Britt Smith (36 KP) rated The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) in Movies

Look: If you're going to talk about art and cinema, you're going to have to mention NMB4C. It's simply a fact.
The time and effort that went into the movie, coupled against the beautiful storytelling make Tim Burton's classic film worth the watch. This reviewer has been a long-time fan, and continues to watch it at least 2x times per year. Why? Because it's just that fun. Not to mention that Oingo Boingo's front man (and epic composer) Danny Elfman does the singing voice for Jack Skellington. It's simply got a season run between Halloween and X-mas that make the film utterly enjoyable and fun. It's OOAK, and you'll be hard pressed to disagree.

Introducing reality TV star Michael Myers!
Some people were turned off by the different style and almost humorous take on the ongoing Michael saga, but I thought it was a pleasant surprise.
Inject more young, fun actors like Busta Rhymes, Katee Sackhoff, Thomas Ian Nicholas and even Tyra Banks and what you have is a masterpiece of horror (not really, but at least something a little different).
Interesting idea to place a bunch of unknowns in Michael's childhood home as part of a reality show and watch the calamity ensue when bad things start to happen (and then the real Michael shows up).
Seems like I enjoyed more than most.

Stylized 80s Italian horror at its finest
It's hard to believe Jennifer Connelly was ever that young!
Director Dario Argento's interesting tale of a young American girl with unusual powers who comes to attend a European boarding school is interesting and very unusual at the same time. After a series of murders, the girl has to decide if her abilities will help her or it's just time to get out.
The film's rock score is intense and backs up the ominous visuals and striking sets and lighting. Certainly campy by today's standards, it still is an entertaining watch for those who enjoy out-of-the-box storytelling.

No adverts TV series and movies
I have to say, I love netflix. No adverts, no waiting a week for the next episode, you can binge watch to your heart's content. Netflix creates its own movies and seasons. My current favourite is The Christmas Chronicles and The Good Place. Both are most sees, both will brighten your day and leave you with a smile on your face and a laugh in your heart. Best of all, my whole family can watch whatever they want to on their own devices, no more fighting over the TV buttons.
Katelou Skeffington (27 KP) rated Chernobyl in TV

Wow!
Contains spoilers, click to show
Chernobyl is a great watch, especially as it's a true story about a nuclear power plant in Ukraine in the 80s.
Its gripping from the minute you watch start watching it, you can just tell something is going to go wrong and when it does, it's many people pay the price with their lives all because of a very stubborn man and his decisions to carry out test that came be done properly.
Chernobyl the city has to be abandoned straight away and still remains radioactive to this day.
It's not just about the explosion but how so many was affected and the trail when finding out who was to blame.

Just remember 143
This documentary is about a man i watched all the time when i was a child. I have learned many life lessons from him. I have showed my own children some of his shows. I this reminds me you have to talk to kids as a kid. If you grew up watching him or have kids watch it and learn why he was a great teacher. I found it very moving documentary.
And when you watch it you will learn why the header to this is 143.
Now if you know song sing it with me
A beautiful day for a neighbor
Could you be mine?
Would you be mine?

On Your Mark, Get Set, Go!!!!!
I finally got the chance to watch this movie and oh boy it was excellent, the chemistry between Bale and Damon is phenomenal, the plot is fantastic, the racing is like your actaully their. James Mangold did a perfect job directing this movie.
The Plot: American automotive designer Carroll Shelby and fearless British race car driver Ken Miles battle corporate interference, the laws of physics and their own personal demons to build a revolutionary vehicle for the Ford Motor Co. Together, they plan to compete against the race cars of Enzo Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France in 1966.
A must watch film, if you havent seen it yet.

AT (1676 KP) rated Playmobil: The Movie (2019) in Movies
Mar 6, 2020
I don't think this movie was as terrible as most of the reviews said it was. It's a kids' movie, about a sibling relationship, and basically, playing with a lot of the Playmobil sets together, as kids do. It was corny and dorky at times, but that's what made it fun. The "acting" was over the top at times, but it was how kids play with the characters. It definitely was silly, but I don't think it was awful. I laughed quite a bit. You just have to accept the play world of children when you watch it. It wasn't the best movie that I've seen, but it was still fun to watch.

When it was announced that the CW was going to attempt to bring Archie and the gang to mainstream, I was pumped. I'm a huge fan of the comics, and still purchase the digests.
I got 4 episodes into this trash before I gave up. The characters were all warped beyond any recognition. The plot and dialogue is cheesy and eye-roll inducing.
The biggest affront was them completely ruining Betty. Betty has been a role model of mine since I was a little kid. It was disgusting.
I told myself I'd go back and try to watch this again... but I can't justify wasting the time. I'd rather go watch grass grow in the desert.
