The Boys: Season Four Finale (2024)
Best Boys season finale yet.
Now this is a satisfying finale wrapping loads of plot lines and handling the whole government takeover in a smart way.
Sage being happy at the end proves that she's so smart that was 200 steps ahead everybody else here. Butcher showing off what he can do after he blacked out when he dispatched Ezekiel also extremely brutal as anything with butcher would.
Post credit scene opens up a final battle for season 5 which is confirmed to be the last, still think Meave has a chance to save the day in an episode next season.
The whole ending making The Boys as the underdogs once again is by far the best thing they could do singe they've been way too comfortable since season 1.
Rebel Moon - Part One: A Child of Fire (2023)
So much wasted potential
For the first couple of minutes I was really wondering why so many people were saying this movie was bad, and then you realize this is yet another Zack Snyder film that had amazing visuals but insanely boring dialogue. Each and every character has a gazillion SloMo shots to introduce them that it becomes repetitive.
What bothers me is that these are good actors that just were given a bad script to work with. Yes this was part of a Snyder pitch for a Star Wars film, and it shows, but if this was meant to be a rated R film then why go for a PG13 and promising a director's cut later next year?
And yeah I know the movie needs certain stuff to happen in order for the plot to move forward, but for some reason every character is exactly where they need to be without much struggling. Why is Netflix wasting even more money in part 2 of this?
Oppenheimer (2023)
Oppenheimer was nothing short of amazing
Christopher Nolan put together yet another masterpiece. Even though it's 3 hours long unless you got XL soda you will disconnect from this world and focus on a beautifully shot and perfectly acted film. If you can, by all means go find an IMAX 70mm screen to fully appreciate what Nolan created.
Cillian Murphy portrays Oppenheimer masterfully and you feel it in his eyes, I have no doubt this film will be nominated for everything and sure hope wins best picture, director, screenplay (which must have been as thick as the yellow pages), cinematography, and supporting actor would be great to have RDJ finally win an Oscar. Emily Blunt shows that she's got the range for these films, Florence Pugh was barely in this film and quite frankly even if she was included to show the womanizer side of Oppenheimer, her performance was mid at best.
This is the kind of film made to be consumed in the largest screen possible and with proper cinema sound system.
John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023)
Best John Wick film, and probably the best action film of the year.
It begins right at where chapter 3 ended, and John still trying to make the high table understand he wants to be left alone. And within a couple of minutes happens the only logical thing and bodies start piling up.
Without going into specifics you see stuff happen to the NYC Continental and the Bill Skarsgård character recruiting, more like forcefully dragging one of John's old friends in order to get the job done, and at the same time we're introduced to the Tracker character that has a cute malinois with him because we know how much this franchise love dogs.
THE ACTION
Set pieces are insanely paced and the movie never lift the foot off the gas that even though the movie has almost 3 hours you won't feel it at all. The whole chase in Paris has John dispatching henchmen with ease drifting around and dodging oncoming traffic as the High Table price on his head increases pulling even more assassins. There's an scene inside a house after that with an overhead shot that makes it look like a video game and the whole theatre was laughing at how John moved around using walls for cover and using dragon's breath shotgun shells (not a spoiler as it was in many trailers).
It's not every day that we see a franchise get better with each film, specially with a sleeper hit in 2014 that was my favourite film of that year with reason. Watch this movie in the biggest screen available and don't go for a large drink because even though it doesn't feel like it's 3h long, otherwise you'll be very uncomfortable before the credits.
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)
It's just basic colourful garbage
Jonathan Majors was by far the best part of the movie and Kang felt like ran out of power for the sake of letting the good guys get the win at the end, also Michael Douglas was great as usual.
Plotwise moves based on random stuff that for someone that already fought Thanos would know better, MODOK is wasted here bringing someone not even the writer of the first movie remembers. But yeah it is very colourful that would entertain kids for sure and for the amount of CGI this looks like it was made in a single chroma stage. It seems like the MCU went kaput with End Game. And indeed this movie felt like a carbon copy of previous MCU films.
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
Brainless Thor falls flat
They turned Thor into a dumb hero, when in the infinity saga he was a mighty warrior that felt defeat after the snap and then wanted redemption in End Game. This movie was trash and I guess Taika go-to comedic style it's going stale. Jane Foster was mostly in this movie just so she could be used to hype up the trailer, Lady Sif was barely mentioned that makes you wonder why bring her into the plot at all, Valkyrie had so much to do in Ragnarok but here we're presented with her being forced to deal with bureaucracy after being named king. And why have Jane sacrifice her life if then the post credits takes the meaning from it at all. Just wait for it to be available on Disney Plus and save yourself some money. This really shows that Marvel had no idea how to move the MCU forward after End Game.
Un macho de mujer (2006)
awful movie, it has no point
It has a great name, but thats it and you wont get more than that for your money, in fact the first 30-40mins of the movie you might find it some kind of funny but after that the story goes from one side to another with no particular reason and you just cant understand whats happening until the action its gone.
And yet the producers (Roberto Angel Salcedo) calls him an actor, but i don't think the way he does could be called nothing but overacting!!....period. The little kid who plays as his son has totally no sense of acting and i believe it was just a favor he did or something because he had no clue of what he was doing.
For some reason while doing the casting they thought that by casting comedians they could made it, but they didn't!! and sometimes the tasteless cheap humor its so bad, i don't buy it.
But hopefully this is as bad as it gets. To make people accept those DVD's to the good taste public they will have to offer some food with it, that might work out.
