The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond: pick me up and sling me over your shoulder like those bags of grain pls (edit to title after watching through: Men are stupid)

I’ve never done a complete 180° flip on characters like this in a movie before. Let’s go through it, shall we?

This movie did NOT offer subtitles, and I’d be lying if I said it was easy to understand the southern accents without them. And that’s with my keen ability to understand a Pittsburgh accent, which is arguably worse at times.

Absolutely wild, but when do I not exaggerate and say that? This is somewhat of a play-by-play of what was going through my mind as I watched.

First off, CE was to die for in the movie. I don’t know exactly what it was about it (I know exactly what it was) but I fell in love. Country accent Chris Evans is something else, but Boston accent is much better. But this is a good look, I like it.

Such a simple man with a good heart, and smart enough to get a scholarship to ole miss!? He seemed decent, and the acting was actually pretty good.

The little clueless look of mild discomfort on his face the whole time was so adorable. Any time he was at a party or visiting his mother. I also took note of the way this disappeared as soon as he was home with his dad. As soon as he was in his domain and in control. This is me commending his ability to portray that dichotomy of environments.

But fr, like, how does everyone know who he is and not say anything about him being poor?

I love the way he turned down Caroline at the dance tho. He very obviously does not want to be there, but isn’t that the point? But that statement about him being hired by Fisher struck an alarm for me. Is she almost fetishizing the poor boy?

Fishy is outta left field. It’s unfortunate she’s been forced into this kind of a life, but she’s… a lot.

Also, it’s movies like this that remind me how much the south lags in terms of modernity and stays rooted in tradition sometimes. Like, if you think about it, this takes place at a very similar time as to when Steeb was growing up in Brooklyn in cap, but like, it’s totally worlds away.

Omg, not him hinting at being an escort to make ends meet and get his mom better. He’s ready to sell his soul and body to this girl for his ma and a condition that can’t really heal.

Vinnie definitely saw the diamond in the driveway. I saw her look down when she first saw Jimmy.

Omg not Jimmy having a condom on him during that strip search. Iolllllll

Also also, not the assisted suicide. This lady on her death bed is really spitting facts. It’s a rude awakening for dear Fishy. She knows how much she loves Jimmy and knows that really should be her number one concern.

Poor thing is just peculiar and no one gets her. But to be fair, she does not make it easy.

Fishy, have fun in Europe. You deserve it. You need to get outta this town. It’s not for you. Rip. She doesn’t leave.

I JUST SQUEALED. The way he backed her up against that wall when she’s talking about the way he dresses. I’m gonna throw up. Do that to me. Please. Oop. She struck a nerve talking about his father.

The boys in the yard absolutely suck. All boys in this movie suck.

Why does Jimmy like Vinnie so much? Everyone else very evidently does not.

Dude, tbh the postman game makes me uncomfortable. No need for all this young adult fornication is too much.

I get it’s Halloween, but these costumes and masks are fucking creepy as hell. I didn’t sign up for Fishy’s opium fever dream. She is good at playing the piano tho. Poor thing is in pain.

I FUCKING KNEW IT. Vinnie sucks. And Jimmy just slept with her!!! I’m CRYING. THIS IS SO FUCKED UP. I CANT BELIEVE YOU JUST DID THAT, JIMMY. I BLAME BOTH OF YOU, LITTLE BITCHES. (This was very evidently the moment of the switch-up. Little horny bastardized ruining everything. Keep it in your pants until you have the full story.) (I’m not hating on him for sleeping with Vinnie, I’m hating on him for not seeing Vinnie’s poor character sooner.)

Fisher, you’re a queen, calling Jimmy a scared little boy in the dark. Jimmy, you ARE such a stupid little boy. No way you like these people even though you say you do. Everyone here sucks. This all is making me soupy saddy in the bad way.

Not her saying Jimmy is like god to her. Fishy!!!! You know nothing of what he’s done.

He convinced Vinnie to give back the Diamond. I TOLD YOU knew that she stole it. I really don’t know what he saw in her. Sure, no shame in being poor, but she still kinda sucks

Now that Jimmy is driving Fishy home, he’s still being a little bitch. Check yourself, boy, I swear.

Ohhhhhh. He didn’t want to be with Fisher bc he thinks she can do better than him? I mean, agreed, but that’s still no excuse for your immorality.

They both know she doesn’t belong, but she’s got a lot to stay for. Use your Paris education to fix the world, girl!!!

Despite Jimmy’s amusement of Fisher at the first party and his confession at the end, she still does not get enough credit besides the one lady on her deathbed

Poor Fisher knows no one will ever love her or see her for who she truly is. This is so sad. So I guess he finally kissed her at the levee? What an unsatisfying ending. Fishy deserves the world and Jimmy is such a BOY😭🙄.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)

Each viewing of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World reveals new depths to its narrative and humour, making its failure at the box office an even bigger shame. Well, better late than never. Go in for the memorable characters, arresting visual style, humour, and creative story. Come back to catch all the gags you missed. See it a third time to see what this movie is REALLY about.

22-year-old Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) is a slacker musician dating 17-year-old high schooler Knives Chau (Ellen Wong). He's with her because he knows it’ll go nowhere. It's only a matter of time before he dumps her, which will be easy. Enter Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead). Promptly ditching Knives for the Amazon delivery girl of his dreams, Scott learns he must defeat her seven evil exes before they can date.

If the plot sounds crazy, it is. Director Edgar Wright (who co-wrote the screenplay with Michael Bacall, based off the comic series by Bryan Lee O’Malley) injects special effects in nearly every scene. References and Easter eggs to video games are everywhere in the form of health meters, bonus points, sound cues, non-sequiturs, and more. You can have a great time with a notepad playing “spot the reference” but it’ll be tough. There are so many and the deluge of gags is one hell of a distraction. It’s an outlandish tale with many characters and to ensure you never forget who’s who, we have a hugely talented cast bringing these quirky people to life. Kieran Culkin as Scott’s gay and very seductive roommate, Chris Evans, Brandon Routh, Jason Schwartzman and more as Ramona’s evil exes, Anna Kendrick as Scott’s disapproving younger sister, Aubrey Plaza, Brie Larson, Alison Pill, Johnny Simmons and Mark Webber as Scott’s friends/bandmates... Every time one of them appears on-screen again, you perk up. What hilarious new line are they going to deliver? It never fails. You always laugh out loud.

This is sort of a “battle of the bands” movie, meaning you get all sorts of musical talents adding extra oomph to the dazzling visuals. The score & soundtrack is another character, another reason to re-watch the film so you can properly see (well, hear) how every note perfectly compliments the characters’ actions and the point we’re at in the story.

While you’re dazzled by the audio and visual, you might overlook one of the most important aspects of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: its theme. Those references to bands and video games? They’re just gravy. The fact is, this movie has a great message. It’s not actually about battling a bunch of crazy enemies in order to get a prize lady. All that’s a metaphor. What this movie is actually about is a slacker, a person you’re not really supposed to like. Scott is lazy and he’s stringing Knives along. Even when it’s obvious he wants to move on to the new hot thing, he takes way too long to admit it. When he does get with “the girl of his dreams”, he takes forever to get over the fact that she has a past, that Ramona broke some hearts and was selfish in her past relationships despite Scott having done the same thing to Knives. The battles he fights are actually against himself. To win Ramona, what he must actually do is learn humility and self-respect. This is what pushes Scott Pilgrim vs. the World from being “merely” good to being great. If you really look at it, you’ll learn something.

I might change my mind about this the next time I view it but right now, the only flaw I’ll bring up is the running time. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World a fast-paced, highly economical movie, which makes seven evil exes A LOT of enemies. The combat actually winds up slowing the film down and I can think of a couple of bad guys who could’ve been removed without losing much. Otherwise, it’s an instant favorite. You’ll want to come back to it over and over thanks to its unmistakable style, the ample creative choices made throughout, the humor and the characters. (On Blu-ray, July 24, 2020)

Just saw "Barbie"!! 😁

Overall: Great message... Great music 🎶.... Funny scenes..... Loved the nostalgia..... But not really as good as I thought it would be. 🥴

I think many ppl will LOVE it though. I just don't think the movie was as good as it's hype. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Or, maybe my expectations were a bit too high? 🤔

Bottom Line: It just wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be tbh.

The Good: Ryan Gosling absolutely steals the show in this. I laughed the hardest at his scenes tbh, and I was like staring at his incredible abs the whole entire time rofl 🤣 😂 Idk how he got his abs so amazing, but I was just in awe rofl 🤣

America Ferrera delivered the best line/scene in the entire film (imo), and has a scene that was quite possibly the best in the entire movie.

I saw the trailer for "Challengers" on the BIG screen right before this movie came on, and let me just say, the trailer is WAY more awesome on the BIG SCREEN! Zendaya is gonna KILL it in this role hunny!! 👏🏾 I cam already tell it. It looks REALLY GOOD on the big screen, and the whole love triangle thing with Z, Mike and Josh's characters looks so amazing. 😊😁 I really think she's going to WOW ppl in this role.

Just sad that I won't be able to see it sooner rather than later, but I'm def willing to wait. 🥰

I would say "Barbie" is worth the watch if you're really into Barbie or the actors in the film, but this film is def one that I could have caught on streaming and not felt like I missed out on anything. 🤷🏾‍♀️

With that said, it's CRUSHING the box office.... which is nice! 😁👍🏾

#Barbie #my movie review #BTW was SHOCKED to see Chris Evans' brother in this lol 😆 Had no idea he was in it until I saw the opening credits rofl #the NY times #box office #challengers

Finally watched LIGHTYEAR with my brother and my god, that movie was so damn good. I have no idea why people were shitting on this movie (homophobes and anti-rebooters i have my eye on you), like it was really good. My brother and I had to pause the movie a few times just so we could laugh and cry and scream over the twists. Zurg scared the absolute shit out of us, like he was so big and menacing, like he reminded us of Darth Vader but somehow more frightening. Also we both got so attached to Alisha and Sox, we cried when Buzz got to Alisha’s empty office and saw her last message for him. Sox immediately made us go awwww when we saw him because we also had our cat watching the movie with us, so he got to see a friendly face on screen. I loved the scene when Buzz got the wings on his suit out to fight Zurg and save the rest of the team from falling, a true masterpiece in my opinion. All in all this movie is a 12/10 on the moist-meter (my brother’s words, not mine) and 5 stars.

Gifted- Movie Review

I cried when… Let’s not. You should experience that, it’s worth it.

Gifted, released in 2017, is a movie that will tug at your heartstrings and leave you contemplating the true meaning of exceptional talent. This heartwarming film explores the story of a young prodigy and the challenges she faces as her unique abilities come to light.

The movie centers around Mary, a brilliant young girl played by McKenna Grace, who possesses an extraordinary gift for mathematics. She is being raised by her uncle Frank, portrayed by Chris Evans, who is determined to give her a normal childhood despite the pressures to nurture her exceptional talents. The story takes a compelling turn when Mary's mathematical abilities attract the attention of her grandmother, who wants to separate her from Frank and exploit her potential.

What sets Gifted apart is its ability to strike a balance between heartwarming moments and thought-provoking themes. The performances, particularly by McKenna Grace and Chris Evans, are incredibly genuine, capturing the complex dynamics of their relationship and the challenges they face as they navigate societal expectations and personal growth.

The film delves into themes of family, identity, and the pursuit of happiness. It raises questions about the value of exceptional talent and the importance of preserving a sense of normalcy and childhood innocence. The narrative unfolds with a tender touch, inviting viewers to reflect on the delicate balance between nurturing extraordinary potential and allowing children to simply be children.

Gifted succeeds in portraying the emotional complexities of its characters with depth and authenticity. It avoids melodrama and instead focuses on the subtle moments of connection and vulnerability that make the story resonate. The cinematography beautifully captures the picturesque coastal setting, enhancing the overall visual experience.

In conclusion, Gifted is a gem of a film that deserves recognition. Its heartwarming story, superb performances, and thought-provoking themes make it a unique and engaging cinematic experience. Prepare to be touched by the profound journey of a gifted young girl and her abilities' profound impact on those around her.

Gifted reminds us that true worth lies not only in exceptional talent but also in the love, support, and understanding that shape our lives.

Okay I’ve watched Ghosted and here are my thoughts!

(that nobody asked for 😅).

Disclaimer, this movie gets a pass because it reunited Chris and Sebastian (and Mackie) and because Chris is SO DARN PRETTY with that beard and fluffy hair. 🥵

Firstly I’ll start with what I wasn’t so keen on and get that out of the way:

( don’t go into this movie expecting high art, don’t think too deeply about anything on screen and you won’t be disappointed)

- Almost all the problems I had with the movie I attribute to the bad script and bad direction (Sorry Dexter and co 😬).

- Unfortunately the character Chris is playing is let down by the writing, at times he’s just an unlikeable character.

- I wish they could have found a better plot device to get him to London and involved with Sadie’s mission without resorting to him stalking her . I think it would have been better if Sadie and Cole had been kidnapped near the end of their first date and Cole was just dragged along for the ride (and just ditched the whole ‘Ghosted’ concept- the title didn’t really pay off anyway)

- They made Cole a walking red flag 🚩 basically

- And I’m sorry to all the fans of Chris and Ana together, but I just don’t see the chemistry that all the other characters are talking about. Note: if you keep telling the audience that they have chemistry and sexual tension it doesn’t make it more believable 🫣

- I know it’s a rom com, but at times it’s just really saccharine and cheesy, especially at the beginning.

- The wigs are terrible and very distracting at times 😅

- Overall I think the movie just takes itself too seriously, it would have been much funnier if they had gone down the route of being a spoof and satire.

Okay now onto the things I loved about this movie :

- Chris is unbelievably hot, he looks really good here and I can’t wait for all the talented people on tumblr to gif it to death

- I think Ana and Chris did the best with what they had to work with. I think they could have given much better performances if they had better material.

- I think Chris showed good comedic ability at different points throughout the movie (and with stronger direction would have been really good and consistently funny) I think he was plenty believable as a fish out of water, naive and slightly goofy, small town boy !

- Seeing Chris as a farmer really did things to me 😩 why does he look so hot in waders standing in water?? In a beekeepers outfit ??? Seriously this man can make anything look hot 🥵

- I thought the actress who played his sister was really good 😊

And the main event !

Drum roll 🥁 we got a SEBASTIAN CAMEO !!!

The movie is at its best when they aren’t taking themselves too seriously - that’s why the part with John, Seb and Anthony is personally my favourite part.

Seeing Sebastian back on screen with Chris, looking like a stucky AU was like fanfiction come to life (that’s why this movie gets a pass regardless of messy plot holes 😂) . I don’t know what else to say that hasn’t already been said, but it just makes me so happy 😁

Seb proved again that he’s good at the comedy schtick! (I really hope his action-comedy movie happens now🤞🏼) and he also looked sexy as hell with the tousled hair and bangs. They both are truly too beautiful for their own good, on screen together they are powerful and overwhelming (that’s why he had to die so quickly 😉) PLEASE release behind the scenes of this!!! Dexter, I know I called your directing crappy, but pretty please 🥺

Also wtf was the Ryan Reynolds cameo?? It wasn’t even funny and completely unnecessary

Pain Hustlers (2023)

🎬After losing her job, a woman who's struggling to raise her daughter takes a job out of desperation. She begins work at a failing pharmaceutical startup, but what she doesn't anticipate is the dangerous racketeering scheme she's suddenly entered.

📝A mediocre film about drug dealers really. Unless you really know about the story and are invested in it, this movie is all over the place. There are flashbacks, try hard “explanation videos” and it all felt rather pretentious, incoherent and for someone who had no idea about this drug company, it was really hard to get involved in the story and understand it. Luckily this was a straight to streaming film and I did not waste my time or money going to the cinema to watch it. Watch it if you really must but don’t feel bad if you don’t.

I watched The Gray Man twice already!! It was so good. I give it a solid 9/10. The relationship between Six and Claire was so cute. And the movie had great action scenes and many funny one liners. The acting was incredible. Yall should definitely go watch it

Ryan carried!

Ana left no crumbs!

Julia ate!

Chris bodied as usual!

And Regé-Jean slayed!

This was the first movie where I wanted Chris' character to lose 😭

Also there has to be a second movie. Like nothing was solved except for him getting Claire. The actual bad guy wasn't defeated. So if there's a sequel I'm ready for it

📽️ The Gray Man (2022)

I love Ryan Gosling, but Chris Evans is not my favorite. Fortunately, Ryan Gosling is the main focus of this movie. However, I still was not a huge fan of this. I felt like it was a good storyline, but one that has been done before. It just wasn’t super original, or believable for that matter. As one reviewer on IMDb put it, “it’s just ‘meh’ trying to hide in action scenes.”

Sex/nudity: 1/10 (a couple sexual remarks)

Language: 5/10 (one f-word, quite a bit of everything else)

Violence: 8/10 (just a lot)

Overall rating: 5/10

I think the success of this movie encouraged its structure to be copied into the other MCU movies/shows. Strong setups, strong premises, weak middles, with a payoff that only serves as an ad for the next possible movie/show.

Captain America: The First Avenger is a 2011 American superhero film directed by Joe Johnston, written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, and stars Chris Evans alongside Tommy Lee Jones, Hugo Weaving, Hayley Atwell, Sebastian Stan, Dominic Cooper, Toby Jones, Neal McDonough, Derek Luke, and Stanley Tucci.

A “QUICK!” Review of “Ghosted (2023)”

I love Chris Evans.

I also love Ana De Armas.

However, they have no chemistry together.

Doesn't help when all the couple do is argue throughout the film. Introduced arguing, and even the whole second act is them arguing. The action scenes are mediocre and plot itself is boring.

Just an uninteresting and uninspired movie. Hard to believe this director made Rocketman because this is a rocket that doesn't even launch.

TMNT (2007)

While I didn't enjoy this film, that doesn't mean you won't. No matter what I say, the people involved in this project did it: they actually made a movie. That's something to be applauded. With that established...

In some ways, TMNT is a better film than the previous live-action installments in the series. Unfortunately, it still suffers from major shortcomings. This makes it less fun than even the worst of the ‘90s adventures because there’s nothing nostalgic about it and no elements that are so bad they can be kind of fun despite themselves. This movie is doomed to obscurity - theatrical release or no theatrical release.

3,000 years ago, a warlord named Yaotl opened a portal whose energies granted him immortality but turned his four trusted generals to stone. The portal also unleashed 13 monsters into our world - previews of the army the portal would unleash the next time someone opened it. In present day, Leonardo (voiced by James Arnold Taylor), Raphael (voiced by Nolan North), Michelangelo (voiced by Mikey Kelley) and Donatello (voiced by Mitchell Whitfield) have grown apart. Leonardo has been sent away to South America to train and his brothers have either taken on mundane jobs or become masked vigilantes. When Yaotl resurrects his generals and begins gathering the monsters with the help of the Foot Clan, it can only mean trouble for New York and its shell-wearing protectors.

While there’s a certain charm to the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies and their practical special effects, making the next chapter in the series an animated film was a good idea. It gives the characters freedoms they never had before and they're the most expressive they've ever been. Too bad they have nothing interesting to say and the plot is a complete mess. There’s just way too much going on here. Why 13 monsters to collect to open up the portal? Eight of them are captured during a montage and the turtles only interact with three of them, making that number way excessive. In fact, why are there monsters in the movie at all? Isn’t a villain that's trying to open up this portal to a dimension of demons with his four granite warriors - none of which get more than a handful of lines - enough?

Let's examine this story deeper. The portal only opens up once every 3,000 when the stars align, and only if the creatures are arranged in a circle. Yaotl sure was dragging his feet gathering them then, wasn’t he? They’ve been around for longer than Christianity and he’s gotten exactly NOTHING done before the plot kicks in. Thankfully, the monsters are - for reasons that are never made clear - hanging out in New York city, waiting to be scooped up like Pokémon. This entire plot is so muddy and so full of holes you just don’t care about any of it.

Not helping are the titular heroes. Splinter (voiced by Mako) has sent Leonardo away to train to be a better leader. Did he really need to go to a different continent to do this? Speaking of bad ideas, the “Nightwatcher” subplot makes NO SENSE. Raphael has been wearing a disguise and sneaking out at night to fight crime. Why? The turtles live in secrecy in the city's sewer tunnels. He has no civilian identity to protect. The disguise fools no one anyway - well, except his brothers, who take forever to put two and two together. As if the huge humanoid with three fingers and a big shell on his back jumping around doing martial arts wouldn’t be immediately recognized by them. And if he is going around fighting crime as a vigilante… so what? The turtles have always been vigilantes! So is their friend Casey Jones (voiced by Chris Evans)!

Once again, the plot centers solely on Leonardo and Raphael, with the other two turtles given nothing to do. You’d think with the years of comics and television series, someone would’ve figured out a way to give everyone involved some task crucial to defeating the villains. Donnie could hack into a security system, April (voiced by Sarah Michelle Gellar) could gather intelligence or put on a disguise, Mickey and Casey could distract the guards, that kind of thing. No. We get hammered by themes of family and brotherhood over and over but all the siblings do is argue until the final act when they finally put their differences aside. None of it is any fun, and certainly not with the quality of the jokes we're subjected to. The entire picture only contains one funny moment, which makes the brisk 87 minutes feel like an entire season of a TV show you’ve been forced to sit through.

Despite all my criticisms, I must admit that an 11-year-old who loves the ninja turtles would probably love this movie because the ridiculous story seriously (too seriously, I’d say) and feigns a grim and gritty theme throughout. Nothing about the story or visuals will date TMNT like its predecessors but it’s hard to imagine anyone fondly looking back at this 2007 film. (March 26, 2021)

Flying across the globe to follow someone after one date is absolutely unhinged behavior. Yes, even if that woman is Ana de Armas. But hey, rom com’s be like that sometimes. Check out episode 244 to see what we thought of Ghosted!
