Life in a Year (2020)
2/10
Didn't like the characters, they were 2D and forced (Ex.: One friend used to be fat and the other was insecure, that's literally all there was to them).
Many things were poorly/never explained (Ex.: Not once did they talk about the dad's work/life, so all his discipline/sacrifice stuff falls flat).
All the rap stuff was cringe and unbelievable. Not once the movie made me think he actually had any talent or that he really liked music and rapping.
Unbelievable stuff: Dumb fight with the security guy, he shoplifts like its nothing (in the U. S.), they break into a hotel and it's never mentioned again, girl is dying but lives her life normally...
Acting is often bad, especially when the script makes the characters do out-of-character extreme stuff, like getting mad for no reason, breaking stuff, yelling...
Ending is terrible, the whole "message on the radio" thing couldn't be more forced and unbelievable.
It felt like they couldn't decide if they wanted a romance or a sad love story, so they did half half and it got real messy.
The Legend of Korra: The Southern Lights (2013)
Dumb
So you are telling me that Korra's father had a previous quite alarming encounter with the spirits and he still acts wrongly with them? He didn't learn anything from his banishment?
Just bad writting all around, from the set up, to the new characters and their 1D conflicts, and finally the empty and anticlimactic resolution.
Kubo and the Two Strings (2016)
Beautiful movie, bad script
I could write more and better, but I think what I wrote here is already enough to prove this movie is bad.
Reasons:
1. The villains, the two aunts and the grandpa, have very inconsistent motives that kept changing throughout the movie.
Sometimes they want to kill Kubo. Others they want his eyes. Others they just want to help him get to heaven so their family can be reunited.
At one point Kubo's mother says her father's motive is that he fears humans could overthrow him, what does that have to do with his grandson?
Later the Moon King also justifies his actions by saying that he hates humanity and claiming that our existence is miserable and painful. Again, what does this have to do with anything?
2. The world construction is poor.
The villains have no backgrounds, it is never explained to us what they really are, if they are gods, or stars, or spirits, or idk what.
We never get to understand neither of the character's powers. How they work and what they can do. There is one scene where Kubo briefly loses control of his powers, but that is never mentioned again in the movie. It is also said that he is growing stronger, but we are not told why or what this growth means (Ex.: Will he be able to control more objects and materials now? Or only more quantity of the same ones?).
Why is the armor important again? Kubo didn't become more powerful or got any special abilities after he attained it.
3. Many things are brought up but never explained or fully realized. (Ex.: Why is his mother sick? Or Why is Hanzo a bug, wasn't he killed?)
4. The paper Hanzo that comes alive without explanation takes them correctly to 2 of the 3 pieces of the armor, but instead of listening to it for the 3rd piece they instead follow a random old man Kubo sees in a dream, kinda dumb don't u think?
5. The adventure is badly explained and we never get to really feel the stakes in play until too late in the movie. This happens because we don't understand the villains powers and motivations.
Why does the monkey pretends it isn't Kubo's mom? So he wouldn't feel bad once she was gone? He was thinking she was dead at the time, this seems way worst don't it?
Why was the giant skeleton alive until they took the blade from its head? I thought it was the "unbreakable sword", not the "bring things to live sword". In this same fight the skeleton has many swords nailed in its head, but how did they get there if they all break when the characters try to use them to pierce the skeleton?
Why does the moon king have Kubo's eye at the end when he becomes a human, but not when he is a spirit being (or whatever he is)? Why does the moon king become a human? Why can he transform into that centipede thing but his offspring can't change form?
Bo Burnham: Inside (2021)
Pessimism about the future and wokeness, can't stand these.
It could be the best comedy special ever made (and it is far from being, since there is no comedy in it), nothing would make up for the gloom atmosphere and terrible propaganda underlying the "jokes".
Eighth Grade (2018)
A movie being accurate and relatable isn't enough
A movie being accurate and relatable isn't enough. Every minute until I gave up watching this waste was painful, boring, cringe and awkward.
The King of Staten Island (2020)
Stop indorsing the use of excuses to justify one's failure.
How can one watch this movie and not hate it's protagonist and the message it tries to pass? The movie presents us with a complete loser, good for nothing, that only weights on everybody around him, and then proceeds to try making us like him or feel pity for him. Stop indorsing the use of excuses to justify one's failure. That's the worse life advice you can give somebody.
Twist (2021)
The UK police is a joke lol.
The UK police is such a joke that they even made a whole movie only possible because of their incompetence. Also, terrible plot and acting.
Run Hide Fight (2020)
Good one
8/10, but I had to give it a 10 because you know, f the patriarchy or whatever.
All the Bright Places (2020)
It would have been the perfect movie
Why did they make it end like that. Movies are supposed to inspire us, make us hopeful of a better future and that good things can happen. This movie was sooo good, but I really disapprove the ending.
