    Attack on Titan: Crimson Bow and Arrow

    ★★★★

    The opening episodes of Attack on Titan are a bit dry, but it so quickly turns into an engaging story. Its the type of series where you just have to know what comes next.

    ★★

    Using Sigor Ros’ Saeglopur in the opening of a movie like this should be a crime. I’ll give them credit for making an at least somewhat entertaining movie out of what is undoubtedly the most boring and stupid superhero. They definitely took it in a different direction right off the hop, considering that Mamoa looks nothing like traditional Aquaman, but they clearly needed to find a way to make him cooler and I guess they succeeded in that respect. But beyond that, this is paint-by-numbers for a superhero movie, and it’s still kind of boring and stupid.

    ★★★★

    This movie does a really good job of evoking emotions related to the desperation of outback small towns. Its brutal in its presentation and you can't help but feel a little bit gross after having watched it (especially and unfortunately for the kangaroo hunt scenes). This is definitely an interesting take on a horror film but I enjoyed the watch.

    Really great sound and cinematography. This movie does a great job at making you feel uncomfortable all throughout. Definitely a great watch and one I plan to watch again.
