Of an Age (2022)
Stupid Aspect Ratio 4:3
Enjoyed the movie, loved the feel of it. Nice to see more quality Gay movies coming out and definitely would recommend it. Love independent style/drama type of movies. But the one thing I didn't like was the Aspect Ratio. We all have wide screen TVs in this day of age and Directors should respect that. It's been a few movies to have a Tube TV aspect ratio and I just find this insulting to the viewer. Wide screens allows more beautiful scenery and to have a ratio of 4:3 is ridiculous. Isn't it IMAX that would show such ratio ??? Well this isn't an IMAX movie and I was disappointed not to have seen this movie in Widescreen. I gave a 5 for the movie because of the aspect ratio chosen, but if it were a widescreen I would have give a 7, maybe an 8.
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
Horrible, Horrible and Horrible
Thor should be somewhat of a dark mood and follow the first 2 films. I thought the 3rd movie was bad with the lame comedic jokes but they took it to a whole new level of corniness! I had to stop watching when they reached the Zeus scene as everything before is simply silly. Whoever wrote this storyline and made it so so so idiotic should be fired. I'd rather be bored than watching this awful movie. And please keep other marvel characters in their respective movies.
It seems that Marvel are great at doing a first film of a certain character but when it comes to sequels they tend to butcher it all.
Fire Island (2022)
Sweet Rom-Com
I was having a not so great day, put this movie on and it lifted me up. Sweet, funny and cute movie. Worth the watch :) ...the "Sunset" moment in the movie (hahaha funny)
Queer as Folk (2022)
A show without heart and soul
This version of QAF (or a show that follows the life of a group of Gay friends), has a weak storyline, uninteresting characters and no heart. I was expecting more but this was just a waste of time. The 1999 UK and US series were much better.
If you're interested in a couple of decent shows there are many out there to chose from; "Looking", "Love, Victor" and "Young Royals" just to mention a couple.
Young Royals (2021)
Best Gay TV Show I have ever seen !!!
The relationship between Simon(who sings like an Angel) and Prince Wilhelm is caught up within a "lovely chemistry" between the 2 characters(from a shy smiley look or just a kiss). The intimacy scenes between them are so well done it's almost as if they were not acting, but simply getting lost within one into another. Really great acting(It's difficult to convey such intimacy scenes so sweetly and feeling so very real). The Story unfolds beautifully and believable.
The Score/Soundtrack is so thoughtfully and carefully crafted from beginning to end. A TV Show Full of Heart ! Totally captivated by this new show, it leaves me with so much hope for a second season.
Mulan (2020)
Mulan's Kissing Scene deleted
I was not familiar with Disney Mulan until I saw the Live Action 2020 Remake which has become part of my favorite Disney Movies. Sadly, The Kissing Scene was taken out and it would have been such a sweet moment.
"...the director of the film Niki Caro revealed that a test screening of Mulan with local authorities and audience members was held in China, and they disapproved the kissing scene. The director also revealed that it was a very beautiful moment in the film but the Chinese officials stated that it does not feel right to include an intimate scene for Chinese audiences and thus, it was taken out."
The Man with the Answers (2021)
Beautifully, Peacefully Crafted
What a sweet movie this was ! Very nice story line, beautiful Cinematography, a sweet little Drama with Heart ! Only criticism is that it was too short.
Sublet (2020)
Beautifully crafted little gem
I have been waiting for this movie for almost a year and it doesn't disappoint. A well layered storyline creating heart from its realness. Moving, touching, & tender ! I Loved the feel that the cinematography and Score provide, to give it that sweet elusive feeling. A must See ^^
Love, Victor (2020)
Very Cute
Love the way the film ties into the series.
Cannot wait to watch Season 2 ! There must be a 2nd Season :) Benji awwwww so adorable !
The Education of Fredrick Fitzell (2020)
What A MESS of a Story
Love Dylan's movies but this was simply awful. I don't feel like this director/writer knew what he was doing. Over complicated story, kept waiting for the ending to get an explanation of what was happening, but that didn't happen. This is just a mess don't waste your time !
The Empty Man (2020)
Started interesting but turned for the worse
The movie started out well. It felt like an original horror movie about, if at night, while on a bridge, you found an empty bottle and blew into it. The aftermath if you did so, is a creepy entity that would try to kill you on the third day.
All of that was set to be a bit predictable, but would have been entertaining if it would have been set to follow this storyline.
Instead, the writer(s) and Director tried to be overly created(which was an EPIC FAIL), making the story way too confusing half way through and going downhill from there.
Don't waste your time.
Chaos Walking (2021)
Pleasantly Surprised
I watched this movie without having seen any trailers nor read reviews about it.
I found myself enjoying the movie early into it. I was happy to find out after watching the movie that it was based on a trilogy book series. I'm hoping they will go ahead with the second book to follow this movie. Nice to potentially have a new "trilogy" movie series like Maze Runner and The Hunger Games for example.
I found the plot of the movie clever making it into an interesting Sci-fi adventure.
Artemis Fowl (2020)
Don't waste your time
Poor Attempt in trying to make something magical from Disney. Big Fail.
Love, Victor (2020)
Very Cute
Love the way the film ties into the series.
Cannot wait to watch Season 2 ! There must be a 2nd Season :) Benji awwwww so adorable !
First Wives Club (2019)
Jill Scott is a Goddess
Great take on a first wives club classic.
Those 3 ladies do carry well this show.
Cannot wait ford 2nd season.
Please we need a 2nd season !!!
