Pinocchio (I) (2022)
7/10
Nostalgic and refreshing
8 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Some new songs and some very known actors like you haven't seen them before. Very playful and fun.

The story of Pinocchio like you know it with added scenes. We get to see a bit more of Gepetto and get a look from his perspective. Visually some parts could've been better. Pinocchio looks more plastic than wood, but it's at least a Pinocchio we recognize from the original, instead of the bad knock offs we've seen a lot. There have been so many movies about Pinocchio, but at least this was does the original justice. Some may complain it's too much like the animated version, but there have been so many rip offs (well, some were original in their way), but the people. Who've grown up on the animated Disney version, will get that nostalgic feel.

Wouldn't call this a masterpiece, but it did not dissapoint and was an enjoyable watch.

Too obvious most are actors
21 February 2022
It's so bad, it's almost funny.

Obviously staged, made up and acted out.

I love a good mystery, but these people are so bad, it laughable. They way of speaking and the facial expressions of "witnesses, you can see they are B actors. It's sad really. Regardless of you believe this stuff or not, if they would've used 'real' investigators' and 'witnesses' it at least would've been interesting.

Eternals (2021)
7/10
Different, but refreshing
3 November 2021
Visually stunning.

Different "vibe" than we know of Marvel, but very refreshing. Would almost say more calming and suiting. Love that it wasn't a cliché group, but very diverse, which just makes total sense.

Don't forget: Some Avengers already had their solo films to explain the origin of their story. Even though it's not fully explained for the Eternals, almost each character will get (a part of) their story explained. This takes time and some might consider this too long with a slow pace. However very necessary for the film.

Could've used a little more action, but think upcoming film(s) will have more of that and maybe even some solo films? It definitely leaves an open window for (a lot) more and the movie was interesting enough to leave you with questions you want to have answered!

PS. Keep seated during the credits for the two addition scenes. You want to see more after this.

PS. Proud of Angie. Very layered character. Love the roles she chooses to play.

Realism instead of over-the-top Hollywood disaster movie
14 May 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I really liked that they didn't overdo it. Not the Hollywood over-spectacular disaster movie. But just very realistic. Real relatable characters, real survivor instinct, realistic environment. The beginning was a bit slow though, but after that I was pretty good. The ending needs a bit of explaining... What was in that note? Why all the killing? What's the exact secrets?

Tom and Jerry (II) (2021)
5/10
Tom & Jerry deserved a better plot
28 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I only gave this a 6, but the parts of Tom & Jerry were nostalgic and enjoyed. But that is it. The story is lame and the cast horrible. I wanted a movie about Tom & Jerry. Their own background and origin. Not something about a lame hotel and a weird over the top wedding being planned. Than you can put Tom & Jerry in any film. It should've been about them.

Come Away (2020)
6/10
Different than expected, but beautiful.
12 December 2020
Maybe it ain't a masterpiece, but the 1 or 2 ratings are ridiculous. I believe people have the wrong expectations. It's about that imagination of children during very real life experiences. The movie is layered between the sad and hard reality of life and the innocent dreams and fantasy of a child. The links between two popular stories is fun to see. If you get the clue of this movie, I'm sure you'll love it. Go in the wrong expectations, you might be disappointed... but try to be realistic when you rate a movie. Look at the acting, the script and the meaning of the film.
