Jennifer Poe Mazey (2 KP) rated Ready Player One (2018) in Movies

Surprisingly amazing!
My whole family watched this movie and loved it. The concept was well developed, and the visual effects were joyful to watch. My husband and I loved all the old pop culture references, while my 11 year old loved the things he could identify. This movie flowed so well that we were shocked that 110 minutes had passed so quickly.
Since seeing this movie my son has started reading the book, which is amazing, as he hates reading.

This sci-fi thriller turned out WAY better than I expected. The description only scratches the surface of this well paced Keanu Reeves flick. The acting was great and the cinematography/effects were just right. The story unfolds beautifully with plenty of twists and turns throughout. I only found a few things predictable but it definitely didn't take away from the thought-provoking intensity of the story. If you're a sci-fi lover like me you'll really enjoy this film. Worth a watch!

Set after the first film. Newt is back in the UK and the Mom is adamant that the whole episode in the US was at the bidding of Dumbledore.
Credence is alive and is searching for his family which is revealed in a twist at the end of the film. The scene is set similar to Deathly Hallows pt 1 with FB3 and 4 looking to blow away the viewer.

The Mutant Saga Begins
So begins my journey in rewatching the entire X-men series in glorious 4K.
Though it may be 19 years old this movie is still as exhilarating today as it was then,from the special effects to the performances of mckellen and stewart as the leaders of the two different groups of mutants.This film paved the way for so many of the superhero movies we love today (namely the MCU)

Shazam!!
I thought this movie was very good. But for a superhero movie I felt like it had more foul language and scary parts than your average hero film. I wouldn't reccomend bringing younger kids if they get scared easily. I did enjoy the humorous parts, and the part of the sidekick played by Jack Dylan Grazer was great. The writing was good, and Mark Strong as the villain is always a good choice.

I was shockingly wowed!
The original tv movie was a classic horror movie in its own right but this one is a masterpiece. When it was over I was wowed by the factor that I honestly didn't think this movie could top the original tv movie but I have been wrong before and this new take on Stephen Kings IT was thrillingly crafted into a masterpiece. We need more horror movies like this.

Panned by critics upon release, this is still a very enjoyable film. It is the weakest of the 3, the story is not the best or most original. The ending also feels like it was rushed and happens very abruptly. However there are still very few films with such convincing dinosaurs in them and the effects are great. Just a pity there wasn't a bit more of the T-rex fight near the start. Sit back and enjoy the visuals.

Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Tau (2018) in Movies
Jul 16, 2018
Watched a new Netflix original called "Tau". It's a sci-fi thriller about a girl (Maika Monroe) kidnapped by a scientist to experiment on her, coding AI from peoples emotions. She escapes his prison but ends up stuck in his house under the scientist's watch with the assistance of his AI controlled house. Very good acting and story. The effects were pretty impressive and the cinematography was very well done. Netflix continues to make very good original content. Worth a watch!

The movie that started it all
This is the movie that started the Mission Impossible franchise so it had to have done something right. Right?
You would be absolutely right. This film is suspense, mystery and action all rolled into one. Some of the effects may not have aged the best, but this film can still hold its own with many of the great action films. I will watch this movie again and again to watch just how great it is.
