The Hitman's Bodyguard (2017)

~Tick Tock Madafaka ...


Legendary madafaka Samuel L. Jackson, delivering some of the great 'madafaka' lines out there. I'd agree. Mr Jackson has single handedly ruined the word madafaka. It's not a cuss word anymore, if he's saying it lol. Surprisingly, great chemistry between Reynolds and Jackson. I, for one, absolutely adored the 'long' conversations they had. Situation based humor is pure fun. Stunts aren't so bad as well.

What's not good? 2 hours runtime, Abundance of flashbacks, Gary Oldman's mada'fakin' accent (hah), under utilized hotness of Salma Hayek. Lackluster plot. Sudden shifts in tone. 'Please madafaka'. This is total entertainment. Goofy, but works. I had lots of fun. 6/10.

Saw "Justice league" Midnight premiere show at cinestar IMAX last night

Spoiler: show



man saw the midnight premiere of justice league show at 1230am in the morning and it was awesome, the reviews and everything so far by critics is quite exaggerated. the movie has lots of fun and heart and at the same time i'd agree had issues like the cgi thing sure that i did saw at TIMES bad but it wasn't like the whole cgi was bad infact cyborg looked good i didn't fine anything bad with his cgi but few times that superman mustache removal with cgi was bad but only two times i felt that. wouldn't wanna ruin what and where but yeah.

apart from that the movie was good, especially after half time or so, some scenes were just epic man.

few things to note, steppenwolf was OK not that great but not bad at all. he was formidable to an extent :)

it's definitely as they are saying it a step in the right direction for dceu just make a bit more changes to the pacing and all stuff and this would be perfect.

ps: wait for end credits i gasped so loud MAN that really end scene :D SOO FREAKING EXCITED faaakk


Rating: 8.5/10

Did they make the movie a little too fluffy and joyful? Or does it still maintain a bit of darkness that BvS had

Justice League

Ok, it was pretty bad. And you have no idea how much it hurts to say that as a DC Fanboy. I had a love/hate relationship with BvS, but after seeing this it was clearly the better movie. JL seemed like a low budget movie compared to BvS.

For starters, they need to chill with Wonder Woman, it was literally a Wonder Woman and Team situation. The action was pretty meh, there were no WOW moments, the villain was terrible, and every character seemed misused specially
Spoiler: show
Superman. I was expecting a much more exciting return rather than a Frankenstein experiment, but I didn't hate it. In fact it was the best part of the movie. But the fact that they didn't play his theme was a major fucking sin. Regardless, Superman was the best part, but they could've done so much more. They wasted him.
The movie was so rushed, but it didn't bother me until they just suddenly won the battle. Had an extremely forgettable background score. Shows how much value Hans Zimmer added to BvS.

Batfleck was amazing as always, my favorite version of Batman. Superman was gr8, I love Cavill as Supes, Aquaman was barely there, Flash was misused, and Cyborg just existed.

And the cringeworthy moments were not in shortage

-Lois' speech at the end
-Flowers growing out from those things after they won
-The victory shot of the team after they won. Idk made me cringe for some reason.

When Superman did his freezing breath

[MENTION=12088]wAnxTa[/MENTION] and that is why ppl are demanding the snyder cut with junkie xl theme, danny elfman's score to batman etc didn't work here.. WB putting whedon incharge i guess made things more awkward... i still think ZACK should had completed this project ... zacks cut is known to be 3 hours long, WB butchered it down to 2 hours.. plus whedon made changes too...

the CGI was bad i'd say that especially the whole reshoot with superman and the mi6 mustache issue :( but i had fun man, there were lots of good moments best being the time when superman catches flash man uff epic scene that was, how can you say no epic scene :p

Yeah.. pretty sure the involvement of Whedon and WB is what caused the mess. And haan but I did say that all the scenes with Superman were the best, I'm just mad that they didn't do more with him.

Thing is sure whedon worked for avengers because he did that himself from scratch.. taking on another directors work, cutting it making his own reshoots etc could make a mess of the whole project too.

i stil say whatever the end process WB should had let zack taken care of his baby justice league from start to finish and than they could had let him go whatever.. did whedons involvement made any changes here ? still got botched by critics no ?

Just because Whedon was successful with a project or two doesn't mean anything he touches turns to gold. Look at Age of Ultron for example, that shit was generic af.

Every scene he reshooted or added himself is being laughed at by the audience and is too easy to notice.

Ben Affleck is more fat in the reshoots. Jason Momoa Atlantis scenes background look like third class cgi in the reshoots. Henry Cavill looks like his upperlip is swollen.

Not with a project or two with many projects , and i don't know about you but age of ultron was highly successful financially ,critically and fan wise

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
