Dunkirk Movie Review

I just got back from Dunkirk, which I watched with a friend. I have to say that this Film has almost left me speechless, so that is why I'm writing my thoughts of this Film down.
From the very start my heart was pounding, and my heart kept on pounding until the credits of this gorgeous Film.
At some moments I started to tear up a bit because of how impactful this Film can make you feel. From the very start you are thrown in to the Events of Dunkirk.
This Film is not about following a specific character arch from start to finish, no, it is about an event and what happened to the people in that event.
Each and every actor gave their best in this Film, from what I saw. They really became the characters that they were portraying.
The music score was produced by Hans Zimmer. It is a masterpiece of sound that fills the ears with the tension of the scenes and the anticipation of what is happening and what is to become of the men at Dunkirk.
Writer and Director Christopher Nolan did such an amazing job with this Film that I'm going to say it probably is the best picture of his career so far.
The dramatic colors of blue and orange, are blended perfectly in this Film, and all the other colors bring it full front, to let you know that this is happening.
There is a level of Heroism given by the British in the tragic event that took place, that makes you completely invested into what you are seeing.
A minor spoiler for the Film that I noticed is that you do not see the face of one German until the Film is about to wrap up.
This is a beautiful piece of art that deserves to be appreciated by those whom receive the pleasure of experiencing this masterpiece of art.
In some way I almost feel honored to have watched this Film, because any student of Film will want study this with great anticipation.
When award season comes up, this Film, this masterpiece of art has earned it's spot as best picture. I can't wait to buy this Film when it comes out on DVD.


final score: 5/5

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...
