Unexpectedly entertaining. I was going to skip it seeing all the reviews, but I'm glad I didn't cuz I had a great time watching this one. But yeah there was definitely a lot of room for it to be better. The Eddie/Venom dynamic was the best thing about the movie.

7/10

Venom

Tom Hardy steals the show he is efin awesome both as Eddie and Venom. Villian is weak but I think intentionally. Other characters are also ok. Its short duration helps it alot as well.

You should definitely watch it just for Hardy alone.

8/10

Yup to say that I almost skipped it due to the consistently bad reviews shows how harsh they were being to the movie. I enjoyed it a lot and would watch it again tbh.

ANT-MAN AND THE WASP (2018)

"~Wassaaaaaap!"

Something about Marvel movies that I just can't dislike. This sequel isn't as dark as the first movie, heck isn't even that smart. This whole fiasco would've been avoided if 'Ava/Ghost' had asked nicely. But the script, humor, stunts, and shrinking cars and buildings were enough to cheer me up. 'Quantum entanglement with Janet', 'kitchen scene', 'baba yaga', 'whole shorty-Lang school run', 'Ava, truth serum', 'card tricks'; lots of fun to be had.

The best part, Evangeline Lilly. She OWNED The Wasp. Looked stunning in her suit, had some great action choreography, and lead the movie better than Paul Rudd. Connection to Infinity War, prevails the consistency of Marvel universe. It baffles me how easy it looks to connect the dots of different characters. Extremely joyus and entertaining, laughed hard many times. 8/10

slice: 7/10
a bit different kind of movie where ghosts and the living are living together :p or know their presence and are fine with it haha..

sicario day of the soldado: 7.5/10
i saw the first one in the cinema and kinda at times felt bored but this one i saw at home and tbh this felt more engaging and adrenaline pumped although it lacked the strong dialogue delivery of the first. this sequel turns this movie more like a franchise now making up for more sequels or so

the toybox: 5.5/10
a haunted rv of sorts... was OK thriller.

Bleach: 7/10
quite honestly this live action bleach was better than i expected. they covered the first 10 or so episodes quite nicely in this one. hoping to see more of these soon i guesss

Pacific Rim 2: Uprising .................(7.5/10) watched in HD, man as much as I loved the first part this one was nowhere close to the awesomeness of it, only two significant scenes, so time pass popcorn flick only!!

Ready Player One..........................(8.5/10) watched in HD, finally a good movie after a long time, loved the CGI and pop culture references. The last battle with Mechagodzilla and Gundam was awesome! Must watch guys!

Jurassic World 2: Fallen Kingdom...................(6/10) watched in HD, man as much as I love the Jurassic Park series, this World series is nowhere close to that. They made dinosaurs as some kind of pets you can keep or coexist with them! Movie overall was just ok though!

Ant Man and the Wasp...............................(8/10) watched in HD, so this one was much better than the previous part with a much more interesting storyline with a nice comedic element. The after credit scene is must watch to connect this movie with Avengers 3 aftermath!

The Spy Who Dumped Me..........................(8/10) watched in HD, watched it only cuz of Mila Kunis, overall an average movie just for time pass! Kate McKinnon was so annoying though!!

Ghost in the Shell..........................(7/10) watched in HD, I am a huge fan of the original Ghost in the Shell anime so I kinda liked it, they deviate from the story a lil bit but overall an ok movie!

THE SPY WHO DUMPED ME (2018)

~ "Sometimes the sweetest pleasure comes when you're not enjoying yourself."

1st 9 Minutes are explosive, in a sense that the brilliant action choreography catches your attention (jumping off of rooftops, motorbikes, hand to hand combat). Sublime camera work and lack of shaky cam truly shows the effort put into every scene. And it's an experience to be had afterwards.

Kate McKinnon outshines everyone, and most of the jokes hit the spot well. Perfect amount spent on both lead guys, and the plot is tad interesting. Can't say the same about Mila Kunis, though. She's become boring, and has seemingly lost the energy and charm.

I actually had a really good time watching this, and laughed hard at multiple occasions. 7/10

teen titans go to the movie: 7.5/10
i was really looking forward to watching this at the local cinema but they never brought it here :( so waited about 3 months to watch this when a bluray or webdl came out and finally did. its a fun movie like the deadpool of the cartoon verse etc... many cameos and such which were awesome even one from our dear friend from marvel haha

hold the dark: 7/10
honestly very weird movie but intriguing at the same time... weird is how i'd rate this movie yet hooked a bit

F the prom: 6/10
teen movie etc high school and prom stuff. pop corn flick

malevolent: 7.5/10
this one was quite a gripping supernatural movie, quite tad slow but how it ends up etc could give even big rated supernaturals which at the end disappointed us.

Saw The real sequel to the original halloween at cinepax packages mall tonight

Spoiler: show



the movie had gruesome deaths ohh yes :D loved that part, story building etc mostly like the original and all. the characters were good. jame lee curtis was back and she's a grandma but a badass grandma.

i just loved some of the scenes that reminded of the original halloween infact few of the scenes were nodding back to the first one. all in all a very good sequel i would say better than that rob zombie one IMO..

Rating: 7.5/10
