Army of the Dead (2021)

Typical Snyder, Shallow characters, dialog, predictable, boring boring boring

[5/10 · 22 May 2021]

I never write movie reviews, but I need to write this one for myself just to vent.

I can't believe after all these years making movies this man has not learned anything when it comes to plot, characters and what even the dumbest audience would expect.

He just keeps coming up with these shallow meaningless dialog, casting aweful actors (for the most part, doesn't really matter when the plot is full of holes and dialogue is written by a 5 year old).

I gave it 5 stars just because I understand it's still watchable for some its visuals and a lot of work has gone to make all that.

Don't waste your time watching this, I did.

Us (II) (2019)

Same style, bad story

[4/10 · 27 May 2019]

If you liked "Get Out", you're going to enjoy this one but not as much. The main problem is a weak story full of holes. Don't watch it expecting something better or even on the same level as get out, otherwise you will be disappointed.

The movie starts well and has a great atmosphere in the beginning. but as the story moves forward you kind of see the ending coming. I'm not going to spoil anything here, but I guessed the ending about 10 minutes into the film! that is not good writing because as I was guessing that ending, I was thinking "No, there's no way this would be it.".

Since I don't like spoiling the story, I won't go through the details, but the story has enough holes in it that you wouldn't want to re-watch this movie because there's nothing that you could've missed! it's very simple and predictable with lots of holes in the logic of the things happening and the decisions made by characters.
