Halo: Reach (2024)
Season 2 suck
I really liked season 1 even though it has it's flaws but it's so bad now...
The writing is so bad in this episode it's insane. Chief stops when Reach is sieged by the covenant to listen to an old woman and play therapy ? In what kind of dumb logic do you make the most valuable asset lose it's time listening to an old woman when the entire planet is getting slaughtered by the enemy is beyond me... They have zero vision. This type of scene is way too frequent !
There is still no armor into play. I don't need to see Chief 100% of the time with his helmet but when Spartans are 10% of the time in armor what the hell is going on ? Basically what we are seeing is Spartans that are never ready for combat.
Chief not looking great, and so are the Spartans... They are getting their ass whooped, and they made them look weak. I understand they can't always win, but do they know Spartans are the most powerful tool Humans got ? Doesn't seem like it. Maybe it's because action scenes requires to much money to create.
First time we see the mighty Scorpion into the series and you know what ? We can't even see it, they are blurring almost all action scenes ! They could have used this opportunity to make a crazy good looking scene with badass music but no, they don't want to show any of it, it cost too much !
They also killed great characters way too soon and in ways that made them look weak. I guess because it's more cost effective ? They don't understand what Spartans represent, they need to die heroically, or looking badass... not like this.
I could go on and on for paragraphs. That's honestly sad because I really enjoyed the first season. I feel like the vision of the IP is destroyed in season 2. What a shame.
Mulan (2020)
Amazing movie !
I just dont understand the childish ignorants who put 1 out of 10... People are getting ridiculous and complain about everything in life. This was a great movie. I did see the first Mulan when I was and kid and this isnt a remake. This one is its own movie and has is own character. Get over it. If people keep spitting on Disney for no reason then they will just cut the production on the movie production. People are becoming ungrateful... are living like kings and have zero respect and gratitude. I hope you dont treat you close ones like that.
Anyways, awesome movie ! I loved every moment of it. Beautiful vivid colors and alot of attention to small details, which looked incredebly good in 4k HDR. Costumes were amazing and items such as weapons were very well made. Special effects were also very well done and I think it was just the right amount. Sometimes this genra of movie contains a littlebit too much of it but not this one. Also, characters are deep, they evolve through the story. I think the actors were fantastic. The main actors really made me feel their emotions. There is also a great sense of camadery in the platoon. It also contains the right amount of humor to give you a good laft every now and then. The 2 main antagonist are very different one from the other. One is intriguing and makes us feel empathy for her situation once we get to know her. She is a Pretty good Antagonist in my opinion. But the other one is kind of weak and could have been written better. Thats my only negative.
So overall my experience was great. I had a very good time watching the movie and would definetely recommend it to my family and friends !
The Mandalorian: Chapter 15: The Believer (2020)
BEST STAR WARS content I have seen since The Empire Strike Back !!!!
OH, MY, GOD !!!
How can I describe what I just saw ? This is... truly the best Star Wars content I have seen since the Empire Strike Back 40 years ago ! I just watched the episode and I still have chills, my emotions have peaked at a point I didnt even know were possible !! I cant even remember the last time I was that excited after watching any movie or TV show.
The only words that can respect the quality of episode 15 The Believer are : ABOVE PERFECT !!
I will keep it short, everything got me hooked to the end and when it finished I just wanted more and more ! Every moment watching this, I was blown away by how good and amazing it was. The best, simply the best Star Wars we had in decades. I have no Tattoos but if I had to get one, it would be : The Believer
Now I am gonna go watch it again. Happy episode everyone !!
The Mandalorian: Chapter 9: The Marshal (2020)
Huge disappointment, please read review
Im a huge fan of season 1. But I have to say, epsiode 1 of season 2 (Chapter 9 : The Marshal) is a huge disappointment for me. Please read the entire explanation below.
So first of all, this episode contains zero intrigue or interesting dialogues. I just couldnt get hooked. I also felt like the characters had no souls or deepness. The intrigue should have been much more present.
Also they are putting Mando in situations that makes absolutely zero sense for him. Like at the begining of the episode when Mando gets into a ghetto bar with the child, which led them directly into a trap... Like, why would he bring the child in such a dangerous place if he knew for a fact it was a trap ? This simply doesnt work with the character. It makes him look careless and ignorant, which is exactly the opposite of the entire season 1 (protecting the child at all cost). I understand that he brings the child almost everywhere he goes, but at least they should have made him look like he was surprised about the situation of being ambushed... Dont make him look like he planned to be trapped into an ambush with the kid, it doesnt work with the character and his main purpose.
So further in the episode, Mando gets to Tatooine to find the Mandalorian that was supposedly able to help him and the kid find his relatives.The incoherence is that 20 seconds after he finds him (the Marshal), he orders him to remove his armor, otherwise he would make him...Even though Marshal just told him he got the armor from the Jawas, hes prepared to kill the man. Now remember, Mando is the one looking for him this whole time to seek his help... This makes absolutely zero credebility and made Mando looks like a brainless idiot who is forgetting his main objective. And again, the kid was right next to him... Lets just say that up to this point Mando doesnt help the kids survival chances.
There is also notable errors that shouldnt be present in a triple A series from Disney. Like the moment when Mando and the Marshal are traveling through the desert on their speeders. The Marshal is literally whispering his story to Mando for minutes, like they were both walking in quiet woods... The thing is, they are on high speed speeders, in an super windy desert of sand and Mando also have an Helmet... Like, does nobody at Disney noticed it didnt made sense for Marshal to talk this low ? Please go watch that scene again if you didnt noticed. Also in the same scene, the Marshal didnt even wear glasses for the trip even though there is more sand in the air then there is oxygen.
Lastly in the final fight, Mando (supposedly one of the best assassins) makes the super brilliant decision to willingly let himself being eat by the colossal sand Beast, to ensure that the huge Bantha alone wasnt a good enough bait of food. But of course with Mando included, the sand Beast wasnt gonna let that chance of a much more delicious snack slipped away... My point is, maybe the "real" reaction of Mando (a top assassin) would have been to avoid the risk of being eaten alive and evade the sand Beast mouth with his Jetpack...This would have done the exact same outcome with the explosives and made him look much more credible.
Also, there was no intrigue from the main story in the entire episode and no character development whatsoever. For all those reasons named above, I am obliged to give this episode 3 out of 10 as I am deeply disappointed. This is coming from a huge season 1 fan. I really hope the next episodes of the season 2 will bring more.
