HERE'S MY 15 MOVIES THAT WILL SURELY LEAVE YOUR INSIDES FEELING NUMB!!


Ok now being a man I'm somewhat sceptical of doing this list, but I watch anything and everything and I also have a heart and these films pull at my heartstrings so if your having "one of them days" (Which we all have mind you), Whip out the ice cream and get depressed. So on that note, here is my top 15 gut-renching films for you to cry to.

 1) The boy in striped pyjamas

 The son of a Nazi befriends a Jewish prisoner in a concentration camp and disaster strikes when he finds himself on the wrong side of the fence. Really kills your insides and destroys your soul. You will be sad for days.


2) Kubo and the Two Strings 

 One of the most beautiful films I have ever seen. From start to finish such a warming/loving story and at the heart of it a young boy who is inspirational. Personally for me I cried several times throughout so this earns it second place.

3) If I Stay 

 All I'll say is prepare to feel broken and emotionally numb inside.

4) The impossible

 Your tear ducts will be dehydrated after this tale based on real life events that took place during the Tsunami in Thailand in 2004. 

5) The Fault in our Stars

 Really not okay after watching this. Okay?

6) Stepmom 

 There is nothing worse than thinking about losing your mum, so it's no surprise that this flick about a family whose mum is battling cancer is utterly heartbreaking.

7) UP

 When the love of Carl's life dies, he is heartbroken and wonders how he will go on alone. Can an accidental adventure in a flying house with nothing but a dog and a boy scout help put his heart back together?

8) The Notebook

 I've heard so many woman say to me that this is the dreamiest, most romantic story of all time. But not all love stories have a happy ending, do they?

9) My Sister's Keeper

 Anna is the only one who can save her sister Kate's life. But what if she doesn't want to give up the rights to her own body?

10) Armageddon

 A group of astronauts go into space to save the world from an asteroid set to collide with Earth. But not all of them will come home alive.

11) Marley and Me

 Marley might not be the best dog, but if you've ever had a pet, you'll know that won't stop you loving them more than potentially your own family. It makes us want to cry just thinking about this film. It gets me every time.

12) Titanic

 Never let go Jack. NEVER LET GO.

13) A Monster Calls

 A young boy struggling with life with his mum suffering from a terminal illness, but has he found a friend in a monster?

14) P.S I love you

 When Holly's husband dies, he sends her a list of challenges from beyond the grave. So romantic, but SO freaking heartbreaking.

15) Romeo and Juliet 

 The classic tale of star-crossed lovers never fails to get the old waterworks going. Even though we all know how it ends, you can't help hoping that this time, maybe things will turn out different.

Paul Thomas Anderson Week: 'There Will Be Blood' Review!

Image
• There Will Be Blood, 2007 • 8.2/10 • Firstly, I would like to start with Daniel Day Lewis' mesmerizing performance as the ruthless oil prospector, Daniel Plainview. The scumbag cons local landowners into selling their valuable land for pittance, and then he comes along like a "straw" and "sucks it all up," leaving him very wealthy and everyone else in his way. Paul Dano, Wow, do you really expect anything less than magic when it comes to him acting, he's a true tour de force. I wish we had preachers like Eli Sunday up at my local church. Johnny Greenwood's score is brilliant, it really gets under your skin, you then combine that with the gorgeous cinematography, smart screenplay and the brilliant acting, you then have yourself a film where even if your not paying complete attention, you will still hate the lead by the end, all the same! Yeah, I did just say that. I'm sorry peeps but it got a little boring at times (it didn't keep me hook

'Tomb Raider' Review: First Successful Game Adaptation! Kudos!

Image
• Tomb Raider, 2018 • 7.9/10 • Alicia Vikander gives Lara depth and personality much like Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones. She's vulnerable, but she's also stubborn and focused to survive on her own and has never lost hope that she'll once again see her father. The story is built on the reboot of the video game series, but takes another way after the arrival at the destination where most of the action takes place. When the story follows the video game it has weaknesses (as so many games adaptations do), but when it stands on its own, it shows glimpses of coming adventures for Lara Croft that makes you want more -- much because of Vikanders grounded performance. The script is by no means perfect, the CGI was a bit spotty in places, and yes there are a few cliches and overused story devices here and there, but overall it is an enjoyable film and our first successful game adaptation! Yesss! P.S - Dominc West was the perfect choice for Mr. Croft!

'Love, Simon' Review: What A Nice Surprise!

Image
• Love, Simon • Spoiler-Free • 8.7/10 • Well, what a surprise.... Don't get me wrong, the story of 'Love, Simon' has pretty much all been done before, just not executed as well. Bar the classic stereotypes and some cheesy moments, this film had me laughing out loud and crying even louder! Tbh when you watch a film like this, you normally expect it to try to be, too clever, too cute and too precious, but boy I have never been so far off the mark. The intelligence, depth, and charm were all legitimate and sincere here and it truly made the film into something rather special. It's funny, sweet, caring, true, real, and should pretty much be labelled a "True Story" for all its worth. The acting on all accounts was second-to-none but Josh Duhamel had the biggest tear-jerking scene going! I was sobbing like a real man! And Nick Robinson was believable and nothing short of phenomenal! Kudos! If you can get past the cheese-factor, you will definetly Love,
