Good, Yes. Best Since Endgame, NO!

 


Marvel has been up and down for years now, and because of that I was conflicted on whether or not I wanted to see this movie. I already passed on Captain America anyway and seeing this somewhat felt like a chore. With that being said, I went ahead and gave it a shot. The movie centers on Florence Pugh's character, who's currently depressed. Her and 2 other losers, the Ghost chick and bootleg Captain America, are screwed over by Julie Louis-Dreyfuss and now they have to stop her from possibly weaponizing 'Bob' from Top Gun with a little help from Bucky and Hopper- I mean the Red Guardian.

The movie was good, I just don't think it's amazing. I admire what it was doing in terms of how it approaches depression and trauma. It did it relatively well, but it was nothing groundbreaking. Pugh, Harbour and Pullman were probably my favorites. There was actually a scene involving Harbour and Pugh that was kind of adorable and the final battle resolution was also really sweet. I did not care for John-Kamen and Russell was just a jerk the entire time. Stan was fine and I wanted to punch Louis-Dreyfuss. Honestly, I hope her character dies in the future. Not so sure how I feel about the ending (which I of course will not reveal), it depends on what they do with this concept in future movies. 

This has been claimed to be the best thing since Avengers: Endgame. That most certainly is NOT TRUE, that honor belongs to No Way Home. But I was pleasantly surprised by this film. And I really hope Fantastic Four doesn't suck. Thanks For Reading.

First Day Of 2024/2025 Awards Race

  It is about that time of year again where Hollywood gives out its most prestigious awards to most of the time the least deserving. But that doesn't mean I'm not gonna pay attention like always. But this year we will be shaking things up a little. Allow me to explain; Here's How This Works: Each year, I will have a target subject I'm rooting for this season. When the nominations for each award show are announced, I will do a small commentary on whether or not the subject has a chance of winning. However, this year instead of focusing on just the target, I will also be focusing on those I think are frontrunners in different categories for the season as a whole, whether I'm rooting for them or not.  I will most likely say a last minute thought the day before the award show. I will be tracking down all the way up to the big dogs: THE OSCARS. The Awards: We will be focusing on 5 awards; -The Golden Globes -The BAFTA's -The Critics Choice -The SAG Awards and Of Cour...

Red One & The Best Christmas Pageant Ever

I present to you, a Christmas Double Review. Red One centers on The Rock and Captain America trying to find J.K. Simmons (Santa) after he's been kidnapped. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever  is obviously based on the book of the same name and of course involves throwing a Christmas pageant with some of the worst kids in existence.  Red One This was a very strange movie. I don't hate it as much as others do, but I see why people hate it. I will admit there were some parts that were a little too ridiculous and I didn't laugh as much as I would've liked. Also, with all due respect to Kiernan Shipka, she was not a good casting for the main villain. Her performance just didn't work for me. She wasn't intimidating at all, and she still looks like a child. I'm sorry but I just could not take her seriously. But I also feel it had some heartwarming moments as well, particularly involving Chris Evans' character and his son. I wouldn't say this movie was good, bu...
