Emma @ The Movies (1786 KP) rated Edie (2017) in Movies
Sep 25, 2019
This was a really emotional film, I was surprised quit how much of it got to me. There's a genuine battle between loving and hating Edie for a significant portion of the film. While I felt the triumph of the whole endeavour, I'm not really sure that I came out liking her. Or several of the characters for that matter. The only one I really came out liking was Jonny, who let's face it, was too nice for his own good.
It's a story of perseverance, and you do need some to make it through. It says that the film is 1hr 42. It felt like every minute of that, and several more. I wasn't so bored that I was making shopping lists in my head, but had I been watching it at home I'd have switched channels. It is a nice film, that I'm glad I watched. But I won't be watching it again.

I hope I am not the only one that hears the echoes of Citizen Cope.
“sky high that’s a nice view
you called and i came thru
this is how i say i love you”
— Gabriel Black
It's a flow, there's some understated lyrics, and Sofi de la Torre's voice adds a nice coat of syrup to the core confection. This song took me by surprise. It's not exactly a roots track, yet is in the sense that it is modern and throwback at the same time. That OG self-titled Citizen Cope record was 16 years ago so it makes sense that the feeling is back.
Jump is not just a reanimation of some golden era of genre synthesis, it feels like the voice at every house party. It is the first premise of youth, as stated by David Bowie so many years ago: we are immune to your consultations. If you jump then I jump too.

Dean (6925 KP) rated Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022) in Movies
May 9, 2022 (Updated May 23, 2022)
Horror elements (2 more)
Some unexpected cameos
Great action scenes
Probably need to see Wanda Vision series to understand it more (1 more)
Main plot line isn't that great
Something a little different
Well after Spider-Man No way home I had very high hopes for this and really enjoyed the first Dr Strange film.
Following closely on from No way home as more about the multi verse is discovered. With Sam Raimi directing there are some nice Horror theme touches throughout the film. So making this a bit different to the normal Marvel fare. I was a bit surprised at the plot direction of the main story, having not seen Wanda Vision series. I imagine that would fill in a lot of gaps before seeing this. There are plenty of nice surprises through the various Multiverses.
Still it has amazing visuals and action scenes as you expect from Marvel filling out the blockbuster standard you expect. Definitely one to see on the big screen.

2 iconic characters in the same film (1 more)
Much better than most of the Friday the 13th films
Slasher fan heaven
A pretty cool hack'n'slash film. Almost tongue in cheek at times, it could almost be a spoof of both series of films. The effects are cool and there is plenty of blood for gore fans. Nice to see a recent film starring these two cult film characters giving the fans what they like.

Good Cgi (2 more)
Fight choreography
Great Actors
All style and no substance
Another film that is struck down by the video game to big screen curse. Despite the budget, great cast and good special effects I just found the story uninteresting. I've not played the games, so can't comment how true to them it is. Shame as it had great potential. A nice looking film but without any depth to it.

Cool cast (1 more)
Some good genre jokes
Fun film for Slasher fans
A decent offering as far as recent Slasher films go. The cast is cool and clearly had fun. A nice idea of being put in to an 80's Slasher film and having to survive. Leans a bit more towards the comedy zone though for hard-core fans. Also check out @Midnight Movie (2008) which was good.

Good ... but the book is better
I read the book first so the movie had a lot to live up to in my opinion and just couldn't quite do it. It is nice to have a Christian based movie in the theaters. But a movie just about God's grace and the trinity is a huge undertaking. That being said, it was well done and I'd watch it again.

Matt Damon is great (2 more)
Quite a heartwarming film that will have you routing for him
Good Sfx for the spaceship
A quality film
I did worry that this film about being stranded and left behind on Mars would be slow and boring. I need not have worried. It has some nice light hearted moments and is quite funny at times. Matt Damon gives an awesome performance that will have you willing him on.
