Logan Movie Review

I saw Logan when it came out on the first night and showing in my town.
I was whisked away into an adventure that surpassed my expectations. The movie starts with a nice dramatic blue and orange color scheme, that becomes toned down but noticeable if you really look throughout the film. Hugh Jackman gives in my opinion one of the best performance's of his acting career, he has truly enveloped the character of Logan. Patrick Stewart gives a great performance as an aging Charles Xavier, he provides some depth to the world in the movie that is greatly appreciated. Then their is Dafne Keen, who plays Laura, most of you know by now (spoiler alert) that she is Logan's daughter. Laura is a complete badass!
The action scenes with Logan and Laura are so thrilling, they leave you wanting more. The action you do see is at the level of badass that has been craved for in "superhero" films. I put superhero in quotes because this film doesn't feel like a superhero movie, it feels like a dramatic action with some elements at times of a thriller that happens to have characters with some superhero type of powers, which works well for the film.
The score of the film blends perfectly that it doesn't over shadow the events of the film, nor does it undercast the film, it feels natural in the films setting.
My only complaints are that 1. The woman that was watching over Laura in the beginning of the film had some weak dialogue 2. I was hoping for what I call a campfire scene, which is were the characters bond more, which you do get some elements of that throughout the film but I think they could have sprinkled in some more.


finale score : 4.9/5

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...
