Hello Ladies (2013)
Love Mr Merchant. Loathe his character
I want to like, no, LOVE this. The main character is just so incredibly vile - and not that vile type we love to hate either. Just, hate?
Always had a thing for the bad guy/villain/misunderstood meanie. Still do. This one however is not fun to watch. I'm writing this in agony. Aborted the mission episode 4. Feels like I'm selling out, but the truth is the truth I guess ...
Morbius (2022)
New bat on the block - I'm in!
I loved me some bat since childhood (think Keaton) but lost interest in my 30's. Big Bale fan but the ga-zillion superhero movies got a bit much and I eventually stopped watching any.
Horror movies remain my favorite genre and as such Morbius caught my eye roaming for info on The Black Phone. Oh happy days! Watched it without reading up about it, didn't even know it's based on yet another comic ...
Great entertainment and fun to watch.
The bad Reviews are hilarious to read after you've watched it - fanboys in their mom's basement complaining about the 'character development' or 'cgi this or that'. Urghh. It's blatantly obvious these wannabe cinematic geniuses are just jealous of Jared Leto's hair ...as we all should be.
Our Friend (2019)
A lovely fantasy
Watching this was bitter sweet for me.
How lovely the idea is - if I watched this during my chemo and radiation sessions 2019-2021 it would have made me real sad. What a lovely premise, but alas, everyone have their own lives and in the end, the reality is that most of us deal with things as cancer pretty much on our own.
The time lines depicting every scene in relation to diagnosis is so realistic. So true to real life - that diagnosis takes over and all of the sudden everything about you - and you - somehow revolves around it.
Beautiful, albeit fantasy for the most.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022)
Getting to old for this BS
O. M. G --- I looove the horror genre, always have and probably always will (unfortunately it seems 😠)
I just finished watching and I am sweaty for all the wrong reasons!!!
Come on - Leatherface is an old ballie now, and not exactly boasting a fit, athletic figure. Yet, mister Face, Mister Leather Face can overpower all them millennials or Generation Whatever's and it drives me insane !!!!!
LIKE, I. CANNOT. EVEN.
So difficult writing this without using profanity man!!!! Like I'm swearing like a sailor over here!!
When the bad guy is down, you cut that MF into a million pieces. A. MILLION. PIECES!!!!
I'm about to have wine and watch anything with Kevin Hart in it else I might just have a stroke.
Ryan James: I'm Fine (2021)
Raw, authentic, honest = beautiful
Came across this special today, watched it twice. I'm probably not going to do it justice as I'm no film critic (this is my second review..) but I call it as I see it.
He took me on a journey - his journey - and it gets dark AF at times. Let's just say he's experienced more than his fair share of tragedy and outright cruelty, to the extent that I can almost believe he might have been Hitler in a previous life (his words, not mine)
Yet his humor and inviting personality shines and I see a beautiful soul, with more guts than most, willing to share his pain and insecurities which is, well, commendable and, for the lack of a better word - really hot?!
How he manages to tell such dark tales whilst keeping it light and entertaining at the same time - I CANNOT EVEN!
That said, he might just be a dude that wants to get laid ....
A Million Ways to Die in the West (2014)
Clever kids only
Expected slap-stick comedy, got well written comedy gold.
The Wild West realistically viewed through neurotic main character's eyes - spot on. (Not that I was there per se, just read a book or two)
Charlize and Seth's scenes flow so seamlessly it feels like behind the scenes footage captured them just having fun.
Spoil yourself. Not for intellectually challenged folks.
The Real Exorcist (2008)
Cringe Worthy
Nothing "real" to see here - I endured episode 1, mainly because I was too lazy to find the remote.
Our arrogant Pastor boasting to the poor taxi driver about his upcoming "exorcism" was particularly lame and sets the tone for what's about to come.
A quick Google after the painful experience confirmed what's pretty obvious - our leading man is indeed a phoney. Huuuge shocker.
