Movie Reviews and Trivias

JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK: APOKOLIPS WAR I didn't know how to deal with this movie. In fact, I still don't. This finale to a long storyline left me with so many whys, what ifs, and a lot of brooding. Cast Matt Ryan, Jerry O'Connel, Taisaa Famiga, Tony Todd, Stuart Allan, Ray Chase, Rosario Dawson, Rain Wilson, Rebecca Romijin, Camilla Ludington, Christopher Gorham Dark Side is one villain that's a proverbial pain in the ass. Even Superman has issues defeating him. A devorer, a conqueror and chaos ate some terms attributed to Dark Side. Justice League Apokolips War was just nerve-wrecking. Favourites fell, some died, some were brainwashed. Yes, the Rotten Tomato ratings was a 100. And some would argue that it's a befitting ending. I was just sad while watching. This doesn't take away the action and fight scenes, even a growing love interest. Well, what can I say. We just have to wait for the next flash point.

SCOOB 2020 Adventure, Crime, and a dose of laughter is sure to follow the Mystery Incorporated. Cast Zac Efron, Mark Wahlberg, Gina Rodriguez, Will Forte, Frank Welker, Amanda Seyfried. This story had an underlying message embedded--even the best of friends have disagreements. The bond between Shaggy and Scooby has always been undeniably strong, their eating habits, their show of cowardice and their unusual manner of locating trap doors.  The inclusion of an origin story and the blend with other Hannah Barbara characters brought about a serious-not so serious storyline. Simon Cowell's cameo appearance was unexpected to be honest. Zac Efron as Freddy, no surprise there. The actor has proven that he can fit into any role, be it as a serial killer, a musician, a highschool sweetheart, or even a "green" activist. Will Forte did fairly well as Shaggy, considering the shoes he had to fit. Really happy that Scooby wasn't changed, that would have been a total turn off. Overal...

THE WRONG MISSY Blind dates are definitely a gamble. You never can tell who you'll run into or what you'll be dealt with. The Wrong Missy is a hilarious movie and was released by Netflix on May 13, 2020. Cast Lauren Laptus, David Spade, Nick Swardson, Gieoff Pierson, Jackie Sandler, Sarah Chalke, Joe Anoia. Lauren Lapkus plays Missy, a socially inept, weird lady who is quite frankly "crazy". Despite being a certified counsellor, a hypnotist, paramedic, and many other things, she still finds it hard to find love. The stunts she pulled in the movie are so bizzare and her laughter- high-pitched. David Spade plays Tim Morris, a successful man who is trying his best to find love and impress his boss. He definitely gets more than he bargained for on this trip and must deal with the consequences. A weekend of fun at the carribean, turns to a mad adventure for both Missy and Tim, as things take a nose-dive. Definitely expected more from other cast members, because it looked l...

MOVIE REVIEW; LOVEBIRDS 2020 The month of May seems to be filled with comedy. Lovebirds is the latest in the long line of movies to be released this year. It was released digitally by Netflix on the 22nd of May  and has received positive reviews mostly.  Cast Kumail Nanjiani (Jibrin), Issa Rae (Leilani Brooks); Anna Camp (Eddie), Paul Sparks (Moustache); Kyler Bornheimer (Breet), Andrene Ward-Hammond (Detective Martin) Director: Michael Showalter. I'll try to talk about this movie without actually "spoiling" it. Issa Rae plays the role of Leilani, an African-American in a relationship with an Indian. Yeah, you read right. The blend is just "sweet." Rae is a darling. I mean, really, a screen darling. The way she goes about comedic roles, and that funny facial expression she always has just makes you want to laugh your ass out. How she doesn't crack up mid-sentence, I wonder. Kumail Nanjiani plays Jibrin. He is, for lack of a better word, fun. I couldn't s...

Images:Nerdbot News has got out that a "live action remake" of Hercules is in the works. So I guess it's safe to say that Disney will remake all their animations. Wonder if the Emperor's New Groove will also be remade. What I hope to see . I hope the remake will not be so far off from the original story. And please, no Dwayne Johnson, find us someone different. 1. The Muses Those three muses were to die for. Their singing was also topnotch. 2. Pegasus I don't know how they intend doing it, but I definitely want to see Pegasus talk. 3. Pleas show us Zeus and Olympus, no omission of any kind 4. Hades and the fates The baddest of all bad guys with that ridiculous hair and stupid assistants. Would love to see at least 70% of the original sorry.

CAST Chris Hemsworth (Tyler Rake) Rudhraksh Jaiswal (Ovi Mahajan) Randeep Hooda (Sanju Rav) David Harbour (Gasper) Pankaj Tripathi (Ovi Mahajan Snr)       Whenever hype surrounds a movie two things are sure to happen. 1: it lives up to expectations. 2: it doesn't live up to expectations. Extraction is a 2020 Netflix movie starting Chris Hemsworth who plays the role of Tyler Rake. SPOILERS      The story is based on the decisions of a mercenary (Tyler Rake) who goes on that life changing decision and must decide to break protocols or not. And at his mercy is the abducted son of a drug baron (Ovi) who will experience the negative effects of being a drug barons child.     Now back to that hype. I feel the hype was based on the stunt choreography. I must say that the fight scenes and gunfights were beautifully choreographed. Every action was caught precisely and accurately. Was impressed with the r...

CAST Mark Wahlberg (Spenser) Winston Duke (Hawk) Alan Arkin ( Henry Cimoli) Bokeem Woodbine (Driscoli) Marc Maron ( Kayne Cosgrove) Iliza Shlesinger (Cissy Davis)       Spenser confidential is a compelling watch. It follows the story of a good cop (Spenser) who goes out of his way to set things right. He is incarcerated and released, only to find out that half the cops have been bought over by a kingpin including his best friend.       He teams up with a ex convict and roommate (Hawk) and together they try to amend the wrongs done to the unjustly accused good cops. This is definitely not the first time I've seen Mark take up a comedic action role. His bad ass attitude and child like demeanour makes it all so interesting to watch.     Winston Duke didn't disappoint either. Having seen him in Us and Black Panther, this was definitely another look and quite commendable. It's good to see he's not taking on a particular type of...
