Wednesday (2022)
Great for being Netflix
I loved that the creator decided to bring the Adams family back to life, especially Wednesday who was captured perfectly by Jenna Ortega, in my opinion. But I'm still not as amazed by this as most here seem to be. I found the relationships and characters quite badly written. It seems incredibly unbelievable that Wednesday would have such many people hounding after her when the character is built on bitterness, a quite unlikable personality trait. It also might just be me, but I felt as Wednesday would be more into girls then boys, speaking romantically. I do think that this story easily could fit into a movie, and after a couple of episodes I was honestly waiting for it to end. Lastly, I found the plot quite predictable. I mean, why would the red-headed teacher be so present in all of the episodes if she didn't have a bigger role. The character was also way too obvious with the fact that she was "different".
But after all it was enjoyable, mostly for Jenna Ortega, but mysteries are always nice anyways.
Feed (2022)
Underwhelming and too much
The concept and storyline in the movie was alright, the acting as well. I also found the balance between jump-scares and overall creepiness good. But after 80% of the movie, the plot took such an awful turn and everything until that point was also suddenly destroyed by this. It got too much and I felt like the creator wanted to cram in every single idea in the last ten minutes, even though it would have been so much better and more creepy if he'd just end beforehand. The characters where also quite stereotypical and there was not a single character development. The dialogue was also boring.
At the other hand, for Joakim Lundell, I think this is a great accomplishment. Even though I'm not too familiar with him, I almost feel proud. And you also have to keep in mind that this was a debut from someone who haven't done film before.
But I still hated this movie and I wouldn't recommend it.
Before Sunrise (1995)
Best romance I've ever seen
I absolutely adored this film. There's a good amount of romance movies out there, but I find that most of them seem to lack the realness because they do not contain awkward moments. In the first half of Before Sunrise, we found the characters fumbling over how to act. In one particular scene, the couple was traveling by tram when Jesse tried to put Celine's hair behind her ear but she moved too fast and he imminently had to cancel his act. And also the fact that they meet a couple of amateur actors who invites them to a play. The story is so incredibly real and believable.
Dialoge is also interesting and seem very believable. For example, when Jesse brings up a thought he had about reincarnation, where he instantly apologize to Celine if hes being confusing.
I would recommend this movie for anyone. It's one of my absolute favorites.
