Movie Mini-Review Thread - Part II

[FiestaST]

Dances with Wolves (1990) 7.5/10

Great Western epic with an engaging story. Great cinematography & production value. The Extended version I watched is just shy of 4hrs, so the story does drag slightly.

 

[SoldierMan]

Spoilers.

It's an old movie. How old does a movie have to be before you don't have to worry about spoilers?

Shazam - 8/10
The DC universe is my preferred comics universe so glad to see DC get this one right. Not perfect but a fun movie to watch. With Black Adam no doubt to feature in the next movie (I assume, as he is a great character). The Superman cameo was well done too, as short as it was. Supes vs Shazam no doubt is on the cards some time in the DCEU!

Snatch (2000) 8/10

Arguably the best crime comedy ever made. Tight plot, likeable characters & witty dialogue.

Don't you think Snatch deserves something closer to a 9 ?

It's my weighted rating. 9 implies something that is truly fantastic on every single level. I don't do 10s for context.

Which is why I said closer to 9 like 8.5? Lol

John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019)

Probably one of the most boring movies I've ever seen. Action sequences were lame and drawn out. Zero story. Absolute garbage. 3/10

He really needs to buy some stronger bullets so he doesn't have to shoot everyone 5 times in the head to make sure they're dead.

Yes, it's kak.

Life Is Beautiful (1997) 8/10

Beautiful bittersweet story. Told in such an inventive way.

 

[biometrics]

Yes, it's kak.

Don't think I finished it. First one was entertaining, this was trash.

Korsub of Far From Home dropped. I'll wait for blu ray.

Perfume (2007) - 8/10. Dark, compelling, faithful adaptation of the novel.

Scott Pilgrim vs The World (2010) 8/10

Watched this at least once a year since it came out - it's so cool.

 

[FiestaST]

American History X (1998) 8/10

Shockingly powerful watch with stellar acting from the 2x Edward's.

I'll wait until Tuesday for a good quality.
