Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
Everything is great and I want more of this
I just watch this a few days ago and I wanted to think about how this movie is so good for new and old fans to the spider-man media. The animation, the story, and characters are great. I can't say enough to watch it.
Sony also put a lot of spoiler contain in their trailers but two side villain characters that were not in the trailers I made me surprised was Doc Ock as a female character and Prowler who was revealed to be Miles' uncle who was working with Kingpin and lastly Gwen Stacy's universe and her relationship with the Lizard.
So first off with Doc Ock being called as "olivia octavius" or "Liv" has a more sinister personality and look than we known and loved throughout the years as a villain for spider-man and a very good change of paste for the film with a lot of characters to balance out. When she appeared in the movie for the first time I thought she was a character that appears only once and doesn't do anything for the plot. However that all changed when she was examining Peter Parker in his late 30's from another dimension. It seems to me that this version of Doc Ock sort of did dated her blond Peter Parker in his late 20's. Anyways she is a great character in the film and I hope she comes more of a full villain in the second movie.
Prowler, I did not expect that twist to happen in a children film to be Miles' uncle that he looked up to his years. That moment when he refuses to kill his nephew on top of Aunt May's house. Then the Kingpin shot Mile's uncle in the back and he told Miles the he failed him as family member, it makes me even sad that Miles' father sees his dead body in the alley and broke down because even though he doesn't make as much money as him. He is still is his brother.
Lastly in Gwen Stacy's universe. She became spider-woman instead of Peter. Just like in the comics, Peter has been too much to the point where he turned into the lizard instead of Curt Conners and she had to kill him. Even though she lied to Miles to wants to help out and get back to her own universe by saying, "friend." However that is not the case, either Gwen didn't stop the bullying from happen or didn't noticed. In her expressions throughout the film it is implied that they loved each other and dated before the event when Peter became the lizard in her universe.
There are few things in this movie that sort of hard for viewers to get through is the movie is slow in the beginning because you are look at Miles' story and also jump scares. There is a jump scare when Miles sees the radioactive spider on the ground and it glitched making a loud in the theater. I heard kids screaming and it made me jumped out of my seat.
Anyways, it is recommended to say through the end of this film because Miguel from Spider-man 2099 universe comes in the post credit scene as he talks to his AI as he goes into another dimension and he went into the pointing spider-man meme.
Voltron Force (2011)
You can try to watch this as a guilty pleasure
1. Summary Voltron Force is sort of like a reboot and continuation to the original 80's Voltron but starts off after the lions were decommissioned and it's up to a boy named, Daniel to live out his dream to pilot the Black Lion by entering in the Garrison.
2. Story In my opinion the beginning is terrible until the near end where it is a bit better. However where was this in the beginning to make this series strong throughout the series. After the lions were decommissioned, the paladins went on with their lives and Keith is fugitive but we don't know the reason why he is. It would've been better if they could explain things better like to explain the build up of Daniel's backstory on how he wanted to be a paladin of Voltron and the build up how his character can be stronger in the show so the story could be stronger and memorable as it is today. However, people can just watch the show as a guilty pleasure because they can watch this show for the fights but not the story or characters.
3. Characters The character in the show are stale as bread. All the characters we have to explain to ourselves of their past in one scene and that's it and that's what we got because we have to assume about every characters' backstory and how did they got to the point in the show. I felt nothing for these characters because the original paladins of Voltron as well because the show doesn't go in depth of every character, it assumes that you watched the previous adaptations of Voltron. That's is not good when the main character is pretty much the same as any main character and makes it worst is that I felt nothing for all the characters but only the friendship between each other. That is pretty much that we got throughout the show.
Villains - Pretty simple and good villains of the show to show how they are up against with the lead characters.
4. Animation & Sound The animation is not to the standards of other series that blended CGI and animation. The CGI is very noticeable and didn't felt real to the character interacting them and the CGI by itself what is in its own different world. Sometimes when Voltron is formed it is not as bulky as previous adaptations of Voltron but it wasn't that great with the scale at times to the backgrounds but at least the CGI moments matches whenever there is a ro-beasts around.
-The voice acting is fine and tolerable because the dialogue is for children and I've seen worst voice acting for this
Action Scenes: The weapons while using are very good and I can watch this show just for the action because Voltron and Ro-beasts work fine together because it's CGI against CGI instead of animation used. Also I really do like the weapons that Voltron from every lion's unique ability and I would like if they could come back as later adaptations.
Results - I give this result because this show does has the potential but it lack the story and characters to even care about this show. You can just watch this show out of guilty pleasure because of the fights and looking up from your computer and laugh how terrible it is. There is nothing that is given back if it you want to watch this show for the characters, but my opinion those characters can be stale as a loaf of bread and that's basically what you get for this entire series. You can get something good out of that bread but there is nothing to add with.
Allegiant (2016)
I was bored from the start of the movie
For me this movie serious fails when the plot is not original. It is almost like they put in different things and call it a movie with on of the worst CGI moments since I watch Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance.
This movie is trying to squeeze whatever is left in the franchise and make some money off of it.
***
When this movie is combine with bad writing, CGI effects, and characters you don't care whatsoever...This movie fails on its own from the start. (Which I mostly did because I kept skipping parts of the movie that is good and they still kept talking in a room with CGI like "Star Wars Episode 1" but at least in Star Wars you can just forgive that because the writing is a bit better than in this film.)
If you want to watch this movie, just don't...It is a waste of time and money to contribute to this film and will make it more money and more wasteful book adaptation to movies are going to be worst than this pile of garbage.
The Mysterious Geographic Explorations of Jasper Morello (2005)
Very narrative story driven & Has a different style of animation that I've never seen before
This film is very gorgeous of its unsettling themes of Gothic, and horror. The animation is very different than most animation films that I've seen because for most of the movie it just a silhouette. However they put the details of buttons on their clothes to recognized class. Our main character, Jasper Morello's clothing is very nice and the audience knows that he is intelligent because of his career of being a geographic. However at the beginning of the film, he feels unhappy of one little mistake during one of his explorations leads one of the crew members died.
This film made me feel for the main character a lot and he cares about the people of his city that he lives in. I can't say that much of the climax but I have to say that it is very creepy and gets into the monster horror element of the story. And it is something that first time audience has to experience first.
My only complains about the film is the story is just narrative driven by at the end of the film someone finds his journal and reads it because my theory suggest that Jasper's city that he lives in no longer exists because of the plague has already decreased the human population. And after a long period of time, someone found the journal and reference the title of the film. That he is a "mysterious geographic" and his explorations. And that is what I believe this is the whole point of the title of the film, and the last of the human population that found his journal use that to cure the plague that spread in Jasper's world.
Gattaca (1997)
a very underrated and a brilliant film
I watch this film only once as for a school paper. The more I watch this film. The more I understand the feelings between our main character, Vincent. Played by Ethan Hawke. He brilliantly play as this role of a person who is considered as undesirable character and that influenced him to become the best person he could. But no matter how he approach his life and what he can do. His genes just considered him as "in-valid" to get the job that he dreams of. Which is going to space.
This film made me felt for the character so much that I happens to many people. The film is so cinematic because he is a janitor at the Gattaca Aerospace Corporation. And everyday when he clean the glass roofs the building. They he watches the rocket ship lift off and go into space and says to the audience the he was so close to gaining his own dreams to come true.
Then one day he had a chance to be pose as a "valid" that works for the corporation and finally before that dream happens he gets caught in a situation that he is falsely accused of killing a employer.
This film has some aspects of achieving dreams, and racism between the characters. When Vincent is posing for a valid to work at the corporation. Jerome (played by Jude Law) the man Vincent is posing as got into an car accident outside the country because of his superior genes failed him when he got second in a swimming contest and that drove him the point to attempted suicide.
This script between Vincent and Jerome have the perfect chemistry. They take care for one other because Jerome and Vincent truly does change at the end of the film and it is very sad to see the very end of this film because Jude Law has done the role perfectly as the person who has it all and drops down the ladder because his genes did not work to be superior. And Vincent wants to get up the top but his genes were already inferior since the day he was born.
There is a love story with Vincent and other side character named Irene (played by Uma Thurman). This character Irene also plays a huge role as for more an example for inferior and superior because of her problems that she is unfit but since she is born from the same superior genes. It helps the movie a bit of on what side Irene is on. The superior or the inferior. Either way her choice in the film is decided by Vincent's actions that he is not interested in her gene.
This film is great for start to end. Even though the film is very slow pace. It tells the story very well done of this society that Vincent lives him. Also the ending of the film is very ambiguous. It made me thought about the ending with the doctor talking about his inferior son and he is great fan of him and lets Vincent to be on the ship regardless of his genes. And when he goes to see space for the first time. Which I can't spoil because I want people think genuinely about the ambiguous ending because what happens after he comes back to earth and continue poses as Jerome, what about the relationship with Irene, and does his life expectancy was a lie and his genes were superior than a machine.
Deadpool (2016)
I enjoyed watching this movie. It made me have the feels.
After watching this film, it made me feel so much for the character of Deadpool. But also how he stays true to his character. It broke me when I see him in the streets after Wade got into the project and then survive. It made me feel for him because I care about him and even for his love.
Also the other characters in the film bound off perfectly from each other and Deadpool cracks up jokes and it hits real hard. Like the action figure that Wade picks up in the film is himself from the XMen origins: Woverine. Is himself and made me chucked to put that little easter egg in there to make fun of that film.
Also the actions scenes are well made and very smart. And made me believe that Deadpool is the most overpowering character in the Marvel series.
Always, I had fun time watching this film. I was on the edge of my seat watching this film because I did not know what is going to happen because it is Deadpool is Deadpool. And I liked how this film fix everything and put it in the Marvel cinematic universe.
Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)
Good scenes but I would like if Ultron won for a while for at least part of the movie
In the first act of the movie when Ultron is created and they say he is in the internet. Because in this age if a robots has its own mind like humans. Then Ultron can pretty much destroy the whole world because humans are so in electrons and Ultron can do anything with his power to change the internet. I would like that the movie has Ultron taking over the world and mostly destroyed and humanity his on it own for a few years before one of the avengers goes into the past and stop Stark from using Loki's scepter. That would make an interesting movie that the point of the movie is Stark using the scepter. However there would not be any Vision so that would be hard to create him without the research. Anyways this movie has good action scenes, characters are good, and lots of character development with Hawkeye and the Black Widow. There are bits of the movie that made me laugh. However it lack the story logic and pacing like the first avengers is. After watching this film I highly watch "how it should have ended videos" of this film because it's worth it.
Iron Man (2008)
very fun and well acted movie
This is one of my first marvel movie made me want to watch other adaptations of marvel's works. The first act may be slow but there are some scenes that made me cry because of what happened to Tony Stark and changed him to become Iron Man. I have noticed a little bit of parallels with some scenes with Captain America. The people who died when they become Iron Man or Captain America the person who dies will points to their chest and to represent that they have a heart to protect the people who they cared about and I like how they reuse that same scene with Captain America. During the second act while he is building and test flying his suits I will always laugh at them because he recorded for himself and see if there is any improvement on them. Which shows of his intelligence of making things other than building engines for hot rods which he done that already and show that in the film which also makes him a car mechanic like my Dad does. (except my Dad doesn't drink all the time like Stark does) Anyways I really do genuinely feel for his character a lot because of his abuse of alcohol, his personally to be an arse sometimes, and I felt really scared at times when the shrapnel in his chest would eventually kill him someday and how he has to deal with it for a pretty long time for a good doctor to remove it without killing him.
The Avengers (2012)
After watching this film many times. It really drags on.
I watch this film multiply times since it came out. I couldn't stop watching it and I kept watching over and over again. When I see this film today. I just realized it has some good moments and very well acted action scenes. I felt at the second act of the film slowed down the whole film, and I felt there was a rock on top of the Avengers and they are all just dragging it as it slowly goes on because has good scenes but the film goes from action and back to drama and goes right back to the action. With no sudden reasons that once it goes back to the drama scenes it really does really drags on until the next action scene happens. Has good and funny moments between the characters. I just feel that the pacing is very slow when transition to the next action scene to the next. Lucky Age of Ultron done the pacing a bit better but still has some scenes that drags the movie from continuing forward.
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2011)
this film is very disgusting
The first of Ghost Rider is alright but it still lost its touch on the script writing. However this film is suppose to be a re-vamped version of the film because that how i got the impression from this film because the cgi is very disgusting it makes me want to vomit every time I see the cgi because it was so god awful. I have to sit there in my seat just waiting for something interesting to happen. But like the first film, this film flawed even worst because the all the acts were really boring out of my mind that this film drain the life out of me. This movie is very sad because it never make any logical sense. And that phone call between with the devil. That method of filming is the worst because the film just feels like an awful old school editing film that it was edited by iMovie once and never checked to see after a few times that the film is actually boring.
True (2004)
Very fast pace film
This short film is very enjoying to watch from start to end. After the second time I watched this film I had better understanding of how it all started of its use of fast pace time elapse, still images, and cutting of the film as it is like a memory passing through that centers around him and his girlfriend. Even though he has a disability, throughout the entire film it didn't really bothered him as his blindness was just a part of his life. Although we don't get Francine's story with her relationship. The film is good to hear one side of the story of a romance gone bad because we, the audience to ourselves after the second time watching this film gets really good of what is the whole point of this film is trying to make out.
Treasure Planet (2002)
Most underrated Disney movie ever
Inspired by the book "Treasure Island" by Robert Louis Steveson. (which he also wrote "Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde). Treasure Planet needs to be watched multiple times to understand the whole world of Jim Hawkins. It has this realist features if you understand what he has been through before the film started. It shows Jim that he is trying to find who he is and what he really wants in his life and it is really rewarding at the end. Jim just wants to redeem himself in order to proving what he is by going on an adventure to find the famous Captain Flint's treasure. Some minor characters are great at times and slides off at times but it does fit the space pirate Sci-fi adventure.
