Godzilla King Of The Monsters Movie Review

Good Visuals, Bad Script 

I just saw the new Godzilla King Of The Monsters Movie, and I really had high hopes for this film, but it feel short.
Godzilla King Of The Monsters a government organization called Monarch and more specifically a family torn apart as Titans awaken and wreak havoc upon the earth.
I want to say the good first. Whenever Godzilla or any of the monsters are on the screen, then it's a visual spectacle. Seriously the team that made Godzilla and the other monsters, well done guys, pat yourselves on the back!
Now onto the bad. The dialogue sucks. It's just bad. There's no emotional investment from the actors, which is surprising because the movie has such a good cast of actors. You may be thinking to yourself, "Quintessentialist, what the high heck are you talking about? It's a action film where monsters fight each other! Enjoy the action!" Well you'd be right if the film focused more on the action. You get to see like 30 seconds of monsters fighting, then it cuts back to the people. It gets irritating.
What really is odd to me is, the pervious film in this franchise, Kong Skull Island, I really enjoyed. I just didn't care much for the film. I still like the actors, but I don't blame them for the films short comings. I think they got a bad script. I know what the director of the film was going for, but it almost feels like he might have been held back.
If you want to see Godzilla King Of The Monsters, wait for it to come out on Netflix or Hulu, or Amazon. Don't spend the money on it in theaters. It's really not worth it.



final score: 2.8/5

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...
