The Invisible Man 2020



     The horror movie genre is a sort after genre. It's ability to instill fear despite being an act is quite commendable. 

Cast

Elizabeth Moss, Oliver Jackson Cohen,Aldis Hodge, Storm Reid,Harriet Dyer, Micheal Dorman.

     The invisible man was a break from the norm of regular horror story. With horror movies and haunting, you would expect the presence of a malevolent spirit, but the case was quite different. It takes a look at the life of an abusive woman who must do what she can to escape her abuser; her husband.

 

    A suicide case turns to a haunting case, as the "spirit" of her husband comes knocking. With the lives of loved ones on the line, she races against time to prove her innocence and sanity.

     The main actress Elizabeth Moss who starred as Cecilia Kass  was impeccable in her acting. Her facial expressions were dead on as they accurately depicted what she was going through at different stages. Though the movie leaned on a feminist level, it was a strong motivation to not stay in an abusive relationship. Oliver Jackson Cohen (Adrian) also delivered perfectly. Sending out psychopathic vibe throughout the movie.


     The supporting acts were also on que and delivered accordingly. I could feel their fear and anger. The directing was also amazing, as the intense kept building up to the very end.

     This remake was definitely worth it, though it wasn't the continuation of the initial storyline. Popular rating sites like Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic were on the favourable side as they gave  positive reviews of up to 90percent. The movie was a box office hit with a budget as low as 9million it grossed above 100million.

I'll recommend this anytime. Also try watching it at night, it makes the feeling more intense.

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...

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. Hi...

DOLITTLE

     Many of us -most especially the vets would give anything to understand what our beloved pets are saying. To know what every meow and woof signifies. But alas, we are not gifted that way.      But the opposite was the case for Dr John Dolittle who could understand every animal there was -even a dragon- and communicate in their individual languages too.       This  family adventure movie sees Robert Downey Junior(RDJ) take on a different, calmer role than his iconic Iron Man.  Cast Antonio Banderas (King Rassouli), Harry Collett, (Tom Stubbins). Voice over actors involved in the movie were Emma Thompson (Polynesia the parrot), Rami Maleek (Chee Chee, the gorilla), John Cena (Yoshi the bear), Kumail Nanjiani (Plimpton the ostrich), Octavia Spencer (Dab Dab the duck), Tom Holland (Jip the lurcher), Craig Robinson (Kevin the squirrel), Selena Gomez (Betsy the Giraffe), Ralph Fiennes (Barry the Tiger), Mari...
