Dick Johnson Is Dead (2020)
Loved This Doco!
Extra Sentimental Becoz of my Dads passing!
A sad but must see on how Dementia or Alzheimers can have a massive burden on the family. I've seen this with Grandparents and really is one of toughest watches to see your Nana completely lose memory.
It begins with Dick's journey at the very early stages! Daughter Kirsten balances Directing & Daughter duties for it for it to be informative plus add the comedic side which really lightens up the subject topic.
The final scene was super tense and his best friend's eulogy then playing the flute had me a type of a way lol.
Overall Thank you Dick & Kath for inviting us on this Journey. God Bless
Yangguang puzhao (2019)
Seize The Day!
Foreign - China
This Movie is Beautiful! Such a Gentle Soul type of a Film
Characters with flaws but played with so much depth & passion. This ensemble cast is brilliant.
The Score & Cinematography was Incredible! The story of redemption for A-Ho is one I was rooting for! Just an awesome character study.
Great comedic moments! Top Notch Film
The Forty-Year-Old Version (2020)
RADNA is a Force

Mosul (2019)
Kawa!
Tired of the American Hollywood Propganda Warlike Movie!
A breath of fresh air str8 brutal, gory & real modern warfare
Kawa just turned into a Savage Soldier too quickly lol
The Run The Jewels track too! Nice Surprise!
Sala samobójców. Hejter (2020)
Heartless
Foreign - Polish
The Hater - English translation isn't the right title for this Film. I'd prefer Obsession or Truth or Dare 😆
Polish Film follows lead Tomasz! Who i thought was great. If Miles Teller & Tom Holland had a Child lol.
The obsession with his Girl Cousin def gives you them creepy vibes. Then he goes on a wild spree on trying to impress her which leads him 2 deeper and deeper holes.
The things we do for love! But this type is fully sadistic or psychotic. After we learn of his Mother's death in the movie you feel empathy for Tomasz. But after his experiences with peers he just turns in2 an emotionless nutcase willing to fulfill his mission.
Please America do not remake this Film and ruin it lol.
Adú (2020)
Why couldn't Adu get his Bike Back 😔
Beautiful Film about a boy Adu. We get a glimpse of the ordeal these refugees have to go through in their suffering to past that fence for freedom.
The 3 seperate stories all intertwined nicely. From views behind & to the gate.So many universal themes in this Film from healing, forgiveness, compassion & sacrifice.
Although it had some flaws. I can easily forgive and truly appreciate this Directors work to spread the message of hope for these Refugees.
Ya no estoy aquí (2019)
Beautiful Film!
Thank You Mexico for this gem - Terkos 4 Life
The visuals are gorgeous n captured beautifully
This movie smoothly drifts through the journey of Lead Ulises. As the Film goes full circle. It's a tough lesson of hardship n survival mode.
The cast of Kids were great! Great natural talent n the make up n hairstyle was superrrr dope.
Lastly the Chinese chick was super annoying lol.
I'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020)
2 Sames Hehe
TBH I don't know how i feel about this Film still lol
Performances:
Jessie Buckley who I have seen on Chernobyl & Fargo was Great! Plemmons was great too! You just wanted to slap him for some of his lines as Mr Know It All. Toni Collete & Thewlis were solid as Parents. Spooky. 3/4 from the #Fargo series.
Story
This type of Film keeps throwing daggers at you via Dialogue & Symbolism. This def made me feel a type of way esp with the dialogue in the Car to & from the Parents house. Movie of self reflection, self doubt, your true self, communication etc.
Overall
Was super happy to get to the end. ThIs film was def a bumpy ride full of wild turns. Fave scenes were all in the Car. Def liked this Film because it was superrrr different to anything I watched in 2020.
Promising Young Woman (2020)
5 Parts
That 4th Act & 5th Act was like daaaaamn😬
Gr8 directing debut by Emerald Fennell. A very tough subject matter which she takes a unique route with comedy and a smart female score with the music.
Carey Mulligan ;) Solid Performance
Paris Hilton Stars are Blind 😂👌🏾
Nomadland (2020)
Not So Mad Land
Def felt like a National Geo doc with the Beautiful Cinematography Of West Coast to Midwest America.Also she captures the loneliness vibes of this lifestyle beautifully.
This movie makes u feel a type of way when you hit rock bottom after the Financial Crash n losing a Loved 1.
Beautiful film of how we cope through life In tough times and how we keep on going n keep moving forward.
Couldn't picture any other Actress other than Frances playing Fern. The snow scenes gave me Fargo vibes lol.
All Day and a Night (2020)
Break The Cycle
Product of my Own Environment POME
Decent flick about a broken family. Cycle repeats to the next Gen. Stereotypes & Bad Decisions all up in here. Seen this formula b4.
Jeffrey Wright had some strong scenes. But Yakya Abdul Mateen was the my main man here. Cannot wait to see him get larger lead roles. Ashton was nice.
Uncorked (2020)
Red Red Wine UB40
Great Score by Hitboy! The French tracks
Loved this Movie! Great performances by Athie & Vance. Funny cast n good laughs
Def a movie most can relate too. Tough Love from your Parents and learning to grow up and get you want!
Work It (2020)
Lisa Koshy!
Silly but Fun Movie! Disney type movie so no serious review lol. TBD7 🔥😂
Lisa Koshy is a Star 😍 Didn't know Ben Simmons younger bro was an Actor 😅 Jokes def a lookalike & an Aussie
The Midnight Sky (2020)
Neil DeGrasse Tyson Where You At?
Beautiful Visuals from 2049 I guess
A story about Climate Change? A story about regret? A story about Survival? Who knows
Fave 2 scenes were the music ridden being Tennessee Whiskey & Sweet Caroline. What's up with UK and that Caroline song? So annoying after the boxing fights lol. Still love Gypsy King tho
Back to the movie! I need a Neil Tyson breakdown please on the Science. Nice to see The Chi's Tiffany Boone in the Cast. Dialogue in the movie was a bit boring.
Small Axe: Lovers Rock (2020)
For the Lovers & Rockers
For the Lovers & Rockers ❤
Memory Lane to your very 1st high school or University Party! A whole Vibeeeee on this one! Dance
Anthems Galore! Def felt u were vibin at this Party! Goodtimes
The Silly Games & Kunta Kinte Dub scenes 🔥 🔥
Steve McQueen does it again with this intimate flashback
Small Axe: Mangrove (2020)
Fight The Power
Closing Time!
Deeper meaning to the word Mangrove on How the plant it is specialised in to survive in the most Extreme conditions. The is the backbone to the True Story of Caribbean community in the UK via 1960s.
This sad but also uplifting tale of immigrants in Notting Hill in 1968. No matter what colonialist country we refer to being USA UK South Africa Australia etc the story is Universal and ever Relevant in 2020. No spoilers
Marcus Kirby & Letetia Wright deliver there best work to date. Greatly directed piece by Steve McQueen who was able to deliver us a very real Setting.
Pieces of a Woman (2020)
Resonance
Martha is full of emotions from beginning to the end. What a very tough and tragic ordeal she had to go through.
Kirby delivers a brave broken performance of Martha. Burstyn delivers a great performance as Martha's mum very tough over protected mum who has early signs of dementia.
LaBeouf as Sean was a bit mixed. Not a miscast but more on how they wrote Sean's character. Typical Bloke but felt they gave him no layers which was Sad.
Loved The Score & Editing. Felt like this would b a Prequal to Netflix Hit Marriage Story last year but more darker.
Other notes! Apples n Bridges! That House was full depressing super messy smh. The cheating scenes meh! The amount of Smoking during super stressful times can relate
Overall not a Film I'll rewatch but it was a beautiful love letter from the Director.
Outside the Wire (2021)
Final Arc Disappointing! Still a Fun Shoot em up
Enjoyed the first 2 Thirds of the Movie until the End of the Bank scene. Then It dragged from there to the end. The way the movie ended was utterly weird how they had wrap up the movie.
When the roles flipped with the Good Cop Bad Cop u def felt a twist was in store. This Type of twist been played out a number of times. Disappointed! This movie def had potential but that ending just threw me off.
Mackie as Leo was Badazz. Idris another Talented British actor. Can't wait 😊 for Mackie now in The Falcon Series.
Sanyangeui sigan (2020)
Cinematography & Score were Great
Came here so solely for the Action, based on the Trailer. I was not expecting too much from the Plot. But I really enjoyed this movie for the Brotherhood of the main trio.
The score was perfect for this Film. Cinematography had some great shots. The Assassin gave me Terminator 2 vibes on how relentless he was lol. The shoot em up scenes were awesome.
Overall enjoyed don't wanna critic too much. There intention was to entertain and I surely was. Some reviews are too over the top expecting Oscar films every time.
Get your Popcorn Ready...
Minari (2020)
Family First
Every Immigrant family can relate when working very hard when sacrifices are made to build a great future for the family n kids.
This beautiful family is ready for a new start. The Parent leads were amazing. Such honesty in your roles and dialogue was real.
The Dad The Optomist Half Glass Full and The Mum The Realist Half Empty. The couple are on the rocks and reach boiling point.
The Grandma & David scenes are the pure comedy. Anne was the superglue of the fam. Def feels with every scene after the Grandmas prayer for David.
Def felt like a Christian Faith movie without the cringe affect but also felt very Pixar like with the Storyline. I personally loved the movie for the Family First values and the sacrifices we made.
What I took away with the Manari was that the Nana was there Guardian Angel. Her presence changed everyone of one the family of 4 ndirectly or directly. Minari has blessed them.
This movie is very similar to The Farewell in some themes. Overall big fan. Thank A24 another gem to the Collection
Sound of Metal (2019)
Powerful Film Darius Marder
Sick of the same formula of Hollywood Films over the past years Generic etc. This Film is the type of film that get no buzz but speaks Volumes from the Back.
I hope they get worthy Awards Buzz for the Direction. Screenplay. Editing. Sound mixing and Acting Performances by both Leads from Olivia and especially Riz Ahmed. Great mannerisms Great performance
Love the Journey of Ruben Stone. Not a Typical character but a man with flaws but who is always trying to fix the situation. A man who cards which have been given a severe twist of fate.
A man like any one else is trying to puzzle the current and future while dealing with a condition completely foreign to him. How his survival instincts enable to adapt with his ease on his situation until he is unable to a adapt with the final outcome.
The last 10 mins are beautiful. Signs of gratitude and Content by Ruben Characters. Truly love this film 1st time round. I will def rewatch b4 Awards Season ❤
Soul (2020)
Being Childlike!
This movie really hit the feels. Touching story about how easily we live our lives without smelling the roses or how easily external influences really affect the way we feel. How easily we are swayed in this Worldly life.
This movie is really Gospel about how being Child Like that we really get to see the great wonders of life. How the little things really brighten light into our lives. Having this outlook on life can really transform our perception and be a paradigm shift. Best things in life are free. To really soften our Hard hearts and truly love others and be kind.
Great film for all ages to start the year off. Time to reflect and move within our next season. Being a kiwi I was so proud of Terry Time . LuV Rachel House role she was brilliant. Joe and 22 luv luv
10/10
Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
I WISH To Unsee WW84! This is not the Way! Still love u Diana Prince
This movie was too Cringe the casting for Max Lord & Barbara was a bit off. Selection of Hans Zimmer for Original score def was an bad selection. Hans is great but he made the 80s so dull. Not saying they should of done a Guardians like with the 80s soundtrack but this movie didn't flow and just dragged. I love Gal Gadot she tried her best to save this movie but the Direction seemed rush and very poor. I hope they save this series with an Awesome WW part 3 with a new direction than the typical stuff pure example how Taika saved Thor with Ragnarok. Hey Max Lord this is not the way! Will still watch DC regardless of reviews. Just a big fan of Comic Blockbusters
The Way I See It (2020)
Souza Giving His Flowers to Obama
Such a Beautiful Biography of Potus Barack Obama
The Fruits of Kindness Compassion Empathy Loving & Graceful
Had no idea who Souza was b4 watching so did not know what to expect
But what I watched was a great documentation of Obamas Terms as a Man Father Friend Husband. Such a refreshing take and breath of fresh of air compared to other types of documentary heading in2 the 2020 Election.
Thank you Pete Souza 👍
The Devil All the Time (2020)
Funny Sad Sick Twisted Ride
I enjoyed the pace of this film. The soundtrack through the years probably helped that journey.
Great Cast! Did not who the Director was for this film but definitely felt some Coen Brother Vibes on film.
Alvins story through out was so sad. Def felt like breaking point near the final arc. Sure hope he enlisted our settled in Cinci
Not know this one was a book til after the movie. I would love to read the book
Big Marvel fan so def enjoyed Spider-Man n Buckys performance. Def felt an Easter egg when Bucky was burning the images of his sister in the bin. The background felt like the one where Capt America gets a hiding n him n Bucky 1st meet
Anyways back to the Film. Don't why this film is lowly rated by critics. Probably because the adaptation of the book.
The religion theme is heavy and fully real and not cringe like other movies with similar themes. These performances were so real.
I look forward to this Directors next piece. Loving Robert Patterson's work since In Time. Good to Alicia Silverstone back.
