Oppenheimer (2023)
Scene cuts were jarring
If the scene cuts weren't so jarring and maybe years posted in the scenes which flip back and forth I'd give it a 10/10. Sure I could assume this scene was late 1939 and that scene was 1941/1942 and this scene was 1955 but it was very confusing and until halfway or so through the movie I was guessing most of the time. Fantastic movie overall though, lead actor was phenomenal, I loved the twists that came through the movie knowing just enough to be dangerous about Oppenheimer the man I thoroughly enjoyed the movie for entertainment and education with a grain of salt. RDJs character seemed a bit weak for him and the portrayal of the President seemed odd to me.
War Dogs (2016)
Ever seen Lord of War or Wolf of Wall Street or maybe even both?
Ever seen Lord of War or Wolf of Wall Street or maybe even both? This film was quite enjoyable at the most basic level. There were some interesting ways the story was told as well which certainly spiced something's up and had you caring about the characters in the movie. Obviously the point. The biggest flaw I have with the movie is I know with certainty it was release after the two films mentioned in the title and it reminded me of one of those two films multiple times in the movie. Not a pure rip off by any means but I don't know that I've ever watched a film and been reminded of two totally unrelated movies ever as much as this experience. Worth a watch but be prepared for Deja vu.
