Meg 2: The Trench (2023)

Garbage

[1/10 · 25 November 2023]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage and so much garbage. This is one of the worst movies ever made. Dumb plot, idiotic acting, pure rubbish. What a waste of time. Who in the world created this movie? Have your head examined, and who cast all these sub par actors, was there even acting in this, because it is just an amalgamation of nonsense piled from other action movies and assembled with Scotch tape into the biggest piece of junk ever made. And who cares about the Chinese speaking trash . Really, simply don't watch because it will upset your stomach or make you nauseated, erase this junk from it all.

Infinite (2021)

Very good and entertaining

[8/10 · 14 May 2023]

From the start, this movie takes you on an amazing adventure. Story is easy to follow, acting is on the money, and wow, for once, maybe no one goes to bed with each other. Pure action, with lots of solid CGI, could the CGI be better? Yes, but it is good enough in my opinion, because the plot is easier to follow than some of the big blockbusters. Really enjoyed the flow. Am I a big Mark fan, no, but he was the perfect fit in this. As were all of main cast, this flick takes you globally and back through time, yes some gaps in what could be done, but good enough. Bravo and it would be nice to see a sequel, because the end might leave you with a chance of perhaps.

1917 (2019)

Brilliant

[10/10 · 10 July 2022]

A marvelous movie, takes you through the shards and wretches of wars, emotional, spellbinding, brilliant acting, action. This is magnificent movie making.

Greenland (2020)

Well done

[8/10 · 9 July 2022]

I didn't think much as I started watching, but this movie took me through it all. Sure, you can tell it's not a blockbuster with lots of CGI, but the story runs good, and the acting is spot with on, with a very good music score. Watch it, it's great.

Skyggen i mit øje (2021)

Masterpiece

[10/10 · 27 March 2022]

Very sad to see, but this was done so well. Acting on the spot, cinematography brilliant, you get sucked into the action and just brilliant. Very very tragic story, be warned this is hard to swallow...

Against the Ice (2022)

Masterpiece

[10/10 · 26 March 2022]

Long but very captivating, brilliant cinematographer, superb acting, this was a perfect movie. The horror of self isolated in a remote ice wilderness, very very good job.

Polar (I) (2019)

Brilliant and outstanding

[10/10 · 22 February 2022]

Mads is awesome, the movie is a nail biting swerve after swerve of action and just darn good from every angle you want to look at it. Yes, there is some nudity and some explicit scenes, as was in scarface, but this was just so well executed. Loved it.

The Mephisto Waltz (1971)

Decent spooky movie

[7/10 · 9 February 2022]

Well acted, and with twists and turns that will keep you watching. Effects could have been better, but what can one expect in 1971. The ending wasn't complete, and a sequel would have made the experience better.

Synchronic (2019)

What happened?

[6/10 · 28 January 2022]

If Mackey wouldn't be the lead, would be a complete disaster. C'mon, this should have been fantastic, CGI sucked, as did many of the actors, like really...good story, poorly executed, expected better.

Zone 414 (2021)

Pretty good

[7/10 · 2 January 2022]

Low budget, yes, but lots of good action, in depth acting that makes this worthwhile to watch. Loved it. Lead characters all have solid performances, and the ending was perfect, something that can't be said of so many over budget flops.

The Forgotten Battle (2020)

Exceptional

[10/10 · 19 December 2021]

This is an epic journey with seemingly unknown cast that simply made this one of my all time favorites. Suspense is nail biting, soul is torn, and to know of how many other acts of kindness, bravery, honor there were. A must must must watch.

Stowaway (I) (2021)

Ok, should have been better

[6/10 · 12 December 2021]

Acting lacked from a couple of characters, commander and stowaway were fabulous. Music score was superb as were visual effects, but story lacks elements, and ending plainly sucks.

Airport 1975 (1974)

Good flick

[8/10 · 12 December 2021]

You have to understand the era when this was done to feel that it was a decent movie. Great actors, and pretty good special effects from an era where digitization was non existent, let alone computers. Yes, there are some cliche this and that, but give it up for the pace, authenticity, and flow...it is a great movie.

The Harder They Fall (2021)

Brilliant

[10/10 · 28 November 2021]

Everything you want is in this movie, excellent ! Bravo ! Cast played on the money, action was on the money, just brilliant, waiting for a sequel. When will they make one? Definitely deserves it.

Train to Busan (2016)

Stupidly entertaining

[6/10 · 21 November 2021]

Lack of expression on main character faces, little girl was best. Too much plastic surgery....but, the action is good, you'll want to watch till the end to see how the stupidity ends.

2067 (2020)

Poorly executed

[5/10 · 23 October 2021]

Acting was great, but low budget and twisted story (that could have been made better with a bigger budget) would have made this flick worth recommending. As such, it was just bland and failed in my eyes...

Major Grom: Plague Doctor (2021)

Very good

[9/10 · 19 July 2021]

A fresh movie, with lots of funny moments, and action scenes to keep you entertained till the end. Acting was too notch, loved it.

The Devil Below (2021)

Bad, but not the worst

[3/10 · 10 July 2021]

Low budget, bad acting from several main cast, bad CGI, poorly executed, but watched till end - probably shouldn't...yeah, nice caves.

The Panic in Needle Park (1971)

Excellent

[9/10 · 8 July 2021]

Had it all, never mind Pacino in his excellence... whole cast and story was great, except the ending... wanted to see more of how their lives unfolded, too bad a sequel wasn't made.

The Tomorrow War (2021)

Very good

[9/10 · 3 July 2021]

Almost perfect, except it crammed too much into the time frame for the whole one film, should have been 2 films with less rushed scenes.

Monster Hunter (2020)

Great movie

[8/10 · 28 June 2021]

Excellent cast, excellent CGI, only flaws are pace of story, trying to cram too much in one movie, that's how I felt it. And the M1 MBT getting ripped, well, having been a 19K, you can see why I'm not happy about that, lol.

The Colony (I) (2013)

Ok

[7/10 · 20 June 2021]

Should have been better, had it not been for Laurence and Kevin acting, along with Bill and a couple of others... would have been a disaster. CGI was marginal, plot was good, but had some holes...but bearable to the end, because you get hooked.

Men in Black: International (2019)

Ok, just ok

[7/10 · 26 May 2021]

Plot was good, cinematography was mediocre, many scenes lack fluidity and feel too digital. Chris just doesn't cut it for me, Tessa rocks it. It's definitely entertaining, but the zest to make it a massive hit and not forgettable is simply missing.

Army of the Dead (2021)

Loved it

[8/10 · 23 May 2021]

Decent acting, action packed, somewhat predictable, plot has some holes in it, but hey..we all need a good zombie movie once in a while. Don't get too picky, and keep the young ones away from it, it's an adult watch only.

Jupiter's Legacy (2021)

Love this series

[10/10 · 9 May 2021]

Excellent acting, special effects are great also, and a storyline that keeps you wanting to watch more. Halfway through the first season, keep it going...
