Upgrade Movie Review

Upgrade... this movie... it surpassed my expectations by a whole ton!
Okay, this this movie follows Grey Trace (Logan Marshall-Green) as his wife and him are on there way home and their car gets hijacked. Then a group of people come up and kill Grey's wife, and shoot him in the neck paralyzing him. Now Grey is given an upgrade of a widget that is installed in his neck which gives him back his bodily functions and now he is out for revenge.
I saw this movie last night with one of my friends. I went into this movie expecting it to be a sort of turn your brain off and enjoy kinda film, but this movie is way better than that. The action is superb, and absolutely thrilling. Comedy is perfectly timed, and never misses a single beat. The drama is amazing and has some depth.
Granted there are a few problems with this movie, but they are very minor. Most of them can be overlooked.
The music works well for this movie, and it really adds to the overall impact of the film. Yet the music is really not that memorable. Whomever did the arrangement for this movie overall did a pretty good job in the end.
This movie is one that is worth seeing and if you like good action films I would recommend this movie.


final score: 4.5/5

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...

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 per...
