Hollywood Movie Review Series:

*Movies are in no particular order. Please use Crtl F on your keyboard to find a particular movie. Movies that got a wide release in the year after their first screening are listed in the next year. For example, 300 (2006) is listed in 2007 because it only got a wide release in 2007.

*Don't worry about spoilers. You can read the review of any movie without being afraid of spoilers and enjoy the movie if you watch it. I intentionally made sure not to ruin a movie by revealing a hidden plot or hidden climax scene. I simply pass or fail each scene and comment on them.

Fail of dream scene.

Would have been better to see the puma god.

Wakanda couldn't fix Africa? Oh dear. I'm sure if the puma god came to the dream of most African leaders/warlords it would be a done deal.

Another reboot. Oh dear god.

Forsaking your children for your career. Those liberal parents need to burn in hell. Not really, but you understand.

The flashback scenes are better than the present.

Oh dear, one of those Dan Brown kind of movies and solve the puzzle. F*ck sakes.

Only the Indiana Jones movies can make these plots works.

Fail of narrated intro. Aliens look like something from the 1980s movies.

Jaegers are just Gundam rip offs.

And a single kid is piloting the Gundam rip-off? Oh dear god.

The giant blue one reminds me of a Sentinel from X-Men.

This movie feels like one of those spy kids movies with the cheesy music content.

Does the child have to look so wide eyed when she lays her eyes on the "magnificent" Gundam rip-offs? Geez.

Pilots and the beef with mechanics. Yah yah.

Fail of almost every scene. Complete fail of writing.

I still can't believe this movie got a sequel. Hollywood's love affair with China.

Drone tech. It works pretty good in 2018. I'm sure in the future the targeting will be so good it can skin a target from the air.

Fail of all Gundam ripoff scenes’ throughout.

Genetic engineering. Oh dear.

The blue hungry kaiju things are just big hungry babies. Give them a hearty Canadian breakfast and they'll be on their way.

Where's Godzilla when you need him? Oh wait, I'm sure Legendary Entertainment will do that one next. Godzilla vs. the Kaiju vs. the aliens from Independence Day.

Decent climax scene, but not enough to pass.

Fail of ending.

One of the worst movies of all time. This movie shouldn’t have made $1.00. The fact that it made almost $300 million proves that God does NOT exist.

Comments:

Good intro.

Ah yes…submissiveness as empowerment. Only 21st crazy feminists could rationalize this one.

Fail of chase scene.

Fail of break in scene. Powerfully stupid.

Fail of almost all scenes throughout. Complete fail of writing and directing.

Story: Ambition, Ethics

Characters: Fail

Acting: Pass

Comments:

Good intro.

Ah…the days when it was so easy to steal papers from work.

Fail of leaking process. But I guess you can't sex it up.

For the record, none of those documents should have been marked top secret in the first place. It’s an archive of history. But that gives rise to the conspiracy theory of a hidden history. If this was classified, much bigger things will never see the light of day.

Fail of flashback scenes throughout.

Families maintaining control over a public company. Capitalism, namely rich White capitalism, at its best.

Ah…the ‘60s and running messages over to another person. Those were the days (not that I would know).

Fail of kids driving scene. Wasted comedy potential.

Fail of bear scene. Wasted comedy potential.

Fail of American and Canadian police scenes throughout.

Fail of climax scene.

Comments:

Fail of intro.

Fail of dystopia. Too stupid.

Again, some fiction should never be made into movies.

Reality sucks and everyone is into video games. Powerfully stupid. I was born in ‘82 and played Atari and even I think these types of dystopian futures are garbage.

The video game industry and Silicon Valley can shove this movie up there ass. To be fair, the storytelling structure of video games is getting better (so I hear).

They do whatever they want to do? So…murder, rape and pedophilia goes? Oh dear god.

Complete fail of everything. Complete fail of writing and directing.

Ah yes…the shareholders. Sigh.

What was the music clearance bill for this movie?

Fail of climax scene.

Fail of ending.

One of the worst movies of all time. This movie shouldn't have made $1.00. The fact that it made almost $600 million proves that God does NOT exist.

Decent to fail of most scenes. Oddly enough, this movie had good potential.

Good attempt to push cinematography, but it didn't work.

Decent to fail of flashback scenes throughout.

Hasn't taken a single coin for his work for Christ? And yet evangelicals who speak in tongues believe that Jesus wants them to be wealthy according to the Prosperity Gospel.

Did Christianity Cause the Crash? Prosperity gospel depression

The Cheap Prosperity Gospel of Trump and Osteen

Donald Trump American preacher evangelical prosperity movement Christian eschatology

The storytelling perspective doesn't work. Should have been done in the present of his life prior to meeting Jesus. A movie about Paul, all the way up to the execution.

Excellent intro.

Yes, the weather is bad with traffic jams. That’s life.

The Treasury destroys money? I had no idea.

Is that Leslie Bibb? Oh, my bad, it's Maggie Grace. They look alike. Must be the Illuminati cloning program in Hollywood. So many dumb blondes. Joking...joking. I'm sure they're both skilled actresses. Maggie Grace is in almost every movie. Kudos.

Fail of plot. Fail of bad crew people. Characters don't work.

Fail of police scene. Too unbelievable.

Fail of intro.

Boring relationships scenes.

The boy didn't ask permission to kiss the girl. That would be sexual assault in the eyes of the MeToo movement. She can claim that he manipulated her emotionally and that she was powerless to consent. That's where feminism and the MeToo movement is today. Unless they're too busy defending a powerful serial sexual harasser.
