Proximity (2020)
There's no way this can possibly have so many good reviews.
I assume there's been a cheat algorithm to give this its score.
It's absolutely awful. Really bad. I'm only still watching it because it's making me laugh.
Stupid robots. Men in black. Security Straps that are Velcro tape.
Escape from bad guys out to a horse and cart saying 'Puerto Rico' A minutes later dumb assistant says where are we. Reply. 'I think we are in puerto Rico'. No kidding. Who knew.
Sound of thunder. 'What was that noise'. 'I think it was thunder'.
And then Stephen Hawkins voice takes over.
Laughable, terrible, what a mixed up, slow plot line.
And oh. It appears it's all to do with Jesus.

Cinderella (2021)
Why all the poor reviews
Nearly didn't watch this because of the poor reviews. I don't understand why.
It was a cheesy but very humorous and uplifting take on the traditional story.
I'm a cynical old misery. But found myself really enjoying this and laughing out loud.
The movie pokes fun at the original tale. With throw away lines like 'I'm in love' ...'after one evening?!' And gets rid of the stereotypical marry because he's Prince Charming and subservient female role
Just enjoy the ride, the funny asides, and the excellent music and dance.
I wrote this review to try to redress the balance. I don't usually write reviews.
Vanity Fair (2018)
So we've paid for the army uniforms let's make full use
...Said the producer to the director. Surely you can get those 6 marching soldiers in every street scene.
I think the British army was around 300000 in preparation for the possible French invasion. They all seem to be based on this one street. Doing drill duty badly, for some strange reason.
There is a point where setting the scene can be somewhat overdone.
Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017)
Ed Wood... You have serious competition
Being the 9th in the saga, and set in Space, this could easily have been titled Plan 9 From Outer Space, but this title had already been taken.
That said, it closely followed the formula of that film... Confused story line, wooden acting, ludicrous plot. All it needed was the appearance of Bela Lugosi's chiropractor to have made it perfect.
This may well go down as the worst film of all time, knocking Plan 9 from the top spot.
Indeed they might even get Ed Wood to direct the next film. He might have died decades ago, but in this new Star Wars film anything seems possible.
Since when were Mary Poppins, and Oliver Twist in Star Wars? Did I see Dumbo in one scene? Gravity in space for Bombers??
And when is an alliance not just a small group of mates? Can they field enough players to make up a football team?
It would be hilarious if it wasn't such an offence to Star Wars fans.
If, like most fans, you've avoided any information until you've seen the film, then you won't be reading the reviews until it was too late. Your mates will also have been politely silent about it so as not to spoil the experience. And you call them mates!! For goodness sake WARN your friends, you are just funding Disney's coffers.
