Movie review - The 5th Wave

The 5th Wave

Director: J Blakeson

Writers: Susannah Grant, Akiva Goldsman and Jeff Pinkner

Actors: Chloë 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 Chloë "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" García 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!

Movie review - The Godfather Part II

The Godfather Part II

Director: Francis Ford Coppola

Writers: Francis Ford Coppola and Mario Puzo

Actors: Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and Robert Duvall

My guess: 7,7? - 1981? (9,0 - 1974)

My Points: 7,2 - 3½/5

A very slow beginning, VERY SLOW!

Well, this movie is so long (3h 22min) - so there has to be lots of 'boring' scenes.

But, there also almost didn't have any point. Like this were a over due tv-show.

This was far away from the first movies awesomene's.

In the end, there where finally something happening, but...

This was slow, and kinda boring movie.

I dont get, how this got 9.0 points (on IMDb)?!

This is maybe the worst of the trilogy, I cant think how the "Part III" can be worst than this...

Well, this has better grade (on IMDb), but I'm guessing this one is the worst - of the Godfather trilogy...

Well, the next movie - what I will review - will be the third and last movie. Then we will know the order of these movies (at least in my opinion...)!

Movie review - The Godfather

The Godfather

Director: Francis Ford Coppola

Writers: Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola

Actors: Marlon Brando, Al Pacino and James Caan

My guess: 8,4? - 1978? (9,2 - 1972)

My Points: 7,8 - 4/5

Well, a very good movie - but not "that good".

I'm referring to IMDb's points; 9,2/10 and second best on the "top rated movies". I only gave 7,8/10, which is also a good grade - but far away from IMDb's...

Marlon "Don Vito Corleone" Brandon's "offer he can't refuse", very nice classic sentence! The horses head on the bed, I'm speechless how good it was.

The restaurant shooting were nice.

James "Sonny Corleone" Caan was nice, when he defended his sister honor, by beating the "woman (her sister) hitter".

The "car shootout" was nice scene, a definate classic.

It was nice, when Al "Michael Corleone" Pacino took over "the family". The ending was nice, the door slowly closing...

Very nice!
