Road House (2024)
8/10
Beautiful fighting sequences
23 May 2024
I went into this movie with a blank mind and with no expectation as to how it will turned up and I must say I really did enjoy this. Jake Gyllenhaal's portrayal is exceptional, bringing depth to his character in a movie that excels in its fighting sequences. The plot, while straightforward, is engaging, and the film shines in its character development. Kudos to the stunt team and choreographers whose skillful work elevates the action, creating thrilling and visually stunning fight scenes. This film is a testament to the art of action cinema and comes highly recommended for its entertainment value and the sheer spectacle of its choreography.

Shōgun (2024–2026)
9/10
Beautiful and rich in Japanese Culture.
19 April 2024
Shogun stands out as a rare gem in today's television landscape. Gone are the days of sprawling epics that delve deeply into a foreign culture. This series is a magnificent exception, weaving a masterful narrative rich in the tapestry of Japanese customs and traditions. It's not just about sword fights (though there are some!), but rather a captivating exploration of leadership, loyalty, and the intricate dance between those who rule and those who serve. Be prepared to be surprised by the lengths some will go to in the pursuit of power and the unwavering dedication of others. If you crave a show that goes beyond the clash of steel and offers a deeper, more nuanced story, then Shogun is a must-watch.

Bring On Part Three!!!
19 April 2024
Dune: Part Two absolutely blew me away! For years, I thought adapting Frank Herbert's masterpiece was a fool's errand. But then Denis Villeneuve stepped in, and let me tell you, the man's a visionary. He's a master world-builder, and the one he's created for Dune is simply unparalleled. Every detail, from the harsh beauty of Arrakis to the intricate designs of the Fremen culture, feels meticulously crafted and utterly believable. The casting is spot-on too; each actor embodies their character perfectly, bringing depth and nuance to even the most minor roles. And let's not forget the action! The explosions are heart-stoppingly real, the fight choreography is top-notch, and every battle sequence is a visceral thrill ride. Dune: Part Two is a masterclass in filmmaking, a rich and immersive experience that leaves you wanting desperately for more. Part Three can't come soon enough!

Why Marvel?
10 September 2022
The movie sucks to be honest, bad plot.... infact the only thing I loved about this movie is Christian Bale as Gorr. His performance and look were so rich and incredible. That's all! The rest of the movie is Soo that I tried my possible best to sit through. I mean why would Marvel do something like this? Also what happened to the special effects team? The VFX was so poor in this movie; looked cartoonish and cheap, with un-laughable humor... Only humor I did enjoy aside Bale was the bleating and screaming from the Goats. This is a very forgettable movie and will definitely not add this to my library cuz I feel so ashamed of it. Production and directing were too poor and won't recommend this to anyone.

Wow! A Reference Material.
17 August 2022
This is indeed a masterpiece movie, loved every bit of this movie from performances to stunts. Tom Cruise at his best as usual and with daring stunts. The plot felt a bit weak at the initial stages but picked up and with a perfect blend of an unseen action in any movie hence putting it in a reference position in my books. I highly recommend this 👌🏾. Wish there were more movies like this.

Satisfying to watch.
14 July 2022
Beautiful story line and performances. I did enjoy every bit of this. Has some eye teary part and some courageous moments. Did a good job of putting you in the kid shoes and fearing for them... You really get attached to the characters and it does make the movie a worthy watch.

Worst of them all 👎🏾
14 July 2022
I think is the worst sequel of them all, the prequels were so much better than this. They had no unique story plot, characters were uninspiring and dialogues were too lame. Really disappointed in this. On the other side the CGIs were realistic and blended well with the environment.

Epic in all aspects 👌🏾
22 June 2022
Noticed this has some bad reviews on here but seriously.... I got what I expected from this sequel. The plot made so much sense and will continue to make sense in upcoming phases of the marvel universe. Performances from Elizabeth Olsen were exceptional...far more than her Avengers Cameo. Also the CGIs and the ATMOS will make you appreciate every fight scene; very impactful and beautiful. This movie made so much sense to me and I think it will play a very vital role in subsequent movies.... they just used this to create an open end to begin and build other new franchises.

Touching & Moving.
2 June 2022
Really enjoyed this one, was a bit slow but loved every moment. This 8s good enough to even make an u religious person think twice about a supernatural beings. Mark Wahlberg as usual was astounding in performance and dialogues... movie has it's funny moments and some scenes can put a tear in your eye. Highly recommend this one for some perspective.

Morbius (2022)
9/10
Beautiful plot with epic effects.
15 May 2022
This is one movie I got tired of waiting for. Well it turned out to be really good and falls in my favorites now. The plot was very well written, with great performances. What really made me marvel were the special effects... They really paid attention to detail to represent it as accurate as possible; made me hungry for more fight scenes..... No spoilers, I highly recommend this.

The Northman (2022)
5/10
Brutal but feels like a concert play.
13 May 2022
I might have expected too much from this movie to get a little disappointed. Loved the timeline, loved the plot, loved the action but hated the acting and some dialogues.... They felt amateur and seemed like they over did it for it to lack the natural feeling and response. Some dialogues were never meant to be said cuz of how childish they felt.... Nonetheless the movie has some beautiful scenes and portrays a real Norse folklore.

Uncharted (2022)
8/10
None seen before stunts.
24 April 2022
This movie is fun to watch, few action and a little weak plot but fun to watch. Strong not seen before action and stunts. Typical raiding and the hunt for big gold stash. Tom Holland is growing up to be on my list of favorite characters of all time on which I already have Mark Whalberg; their performances and team work were exceptional. Some characters like Antonio Bandaras weren't even supposed to be in the movie cuz of a none important role. I hope they continue to build a franchise from this and can't wait for a sequel. You hardly see good movies like this.

Ambulance (2022)
8/10
Fast paced action from start to finish.
22 April 2022
Typical Michael Bay movie, full of action, wicked drone shots and camera pannings, explosions but a weak story. The plot is easy to forget but the action sequences are not. Not to forget the editing and cut scenes felt weird early on in the movie though with Wonderful performances from Jake and Abdul, you will be hooked to your seat till end. Recommend this for some good time with the boys.

X (II) (2022)
8/10
Unique from the rest.
19 April 2022
Had no expectations, went in blind and was blown away. This is different from what we have. Lots of gnashing and cringing moments... Nice performances and the effects were on point. I highly recommend this.... brings some fresh coating to the horror genre.

The Batman (2022)
6/10
Too slow with too much unnesessary voice whispering.
18 April 2022
Too slow to maintain any excitement in me.... it's a good movie all right, great performance and dark looks from Robert Pattinson, few great action sequences and loved the whole idea of the dark theme but.....

To much voice whispering made everything too unrealistic, some unnecessary slow-mos and lack of some good action for more than half of the movie. This made me watch the movie in two halves cuz I got too tired and bored at some point. Story plot wasn't strong enough to make me excited and go through the movie in one sitting but that's just me.

Beautiful plot with some brilliant performances for the cast especially from Mark Rylance; just loved his composure and the narration. Movie is a bit slow but with interesting turns every now and then... makes it hard to ignore. Highly recommend this.

One hour into the movie and still nothing.
30 March 2022
This can never be compared to Knives Out. Great actors, cool performances but story build-up sucks. I literally had to turn it off after 1 hour 6 minutes. This is a disappointment. Guess the trailer made me too excited.

Moonfall (2022)
2/10
Space and AI are a bad combination.
30 March 2022
This movie is bad.... Will just go straight to the point. It meakes no sense, performances and dialogues were too lame, childish and happens too fast. For the CGI, the car chase part was like a video game.... Looks similar to what they did in Train to Busan 2 - Peninsula... too fake and looks bad for my liking. Will just advice on skipping this or watching it on a booze night.

Dog (I) (2022)
8/10
Beautiful movie to make you feel human.
13 March 2022
Lovely movie about a man and a dog with full of laughter and emotions. Tatum's performance had always been incredibly genuine and the selection of musics with dog performances make this a Worthy movie to watch and appreciate. Fun for a family night.

No Exit (I) (2022)
8/10
Solid Movie
1 March 2022
Some great directing from Powers on this one. This movie gives no clues as to what to happen and hence makes every scene appreciable. It does so well that it even makes you feel the pain the characters go through to an extent it even makes it painful to watch. I really digged the performances of these characters and highly recommend this movie...a great one to enjoy.

Lame storyline but wicked action sequences.
9 February 2022
Movie isn't too bad, unlike the first one, this lacked storyline and great performances. Will say it does well with the humour and packs a few surprises. One thing that really made me enjoy this movie was the action. Yeah this has some great action sequences and impactful camera pannings....nice job to the team responsible....other than that, this just another movie that can easily be forgotten.

Powerful, this is just solid. A very inspirational story that will make you tear up....a story that is so rare and unique in football. Perfectly performed by great actors. Highly recommend this for the sport fans.
