The Martian (2015)
Superb movie with some smaller annoying parts
This is an awesome movie, the story line is tantalizing, the acting is sweet, the science is amazing and everything is just awesome.
with a few exception, one notable for me is that it seems that he is eating something or drinking something the majority of times that we see him, that tend to be a bit annoying, its not like all you do on mars is eat, drink, and...well... eat more...
there was to much emphasis on food and eating and consumtion and to little on the fact he could have done some amazing discoveries on mars, it was not like he spent every waking moment from the time of the "accident" to the rescue on thinking of ways to survive, there was ample opportunity to do real science as well and there was a little to little emphasis on that.
Independence Day: Resurgence (2016)
A carbon copy of the original and other movies
Let me say first that as a movie, maybe it was entertaining.
Here are my griped....
1. Thje storyline was a carbon copy of the first movie, it was predictable, nothing new really happened.
2. The humor was not "spot on" as it was in the first movie and it lacked the spirit and the fun
3. the aliens all looked like something out of Alien movies, why not bring in someone with some imagination to do some original aliens.
4. it all felt crammed into a short period of time, the movie wanted so much but the time was so short so there was no real story developing.
5. to many lose ends, there was so many ripped story cords and loosy fitted patched together story lines that it really made no sense. whats the story between the young aviators? there was something that happened, but there seemed to have missed a section where it explain a little more than a 5 second movie clip.
Better storyline, more developing of the characters, better aliens and an unpredictable ending, that would made this movie a better one.
Warcraft (2016)
A masterpiece...
I been playing WOW since the Warcraft games, before it became world of Warcraft, and I got to say, I have missed the history part of the game and seeing this, gives me so much joy. It is a WOW experience in more ways than one.
Movie is awesome!! Characters are awesome!!! Given that "we" knew parts of the story line like Thrall being raised by humans etc and the horde roaming all over Azeroth, but this begins the story of HOW it all started and connects the dots to Karazan and Mediev.
Ï can't wait for the sequel, it is going to be so rewarding for a WOW player to see the story become life, and it was 2 hours of pure joy for the gamer, nerd, hard core raider and all parts.
It was well... nerd heaven....
Thank you!!
Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015)
A bit predictive but so awesome
I was thrilled to go to this new Star Wars, being a fan of JJ and the way he rebooted some other series and having seen Star Wars as a youngster, the original series.
Having said that, the storyline is fast paced, it is incredibly lots of details crammed into a relatively short period of time and you might have to see it once or twice to really fully appreciate every nuance of the movie.
The main characters are as funny as you'd expect and as dramatic and as colorful as you can dream of, and Harrison Ford is, well, he ruled, no other way to say it. I will not spoil what happens.
Although when sitting in the movie theater you kind of get the feeling that history repeats itself in a manner of speaking, and you get the feeling that you kind of know the way the next part is going to go, so you get comfortable and think "Yeah yeah, this is predictable" and then it turns out totally different.
This is an MUST see movie, many times, the scenery is awesome, space battles are a little few glorious big battles, but instead its fast paced 1v1 and it is awesome.
The storyline is made for at least a triplet of movies and we can't wait for the followup to see what JJ and the team got cooking.
It is interesting, it is compelling, it is riveting, it is awesome speed and it is STAR WARS.
Go see it, absolutely worth the money.
Code Black (2015)
Another must-see TV show
Code Black has moved me like no TV show has done in a LONG time, the drama, the intricate storyline, the characters, the constant beat of the hospital. It is a canvas so beautifully painted that Maestro Leonardo would have been proud to have painted it.
I can not say enough praise for this show and I am happy that we finally get another TV series about the hardworking nurses and doctors at our ER's.
This for me is a must-see, every week, and see the episodes time and time again cause you see something new every time you watch it and it is fulfilling and enjoyable.
Thank you for bringing this to us, I will cherish every moment.
A.D. The Bible Continues (2015)
Politically Correct remakes...
Since when was any of the apostles colored? and Mary Magdalene was colored? This was in Judea, the apostles was Jews, the likelihood of anyone of them being colored is somewhere along the line of me being a pope.
I am tired of politically correct movies, if yours going to make a movie or miniseries or whatever based on the lives of Jesus Christ or the gospel, then for the love of GOD, don't mix in PC crap into it.
Next you will see a Mohammed thats Japanese. Or perhaps Buddha thats white.
This series is so filled with inaccuracies that I was disgusted after the first 30 minutes and quit watching. do not waste your time with this.
Johan Falk: Slutet (2015)
The end...
This series is what Beck should have been exciting, realistic drama, love and action.
The last part flying start and run at maximum speed through the entire film. I thought it was clearly the best part of the latest works. And clearly a worthy ending.
When Patrick died in the last part, so went a little air out and be noticed that series is about to end but this was the action from start to end, and several times I had to rewind and check again not to miss the details.
Absolutely wonderful ending. and THANKS for this series, it has been the gold worth. !!
Terminator Genisys (2015)
It unexpectedly good
Out of all the different Terminator and ways it has been tossed around this movie was actually pretty good, the action was good, the dialog was good, it was actually funny at some point and the smile of the terminator is not something forgotten easy.
It is a watchable movie definitely and a good spin off and possible lead in several others, but it could also close the door. Depends on how you look at it.
either way, good movie, well worth the money spent.
all those who say this ruins their childhood movies etc need to learn that nowadays there is every good series is going to be "rebooted" and as for a reboot, this was and is a good good movie.
Jupiter Ascending (2015)
pretty entertaining
I thought this movie was entertaining, a little bit predictable, but entertaining nonetheless, it could be a pilot for a TV series, that would be awesome, where she battles the different families around the universe.
But nonetheless, I like this movie, it was fresh and it was entertaining. and it is never wrong to see Mila Kunis, she is a breath of fresh air.
It is not innovative or even new, but it was as I said, entertaining.
If I were to add anything more to this, it would be a prequel with the history of her predecessor or how her original person was, it would been nice to see the struggle of the earlier versions of the space empire families.
Witches of East End (2013)
why?
I thought that this would be a great series and until the first few minutes into season 1 I actually thought this would be new or new-ish.
what I did not expect was a carbon copy of the Charmed.
Lets see.... two sister.. (not 3) Lets see a book of mysteries (gotcha) Lets see... a black cat with strange necklace (yes, sirrr) oh and lets see, evil warlocks and magic creatures hunting them (you got it.)
Ummm, for the love of GOD, if you want the TV show Charmed back then call it for what it is, this wet noodle of a carbon copy is just shameful.
I for one does not intend to watch beyond the first 2 episodes of disaster.
