This show has so many ups and downs, but man do those ups feel like the DC comics universe could unseat Breaking Bad as one of the best shows if it keeps it up. I am just blown away by this show at certain points, but some episodes were a drag.
This is a Guy Ritchie film much like The Gentlemen with more CGI. In fact, the main fight scenes at the end and their CGI are one of the biggest hits to this movie. The characters are just to bendy and you don't have the grounded overlays of CGI enhancing a scene.
This is a millennial classic. I mean October 3rd is Mean Girls day. Some how I have watched this multiple times in the last couple years and because I have watched it so often I could have sworn I've written a review. But I didn't.
I really appreciate a book that puts a challenge to you after discussing a theory. As a Marine, the word "Practicum" really sets me up for success. It makes me want to complete them. Even without that, the practicums are directly tied to the chapter and are well within reach.
We have to spend a second with the stories here. I now understand where the idea of "you won't die if you are a virgin" and "All teenagers are having sex" comes from. I didn't grow up in the 70s, so I have no clue of the authenticity of that second one, but I understand why my parents thought it
John is incredible in his direction. For a very unique film in the silence of it, you get so much. I don't even think there is music other than a couple scenes where the characters are listening to music. From a sound design perspective it is incredible how this pulls you into the movie
I constantly feel like I am being lied to by her. So I understand the frustration. I don't mind the rest of the cast's acting, but there are some story choices that make no sense. The girl that is there gets slapped so hard and I believe her from that one scene than I do anything else
The tricks and CGI are fine. Other than the one spinning light I mentioned, I am not sure I felt like they did anything significant. Most of it was tricks of the light rather than anything particularly interesting and maybe that is because of just how slow this movie felt.
He came out swinging with this after The Sixth Sense. I really enjoy this movie, however, I do not believe that it fits into the "Horror" genre. It is for sure more thriller, and we also tap into the theme of "everything happens for a reason" or the providence of God
Am I missing something? Why is this so important to people now and had such a big impact on things in gaming in the last couple of years? I just don't get it. This movie doesn't do a lot for me into the idea of pulling me into the mystery of what is going on. Is this a fever dream? Psychosis?
This is one of the earliest horror movies I ever watched and for sure one of my favorites back in the day because it was based on a true story. However, watching it this time, I see where it is really a story of a story and it is "Inspired" by, not based on a true story.
Take that and add in the monumental performance from Lily-Rose Depp and you have an almost masterpiece. The way she moves her body and changes her voice you can see is real without much enhancement or any at all. The transition from her character to the possessed is incredible.
