Godzilla Part 3: The Planet Eater.....................(6/10) watched in HD, I really feel these Netflix Godzilla animated flicks have a lot of potential but they just ruined it by making them so boring. The last part of this trilogy was equally boring, King Ghidorah makes an appearance which was laughable! Glad its over now!

Polar........................(8/10) watched in HD, a nice John Wick/Atomic Blonde type of movie and since I love such movie my rating will be biased. Vanessa Hudgens was lovely in it and so was Mads Mikkelsen. Brutality was definitely turned up a notch, overall a good movie, worth a watch!!

black mirror bandersnatch: 7/10
i dunno the big fuss about this movie, it was OK. alright the concept is new and all but the entire movie was a blackmirror episode stretched. got all endings..

starring john travolta and kathern winnick, based on true events, this movie was quite good.

Saw "Alita Battle Angel" at packages mall early screening tonight, was invited there..

Spoiler: show



tbh after all those delays and reshoots i was very skeptic about thsi movie bombing hard but to my surprise early reviews suggested it's good but i was still not sure since some reviews of movies before had same kinda stuff but later criticised badly but boy was i wrong and im glad. this movie was really good although not same as source material but still good stuff. the action, the stroy it had a bit fast forward at times but still keeping it all together. the CGI was wonderful here. the focus on the faces of the people in the movie showing emotions of alita etc was nicely done.

really enjoyed the movie throughout and the end left me wanting for more indeed.

Rating: 8/10

Alita Battle Angel: Watched it yesterday at Cinepax. Last movie I watched in cinema was Aquaman and now Alita, both movies had some INCREDIBLE visual effects or CGI whatever they call it. It reminded me of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance same kind of robots and cyborgs and sword fights. It has everything emotions, action, a kind of race to but not much humor though. Story was also fine. I was impressed by the face of Alita and that’s the plus point of CGI that you can built characters like this. So, overall it’s a paisa wasool movie. Beauty with RAGE 8/10.

Only watched it because of Jake Gyllenhaal (had to google the spelling :tears:). It's a weird satirical black comedy take on horror. It reminded me of films like the Evil Dead series but much less gore. For the most part the film moves at a good pace with some jokes not landing as well as they would hope to be. You feel a sense of emptiness by the film ends. Even though the ending leaves something more to be desired, I liked the Tarantino-esque final segment. It landed short of my expectations overall which were unfairly high after watching Night crawler.

Will give it a solid 7/10.

Recently watched Creed 2 and I find it absolutely absurd that this matchup would ever happen IRL. Apparently, filmmakers have never heard of weight classes. The physical diff b/w Michael B jordan and that russian mofo was HUUGGGE. There was a diff of like 3 weight classes b/w them irl. Bongi maarni hi ha toh thori sensible bongi hi maar lo.. :/
Movie was good, but very predictable. This format is getting old now.

saw "happy death day 2 u" tonight at packages mall cinepax

Spoiler: show



So the movie takes off right where the first one ended, events are quite literally after the first ends.

so this one has old movie elements in and with a twist that new dimensions appear. so they explained exactly in this one how the timeloop occurred and so on which made sense since first movies timeloop thingie without explanation was dumb. though first one was a better movie in terms of watch and laughter TBH. this one was feeling a bit bland with some old stuff from first repeating itself but i guess thats the point of the movie haha :p overall good watch i'd say

the end scene during credits shouts third part wooo hooo

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
