The Revenant Reviews
"The
Revenant" is probably the most beautiful movie I have seen for a long
time. This is not only due to the incredible locations, but also to the
excellent (and by excellent I mean excellent) camera-work. Frequently I
was just blown away by the sheer beauty of the rough terrain of Canada
and how it was captured by the crew. However, there are a few drawbacks.
Mainly the story (it is a very simple revenge story line) and the
dialog (it is basically not existent :D).
When I first left the
movie I was still blown away by all the great things I mentioned above
(I was thinking about a 10/10 rating), but the longer I was outside the
movie the more I recognized that "The Revenant" is a film that is
incredible entertaining whilst sitting in the cinema, but also a movie I
quickly forgot about when being at home again.
Still, the movie is definitely a must-see. Your money is well invested!
In The Equalizer, Denzel Washington plays McCall, a man who believes he
has put his mysterious past behind him and dedicated himself to
beginning a new, quiet life. But when McCall meets Teri (Chloë Grace
Moretz), a young girl under the control of ultra-violent Russian
gangsters, he can't stand idly by - he has to help her. Armed with
hidden skills that allow him to serve vengeance against anyone who would
brutalize the helpless, McCall comes out of his self-imposed retirement
and finds his desire for justice reawakened. If someone has a problem,
if the odds are stacked against them, if they have nowhere else to turn,
McCall will help. He is The Equalizer.

User Reviews
The
Equalizer is loosely based on an 80s television series with the same
name. This reinvention in comparison aims to be darker and much violent,
but the film's ambition is basically turning its star, Denzel
Washington, into a grittier action hero. It somehow pays off when he
starts killing bad guys in cold blood, and it's amazing how he could
still carry the character's humanity along the way. The film troubles
when it gets out of hand to its glorious vigilantism despite it takes
place in a world seems apart from that context. If you tend to ignore
the sentiments and shade of reality, you can still tell that it's a
pretty entertaining piece of action, but in general it's just difficult
to not notice its mess of tones, even with that amount of fun.
There
is one side in the film when it's totally gripping, that is when we
just see the protagonist as a person living in an ordinary life, often
being with people and often encountering them getting in trouble by
crime. This grounded world just keeps most of its darkness in their
presence, sometimes feeling like a doomed, helpless world. But once the
hero reveals what he truly is capable of, it doesn't actually sucks out
its entertainment quality, but it does betrays that intriguing context,
nearly turning itself into a superhero movie, except of course, it's
less silly and much violent. McCall, in shorthand, is too competent for
any criminal he fights and often leaves with a perfect swagger. It may
not be big deal to many viewers, especially the action fans who are
already enjoying the blood, but the film sets up an existing theme that
seems to be a lot interesting to consider instead of indulging itself
with its own way of justice.
The cool slow-mos and stylish
special effects might have also rob the sense of realistic tension, but
put that aside, each action scene is watchable enough, we don't usually
see a wider blockbuster today that has the guts to fearlessly show
brutal movie violence like this. This is probably the only mundane
element existing in those set pieces. Denzel Washington shifts his
character to two personalities: one is the likable ordinary man himself
and the anti-hero with a hidden cosmic hate through its world. The
performance does sum up the overall movie, from gravitas to smugness,
and what's great is they're both effective anyway. However, the villains
(and their tattoos) have blatantly shown that they're evil: the main
antagonist seems like he's written to be over-the-top, almost like a
cartoon villain than a believable human mafioso, but Marton Csokas gives
a little grimness as he have fun with it.
The Equalizer would
have been nicer if it was a little shorter and much consistent, but I
could guarantee that it still entertains, it does have the appeal
through its action and acting. Though, there are more serious things
that could have made it a lot compelling thriller. The film does have
the knack of embracing either of its elements, but it just keeps
shifting back and forth, like we're not getting to the actual big
picture. Well, if you can accept that the hero is this superior then it
might work better for the experience. For now, it can be endlessly
watchable, but you will only find few things that are remarkable about
it.

I
saw this film on the last night it was playing at my local theater and I
jumped on the opportunity. Once it was over I realized how smart of a
decision it was. I read a review of the film that said something along
the lines of, "the trouble with this film being 3 hours is that you want
to watch it for several more." I couldn't agree more with that
statement. The story, along with its characters, moves the film along to
the point where it didn't feel like 3 hours.
This film was
probably the most emotionally intense and powerful movie I've seen in a
very long time. You believed everything you were seeing and it forced
you to feel it along with the characters. As much that has been written
about this film, the acting can not be overstated. These two actresses
are a revelation in this movie.
It seems that whenever the topic
of homosexuality is covered by a film it usually contains some sort of
hate crime or bias against homosexuality somewhere in the story that the
film's characters have to face and overcome. What's refreshing about
this film is that there is a dash of that but its in the beginning of
the film and never becomes the focus of the conflict with the
characters. The film acknowledges that bias is there but brushes it
aside to say that there is something bigger and more important at play
with the characters. Really nice to see that in a film.
This movie ranks as one of the best films I've seen this year and am so happy I had a chance to see it.

I kept having to double-check whether the IMDb rating I was seeing was for the right movie.
This
movie is good. It doesn't even look low-budget, if you ask me. The
production values, the sets, the props and effects, and even the acting
are all pretty well up there in quality and are actually above-par for
an indie flick. In fact, the only clue I can see for this even being an
independent film is the lack of celebrity actors. Plop a couple famous
faces in here and I think anyone would be hard-pressed to tell the
difference from a Hollywood production.
The only explanation I
can see for the poor ratings is that people were expecting a sci-fi
flick and are judging the movie's compliance with that expectation. I've
seen this phenomenon before, and it's sad, because good movies end up
without the recognition they deserve.
This is actually a good
movie, in nearly every way. It's basically a war movie with a touch of
sci-fi, and in that regard it's actually rather exceptional. It's
well-written and well-acted, with convincing combat, and an interesting
and original story. It's my hope that people disregard the low ratings
and give movies like this a shot anyway.

***Don't
believe any of the positive 5-star reviews for this horrible "movie."
It is clear that they are either fake or being put up by friends or
family members of the people involved in the making of this movie.***
Bruce
Willis has done a few movies lately where he shows up for about three
short scenes, often shot in one location. It is clear that he was hired
for a single day's work for a lot of money. This is one of those movies.
His name and face is being used to sell, what is otherwise, a film
without any hope of recouping whatever little money that was spent on
it.
Where to start? Awful acting. Any acting student from a local
community college drama class could act better than all the leads in
this film. The woman lead was awful. The man playing the cop was awful.
Every actor was sleepwalking through the film. The movie has no plot. It
is done on a super low budget (most of the money went to Bruce, I am
sure.)
What was disappointing was that this is a Lionsgate film.
Lionsgate makes really good movies. But it was clear from the credits
that this movie was hacked together by a conglomerate of foreign
financing and production.

I
was never really into Spongebob as a kid or, stoned out teenager. I was
more of a Rocco's modern life guy. When is he coming out with a movie?
But you don't need to be a fan of the cartoon before, to love the movie
now. Half 2D animation like the TV show, half live action with
Spongebob and his friends done in 3D CGI, Antonio Banderas plays a
pirate captain of a ship telling what feels like another episode of
Spongebob with Plankton's new attempt on trying to steel the formula for
Krabby patties to make the Chum Bucket better. Than to flip the script
on us, the pirate captain steels the formula forcing the gang to travel
to the surface to get it back. It's a funny cartoon style comedy.
It's been a while since I've seen some slap stick cartoon animation and
the sponge delivers squeezing the laughter right out of you (pun). It
was a lot of little giggles leading up to a few big laughs. You can't
help it. A lot of smart people worked hard to make these guys real
stupid. And I love it when animation goes to the limit with it's
story telling. Spongebob had a very surrealistic feel. Just like the
cartoon, it was like I was on something but don't need to be to enjoy
the fun. And that was what the cartoon was in a nutshell, fun.
Playful for all audiences no matter what the age. Total good time at the
movies.

I
think everyone with a family and even adults need to get up and see
this movie. In my opinion, this puts Frozen in a corner forever. Seeing
as the lead character is a hero with black descent, supporting this
movie would majorly encourage more animation companies such as Disney,
Pixar etc. to follow in their footsteps. There were so many laugh out
loud moments and the message with this was so beautiful. Always stand
what for what you believe in and stand by your friends. Even though this
was an animation film involving aliens, It felt so realistic especially
with the character Tip. Tip is a normal teenager with "not-so-perfect"
hair, a tomboy lookalike, sassy and that's what makes her relatable. Not
some fake or over-enthusiastic girly-girl that wants to find prince
charming BS. To add to that, The music team did an amazing job. If you
don't like animations, definitely go for the soundtrack or even better,
purchase it. You wont be disappointed. Good on you Dreamworks, your hard
work deserves to pay off.

Why
all the hate for this movie? I understand not liking something, but
everyone seems to just TRASH it. Did I see the same movie? I saw an
emotional film about innocence and loss. I REALLY don't understand.
Sure, maybe the film didn't have the best dialogue or the best acting in
the world, but it hit home for me. The VFX were phenomenal, Chappie is
the best CGI motion capture I have seen in a long time, the 100%
electronic musical score by Hans Zimmer was really unique and fresh, and
it has a really great ending. I DON'T UNDERSTAND. If you like
Blomkamp's previous films or are remotely interested, please watch it
yourself. I think the critics are wrong on this one. I have been
thinking for a while about why the reviews are so out there. First off,
the trailers are AWFUL. The first to come out was this philosophical
"What does it mean to be human?" kinda movie. The TV trailers were
"GUNS, EXPLOSIONS, ROBOTS!!!" and it is neither. Think "Little Miss
Sunshine" with a robot, that is a more accurate representation.
Blomkamp's most underrated film.

'THE GUNMAN': Four Stars (Out of Five)
Another
respectable (and very serious) A-list actor turns to B- action movies,
very late in his career (and at over 50-years of age); following the
likes of stars like Liam Neeson. It's probably no coincidence that the
director of the film, Pierre Morel, also turned Neeson into an action
film star (when he directed him to superstar success in 2008's 'TAKEN').
Penn also co-produced this movie (with none other than action master
Joel Silver) and he also co-wrote the screenplay (with Don Macpherson
and Pete Travis). The film also features other highly praised
respectable A-list talent, in supporting roles; like Javier Bardem and
Idris Elba. The movie has failed to do well at the Box Office (so far)
though and it's also received mostly negative reviews from critics. I
think it's a blast and a lot of fun though; if you like B-action movies!
Penn
plays Jim Terrier; a highly skilled mercenary assassin, working for an
unnamed employer. On one job, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, he's
forced to kill the minister of mines there. He then must go into hiding;
in order to protect himself and his team, and abandon his girlfriend,
Annie (Jasmine Trinca). One of his team members, Felix (Bardem), helped
orchestrate Terrier's role in the assignment; so that he could swoop in
and steal Annie, for himself. Eight years later Terrier returns to the
Congo; to work for a non- profit volunteer group there. He's almost
killed by a hit squad though and realizes others, from his former team,
are also probably in danger; as well as Annie. Terrier then goes on a
deadly mission; to find out who was behind the attempt on his life, and
save his ex- girlfriend.
Sean Penn is in amazing shape, in this
movie, especially at 54- years-old! He looks, and surprisingly acts, a
lot like Sylvester Stallone (in this film). The whole movie, to me,
feels a lot like a Stallone flick, with Penn in the lead instead. To me,
that makes for a very fun film; to some though, that's the recipe for a
really cheesy and bad movie. That's why this got mostly bad reviews, I
think, and didn't do really well at the Box Office; Penn isn't an action
movie star (that's for sure). It is really odd to see him doing a film
like this; given his very serious attitude about politics, as well as
film (in general). I love the idea of him starring in a movie like this
though and I think this movie is really well made and entertaining; it's
also really dark, graphically violent and pretty suspenseful
(throughout). I can't believe actors like Bardem, Elba, Ray Winstone and
Mark Rylance also decided to join him in this venture! The movie is a
lot of fun; if you love action flicks and the idea of Sean Penn starring
in one!

The
trailer made me want to see this film, though I was not about to do so
with no frame of reference. So, I was sure to watch Horrible Bosses
beforehand, an enjoyable but underwhelming film. This sequel, however,
is one of the funniest films I have ever seen and certainly to my mind
the most outstanding example of a sequel improving on its predecessor.
The
film is cleverly plotted with refreshing comedic ideas. It also
references the first film in welcomed ways. This time around the trio
can just go for it with a great script and the experience of the 2011
film. I found Charlie Day's Dale Arbus annoyingly over the top at times
in the original, but in this sequel everyone is on point with real
comedic chemistry.
Christoph Waltz continues to flourish with his
supporting role. Chris Pine is great in his role. Jamie Foxx and Kevin
Spacey successfully reprise their roles as expected. I do not normally
think of myself as a Jennifer Aniston fan, but she is indispensably good
in both films. I was also happy to see Jonathan Banks, whom I remember
well for heavies he played in the '80s.

Though
"Endless Love" feels like a rehash of "The Notebook" (as if one were
needed), it's actually a remake of a long-forgotten film from 1980,
starring Brooke Shields and Martin Hewitt, based on the novel by Scott
Spencer. In fact, if that film is remembered at all, it's probably as
much for the drippy, inexplicably popular title song (sung by Diana Ross
and Lionel Ritchie) as for the movie itself (it also marked the screen
debut of Tom Cruise, which gives it some historical significance).
This
is another of those dime-a-dozen romances between two kids from
opposite sides of the tracks (as always, the adolescents are portrayed
by actors long out of their teens). Jade is a poor-little-rich-kid who's
just graduated high school and is about to embark on a promising career
in medicine. David, on the other hand, is all ready to set up life as a
mechanic in his dad's garage. The movie has to find a way to explain
how the beautiful Jade, who would clearly be the most popular girl in
any high school in the United States, just happens to be the least
popular girl at this one. Turns out Jade's brother died of cancer a few
years back and she's been isolating with her family ever since.
"Endless
Love" lines up its cast of stereotypes in dutiful fashion: the snooty
rich folk, the jealous exes, the super-supportive mother and brother,
the wisecracking sidekick, and the over-protective, elitist dad who
fairly drips with disdain for the lower social orders, of whom David is a
prime example, and who will stop at nothing to keep such a boy from
marrying his daughter.
Jade is such a dreamy-eyed dolt and David
such a paragon of dime-novel romance that it becomes impossible for us
to identify with either one of them as actual people. Even David's
allegedly troubled background seems gussied-up and phony, a bit of back
story tacked on to make him more relatable to the audience. It doesn't
work.
Riddled with cheesy dialogue and ridiculous plot points,
especially in the melodramatic finale, this sappy, white-bread take on
"Romeo and Juliet" (minus the poetry, of course) scrapes the bottom of
the barrel as far as recent movie romances go. Though, come to think of
it, at least they dropped that dreadful song. That's at least one point
in the movie's favor.

I
watched this with my girlfriend. We've never seen a Tinto Brass movie
before and just stumbled over this one at the local video store. At the
backside of the cover it says "erotic-thriller" by a "cultdirector". And
as we like both (erotic and thriller), we decided to give it a try. It
wasn't anything like we expected. My girlfriend hated it because of the
awful sex-scenes. There was no erotic, no thriller and no plot at all,
just a poor actress committed to an old mans chauvinistic fantasies. Men
don't talk in this movie, the only grab the poor actress's ass, pussy
or tits, which is followed by sudden sexual intercourse. And women only
talk about the size of penises and the need to have sex again. This
movie fells like it has been written in 2 hours after watching a
porn-movie. I'm pretty sure this was our first and last Tinto Brass 'cultmovie'-experience.

tools include the "hotshot," an electric prod used on the animal while
captive in the chute. The intense pain scares the animal into displaying
abnormally dramatic reactions. Other tools include metal spurs and
"bucking straps" that burn the animal's abdomen and groin area and cause
him to "buck" and can lead to back and leg injuries.Calf Roping: a
mounted rider yanks a calf into the air by his neck, slams him into the
ground, and ties his legs together. During this performance, calves may
cry out (if they can breathe), defecate from fear and stress, and suffer
neck injuries and death. Steer Busting: a rider ropes a steer with such
force the steer flips in the air. The injury and death rate is so high
the Nevada State Veterinarian forbids it from the National Finals Rodeo,
but this is easily bypassed by holding the event in other locations.
Steer Wrestling: in this event the steer endures a high level of stress
and can suffer ripped tendons, sprains and bruising, and even a broken
neck. Bull Riding and Saddle Bronc Riding: bucking straps, electric
prods, and spurs are used to hurt the animal and aggravate him into
reacting more roughly than he would naturally.Rodeos mean constant
trauma for the animals forced to participate. They suffer broken ribs,
backs, and legs, torn tails, punctured lungs, internal organ damage,
ripped tendons, torn ligaments, snapped necks, and suffer agonizing
deaths.
