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.

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...
