The Lost City of Z (2016)
A dark and suspenseful drama combined with a real Indy Jones Adventure
First off, I didn't read the book. I actually never even saw a preview. (This is probably why the movie is doing so poorly) I saw the movie after reading the synopsis and decided it was something I would like to see. Since I didn't read the book, I had no expectations and was able to enjoy the movie for what it was-a great adventure/drama. It breaks my heart to see such a wonderful movie do so poorly in the box office. It shows that you really have to look sometimes to find the good stuff. It was a truly engrossing movie that felt immersive to see on the big screen. I enjoyed every minute of it. If you like a good drama, an amazing story, AND a great adventure film, this is something you will want to see.
Victor Frankenstein (2015)
Well-acted, dark and disturbing, fantastic!!!
Just wanted to give my two cents on a great movie that is not getting a lot of recognition. I went to the movie because I wanted to see James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe in a movie together. Not really because I like the story Frankenstein. I was pleasantly surprised by an interesting, intense, and very believable film. The cinematography was dark, sort of like the Moulin Rouge movie. It was just really good from start to finish. Clean acting and engrossing story. The scenes where they are bringing dead things back to life can be very graphic and disturbing at times. I thought this would have been a better release around Halloween with an R rating. But overall awesome movie. I liked it better than Bond, Mocking jay (both good), and the Good Dinosaur (not that good). I reflected on the movie long after I left the theater, which to me, means I saw a movie that got me thinking! Only reason I gave it a 9 is, well, a 10 is a tough score to get!
RED 2 (2013)
Sorry Bruce, not even you can save this incoherent garbage.
I saw the first one and thought, hey, the first one was "okay", maybe they fixed what was wrong and this might actually be a decent movie.
Boy was I wrong. This movie made very little sense from start to finish. It was one of those movies where you were sitting there wondering when it might possibly end and put us out of out misery...I wish I had gotten up for a refund rather than sitting there hoping this train wreck might turn itself around. Sadly, it never happened...
I mean c'mon Hollywood, do you really think movie goers want to see no character development, no storyline and just a bunch of misused star power? It makes me sad that such great talent is utterly wasted on junk like this. A note to all the big name actors in this film. Protect your reputation from bad writing! You don't want to lose everything you have worked for by staring stuff like this. Your acting was fine, it's the writing that was awful!
RED2 wins the award as the hands-down worst movie of the Summer in my book. I'm not going anywhere near a 3rd movie for sure! Blah!
