The Predator Movie Review


So I just saw, The Predator, and it was grossly underwhelming... it really could have been something more if it just tried a little.

I went and saw this movie with a friend of mine, and I thought that it would be a cool fun action movie. You know those ones that you turn your brain off and enjoy for a little while? Yeah, one of those kind of movies, except it wasn't as good as that.
My brain just kept saying, "that wouldn't happen," or, "they are not even trying," so even though I wanted to like this movie, it just didn't hold up for me.
I'm not going to go into plot, and the characters are barely fleshed out. Granted the cannon fodder of the film died latter than I thought they would, so props to them for surviving.
I won't mention who, but I was surprised to find out some of the actors in this movie. Granted I didn't really watch the trailers for, The Predator, but just to be safe, I won't mention the actors involved in this project.
There have been a lot, and I mean a lot worse films out this year, but I probably won't really even remember this film in a week or two. If it's on for free on tv, and there is absolutely nothing else on tv, then this movie would make great background noise while you do something more entertaining than watch, The Predator.


final score: 2.9/5

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...
