While We're Young Movie Review

So the other night I saw the movie While We're Young, and I know this movie has been out for some time, and this is my second viewing, but I felt that I should review this movie.
So the movie follows Josh (Ben Stiller) and his wife Cornelia (Naomi Watts) as they go through life being a bit indecisive. Josh has been working on a documentary for around ten years and everyone wants him to just finish this already, even if they don't come out and say it. The couple's lives change when they meet young hipsterish couple Jamie (Adam Driver) and Darby (Amanda Seyfried).
This is an A24 film, and looking through there filmography, they have made a ton more movies than I thought they have. This is still a fairly new company but they have had a hand in other films like The Spectacular Now, Ex Machina, Room, The Witch, and The Disaster Artist.
So in While We're Young, The color scheme of this movie is perfect and fits the film in a certain way that gives me a loss for words.
The music could have been better at times, but it was not bad overall. I do think the arrangement was appropriate all in all.
The actors do a phenomenal job! Each and everyone gives an amazing performance, and they each play there characters perfectly. While We're Young has a great cast and I can not see anyone else play the characters that are portrayed, and only this cast could pull it off!
I believe you can watch While We're Young on amazon, and I would recommend watching this film if you have the time. This a nice somewhat relaxing, enjoyable experience that I recommend that you have.


final score: 4/5

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...
