IMDb

It’s a Buster Keaton movie, no need for words. Literally, as this silent movie reminds us that comedy can be simple, yet super effective. Laughed my ass off, the stunts were amazing, the music was brilliant. 6 popcorns, and it goes to the vault.

Something something Cortana, something something Master Chief. If you played the game, you’ll like the show. If you’re new to the Halo universe, you’ll love it.

Pew pew.

Death on the Nile (2022)

Death on the Nile (2022) Trailer

🍿🍿🍿 / 5

IMDb

The year is 2022, so following its successful reboot, it’s time for another episode of Assassin’s Creed: Origins! Oh wait, this is Death on the Nile and it’s a movie, despite the heavy-using CGI of the Nile landscape and over-saturated colour palette.

The movie is quite catchy, employing a great cast, employing a ton of A-listers, like Wonder Woman, that girl from Black Panther/Mirror, the redhead wife of Jon Snow, and undercover Ali G. Oh wait, someone just whispered that’s actually Russell Brand, one of Sasha Baron Cohen’s personas. Whatever.

The movie itself is actually good, a decent watch for a Sunday evening with a bowl of popcorn and some Egyptian coffee, or tea. Dunno what they brew between the pyramids. The CGI is nice, the way-too-bright colours are okey and the story is twisty and engaging enough, just as with any Poirot movie, with the long panning line-ups and the fact that everyone feels like the killer at some point. The movie is interesting enough, but the ending disappoints. Three popcorns and a waste of good actors.

Severance (2022-)

Severance (2022-) Trailer

🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿 / 5

IMDb

Mark leads a team of office workers whose memories have been surgically divided between their work and personal lives. When a mysterious colleague appears outside of the office, it begins a journey to discover the truth about their jobs.

Great cast, small minimalist and sterile setting, excellent directing by Ben Stiller, excellent acting by the entire cast (with great accolades for John Turturro, Christopher Walken, Patricia Arquette, and many other A-listers). And the music is spot on.

I’ve only seen the first two episodes, but it’s definitely got a firm grip on me and might be the best show of the year. It has a great dystopia feeling, with an impending doom feeling. It reminds me a bit of the British Utopia TV series, but with more white and less neon colours.

Jackass Forever (2022)

Jackass Forever (2022) Trailer

🍿🍿🍿🍿 / 5

IMDb

The boys are back with a new Jackass movie. It doesn’t click the same way the old ones did, I’m not sure if it is because I got older or they got older, but some of the gags were meh. However, they still had a few good ones, the kind where you spit your coffee good. I loved the throwbacks to some old gags.

In other news, Knoxville has white hair, Pontius looks like a hobo, Wee-man is old, Preston is mostly decorative (they have a new, young, fat guy to do his gags), Dave England looks like a grandma, Bam didn’t make it into the movie, Steve-O is doing great but hasn’t lost his craziness.

They have some new young fellas with them, some new blood to be used and abused. While they’re good cannon meat, I don’t think they have the charisma and pizzazz to have a show of their own.

All in all, it’s nice to see some new trauma-inducing Jackass, and I think the guys still have it, but they’re slowly getting out of good ideas. Still worth a watch. Four popcorns and a hard hat ⛑️

Turning Red (2022)

IMDb

Another fun animation by Disney/Pixar, this time about what happens when a thirteen year old girl receives the ability of “poofing” into a giant red panda whenever her emotions overwhelm her.

Of course, it’s got the traditional Pixar/Disney movie emotional roller-coaster, the movie start fun, hits a rough patch, to eventually fix the situation and for everything to turn fine in the end. But you already knew that. Still, a very good movie to watch. 5 popcorns and a 🐼.

It’s later than you think

Time travel comedy with the always-funny Ryan Reynolds. Nice effects, cute story, and it was nice to see the little Walker Scobell play a good young RR. Good performance by Mark Ruffalo as well, and Jennifer Garner is still hot, even if she’s like 84. Good movie, great watch. Four popcorns.

IMDb

A broken army man. A broken army dog. A connection in the making, an adventure is developing. A sometimes emotional, sometimes funny story if you can get over the US-army-best-army narrative.

I’m a sucker for dogs and dog movies, this was entertaining enough, so it gets 5 popcorns and a dog biscuit.

Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) Trailer

🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿 / 5

IMDb

This is by far the best movie of the lot (including the Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield trilogies). It wraps the Multiverse together in a nicely done story, it has the laughs, the cries, the booms, the zooms, and the feels. Stellar performances of the trilogy’s cast, Tom Holland being the most down-to-Earth-even-if-a-child Spider-Man ever, Marisa Tomei being an excellent Aunt May, and also adding previous villains Alfred Molina (as Dr. Otto Octavius), Willem Dafoe (as the Norman Osborn/Green Goblin), Jamie Foxx (as Matt Dillon) , as well as the other two Spider-Men (Maguire and Garfield) reprising their roles in an excellent way. Loved how each Peter Parker has its own personality and it’s really nice that they didn’t try to blend them into a single character. Excellent movie, six popcorns.
