Big Releases For May

 



So it's a new month, it's time for new movies;



 The Fall Guy- Friday

I think I first saw a trailer for this when I saw Mean Girls. Honestly it looks pretty cool and I probably will go see it. Critics are already responding well to the film and it already set a world record. I see it doing well at the box-office mainly due to the star power of Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt (ironically Barbie and Oppenheimer alumni).


 Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes- May 10

I've never seen a single one the Planet Of The Apes movies. I always thought they were kind of ridiculous. I'll probably end up seeing this just out of curiosity. While the newer movies started off with mixed reception, they went through a massive shift over the years. But given this is the first of the new movies without Andy Serkis as Caesar, I'm not exactly sure where this will land in terms of critics. This is probably gonna do well at the box office though.


 If- May 17

I think the first time I saw a trailer for this was some time last year. It looks cute, but I have no intention in seeing it. I'm not exactly sure where it stands in terms of critics or box office. But I see this as a fun movie for a family to see.


 The Garfield Movie- May 24

Chris Pratt has been kicking butt with these voice roles. First The Super Mario Bros Movie, now this. I have no intention in seeing this. No particular reason, I just don't care enough to see it. This is definitely not gonna be critically acclaimed, but not necessarily hated either. I see this having similar reception to Super Mario Bros, but not doing better than it. Super Mario Bros was a phenomenon.


 
 Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga- May 24

I personally am not a big fan of Mad Max: Fury Road. I understand why it's acclaimed, but because of my lack of care for that movie I will not be seeing this one. It's probably going to do very well in terms of box office due to the popularity of Fury Road and Furiosa (that and Anya-Taylor Joy was a very good casting). I will gladly leave the reception to the critics.


The only other major movie coming out this month is Back To Black, which I will go see. 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...
