60 42% The Goonies (1985) - Rated 22 Nov 2024
"I only had vague memories of this and i've always wanted to watch it properly. Goonies is sort of the halfway point between Indiana Jones and Home Alone. It's an adventure with ancient booby traps with kids using gadgets to fight off clumsy bandits. It's surprisingly bad at times with awful, overly sappy dialogue and poor delivery. Ke Huy Quan also seems to have half as many lines as the other boys. Still, faily amusing for a kids movie, especially if you have someone to make raunchy jokes with."
60 42% Shadow in the Cloud (2020) - Rated 07 Nov 2024
"This is a strange film which combines elements of a bunch of different genres surprisingly well. It also stands out because of unusual choices like the futuristic music and the stylised intros. Nice to see something different, despite the rough start."
80 81% Freddy Got Fingered (2001) - Rated 07 Nov 2024
"FGF is a hilariously demented absurdist comedy which you'll probably either love or hate. If you want to watch something completely unpredictable and shameless, you're in for a treat."
40 22% Silent House (2011) - Rated 10 Oct 2024
"The film is really effective when it gets going, only to collapse in the second half due to a mix of an idiot plot and a disappointingly executed twist."
40 22% Dune: Part Two (2024) - Rated 10 Oct 2024
"Like Part 1, Dune 2 is an empty shell of a movie. Things happen with little context, and you don't really care for it because no one is actually likeable. Villeneuve knows how to make things look superficially pretty and how to stuff his cast with famous actors, but he doesn't know how to make you feel anything. The fake Arabic and "bald albino's in black are evil" trope are tiresome too. This movie also copies Gladiator to a shocking extent, including the identity reveal with a list of titles."
60 42% AVP: Aliens vs. Predator - Requiem (2007) - Rated 01 Oct 2024
"AVP2 is basically a slasher movie except it isn't boring because there are aliens. It's not nearly as good as AVP1, but you still get to see people get murdered in horrible ways, including a kid! Yay!"
80 81% AVP: Alien vs. Predator (2004) - Rated 05 Sep 2024
"I expected this to be trash and it gets terrible reviews. As it turns out, this is the best Predator film yet. The setup is nearly identical to Prometheus (2012), which i also really liked. AVP has dreadful ADR, which only adds to the B-movie feel. The rest of the film consists of amazing set pieces and action scenes, which all look great because they used models instead of shit CGI. The mystery, the actually sensible story, the violence - it all works. This should be a cult classic."
20 4% Nothing But Trouble (1991) - Rated 08 Aug 2024
"I remembered really liking this as a kid, and giving it a 7 on IMDb back in 2005. Rewatching it was rough. I adore The Addams Family so a film about a weird family living in a giant mansion with traps and secret passages should be perfect for me, right? There's even a model train! Yeah, the only reason this doesn't get a 1 is because of the set design. The characters, acting, story, etc. are obnoxious, unlikeable, awful. Don't do this to yourself."
80 81% Persepolis (2007) - Rated 25 Jul 2024
"The best thing about Persepolis is that it's unlike anything else. The art style, the setting and the story all combine into an unusually interesting film."
60 42% La Femme Nikita (1990) - Rated 25 Jul 2024
"Like in Léon and The 5th Element, Nikita is about a little girl/young woman that turns into a killer. It's not believable at all, but between the nostalgia (old technology), okay character work and a few hilarious scenes (Venice lol) there's enough to keep you entertained. Just barely though, this should've been a 90 minute film."
