The Foreigner Movie Review

So I just saw the movie The Foreigner, a few hours ago, and I must say that it is an entertaining watch that should be viewed at least once.
Jackie Chan stars in this film as a man hunting down those who killed his daughter, as she was caught in the cross fire of a different political event.
This is a serious action film, were I don't think they cracked a joke even once. And you know what? It was kinda nice to see a serious action film that was well acted.
One thing that I truly applaud the film for is that every major character whether they are good or bad, you do understand their motivations for their actions.
The music score is forgettable in this and it's defiantly not the main focus of this film. Yet the color grading was done nicely to make scenes bleak when they needed too. The camera work caught the action perfectly, so well done to the videographers of this film.
The fight scenes make sense in the movie, there is no action for the sake of action. Every fight is done for a reason, and it's understandable why it's happening.
This movie doesn't really strike me as something that will be very memorable, but if I feel in the mood for an action flick then this one is on the list.


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...

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...
