Big Releases For January

 



The first releases of the new year. Like every month I will be addressing notable releases of the month, my personal thoughts on how they might do, and whether or not I will see them. I will only be speaking on 2 movies for today.





 The Book Of Clarence-January 12

This movie was actually released last year at a festival, however it will be released internationally next week. Set in Jerusalem during biblical times, a dude named Clarence attempts to turn his life around by capitalizing the rise of Jesus. I will not see this movie as I do not trust any type of biblical movie in Hollywood with today's climate. If someone I know and trust sees it and approves of it (most likely a family member), I may change my mind, but I highly doubt that will happen. Critics already approve of this movie, so it might do well at the box-office (not that critics are the main draw to a movie, but it helps).



 
 Mean Girls- January 12


I have seen the original Mean Girls once or twice, and I do like it, I just don't hold to high regards like others. It of course centers on Cady Heron and her attempts to survive high school after being homeschooled for most of her life, which is a difficult tasks when it involves Regina George. As you can see, this comes out the same day as The Book Of Clarence. Unlike Book Of Clarence, I probably will go see Mean Girls out of curiosity. I'm not exactly sure how critics are gonna feel about it mainly due to the trailer kind of rubbing people the wrong way. This might do decently at the box-office mainly due to the iconic status of the original. 


Thanks For Reading.

So.......The Bride😕

So I was completely off-track with The Bride . Did not expect the film to crash and burn as hard as it did with both critics AND the box-office. After getting murdered, a woman by the name of Ida is brought back to life with the intention of being a companion to the oh-so iconic Frankenstein. And together they wreck havoc. Like Wuthering Heights , the movie wasn't terrible but it had a lot of problems. The biggest issue with this film is that it tries way too hard to be edgy and it just doesn't work. It wanted to be this hardcore feminist take on Frankenstein , but it just felt convoluted and slightly underwritten. It had this plotline involving Ida causing some revolution for women and did pretty much nothing with it until the last minute. It was kind of a let down. The best thing about the movie however was the performances and chemistry between Buckley and Christian Bale. I thought they were strangely endearing, and this might be a better love story than Wuthering Heights  (...

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...
