Shin Gojira (2016)
Disappointing, but I enjoyed some parts.
The scenes with Godzilla; 10/10. Loved every minute with that lizard jack-ass, they were really entertaining, very well done, had great effects. I just loved it, so much. The scenes without Godzilla; 1/10....Do something, please. I'm so bored. This movie is WAY too long, and most of it is just some boring suits talking about how they're gonna kill Godzilla...Who considers that entertaining? Not me. Decent movie though, but still not worth your time.
Death Note (2017)
Why?
If you haven't seen Death Note (2006) it is in my opinion, not only the greatest anime of all time; but it is one of the best shows i've ever seen, period. And I didn't have high hopes for this movie seeing as how most anime-to-film adaptations fall flat on their face. But I decided to give it (somewhat of) a chance. And I watched it...I wish I didn't. This is beyond the worst film of the year, this is one of the worst films i've ever seen. Structurally it is the only movie off the top of my head that can be described as a disaster. That's all it is, a white-washed, made-for-money disaster with no artistic value. The things I like; nothing. The things I don't like; everything. The movie fails on every level, besides a decent voice performance by Willem Dafoe, everyone's acting in this movie is bad, like, really bad. The actor for Light is bad and over the top, I can't really blame his actor, Nat Wolff, they changed Light's character so much I don't think even HE knew what kind of a role he was supposed to be playing. Misa sucks in this movie, oh please excuse me I meant so say "Mia". They took away one of the most important parts of Mia's character, she's naive. In the anime she lacked wisdom or much reasonable judgment, and that's what made her interesting to watch, she was the yin to Light's yang, her having the Death Note is like giving a 5-year old girl the powers of a god, and the juxtaposition between her and Light; a clever, conniving killer, was fantastic and incredibly well done. Here she's basically a slutty bitch...Yay? I don't know who said it was a good idea to take a character like Amane Misa, and make her like Veronica from Riverdale (2017), but they need to be fired. I don't care if they're trying to feed their children, they need to be fired! Well at least Veronica has empathy and problems that make you feel bad for her. Now before I get to the absolute worst character in the film, let me talk about Ryuk, and although he may not have been my favourite character from the show, he was certainly the most entertaining. Ryuk is the best character in this film, but that's not saying a whole lot, seeing as how he has no freaking screen time and we never get to see him. It honestly boggles me that they take a beloved character like Ryuk and throughout the whole film, he has a screen time of, i'm gonna be generous and say 7 minutes. And we only get about 2 decent looks at him, but overall they didn't mess his character up too bad. But still, 7 minutes? And now the worst character probably ever: L. I. Hate. L in the movie. I absolutely loathe this interpretation, he's terrible, he's so freaking terrible, he ruins every scene he's in. Apparently there was a controversy surrounding his actor, Lakeith Stanfield, when he was first cast as L. Everybody calling the fans of the Original L racist, like "Oh, you don't like him cause he's black". So unless you're 5 years old or a bigot and don't like him cause he's black, screw you. I don't hate Keith cause he's black, i hate him cause he sucks as L. I've seen him act before in one of the best films of the year so far Get Out. Even though it was a minor role, I think he did as awesome a job as anyone else in that movie. He was good...Not here. To be quite honest, I do have a problem with the casting, but like I said it's not because he's black...It's because he's too, damn, old. Lakeith Stanfield is 26 years old, that may seem like a kid to a 90-year old. But to me, he's an adult. And an adult should not play L, and if you're gonna get an adult, at least get someone who looks young. Cause do you know how odd (and kind of creepy) it is to watch this film, and have characters say lines like "You're younger then I thought you'd be". It's like making a Steven Universe Film and casting Jack Nicholson as Steven. But everyone treats him like he's 12. It's creepy. And not only does Keith not fit L's character at all, his acting is just terrible. I'm sorry, I don't know if you tried...Or cared, but your acting sucks. OK, the acting and the casting is weak. Simple enough, anything else? Yes. I don't know how to explain this but, the movie feels really short. This movie is 100 minutes and it feels like 30. The people reading this will know what i'm talking about. The pacing is just sonic speed. And not in a good way. They spend no time developing character and that makes every scene feel pointless and when every scene is pointless i'm gonna forget about them and when I forget about them that means I'm not experiencing all your movie has to offer hence, you've made a bad movie. Plus every scene for me felt like it ranged from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. I was honestly shocked with how little character scenes there were, and by the end of it I was like "was that a trailer or something?". The pacing and directing is bad, is there anything else? Not really, but if i'm giving a fair review there was one thing I liked. The score was good, it reminded me of the music from the show and that was cool. But besides that, this movie was a total disaster and most people hated it. Including myself. This was my review and I hope you hated it.
Kiss x sis (2010)
Insermountably disturbing but surprisingly entertaining.
I watched this a while ago and I constantly cringed at the insane amount of incest, and incest enforcement, but I found myself surprisingly engaged. I have no idea but there was just something about the story that reeled me in (it certainly wasn't the incest). The animation was fine for anime standards, the voice acting was good, it was odd how nothing really stood out as great but there was something keeping me watching, I don't know. I don't know if I can recommend this show, I guess if you're not too disturbed by the concept you can check it out. Maybe you'll get sucked in like I did.
Hacksaw Ridge (2016)
The definition of cheesy.
The movie, is INCREDIBLY cheesy, the effects aren't very good, the girlfriend character is flat, Sam Worthington was kind of annoying, Vince Vaughn was a terrible choice to play a drill sergeant, there is quite a few cheesy lines, and the story was paper thin. Now those were the bad things, lemme go over the great things, Andrew Garfield is pretty good in it, not really best actor worthy, but still really good! Hugo Weaving was incredible in it, for what 2 seconds he was given, and the war scenes are really well directed, and really brutal, I think the first half isn't all the great, but once the war kicks in, it's pretty good.
Ralphthemoviemaker: Best & Worst Movies of 2016 (2017)
Good video
I like this video, it was funny, although i disagree with his thoughts on Hell Or High Water (2016) but i do agree with him when he said the movie could've used a little bit more of a visual flare to it. I agree the movie looked kind of boring even though it was supposed to be a gritty western.
Loving (2016)
Grossly overrated & very unimpressive
It's not really bad, if i can think of any words i would use to describe it's fine. Doesn't really do anything bad, doesn't really do anything great, it's just fine. The problem is the movie is just really boring, i checked my phone at certain points (don't worry, i wasn't in the theater) and it was just boring. Ruth Negga was good, but she wasn't like, amazing. I didn't like Noel Edgerton, i didn't like how he mumbled all of his lines, and that he had pretty much the same face throughout the entire film, i can admit his mumbling added to the realism, didn't make for an entertaining movie though. They did a pretty bad job at making me care for the characters and helping me understand their relationship. The movie literally opens with Ruth Negga telling her boyfriend she's pregnant, so they just throw us into this relationship without any semblance of thought or effort. It was decently informative, but it definitely wasn't entertaining, and i would never watch it again. The movie lacks an amount of human emotion, most characters don't even smile throughout the film and they just feel like robots, you don't understand why anyone does what they do, they just do it cause the script says so. The fact that this was nominated for best actress in a leading role and Arrival wasn't is freaking bull crap.
Whiplash (2014)
Why I think this is the best film of 2014
Now I know a lot of people are gonna disagree with me on this, but I think that this is the best film of 2014 (and Birdman is not) Why? I feel like I got more out of this film, I thought it had a much more clever script, and this seems like the kind of movie that can inspire people with the smallest of hopes. Don't get me wrong, I think Birdman is a 10/10, but this was more of a 10/10 I suppose, with Birdman I well definitely give credit where credit is due, like the acting and cinematography were top notch, it's amazing how it was done in one shot (i know it actually wasn't, you don't have to tell me) But I feel like Whiplash will accompany my thoughts long after seeing it, just cause of how complex it is, maybe I didn't understand Birdman, and when I do I'll change my mind, right now this is not the case. Whiplash is amazing
