SONIC THE HEDGEHOG

Okay. I absolutely adored this movie.

I'm a sucker for games and movies. So when game characters are incorporated into movies so perfectly, I get all giddy.

Cast

Ben Schwartz,James Madsen, Jim Carrey, Tika Sumpter, Lee Majdoub.

The redesign was totally worth it, even though it cost more money, it paid off.

Spoilers ahead.

       I've watched different sonic cartoons and also played the game, but the movie was a hit. A blue alien hedgehog leaves his own planet because people want to use his powers..He comes to Earth-Green hill to be specific and spy's on all the neighbors, particularly the sheriff whom he calls "Donut Lord".


But as it is with lending assistance to strangers, trouble always follows.

     Lemme start with the voicing for sonic.

Ben Schwartz was pretty impressive in his voicing, sounding like a young boy and portraying how their mind works. 

Sheriff Tom (Madsen) was cool. Not so serious and not so unserious. His performance wasn't excessively action based, but had a mix of warmth, friendliness to it.  I love how expletives weren't completed at the end of a sentence; because it's a pg film.


      My major surprise was Jim Carrey. It was so good seeing him again after a long absence from the screen. Considering the fact he always acts as a weirdo in his movies, becoming Dr Robotnik wasn't difficult. His enigmatic display, as well as puns, I particularly liked "Rockonissance". I liked when he told Wade to sit there and be "you"...sless. Lol


    The movie was a box office hit, a whopping 300million in box office. Reviews were mixed. Commendations on the redesigns and acting skills but the storyline according to then was plain. Well,  I enjoyed it non the less. It's a fun movie for game lovers and a binding family movie.

The Gentlemen; Movie Review

CAST   Matthew McConaughey (Michael Pearson) Charlie Hunnam (Raymond Smith) Henry Golding (Dry Eye) Hugh Grant ( Fletcher) Michelle Dockery (Rosalind Fletcher) Jeremy Strong (Matthew Berger) Eddie Marson (Big Dave) Colin Farrell (Coach).       The words " drug" and " Mafia" have been known to be associated with blood, chain of commands and dirty deals. The world of drugs isn't one to be taken lightly as every action can be interpreted as either weakness or strength. The Gentlemen showed a slightly different approach to the drug world. It wasn't without deaths and orders but it hard a slightly comedic part to it. Spoilers ahead .      If you've seen the movie, then you can either agree or disagree with some of the wordings here. But if you haven't, I'll try to lessen the spoilers. If the movie had been 3hours long or even 4hours, I doubt if I would notice. Because I was glued to my screen till the very end. The blend and scenery was q...

The turns in the The Turning

The horror movie genre is one of the most successful genre in the movie industry. Scary endings and suspense filled scenes have carved a niche and are not going anywhere anytime soon.     Inconclusive endings are not new to the genre but some endings are indeed too inconclusive.The turning is a 2020 horror movie which held a lot of scare factors but failed to land at a significant point.      With little similarities to The Boy 1, a young lady decides to tutor an orphaned little girl at their manor but is met with circumstances she could have never prepared for.         The whole story started out quite well -the creaking doors, the shadows, the nightmares and then there was an addition of the creepy behaviour given off by Miles, the brother of Flora.      The major flaw in the movie was the absence of a definitive conclusion, too many questions were left unanswered- Is Kate insane? Is Miles truly posses...
