Rough Night Movie Review

So last night with one of my friends, we went and saw the film Rough Night, and well... It surpassed my expectations.
I only saw the trailer once or twice about a month ago, so I did not really remember much about it. When my friend and I saw it last night we both thought that it would be just a dumb party movie with cheap laughs. just a 2/5 film, but we were oh so wrong.
I will admit that it does start out like just another party film but when it gets to the part were they kill the striper, then it gets oh so good.
I was also surprised to see Bo Burnham! I love his work!
Also Lucia Aniello who wrote (and she also directed) this film with Paul W. Downs, they did a fantastic job with this script! Paul W. Downs also played the bachelor in this film, and I must say he did an impressive job with his comedy.
I also have to applaud Scarlett Johansson, Jillian Bell, Zoë Kravitz, Ilana Glazer, and Kate McKinnon, they all did a fantastic job, and each gave us a good laugh throughout the film. Each of them brought such a level of comedic talent that is greatly appreciated.
One of my complaints though for the film is that some of the lines are kind of weak sometimes, but thankfully that is a rare occurrence. Most of the lines are delivered naturally and appear to be what that person would actually say.
I'm thinking that this is one of the surprise films of the year that more people should take the time to go out and see.


final score: 4/5

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review This Was My Dad's Idea Well... I went and saw Dora and the Lost City of Gold today with my dad, and... the film was a lot funnier than it has any right to be. Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a live action adaptation of the Dora tv show on Nickelodeon. Dora, now a teenager, is sent to the City to live with her cousin, Diego, while her parents go exploring for a lost City. When her parents go missing, Dora and her new friends go and search for her parents. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but the movie wasn't half bad. There is a ton of tongue and cheek humor. There is some cringe to the Dora and the Lost City of Gold too, but remember, this is a movie made for kids. As a kids film, it does a fine job. The acting was fine, and for a kids film, everyone did alright. Isabela Moner, who played Dora, did a good job portraying the character from what I remember about the show when I was very young. What surprised...

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far The funniest show I've seen in years I've been watching a show on Netflix called Norsemen, and I swear this is the funniest show I've seen in years! I can't understate how funny this show can really be, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say about 90% of the jokes land. Norsemen starts off in 790 AD, and follows a few Vikings and their slaves. The show goes through their lives and their trials, but it's done with a comedic spin. If you haven't yet, watch the trailer above to get a better idea of the show. I will say this, this show reminds me of Monty Python ! Some of the jokes Norsemen  are gut busting, and will almost have you rolling on the floor laughing. In an age of bad comedies this show is gold.  I just started watching season 2 the other day, and I just want to keep watching. The episodes are about a half hour long each, and it's the perfect time frame to get the story across. I wouldn't c...
