Hereditary Movie Review

Click picture to see on Amazon

Hereditary is a freaking creepy movie! By that I also mean that it's actually really good as well.
Okay, so this movie follows a family after the grandmother dies. Then some creepy stuff starts to happen, and if I say anything more I will be spoiling the movie.
The scares are some of the best of the year, or some of the best in the past few years. In some scenes there is pure terror and I believe that this movie is not for the faint of heart.
The lighting was perfect, and set the tone for the film in the best possible way that it could. The music in this movie was spot on in creating a sense of dread. The combination of the music and the lighting were in harmony with each other and I couldn't see any other way to improve upon it.
The cast of this movie all did a fantastic job. There were a couple stale performances at times but that was done by tertiary characters. The main cast really did give it their all it seemed and it is highly appreciated. I can't see anyone else being cast for their rolls in Hereditary.
A 24 has put out another great film and I am starting to love the work they do more and more with very movie that I see by them. If you really like horror films, then you will most likely love Hereditary.

final score: 4.4/5

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
