Godzilla vs. Kong (2021)

I did NOT expect this..

[8/10 · 2 April 2021]

I love all things Kaiju, especially Godzilla. I also really like Kong so I was conflicted going into this as I didn't want either to lose. I tried to avoid most of the trailers and media coverage prior to viewing the film.

I absolutely hated the first 28 minutes of this film. The writing and acting just wasn't great. I didn't understand who this was written for. Surely not a fifty-three year old man. If I were twelve again, maybe.

At around minute 29, I became a twelve year old again.

I shouted and whooped loudly, grinning and laughing like a kid. From that moment forward the film faultered only a few times. It was the most spectacular action I've ever seen, even beating Pacific Rim. It was loud and extremely violent and the city destruction might be unparalleled. My heart was pounding out of my chest up with suspense until the end. I'm stunned by how happy this film made me feel. I think 7 is a fair score but I'm giving it a 9 because it's been almost an hour since I saw it and I'm STILL smiling.

Last and First Men (2020)

More art than movie

[7/10 · 19 June 2020]

Rarely did the visuals match the story and music so I essentially listened to this. The score was nearly perfect and the story was quite compelling. As art, I liked it quite well. As a film, it wasn't very good. 36 hours later I'm still thinking about it.
