Oppenheimer (2023)
A plane without engines
Imagine arriving at the airport, ready to board a flight, only to discover that the plane has no engines. Consequently, there will be no trip. Well, this movie is no different. It lacks taste, is tedious, excessively long, and lacks a solid vision or cinematography. Christopher Nolan's amateurish script, underdeveloped characters, unnecessary soundtracks, and arrogant cinematic perspective have ruined the film. I fail to comprehend the overhyped praise surrounding this movie. Furthermore, the recommendation to watch it in IMAX theaters is baffling. Additionally, the movie focuses on Oppenheimer, yet even after enduring a lengthy three hours, there are numerous gaps in the storyline, leaving me feeling the need to conduct extensive research to grasp how and why these events occurred.
I hold great admiration for Christopher Nolan's previous works such as "The Prestige," "Insomnia," "Interstellar," and "Inception," but this particular film is a major disappointment.
As a side note, I was compelled to reserve my ticket 72 hours in advance due to the full capacity of IMAX theaters. However, I can confidently say that there is no discernible difference between watching this movie on a 6-inch cellphone or in an IMAX theater. Ultimately, there isn't a single visually captivating scene to savor!
Air (2023)
Ridiculously Overrated
Avoid watching this movie in theaters at any cost. This movie is empty, tasteless and it kept ridiculously promoting Jordan like he is a prophet or a messenger of god..seriously they avoided to capture his face during the entire movie like he is a holy prophet or sth 😂while on the other hand the sequence of the story made it like a cheap Netflix movie at best..not something to pay a cinema ticket on, I remorse paying $7 on this movie and I feel sad for the actors..they played it good but the story and the logic behind it is absolute nonsense. And yes let's be scrupulous about it, this movie acting as that nike and Jordan cured cancer and saved humanity!.
Ambulance (2022)
Trash in trash out
The story is about a bank robbery similar to the one in Heat " the movie". However the storyline and the acting level are struggling behind and everything seems to be fake and can't convince a 6 years old kid!.
The movie is all about a mighty power ambulance vehicle that has been robbed by two thieves while trying to escape from the police after the bank robbery, and the police with all their helicopters, snipers, dodge cars and thousands of bullets can't stop the ambulance !, this ambulance vehicle is equivalent to the mighty train we all saw in GTA IV, no matter how many stars are chasing you..the train is
Unstoppable no matter what!.
I'll mention two scenes that shed the light on the childish script.
First scene: the head of task force was heavily annoyed when he figured out that his dog " Nitro" was inside one of the police cars while chasing the ambulance vehicle and paused the chasing operation to get Nitro out !
Second scene: a wounded officer inside the vehicle got his spleen raptured because of the bullets and he got the surgery done inside the vehicle without anesthesia and without surgeons ! Just two random guys made a video call with surgeons and followed the steps and whoa the officer is fine!, the officer would show more pain if he got his teeth removed!. Horrible acting.
Don't bother yourself and watch this movie in the theater or even at your home. Do anything but don't watch!
The Batman (2022)
Not good
Erase Christopher Nolan's batman saga from your memory before watching this title and don't expect anything similar.
The story line and the performance of the actors can be considered absurd.
Batman's car is a big joke. In addition to mediocre stunts..
I recommend watching this movie while you are lying on your sofa not in a theater" not worth it"
The Godfather (1972)
The re-release of the masterpiece
I consider this movie as one of the best movies of all time and used to watch it on tv and I was really excited to re-watch the 50 years old movie in cinema ! And to be honest this is the best re-release I have ever seen.
50 years old movie with better quality than modern some modern movie
Recommendation: go and watch it in the cinema..it's a masterpiece hands down.
Uncharted (2022)
Below Average
I used to be a fan of the game on Playstation hence I had a very high expectations for this movie especially because I watched it in IMAX, but eventually it disappointed me..the quality of acting, cinematography, storyline is equivalent to Netflix cheap movies...
--not worth it--
Loft (2008)
A hidden gem!
I couldn't watch this movie for many years because of its language but I finally found its subtitles and it is a Very entertaining movie to watch, worth watching..solid 9.
Reminiscence (2021)
Average movie
This movie could be much better with better effects and better directing..
Definitely this movie isn't 2 or 3 /10 like some reviews claim. It's around 7/10.
Stillwater (2021)
worth watching !
Don't expect anything similar to "taken" or "john wick" techniques in this movie but you can expect a stellar performance by Matt Damon.
From my own perspective the movie made a minor spotlight on the immigrants stories whether in France or USA.
Bill baker is an Oklahoman who is willing to do anything to help his daughter after 5 years of being in jail when she informs him about a new evidence related to the real murderer.
Bill Baker comes from a humble background and he doesn't speak french and he used to work in drilling companies and he knows nothing but drilling however as a father he decides to stay in France and work as an electrician while exploring the complex diversity in Marseille until he finds clues about the whole story.
I watched this movie in Egypt and the cinema hall was full and no one left until the very end, They all enjoyed the movie despite being long.
I didn't like the end but the movie was great.
The Lighthouse (2019)
10/10 acting skills 0 for the storyline
I kept watching this movies because of the visual effects and the cinematography in addition to the world class acting however the story is boring and the pace of the movie is really slow that's why I give it 5/10.
This movie can be considered an "art house" movie like it's suitable for movie festivals and nominations but not suitable for Average audiences who are seeking entertainment.
Oldeuboi (2003)
Waste of time
Pathetic
I wasted two hours of my life
I would prefer to watch Tom and jerry over watching this !
Tenet (2020)
Tenet or Tenet
Well the name of the movie can give you a glance it's named" Tenet" and if you spell it backwards it will be "Tenet" too! For instance the entire movie is based on such simple but brilliant idea which is traveling in time like going from "tenet" to "tenet" may sound confusing , right? Ok that's why this movie is a masterpiece.
Actors had very solid performance and the story is mind blowing with many details to focus on.
I watched the movie in imax and I can say quite simply this movie is another masterpiece directed by Christopher Nolan...the cinematography and effects are extremely astonishing...highly recommended movie!
Zero Distance (2020)
Saudi movie
To be fair I can't compare such movie with the matured american movie industry hence the movie is absolutely great when compared to other saudis movies..
8/10 for extremely astonishing beginning in Saudi movie industry. I watched it on Netflix tho
A Simple Plan (1998)
Average movie
The acting skills of the cast are absolutely great, the cinematography and the scenes where they used to shot is brilliant HOWEVER the story and the incidents are non-logic and not necessarily...
6/10 for acting skills and shooting scenes " pros"
"cons" STORY
The Lobster (2015)
P a t h e t i c
Stay away and don't watch, This movie is around 2 hours however the pace of the movie makes it like 6 hours of the boring, illogical story.. this movie needs a user manual to understand even when if you have the user manual you can't enjoy such thing! miserable experience.
Ford v Ferrari (2019)
If you're a fan of rush movie you'll enjoy this
This is one of the best racing movies along with rush hence if you liked rush you'll like this movie but honestly rush was better in terms of directing and storyline however this movie is amazing because of the solid performances of Christian and Matt..is it worth watching ? DEFINITELY YES..it's one of the very few movies that are long but you really don't want the movie to end like you are enjoying every single moment of the movie just like driving a Ferrari or something you don't feel the time!
Joker (2019)
overrated
This movie is good but can't match the performance of heath ledger in the legendary 2008 movie "dark knight"...7 is more than enough for this movie don't follow these 10 ratings !!! worth watching ? yes but not the best as some children claim!!
