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!

Movie review - The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

Director: Tom Gormican

Writers: Tom Gormican & Kevin Etten

Actors: Nicolas Cage, Pedro Pascal & Tiffany Haddish

My guess: 7,2? - 2021? (7,0 - 2022)

My Points: 6,6 - 3+/5

Well, this is gonna be a short one...

The movie was pretty okay, but not that good - that I have lots to say about this one.

It was nice, that the 'guys' spoke of Nick Cage other movies - like he were a 'real' guy.

And what I mean by 'real', this movie was ridicilous. Nick Cage would have died immediately, in real life...

I dont have any example, but... he would have died very soon, if he were a 'real' guy.

Nick Cages 'old stuff' were great, best one was his golden guns!

And thats it, I got nothing else to say...

Except, that I expected a four star movie, but this travesty just got little over three stars.

So it was a dissapointment, not all bad - but... Pretty bad, I aint gonna buy this on my (DVD/Blu-ray/4K) collection.

Sad, 'cause this had potential...

P.S. And yes, I know he's whole name is "Nicholas" - but in the movie it was shortened to "Nick". Don't know, is he "just Nick" in somewhere else (e.g. in the entertainment magazines), but... Yea!
