Road House (2024)
How did this get made and why did Jake Gyllenhaal join it?
From abismal acting and dialogue to jarringly bad cgi to flat music in action scenes and finally to Mcgregor.. it's just a bad movie with no real strong suit. Gyllenhaal & Daniela Melchior are.. fine. Both mailed it in but whatever. Everyone else, apart from some small roles, are just bad. Mcgregor being the cherry on top. And does he just walk like that in real life or is that an acting choice? All the people convinced Dave Bautista is the worst athlete turned actor, please leave the man alone for the new king.
The only good that came from this is a ripped Jake Gyllenhaal that can potentially be put to use somewhere else.
Chaos Walking (2021)
So so
After seeing the rating & reviews, and seeing how some over non Spider-Man roles have turned out for Holland, I was expecting bad. It's an average movie tho. Nothing amazing & nothing appalling. Add in my low expectations and it was a decent watch.
I like both these young actor and they've both faced some criticism after their respective breakout roles. Can't say I thought Uncharted turned out very good at all and have to look up Daisy Ridley's filmography to recall what else I've seen her in outside of Star Wars.. but even tho this is really kind of an average movie, it restores a bit of faith in them finding success.
Ms. Marvel (2022)
Enjoyable, loving show
Ms Marvel was great. It has some issues with plot convenience & easy resolutions. Plot points that feel like they should cause issues for characters just don't or get fixed far too easy. It's not some award winning serious drama. It's a fun action show with a primary demographic of younger adults that aren't white males. And that's why it's great. Her family is great, could watch them in any number of comedy shows. The best parts of the show really aren't about being a superhero, but seeing a brown girl and her family, her culture. And it's hugely creative. Some of the creativity was only in 1 or 2 episodes , would have been great to see it all throughout, but that's a high expectation. Really would double or triple the budget & workload. Really good music as well.
Super Cub (2021)
Sublime Simplicity
To be honest, it has almost no actual plot. And that's just fine. It's just about one characters development and how a Super Cub helps & changes them. It's the closest the Seinfeld's "a show about nothing" that I've seen a slice of life anime get.
Crisp & detailed art. Beautiful sound design.
Simply a joy to watch and nearly impossible to describe to someone and make them eager to watch.
