The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)

 

I didnt watch this movie in theatres because i thought having Chris Pratt as Mario was dumb but i actually liked the movie. The movie itself was BEAUTIFUL. like the DETAIL???? I really liked the art style. the coloring really scratched my brain. 

    i really liked how they worked the game style into the movie. like the lateral tracking shot to reflect the games. working the game sound effects into the movie and working the powerups in. I just really liked it. I dont think its a movie that i would rewatch for the plot. It was overall pretty predictable but the movie itself is so cool looking. I feel bad for judging this movie so hard without watching it but i just despise chris pratt so much. I dont even know why. I just cant. But i did actually like the characters. Jack Black as bowser was an amazing idea. Peach is such a cool character and i like how they did not make her a damsel in distress. Overall the movie was pretty good. Its not one of my top movies by any means but i get why it is other peoples.

What Jennifer Did (2024)

Ive heard of this case before. i really like true crime and theres so many youtubers that i watch religiously that have talked about this case but this presented way more information than those videos did. This documentary did an amazing job at breaking down every little detail of the case. I also really enjoyed the insight that i gained into the police investigation system and how they go about investigating a homicide case and all the pieces that go into it.  Cinematically this was pretty good. some of the other True crime documentaries ive seen struggle to make it a movie instead of just an organized combination of evidence but that was not the case with this one. obviously the main driving force of this was the interrogation recordings and the eventual confession but they mixed in some cinematic elements which really helped this feel less like a documentary and more like an actual movie  one thing that this gave that other videos on this case didn't was the specific invest...

Amadeus (1984)

Mr.H told me that this film is like if The Prestige didn't fumble the ending (i liked the ending of the Prestige but whatever.) I can for sure see elements of the Prestige in this film but i think the ending was even more confusing than it. There was no real explanation. I mean i understand the concept that Salieri killed Mozart, but its not really clear to me how he does. Does he work him to death? did he drive him insane with the whole masked guy asking for a funeral song thing? i really dont know. I also dont think this can really be compared to the Prestige. its a movie about revenge for sure, there are elements reflected in both films but the one sidedness of the revenge in this film is a major disconnect for me. I think the one sided revenge adds a lot to this story. it shows how consuming jealousy is  and i think it depicts Salieri getting absorbed by the jealousy and letting it drive him insane, even after Mozart is dead. however, it is not the same one upping, escalating h...

No Hard Feelings (2023)

Ok. To get this out of the way. I don't love Comedies. movies that are trying to be funny aren't super funny to me.  Anyways. this movie was pretty good first things first. Age Gap? HORRENDOUS. 32 AND 19???? WHAT DO YOU MEAN??? i dont care if the relationship is supposed to be fake. The whole point of the movie is she gets hired to date Percy and she gets the car when she has sex with him. THAT FEELS GROSS. thats like Leonardo DiCaprio Level. If we put that aside.... I thought the movie was pretty decent. I honestly saw it as more of a coming of age movie than a comedy. Its a huge commentary on the "American Dream" and how in order to have basic necessities (like a car/ house) you have to go to extreme lengths. Now realistically that probably wouldn't include grooming a 19 year old (hopefully) but you get the point.  there are two things that bothered me about the movie (other than the age gap). first off, people kept saying how J La looks old???? HELLO? She looks...
