My Week:
Wind River (2017 Netflix) : “ A veteran tracker with the Fish and Wildlife Service helps to investigate the murder of a young Native American woman, and uses the case as a means of seeking redemption for an earlier act of irresponsibility which ended in tragedy.” A true, simple and effective crime drama with good actors and beautiful, cold settings. Worth every minute but doubt I’d ever rewatch it. 7-7.5/10
Carrie (1976 TV): Some people LOVE this movie, some HATE it. I liked it. The slow-motion scene was too long, most scenes were good and only a few were disturbing. That's what I was hoping for, to be disturbed. Especially with what I read about the final scene and the prom scene. Prom scene was cool, final scene was weak. I really enjoyed the scenes with the mother. Especially the one where she cuts vegetables. So; solid acting, respectable directing, crazy story makes for a good film. 7/10
Cars 3 (2017 Netflix): I haven’t seen the first two Cars but I really enjoyed that one and I don’t understand the 1/10 and 2/10 reviews claiming their consternation and shock toward the last part of this movie. It’s uplifting, fun and the graphics are a big 10/10. I saw a lot of critics toward the way the movie handle the subject of aging. Apparently, cartoons don’t have the right to age. An hour into the movie the jokes start to get old themselves but apart from that, I had no problem. Oh and btw, his name in French is better I think; Flash McQueen. Say it, Flash McQueen. Way better than Lightning McQueen. 7.5/10
Jumanji: Welcome to the jungle (2017 DVD): “Four teenagers are sucked into a magical video game, and the only way they can escape is to work together to finish the game.” My friend told me this movie was a 7.5 quality wise and a 9.5 entertainment wise. He had me convinced, he got me fooled. It’s not bad but I only laugh 2-3 times and not big ones. If not for the actors, this movie has very little to offer. 6-6.5/10
