The Equalizer 3 (2023)
Much more substance and message
I've seen all of the Equalizer movies and this one was far the best in my opinion. This movie had more substance, meaningful, thoughtfulness in a round about way. The scenery was amazing! The plot was thought provoking that gave you twistsand a message at the end. The characterization was spot on. You loved to hate the bad guys. This movie had all of the suspense, plenty of violence, jumps, and compassion believe it or not. Their were some scenes that were just incredible!! Not the ordinary same old violence like the last two. This one was more thought provoking. It had meaning behind all of it. From the beginning to the end will have you wanting more but realizing this movie has to end here. It ended in a good note.
The Blackening (2022)
Unexpected delight
This was a very good and entertaining movie . This movie had it all. It had comedy, suspense, history,trivia, horror, good STORYLINE, PLOT, and good characterization. This wasn't one of those movies that was predictable. It had jumps, scares and so many comedic scenes that I couldn't stop laughing. This was a refreshing movie that used many references as comedic trivia; that was different but very entertaining. I surprised myself trying to answer a few of the trivia questions too. It kinda reminded a little of the movie, scream but not as violent. It had plenty of surprises especially at the end. I definitely enjoyed it. I highly recommend it.
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (2023)
Enjoyable but not the best
Sometimes you have to learn self control and stop with the series already! We all hoped this Transformers would be better than the others and in some cases it was but not as good as the others. This movie was a bit slow, the humor was hard to detect and the storyline a bit confusing based on all of the others even though it took place in 1994. I found myself yawing a few times and felt their should of even more background info on some of the characters. What I did ENJOY was the diversity in casting, the soundtrack, and the storyline with his brother fighting sickle cell disease. Of course, who couldn't forget the PORSCHE scene!! OMG!
The Menu (2022)
Clever
This was a surprisingly, crafted, and clever horror thriller down to final desert. The characterization was spot on as well as the carefully, crafted, and exciting storyline. The menu was crafted around what we've always took for granted: service, food, dedication, and expertise from a chef and its workers. Never enough gratitude given to chefs alike. This movie seems like a homage to chefs who are never given accolades for their hard work, vision, training, and pallet. This is what happens when the chef isn't appreciated for their hard work. This movie was enjoyable but tragic. The pain of disappointment all of those years. Excellent movie. I get it. My compliments to the chef👏🏽👏🏽
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022)
They shouldn't have made another movie
Where to start at this rushed and thrown together movie? The tribute to Chadwick was heartbreaking. I teared up a few times but the tribute was overkill! From the beginning, middle, and end the writers wanted us to stay focused on Chadwick. The mentions of the characters Iron Man and the Hulk was unwarranted and unnecessary especially since they weren't their to help. I was very ANNOYED with that the student scientist who was in the knock off Iron Man suit because it took Tony Stark more than a few times to get the hang of his suit and it only took her 5 minutes or less!?!?? Really? How come Aquaman and the Atlantians didn't know anything about these people who lived among them?? The storyline seemed rushed and it didn't make sense. They should've never made this movie.
Halloween Ends (2022)
Praying this is the final movie
I really wanted to like this movie. Don't get me wrong Jamie Lee Curtis was a bad Azz in this movie but Michael seemed like a guest star that didn't really have any good scenes. The storyline was poorly written. It seems like the writers just ran out of ideas or was just ready for this to finally end. I really never thought about how old he must be at this point and would be unable to be the killer we all remember. I truly hope this is the end of this installment. I really feel a little cheated that this ending could've been better to US the loyal fans who've watched every installment since the beginning.
Black Adam Precursor (2020)
Excellent start to an many more installments
First of all you MUST see this movie in a theatre. The special effects and sound can only be appreciated in a theatre. The characterization was well constructed. They had plenty of action from start to finish. Their was never a dull moment when it came to action. The cast was awesome and well balanced. The scenery was authentic as well as the extras of people. I can really appreciate the authenticity of the people. I really liked the surprise at the end. Please don't leave after the credits. This movie is a great start to many installments to come. This was an introduction to the character of Black Adam. I recommend this movie.
Guardians of Time (2022)
Dragons and raptors oh my
I enjoyed this movie. It reminded me of Narnia. The cast was very talented. The special affects were pretty good as well as the storyline. Would've like to see more of a backstory on the main characters but it didn't take away from the movie. The casting director did an amazing job. All of the cast members seemed to work well together which definitely made this movie so enjoyable. The dragon and raptor looked as realistic as Jurassic Park and The House of the Dragon. I would've loved to had seen more of the dragon although it was on the screen for awhile. The raptor had a lot of screen time which was good.
The Invitation (2022)
This movie was better than expected
This movie was pretty good especially the clever ending which wasn't expected but I would've loved to see if anyone escaped from the mansion and why didn't she die when he died as the others did. They were all linked to him, right? She didn't kill anyone but she was still one of them . Loved the costumes and the scenery. The storylines and background of some of the characters needed a little more work. Would have enjoyed learning more about the history of each character and how they were chosen. I especially wanted more background on the townspeople and how they get mixed up with this so called arrangement. I definitely enjoyed this movie.
The Black Phone (2021)
Amazing suspense
Fantastic storyline! The mounting suspense was unimaginable. I couldn't figure out who was responsible. Loved the turns and twists. This was a good movie.
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
I really wanted to like this movie
I'm disappointed. I really wanted to like this movie but the storyline just didn't make sense. It had to many comedic lines that was overkill. It seemed silly at times. I wanted more THOR and less comedy but more villains. Hoping the next movie is better. Stick to what works.
The Man from Toronto (2022)
Not as good as I hoped
There was absolutely no chemistry between Kevin and Woody. There were a few funny scenes but that's all. The plot was hard to follow at first but I managed to understand it later.-
Eternals (2021)
This movie was terrible!
I really wanted to like this movie but it fell short. The plot was confusing as well as the characters. Not a fan of Jolie but this movie was beneath her talents.
Halloween Kills (2021)
Former victims show up
What a pleasant surprise to see former victims who survived Michaels wrath. I was expecting the ending to be a little different. Movie was entertaining and didn't disappoint.
Till Death (2021)
Pretty good movie
I had low expectations but I was pleasantly surprised that this was actually pretty good. The plot was good and the movie was very suspenseful .I jumped a few times. Fox did a good job!
Jurassic Hunt (2021)
Not bad. It is worth the watch
Pretty good plot and I especially enjoyed the dinosaurs hunting the hunters.
Jungle Cruise (2021)
Great movie reminded me of the move , The Mummy
I really wasn't sure about this movie due to the bad reviews but I loved it !! It had plenty of action and a good storyline. It reminded me a little of the movie, the Mummy. It had humor and suspense. I enjoyed it!!
The Tomorrow War (2021)
Tons of action!!!
This movie had a little of Starship Troopers and Aliens2. It was an awesome storyline with tons of action and suspense! A star studded cast. The CGI was excellent!! I will watch again.
The House Next Door (2021)
Entertaining, Funny but predictable
This movie was entertaining but predictable using storylines from different horror movies. This was a satire at most but funny.
Loki (2021)
What an excellent start!
I was literally glued to the tv. What an awesome start and a fantastic storyline! Loved it!! Can't wait for the next episode!!
Endangered Species (2021)
Not bad at all
I actually enjoyed it although it was a bit far fetched. I mean, really far fetched but entertaining. I don't understand the bad reviews. Give it a chance.
Spiral: From the Book of Saw (2021)
Great movie!! It's full of surprises
Wow!! This was a pretty good movie. I admit that I really never watched the other movies in its entirety but I enjoyed the comic relief 😅 Never would of imagined one of the main characters ( NO SPOILER) would die in this manner. I'll probably rewatch.
Aquarium of the Dead (2021)
Cheesy but fun
The acting was predicable but I enjoyed it. A lot of comedic performances.
Army of the Dead (2021)
Surprising ending
I enjoyed this movie although I'm not a zombie fan. I was watching for actor Omari Hardwick. He did a good job playing a different role other than a "thug" 😉 This movie was fast paced and had plenty of surprises and a bit of comedic scenes. I would definitely recommend this movie.
American Gods: House on the Rock (2019)
Loved the series BUT
I enjoyed this series until they cancelled it!!! They left all of us in limbo! What kind of crap is that??
