Watchmen Movie Review

Watchmen is a dark superhero movie that came out in 2009, and it's a really good movie.
First off I want to say that the actors in this movie do a phenomenal job in their roles. Really I'm going to give them an applause for their amazing performances.
The grittiness of this film is something I don't think a ton of people could handle. This movie has a lot of blood for a superhero film.
Another thing that I enjoy about the film that some may complain about is the length of it. Now I know that it might feel long, but I do think the length is appropriate to tell this story in a compelling manner.
The dynamics of the characters and their histories is told in a very compelling and interesting way.
There are some moral questions asked in this film about humanity, and I think that it does so in an interesting way for the most part.
Is this a perfect film? No. There are some problems with it, one of which is the CGI. I mean it's not terrible, but at the same time it's not great either. With a budget of $130 million, I think they could have done a little better than they did.
The ending of this film is so interesting. I want to spoil it but I won't. It's really clawing at the back of my mind to talk about it though. I might end up making another blog post giving a spoiler talk about the ending to this film.
If you like watching superhero movies, you might like this film. If you like movies that are a little darker, then you might like this film. If you like character driven movies, then you might like this film. I sure did and you might too.


final score: 4/5

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...
