Oh my god. Oh. My. God.
Cinemá is alive and well, folks, and it will be as long as people give guys like this $185 million dollars and no restraints.
I don't think any director in history has had a more meteoric rise than Denis Villeneuve. He has nothing left to prove, but a hell of a lot more to say.
With regards to the movie, I'm at a bit of a loss for words atm (just like I was…
There was a tweet that stuck with me from a while ago that basically said Martin Scorsese and Ridley Scott directed each other’s movies with this and Killers of the Flower Moon.
That thought stayed in my head throughout the movie. And now all I can think about is how much this would have crushed with Marty at the helm.
Ridley’s directorial (and editing, jeesh) sensibilities don’t quite fit this particular world, so it’s the over-the-top performances that carry the…
While Innaritu is able to get out of his own way unlike THAT OTHER MOVIE, "The Revenant" is still a little too long, a little too poorly plotted and a lot too self-indulgent.
DiCaprio (give him the Oscar), Hardy (one of 2015's best baddies), Poulter (Nicholson eyebrows and all) and Gleeson (needs to act in everything) kept me engaged and interested throughout this movie's dubious run-time.
The following transcript is taken from a recent interview between Mr. Merritt and Marvel Cinematic Universe Producer Kevin Feige.
MM: Hey Kevin, thanks for making the time to do this again.
KF: No problem. I actually have to get back to our pre-production meeting for Tar Baby, so let's make this quick.
MM: Got it.
KF: Actually before we get into it, do you want to come clean?
MM: I'm sorry?
KF: You did a review in this format for…
I've never been the biggest fan of anything Matrix or Wachowski, so my expectations coming in were pretty non-existent.
Seeing it post-Spiderman certainly was an interesting experience, as each grapples with the history of the franchise in their own distinct, but polar opposite way.
While I didn't love how this went about exploring that past, there's enough there to think about that will grow on me over the next couple days unlike that other movie which to put it kindly:…
Don't roll your eyes too hard at what I'm about to say. You could hurt yourself.
Fallout is The Dark Knight of the Mission: Impossible series.
Sorry to be so derivative, it's just true.
Between the moral introspection, blood-pumping action sequences and sky-high stakes, there is simply no other reasonable conclusion to come to.
Like Nolan before him, and Kasdan before that, Christopher McQuarrie built this conflict up rather than letting it spread thin with another adventure. This isn't just…
X-Men: Apocalypse is the movie equivalent of a truck with its back tire stuck in the mud.
There was just barely enough things I enjoyed about it to justify liking the movie. I hope this is a misstep and not a sign of what's to come for this awesome franchise.
I hope.
