Don't Look Up (2021)
Must watch. F the critics.
I rarely write reviews for these things but i'm doing this to add to the people that are saying this: watch this, do not listen to the critics... Unpredictable story, characters that are bordering between satirical and realistic (with the world today, satire tends to happen too often now in real life events) and it mirrors our intentional ignorance about the real important events happening today...
Would not be surprised what's happening here becomes reality in a few years or decades...
WWE Legends' House (2014)
A must watch for 80s/hardcore wrestling fans and people who like reality shows.
Very late to watching this, but this hits all the boxes in what a good show about has-been wrestlers, set in a reality show format. We need a season 2 of this, WWE!
Man of Steel (2013)
Corniest/cheesiest superhero movie i've seen since the 2000s. turn off your brain if you watch this
i will critique this movie in the grounds that the producers/cast/director established that they wanted 'realism' in the story, and within the merits of the Superman mythos (i'm an above average comic-book reader FYI)
first, the story: the dialogues make you cringe, logic loopholes make you laugh or make your eyes roll in stupidity. Snyder tries to make the character developments as dramatic and epic as possible that it ends making them look idiotic or dimwitted... if it was the 70s or 80s i would have probably forgiven or ignore the screenplay, but... ugh... they could have at least consulted Grant Morisson or Mark Waid on how to make the dialogues more grounded and believable. i give special mention to Michael Shannon and Antje Traue as they definitely stole the movie, props to them.
second, the action and battles: this movie won't disappoint, Snyder went out guns-a-blazing in all the set pieces for the movie. i advise watchers to never leave the seat on every fight scene, as they are definitely worth it... it's up in there with Avengers in this category.
verdict: if you want a good non-sense superhero action destruction extravaganza that the nerdy comic-book reading-kid in you, and your kids (if you're married) would enjoy to watch, this is that movie. but if you're looking for substance/story and character development, do not watch and stay away like the plague, as this will make your brain ache and bleed.
5/10
