Yesterday (2019) - Rated 18 Oct 2019

I sure liked it. At the end of the day, it's actually just a simple romantic movie, with a few funny and equally serious moments. The soundtrack is obviously good and even though I feel like this wasted so much potential, I was still invested throughout, mainly because of the great chemistry between James and Patel. Patel was a fresh new face! *Good

American Sniper (2014) - Rated 24 Jan 2015

Political views aside, this was a good and thrilling war movie. A few glimpses of Eastwoods brilliance, but not nearly enough to match some of his previous work. Cooper does an excellent job of shaking off his lady-charm and Miller was very convincing as the worried wife back home. I was definitely entertained. - Good

Spectre (2015) - Rated 31 Oct 2015

This was actually a bit disappointing. I could never hope for anything as good as Casino Royale, but with Skyfall, Mendes made me think that he was going back in the right direction with the franchise. The opening scene with the death festival masks and all, really set a tone and got my hopes up for a dark Bond movie. Unfortunately, the story was a bit bland, character development absent, the lame Bond jokes increased and definitely not Craigs best Bond performance. *Okay

Her (2013) - Rated 30 Jan 2014

I'm a bit speachless... This movie strikes at the heart of our convenience, and challenge us on our still increasing obsession with technology. I'm a bit torn on this subject, and would have to see this movie a few more times to really grasp the importance of it's message. If I could keep one function though, it would be the ability to hear the score to my life as it happens. I am absolutely amazed by how this movie, with so little, does so much! - Fantastic

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013) - Rated 16 Dec 2013

Without having read the book, an therefore having no clue to what the last installment will unfold, this movie have confirmed my thougts, on how this adventure survives us critical viewers. I really don't believe this story would have won our hearts, had it not been for the LOTR movies. Thank God for giving us those, because I am truly in love with this universe. This movie is more entertaining than the first one, and has more depth in almost every aspect. - Very Good.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014) - Rated 02 May 2014

I actually like the "new" witty Peter Parker compared to Maguire's shy version. Obviously there is great chemistry between Garfield and Stone and that definitely highs the experience, although, in between the great action, you miss the real motivation, the real hurt and anger, for this to kick in. Still, it's all good fun, better than the first one, and I'm looking forward to the next installment.
