Succession (2018)
Absolutely repulsive!
Boy oh boy, where should I start?!
First and foremost, I would really have to wrap my head around when was the last time I saw this many hideous characters all ramped into one screen?!
There's absolutely no one to be empathetic about, or to like, or to care about....or to continue watching for.
All of the characters are vile human beings, but the ones that irritate me the most are Kieran Culkin, and not just the character, but the actor himself, and Tom Wasgans or whatever his name is.
The first one is as if the casting directors told him "Just be the spoiled little brat you are and try to make as many people as you can to hate your guts!", and then said "cut".
The other one is an irradic joke of a man who poisoned the actor playing him, for me at least, because I really liked him in pride and prejudice, and now I can't see anything but Wasgans.
Anyway, I tried, but I couldn't get passed the first season because it's to vile, overly cinical, nihilistic, depressing, slow, aimless and in the end meaningless.
I advise you, instead of this, give bonsai trees a try, maybe you'll get more for your time's worth.
Elvis (2022)
Never will I EVER watch another Baz Luhrmann fim again!!!
What was this....a parody, a circus act or just simply grotesque?!
Austin Butler is the only, and I mean the ONLY thing I can point out as good in this apsurdity.
No story, no character development, no history accuracy, and no sense at all!
I couldn't even make it to the end so I walked out in the last half.... I was ready to walk out after the first half hour, but my girlfriend wanted to push through to the end...a decision she said she later regreted.
This is, for me, the first movie where I found Hanks to be bad and iritating (not just his character but his portraiture of him as well).
The way he acts is horrible, and what's up with that grotesque accent?!
The scene where the audience at his FIRST appearance goes from ridiculing him to worshiping him because of one guitare riff and a short refraine is just nonsensical!!
That just never happens at a FIRST anything...ever.
That scene would make sense if he was already an established artist....but not for Baz Luhrmann who should be on trial for crimes against humanity.
In short (athough too late for that already), there's so much wrong and meaningless in this film that I could write all day, but I refuse to waste any more time out of my life on this.
All I can say is that it's if the studio executives decided to give 85mil dollars to a doped up guy that's high all the time and a 12 year old child to make a movie and just sat back to see what happens.
If Beale Street Could Talk (2018)
Not worth your time
Someone gets an oscar because of his stellar performance, and not to fullfill ethnic or sex orientation quota.
Regina King is allright but nothing more than that + she's in the movie maybe about 20 minutes, and not the good ones, if there is such a thing in this movie.
Barry, man...you gotta stop filming these kind of movies...both of them are bad.
I Still Believe (2020)
No no!
Can someone explain to me what this is, cause it surely isn't a movie, or a relal life story?!
The main character is so non realistic that it's almost funny. He comes to a new state with a small bag, but every day he has new clothes on. Within 2-3days he has friends, meets a music star, plays with a music star on a concert...really soon gets a record deal. I've lived in five cities and I gotta tell you...when you're new to a town...things don't go that easily or quckly.
Anyway, i turned it off after 40min and just got back to my life...undamaged.
Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood (2019)
How the mighty have fallen
I've been a Tarantinophile ever since reservoir dogs and I've been waiting for this one ever since i read its announcement.
I went to see it and.....absolutely nothing happened. There is no sustainable plot.....or any kind of plot for that matter....or character development....or smart or interesting dialogue...or any meaningful attempt of acting, other than Leo's stutter.
I wonder if the studios would give me 100mill dollars if i put a camera on the cockpit of my car and recorded someone driving me to work and back with nothing else really happening in the middle?!
The last 15min, funny as they are cannot redeem the previous 2,5 hours of nothingness!
I just hope Tarantino's dry spell is only temporary and that we haven't seen the best of him yet..
Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019)
Stare at the sun for 2hours instead
I went to watch it the other day and left the movie after 32 min.....just enough not to cause permanent damage to my long term memory and to my neocortex.
Spider-Man: Far from Home (2019)
Bake a cake instead
Do not....I repeat...do jot watch this film unless you wish to be dissapointed. I went to see it with a full heart and came out slightly bitter and emptyhanded.
Like one other review said it already....grat movie....if you're 8 years old!
I really wanteed it to be good like the first one, but it just isn't. Plot holes all around, the comic reliefs are childish, Jake's caracter is underdeveloped and come on.....Peter gives him acess to the national defense system 2 hours and a drink after meeting him....no one is that naive!
The mid credit scene feels like plot twists in 80's comic movies and the post credit scene just doesn't make sense.
So....I advise you, do something else with those 2 hours of your life...like...bake a cake instead.
