Hazelita (7 KP) rated Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017) in Movies
Nov 18, 2018
My partner didn't like it because of the humour and language which he thought wasn't faithful to the original Star Wars movies - it was too different for him but I personally thought it was enjoyable and I loved Kylo Ren's character. I just found that Princess Leia scene a bit cringy to watch.... not sure what they tried to do there but it was weird.
Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made (2018) in Movies
Oct 29, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
So the story goes that Antrum was believed to have been lost and a sole copy of the film was tracked down and packaged for public release.
The film opens with a short 10-minute documentary which examines the dark history of the film, after which you are given the opportunity to watch the original version of this cursed film at their own risk!

Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated The Shining (1980) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
After almost 40 years since its original release (damn now I do feel old!), this is still one of the best horror films of its time, maybe it’s not on par for the younger audiences that have gotten oversaturated with the CGI and gore, but The Shining is psychological masterpiece that has to bee seen on a big screen for the full effect.

Very original (1 more)
Looks great
A spectacle
Nope is a film that is more like an experience, a very different, quirky type of film. It is a bit of a slow burner for the first half. Definitely made up for it in the second half. It has a good cast and the cinematography is great. A weird and enjoyable film.
David McK (3623 KP) rated Cobra Kai - season six in TV
Jun 1, 2025 (Updated Jun 1, 2025)
The sixth - and final - season of Netflix's 'Cobra Kai' Karate Kid spinoff series, that actually manages to stick the landing and provide a satisfying layoff to the story of Willaim Zabka's Johnny Lawrence (who lost the fight at the end of the original 'The Karate Kid' film) and Ralph Macchio's Danny LeRusso (who won said match) and their respective families and Dojo's.

Has the feel of original series (2 more)
BB8
Hans Solo and Princess/ Genral Leia are back
Star wars for a new generation
The force awaken opens up star wars for a whole new generation whilst the original trilogy had the world enraputed with this epic adventure series and revolutionized the way we see Sci Fi, Fantasy today Phathom menace, attack of the clones and revenge of the sith, didnt quiet capture the sprirt of the original trilogy. However Force awakens come out swinging.
Not only do we see our old favorites of Han solo Cewbacca Princess now General Leia the new characters leave a force of there own you cant help but admire Rey strength and determination. Fall in love with little BB-8. Finn ability to feel even though hes a storm trooper bring up a whole new level of meaning to established characters from the series.
Ive always like the dark side more than the light as my friendtell me i only ever like assholes so obviously Darth Vader is my favorite star wars character however Kylo Ren is no Darth Vader. However much he may wish to be and although the ending cements his darkness between Vader and Kylo there no choice who i think is the better villian so this film get a 9/10 rather than 10/10

Lee (2222 KP) rated Mary Poppins Returns (2018) in Movies
Dec 22, 2018
Good but not as memorable as the original
To be honest, I'm kind of struggling to know what to say about this. The main thing is, I enjoyed it, and the rest of my family loved it too. It just wasn't enough to leave any big lasting impression on me. The songs are all good, usually accompanied by some wonderful visuals and fun choreography, but none of the songs are particularly memorable. There's nothing that I can imagine being as repeatable, or as catchy as 'A spoonful of sugar' for example. Emily Blunt is wonderful as always and the movie does a fantastic job of paying homage to the original Mary Poppins and keeping to the style and tone of the movie, there's just something missing that I can't quite put my finger on. I can remember leaving the cinema after seeing The Greatest Showman a year ago, having the songs stuck in my head, downloading the soundtrack and wanting to see the movie again. I didn't really feel like that at all with Mary Poppins Returns.
That being said, this is still a good fun family movie and if you enjoyed the original you should find enjoyment in this. With all the doom and gloom in the world right now, the world definitely needs something like this for all the family to enjoy at Christmas time.

Shine on
So I recently watched The Shining again to prepare for this. I've not read the book so can't compare it to that. It's mainly set some 30 years after the events of The Shining with Danny now a grown man and struggling in life. He finally finds a calling and seems to settle in a small town where he can use his Shine in a positive way. He discovers a new child with a great power and also of a group who want to hunt her down exploit her power.
For a long film it did whizz by as the story was very interesting. It's a different type of horror film to the original. Although it's still dark and disturbing in its content. We learn more about those with this power and the evil group who hunt down those with the power. It's good to see the overlook hotel again but in some ways this film didn't really need visit the old location. I guess it does give it more of a connection to the original. Although a couple of scenes there really would have been better cut out.
Overall it's a very interesting, entertaining film that might not be scary as such. It is very dark and menacing. A great expansion on the Shining universe.
