Malarkey

I guess I’m more into the usual robust sitcoms that put main emphasis on youth. Friends, HIMYM and so on. You see, Lucky Louie starts with the protagonist having one child, it involves the initial stages of a marital crisis, guys sitting on the bench with a bottle of beer and black guys who are supposed to fill the gap made by racism. I don’t think I have grown to such a stage. So far. This show definitely has a ton of ideas and I don’t mind the kind of humor at all, which is a bit more guy-oriented than otherwise. But as far as sitcoms go, this is average in my opinion.

Fifteen years ago, I couldn’t stand Bridget Jones, but I feel that this part took the main character’s stupidity down by about fifty percent and the authors decided to direct the humor rather towards the individual scenes. And you know what? It’s been a long time since I had this good of a laugh and it’s also been a very long time since I saw a comedy that would be really funny and at the same time not vulgar at all. And if I have, it was borderline adequate. So completely OK. There was so much humor in this film that I will only probably absorb it once I watch the movie again on TV. So, I must admit that I didn’t feel like seeing this movie in the cinema, but in the end I really enjoyed it. Excellent British humor the likes of which I haven’t seen in a movie or TV show in a long time.

After Deepwater Horizon, it’s really tough to give this Disney crap a better review than two water test valves. The reason why I’m comparing these is that what Deepwater Horizon has in common with this flick is the story, water and the link to the disaster is more than obvious as well. But what’s more important is that the real disaster was taken care of here by digital effects and the characters are laughable and they would almost make you cry rather than provide a serious emotional basis for a good quality emotional experience. The Finest Hour is simply a bad film and on top of that it might be the first serious Disney movie. In this case, it’s a very bad Disney movie, which I think should be aired on Disney Channel on Sunday after lunch. But it definitely doesn’t deserve to be shown in cinemas.

A classic sequel with everything that entails. Sometimes it will make you feel like throwing up and every now and then it draws its best jokes from the first part. I did watch it until the end, but I would love to run hooks through the mouths of that alpha-girl group and hang them somewhere out to dry.

While watching this movie, I felt as if I was watching life as it was. And that’s despite the fact I have never been to the American rural areas. In fact, I’ve never been to America as such. Nevertheless, a strong asset of this film is the humanity, honesty and genuineness of all the characters that play an important role in the movie. Also, while watching this film, I felt as if I was watching the French movie Untouchables. You can definitely see where the authors of the French movie got their inspiration from.

This is a melancholic romantic movie and it’s not only because we know today what happened to Anton Yelchin. However, having watched this movie, I’m literally sad that such a great actor had to depart so untimely. You see 5 to 7 has such a nice story and on top of that very strong dialogues. And since Bérenice Marlohe could mesmerize a man just by looking at him, everybody who likes good but sad stories from real life will find a little somethingto enjoy in this humble story. I also appreciate the ending, which is actually quite rough for a romantic movie. 5 to 7 might be an inconspicuous movie, but it will surprise you even more and it is definitely worth 90 minutes of everybody’s life.

The Irish nature lover Mary Reynolds, who is portrayed by the actress Emma Greenwell, who slightly resembles Reese Witherspoon, might be quiet and humble, but on the other hand her story is pretty nice to watch. You see, this story contains that incredibly positive mood, beautiful Irish countryside and the message of a person who is trying to do something for our planet, and that is something I’m ready to appreciate any time.

Essentially, you could say that it’s a rather adequately made absolute fantasy movie with everything that goes with it. So no Tolkien-like more history than fantasy or something in the style of The Game of Thrones, where it’s only after the end of the first season that you realize that this isn’t exactly a movie from the middle ages, but that it contains traces of fantasy as well. With this movie, that is clear already with the first digital orc character that appears in the first scene. At that point I realized that there was no other way, as the entire world of Warcraft is based mainly on nations such as elves, orcs, goblins, dwarves or the undead and humans are rather an ancillary nation. Or they do have their place in all this, but it is comparable to that of the other races. So, it took me about half the movie to get used to this film world. It was incredibly colorful, and the digital effect guys did a lot of work as well and looking for a part of the real world in this movie would be as hard as looking for a beer in a crate of Bud Light. But the second half of the movie got me up from my chair and despite initially thinking that I might not watch the movie to the end, the final war scene actually satisfied me, more or less. This doesn’t mean I would need to see the sequel, but on the other hand, I must agree that Blizzard managed to keep an eye of everything. I guess fans of “WoW” or “DotA” will probably die of bliss.

I didn’t know what I was getting into, which means I wasn’t repelled by the poor reviews here. However, at the beginning I was asking myself what kind of bullshit I decided to watch. The best part was when the two guys dared each other in the pub and started whipping each other with a wet rolled up towel trying to decide who can take more. I felt as if I was five again, playingin the sandbox with my cousin competing about who will build a bigger sand cake using the same bucket.

Martin Sheen played the character because of whom I decided to watch this film to the end. Other than that, I don’t understand why somebody has the tendency to turn the same old story into the same old movie thousand times over.
