Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life Review
Nowadays we live in a world of YA adaptations where everything is over familiarized. We pay more attention to the demographic for teens than we do for tweens especially in the department in live action films. So with Middle School it is nice to have a distinctly crafted film that is sort of a breath of fresh air especially in we’re swallowed in films about dystopian futures and rebellion. It may have moments where it feels like Wimpy Kid, but it takes much more risks and grab more into character depth than that series ever will.
The Birth of A Nation Review
What I love about slavery films nowadays, [which is a puzzling sentence to start a review with] is that the directors that make you feel bad about slavery are mostly directors of African descent. With a film that sparked so much controversy since its debut at Sundance, everyone should know about the empowerment of Birth of a Nation.
Deepwater Horizon Review
What makes Peter Berg a great director is how well he can mix and match a genre. With this film you don’t really see much actors or acting performance wise but more as real people
Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children Review
Burton’s newest film has us going back to his roots of filmmaking. Which isn’t much of a great thing sometimes.
When The Bough Breaks Review
Rock a bye bullshit on the tree top and when the wind blows the production will flop, and When The Bough Breaks, the production will fall, and down will come bullshit, bullshit and all.
The Magnificent Seven Review
As much Fuqua praises his love for western you see him whole heartily takes his love and integrates it into the production and cinematography that takes you back to the westerns of the 70s but with Fuqua’s gritty look where the contrast filter is on 100%. There is an aesthetic atmosphere of classic Western cinema that you have to to appreciate.
Storks Review
Through dialogue and visual gags throughout, it is relentless. It just gets to you no matter how much of a hard boiled egg you try to be.
Queen of Katwe Review
What makes this film works comparison to other Disney films is that we are centered on a girl who doesn’t know where she belongs and her unexpected gift helps her find her way.
Snowden Review
Oliver Stone’s Snowden take its research to make the subject’s personal story correct, but oversimplifies it with a thin script and cheap thrills. It may contain a great cast and a wonderful performance by Snowden, but its padded out length and lack of entertainment doesn’t do it any justice.
