The Room Movie Review

So last night I saw the masterpiece movie The Room in theaters written, directed, and starring Tommy Wiseau. This film breathes utter perfection.
The movie follows Johnny (Tommy Wiseau) as he lives with his fiancé Lisa, and everything is going well, until Lisa betrays Johnny...
The acting in The Room from Tommy Wiseau is dramatic, comedic, and heart wrenching. That man is the damn master of the art of acting. There is so much emotion to his performance, some can't handle the raw awesome power of it.
Then there is Lisa... freaking... Lisa... She tore Johnny apart... freaking... Lisa...
We also have Johnny's best friend Mark, who starts off as a good guy well intentioned guy that ends up possibly betraying Johnny (watch the movie to find out if he does or does not).
And how can we forget about Denny. Denny is a complex character that deals with the inner turmoil of love, and he always remains true to his friend Johnny. Which Johnny is like a father figure to Denny.
The camera work is genuinely interesting, with some really nice panning shots. The close ups in the film really capture the emotion of what the story is trying to portray.
The music to this godsend of a film is almost a character unto itself. This film has a unforgettable score, that is created with such passion, it really drives home the feeling that the film is portraying in each and every scene.
Regarding the lighting in this film, there is a masterstroke of balance between the shadowy and light areas in the movie.
This is such a great film! It deserves all of the Oscars! When the next award season is coming up, this film should be nominated for every award! If you haven't seen the masterpiece The Room yet, go and check it out!!!


final score: 5/5

Uncharted Movie Review

Uncharted Movie Review Not As Good As The Games I went and saw the movie Uncharted a while ago, and it was as I expected it to be. If you are a fan of the games, well... prepare for disappointment. Uncharted follows Nathan Drake (Tom Holland), a low level thief as he is recruited by Victor Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg) to go on a treasure hunt. As someone who has played some of the games, but not all, I have to say that the Uncharted film is what I thought it would be. A mishmash of all four games but not committing to any of them. The acting is a bit stale, and the plot is predictable. The camera work was fine, but the music was underused. Tom Holland should not have been Nathan Drake. He lacks the charisma, the attitude, and the charm. He may have passed for a teenage Nathan Drake, but he should have only been in a few scenes. I'm not the biggest fan of Tom Holland either long time readers may know. Now, onto Mark Wahlberg as Victor Sullivan. Mark Wahlberg is way too young to be playi

Coda Movie Review

Coda Movie Review This Deserved Best Picture So, I just got back from seeing Coda, and it was amazing! This was the second attempt to see this film as the first time, someone booked the entire theater for a private screening. I'm going to take from a summary from IMDB to summarize the plot: " As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) Ruby is the only hearing person in her deaf family. When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was  phenomenal, the  cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No performance fell flat. I perhaps would
