bothered the most, was the "stupid scenes". There were alot of them.

But if I would list them all, it would take eternity...

John "Agent Burns" Cena was in this one, that was a nice surprise - I didn't remember that. First I didn't like him (in wrestling, Cena), but now I think he's pretty superb. Maybe 'cause he has been in good movies, at first - they were shitty ass hell. For example, 12 Rounds (2009) was terrible.

It was nice to see Pamela "Marcy Runkle" Adlon for a long time. I know her only by Californication (2007-2014).

Then there were Hailee "Charlie" Steinfeld, I like her too. I remember her from True Grit (2010). What a good actress.

But the movie - I mean it "main point", the (Transformers) robots. They were cool, like in every movie.

But sadly, this movie had hope (indeed almost being an "8" movie), but it only got "7" - what a pity...

Movie review - Pan

Pan

Director: Joe Wright

Writers: Jason Fuchs and J.M. Barrie

Actors: Levi Miller, Hugh Jackman and Garrett Hedlund

My guess: 5,8? - 2019? (5,7 - 2015)

My Points: 6,3 - 3+/5

Well, another shitty movie yet again...

E'm I cursed?!

Well, maybe I just voluntarily choose these shitty movies.

What was the singing in this movie? It was good, but the song?! It was brand new... In a pirates movie!?

Well, an unusual choice - that didn't work, at least on me... It just sounded stupid and ridiculous, and did not fit in the context.

This movie just felt ludicrous, but it seemed to have hope. But, it didn't redeem it - a pile of shit, is a stinking...

Crocodiles were pretty nice, but they had too few screen time.

The end battle was pretty nice, not the best - but not the worst.

I wrote down (in the beginning and in the end) two times "shit", and well... That sums it up!

Movie review - The 5th Wave

The 5th Wave

Director: J Blakeson

Writers: Susannah Grant, Akiva Goldsman and Jeff Pinkner

Actors: Chloรซ Grace Moretz, Matthew Zuk and Gabriela Lopez

My guess: 5,4? - 2020? (5,2 - 2016)

My Points: 6,4 - 3+/5

Well, pretty interesting beginning...

But then it turned into shit...

The CGI effect were pretty terrible, looked like cheap garbage. Even this is a big budget movie, at least I think so (by looking the actors/actress, Moretz expecially...)!

What a stupid way to make suspense, by making Chloรซ "Cassie"Grace "Sullivan" Moretz get the idiot stuffed animal for his brother and missing the bus. Boring!

Cassie were way too beatiful. I mean, her face and hair were way to clean - if/when she was in the forest couple of days. But then suddenly her face was dirty, little points for that... But she was way too clean for too long time, expecially her hair.

The action/shooting were terrible. They just shooted everywhere, nobody hitting nothing - which almost every movie tumbles down.

And the plot twist, terrible.

And where was the aliens? Sometimes you saw them flying with their stupid ships, but...

What were they doing on earth, I didn't get that?! Maybe I missed it, or just loose intrest to follow this shit of a pile!

So, this had some sence (some decent plot twist!) - but overall; a pretty damn shitty movie.

I don't recommend this to no one, not even if you wanna watch "no-brain movie". Which (brain) this movie had nothing, useless movie...

Movie review - Spiral: From the Book of Saw

Spiral: From the Book of Saw

Director: Darren Lynn Bousman

Writers: Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger

Actors: Chris Rock, Samuel L. Jackson and Max Minghella

My guess: 6,5? - 2020? (5,2 - 2021)

My Points: 6,5 - 3+/5

Well, this movie was... Shit? I mean, it wasn't the worst - but definately wasn't the best.

It was brutal, so if you like that - then you might like this one...

To me, it (brutality) wasn't "nice" - but it was "watchable".

The stars were surprise (which I knew before watching this), Chris "Detective Zeke Banks" Rock and Samuel "Marcus" L. "Banks" Jackson in "Saw" movie - nice!

The "traps" were nice, although they seemed to be little bit "over". They were way too complicated.

Alhough, I dont remember how they (traps) were in the other Saw movies - but the first one (2004) was very simple.

And nice, I have always liked that one - from the first time in movie theaters. Ofcourse the "first watch" was the best, 'cause you didn't know what's happening.

And the last twist, very nice!

So, the first movie is easily the best, these sequals and whatnot movies are just brainless.

Just to watch with "empty head".

But the first, I definately recommend to see that - instead of this travesty garbage...

Movie review - War Dogs

War Dogs

Director: Todd Phillips

Writers: Stephen Chin, Todd Phillips and Jason Smilovic

Actors: Jonah Hill, Miles Teller and Steve Lantz

My guess: 6,9? - 2018? (7,1 - 2016)

My Points: 7,2 - 3½/5

First of, where have Jonah Hill disappeared? I haven't seen him any movie for ages...

And that is a sad thing, 'cause I like him a lot!

Maybe he will do a comeback?

But on with the review, although I aint got lots to say about it...

Yes, this is a good movie - but there's not much to say.

It was nice to watch, when Jonah "Efraim Diveroli" Hill and Miles "David Packouz" Teller business started to roll on. I was on their side, that it would work.

Well, this is a movie - so ofcourse there are potholes.

The journey to Bangkok (or what it was, I dont remember anymore) was nice. Intense, and some gun shooting.

Bradley "Henry Girard" Cooper was a nice addition, I like him.

David Packouz wife were hot, Ana de "Iz" Armas to be exact.

The music were also nice.

So overall, a pretty decent movie - not the best, but not the worst...

Movie review - The Godfather Part III

The Godfather Part III

Director: Francis Ford Coppola

Writers: Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola

Actors: Al Pacino, Diane Keaton and Andy Garcia

My guess: 7,9? - 1991? (7,6 - 1990)

My Points: 7,4 - 4-/5

Well, this was a little bit better - than the second movie. But not the best, this was also far way from the original part one.

The new character; Andy "Vincent Mancini" Garcรญa did a nice job advancing the mob ladder.

Al "Michael Corleone" Pacino's heart attack were nice. I don't mean, it was "nice" - but good plot twist.

The "horse cop" shootout at the parade was nice.

This movie seemed to have a point, in the second movie - it was just pointless. This one was intresting all the time, 'cause of the good point.

Michael Corleone's confession was nice, him sobbing about.

But Michael wasn't "godfatherly like", he wondered around almost alone. There wasn't much of security guard. Or maybe they were hidden, or it has his "own" village. Don't know.

But in the first movie, Marlon "Don Vito Corleone" Brando really feel'ed like a godfather - Michael on the hand (in this third movie); NOT!

At the end half, the opera - it was a little bit too long, and boring... But the ending of the movie were kinda nice!

But overall, a pretty satisfying movie - not the best, but not the worst.

So the first one was easily the best (grade: 7,8), then came this - the third one (grade: 7,4) and the second one was the worst (grade: 7,2).

But overall, a pretty damn good trilogy. Will they ever made more of these, I don't think so... But maybe a reboot, that would be possible.

But I'm afraid, that it (reboot) would be a shitty one - so hopefully they don't make it...

This is just good, as it is now - a nice trilogy!
