'It's Review: Absolutely terrifying, Skarsgard is sensational!


🎈It🎈Review🎈10/10🎈

Firstly I would like to congratulate 'It' on winning my first 10/10 score since I started back in July!

NOW here Is why 'It' got awarded the first 10/10: I am not afraid of clowns one bit, I find them rather hysterical (obviously) and ridiculous looking, so I never really had the heebiegeebies, nor have I ever really understood why people are afraid of them... Well that was until I saw Bill Skarsgard's take on Pennywise the dancing clown who has come back to the small town Derry to haunt 7 young outcasts who must unite together to overcome there deepest fears. Holy f****** sh** he was terrifying, like seriously terrifying, like OMG terrifyingly terrifying. You just cannot fathom how scary he was. The hole way through he just had you so engulfed in the movie while also simultaneously making you feel petrified to even look at him nor listen for that matter. He was so creepy and unsettling so kudos to Andy Muschietti for the great casting choices all round. Bill Skarsgard is bloody brilliant, everything about him and his character just oozed brilliance.

The young cast were brilliant, forming strong bonds with each other and showing great chemistry. There was a couple of standout stars that really caught my eye, obviously Finn Wolfhard as Richie Tozier, he was really funny and seemed to be the glue of the group with all the funny jokes (one unfunny), Sophia Lillis who plays the young and troubled Beverley Marsh, Jaeden Lieberher as Ben Denbrough the leader of the group, the big brother of littles lost Georgie. Last but not least my favourite of them all, Jack Dylan Grazer as Eddie Kaspbrak the kid that has a fear of germs. He is by far the funniest young star of the group and the most adorable, I think he could be a big star, every time he was on screen i was ither like aaawwww or laughing.

The pacing was on point the hole way through, the tone was brilliant, the dialogue was sensational, cast phenomenal, and scare-factor is second to none on all basis. The script was brilliant. I absolutely loved everything, Andy Muschietti did an an amazing job and i hope he directs number 2. I was constantly on edge and want to try and face "IT" again

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

• 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!

• 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,
