Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
BEST Spider-Man Movie to Date!
Absolutely incredible. Call me a sucker for cell shading, but I think the art direction, along with the music, was visually stunning. The story was... typical of Spider-Man. Honestly though, it didn't deter the movie from being engaging, funny, sad, and creative in it's own sense.
I love the different approach the movie took on Spider-Man's villains. Until now, I always thought Spidey's villains were boring. The slightly reimagined villains were refreshing to say the least.
While DC's animated movies have always been great. Marvel animated movies, on the other hand, have never been good. Into the Spider-Verse is, without a doubt, the best Spider Man, the best animated, and one of the best Marvel movies I've watched to date.
It's a must watch for any comic book/superhero fan.
Doragon Bôru Sûpâ Burorî (2018)
Unbelievably disappointing!
Let me start by stating that I'm a HUGE Dragon Ball fan! So needless to say, I was very excited about this movie, but it absolutely did not live up to my expectations. The plot was definitely better and made more sense than the original and the action was INCREDIBLE, but outside of that, the movie was...... dumb. They had so many opportunities to make the movie interesting, but they chose to cut corners and go with the most stereotypical plots. And the music. My God, the music was hysterical. In a bad way. At first you don't notice it, but once you get into the real action it does this hilarious Deadpool 2 thing where they sing "Broly" in an epic manner, but the biggest difference between DP2 and Broly is that DP2 intentionally made it funny, but DBS tried to make it serious and it turned out to be one of the things I laughed at the loudest. And the end.... Let's just say, I see what they plan on doing, but it was the most cop out way to end it. All in all, the movie is not good. Go into it with low expectations and maybe you'll enjoy it, but the action scenes and animation were it's only saving grace.
Brüno (2009)
Whatsevuh!
**spoilers** most of my spoilers are from trailers, but i go into a little more detail with it.
let me start off by saying that this movie made me feel unbelievably sleazy. i felt the need to shower multiple times. I can handle strange things (example: 2 Girls One Cup) but i swear this may have been worse but oddly.... in a funny way. overall the movie definitely had some value to it. it showed how some people can be truly ugly inside no matter who they were and where their values lied but like i said, in an odd sort of way. it was definitely funny but to a point. the movie tended to make you feel bad for laughing but for the most part it was worth watching. but if you cringed while watching Borat.... you may wanna rethink watching Bruno.
i'd give it a 7/10
Dragonball Evolution (2009)
Kamehame... superman?
---SPOILERS--- but its a must read. for fans and new comers. you may regret not reading this. ---SPOILERS---
I'm choosing not to rate this movie because not only was it God awful, but it somewhat insulted my intelligence. ESPECIALLY from a fans perspective. I brought a friend to watch the movie who has never watched the cartoon/ read the books to get a different view. and he had the very same reactions towards the movie. From his perspective, the movie was sloppy, the way they explained everything in the movie was very vague and unbelievably confusing. Who's piccolo, why does he want to take over the world? Whats the point of him getting the dragonballs? and whats the connection between goku and the dragonballs (this even confused me) the movie had absolutely no value or point to it, just mindless fighting and senseless conversations. I know people who think this movie is actually good are going to complain to the fans that akira allowed it. Yes, akira allowed the PRODUCTION of the movie, it doesn't mean he allowed them to murder and butcher the TRUE storyline of Dragonball. People are also saying "Well... what do you want? they tried to turn the entire piccolo saga into one movie" Well, they did a really bad job doing it. If they were to do this, they should have followed the original storyline A LOT better. I can easily get over how the characters look in the movie (they're just adapting to modern day no big deal), but the way they portrayed their characters were horrible. To a fan, you can tell they're trying to act like the characters from the anime, but you can also tell that they failed miserably. But from the perspective of a new comer, it looks like terrible acting. As the fans are aware, goku's main technique is the Kamehameha... the fan should also be aware that the kamehameha is done standing still and Goku has NEVER done it while flying. Lets just say the movie made him look like a blue superman when he does the kamehameha. The main characters were introduced into the movie TERRIBLY. The fans are also aware how Grandpa Gohan died... well, thats not how he dies in the movie.
plain and simple. if you're a fan, watch it so you know what they've done to one of the greatest childhood shows. and if you're a new comer... you were warned. this movie is a waste of money and time unless you're sneaking into the movie.
Friday the 13th (2009)
2 Words, Killing Spree!
First things first. For a horror re-make involving Michael Bay, its honestly not bad. Definitely better than the Halloween remake. but this is still your typical thriller/ horror. Lots of blood, killing, and nudity. the opening sequence was simply brilliant. There are a lot of unnecessary scenes, but it keeps you guessing (example: how they're going to die) throughout the entire movie. Friday the 13th will keep your heart pounding.... literally. (if you have a heart condition i wouldn't recommend watching this) The movie has a decent back story to it, only problem was it seemed like there wasn't much thought put into it. so if you're a fan of the original Friday the 13th, i'd say make time to watch this one, but overall i would give it a 6.5 possibly 7.
