Detroit (2017)

Wow

[9/10 · 23 November 2022]

I'll keep it short. Here is the most intense scene i've saw in a long time. The rating seems far to low for such a movie. It starts quit broad. It seems the movie lacks direction. Yet, you'll sort out some of the characters. And the movie starts focusing till the middle where everything comes together . After that, it will leave you with a broad story again. Just to set your thoughts straight. I geuss the strongest thing about this movie; i understood the cops who where afraid, the black cop who tried to help and the black community who where afraid and so frustrated with the law. Wow! Props!!

Elvis (2022)

First part is really terrible but ends quite good

[5/10 · 21 July 2022]

I'm a bit surprised about al the raving ratings of this movie. The first hour of the movie felt rushed. Scenses where so short, it was unwatchable. And all those extra CGI. / Drone effects thrown in for no reason. The main characters didn't even have change to tell their story. And what about that scene where the Colonel looks thru the stairs to spot Elvis. It felt straight out of a b-style musical piece. And then the modern music within the 50s, 60s era, why? Didn't Elvis have enough songs for the music score?

I bet if anyone would write a review after the first part of the movie, it would result in 5 stars max.

Yet, the runtime of the movie is quite long. And the good thing, at the end of the movie you forget about the first hour and the movie gets quite decent. Acting is very strong and the characters have finally some time to develop them self.

So, prepare yourself for a b-style movie for the first hour. The 2nd part is quite nice.

How the Beatles Changed the World (2017 Video)

What about the drummer?

[3/10 · 25 November 2018]

Being 45 min in and still no mention of the drummer in the background; who can take this seriously?

If you want to hear words like mania , influence and succes, this will be your documentary. Other wise, let it be.
