John Wick 4 (and a little bit of the first)

 



So I saw my first John Wick movie with my aunt. This is probably gonna be brief .

Mr. Wick has been a bad boy, and is now on the run from the high table, with it's most notable assassins being Caine (Donnie Yen), and Mr. Nobody (Shamier Anderson). They only way to really get out of this is to challenge the big baddie Marquis (Pennywise, I mean Bill Skarsgård) to a traditional duel in exchange for his freedom if he wins.

So while the fighting scenes were good (REALLY good, and many times GREAT) they seemed a little slow to me. My aunt noticed that as she mentioned to me that the fights from the previous movies were a little more clean. After watching the first movie last night, I understand what she means. Plus that didn't take away from the movie as a whole, I'm just picky. 

Donnie Yen was by far the best part of this movie. No only was his character a total BOSS, but it's hard not to root for him even though it's hard to tell who's side he's on. But we know either way that he's just trying to keep his daughter alive. It's hard to hate someone for that.

Just a quickie on the first, I did like the first movie and now I've got 2 more to go. And overall I did like the forth. I just probably should not have saw it before the first 3.

American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

  American Idol  has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries. For those of you who didn't track these last year, here's an explanation; I will be saying my thoughts on the contestants and their performances. In typical 'me' fashion, I will rank each performance to #1. But unlike my normal lists, this will be from worst to best.  This will be starting the following week as today is just an introduction. Our Top 24 has been chosen and they are as follows;     Canaan James Hill (Platinum)             Gabby Simone  Zaylie Windsor                         Mattie Pruitt  Thunderstorm Artis                  Drew Ryn  Che                                     ...

American Idol 2025 Day 2: Top 24

  I would like to say that for the first week of live shows, a good majority of contestants either did REALLY good or better than they should have. I personally was very impressed with the last 2 days. With that being said, I still gotta rank. Today I will be ranking every single performance from worst to best. This ranking is solely based on my opinion. If you have not read last week's introduction, I highly suggest you read that first before this ranking;   Worst Performance Of The Week:  Baylee Littrell Happy - Pharrell This really kills me. Not sure what he was thinking with this song choice #23: Josh King I'm Still Standing - Elton John Him and Baylee equally sucked. But at least this song was more in Josh's league #22: Olivier Bergeron   I'm Not Okay - Jelly Roll He's kind of bland to me #21: Desmond Roberts Do I Do - Stevie Wonder Needs to calm down a little #20: John Foster Callin' Baton Rouge - Various Also kind of bland #19: Kyana Fanene I Am - St...

Last Minute Music Reviews

  So here are some last minute reviews of songs that I've heard over the past few months that did not reach #1;   Where Is My Husband - Raye This is incredibly fun and strangely catchy. While this is not officially a jazz song, this obviously has jazz influence and it works very well for this song. I will go ahead and admit that this is my introduction to Raya, I have not listened to Oscar Winning Tears . So far, I'm intrigued.    Midnight Sun - Zara Larsson This song is kind of AWESOME. Not only is the production GORGEOUS, but it also has a very nice hook that goes smoothly with Larsson's voice. My sister actually recommended this song to me and I see why. Larsson does currently have a Grammy nomination for this. She's gonna lose, but I'm glad this song got recognized. If my sister see's this, thank you.   How It's Done - Huntrix (From KPop Demon Hunters ) I have been meaning to review this for a while, but I kept getting lazy. Like Golden , this song has g...
