Hot Fuzz Movie Review

Hot Fuzz is a 2007 action cop comedy film, and I thought that it would be good, but not as good as it turned out to be.

Nicholas Angle (Simon Pegg) is a London cop that gets promoted to sergeant, and is assigned to a small quiet village because he is showing up every other cop in London. He doesn't want to take the assignment, but he must. Initially things are a bit weird, and sergeant Angle is a bit bored at his new post, until some, "accidents" start happening, and this quiet little village might not be all that it is cracked up to be.
I want to say going into this film that I thought that it would be just an all right movie to pass the time, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this is actually an amazing film! Most of the jokes land, and are funny, the action is excellent, and the acting is perfectly fitting for this film! I can't picture anyone else playing the roles that were in this film. I really have to applaud everyone involved in this picture!
Simon Pegg is a fantastic actor, and he kills it as sergeant Angle! I've seen him in a few other movies, but know I want to watch more of his comedies!
If you like to have a really fun time watching movies, then watch Hot Fuzz! If you like amazing action scenes that get your blood pumping from the thrill of it, then watch Hot Fuzz! If you like British comedies or just plain old comedy, then watch Hot Fuzz! I think that you get the point that you should go and watch, Hot Fuzz!

final score: 4.5/5

Uncharted Movie Review

Uncharted Movie Review Not As Good As The Games I went and saw the movie Uncharted a while ago, and it was as I expected it to be. If you are a fan of the games, well... prepare for disappointment. Uncharted follows Nathan Drake (Tom Holland), a low level thief as he is recruited by Victor Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg) to go on a treasure hunt. As someone who has played some of the games, but not all, I have to say that the Uncharted film is what I thought it would be. A mishmash of all four games but not committing to any of them. The acting is a bit stale, and the plot is predictable. The camera work was fine, but the music was underused. Tom Holland should not have been Nathan Drake. He lacks the charisma, the attitude, and the charm. He may have passed for a teenage Nathan Drake, but he should have only been in a few scenes. I'm not the biggest fan of Tom Holland either long time readers may know. Now, onto Mark Wahlberg as Victor Sullivan. Mark Wahlberg is way too young to be playi

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 performance fell flat. I perhaps would

The Batman Movie Review

The Batman Movie Review A Solid Noir Film I went and saw The Batman the other day with one of my buddies and I must say, we really enjoyed it. Granted I don't think this movie is for everyone. The Batman follows Batman (Robert Pattinson) during his second year of crime fighting. When the mayor of Gotham is killed by The Riddler (Paul Dano), it is up to Batman with the help of James Gordon (Jeffery Wright), and Selina Kyle (Zoë Kravitz) to stop him. From a visual point of view, The Batman is gorgeous. Every frame is a painting. The acting is solid, the plot is solid. The musical score is outstanding. I personally loved the film, but there are some things in it that could off-set some Batman fans. I typically get into the acting first, but like you've probably already heard many reviewers say before, the city is a character in this film. Gotham feels real, grounded, and certainly not a place you'd want to visit. Corruption and crime run rampant at every level of society. The
