Shôgun (2024)
Amazing
It's difficult nowadays to have good, not focused on political correctness, history. I'm honestly overwhelmed by this. I just finished it and I adored it. I've learnt a lot from the ancient samurai I knew very little about. It's weird the way it touched me. The battle between the value of life and the value of honour. The certain doom of some characters that you know will die but hope to the last minute because usually on tv shows the characters you like survive. This is not the case. It's almost as if there is a truth behind this story. I've read that the struggle and the war after a certain Taiko died led to a shogunate and it is real. But, even though the characters are not, and it's a remake of a series (I haven't watched) the realness of the mentality and samurai culture is there. I feel like I've been hit by a truck honestly. I will learn more about this time and the lives of the people that lived it.
I really enjoyed experiencing something from another culture. This is a fantastic example of how you can have a story about other cultures without having to remove white skinned characters for "inclusion" and changing plots to be "politically correct".
I loved this. Won't forget it anytime soon. Great job FX.
Oppenheimer (2023)
I dont know what to say...
I am now relistening to the soundtrack on Spotify and it just overwhelmed me with emotion. I absolutely loved the movie, the intensity, the fascination, the contrast between curiosity and ambition and interest in how the universe works vs the realisation of the monster they've created. It really is incredible how this inner agony has been portrayed and honestly I've never been let down by Nolan. I'm a huge fan. Tenet was the least good for me tbh. But what a come back... I watched it on IMAX and as soon as it ended I literally thought "I have to watch this again". 3 hours felt like 30 minutes. Very fast paced which made the political side of it seem not so boring. I also enjoyed the fact that it was 2 stories wrapped into one. On the one hand we get the feelings inside cylians character (btw awesome work, Oscar worthy for me) and the other, the more political and "fame" side of Oppenheimer's struggle when he was let down and discarded by he's own country that he loved. I adored it, already one of my all time favourites. The cinematography is absolutely ridiculous. The soundtrack is majestic and disturbing at the same time. I honestly thought this was a masterpiece.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023)
Finally a good mcu movie again
I mean in terms of movies I wouldn't give it a ten but goated mcu movie, top 5 for me. Good work finally. Honestly don't have much to say about this... it's a shame if this group has ended though it did end in a perfect way. I hope we get more from the guardians of the galaxy! One of my favourite trilogies from the MCU. Great soundtrack, great plot, we finally get background on rocket which honestly I couldn't have made it better. I only wish we had heard about this high evolutionary dude before since he was apparently so well known and so powerful. Great movie though. I honestly have hated the new "joking around" I'm marvel movies like in Thor love and thunder which was one of the worst movies I've watched ever but this one was on point.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022)
So one more franchise ruined by Disney...
Congratulations Disney! You managed to ruin some more franchise! First you ruin Star Wars and now marvel... come on people learn how to write don't do movies just for the sake of making movies... these last 3 ones were absolute trash... dr strange, thor and now this are all terrible movies... also the eternals like come on guys... just stop it. It's beyond comprehension... this whole movie was boring, terrible lighting like the dc movies which btw have one upped you with the really good Batman movie just saying... please go back to the old marvel movies... rewatch them and see if you can learn anything... these last movies and tv shows is just like they were written by an enthusiastic 12 year old nerd... absolute trash...
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022)
Literally the worst thing Disney could've done to The Hulk
I can't even begin to describe how bad this has been... ever since endgame, since marvel was bought by Disney that marvel has become silly, lame and down right horrible... this show is so bad that it's indescribable... she hulk from the comics is not just some lame ass silly ass lawyer... and the cgi in this... oh my god I bet it was cheaper than a pair of socks. It's so so so bad. I used to love marvel but it's been ruined by the Disney people... marvel is a complete mess nowadays... the tv shows apart from WandaVision are the worst thing I've ever seen... and the movies since endgame are terrible too.
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
Thor is ruined...
I was told by my friends that this movie was a joke, I decided to watch it anyway because I'm quite a big marvel fan. Or at least I used to be...
This movie is just too much Disney... like every other thing they've done lately... the marvel tv shows are terrible and so are the new movies... absolute joke... good performance from bale but the rest is very bad... why is Thor all of a sudden so lame and dumb? Literally everything Disney has bought has become so bad... first star wars and now marvel... absolutely unacceptable. Thor's first appearances he wasn't like today... old school marvel is much better. Everything after endgame is just extremely bad, too bad. It's all just Disney writing and it's horrible I really have no words for this... only good thing to come out after endgame was Spider-Man No way Home and WandaVision. Don't waste your time watching this movie... not worth 2 hours.
Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022)
Disappointed and offended
This show had so much potential but Disney had to ruin one of the best characters ever created, once again. I don't understand how this is possible... Disney, such a big name, such a big legacy yet when it comes to Star Wars you guys literally ruined everything you put your hands on... it's outrageous! I've been looking forward to this show for years, literally since it has been announced and I'm offended that you just crap on such a big part of my childhood. It's unbelievable how obviously bad this and every other thing in the star wars universe since Disney has been (rogue one is the only exception). Poor writing, poor dialogue, horrible additions to the Star Wars universe (the inquisitors I mean) like what are you thinking? Not to mention what you've done to Leia... such an annoying little girl, why? You do not have the right to ruin a masterpiece that is the Star Wars universe. I do not care if you bought Lucasfilms. Get George Lucas to write it at least. No one does it better. It is understandable that obi-wan would be a bit washed up but yoda gave him training and obi-wan kenobi was one of the best Jedi knights ever he would've kept training. I hope that at some point someone in a position of power realises that Disney has messed up and redo everything... at least this show and the boba Fett one... the rest of the movies and shows are irrelevant... I do not, as many other people, consider them to be Star Wars. They're just crappy movies. I am deeply saddened, disappointed and even offended that such a great institution would murder the unique legacy of George Lucas that is Star Wars. I could've written everything better. If you want some ideas just ask people, that's to whom you should be doing stuff, not just to get money. You bunch of sellouts. You're also ruining the legacy of Walt Disney... it's disgraceful. Just quit your jobs and let someone creative do it. Someone who knows Star Wars.
Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Defenders of Peace (2009)
No killing code makes no sense
The main lurman or whatever keeps saying he'd rather die than kill somebody. However the droids are not living things so there's no reason why he wouldn't defend himself... no one died in the battle so I also don't understand the ending when he says "but at what cost" no cost... only money for the separatists because the droids are quite expensive...
The Mandalorian (2019)
However
Great job!
However, no need to resurrect Boba Fett... that was trash Disney writing just like "somehow palpatine returned" quit it! Stop ruining the classics man... if you wanted to do a Boba Fett show you should've done about the time during which he was alive... like him bounty hunting and etc... and that way when you wanted to finish the series you could use the movies to help but seen from his point of view and then kill him like it happened. Great end to season 2 let's see what season 3 has to bring... a bit repetitive tbh.
Nuovo Cinema Paradiso (1988)
Absolute masterpiece
I've watched it a month ago now and I still feel like the movie has touched me deeply. It is such a great statement of what love can be even when not talking about romantic love but friendship and family. Also a great wake up call for everyone of us who are too focused on our carriers and etc and end up forgetting people who love and care about us and end up drifting away from them. Alfredo should be all of us, with constant, permanent love for one another while asking for nothing in return. Very very beautiful. I still cry every time I hear the final scene movie. Fantastic ending. Great soundtrack by the master Ennio Morricone. No bad thoughts at all. Perfect Drama Romance movie. One of my favourite films.
Rogue One (2016)
Congrats on the one good new Star Wars franchise movie
The title basically says it all. Good story. Great ending scene where everyone dies and darth Vader has that badass boarding on the rebel ship. And I loved it when leia appeared. Well done. Historically accurate. I just wish Hollywood would leave the Star Wars franchise as it was by George Lucas. But unfortunately they've turned it into a money making machine, ruining all the magic it used to have in the original trilogy and the prequels. I'm saddened to see that I've grown from a little age to love Star Wars and nowadays it's s**t except for this one movie.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
Gutted
I really have no words for this and the 2 previous movies. Completely ruined the franchise. I will not include them when rewatching Star Wars. For me it's these sequels do not exist. I don't care if the cgi is good, nowadays it's obviously better than in the old days however this is a tragedy. The only good new Star Wars franchise movie is rogue one. And that is a really good one. All the other ones were complete trash. No words for them I wish I could erase them from my mind.
