The Black Demon (2023)
Where's the Shark?
What can I say about this film that's positive... Oh yes, I know, it is consistent. At being awful.
How on earth did this film get shown on the big screen? I get the feeling the Director had their tongue permanently stuck in the side of their mouth the entire shoot. Honestly, if you altered some of the music and changed a couple of lines this would be more like a parody than an attempt at a serious scare/horror flick.
The shark is barely on screen, the visual effects team must have been on a very tight budget. I say this as they remind me of the effects you may have seen in movies such as Sharknado...
Acting... I'm sure there is some in the film. After all, it is an hour and forty minutes long. So you'd think with all that time they'd find time to actually get some acting done. Wrong.
This does for the shark based horror films what Amber Heard did for DC.
Don't watch, don't even think you'll have a look out of interest. No point. You'd be better off running a bath and getting an inflatable shark off amazon.
Black Adam (2022)
Snore...
I knew this was going to be a mare of a film when I spotted a glaring continuity error less than five minutes in. If that was the only thing I'd have given this a better rating. But it's not. We've seen this all before, and not that long ago. DC are just too late to the game. Poor script, full of cliches and some of the effects are just plain bad. Everyone speaks with either an echo on their voice or the further you get into the film the slower the action becomes. Almost as if they are trying to extend the film simply by making all the fight scenes half speed.
My opinion, if you want to see this then wait for it on TV, you won't miss anything by not seeing it at the cinema and you'll save some money!
Kevin Can F**k Himself (2021)
Love this
Two episodes in and I am hooked, the contrast is so engaging. Please give me more!
Coming 2 America (2021)
Poor, just poor
Money and 80s stars thrown at this like you won't believe. If it had been released at the cinema it would have bombed. Little plot, the coming 2 America part is fleeting.
Yet another film where the writers forgot to place comedy in a comedy film.
Mary Poppins Returns (2018)
Poor Casting - Jack
I did like the film. However, whoever thought the casting another American as Jack needs their head examining. If you thought DVD was bad in the original you've got a whole new realm of bad here.
Mandy (2018)
A new low
Over the years NC has made some decent films. However, this doesn't come anywhere near that level.
I am unsure whether it's poor writing, poor interpretation of the screenplay or just bad all over.
A mess of a film with little direction. I get that the makers were trying to explore the whole other plain scenario but they fail miserably.
I see HMV and other retailers selling the film in limited edition packs, don't be fooled this is just a ploy to force the film into some sort of mythical cult genre which it does not deserve. It is not a grindhouse film, the production is too good to make that claim.
If you have a choice of watching this or watching paint dry I'd advise you pop to the DIY store...
