The Meg Movie Review

The Meg is another shark film that is the way that you would exactly expect it to be, and it's pretty entertaining.

I don't think that I need to explain the plot of the film much, but it's basically Jason Statham vs Megalodon.
This movie is campy in all the right ways and it's a really fun ride. I know that I'm a little (lot) late to reviewing this movie but, gall darn it! I'm getting it done! This movie knows what it is, and it's fine with that.
Some of the dialogue is off at times. In a way, it's like the actors were like, "Alright I said the line, now give me the money," kind of way. Also some of the scenes came off funnier than they were meant to be.
To be honest, Jason Statham is the best part of this film. He kills it in his part and I can't see anyone else play his character. The Meg was almost written for him. It looked like he had fun with it and that's a good thing.
Overall, this is a fun shark film that is worth seeing in theaters. It's no Jaws, but it's still entertaining in the end.


final score: 3/5

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...

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...
