saw Matrix Resurrections at CINESTAR IMAX yesterday

269745222_10165724235210065_4488350982795201664_n.jpg

so just before the movie was coming out seeing all these mediocore reviews all around made me not have my hopes much high for this from the get go after all sequels rarely are better than the first ones. (no way home excluded ofcourse :p) anyways the movie is a sort of a beginning of a new trilogy if i may add or a new start to what we may have seen in the previous movies. i don't know if ppl recapped the older movies before going in to watch this or not but to me the movie was fine, neither great but definitely not as bad as the reviews are making it to be. as morpheus in the matrix says " free your mind and open to new possibilities" this is exactly what you had to do to get this movie right.

7/10

saw "the KINGSMAN" at cinestar atc cinema yesterday

270641440_10165748534355065_3249289595280453828_n.jpg

so i was hearing all kinds of negative reviews for this and it was making me feel uneasy like why, so i went in to see this myself and boy am i glad i did, the negative reviews and such are a bunch of BS tbh, the movie delivered what it was supposed to do and it did just that, it had action a good story and twists as well. acting was very well done especially rasputin (rhys ifans) he was great. some of the stuff was shown some actors good one's but i think they are making a sequel to this as teased in the mid-credits. i urge the people to go or watch it at home at least before falling for these fake a** reviews online for the movie.

the movies future could be in danger but im eager to watch a sequel especially the person teased in it haha

Rating 7/10

saw "the 355" yesterday at cinestar cinema

271156946_10165782142615065_4280672479366279931_n.jpg

so the female spies are there each working for their intelligence agencies etc and well they collide and than form a partnership of sorts. the movies action was fine, had a bit of drama and comedy in there too, male protagonists were kind of held back to make them females shine. if they are to make a proper franchise for this they better do more action and a better story line next. this was fine had some twists in there but could had been better

Rating 6.5/10

the movie's getting good praises and for the right reasons too, it goes back to the root of the franchise and revives that who is the killer ? who who who feeling :D loved that, it has its twists and turns and the legacy characters ohh man was awesome too see on the big screen. liked this one than previous instalments, it's as good as the original if not better in few ways !
