Power Rangers Wild Force (2002–2003)
8/10
Not as great as Time Force, but still another favorite one of mine!
14 June 2018
This season that followed the ever-so-awesome season of Time Force was bit of a couple levels down of awesomeness, but it still part of my Top 5 and I still do recommend this season. Let get into the Premise.

Over 3000 years ago, these ancient monsters known as "Orgs" have been extinct thanks to these legendary heroes that were known as the "Wild Force Rangers", but in 3000 years later in 2002, they rises again and continues to ruled the world with the help of their returned leader, Master Org. But eventually the Mentor Princess Shayla, who have been resting through-out all the years on the unknown island known as Animarium, contacted five people whose personalities matches that of the Rangers and their animal spirits, Cole, a kind-spirited young man with a passion for animals and was raised in the Amazon who came to the States to find his parents that he never met, Taylor, an strict Air Force pilot who went missing due to a plane about to clash but was saved by the Animarium, Max, an playful and goofy aspiring Bowler, Danny, a Strong but yet kind man with a passion for Flowers, and Alyssa, a caring and kind girl who is attending College. The five were chosen as the Rangers with Cole being the Red Lion Ranger, Taylor the Yellow Eagle Ranger, Max the Blue Shark Ranger, Danny the Black Bison Ranger, and Alyssa the White Tiger Ranger, together as Rangers, they helped take down Master Org and his entire army once and for all, but on their way they met another powerful Org, a wolf-like Duke Org named Zen Aku, who strangely have everything the Rangers have especially Zords, and even have a Heart, which all of our heroes by then knows that Orgs do not have a heart, but eventually they look into his background and learns that he use to be one of the original Wild Force Rangers named Merrick, but is under a curse, which means there supposed to be six Rangers, not five. Eventually our five heroes helps broke the Curse and finally met Merrick and welcomed him as a new member of the team. Merrick, however, tends to refuse but upon receiving his morpher back after all of those years being trapped in the Zen Aku's curse, becoming the "Lunar Wolf Ranger", he comes to help the Rangers at everytime there is a Org in town, and with six Rangers now, they all tries there hardest at stopping Master Org's biggest plan of World Domination.

Wild Force was a fun and interesting Season, interesting with some of the Characters and bunch of the Episodes. I'm going to begin talking about the Characters with Cole, a very interesting character as his arc is fascinating with searching his parents only to eventually find-out they were actually murdered in cold blood by no other than Master Org, who actually had an connection with his parents, a very somewhat disturbing one which I shall not get into due to this being Spoiler-free. Cole had a great personality of caring for others and a kind relationship with Animals as equal to that of Humans, the interesting nature of Cole that he like the Season version of Andros from "In Space" as due to him being someone who grown-up in the Amazon Jungle, knows nothing about what people do in a country like the United States, which makes him and Andros great characters as they're both learning characters which means they try their best to understand what certain things they never grown-up knowing, with Andros knowing nothing what they do on Earth due to him being a Alien, and Cole knowing nothing what they do in a first-world Country. Taylor was fascinating as she seems to be her own leader as after-all she is the first modern Ranger of the team, and had a mixed relationship with Cole with him being actually chosen by Princess Shayla as the Leader and seen certain parts of Leadership different then that of Taylor which leads to her being quite Jealous of him, a-lot like Eric and Wes which I'll get to that actually later-on in the review, but anyways Taylor eventually would accepts Cole as a Leader and renounced her original views on him. Max and Danny were two great characters, I'm putting them together as they are both common characters as they are the comic reliefs of the Season, and it no surprise that they're best friends. Max's comic moments is always him being the Kid of the group due to his playful attitude. Danny's comic moments are when he with Max and Alyssa just comes up quite hilarious. Max and Danny's motto is always the three words "Never Gives Up!" which is the season's theme, it all about Teamwork which is what Cole believes in when it coming to be a leader of a group. Alyssa wasn't much of a interesting character, just a college girl, that all she is to me. Merrick now is a-bit of a less interesting character as well, he just comes up being a watered-down version of Eric from Time Force, as he also an Reluctant team-member, but his evil counterpart, Zen Aku, is something I'll definitely get into. Before I can get to Aku as now I'm talking about the villains of the season, I think it'll makes sense to talk about the main one first, Master Org. He was a pretty creepy character, plus with a dark origin story which summed up more greatness to this guy, but like I said already, I won't get into the character's background, you have to check that out for yourself. After the episode we discovered who Master Org was and got beaten by Cole who destroyed his Org half, a new Master came around named "Mandilok" who is just a god-awful villain who I literally didn't care for and his episodes that just shows how much this character dreads I'll get to when I speak about the episodes, but when Master Orgs returns in 10 Episodes later, was awesome, especially how he went from being what he originally was which is being a Human to an actual Org, which shocks everyone, and eventually destroys the ever-so-worthless Mandilok, just epic. Zen Aku, his story arc is what makes up the best of the season, with the character of Zen Aku just an interesting awesome character, with stealing all of the Rangers' zords and having his own Megazord just like the Rangers just makes him an awesome villain, but yet let makes him and his arc more interesting is that he knows he not a full org as he does feels for others and even he actually destroys an Org which is a broken rule, he knows there something wrong, and him searching for his memories was nice to see, and with the Rangers being a-bit confused of discovering what Zen Aku been doing makes them feel something different about him which led to them to ultimately learns the truth about him. The other good episodes beside the 7-part long Zen Aku arc, are the crossovers in this season which are "Reinforcements from the Future" and "Forever Red". Reinforcements from the Future was the Time Force crossover which I got to say, is one of the best crossovers that this entire show ever presented, only second to "To the Tenth Power" from "Lost Galaxy", the Relationships in this particular crossover with our heroes from Time Force and that from Wild Force are fun to watch, especially that with Taylor and Eric which is something I said I was going to get into and here I am, their relationship was nice as it presented as a "Love-hate" one with Taylor being strict like always with Eric who in the beginning of the episode gives her a Speeding ticket and once him and Wes were fighting as Rangers against the Mut-Orgs who are the main antagonists of the crossover, and once the Wild Force Rangers came along for help and discovered who they are, Taylor recognizes Eric from earlier and hate it as he didn't seems to appreciate their back-up, that what makes these characters worked-out with together with them both despising others because of what they are with Personalities with Eric always being reluctant to fully joined the Time Force Team and Taylor always disliking the others with their beliefs of Friendship, especially Cole. As I promised from my Time Force review, I would continued talking about Ransik's story and now I am with this crossover, how he portray in this was once again done well by Action legend, Vernon Wells, and his story's continuation in this episode was perfect as he decide to fully renounced his evil ways and joined the Rangers' in their mission of stopping the Mut-Orgs, whose Ransik have a connection with about how he got his powers, and how his story ended was just amazing, the best way of ending a Sympathetic who they cleverly made him turned into a good guy. "Forever Red" is no doubt one of the most coolest episode in the entire series, it a shame they didn't bothered making it a Two-parter, but the episode contains all of the Red Rangers shown in the previous seasons along with Cole is just an awesome thing to watch and the episode is a-lot of fun seeing all of these Red Rangers even Cole. Other episodes in this season are good in their own ways, especially the first three which I absoultey loved. However the Episodes I can complain about are the episodes with the little kid Kite, just a terrible character and a stupid development, really, a kid who loves Kites and is named Kite, just dumb, and these were the Episodes that Mandilok was horribly memorable for. This was yet again, another season with a great Finale, "The End of the Power Rangers", just awesome with the most powerful appearance of Master Org or I should say, more badass then ever, and the Rangers' final fight scene which was set in the rain was just amazing, definitely in my top 5 favorite finales, just like this series being in my top 5 favorite seasons.

Over-all this Season was nearly great, it just doesn't have the vibe that Time Force with being a-lot serious, but still I do recommend this season to anyone who haven't see this season of Power Rangers or have but only a few episodes.

My All-time Favorite Power Rangers' Season!
8 June 2018
This Season, man. Where to start?, this is literally, no lie, my favorite Power Rangers' Season, everything about it, favorite Red Ranger, favorite Female Ranger, favorite Villains, damn good Episodes, and over-all a very great Season. Let get into the Plot shall we.

In the year 3000, the world is filled with a whole different race than Humans known as "Mutants", which are often discriminated by Humans and are themselves Criminals/Terrorists in a single city with a Top crime Organization which is run by the most Strongest and Dangerous of them all, Ransik (Vernon Wells). Ransik attempts to both wiped-out Humanity and take over the World with all other Mutants but continuously failed because of the advanced Police System known as "Time Force", eventually Ransik had an Idea which was to use some Technology that can have him Time Traveled, eventually him, his Daughter Nadira, and a Cyborg named Frax, broke into a Prison filled with ton of other Mutants, in which the first Ranger of Time Force, Alex, arrived to stop them but was only then brutally beaten by Ransik, and then Ransik and his small gang succeed in Time Traveling by going back to the year 2001. Alex's fiancee and fellow Time Force Officer Jen, felt vengeful over Alex's dreadful Defeat which lead to her believing he wouldn't make it through his wounds, she and her fellow comrades, Lucas, Katie, and Trip, decide to followed Ransik and his crew back in time with them. As they all made it, they brought Morphers, including Alex's as they have to someone else that matched Alex's DNA, eventually they would come upon a young man who looks just like Alex and is no surprise he his Ancestor, a well-known Wealthy but kind-hearten individual by the name "Wesley Collins", they asked him to Joined and even told him their story, but he responses to it as Non-nonsensical, but eventually after discovering its true with Ransik and his Army beginning to attack the City, he reconsidered joining them and became the Red Ranger, with Jen being pink, Lucas being Blue, Katie being Yellow, and Trip being Green. As their mission of stopping Ransik and his own gang of Mutants progress, more problems occurred. Wes' former classmate and member of his corrupt businessman of a Father's new project "the Silver Guardians" (which are an advanced Police force to help take down the Mutants), Eric, who always was jealous of Wes being the one who have everything such as Money and Friends and spend less time working, as Eric was the opposite of that, but after finding out Wes' secret as well the same goes with his father, he searches for his own Powers and soon comes upon the Quantum Morpher and became the Quantum Ranger and helps the Guardians takes down Ransik and his gang as their new leader, but at times have a mixed relationship with both Wes and the other Rangers as always preferring solo. Soon all six Rangers sorta got along, and made it their way to stop their Baddies.

This season's first strength of Success is it's Characters, mainly Wes, Jen, and Eric, as well the two Villains Ransik and Frax. Wes was such a great character, as he shows such good relationships with Jen and Eric, as well his father, who originally wanted him to be a successful Businessman, running his main Company, Bio-Labs, but then rejects it and goes what he call his own Destiny, and Destiny is exactly what this particular season centers around. Wes' relationship with his Father progresses great in this season as the reason Wes turned against what was his Father's future, not his, because what Wes learns that all he truly cares about is Money, not others' lives, which is Wes' purpose obviously as a Ranger, which when after his Father learns what he didn't told him before (Being a Ranger), he requests him to be the new Leader of the Guardians as if saving the City is what he truly wants to do, but Wes obviously refuses as the Guardians as he knows are for Profit, unlike the Rangers, and it took for a while for him to Realize that his Destiny as a Ranger is the best thing he could ever do and soon admitted that to Wes. Wes' lecturing of finding his own Destiny is something I found quite impressive about his character, as he told this to Alex, who turned-out wasn't dead after-all and came back as a Leader and told that his supposed Destiny is working at Bio-Labs, which of-course he have the rights for his own Destiny and once coming back for his friends and bagged for his return as a Leader as it turned out Alex is nothing more than a Strict jerk of a Leader, he literally taught him the whole Destiny thing and soon Alex felt like he was wrong the whole time. Jen's character is what I found unique out of them all, as she a female leader, which is quite rare, and she got a quite interesting Relationship with Wes, it began with her being quite Strict to him as well the other Rangers, just like Alex who influenced her, but after Alex's arrival and Wes' lecturing to him, she developed more of a crush on Wes who beforehand, been having a crush on her, and wasn't fully reveal she have feelings for him until the Finale in which she and her friends (Except Wes) travel back to the year 3000, and learns about Wes' solo mission of saving the World from Ransik, and learns he succeeded but have died, this made Jen feel really guilty that she leaves someone she loves dearly and soon rejects Alex's proposal to her so she could motivate him to let them traveled back and prevent Wes' supposed death. Jen was a likable character all the way, and probably one of the most prettiest female Rangers ever, lol. Eric was an excellent interesting character, such a great development, started out as pretty much a Loser compared to Wes who ain't from a wealthy family and have to work so he can earned himself some goods, but still jealous over Wes' being the opposite as he already had all the money and barely have to do anything, but when discovering the Quantum morpher, his world was finally going to turned around by becoming quite an fascinating Ranger and more of a good developing story, as Eric by this time is fueled with Power which is something he always wanted but it didn't took him too long to realize that being a Ranger is not about Power but is saving the world from Evil, plus his relationship was also interesting to watch as Wes despite being from a rich background, does have feelings and wants to befriend Eric, but Eric being from an Unsuccessful background and therefore believes they don't fit, but by the finale in which Wes give Eric his speech that like what he said to Alex previously, changes Eric's views completely and he finally decides to fight along his side entirely. The villains in this season are quite sympathetic, especially Frax whose background and his final appearances were just sad to watch, as he used to be a kind and caring Human scientist who saves Ransik from a disease of that of another Mutant known as "Venomark" but Ransik, who beforehand became quite Selfish, shuns the Scientist's offer of kindness and destroy his entire Lab and leaving him there for dead, but as the Scientist is about to died, he uses his knowledge of Robotic technology to transformed into a Cyborg who was eventually be known as "Frax", and from then on Frax was shown to be a Cold-hearten and Narcissistic monster who felt vengeful over Ransik for destroying his original career, but by the finale in which Frax was captured by Ransik, long after revealing to him who he is, Ransik's changed daughter Nadira who knows about Frax's former self asked him about the rivalry between Humans and Mutants and how to stop it but carelessly reveals it impossible but after Nadira stated his former Identity, Frax then had a change of heart and had his former kind personality back and told Nadira that she actually can stops the Hatred Mutants have on Humans but was then reprogrammed before she can even have a change to learn more, this is what makes Frax's story arc quite depressing to watch as he was going back to his old self but lost it. Ransik on the other hand have a-bit of Sympathetic part of his story, in a story he reveal to Wes about what motivate him to hate on Humanity is that he part of a Chemical Accident just like all the other Mutants and was shunned by everyone around him based on his appearance, but soon became colder and colder with his Heart that he begun his career as a notorious Crimelord from the Future. Through-out the Series, we see Ransik as selfish as always but by the finale in which he finally learns by his now-good Daughter that Humans aren't all bad like he thought they were and soon surrendered, which lead to his story to continued in "Wild Force", which I won't get into until that review, and a interesting note, Ransik was the only Villain to not to be defeated in the history of the entire show, how amazing is that. Vernon Wells, who is an actor I recognizes well from "Mad Max 2" and "Commando", plays the character Ransik perfectly, showing how cruel he can be in episodes-after-episodes until the Finale, and his relationship with Frax was good as started out as a loose alliance to a great rivalry upon Ransik learning about Frax's past. His Loyalty to his daughter Nadira was at times amusing but shows the best amount of development he have in a Relationship beside Frax, and this was important as he hurts his Daughter in the finale, all because of his evil self, and this being a main reason of why he regrets his past actions. A-lot of Episodes from the premiere up to the Finale are just great, with "Force From the Future" being a good way to kicked-off a season and "End of Time" being what I think is second to "Countdown to Destruction" as one of the best Finales that this show delivers.

Over-all, if you never seen this series and even if you are a Power Rangers fan, which by-a-way, Shamed on you, totally check this one out, it just a fun, Interesting, Enjoyable, and Epic season.

Our Friend, Martin (1999 Video)
3/10
HOW IS THIS A EDUCATIONAL FILM?! An insult towards History!
20 January 2018
"Our Friend, Martian" is a film that is according to my research, is quite shown is a-lot of Elementary Schools, now me, I never seen this when I was in Elementary, but I do still have a nostalgic memory of seeing this film's trailer in one of the previews of Dr. Doodle with Eddie Murphy (On the film's VHS tape), and from the trailer, it looks interesting, but unfortunately I never got around seeing this, until just this pass weekend, it was just so happened to the weekend of MLK's birthday. I got to admit, this movie was not at all a great movie. Now I know I shouldn't done this review on MLK day, but of-course I didn't, but that still would not stop me from reviewing this cheese fest.

Basically the story is that a African-American Middle Schooler named Miles, is failing his History Class, and his teacher, Ms. Clark, wants him to try to keep his grade up or else he will have to repeat a grade because of her class, so to do that, Miles and his classmates, especially his Caucasian friend Randy and a bully named Kyle, and a sassy but yet intelligent Hispanic girl named Maria, went on a trip to the childhood home of Martin Luther King in their city of Atlanta, where Miles, Randy, Kyle, and Maria were allowed inside of King's bedroom by the owner of the Museum (Who is voiced by Whoopi Goldberg) where then they both time-travel through-out King's life to explored it and learned how he became famous for what he done with African-Americans, as-well the struggles he went through which lead to him doing what so. Sounds like a good film, but unfortunately the downfall is how this is all shown.

Firstly I want to talked about the Characters, now Miles kinda comes-up like a idiot in this movie, which is no wonder why he is failing a class, in one notorious part of the movie is when the kids decide to bring young Martin into their present, but when they do so, only Miles is back along with Martin. Randy, Kyle, and Maria are all there too, but completely different, now Randy and Kyle are two typical Racists who don't even know Miles because he's black and Maria is like a typical poor Hispanic Citizen who doesn't know how to speak English or even understand it. This is all because they created a Alternate Timeline in which King's Civil Rights movements never happens, and that there still the racial rules going on in the South such as Whites and Blacks have to go to separate schools that Blacks have to walk, and plus other stuff like the water fountain rule, and etc. now I don't really like this alternate timeline at all, mainly because is that there certain things that have nothing to do with Martin Luther King, like there child labor, what? How in the world Child Labor have anything to do with Martin Luther King, that was something that was taken care of in the 1910s, hey before King was even born or when the racial laws were happening in the south, and back to the whole fact of Maria not able to speak English and is treated poorly because of her Ethnicity all because of Martin Luther King work never happens, when did King ever do something to the Hispanics, yeah it is proven he wants to have everyone of different color joining into one, but that pretty much because how the African-Americans were being treated in the South, not the Hispanics, that more of Cesar Chavez's job, like didn't he even exists in this timeline either, I don't think so, it only Martin that wasn't around, and the same goes with other civil rights' leaders like where Malcolm X, would he or anyone else in general would've done anything about this instead of Martin, it literally makes zero sense, and this is why I considered this film a-bit of an insult towards history because there just screw it all up with having stuff in this alternate timeline that really ain't anything Martin Luther King would do about it, but instead someone else like Cesar Chavez or Malcolm X, but instead they just to forget about them, and want to be more focusing on Martin here which technically they're just insulting History, along with Child Labor. Another thing, Sexism often occurs because of Martin being gone, yes probably other issue to do with Sociology beside Racism is occuring because of Martin's absent, I guess other issues such as Homophobia still occurs, that might mean Harvey Milk is absent for no good reason. Now sorry I was complaining about how just terrible they did with the Alternate reality, I probably want to go back talking about how ignorant Miles is with this, he literally does not know what going on, like he doesn't realizes right away he and his friends along with Martin created an Alternate Timeline, how more stupid you can even get, that just makes this character more unlikable and just forgettable. Randy, seems like a joke as he's like a skateboarder with a southern Accent, which kinda confuses me because he only white character who is from the South that talks like that, not Kyle nor Ms. Clark, now Kyle is another character who is basically just a weak character, especially a bully character, it just seems like he really a innocent kid who is often get disrespect by the others, which doesn't makes him looks more of a bully, and when he's racist in the alternate timeline, he seems kinda less racist to be honest. Now Maria, I literally can't get started with this ungrateful brat. I literally hates this character, how her smartness is portrayed is ruined by she treats Miles, Randy, and especially Kyle. In this film, sorta shows us there's going to be bad happening to her, but unfortunately we didn't got that, if you even count the pointless "Can't speak English" scene.

So over-all this movie is just a big slob of a mess, just offend the knowledges of anyone who knows about History. I still don't get how there Elementary schools that shows this film, which like 50% wrong about History and the Civil Rights movements of the 50s and 60s, and I can only imagined how anyone who sees this movie as a kid in Elementary School, and literally thoughts this is what Martin Luther King, prepared to be wrong later in life. There some positive stuff I can say like the story I kinda like, and the whole feel of the 90s I thought that was good too, and it was a-bit interesting going through King's life, except for the Civil Rights March, where they met a young Ms. Clark, which doesn't makes sense, because that was the 60s and this is mainly set in 1999, so how a woman in her 40s and would've been in her 20s back then, like just Calculate it. So that basically it, if you want to see a Martin Luther King movie, I guess this is it, but if you're a history person, I would say you stay away from this.

Critters (1986)
8/10
A fun classic B-Movie from the 80s, a must see!
16 December 2017
Boy, Critters. Where do I began with this film.

The story is pretty much a bunch of Carnivore, furry Hedgehog/Porcupine mixed extraterrestrial Creatures called Crites or Critters have escaped from their outer space prison, and made it their way to the other side of the Galaxy to land on the life planet "Earth" to search for food, while a couple Bounty Hunters are sent to go find them and exterminate them. Meanwhile, at the location of a farm outside of a small Kansas Town, the family is then under attack by the Man-eating Critters as it where they landed on, and tries anyways to protect themselves and attempts to killed every single one of these vicious freaks. This movie have a good cast of people, the most notable one being Scott Grimes, who portray the Red-headed kid in the film, who you may recognize being one of Seth MacFarlane buddies as he cast in several of his work such as "Family Guy" and "American Dad", as well MacFarlane most recent live-action show "The Orville". My favorite characters are Grimes' Character, the Bounty Hunters, and a character named Charlie, who is pretty much a main character within the whole film series. Grimes' character was sorta entertaining to watch, he was quite funny and very serious at times. Charlie was good in this too, as his personality was just great being pretty much the Town's Drunk, and for the most time Loser, as he doesn't have any friends except for Grimes, whose their Relationship in this film was sorta nice to see, just a classic Buddy relationship, and his belief in the Extraterrestrial makes his character more outstanding. The Bounty Hunters were like the second highlights of the film, they were so cool to see, and let don't forget the awesome transformation scene, like wow, that shows the special effects that was used for this were so incredible and this was before CGI. The effects on the Critters were good too, which are another thing I should talk about as well, the Critters, they were feisty in this one, like how they comes after these family members is very terrific and we feel how horrifying this family was in this one. They were slightly a-bit funny to watch in this as well, like their Interactions is sorta interesting, but really it not that much to be honest. Speaking of Interactions, I shall one of the two complaints this film delivers, one is that the Critters didn't have that much of Interactions with the Bounty Hunters, which is something I never really liked, instead through-out the whole until close by the end, the Bounty Hunters spend their time searching through-out the Town trying to find the Critters, now it funny of them getting into others' businesses, really were just trying to find who their looking for, but I just wished they added a few more scenes of them with the Critters. The other complaint is that the death rate is very VERY low, there only like two people killed in this one, which is actually consequentially the total amount of deaths in these films (Only by the Critters anyways), except for Critters 2. That not really why I have a problem with however, it just that only one death was shown on-screen and the other one happened underneath a car, which come on, really. But those doesn't boiled this film down exactly, it stills an entertaining piece of art with some great horror going on.

Anyways, if you want to see a horror film with a classic B-Movie feel to it, and if you loved Gremlins (Which this film is competing with), you'll definitely loves this one.

McGee and Me! (1989–1992)
5/10
Typical cheesy Christian show, but at least watchable
1 December 2017
Now before I can go on with this review of the show, I wanna talk a-little about Christian Media. I'm not a freak of Christian freak, I'm actually a Atheist, despite my Family's Roman Catholic and Luthern background, but I do found all of this Christian Media crap quite interesting so. I do listened to Christian Music, not for the fact of being Christian-like but being just music to have fun listening to, and I always found it entertaining, and keep it in mind I mainly listened to Christian Rock, which is the general music genre I enjoyed listening to, which is why I would even listens to that. Christian movies I haven't gotten around seeing that many, the only one I have saw is a film called "To Save a Life" which I will attempt to make a review of in the future, well maybe. Anyways, Christian shows I only saw are VeggieTales and this show, now I would come upon this show was long ago back when I was at a Daycare, that was quite Christian, and they let us watches a few VHS tapes of this show, one being the most popular episode "Not-So-Great Escape!" and some other episode called "Skate Expectations" where Nick made a contest challenge with the show's bully Derrick. Anyways, now I went through a-little bit of mine history with Christian Media, let goes onto the review starting with the plot.

The usual plot is that a kid named Nick who lives with his overly religious parents and equally religious Grandmother and two sisters and go through every episode with his magical friend who he created with the help of God, McGee, learning certain problems and advantages that usually come across peoples' lives such as Lying, Elders, Fear, Speaking up, Bullying, Honoring your Parents, Making Right Choices, Cheating, Practice, Friendship, Standing up for others, Peer Pressure, Knowing who your true friends are, and even Child Abuse.

This show is sorta in-between with how I viewed it. Now being a guy who searches a-lot of Christian in general, seriously I can actually nailed every rule of being whatever in the Christian spectrum despite calming to be an Atheist, but back to what I'm saying, I think this show's purpose obviously is to show not just Nick to learn but also Children who are watching the show, and that is in-fact a good point there, I really do appreciate it, but the big issue is how each episode is shown, like the purpose I already explained is good, and the stories which I'm going to bring-up right now are amazing to read, especially the Xmas special which I think is probably the second well-known one in the whole show, is a good realistic plot of having a typical kid (Derrick) being abused by both his alcoholic father and his friend, which is why he the jerk he is to everyone, and the episode sound more touching as this was not the only thing we audience seen in the episode about the character's story and learns why he enjoyed doing what he, but also about him becoming a more peaceful person, a Christian, as within the episode, he is part of the school's performing take of the "Nativity of Jesus" along with Nick and his best friend Louis, which changes him. A good-sounding story but where its comes down is how depressing and cheesy it is, now Cheesiness is common in all of these episodes but depressing is not, and as this episode as it was, it's was also uncomfortable watching some of the scenes, especially where Derrick fights his bully of a friend, in order to protect Nick from being killed from him, and they played Christmas music in the background, I just find this a-bit not to watchable, it not disturbing exactly, it just a-bit depressing that all. Talking about how sloppy these certain episodes which makes me feel down about the show, I want to talk about the worst episode, the "Not-So-Great Escape" which I found totally sloppy, I would probably saved of what I want to talk about the episode in maybe a review of it, because I have so much to say, as it so bad, I would maybe like to talk about however the awkward cringy with Nick and Louis reenacting the stupid commercial of the horror film they want to see, it's my god, all I'm just going to say is I rather watch a person having a Seizure than watching that, my god, and if you ever seen the episode, probably know what I'm talking about, man. Over-all beside that, the episode is generally bad by having nonsensical lines and acting, its awarded of being the worst episode. Beside that, the characters, would've been good if they have some better script, the general script of the show is quite mediocre and that basically all I'm going to say about them.

Over-all the show maybe watchable, it cheesy yes it really is, but it B-Movie entertainment, and this is basically what you except of a Christian show. If you're a Christian or someone who is obsessed with Christian Media or Christianity, I would maybe recommend this, everybody else, if your a B-Movie watcher, like have no problem going through something cheesy, check this out if you want, as if everyone else, just stay away.

My favorite Batman Film ever, HANDS DOWN!!!
24 November 2017
Now it time to get to the best one in the whole series of the "Batman" films. The one that is actually considered as their favorite by approximately half of the Batman's fans. THE DARK KNIGHT!!!!

Basically I shouldn't talk about this film's story as tons of people who saw this and if not, one where in the world when this movie was released, and two, shamed on you. But anyways for the sake of those who didn't see this, I'll give this film's plot away without any spoilers and the fast as possible. Basically a new villain in Gotham who goes by the name, Joker, is committing horrific Anarchist-like terrorism though-out the city, and wants to kills the city's two heroes who are known as Knights, Crime-fighter/Detective Batman who is the Dark Knight and District Attorney Harvey Dent who is the White Knight, so he can Gotham into burning dust. Joker nearly succeeds his way of killing Dent by kidnapping him and placing him in a building with plenty of time Bombs, but Dent have succeed in escaping but as he left the building and the Explosives went-off and burning half of his face, and soon turns him into a vengeful psychopath by the name of Two-Face. Batman, who in the end, is the only one who can possibly saved the day, is responsible to stop this chaos once and for all.

The Dark Knight have a moderately good cast of Characters, Christian Bale who reprises his role here, is a-little more emotional with what he's doing, with trying to bring the Joker down before he can even kills him. Him being Batman, there still the problem of him growling, like yes it stills annoying but luckily is overshadowed by the positive things to say about it such as his interactions with the Joker, which are hands down the best scenes in the whole film, and should speaks to themselves. Commissioner Gordon who's role is also reprized by Gary Oldman, is good here too, actually I thought he's a-little better than how he was in Batman Begins. His relationship with Harvey Dent is probably a good highlight of the film, as it leads to the Climax. Speaking of Harvey Dent, let talks about him for a-little bit shall we. Dent here was well portrayed by Aaron Eckhart and is very emotional powerful. In this movie, he is Rachel's new Boyfriend and is very devout to her and was shown quite caring with her especially at the scene where Rachel was as-well by Joker and is placed in another building with Time Bombs and Harvey was on a phone with her that Joker left in there for them, for their last Goodbyes. It was honestly a very touching scene to see that they have had a good relationship and seriously didn't want it to have it comes to an tragic end. When he became Two-Face it's a bit of a let-down, now it is a Improvement to the Two-Face from Batman Forever, like thanks Nolan for doing this at least, but the problem is that he was shown later in this movie and we didn't many scenes with Echart as Two-Face like he did as Dent, which is a shame because he also did a fantastic job as Two-Face as he was menacing. Rachel, who is not reprized here and the only one that is, is not much to talk about here, but she sure have a somewhat good relationship with Bruce still, which I don't think would be necessary to bring-up, but whatever. Other characters like Alfred and Lucius Fox are again good to watch and like Bruce Wayne/Batman and Gordon, are also reprized here, which is again neat to see. Now I saved this one for last, and is worth to be saved to talked about later, and that is no other than the Joker, who is played by Heath Ledger, who is still well missed in Cinema this day. The Joker is in no lie, steals the entire film, his Anarchist, Psychopathic, and Schizophrenic Personality (Which is what Ledger considered him as) is just mind-blowing to watch. His script is what makes this movie so remembered with his lines in it which I even need to bring-up because everyone knows what they are, such as "Why so Serious?" or "HIT ME?" or "Here we go", these lines are just great to watch, and Ledger really did do a good job and it makes sense this would be his last role, because hey like they always, "Saved the best for last".

Now this movie hardly have any complaints but maybe a couple such as Scarecrow was in this film, again his role was Reprized, but yet again he was only shown for about limited amount of minutes, and I know how that is if you read my Batman Begins' review, and the second is being the ending for two reasons, the first reason is what a-lot of people have with this movie, not going to give it away although most likely everyone should've saw this movie by now, but it's just not my Cup of tea as I should refer it to as. The second reason is that there was a rumor that the Joker originally was going to died in this movie, but because of Heath Ledger's death, but they have to the whole ending, now if that was true, it was makes ton of sense of why the Joker was never seen in these movies again, but those are just minor Complaints and I honestly still likes this movie. It well action-packed, so realistic it's incredible to see how these filmmakers puts so much effort in making this, it's amazing.

This movie like I said already, all of you should've saw by now, if not, so get-up now and check it out and see how you think of it, and hopes you'll praised it as much as I do.

Saw III (2006)
7/10
Probably the last good sequel
30 October 2017
Saw III, here we go, this is in my opinion the last good film in the Saw Franchise, and to me is my second favorite in the series.

Basically John Kramer, the original Jigsaw Killer, is about to meet his fate from his Brain Tumor's issue, and Amanda Young, his only assistant must search for help to cured his severe problem, so she kidnaps an Doctor who was originally an assistant of Kramer's ex-doctor, to figured-out an way to end it. Meanwhile, an new victim, who lost his son from an DUI Incident a few years prior, and ever since then felt vengeful towards his killer, must plays Jigsaw's game to shows him that Forgiveness exists, by coming upon a few more Victims in traps who are in any way connected to his Son's death, and it his choice of letting them live or Die because of what they do with his personal incident.

The characters in this movie, I got to admit is a-bit better than some of the ones in Saw II. John Kramer and Amanda Young are still interesting to watch, the Doctor is a-bit forgettable however, but her relationship with Amanda was kinda nice to see. The Vengeful Father, was in my opinion, a very interesting character, just having someone who is really vengeful about someone who he seems to loves a-lot is great to see and his search for he thinking will be his Son's killer during the game Jigsaw have him participate in was enjoyable like a snack. The traps in this movie are again good, and once again I have a favorite, this time is The Rack, which was pretty intense of a scene, probably remained my second favorite trap in the whole series along-side the Amanda Young's trap from the first one. Now I have said positive things about this film, that does not means there aren't any negative things to say, there is unfortunately. Firstly is the Kristy's trap (Kristy by-a-way is a character from the previous film who is a former partner of the Juvie's father of an Corrupt Detective) which is shown to be unnecessary in this film as they never mentioned it the rest of the film, and they only continued it's story in the following one, it just seems like they just wants to show us a trap already but this is the third Installment and according to the first two films, we already know there going to be traps like that, so what the point? Secondly, this is what a-lot of people would kinda agree which is the ending, now a-lot people complains by saying it was all an mistake, but honestly it not really like that which I have an problem with, it just the craze it shows to people who watches that then make them confused about how there will be sequels in which this started the downhill of the series with the follow-up "Saw IV". Personally, I thought this would've been an good way to end the series because there obviously no other way to continued, but then they decide to do that anyways by releasing the ever god-awful fourth film.

Now I would recommend this if you only see the first Saw movie, if you didn't see Saw II, it really doesn't matters, because the whole twist they pull off with Amanda turning out she was an Assistant not an victim this time was pretty much almost spoiled by it's trailer. This movie, along with the first Saw film, are like the only ones I would probably sit around and watch again, I absolutely loves this one.

Saw II (2005)
6/10
Not good as the first, but not that bad of a first sequel
29 October 2017
Saw II, the first of the several sequels in the Saw's franchise. Is it any good as the original, well that would unfortunately be false, but does lives up to it's hope, well let find out.

Basically after the events of the previous film, the actual Jigsaw Killer have been revealed to the Authorities as former Factory Worker and dying patient John Kramer, and they track him down to his factory/home, but right before they even Apprehend him, Kramer reveals he have already kidnaps 8 more people, all of which are trapped inside of an unknown building, that seems to be an abandon apartment, and Kramer refuses to reveals the Address. One of the newly victims, is just so happened to be the lead Detective's Juvenile Delinquent of a Son, which soon worries him, and making this be more of a bigger business to him. Meanwhile, the 8 victims who are all different from each other based on their Criminal Records, have no choice but to make it out alive together or else the Nerve Agent that Jigsaw puts inside the Building will kills them, and the goal for them is to find the Antidotes they need for their Survival, and while on the way, they comes upon deadly traps based on the Occupations of these Criminally-behaved Victims.

This film is in-fact a good flick, but is different compared to it's predecessor. The use of Characters I will considered Mediocre, some of them such as the lead detective is a-bit of a Jerk but that the meaning of the character much like the doctor from the first film (Now by-a-way, if I sound like I'm bringing-up an Spoiler, well I'm not going to as I'm not trying to either, what you just read wouldn't be anymore as I say something bad to this character, but I'll not mentioned how, that you have to see for yourself), but some of the other characters like some of the victims now I kinda understand they should act like this because they're Bad people and all, but they kinda took the roles too far into making them another group of unlikable characters, with the exception however with the Lead Detective's son, Amanda Young (Who returns in this film from the previous one), the African-American Gangster, and Xavier, the Hispanic Drug Dealer. The son of the Lead Detective was I would say an Emotional character, somewhat related to some, and Amanda was nice to see in this, especially as a main character now. The gangster was a-bit emotional to see too, I loved the scene between him and Xavier, just a very powerful speech, and speaking of which, Xavier was great to see as an secondary Antagonist, he was quite menacing to watch by the end of the film so. One last of the Victims, I want to bring-up so is an Pyromaniac named Obi. He didn't do that much in this movie so, only have one scene, and than boom, he finished, but he was a-bit of a cool character to see, quite quiet which builds him up here, and I wished he was shown a-bit more, like I wished they gives a-bit more of a Personality. The one last character I bring up in general, is no other than Jigsaw himself. It was neat to see him as a main character this time too, and Tobin Bell who did a fantastic job like always, just playing a sick, dying old man. The traps are well-done in this one, my favorite when one of the main victims in this movie, opens a door that he not supposed to open because there's a gun that shoots him through the eye, just brutal. There is one complaint I do have however beside some of the characters, which is pretty much the unrealistic use of Nerve Agent, now Nerve Agent was also what Jigsaw gives to one of his victims in the first movie too, which I didn't brought up in my review of that one because I didn't think it was unnecessary, but I'm bringing it up now because it's a big part of this film, just how come through-out the film, it feels these people are in their for 2-3 hours, they should've dies already because of the poisoning. But oh-well, this did sorta overshadowed by what we seen in this film.

So over-all Saw II is in my opinion is a fine sequel, just not the best in the series, but it is worth to watched.

Saw (2004)
8/10
One of the best Horror Movies of the 21th century!
24 October 2017
Man, this movie. Now I see a-lot of Horror Movies in my time but never that brutally sick and twisted like this one.

Basically a new serial killer is in town, but is unique than any others as he set traps for his victims, in which ain't like any other as they usually uses a weapon like a knife or a gun. The killer was dubbed as "Jigsaw" as according to the video tapes he left behind with a dummy he voiced in order to hide his identity, may have a connection to these people he kills because he seemly knows a-lot about them as they goes from Drug Addicts to Pathological Liars to Those who attempted Suicide, and his games that he have them plays are kinda like puzzles, and if they figured it out, not only their allowed to make it out alive (Which unfortunately is a rare chance), but also learns about their mistakes in life and shelled changed their ways of living. Meanwhile, a Ruthless Doctor is suspected to this "Jigsaw" individual because his applys was found at one of the crime scenes. But it turned out he Innocent like he proved to be, as he was soon kidnapped by the killer himself to become another of his victims and plays another of his deadly games, and if he fails, his family shall be killed, alongside with him is another individual who is also kidnapped and his purpose is somehow connected to the doctor's case, and the Doctor have to killed him to shows his realization of his Cruelty especially what he learns about him.

The movie got ton of great acting in it, I absolutely loves the interaction between both the doctor and the other person in the room which is primarily of the film takes placed in, it started kinda funny at the beginning, and gets really twisted to watch as it drags. The doctor was good as the actor did good playing such a jerk of a doctor who deserves to play the game by Jigsaw especially what Jigsaw turned-out to be in the end, with his Identity is revealed at the end. As it makes total sense for his abduction to exist not because he was accused of his killings but because he's quite cruel at his job. The other individual was at times amusing to watch, such loves his sarcastic talk at the beginning of the film as he answering the Doctor's question of his identity, just wow. Danny Glover plays in this film as a detective who is working on the Jigsaw's case, he was alright here not much to say about him, except for two scenes in which are good-old Cop actions my favorite is close by the end of the movie in which he was fighting against who thought is the actual killer.

The trap scenes are brutal to watch especially the infamous Amanda Young's scene in which quite shocking to see with her digging though that one dude's body, just glory as it's gorgeous. One last thing to say about this movie is the ending which is like awesome, now I figured there would be a Twist after-all but still it nice to viewed, and the theme song is something I'll not forget, it awesome to hear, and I'm glad I have it on my Cellphone.

Over-all, I still don't think I could give this movie a score like 10, because I think this is not the best horror movie yet, but I give this movie a good score still like 8. Check this out if you want to see a movie that have good Brutalities and such interesting characters, or not if you're too sensitive to this type of movie, make your choice.

It (I) (2017)
8/10
An improvement to the original, just awesome!
9 October 2017
Oh my god this movie. This was an anticipated film of mine of this year, and I finally gotten around seeing it yesterday, and it was equally what my Hype was, this was just a interestingly fun horror flick, with some really creepy scenes and other things that make this movie so, superior.

Basically the plot is half of the original's story as it only focusing on the kids this time not the adults, but this is just the first film, there will be a second one, don't worry. So really ain't that much to say in which it just a group of kids whose lived in a small Maine town called Derry that have a history of missing children, who are actually killed by an unknown being that can turned into anything that would be feared of, mainly a clown named "Pennywise", and up for these kids, whose are being bothered by him and also threaten to be murdered, to destroyed once and for all.

This movie have some really good characters, quite faithful to the book, and I would like to nailed-down each one of them. Beginning with Bill, the one who Stutters, he was a emotional character in this one compared to his character in the original who was still interesting, but this portray was better. Beverly was great in this one as she was closed to what she was in the book, a redhead and a tomboy who struggles living with her abusive father, her father was great as he was quite creepy a little bit. The other characters like Ben, Richie, and Eddie were all decent characters. My favorite of the characters is the Bully Henry, who is like your typical bully, a complete psychopath. He was quite intensely insane, but there is one disappointment about him which is one of the few problems of this film, his last scene which I'm not going to give away but it kinda make it looks like how he would be in the Sequel, now in the old one I like it how they shows what all the Kids end-up being as Adults, including Henry, as he became Mentally Unstable like again your typical bully, and that the only positive thing to say about the adult characters in the original, and the last we see of him in this one is kinda have stretched your head. Now I want to saved this character last, and that is Pennywise, now Tim Curly still do a great job as him back in the original, but here the dude who plays him did it more better, as he's more creepy, especially the redoing of the first scene of him in the Kids' section, with Georgie was really well-done, just perfect. I also likes the redoing of the blood in the restroom scene, more creepy as its craw under my skin, for real. The special effects was well-done, and it got a-lot of gore, which all makes this an improvement to the original. There one other problem to bring-up so, the constant use of Jump-scares which is something common in these modern horror films, and I don't like it at all, and you guys should know why I wouldn't.

Over-all this movie is a great remake, just a good improvement, and I totally recommend it to you guys if you to see something that craws under your skin, and especially have a fear of Clowns and wants to challenged yourself.

It (1990)
5/10
First half is good, second half not the same, over-all a Mediocre film
9 October 2017
Just recently saw the new film adaptation of Stephan King's "It" but before I can write an review on that, I think it would be necessary to review this one first. The one that is pretty much overshadowed now by its remake's success, the mini-series from the 90s that gets a-lot of mixed reviews as years followed, even now with the new one being released, some say it was good, some say it bad, me however, I'm in between about the film, as I do got a-lot of credits to give this movie for, I do however, have a-lot of complaints about it.

Basically the plot is that in this small Maine called "Derry" have a history of missing children, one of which is the younger brother of one of our main characters, Bill Denbrough, Georgie who was proved to be dead, and soon the actual abductor/killer of these kids, who is a being that can turns into certain things that often feared children, especially a clown that is often turned into named "Pennywise", and then started to threaten Bill by revealing he's next, along-side other children such as a obese nerd Ben Hanscom, asthmatic Eddie Kaspbrak, Jewish Boy Scout Stanley Uris, loner Beverly Marsh, Comic Richie Tozier, and African-American Mike Hanlon, and soon these kids would come together and fight this unknown being and once they thought it was dead, they all later moved-out of the town as Adults to moved-on with Life, except for one who believes in a possibility of it's returning. Years later, strange things started happening again in which children are back disappearing which leads to a proved factor that it wasn't dead after-all and that these kids (Now Adults) must back together and fight it again, this time tries to really kill it.

The movie good stuff is from the kids' characters which lead to one of the bad things to mention about this movie with them as Adults, now each kid have a almost the exact good quality about them, being interesting to watch, and having such great scenes. Although I do have couple of complaints about this. One is the female lead, Beverly, now its not a issue of the fact she's ain't a redhead in this film like she was in both the book and the remake, but the downfall is that she not like her Tomboyish character shown in the book, which is a-bit of a downfall look at this. It more sense that she's a tomboy because she the only female character of the group of kids and she not portray as one, although her abusive father was shown in this film and their relationship was well-done I guess. The second complaint is this one scene with Eddie in which he encountered Pennywise in the shower room, now the problem with this is that the scene just ends, as it just went back to the current time, like what the hell, are we supposed to use our Imagination or what, like this was no excuse what-so-ever. Now the one character that really do the best out of all of these characters was Pennywise himself. Tim Curry who plays him, did a great job, now the newer one is more superior than this one, but still seeing his scenes in this film, in both the first half and the second are absolutely great and a-bit amusing to watch. The second is kinda like just a downhill of the film, with the adults just boring and a-bit uninteresting to watch, and despite we do have Curry there, he can't even saved the film. Now I'm not going to complain about the bare use of Gore, as this was a made-for-TV film, so I'm just going to let this slid. The scares in this film, looking at it now I still kinda see how its creepy, but I don't really feel scare about seeing this so, it would make sense as it just a made-for-TV movie.

Over-all this film was just mediocre, I kinda don't understand why they didn't even do the idea that the people behind the remake are doing by cutting it into two parts, one being the kids, and the other being the adults, all in theatrical, but oh-well. If you haven't see this film which is understandable, I suggest checking-out the first part, and as watching the second part just goes to where Pennywise is shown, now that what is worth seeing in that half.

The Irate Gamer (2007– )
5/10
This honestly doesn't seems to be bad as it's progress, but the original criticism of this show is still there
1 October 2017
The Irate Gamer, the most hated gamer there ever was (As now he done with his career surprisingly). The hate I sorta understand and somewhat agree with. The original episodes this guy made were like most people say, just flap-out ripoffs of AVGN (Angry Video Game Nerd) like his Back to the Future video and his Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video. Just stealing a-lot of AVGN's lines such as "Cowabunga piece of S**t" and "What a S**t load of f*ck", and most importantly, the AVGN's popular line, "What were they thinking", this is totally I will agree, is unnecessary, and I'll honestly agree, that he does not have the rights to violating steal lines from AVGN. The jokes that were made, did absolutely nothing for me, and another is that there are a-lot of errors to find in these episodes which I'm not going to go through, especially his most infamous one, "Super Mario Bros. 2", tons of errors in that one, which makes it appropriate to be his most popular. But however, these episodes (According to me) are watchable. The Actor/Director/Writer of this Show, Chris Bores, sure did do a-lot of effort in making these episodes, and I'm not talking about the uncreative Script/Jokes but the action which is both that and his detailing about certain things like Video Game Series, toy lines, and etc., are like the only positive things I could even say about these early episodes. I absolutely loved it when he talking about the confusion of being a "Goonies 2" game, despite there weren't a second Goonies' film, and the example of the earlier Donkey Kong's Games, which was kinda of a nice example to be honest, now this may be a ripoff of AVGN's "Chronically Confused" Video, but it not that unacceptable like the other ones I already mentioned, and yet his "Goonies 2" is probably one of the few best videos of the first season. By the second season, things kinda comes slowly to a change, in which something I'm going to give Bores some credits for, for being smart at this moment, as the Irate Gamer's characters seems to slowly becomes his own, not just a typical Knockoff. His "Predator" review is probably another favorite of mine, and somewhat his Contra videos, but however they're some complaints but I'm going to bring them up however. Now the use of other Characters in this show by now seems to go a bit of a change too, now the previous season didn't seems to have that much of interesting characters, such as Tony, who is pretty much a "S**t pickle" ripoff, but here we have characters, despite they seems to already be characters that seems to be done before, like a Skeleton who seems to be a crazed fan of the IG, and is a obvious Homosexual, and the IG's evil Twin (Yeah pretty common to used) but they're fun to watch however and Bores did a good job writing them, especially Satan, who have just good lines in this show. By Season 3 and beyond, the whole concept of being a AVGN's ripoff is now completely faded away, and this is where things gets so better. This is where Bores prove to those highly Devout, but yet mindless AVGN Fans that he's not a Idiot like they think he is, by referencing the AVGN's review of "Sliver Surfer" in his review of the same exact game by admitting he knows he already done it, now that is GENIUS. His "Kool Aid" review was good, I thought the Kool Aid was kinda funny to see honestly, and his "Aladdin" review was alright, except there are some errors (The same exact ones seen in his early Reviews), but yet it was enjoyable. I truly thought his "Mike Tyson's Punch-out" review was hilarious too, and yet another of mine favorite. It is quite surprising that Bores decide to end this well-conversational series, but yet it was a good idea however, not because it was considered a bad show but it was to just to shut the Haters up once and for all.

Overall, I'm going to get this show not a high score nor a low score, but a average score of about 5, if you seen a episode of this guy that was most likely just a ripoff of AVGN, I suggest you watched a later episode like during season 3-5, I'm sure you'll most likely get a different look on this character from any of those episodes.

Batman Begins (2005)
7/10
A good way to reboot a dead movie franchise!
26 September 2017
With the old batman movies, that were created by Tim Burton, long dead. A reboot came around the corner with this one, directed by one of the great British Directors, Christopher Nolan. This is probably one of the best superhero Origins movies out-there along-side the first Spider-man, it makes the character of Batman dark again, and did a good job with the story of the film.

The story is that Bruce Wayne (Played by Christian Bale), who's parents were shot and killed as a child, left Gotham for over 7 years since the beginning of his adulthood, he made it his way to the other side of the world, where he eventually met-up with Henri Ducard (Ra's Al Ghoul) (Played by Liam Neeson) to goes into the "League of Shadows", an martial arts Terrorist organization. After finishing his training, Wayne soon goes against the League and once he thought he wipe them out, he moved back to Gotham, to not just to continued his parents' successful wealth as Billionaires and Enterprises' owners, but to use his martial arts to go against the criminals of the city, as he blame all of them for killing his parents, as they were murdered by a Crook. He made his career of becoming the vigilante, Batman. As he getting into more of his crime-fighting, it turned-out that the League of Shadows are in Gotham City, alongside a associate, Scarecrow, hoping to bring it to an end, in which have to prevent it from happening.

The characters of this movie are great, Christopher Nolan is good as Bruce Wayne, with good emotions and powerful acting, but as Batman, some issues, most notably his growling voice, like okay I know Batman is supposed to be Batman, but this is unnecessary to hear. The costume is actually neat-looking so, most likely my favorite character. Good-old Liam Neeson played as this film who it turned-out to be Ra'Al Ghoul, the main villain of the film, he did a good job here playing such a fantastic villainous personality. The secondary Villain of the film, Scarecrow, I thought was awesome in this movie, especially when he first uses his fear Toxins to that Mob guy, it was quite horrifying, and they did an brilliant job. The only problem of the character so, is that he was quite somewhat of a minor Character, he had a few memorable scenes, like his encounters with Batman was enjoyable to watch, but it was all disappointing in the end with him joining with Ghoul's chaos in Gotham City, where he was only engaging for about 5 minutes and then was stopped not by Batman, but his love interest, Rachel. Both Alfred and Commissioner Golden was both well replaced by Michael Caine and Gary Oldman, both did well with who's there playing, especially with how they made Golden in this film, finally having him have a character in him, like seeing him in Action, showing Emotions, not at all a fat emotionless who can't even defend himself in any of the original films.

With this movie being quite powerful as its carried a realistic world, which I grew to like, with it being about Fear, and having a realistic serious issue like Terrorism as related to that topic, just genius. I like the whole martial arts theme of this film, it real nice tributed to movies that mainly centering around that sort-of topic. Despite this however, there are problems I have with this movie. Such as going back to the Growling voice of Bale's Batman and the showing of the Scarecrow's character of the film, as well others like the action scenes which are unenjoyable to watch as we can't even see what is going on. Overall, this movie ain't too bad despite these major problems I already. It was a good reboot to the series, and the start of one of my favorite Movie Series, the "Dark Knight Trilogy", I absolutely recommend it, if you haven't seen this one which is possible.

This kinda make "Batman Forever" a better batman movie
25 September 2017
OH BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is going to be fun talking about this. I don't even know how to start talking about this crap anyways,let moves-on to the plot.

Basically going to start this by asking does this sounds familiar. Okay, there's a new villain in Gotham, Mr. Freeze, who want to steal every diamond at every museums in order to cure his dying wife while at the same time causing chaos throughout the city. Meanwhile, there's a scientist who is being vengeful and quickly became another new villain, Poison Ivy, and soon teamed-up with Freeze on his chaos, and it up for Batman, Robin, and later Batgirl, to take them down. Yeah, pretty much Schumacher is ripping off his own film which was "Batman Forever", which shows the first big problem of this film, that Schumacher doesn't seems creative making this movie by stealing another plot of a film he already made.

The Characters are all equally bad with such a terrible script and cringey dialog that makes this look like one of the filmmakers have help from their children that are in kindergarten. To nail-down each character which another complaint is they have too many here, like it insane and unnecessary. Anyways, I might nailed down each one, beginning with Robin, who does nothing here but just complains about the fact that he thinks Batman is jealous of the fact Poison Ivy loves him (She pretends to, so she can kills him) and it just unwatchable, it just so disappointing to see this as this role is reprised by Chris O'Donnell, and he didn't even know what was even going on with his role in this film, seriously. He was more emotional in the first movie, like a tortured soul, here he just turns into a freaking cry-baby. Batman on the other hand, is just sickening to see. Why there's always a grin on his face, what is he even smiling about, SERIOUSLY!!!! George Clooney the man who plays him this time, admits that during the production of this movie, stated that he doesn't wants Batman to be a tortured character, which is what Schumacher decide to turns him to in this crap, like seriously that ruins the concept of Batman, made him into a I don't know, Bible-Man. Just Stupid. Batgirl, is by far, meh. Now I honestly don't mined the changes they made for her because they were smart with this, by turning her into Alfred Pennyworth's niece, instead of Commissioner Golden's Daughter, which there nothing wrong with making her not his daughter, it just the Commissioner Golden of these films is someone I really despise, as he totally don't look like someone that would take care of a kid. Now this is a bad idea because they cast an American actress Alicia Silverstone to play the part, now half of this is not a problem as she is hot, but the issue her character is suppose to be British, and she sure did not shows a British accent here. Her character is just so forgettable, I don't really have that much to say. Going on to the villains is the worst of this, Mr. Freeze, my god his script is what this film is popular. Arnold Schwarzenegger, why, why you're in this, his Austrian accent makes it worst, it cringey and it really should speaks to itself, this is why the movie is strangely a cult following. Poison Ivy, again like batgirl, she attractive, but her lines, god, just kills me hearing it. Not much to say moved-on. Finally, and I save this one for last, Bane, the most butchered character, of all. Actually all of Humanity. Thanks Christopher Nolan for Reassuring him, and Two-Face, its a honor. Everything about him in this film, they just got wrong, like shows he dumb, NO!!! Bane is one of the Intelligent characters in the history of Comics, he figured Batman's true identity, not a joke, in this all he just said is BANE!!!! Sounds like he a drunken idiot. Nothing else about him, except he's a bodyguard for Poison Ivy, that all he's for really, nothing else, never breaks Batman's back, the most important thing he have even did, never even happens, he never even stops by Batman, but instead the two knuckleheads (Robin and Batgirl). The one question however remains is where is Dr. Chase Meridian, they seems to be forgotten about her within the film. Instead by some blend character, who clearly not much but Bruce Wayne's love interest of the film.

There tons and tons of problems like the style of Gotham City from Batman Forever is still here, but more worst. Of-Course the Bat-Nipples and Bat-Butts, obviously shows Schumacher taking his Homosexuality into a serious level, as well too many Neon colors to just to makes you illegally blind. The terrible Bat Vehicles, more pointless dialog than Action, it just a mess, a big fat mess. Now it seems like they're were late enough some serious subject matter here, like having Alfred dying at the end, but with us seeing terrible acting like "Ice man, Coming" or "Cool Party" (Both said by Mr. Freeze), just butchered things here. Anyways, this film is something you definitely need to stay away from, its not worth your time. If you really want to see a batman film with some cringey dialog, but yet a-lot of fun, check out Batman: The Movie from 1966.

Good as a typical movie, but as a Batman film, it just mediocre.
25 September 2017
Now I'm not going to review the first two Batman movies (Directed by Tim Burton, one of my favorite Directors), because I did see them before, but I think those are films that need to speak to themselves, I think they're well made and are just heartwarming (According to me) when watching them. So I'm just going to cut to this one, I do looks at this particular film quite interesting which lead to me wanting to talk about it. This film, eh. As just a movie, it well entertaining, got ton of mostly great action, a decent story, and overall just a good flick, but all of that makes this movie's score completely boiled down by the fact it's a batman film, as being a PG-13 rated film like the first two, but with a whole different director (Joel Schumacher) and a new style, it just easily ruins some things here and there, but yet at the same time there are some general praises I'll give to this film.

Basically there much to say about the story that there's a new villain in Gotham, calling himself Two-Face, who use to be a District Attorney named Harvey Dent, who just basically causing chaos in Gotham, for pretty much no reason, I guess Insanity, and of-course it up for Batman to stop this like always. Meanwhile, there's what will eventually be another new villain, Dr. Edward Nygma, is on a revengeful mission I guess, by completing ending-up losing his mind, and then became the "Riddler" and decide to joined Two-Face's range of terror in Gotham, as like his partner-in-crime, and it up for Batman, and eventually later, Robin, to stop these Lunatics. Yeah, it basically that.

I really to start this off with the Characters by talking about Two-Face, who I really despises the most about this movie. Now Two-Face is one of my favorite batman villains, just his concept I always seems to like, and he's actually one of my favorite characters from the Animated Series, due to the fact he was just a deeply emotional character. Here however, he not that Emotional, and he's basically like some Joker knock-off, it just pretty much ruins his character. He showed acting like a Idiot, which is nothing like Two-Face from the comics or the cartoon was even like, he was more intelligent than this. There one scene in particular, that totally makes me just disappointed with how they made him in this, he flip his coin, gotten to the normal side, and decide to flip it again to the mess-up side, just what the hell, he already made-up his FREAKING MIND!!! I thought the decide of his burned face was just sloppy, like they hired some bum who is a terrible artist and being the lazy low-life he is, just butchered it. Riddler on the other hand, I honestly kinda like in this movie, I totally think he would be this fun anyways, like I like the fact they turn him into like how you imagined a Psycho would be like, laughing insanely, all of this world he developing it just great, going back to how this is fun to watch as just a film, not a batman film, this is one of the reason, and I thought comedy legend Jim Carrey, did a well-done job, I love his first scene in this film as just blain Edward Nygma, just a good emotion he shows, better than how Two-Face is seen, my god. Batman I thought was kinda okay in this, now I like they kinda at least tries their best at making Batman kinda of a menacing guy to Criminals, and they did their best, so does Val Kilmer, but he's no Michael Kenton, I like however they actually made a better batman costume than the one in the first two, because it was just might been hard to even moved that around if you can only imagined, especially in Action scenes, but here they finally put acts together and decide to made a brand new with better speed with it, although I'm not really a big fan of the suit shown at the end of the movie, which was just unnecessary. Robin in this movie, I don't know why they could've cast a much younger, like a actual teenager, it not like Chris O'Donnell did a terrible job here, it just makes more sense that they could've cast someone younger, one big reason is that Bruce Wayne adopted him after his parents dies, which is weird because he looks about in his 20s, but oh-well. His origin story was kinda good in this, I was glad they didn't butchered him here either, well until the next movie. And last and not least, the sexy criminal Psychiatrist, Chase Meridian, played by the gorgeous Nicole Kidman. Now I found more of a interesting love interest for Batman/Bruce Wayne than Nicki Vale from the first movie, despite she was well-attractive. It just about Meridian's personality and her relationship with Bruce Wayne and Batman was just amusing and at the same time interesting to see.

So overall, as there quite a-bit of problems like the new design of Gotham, boy don't get me started, all I'm going to say it just not fitting to the name, and yeah, but I said its an entertaining film, but as a batman movie, no. So if you want to entertain yourself with something, like maybe a guilty pressure, I would recommend you checking this out, but if you want to see a good well-done Batman movie, stay away from this.

The Iceman (2012)
7/10
A neat mash-up of a Gangster and Serial Killer film, just like one of the critics said "It's ZODIAC meets GOODFELLAS"
24 September 2017
Out of all movies based on a notorious murderer, such as a Serial Killer, this one was by far one of the best, maybe along-side "Dear Mr. Gacy" which I haven't gotten around seeing but hopefully I will, and as- well the "Secret Life of Jeffrey Dahmer" and "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer", and of-course "Zodiac" despite I only seen half of it.

Basically the film is based on the life of Richard Kuklinski (Played by Michael Shannon), a huge, but ordinary looking man who is married to a beautiful woman and have two gorgeous daughters, and claimed to them to dubbed Disney films and later worked in the Bank system because of it for a living, but actually he doesn't works for either one of them, but instead no other than the Mafia, by at first dubs Pornographic films but then became a hired-man for Murder, which is something he done before and seemingly have no issue with, and even though he was cut-off by the Mob later-on, he became a typical serial killer with the name the "Iceman". This however, became a personal problem for him between his actual career and his family because of his former connections with the mob, with some threats that he dealing with about his wife and kids, in which lead to him to try his best to prevent any of this.

This movie was quite powerful as we see a man who made the bad choice of becoming a Assistant of America's worst ever Crime Organization, despite having a loving family fill with Women, a family he well devoted for, and does not like them being insulted or threaten. Shannon did a good job playing with the right emotions, when Kuklinski is either happy, sad, or mad. My favorite scene of him is when he's talking to his brother, Joey (Played by Stephen Dorff), who is in prison for raping and murdering a little girl. Just a strong anger he gave to him, makes the scene stand-out, and another great one (This is not a spoiler because you can find this chip on YouTube) is when a man who he accidentally bump into his car in traffic, and the man then insults him and his family which pisses him off and then tries to car-chase him with his wife and daughters, that was just crazy, and made them realize something ain't right about him. I also thought it was clever to cast Ray Liotta, who you might be familiar with from the popular movie "Goodfellas", as the lead mob guy of the film. He delivers a nice performance here, just showing your good-old Italian-American Gangster. Chris Evans did a brilliant job playing Kuklinski's partner in crime and obvious comic relief, at first when I saw him in this film, I honestly didn't even know it was him until I check on the rest of the cast, that just surprises me that Captain America plays in this type of film. I thought his character was kinda funny, I even found his first encounter with Kuklinski just great, especially how that particular scene ends, just wow. James Franco was also in this movie but just a minor role however until he's done with. Yeah don't really have anything else to say about of the cast except they're just alright I guess. I really likes the classic Italian- gangster feel of this film, it shows that this never dies even long after the 80s and the 90s with the Godfather movies and the Goodfellas (Back to the fact of casting Liotta).

Overall, this movie ain't that bad, but there is a-bit of problems comparing to this film plot and the real-life story of the Iceman, such as not showing his first kill as a child (Yes, that is true) or how his relationship begans which was quite brutal if you're wondering, if you want to hear about check-out Rob Dyke's video about Kuklinski or any of the HBO specials that shows interviews of him before he dies back in 2006. But overall they didn't seems to leave out a-lot of things which is good, I'm even surprise they actually bother bringing-up his abusive father (Which wasn't be a surprise either, as he a psychopathic killer, of-course, pretty usual). Anyways, if you love films like Zodiac or the Goodfellas and Godfather or both, I would recommend you guys checking this out.

Cube (1997)
8/10
Best Canadian Film and one of the best 90s Horror Film!!!
24 September 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Now I don't know that many Canadian films, beside this movie and a film called "Nothing" which just so happened to be directed by the same guy who give us this, and a French-Canadian film called "Polytechnique" which is about the Montreal Massacre that occurs in 1989, but this would be basically the best Canadian movie, for having both a great interesting and enjoyable-to-watch story and a group of good written characters.

The film is pretty much is about a group of people who're complete strangers to each other and are different occupations, one a Police Officer, one a Doctor, one a Math-Majored student, one a Architect, one a prisoner/escaped artist, and one a Mentally Challenged Individual, all trapped inside a mysterious Cube-like building with thousand of rooms, multiple with deadly traps and some without any, which is only proved first with a prime mathematical answer on a door entrance, which is seen on every single one. But with Kazan's (The mentally challenged Character) bad behavior, they may be on a high risk of not being able of getting out alive.

To begin with this, I shelled talk about the characters first, beginning with the Cop Quentin. He's such your stereotypical cop as he just a big jerk in the group despite taking their lead, which take me to the next character Worth (The Architect dude) who (Spoiler Alert) is one of the creators of the cube technically as he helps design it, he seems to be at first the film's Antagonist and Quentin being the hero, until we kinda slowly seen these characters taking the opposite way around as Quentin becomes more of a psychopath killing Holloway (The doctor) by purposely dropping her as she attempted to see there a way to get down from a door that just so happened to be a entrance out of the cube, and earlier threatens to kill Kazan for almost having him accidentally kill in another trap that was Sound Activated, and then soon decide to attempts to raped Leaven (The Mathematical Student) and then attempted to killed Worth twice by throwing him into two rooms that he thought were possibly traps, and then finally succeed in doing so, well kinda, by stabbing both him and Leaven (Which kills her) and attempted to make his move on Kazan as he about to walked out the true entrance of the cube, just to only be stopped by a Mortally wounded Worth which lead to Quentin's fate by being torned-apart by the Door shifting again. This kinda what Quentin's character stand-out as the true villain and I don't know how others would view this, but I think it a nice twist of showing Quentin being the bad guy and Worth not, speaking of Worth who I forgot to talk about him, I thought he was a alright character, he actually responsible not just for creating the Cube, but the best scene in the whole film as being quite emotional which is right around when we learned about him, especially him shouting "THERE NO WAY OUT!" which was just amazing. David Hewlett who plays Worth, and by far the only recognizable actor in the whole film, except I do know the chick who plays Leaven also plays a main character in a season of "Star Terk: Deep Space Nine" and that it, should considered this movie the upbringing of his career. Leaven I don't really have that much to say about her, just she a math Genius of the group, but I'm going to admit, she is kinda pretty:). Holloway was kinda of a nice character to watch, her conversations/relationship with Quentin was kinda interesting to see, and so her relationship with Kazan, as she the only one of the group who seems to have support for him as being someone with mental retardation, and her death was disappointing to see as it would been more nice to see her seeing Kazan's Intellectual secrets. Speaking of Kazan, I'll get to him now, as he is my second favorite of the group, as he sorta like me, as being someone who both have a Intellectual Disability and is on the Autism Spectrum, much like Kazan as he is later classified Autistic, I can totally relate to him, and it always nice to see him on Screen, according to me, and I'm glad he was the only survivor of the group, and as after-all it would been kinda harsh to have a Handicap character getting killed, the same with children. And last and not least, and I did decide to save this one for last, my favorite of the group with a huge disappointment about him however, the Escapist Rennes A.K.A. the "Wren". He was just a great character to see as one he's a old timer and that he just seems to be quite wise, which makes him cool. His death is like my biggest problem with this film however, how it not really a general problem he dies, it just too early, early as it was before we're introduced to Kazan. But over-all despite his death, I still find him enjoyable and interesting to watch.

Cube is just a fantastic film of Mystery, Thriller, and Horror, it must be watched. Also if you like the Saw series, or want to see a film that is like a strange mash-up of "Rain-Man" and "Saw", this is totally for him. Just great.

Shot Caller (2017)
7/10
Quite Overshadowed by other films of this year, but yet a powerful and an entertaining/interesting filck
24 September 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Now this particular film plot is something I've been honestly want to see for like a year, and it like my wish surprisingly been Granted. For a year now, I been resourcing about Peckerwood gangs such as the "Aryan Brotherhood" and the "Nazi Lowriders" and the whole subculture of Peckerwood's life, and wondering when they will ever make a movie about this, like a guy who became part of this life, went to Prison, began following the several roots of Neo-Nazism, and had continued to be a part of it in the free-world with Street Gangs, this was pretty much all of that, and man it doesn't disappoint me at all.

(Spoiler Alert) Basically the film is about a ordinary White Citizen with a perfect family who is sent to prison for DUI and decide he must protect himself by merely joining one of the prison's most notorious Cliques, the "Aryan Brotherhood" so he won't be either a rape victim or a murder victim of any of the Non-White Inmates, despite refusing once about joining due to the gang's use of racism, being well-fueled with Methamphetamine, and shelled be willing to kill, he joins anyway by beginning to help them out with their Drug Trafficking and even kills a Member that is no-longer worth to be one of them. This soon went to a end for him, as he was then sent to a Maximum Security Prison after being found with a assault charge within another riot at his previous one, where he continues his White Supremacist roots and became a full-fledged member of the Brotherhood, despite being lock-up in a cell all-day, everyday. Soon he was released recommended by his Unit Manager to the Parole Board due to being a lesser convict. Upon his release, in the outside world, he quickly met-up with his founder to the gang, who is also paroled, and a young new comer who admits he wants to join them. However, things began to be a personal struggle between the gang and his family, as he then in the first time in years, encountered both his wife and son, who are disappointed by what he becomes, and both know he will be back to Prison, this then lead him to a series of thinking that he could either continues or given-up this life, so he can be with his family. Now this is how far I can go, as it seems this is what it all about.

Nikolaj Coaster-Waldau role as the main character was well-doned, he shows just good emotions when he either Happy, Sad, or Angry, especially when he's talking serious with the young member, this just shows that he been to a rough place before (Prison) and that he's no Clown. The young member was alright, just wondering (Spoiler Alert) what happens to him upon our character second arrest for both 1st degree Murder, Arms Trafficking, and Parole Violation, he was shows disappointed at his buddies' arrest, and was then never showed again nor even mentioned, I guess it would good they didn't want to have a young character being arrested into something that he actually did admits earlier he didn't want to be part of, as it was all just a upbringing pretty much. The rest of the cast I can't really say much, except the Mexican guy who is surprisingly allied the White Supremacist Street Gang, and the Brotherhood, he was a-little bit of a cool character, but they should've shows more of him in the film, and shows more of his relationship with the film's central-protagonist, but oh-well. I would like to point-out that Omari Hardwick as the Parole Officer did do a amazing job, especially his interactions with Coaster-Waldau's character despite his beliefs.

This film I would probably describe it as the "American History X" of the decade, as it quite emotional, especially the ending which I thought was a good way to end it, and they did a brilliant job focusing on the peckerwood's gang life in both Prison and on the Streets, although they would probably do something like showing the main character suffering from a Meth addiction, but hey I kinda understand why they would show something like that, because that would be too much, but still I recommend this movie to those who likes American History X and general prison films like Lock-Down or TV Shows like Oz or Prison Break. It is most likely a overshadowed film by other ones coming out this year, but definitely would not be forgotten, better than the crappy "All Eyez on Me".

Just a big disappointment of a Insult to a Legend!
8 August 2017
Warning: Spoilers
When I first saw the trailer, I wasn't in no way wanting to see this film. I knew this was going to sucks (Which is why I missed it, but eventually got around watching it online). I had a "Yin and the Yang" thinking that if there already a good movie (Straight Outta Compton), and there a possibility there will be a bad one (This film), and boy my prediction was surprisingly correct. This film was just a disgrace towards the man, just a big disappointment. Too much in this movie is just disappointing, like they just fails really.

The first big disappointment is that the tag-praise "The untold story of Tupac Shakur", just misleading because the stuff we already know like him being in Prison, him getting shot, getting shot the other time, getting signed to Interscope, leaving interscope to get signed to Death Row, the sexual assault charges, all of that is in this film which is neat but the issue is we already know about all of this, it is not at all "Untold". Another is they don't even go though these events, we just have about 3-5 minutes of watching it, then onto the next scene. No explanation at all.

Even the stuff we didn't even know like the poem scene, are made-up for this film, which is just insulting, and another is they left-out a-lot of things like the groups "Outlawz" and "Thug Life" as well the Movement, his support for Anti-Violence towards women (Despite he did mention he will never rape, but that just like what anyone would say), his Step-father, Suge Knight being a Bully (Which the only reason they would make that up, because who likes Suge anyways, but still it's a-bit of a Insult here) and most notably the "East Coast and West Coast Rivalry", which lead in to an nonsensical scene (Spoiler Alert) in which he telling Death Row East that he despise everything about them, which according to someone like me who knows a-lot about 2pac and Biggie (No, I'm not a crazed Fanboy) I understand why, because it most likely because of his relationship with Biggie, but it just doesn't makes sense to a audience member, because Biggie have little-no-do with these guys and it all probably because of the Rivalry which they never really shows, so therefor, complete laziness.

The biggest disappointment (And I save this for last) the ending. Just really, now if you saw the Notorious film ending they showed like what his legacy was like in the East Coast Hip-hop scene, basically paying tribute to him, but here however (Spoiler Alert) after 2pac was shot for the second time (And this time permanently) it just ends, well not really, but it kinda went like that, in which after he was shot, a text came on the screen, mentioning he dies a few days later and then it ends, just still that kinda make you reacts "Come on, that the best you can come-up". Really just shows they're so lazy making this, which shows lack of Emotional and powerful meaning, like there no-one else feeling emotional about his death, except for Suge Knight, but no-one that is at least likable.

A-lot of bad acting (Especially Snoop, seriously a voice-over in a all-live-action film, that just brilliant), terrible praising (Which I already mentioned), Mistakes that are like things that never even happened like again the poem scene and Suge saying Pac owns Death Row East (Back to that issue, well kinda) and just over-all a sloppy film. There good things about it like Biggie who I'm surprise they cast the same dude who played him in Notorious but nor he can even saved this film, as he pretty much a minor character (Going back to the Rivalry issue), and 2pac's mother was kinda done well by that Walking Dead chick, but the downfall comparing to her performance (A general political ex-leader) and 2pac's actual mother, just meh.

If you like this movie, that fine, I don't really care honestly, you have the rights of your opinion, but this still was in-fact a disgrace, and I still don't understand how this was a commercial success, but it gotten its place at critically, and you already knew that I understand why.
