Equalizer 2 Movie Review

So I saw the movie Equalizer 2 earlier today, and it was an unexpected film in a way that I didn't really expect.
I want to say that the opening scene of this movie, is really, really good. It's probably one of my favorite scene in this movie. However, this movie doesn't live up to the first one, but it's still good in some ways.
One thing you should know about going into this movie is that there really isn't much action in this film. There is way less action than the first, actually. Which was kinda irritating going in and watching this. There are heavy drama moments in this film, and they are done well when presented in the film.
Equalizer 2 does drag on a bit though, and it's hard to figure out the sense of direction this film has. I swear that this movie sets up multiple different scenarios where the plot could really get going, but it doesn't deliver on them, as most are just subplots.
You will most likely have a good time in the theater with this, but this movie is long and you can really feel it drag at times. I probably won't buy this movie, but I may just revisit the first Equalizer movie instead.


final score: 3/5

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...
