The First Omen (2024)
Refreshingly GOOD! Why are the ratings so low!???
I hate prequels, sequels and remakes
I hate hollywood horror movies
I have never seen the Omen movies but am aware of the loose concept of them
Recently I have been unable to get further than maybe 20 minutes into any Hollywood movie out of sheer boredom and lack of interest
As a matter of fact. Ironically. The last movie I tried to watch was "Immaculate" which is VIRTUALLY the same movie as this.....only far far inferior
This film had me hooked from the start.
The superb casting and beautifully shot starting sequence drew me in and my attention was grabbed.
The acting all round was superb with Maggie doing an excellent job and really highlighting just how poor of an actress Sydney Sweeney is.
Given that this is a prequel to a very famous franchise. You would think it would hold very little intrigue as the final outcome cant really be much of a SURPRISE.....but it actually manages to keep you interested with its nicely evolving plot and very attractively cinematography
Spoilers
Few minor criticisms
.
What was the point in Father Gabriel exactly ???
And the flame effects in the nuns death scene were shockingly bad
Apart from that. I could not believe 2 hours had past!
The pacing was perfect as I usually check the duration out in movies but not here
I only wish I had seen it in the cinema!!
Very good movie and previous knowledge of the Omen movies are not required whatsoever as I had none going into this (aside from a devil child)
Well done!!
Violent Night (2022)
Just.....AWFUL
I must be just old. I just found this so difficult to sit through. Its just stupid. The soundtrack is annoying. I dont care about any of the Characters. Is it a comedy? What is it? Like , I can't even think of anything positive to say? The opening scene in the "english" pub is just OFFENSIVELY bad. Why do they cast Australians to play english people? Can I be offended please??? Or is that not allowed?
Im ASSUMING the whole "is Die Hard an action movie or a christmas movie" millennial debate has finally materialised as an entity of its own in this movie..
But I will never know how the final quarter pf the movie pans out because the first 75% was just as much as I could handle.
Utter GARBAGE.
The Exorcists (2022)
This is hilarious 😂
Just watch it. Please just watch it. Funniest film I've seen in years !!!!
Maybe its not meant to be funny but that doesn't matter. It still entertained the hell outta me!! Hahaha.
There are lots of films that were meant to be scary but with the lack of budget or the lack of acting skills, it comes across as either hammy or cheesey. This comes across as just...hilarious
I cant imagine that half way through this filming process, especially the editing process, that these film makers did not see how funny it was coming accross???? 😆
Especially the main exorcist guy . I was crying watching him do his thing!
South Park: Post Covid (2021)
Utter YAWN fest
Everything covid related is BORING
The writers are just putting any old rubbish out there
It's embarrassing now
Stop it dudes please
You cant make covid funny or interesting. Im sick of hearing about this silly little virus I want my comedies to make me forget how crap life is.
I would watch BLACK MIRROR if I wanted this kinda crap.
Just STOP.
The Guilty (2021)
MELODRAMATIC SOCIAL ENGINEERING AGAIN!
We really are in an age of zero class aren't we?
It is true of the stories and it is also true about acting talent
More of the gender-bending agenda again that sees Jake "give me an oscar for crying constantly because I'm stressed out" Gyllenhaal do just that in this monotone Netflix garbage
Only fitting it should end in a gender-neutral restroom as it seems any male lead these days is quite contempt to portray weak little cry babies fall to their knees in the loo while the women leads are "kicking butt" in all the other movies
It wasn't gripping or interesting . It was over the top hot headed garbage pretending to have a conscience
When in reality, it was dull and lifeless
Stop trying to be MOVING and entertain us with Good stories that are free from politica , corporate and social engineering agendas!!
Free Guy (2021)
Nice idea but so boringly corporate
To be honest, if these type of ideas were done on a smaller budget and with less interference from corporate and political agendas. It would be nice.
But thats not the case, so If your aware of trigger words that are used to embed ideology into young impressionable minds, then your in for a very uncomfortable ride with this level of movie making.
I want to be ENTERTAINED not socially ENGINEERED!!!!
I checked out after hearing the new buzz word "white privilege"
Nasty.
Malignant (2021)
Only in 2021 can there be an audience DUMB enough to like this
What the hell?????
Hollywood KITCHEN SINK hurled at the screen
Was it paranormal??? Was it physical???
Who are some of the cast??? A character POPS up here, FLOATS to another scene LOUD NOISE ....a person FALLS tbru a ceiling. A woman is TIED up somewhere LOUD BANG...the DEVIL is mentioned. An spooky ASYLUM is in it one minute.
Then a history of violence. A twist appears and it feels a bit clearer for a SECOND
Then a TUMOR is the twist but...its host is unaware in bed while it kills pol on the other side of town....fighting coppers underground...the tumor is like NEO from the MATRIX but its still the main woman !????. They metaphorically fight for control at the end....
The pace is SHOCKING...the look is cliche.
Seriously....that was BEYOND insulting.
The action was good tho
It was like a modern matrix....
God that film was bad. SO BAD!!!
The Forever Purge (2021)
Spare yourself . Go bounce a ball in the garden instead
Why bother watching a movie seeking entertainment when all you get is a one sided political slant of a positive immigration agenda SHOVED down your throat yet AGAIN.
They might as well have just filmed a man in a black suit , staring down the lens saying "immigration is the future, immigration is great" for 90 minutes
Rip entertainment.
Coming 2 America (2021)
Torture
Does the score EVER STOP in new movies?
Its like a musical. Constantly reminding you what mood to be in. Which is kinda useful in a movie like this where you just don't care whats going on.
Its a mess. Its flat. Its ANNOYING and its instantly forgettable. Nice to see lots of the original cast. But boy is this a painful experience to endure. So glad it was FREE on Prime. I couldn't bare having to pay a penny for this utter garbage.
Question tho....is this comedy now? Fast moving scenes where grown ups act like idiots? Its just people behaving SILLY. Its AWFUL. Its like how the movie Idiocracy predicted a dumb future where movie goers will be sitting watching a movie of an naked ASS for 90 minutes. Just so bad
RIP Cinema basically
Before I Wake (2016)
Wow
Ive always hated mediocrity.
Its always the been the worst thing to me.
But with the quality of most arts rapidly declining in the modern world, Ive even managed to adjust to THAT..
But then there are films like this....
So going thru the motions ....
What does he do for a living? Who cares?
Who is she? Doesn't matter. She floats around the house.
Why doesn't sunlight penetrate through school windows on summer days? It doesn't matter,
Its a horror movie. They make it look dark - deal with it and be scared of stuff
Nothing matters....only the things you NEED to know matter. There is ZERO characterisations. No chemistry.
Just ...these people lost their kid. These people get this kid who does blah blah.
And then the real reason Im writing this
BOSWORTH ....wow
I had to check her age. Because shes doing that hollywood , hurtling towards the age of 60 thing where shes frightened to pull too many facial expressions incase it CRACKS or something. I mean. Even plastic KIDMAN still acts in her movies to some degree. But botox-bosworth is only 35 here...why???
She virtually could be replaced by a cardboard cut out version of herself. So plastic and dead...just like the rest of the movie....but its fine coz whats his name is all cool and rockstar-like with his long hair and leaning against walls n stuff Haha
Not a BAD concept under all blandness somewhere actually. Which is why i gave it SOME points. But boy is it drowned
AWFUL
1BR (2019)
HILARIOUS when you quickly realise its over aiming
I gave this a 5 purely because it made me laugh how BAD it was!!! Haha
The psychology was BEYOND feeble
The SCALE of the community was FARCICAL
I found myself saying
ITS A BLOCK OF FLATS!!!!! 😆😆😆😆
Dont rent it like I did. But do watch it for a laugh
Stir Crazy (1980)
Second Half ????????? Where are you!??????
Strangest anomaly of a movie this.
When Im asked my favourite comedies. This is never far down in my mental list when put on the spot...
But when I got to say the words "Stir Crazy"
I tend to stop myself...why????
Because the film stops DEAD in its tracks half way through !!!!!!????
It wouldn't bother so much if the FIRST half wasn't SO good!! But it REALLY IS very very good! And on board for being one of the all time best comedies. I mean seriously THAT good. For people who do not believe in on comic chemistry. Need to see these two in this film.
Im giving this a 7 and it might be my favourite ever movie to lose out on two extra vital points.
Because I will give a 7 to many other movies that are not as memorable or entertaining as the first half of this movie is.
Just such a shame it went from prison comedy to prison escape movie
Ali (2001)
Obnoxious....unsurprisingly
I tried to avoid this movie, just like every biographical
movie thats ever been made. But it was on tv and i caught it.
Yeah, now I wish I had just turned the channel over.
But it was the lesser of many evils on tv tonight.
Awful...worse than I could have imagined.
If theres a man who DOESN'T need a movie about him its ALI...just sift through youtube. The time will just FLY by watching old Ali spots. Forget this rubbish
Creed II (2018)
I was rooting for the Drago camp
You will watch this because your already a lifelong fan but my god this is rubbish.
It is just completely soul less. By far the weakest of all the series. The first Creed was good and had some grit. This one is LONG and FEELS it too.
The story is silly and kind of does tamper with the Rocky 4 legacy a bit.
I was genuinely rooting for the Russians in this movie
