It’s time for your movie reviews! So, with the Oscar deadline long past and the Academy Awards ceremony just over, this is usually the time when the film season dies down. You can count on action-packed
superheroes and franchise films to attract box-office attention.
Here were my predictions for the winners: The Revenant, Brie Larson for Best Actress, Kate Winslet or Alicia Vikander for Best Supporting Actress, Spotlight for Best Film, Alejandro Inarritu for Best Director, and Leo, finally!!! The rest, well that was up to the Academy. Now, let’s begin with
what’s hot right now.
DEADPOOL with Ryan Reynolds and Morena Baccarin. Okay this movie was not what I expected! It’s about a man who is forced to become a superhero after becoming ill. It’s not your run-of-the-mill superhero movie, though. It’s rated R for violence and surprisingly, raunchy language. It’s pretty funny and in a different way than you would expect. It’s also number one at the box office. So Go see it! 2 1/2-3 stars, sorry I can’t decide!
ZOOLANDER 2 with Ben Stiller and Owen Willson. Derek is back to his old ways. After returning to a fashion show in Rome, Derek and Hansel see how much the fashion world has changed. They eventually come across Penelope Cruz’s character of an agent needing their help to stop the murders of pop stars all over the world. Can he do it? Relax, don’t do it, when you’re not gonna go to it. Relax I’m totally kidding, or am I? It’s a big downgrade from the first, but I guess you could go? 1 1/2 star.
Right now with giving the best choices, and since I’ve reviewed pretty much all of the movies in past articles, I want to put the spotlight on some Netflix awesomeness.
Breaking Bad fans!!! I hope you’ve been watching Better Call Saul. If you haven’t, no sweat! The first season is on Netflix, and the second season is only on its 3rd episode! It features Jimmy McGill, better known as rambunctious lawyer Saul Goodman, and his life before his time on Breaking Bad. It shows his rise as a lawyer, and the things you never would have guessed about him.
Also, Dope is a new release, Netflix is stepping up their game! Dope follows central, nerd character Malcolm, and his struggles in a rough neighborhood. Things seem hard, but when given an opportunity, he and his friends go on a fun adventure throughout one of the best cities in the world: Los Angeles, The City that Never Sleeps.
Anyway, that’s all I have for you in this edition of Movie Reviews. I hope you tuned into the Oscars. A.k.a. the movie extravaganza of the year! Let’s see if I was right or if I was wrong with my predictions. Until next time!
