No One Will Save You (2023)
Worst movie I have seen in a very long time
I do not remember the last time I saw a movie that was extremely bad. I do not watch bad movies. I just don't. The trailer fooled me and so did the ratings.
I am always careful when I pick a movie. I glance at the rotten tomatoes score average and IMDB average.
I know full well that sometimes the critics get it right, and sometimes they get it wrong. This time they got it wrong. I trusted the critics this time when I shouldn't have. They were right about the exorcist believer but they were wrong about this movie. Can't trust critics.
I like horror and sci-fi and the trailer for this movie hooked me instantly. I put a calendar reminder to when the movie would come out. I waited for it in anticipation. I did not watch it until today because I got busy.
I am just in absolute disbelief at how atrocious this trash was. There was ZERO innovation and zero originality. There was nothing new and nothing that has not already been done.
The design of the aliens and spaceships and the light was not original at all and was reflective of stereotypes of aliens and spaceships.
I am simply baffled at the waste of resources this movie took to make, which I am sure were very little because there is basically no human dialogue in this movie and there is basically one sole actor. Probably cost just a few dollars to make this movie and the end result is what you would expect - total garbage.
I cannot believe I wasted my time with this movie. Maybe a child would like this movie but anyone with intelligence would not appreciate this waste of time of a movie.
On a positive note - the actress I thought acted well even though she never spoke, which makes it even more impressive. I have no complaints of the actress, and I am usually very critical of bad acting, but this was not the case, so I give the actress an A and the movie an F.
1/10 stars for the movie.
The Exorcist: Believer (2023)
Should have trusted the critics; it was so bad I fell asleep
I should have trusted the 22% on rotten tomatoes. I went in fully knowing this number but I ignored it because sometimes they get it right and sometimes they get it wrong. This time they were right. This movie was garbage.
It was so bad I fell asleep.
I went with my friend and he too thought it was trash.
One main problem is that the writing was dumb. Nothing made sense.
Don't know what else to write. There is a minimum of 600-characters to post a review. I wanted my voice to be heard. This was a terribly written and hugely disappointing movie, but I went in with very low expectations but this did not even meet my very low expectations.
The Recruit (2022)
Slow show, but somehow I stuck till the end
I cannot believe I watched the whole thing in one sitting. I mean, I cannot believe I watched the whole thing. I thought of quitting by episode 2 by how slow the show was going.
The main conspiracy premise of this entire first season was very WEAK and I cannot imagine reading this on paper rather than watching it because I would have then definitely died of boredom.
But, somehow, the team behind this show did a great job and made me like and enjoy the show and made me glue myself to the tv 'till the very end.
By the end of season 1 I was screaming, "NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" because I could not believe I did not have more episodes to watch!! I was so sad I need more soon!
This show starts very slow but at the later episodes little secrets are revealed which make the whole story worthwhile.
The relationship between Fivel Stewart and Noah Centineo was cute, especially at the end, which just left us ALL wanting a season two asap!
Overall, this is a slow and good conspiracy first season with a very weak main premise, but with a great cast and a hint of romance.
P.s. To the writers of this show - we need more romance and a stronger conspiracy!
9/10 - recommend it.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022)
Lots of gore and nice gotcha moments
I randomly found out on the radio that this movie came out today on Netflix. So I watched it right away.
This movie was fun to watch. There was so much gore. And the script included many "ah-ha! Gotcha! Moments, and I really liked that.
I loved the way leather face was portrayed in this film. He was huge and terrifying; his entire look was flawless. I also loved how he wielded the chainsaw - I mean he moved that thing beautifully.
That scene with the cellphones was hilarious. Loved it.
I loved the camera angles too and I loved when he clearly posed with the chainsaw for the camera/viewers. It was cool.
The acting of the two sisters was great. They were very believable and I have zero complaints, but especially Fischer towards the end.
Ending - I laughed immediately when I saw and was a bit bittersweet, but befitting of a leather face movie.
Conclusion:
Excellent flick to watch anytime alone or with friends/family. Definitely recommend.
The Matrix Resurrections (2021)
Bad story and bad casting; weak protagonist; weak fight scenes; inappropriate John Wick look
I was extremely disappointed w/ this movie. I love the matrix franchise but this movie was bad.
I think the problem was the story - it should have picked up right after Revolutions. The first 1/3 of the movie did not even feel like a movie. The other 2/3 of the film focuses on a single "ok" premise but it just did not cut it - and look at the reviews to see our great dissatisfaction. The story should have picked up right after revolutions.
Hugo Weaving should have returned as Smith - cannot believe he turned it down over some trash theater which did not do well and shows were cancelled anyway due to COVID. He could have single handedly bumped up the movie's ratings by a couple of stars.
And Lawrence Fishburne should have returned as Morpheus.
And why did Neo look like John Wick the entire time. This was a Matrix movie - Neo should have looked like Neo. It was completely inappropriate to basically advertise John Wick 4 in a Matrix movie. Neo should have had short hair, no beard, and dressed with the black clothing and black shades, you know, the matrix look. I love John Wick but this was so inappropriate.
And we love Neo because he is the strongest in the Matrix but who was the genius that made him so weak in this movie? So weak! Fans do not like to see their favorite protagonist be weak - we want the protagonist to be the strongest, what a terrible decision. John Wick is so popular because the protagonist is so ridiculous lethal. But Neo was weak - genius idea, not.
I blame Lana Wachowski for writing this mediocre/failure of a movie and for the terrible "creative" directing of this film.
5/10, which is an F in an F - A scale.
I rewatched the previous three films in preparation for this sequel. I think I will go and rewatch them all again to fill that emptiness inside me I feel after watching this trash. Also, I hope the movie does well financially and that there is yet another sequel, and this is because I love the Matrix franchise so much, w/ the exception of this terrible fourth film.
Finch (2021)
Great movie, but missed opportunity
Oh man. Just finished it. Really liked the movie. But after seeing the "ending" I immediately realized that the whole journey was pointless and that dropped my rating to 7 or 8. Also, I wish there had been a happy ending with humans. What a missed opportunity. A sad ending is powerful but at least write a proper ending for *'s sake.
Clickbait (2021)
Binge watched it in one day because I just HAD TO know who did it!
Clickbait is not an appropriate title for this mini-series at all. But it is completely obvious why it was not appropriately titled because having done so would have given up the main premise of the series.
Overall, I would highly recommend the series. It was very-well made overall. Lots of unpredictable curve balls and the deeper you get into it, the more badly you want to know just who the heck "did it."
However, this mini-series has one unfair piece of footage that never happened in the story for real but was shown to fool the viewers into believing something that we would not have believed without that fake footage. Such fake footage prevented the viewers from being able to deduct the main premise of the whole mini-series, which could very well be the title of the series. Such fake footage also 100% changed the narrative of what was going on in the story. When it was finally revealed such fake footage never even happened, I felt so deceived and lied to and completely unimpressed by the producers inability to fool the viewers without using such a cheap tactic. Once it was revealed such fake footage never happened, the true premise of the entire series is finally revealed.
Also, it was also extremely unfair that the viewers had literally zero percent chance of being able to figure out "who did it" because any possibly helpful information pointing to a potential culprit was not presented until literally the last episode when everything is finally revealed. I literally tried my best to figure out "who did it" as I progressed through every episode but the mini-series does not offer even one clue for the viewer to solve the puzzle/riddle. None. Not even a single clue. The final episode regurgitates all the information to explain who the culprit is and why they did it. It was unfair not to give any clues for the viewers to play detective.
Conclusion: despite the shortcomings listed above, I was left satisfied with this show. I enjoyed it and watched it all in a single day because I just needed to know what "who did it and why." I would highly recommend this show to everyone. 9/10.
Gokushufudo (2021)
LOVE IT
Love this show.
Only 5 episodes?
Please make more episodes!
The Accountant (2016)
The account could rival John Wick in a fight to the death
First time I watched this movie I gave it a 9.
Just watched it a 2nd time - gave it a 10.
The accountant could rival John Wick in terms of deadliness. If the account and John wick fought, I am not sure who would win.
This movie is excellent. Ben Affleck and Anna Kendrick were a good match.
If you like John wick and The Equalizer, you will like this one.
The Most Dangerous Animal of All (2020)
Well-made piece of entertainment
This 4-ep mini-series was well-made, in my opinion.
Kept me glued to my seat for the first 3.5 episodes. The last 1/2 of the 4th ep. caused me to deduct 2 stars.
Overall, it was entertaining and well produced.
Tehran (2020)
Amazing spy espionage original Apple+ series; very high quality
Oh man, Apple+ originals have not yet disappointed me. Such high quality original new series!
If you have a sound surround system with powerful bass, you will want to have it on to enjoy this show since this show has a lot of bass, just like movies.
Anyway.
I started watching this show after being impressed w/ other Apple+ originals. I did not even watch a trailer nor read anything at all about this show. I just jumped in.
This show was mystery from the very first minute until literally the very last minute of the show. The season finale was very exciting and I was sad when I realized it was episode 8 already and there was no more :(.
The protagonist is excellent and I was happy with her as the lead. The supporting cast I was happy with as well.
I just finished episode 8 and I must say this is an amazing spy espionage series that everyone can enjoy.
I will pray that there is a season 2. I am praying the other original Apple+ series also get a second season. 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻. Apple please make a season 2.
10/10. P.s. this show is best enjoyed if you have powerful bass sound surround system. This show will make your heart race, I promise, if you have powerful bass.
Sin-gwa ham-kke: Jwi-wa beol (2017)
Randomly found it on Hulu; loved it
I'm kind of tired of American movies so this Korean film was a refreshing different kind of movie.
The plot was great.
The special effects/graphics were great.
It was over 2h long which was great.
10/10 from me.
I just learned there is a sequel so I'll watch it right now!
The Midnight Sky (2020)
Boring and dumb piece of garbage
This film was visually aesthetic. But that's the only compliment I can give it. The movie was boring. The only twist in the story was easily predictable.
What a waste of my 2 hours of my life. I wish I hadn't let the visuals fool me. The actual story of the film is that there is no story.
What a piece of trash I just watched.
1/10
Wireless (2020)
Outstanding mini-series
This was an excellent mini-series I randomly wat he'd after a commercial of it.
The protagonist The Sheridan did a perfect jog with his acting; it was natural and believable.
The movie had an ultra-realistic survival feel to it.
Everything about the movie was excellent.
I just wish each episode had been longer.
10/10 totally worth watching it !!!
The Umbrella Academy (2019)
Randomly decided to watch it... ended up falling in love w/ the characters and the whole shkw
Season 1 - good.
Season 2 - great; not a perfect ending by a long shot, but I was left wanting a season, so I hope it comes out soon 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻.
The cast will grow on you - promise.
The show is great overall.
In the Dark (2019)
If you like Ozark then you will like this show; season 2 has a lot of twists introduced per episode and got better and better; cannot wait for season 3
92% of google users liked this show.
Randomly found this show in 2019. Somehow I ended up watching the whole first season. I did not write a review for season 1 but I did give it a 9/10 on IMDB.
When I randomly found season 2 on Netflix I recognized the show immediately and clicked on it right away.
Season 2 surprised me. Every episode had plot twists and the twists got better and better as the show moved forward. The unpredictable plot will keep you glued to the TV, as well as Perry Mattfeld's excellent acting and green eyes.
The rest of the cast did great too actually; no complaints from me.
Excellent plot really.
Just excellent and totally worth watching.
Season 1: 9
Season 2: 9.5
Tio Papi (2013)
A beautiful story about family and love; excellent ending
100% spoiler-free.
This movie presents a beautiful and heartwarming story about love and family.
A beautiful story of a man who has never wanted kids, whose life is suddenly barged into by 6 kids. You see the transformation this man goes through. You see the fight for love. It was beautiful. The ending was excellent and memorable and made me love the movie so much more and got that 10/10 from me. The story was believable and totally plausible. You will LOVE the ending.
29% on RottenTomatoes.
6.1 on IMDB.
93% of google users liked the movie.
So who is right, RT who gave it a 29% or 93% of the viewers who thumbed up the movie?
This movie was excellent. Forget the critics and forget the haters.
Once again, the critics and IMDB get it wrong.
I give this movie a 10/10. It was that darn good and everyone ought to give it a chance and watch it.
Actors:
Joey Dedio - I thought he did good as the protagonist. He did good.
Kelly McGillis - she did good as the "villain".
Jerome Preston Bates - really good job as joey's boss.
Fátima Ptacek - did a great job as expected.
Frankie Faison - good job as the superintendent.
Franky G - good job as one of the friends.
David Castro - good work.
Nicolette Pierini - fine work as one of the youngest kid.
Gabriella Fanuele - decent work, but I did not get that "motherly" feel from her unfortunately. I think she hurt the film :/.
Conclusion: once again, the critics from RT and the users on IMDB get it wrong. This is a beautiful and heartwarming story about love and family. A clear 10/10 after the ending. I cannot believe this movie does not even have a wikipedia page. Would love to watch a sequel.
Gon-ji-am (2018)
The movie is 91 minutes long and yet you only get 6mins 39 seconds of "horror"; that is 7.4% of the actual film; and the horror was not even scary at all; huge DISAPPOINTMENT
I swear, I tried, I REALLY tried to get scared. Maxed out the volume, watched it alone at night with lights off, sat 6 feet from my 65'' 4K TV while staring at the screen without blinking to get scared. And nothing.
91% on RT? 92% of google users liked this movie? I gave this movie a shot based on the high ratings, and I had such very high expectations, but oh my, what a SHOCKING disappointed. I was not expecting it at all to be sooooo bad! I thought it was good since it had 91% on RT. I did not even watch the trailer since trailers sometimes give away too much plot and I like to be surprised. I watched the trailer AFTER I almost finished writing this review and oh my, even the trailer is bad; I thought they would have used their best two "horror" screenshots in the entire movie which lasted maybe 5 seconds, but surprisingly they did not put them on the trailer.
The movie has 91 minutes of content and only from 1 hr 11 mins to 1 hr 28 minutes do you get some sort of "horror." All the "horror" scenes are listed below. The scenes were set up properly but the outcome of each horror scene was dumb and silly and definitely not scary at all, with the exception of 1:11:29 - 1:11:32.
The plot was nothing new. We have all seen the other "horror" movies that have the same plot of some young dumb people visiting an abandoned asylum where a lot of people died. I knew this coming in, but I had my hopes up for nothing.
The first 70 minutes out of the total of 91 minutes of footage were spent "building up" and alluding to some "horror" that would come soon, but the horror although the scenes were presented properly, the ultimate outcome of each "horror" scene was dumb and not-scary-at-all.
"Horror" scenes times:
1:11:29 - 1:11:32 = 3sec.
1:12:40 - 1:16:06 = 3mins 26 sec.
1:23:10 - 1:25:10 = 2mins.
1:27:20 - 1:28:30 = 1min 10 secs.
Grand total = 6mins 39 seconds.
However, despite how not-scary-at-all this movie was,I will give the actors props. I think they did a good job, esp. given the fact that they had a camera pointed at their face.
In all honesty, in real life if I were physically in that asylum at night with the actors, would I be ******** my pants? Oh absolutely I would be. I'd be terrified. However, that fear was not translated into the film and through my screen to me. Sorry, it just did not.
Conclusion: not scary at all. It does not deserve a 91% on RT. It deserves more like a 19%. If you do give this movie a shot, you can safely fast-forward to the 1hr. 11min mark and you will not have missed any horror.
2/10
Fighting with My Family (2019)
A movie about following your dream and also about family; randomly found the film on Amazon prime which turned out to be a good film overall
Randomly found this movie on Amazon prime and watched it knowing nothing about it. Did not even watch a trailer.
The movie turned out to be good. The end was especially good. I do not watch WWE anymore so I had no idea about the story.
Towards the end when I fully understood that it was based on a true story I realized how MEANINGFUL the end was. Meaningful for Paige but also meaningful for her family.
The Rock did a great job as usual. Florence Pugh did a good job. And so did Vince Vaughn.
Cool film overall.
8/10
My Spy (2020)
Plot's been done 1/2 dozen times before; still absolutely loved the film; great acting, screenplay/script, cinematography, special effects, comedy, and ending; watch it!
49% on RT. 6.3 on IMDB. 46% on Metacritic. 84% of google users liked the film.
I don't care if the plot has been done before in 1/2 dozen movies. This movie was done well and I deeply enjoyed it from start to finish. The screenplay/script was excellent and I loved the COMEDY parts. The directing was excellent. The cinematography was excellent. The special effects were great. The editing too. I do not know why and do not care to find out why people like to hate on movies. This was a great and fun movie to watch that was well-made that at the very least deserves an 8.5, but I give it a 10. Could not find a single thing to fault it with. Will be re-watching it in the future for sure.
The cast Dave Bautista (hero), Chloe Parisa Fitz-Henley (mom), and Chloe Coleman (kid) did a great job and enjoyed watching them.
Devere Rogers (neighbor) did really well too. Enjoyed his acting too.
Ken Jeong - did good, but I wish he had had more time in the movie. But I understand the emphasis was to be on the hero, mom, and the kid.
Kristen Schaal - I am not sure how I feel about her performance. It was decent.
The ending was great.
Conclusion: excellent movie. Very enjoyable and a lot of fun to watch. I have zero complaints.
10/10
Bohemian Rhapsody (2018)
Rami Malek absolutely earned his Oscar for best actor; his acting was phenomenal; movie was excellent on all grounds - acting, casting, screenplay, directing, music, cinematog
I only found out about this movie after randomly watching a video of Rami Malek winning an Oscar for best actor. I am a fan of this actor. And his speech was really good. I found out this movie won 4 Oscars. So I became very curious and decided to watch it.
And as usual, I watched it without even watching a trailer or reading anything about it. I dived in completely blind.
I pretty much almost instantly liked the movie. It was just so good.
Rami Malek did an absolutely phenomenal job and could clearly see why he totally deserved Best Actor for 2018.
The rest of the cast were excellent.
Everything about the movie was excellent: acting, cast choices, cinematography, directing, music, screenplay, etc.
Before the movie I only knew of two songs from Queen, but after the movie I became a fan and added several of their songs to my library. I was born in the wrong era and place so I was not around to enjoy their music back then sadly :/.
Conclusion: amazingly well-made film. Should have won Best Picture. Highly recommend it and will definitely re-watch it in the future.
Schindler's List (1993)
Thank you Leopold "Poldek" Pfefferberg, Thomas Keneally, Steven Spielberg, and Schindler; earned those 7/11 Oscars but deserved 10/11 Oscars honestly; amazing
Pfefferberg: "Schindler gave me my life, and I tried to give him immortality."
It's on Netflix right now, so I thought why not watch this amazing movie, again, for the 3rd time.
Oskar Schindler - the antihero who became a hero.
Leopold "Poldek" Pfefferberg - found and convinced the writer and the filmmaker.
Thomas Keneally - the writer who told Schindler's story.
Steven Spielberg - the filmmaker who made the movie.
This movie should have also won best actor, best supporting actor, best costume design, and best makeup/hairstyling. Liam Neeson, Ben Kingsley, and Ralph Fiennes did a fine job as the main characters.
This movie transports you to the holocaust for 3 hours and 8 minutes and it is simply a nearly-perfect film that I will definitely be re-watching over and over in the future. It is that good of a movie.
Conclusion: 10/10
Hancock (2008)
Will Smith did his thing again; intelligent plot with a smart twist and good ending; good character development of the three main characters; GOOD movie overall
I liked this very emotional, sad, depressed, hopeless, antisocial, careless, unfriendly, lonely, closed off, and lost character Will Smith portrayed.
Plot - I think it was written intelligently with the exception of a couple of special effects "fight" scenes. The plot has at its core a very smart and creative piece of writing which was also its greatest twist. The final portion of the film was also written well and the ending was a very pleasing ending.
Cast:
Will Smith - I have watched 12 of his movies and I have never been disappointed in his performance. He delivered every single time. And he did really well in this movie too. He portrayed the lonely and lost character he was supposed to portray, and he did it well.
Charlize Theron (female lead) - she did pretty good. No complaints from me.
Jason Bateman (Marty Byrd from the Ozarks) - he did good; no complaint.
My favorite line in this movie: "call me crazy... one more time."
There were a couple of scenes I completely disliked in this movie despite the cool CGI: that scene where Jason Bateman's front of the house is destroyed at night and also the destruction of part of the city during a fight between the two characters. The writing for these two scenes was just so wrong. Such reckless destruction of property is illogical. Surely these two scenes cost the movie some points.
Conclusion: this is a GOOD film. The plot and screenplay were written properly. There is good character development of the three main characters. However, the two biggest special effects scenes were not written intelligently. The plot has a pretty clever and unique twist, and the ending is as good as it could have been for the plot.
8/10
Greyhound (2020)
Exactly 1hr 20 mins long; an UNFINISHED work; deducted THREE STARS for being UNFINISHED, but otherwise enjoyed and liked; it was like swimming with great white sharks
I liked this movie and I enjoyed it from start to finish, but it only lasted exactly 1 hour and 20 minutes and is an UNFINISHED work so it lost three stars for that from me.
AN UNFINISHED MOVIE - The plot was written to feel like the the movie has an ending, but I was not fooled - this movie is an unfinished piece of work. The movie abruptly and magically ends. The excuse for ending the plot may fool some but not me. This movie is unfinished.
$50M to make an 80-min movie on a ship? They did not even spend money on advertising it due to covid-19. For this movie to be worth more stars it needed to be at least 25-mins longer or 40-mins longer if possible.
Had the film been longer I would have happily given it a 9/10 at least.
Tom Hanks did his thing; no complaints from me. The other men in the film did fine. The woman was underwhelming and had zero charisma; bad casting there.
The German submarines felt like great white SHARKS and the U.S. ships felt like humans, and the plot felt like humans forced to swim with great white sharks in the ocean. Common sense dictates the sharks will win and in real life that is what happened. The submarines massacred the U.S. and allies forces on the water for almost 6 years.
Battle of the Atlantic (aka swimming with sharks) spanned almost 6 years and as expected the U.S. and allies had losses many many times that of the Germans. And that is why humans do not willingly swim with great white sharks, but unfortunately that is what they had to do back then at an extremely high cost as expected.
Conclusion: I liked this movie. I enjoyed this movie. And I was left wanting more after its sudden end. It raised awareness about the 6-year-long Battle of The Atlantic. Tom Hanks was great to watch. But after 1hr. and 20mins. this film was abruptly stopped and clearly left UNFINISHED. This film should have ran for at least another 25-40mins. What a shame. $50.5M and we get an unfinished movie?
7/10
Alien Resurrection (1997)
Never in a million years did I think I could feel genuine sympathy and pity for a horrendous monster
100% spoiler-free.
55% on RT.
6.2 on IMDB.
63% on Metacritic.
79% of google users liked this movie.
Budget $75M; box office $161M
Thank goodness this movie was better than the 3rd one (which was absolute GARBAGE and got a 1/10 from me).
This 4th movie was definitely not as good as the first two (gave them both 10/10), but this 4th movie is refreshingly good. Sigourney Weaver - she brought her A-game, as usual, She always brings it.
The third movie - killed the protagonist. Who does that? I guess they wanted to literally kill the possibility of a longer franchise? This movie seems to have tried to fix SOME of the things the 3rd one did wrong. It brought back the protagonist, took the setting to a ship designed similarly as in the first two movies (minus the dark visuals), and it even gave us 3 good supporting cast to become attached to, and a final battle.
However, where this movie went wrong was with the fact that it had too much lighting and basically no darkness so it failed to create that famous dark visual appearance of the first two films. The aliens were shown with too much lighting and that was wrong since what makes the aliens so memorable is the fact that the aliens emerge from dark places and from shadows. The first scene when the aliens are introduced was perfect - it was very dark and the camera shots were very close to the aliens' faces and bodies; it was perfect. But the next scenes had too much lighting and that was the wrong thing to do; showing their whole bodies with a lot of light was wrong. The director and cinematographer failed here because it was their job to create a dark and creepy visual atmosphere, and to have the aliens emerge from dark places and shadows; but they failed to do this.
Supporting Cast:
There is a 7-person squad of mercenaries but only three had good character development and the other four were forgettable.
Winona Ryder (the short-haired girl) - she had the best character development in the supporting cast. Good acting too. Loved her performance.
Dominique Pinon (wheelchair guy) - great casting choice. I had zero issues with his performance. I wish he had played a bigger role though. Would it not have been cool to see a badas* guy in a wheelchair shoot up some aliens?
Ron Perlman (Hellboy) - he should have been the leader of the squad; why the **** was he not the leader? He had all the traits of a leader. Not making him the leader definitely cost this movie some points. It just did not feel right for Perlman to not be calling the shots. What a blunder in casting!!! He could have offered so much more to this movie; such a shame.
The other cast members I was not impressed by at all. They had very minor roles and were easily forgettable.
One thing that made the 2nd movie so good is that the supporting cast was properly chosen and the audience actually cared about their fate. So as expected, in this movie I only cared about those characters that were given at least some decent amount of character development (short-haired girl, wheelchair guy, and Hellboy). I actually really liked these three cast members and I am glad that they did not _____ at the end.
The monster - it looked cool and terrifying, but it just was not what an Alien is supposed to look like or be. It did not even attack like an alien or move like one. It was a totally different species. However, I was very impressed at the fact that the hideous and despicable monster was able to evoke sympathy and pity from me. That was very impressive and the final scene was difficult to watch because I somehow cared for the monster? I am impressed the writers and everyone who made this scene were able to evoke these emotions from me.
Plot - I did not really mind the creative route of this story. I thought it was fine.
Conclusion: not as good as the first two, but astronomically better than the third one. This movie can hold its own. It gave us a protagonist and three supporting cast to cheer for and care about. This movie did many things right that were done in the first two movies. The plot is acceptable. The ending was strong and felt right. Any alien fan should definitely watch this one.
8/10
