saw THE BATMAN yesterday at cinestar IMAX

ohh man its Nolan style cinematography here, all grounded and no cgi BS. the themes and dialogues just goosebumps plus the intro sequences to batman were amazing. a 3 hour long movie looks like wb execs gave reeves full creativity to work around and it shows. getting rave reviews no doubt. finally we get a batman movie detective style. mind you if your'e expecting alot of action and stuff keep calm and carry on elsewhere coz this batman movie is a mix of different comics and such combined into a different story. a good detective one which batman always started with.

i was really amazed by colin farrel as penguins character here totally changed i could see that from the trailers and just heard that penguins own show is coming as well would def want to see that.

paul dano this mofo is a crazed method actor, his persona with the mask was awesome, without he was a bit too baby face for my liking but his acting took it away as always.

pattinson, man i had my doubts but he did a good job, well done. he fit the boots for year 2 batman just right.

zoe as catwoman, she did good too, for her role and her acting it was fine.

jim gordon, another good one here

alfred well i was expecting more from him in a 3 hour long movie but tbh he got the short snub here imo. would had liked to see more of him

overall the movie exceeded expectations, was really good

no after credits scene here but

Spoiler: show
the after credits scene they put in right at the end of the movie it seems when riddler is in arkham WHO IS THAT GUY , def joker by the laugh of this universe ohh man,.. seemed two face by this face type but his laugh was joker all right"


RATING 9/10

saw AMBULANCE at cinestar ali trade center yesterday

1647958579180.jpg

now its directed by michael bay so expect big booms and explosions and this is exactly what this movie had, jaky gylenhaal had a good character to play with, he was both funny and serious in this one. yahya abdul mateen was the quite honest character here with a moral compass, eiza gonzalez was the candy yeah he mbay likes to do that.

anyways the movie turned out to be a better than i had expected, had a good story and lept me entertained throughout the full car chase movie which it was. yes the whole movies a big chase sequence ...

Rating 7/10

saw "the lost city" at cinestar ATC on friday night


2b4795fc7897d148dd01fe51a9687ba5.jpg

ok so the movie tried to be funny without being too overly funny but i think that was a major flaw here, the jokes were being delivered etc but the excitment from the actors just wasn't there.. had a good cast with surprise cameos and such and stuff but as i said something was missing and that pitched the movie down a bit. overall stay at home sunday movie

Rating 6.5/10

I recently saw A Time to Kill on Prime.

A Time to Kill (1996) - IMDb

1668618629092.png

The film received mostly positive reviews when released in 1996. It was also a commercial success as people were attracted to the A-list cast that included Matthew McConaughey , Sandra Bullock, Samuel Jackson, Kevin Spacey, and Oliver Platt.

I liked the story of the film that portrayed the era when racism was ripe led by the Klu Klux clan in southern US. I would rate the film as 6/10.

The Super Mario Bros Movie 2023

Rating: 10/10

Review


Just saw this animated movie and I have to say I was impressed with it.
Nintendo and Illumination did a great job in bringing the Italian plumber to life in the animated movie, which is currently the third highest grossing animated movie of all time behind Frozen 2 and Frozen.

Growing up, I played Mario on my Nintendo Famicom (NES) and also played the iconic Mario 64 with a PC emulator. I also have played (but not finished) the Super Mario Sunshine (Gamecube emulator) and Super Mario 3D World (Wii U emulator). The last one was especially a treat to play. So, the animated movie brought back nostalgic memories of my childhood.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
