The Exorcist: Believer (2023)
What a shame.
Pretty shameless of them to call it a sequel.
It is nothing compared to The Exorcist.
3/10 for the plot, it had a lot of potential if it was written BETTER. Lots of plot holes, and lots of unexplained things. It left the audience confused and unsatisfied.
5/10 for the acting, they were trying I guess...
0.5/10 for scare factor. It's not even thrilling, I was fully expecting it to be as scary as The Exorcist.
Maybe if this movie wasn't called a sequel, it wouldn't have had as many bad reviews...
Most movies that are sequels/remakes don't do as well as the original. Seems like there's a pattern here. (E.g. Mean girls. That was a musical mess.)
I'm just glad I didn't spend money to watch it in the theatres.
The Fall Guy (2024)
Colt crying to All Too Well just like all of us 🤣
Action packed, hilarious, and amazing stunt work!
Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt always delivers in their role. Gives the audience a glimpse into the reality of filmmaking. Also the stunts were crazy good, kudos to the amazing stunt team.
I also loved that the director showed the behind the scenes of stunt men performing the stunts during the credit scenes. They do most of the dangerous and high risk stunts, so they absolutely deserve it.
PS: my favourite scene was Ryan Gosling crying to All Too Well, just like all of us when we go through some heartbreak.
Saddest scene:
"Do you get oscars for being a stuntman?"
"No"
Favourite stunt: The free fall from the helicopter.
Jongmalui Babo (2024)
Watched this at x2 speed and still skipped many scenes
I had high hopes for this one because South Korean films about Sci-Fi/dystopia are usually pretty good (e.g. Train to Busan, The Host, The Tower, Haeundae, The Moon) but this was extremely disappointing.
Watched this at x2 speed and still feel like my time was wasted. Honestly, the plot had potential but the entire buildup was too slow and anti-climactic. No plot twists, everyone was just pretty much waiting to die. Seriously??? I doubt people would just sit around and wait for their impending death when a disaster is coming.
I am also very annoyed at the plot building up that Sang Eun (Yoo Ah In) is an important researcher and they need him to escape but they did not go into detail about it even until the last episode?!?!?
The only satisfaction of the entire series was when Ha-Yul's father finally died. They made his character really hatable.
The 2 stars are given because at least the cinematography and the actors (most) are good. Not Yoo Ah In though, I felt like his acting was quite lacking. Maybe it's because it's been a while since he's acted.
