Scream (2022)
True fans - don't see this
First of all the writing is horrible! Wes craven would be rolling in his grave right now. How could Billy Loomis possibly have a kid?! He and Sydney were virgins in the very first movie AND syd kills him. He had no time to procreate! The very first scream drives that home for us enough! So why is this movie centered around "billy loomis' daughter"?! The writers, once again got lazy AF and forgot what movie they were writing for. The rest is so dumb I don't even remember it because I fell asleep. Don't waste your time or money seeing this film, it doesn't do Wes craven justice. And oh yeah, just cuz you name a character after him and throw his name around 18 different times in the movie doesn't mean you're paying homage to him. Learn how to write a real script and do him justice that way. Better yet, I'll write the script and do it better than you hollywood idiots did.
30 Rock: Winter Madness (2010)
Great except for Julianne Moore's horrible accent
Everyone in this episode is so on point, and would normally get my rating a 10/10, esp Tracy Morgan, but Julianne Moore's horribly fake Boston accent ruins it. I love Julianne Moore too, which makes it even harder to watch her scenes and sit through every time she speaks, without cringing and asking, "whyyyyy jules, you vondruke!"
The Nevers (2021)
Great show until the season finale
I literally lived for this show until tonight's episode aired. Sooo lame... lost all its magic. This is what happens when a good story teller abandons the job before it's finished.. great job, joss whendon. You let us all down. Hated the last episode. The sci-fi future, alien crap?! Really? I mean really??? Seen it already! I thought you were going to bring something new and original and exciting. No one wants a sigourney weaver remake!!! You suck and the show sucks. Come on where is the fire?!
The Queen's Gambit (2020)
Hollywood take notes
The show is awesome!! We need more shows and movies with the depth, intelligence, character, and story telling like The Queens Gambit, instead of half baked remakes and sequels... if you're looking for an emotional story about a woman succeeding in a man's world, without the liberal propaganda of today being pushed in your face, watch this show! I finished it in one day and wanted more!
Take notes Hollywood... less Witches (2020) and more Gambit!!!
Ben Is Back (2018)
Only watched it because it had Julia Roberts
And there was nothing better on. She deserved a much better script. Movie was so disappointing and flat. What a waste of talent, money, and time...
I know it's a spoiler warning, but there's really nothing to spoil, mother chases junky son around town, as he chases his post dog, finds it, does one last drug run, and then gets high after 77 days of being clean. No redemption, no catharsis, no lesson learned, and just a flat ending.
A Simple Favor (2018)
Stupidest movie ever
Just plain dumb. Please Hollywood, please, don't make anymore movies where you insult our intelligence and insult the brilliant actors you hire to play in these movies. Just ughhh.
Tomb Raider (2018)
Don't waste your time - stick with the Angelina Jolie versions
It should go without saying but then again millions of dollars went in to making this disaster of a movie so the logic has already been tossed out with the baby AND the bath water. This is your typical example of what happens when Hollywood doesn't learn from its mistakes, knows it's materials, or it's audience. Why would you ever think rebooting this franchise would ever work? First off there's the casting - none of the actors have any chemistry, and are flatter than paper. The lead actress is pretty, but nowhere near the standards of portraying Lara Croft - hello, the original was played by Angelina Jolie for crying out loud, and she nailed it, so why do you think casting an average looking, unknown female lead would do this role justice?!
The writing is terrible, the plot of the film was so dense that I was completely disillusioned through the entire film. Just save yourself the time and watch the trailer once, and bam you've seen pretty much everything in less than a third of the films actual run time. Also, this film's version of Lara Croft is a complete loser. No fighting skills, no emotional drive, definitely no personality or sense of humor. Everything was forced in all the wrong ways and places. Bad jokes and even worse dialog throughout the entire film. One of the best things about the original Lara Croft is that Angelina Jolie can pull off comedy and still remain a bad ass, gun slinging b*tch. This version of Lara wasn't even pitiful - I tried to like her, I really really did, but she's the epitome of an oxymoron. Dumb enough to pawn what's "most valuable" to her for less than 10k when she's just got done accepting her inheritance of billions of dollars (which she basically had to have a gun to her head to do in the first place).
I could go on and on about this mess of a movie, but why bother? Hollywood is only going to keep making these horrendous movies as long as people keep paying to see them. Here's a tip, watch this film on a steaming service (not even Redbox) - some platform you already pay for so you can justify wasting your time for free. Or better yet, save a few hours and just watch the trailer on YouTube, trust me I'm doing you a favor. The only reason I bothered sitting through this movie is because it helped make homework easier to get through, sad but true.
Hollywood, you remember the saying "those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it"? Or what about the old adage, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"? LEARN FROM PADT FAILURES - stop ruining our favorite movies and tv shows. No you didn't make this version of Lara Croft a better feminist icon - she already was one and instead you made her weak and dumb.
Venom (2018)
Almost Perfect
First off I'd like to say, that I have read most of the normal people reviews (not the professional reviews, because honestly they get paid to write whatever they want... which means they can watch a movie that in all reality sucks, and write the best review ever and make the same amount of money as they would if they said the movie sucked...) I'm not making a dime for writing this review. I'm just a film major, who has seen a great amount of both classic and modern films that have been unfairly dissed and unfortunately disregarded because some pretentious and arrogant European "director" was attached to another project that he abhorrently butchered without regard or care, simply because he could; because he was nameless he could fail and no one would notice and he could win and everyone would see: this is the modern day con artist of film. It's been done so many times in both the marvel and dc universes. These lame, money hungry opportunist directors, posing as visionaries, offering less than mediocre "inside jokes" for every superhero film imagined, is why the marvel and dc universe franchises are failing miserably. Newsflash, you DF: Thor Ragnarok was horrible. Infinity wars was detestable. You guys suck! And your making millions off of me?! Hell no! but everyone is too politically correct and afraid to say that he ruined and perfectly good film, because he or she (again to be "politically correct" aka brainwashed aka dumb, restarted, etc) wanted to win an award and add a million $$ to his or her or its net worth (for liberals who are wanting to be such amazing social justice ambassadors, they sure are missing their targeted audience completely, like everything else they screw up!) please ignore liberal stupidity and forget Obama was ever imagined or created. Approach film the way it was designed to, with even an iota of intelligence and we will take you seriously. Until then you will not make a dime at the box office because I will make it my personal mission to destroy your entire credibility and voice, like your best friend George Soros has done
10x10 (2018)
Just plain dumb
Ok so guy kidnaps girl in BROAD DAYLIGHT... only person in the parking lot is a random dude with headphones on... what?? Guy brings girl to his home where he spent wayyy too much money fixing up to be a prison and throws her in a 10x10 padded SOUND PROOF cell. Girl spends more time screaming (which she knows no one will hear her) and clawing at a broken piece of tile (how her finger nails didn't fall off is purely inconceivable)... guy demands to know her name (by this point in the film I figured out everything the plot was based on - she's hiding a secret - secret is she or her family had something to do with the death of one of his loved ones) after demanding to know her name so many times he finally puts a gun to her head and that's when my theories are proven right. She's a religious nut job who took the bike out of context after finding out her dad cheated on her mom and killed her kidnappers dying wife for cheating on him. She's in the wrong obviously so a huge fight ensures. She deserves to die simply for the fact that she had 1 million chances to escape her captivity and instead stayed around to play in her own blood. Guy turns out to be the "hero" but is really no better than she is, because who gets away with kidnapping someone regardless of what they did? Oh and his child isn't even is.. shocker. Come on Hollywood, I'm a freakin film major and can write WAY better scripts than this, give me a shot instead of wasting opportunity on ridiculous idiocy... is like a freaking "paycheck" too thanks!
