Overboard (2018)
Pretty good!
This is just a funny and actually pretty good comedy. Halfway the movie I didn't know how it would end, that's already quite surprising for a romcom. And in addition to the comedy, there was some positivity in it as well. So altogether pretty good!
Hacksaw Ridge (2016)
Great principles, but what's it all for?
This is a great movie about how to stand for your principles when everyone else around you is threatening them. That's all 7 points.
The -3 points are becase I don't care too much about all the war scenes.... But mainly because I dob't understand (know?) enough about the America vs Japan part of the WW II, I guess. If you don;t know why they are sacrificing their lives, it's hard to admire (and feel empathy with) the army. I guess being a European doesn't help. I need explanation what this war/fight is good for at all. We're not as pro war/guns as the US...
The Book of Eli (2010)
Intriguing but sometimes unbelievable
I really like how Eli is dedicated to his goal, and how he is trying to act as moral as possible in an evil world. He seems to only kill when necessary, and he's isn't when he does.
I only realised while reading the reviews that he was actually blind... Although it's a beautiful plot twist, it's also one extra bit of unbelievableness. I always find it hard to believe that one person keeps killing all the many others.
Altogether a wonderful movie, intriguing to me how he works towards his goal. We need that level of responsibility and community spirit in our days.
