Death Note (I) (2017)

Never saw the Japanese manga so I really enjoyed this movie

[7/10 · 2 May 2023]

I really enjoyed this movie, having never seen nor heard about the Japanese manga it's based on, I can't compare this movie to it, therefore as a supernatural thriller, it's not a horror movie to me, it was very entertaining, something very different and it kept my interest throughout. The ending was unfinished to me, therefore leaving a window open for a sequel. I'm hoping there will be a part two, I'm intrigued. However seeing the number of negative reviews that might not happen, most negative reviews are from people who have seen the Japanese manga. I say give it a try, check it out, you should be entertained.

First Kill (2022)

It's bad

[2/10 · 11 June 2022]

Is it a comedy, is it a spoof, I don't know but it was bad. I gave it an extra star just because watching it gave me something to do, and it appeased just a tad bit of my amusement for vampire flicks.

Christmas Is Canceled (2021)

For those who want a different type Christmas movie

[8/10 · 20 December 2021]

I liked it, it's one of the holiday movies I can watch and not feel completely sad at the end of it. You know those Christmas movies where everyone falls madly in love and lives happily ever after, while you, the viewer is single. I mean some of that is in this movie, but not overwhelming so.

Marlon Wayans: You Know What It Is (2021 TV Special)

Terrible

[1/10 · 20 August 2021]

It was not funny at all. He spent way to much time on bellybuttons at the beginning that I nearly turned it off, but I thought it has to get better, it never did.

Music (I) (2021)

It's a good movie, watch it with an open mind.

[7/10 · 4 August 2021]

I found nothing offensive about the person casted as the autistic character Music, my niece is non-verbal autistic and I saw a lot of my niece in Music, a lower functioning autistic person. From the sounds she made, hand and eye movements, outburst, even the walking on her tip toes, all of it, she did great research to play this role. Anyone who thinks she did a disservice to autistic people have never seen this level of autism.

Music and dance scenes were used to convey what might be going on in the mind of an autistic person and also it was used to express what was going on deep within each of the other main characters. Some of those scenes I didn't like, strange music, odd dances and costumes. However a few were actually very good, especially when it was from Music's mind. I always wonder what my niece might be thinking, as sometimes she would start laughing or crying for what seems like no reason, but there is something going on within her which she can't express to us.

And there is a story being told, it's not just about an autistic girl. I enjoyed the story as it unfolded, I even cried.

It's a good movie, watch it with an open mind.

The Upshaws (2021– )

Pleasantly surprised

[7/10 · 13 May 2021]

I didn't have high hopes for this, however it was really good, tackled some great issues and wasn't overrun with ridiculous comedy.
