This film was frustrating and confusing. So much screaming and really unlegit conversations. Then the end went crazy with multiple escapes from the jaws of a shark...
The oxygen levels only were relevant at certain plot points and so were a pointless tension tool they never used.
The random strong current and the way the sharks just popped up out of no where when there was no way they could have got into those areas was eye rolling.
There was also no other fish at all which is strange since where the hell are the sharks getting there food.
This was trying to be a weird slasher movie, replaced with a shark.. trying to be too serious and then throwing out the most ridiculous ending...
I was so surprised to find out this was a sequel XD

(The movie 'Relic', on the other hand, was a bit of a dud).
They're the only 2 novels by Douglas Preston I'd ever read, until I decided to give this one a go based on both the premise (extinct animals being brought back to life) and the blurb.
I knew it wouldn't be a 'Jurassic Park' (which is name-checked) scenario; wasn't quite sure what it would be. What I got was an enjoyable enough read that put me in mind of something from the late Michael Crichton: I also have to say that, whilst I didn't get either the specifics nor who was behind it (or the reason), I did see what was coming from just over roughly the halfway mark!
Lee KM Pallatina (951 KP) rated Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) in Movies
Feb 8, 2022
It's been 32 years since the apocalyptic events of the first movie and the original ghostbusters are all but completely forgotten.
After the death of egon, his estranged daughter and her children move into his home and try to settle in before pieces of the past start to uncover and an old threat is unleashed... So someone makes a call.
Fantastic visual effects, original soundtrack, a huge dose of nostalgia and a beautiful emotional scene that packs a punch that really kick things into gear.
This is a truly worthy sequel not to be missed and features cameos from the original cast.
LeftSideCut (3776 KP) rated Escape Room: Tournament of Champions (2021) in Movies
Mar 4, 2022
The first Escape Room is a relatively tight thriller, with multiple entertaining-as-hell set pieces, all wrapped up in a load of half-baked plot weirdness. This sequel doubles down on both of those things. The puzzle rooms themselves are more extravagant and ambitious, and sometimes, there's some tension on display. I just wish they would lean into the horror more and get gory!
However, the small semblance of plot is needlessly convoluted, and executed so poorly, that it doesn't make much sense, and it just doesn't matter. I wasn't annoyed that it was bullshit, because I just didn't care, as my brain cells slowly fizzled away.
Tournament of Champions is dumb and fun. Pretty forgettable, but a good enough time whilst it's happening.
