Senior Year (2022)
Entertaining, but annoyingly unrealistic
First of all, the one thing that bothered me the most in this movie was the fact that Tiffany decided to call her friends together to hurt Stephanie during a cheer stunt. No one said anything about it, even after Stephanie ended up in a 20 year coma? The way I am, I would have been crippled with fear and paranoia and I would have come clean.
Also, I was waiting for a while to see Tiffany get in trouble for her deed but Stephanie never even found out, which is crazy because there was footage of it happening. So everyone on the team kept that secret all those years and said nothing? Wow.
The most unbelievable part of the story was the fact that Stephanie fell into a coma and woke up after 20 YEARS and only had one major reaction to the time skip. She passed out in the hospital but that was it...like...I'm not sure that's how that would work. It was painful to watch Stephanie continue to thrive as though she did not miss 20 years of her life. And I wonder how her father, a man with a Blockbuster to Best Buy salary, was able to afford her medical bills for 20 years.
Another issue I had with this story was the fact that only Stephanie has an Australian accent. How? Didn't her entire family come from Australia? Just weird.
This movie was very entertaining and I loved the music choices, characters, and the hints dropped that pertain to current issues, but there was just so many glaring issues that I couldn't forget. Also, Blaine and Tiffany need to go on ahead and call it quits. I mean, even Blaine said they were no good for each other yet they're still together. How did they even get together in the first place? Is he there because she's holding him hostage? Possible blackmailing? I need to know more because there's just no way dude...
Blippi (2014)
My daughter loves it, I don't...
I love that this show has a lot of educational factors, such as Blippi going to museums or science centers. But the entire show is nothing but free advertisement fed to children. Every episode is basically Blippi persuading children that they should go to these places. Also, it is infuriating that he has to spell his name every five minutes. My daughter is only 2 years old and walks around the house spelling his name all day when she can't even spell her own name. And when she calls out letters, I get happy because I think she's trying to say the word, but it always ends with her saying "Blippi". So now she has associated chaining any letters together as saying his name. It's kind of creepy because him spelling/writing his name seems like a way of brainwashing children to only remember HIM and nothing he teaches. Why not teach children to spell/write other words? I try to help my daughter spell other things now because of this.
I do not doubt that general education is taught in this show, but it seems to be catered more toward little boys. Also, there was an episode where Blippi goes to a demolition derby and destroys a car. He spray paints the car and beats on it. There is even an episode where he is supposed to be washing a truck but instead, he splashes the vehicle with ketchup and mustard. Like, what is my daughter supposed to learn from that? Vandalism?
Unthinkable (2010)
Really?
The character "H" was allowed to do such terrible things in that room yet was allowed to come back in every time. I mean, he killed the terrorist's wife and no one batted an eye. And then the military run into a run that isn't even cleared like a bunch of dumb a**es. Like...really? That doesn't happen. Not to mention the soldier that pulled the picture off the wall, triggering a bomb at the mall. They literally said there could be traps everywhere. And in the end, the terrorists shoots himself (no big surprise there), there's the suspicion of a fourth bomb, but we don't know if the three bombs he mentioned were even real before the movie ended...waste of time...
Jeepers Creepers 3 (2017)
Why?
I grew up with the JC series and I have to say that this was horrible. Cheap, bad acting...you name it. The movie seemed as though it was shot in one day. Jeepers Creepers hunting still changes incredibly with him hunting in broad daylight...and that red shirt just threw me off...The CGI was horrible, which led me to believe that this movie was either made for the Syfy channel or straight to DVD release only. I feel bad for anyone that went to see this in theaters...I saw it online. I was so happy and waited so long just to be disappointed...
Oh yeah...the story line sucked, the characters dropped off the face of the planet and there was no development for them...and the movie was an overall bore. I'm not even sure when this movie takes place...is it in between the first and the second...or does it come after the second one? Where are the characters from the second one? Where is the guy that was waiting for JC to wake up? I'm so confused....and how come I still know nothing about JC or his past...?
The Square (2008)
Good...until the end...
The movie was so good, building up the suspense and leaving you sitting on the edge of your seat. The problem is...there were too many unexplained occurrences and unintelligible accents that I just couldn't deal with. I feel as though the Raymond's wife was built up as a potential suspect, which I think she could have been given the fact that she knew about her husbands affair but chose to say nothing. I honestly believed for a second that she was the blackmailer. But instead Ray's boss found the blackmailer...who happened to be a man I don't even remember being introduced in the movie? To add that, how did his boss and the only cop in town know about the blackmailing? Why did Ray bury Leonard if him dying on at the construction site was an accident? Why did Carla stand around during the gun fight at the end instead of grabbing her husband's gun? Nothing at the end made sense. And why did the poor dog have to die? Did no one even know or care that it was dead? Such a shame. Every death in this movie happened needlessly. Every person that died was innocent except Carla. If you like movies that build up perfectly but let you down in the end, then man....this is the perfect movie for you.
Deathgasm (2015)
I'm being nice for giving this a 4 star
I felt like this movie was concocted in the basement of a teenage stoner-rock group. So much gore...such crude jokes that didn't land...the acting was piss poor and there were characters who had life threatening injuries that suddenly healed in the next scene. Ridiculous waste of time. I would give this a 2 star but it did hold my interest, whether I want to admit it or not.
It Comes at Night (2017)
Not sure what was supposed to come...
As I watched and watched for the "it" to appear, I lost interest in the movie entirely. Maybe the "it" was supposed to be an intangible form...or something. I don't know. You'll constantly wait for it but may never really know what it is when it arrives.
I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House (2016)
Why?
This movie had a little promise at the beginning when it came to the monologue and such. But after that it was a steep decline. Too be honest, I could not focus solely on this movie and inevitably began searching clothing sites to buy time until the movie ended. The pace was crazy slow, nothing happened, not even a jump scare and the main character just always looks confused. And to top it off, she dies from fright...the ghost didn't have an intention to harm her, it just sort of stood there just as confused as the audience.
