Den skyldige (2018)
Proof You Don't Need A Great Budget To Make a Great Movie
I rented this movie on Google Play not realising that it was a subtitled Danish movie. I was incredibly surprised at how this film hooked me in from beginning to end. The movie is basically a police officer taking emergency dispatch calls whilst under investigation. I won't say more as it will give away some of the plot. It has the hallmarks of the movie "Phone Booth" starring Colin Farrell which was basically a man on a phone in a phone booth for most of the movie. Both movies prove that you don't need multiple expensive sets or special effects to make a good movie. If you have a good story, actors and a director you can do anything on a shoestring budget.
The Blacklist: Hannah Hayes (No. 125) (2019)
I'm Done!
Leftist pro-abortion propaganda garbage. I have loved the Blacklist from the beginning but after tonight's episode I am done. Surprised the cast didn't push back and force the script to be thrown out. Will never watch the Blacklist again.
Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)
Still Unsure What To Make Of This Movie
I was seriously considering not watching this movie after seeing all of the negative reviews from people who got to preview it before the official release date. I decided what the heck and went and saw the first session when it was released. I didn't find it as bad as people were saying.
I do have some gripes though. Why kill John Connor? It meant T1 and T2 were for nothing? If they wanted Dani to be the leader they could have easily made her to be John's daughter. The same actress could have played her. It would make sense that John could end up with a Mexican wife as Sarah and John would have had to flee the USA after blowing up Cyberdine in T2. We could have seen both John and Sarah training Dani to prepare for her upcoming role as leader of the resistance against Legion. Yet this was sadly not to be. There was a lot of hype about Edward Furlong reprising his role but it just seems as if they just used a young actor and CGI-ed John's face from T2 onto him. Maybe Edward did say a few lines which were later pitch altered a couple of semi-tones as he does seem to be mumbling something in Spanish but this is hard to tell.
T1 was great. T2 was one of the best movies ever made. T3 was definitely not in the same league as T1 and T2 but still quite enjoyable. T4 I only watched at the theatre and have not bothered to watch it again. T5 I have watched two or three times. Not as good as T3 but still better than T4. T6 could have been so much better. I would watch it again one day hence why I have given it a 6/10.
Saving Christmas (2014)
Makes the "Emoji Movie" look good.
If I wanted to see a movie with two people in a car for most of the movie I'd watch Stephen King's "Cujo".
Strictly Ballroom (1992)
Ghastly Example Of How Not To Make A Film
The worst thing about watching this film is that I had to watch it as part of an English class so I wasn't able to turn the tape off and take it outside and burn it. Everything about this film his hideous. This film should never have been released. Many of the scenes look like they were filmed by a five year old with an fascination with the zoom button. I could've produced better material with my handy cam. The acting and script is almost as bad. Hitchcock would burst out laughing if he ever saw this movie. Really deserves zero stars. Utterly horrible movie.
Halloween: Resurrection (2002)
Even Jamie Lee Curtis Can't Save This Film
Film is so bad I have only watched half way and have no real desire to watch the rest. The best part of the film is the first fifteen minutes where Jamie Lee Curtis and Michael Myers have their final face off. Sad to see they killed Curtis's character off because the movie may have had hope if they kept her alive until the end. Without Curtis or Donald Pleasence this movie is an outright dud. These two characters are what make the Halloween franchise viable. Without them it is just a C-grade slasher flick with no purpose or direction.
