Emo The Musical Movie Review (Full Movie)


Emo The Musical is a 2017 film, based on a youtube short film, and it's better than the trailer looks.

So, I'm going to do this review in twice, yup twice. The reason is I'm going to review this movie here, then the youtube short film tomorrow.
So the movie follows Ethan, a disenfranchised emo, that is looking for friends. When he starts to date someone from an opposing group, things get complicated.
Now, my general take on musicals is that they are alright. Some would say that I don't like them flat out, but I just enjoy very few. I'm picky when it comes to this genre.
Now this movie does touch on some things that are relevant for the time this film was made and it pokes fun at it, which I actually find quite enjoyable. Sometimes it can be a bit over the top, which is a little cringey at times, but for the most part it's passable.
The actual songs are just kinda meh. They lifted at least one song from the original short film. The actors voices are decent, but not great. It's passable. The lyrics are a little cheesy, but they do seem to have fun with it.
They did miss the point of certain character from the original short at times, which was kinda annoying.
This movie is an alright watch, that has some really funny moments at times. Though it does have some problems. Give it a watch if you want to see a turn your brain off flick.


final score: 2.7/5

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...
