Shazam! Fury of the Gods (2023)

This movie suffers from one thing and one thing alone....

Missed opportunity....

Why?

If only Warner Bros knew what to do with DC!

If only Walter Hamada knew what to do with DC!

If only after the merger with Discovery they sat down and planned this out instead of playing who has a bigger (male privates)!

It is so damn frustrating.

When Shazam (2019) was first release, it was the underdog and it was a hit!

Nobody apparently at Warner Bros expected that because a sequel was nevery planned....

They scrambled and hastily announce a sequel and then COVID hit....

And then Wonder Woman 1984 happened.... 

Zack Synder apparently had alot of input for the first Wonder Woman movie and was not involved in the second....

So Walter and gang apparently went into panic mode and shuffled things around.

Having you lead in a hugely invested The Flash movie proving to be more fruity compared with a entire warehouse of Fruit Loops did not help matter...

And I digress...

Black Adam was release before this and that was a mistake.

I fully blame Walter Hamada and the management of Warner Bros for this because that wanted to know if Walter-verse has any lightning in the bottle...

Alas no...

Back to this movie.

I like it.

I like it alot.

The kids were wonderful

Their heroes counterpart were also good.

The villians are my only qualm with the movie, namely

Other then that, I am god with the movie.

There are 2 end credit scenes.

Please go and enjoy the movie

My Two Sen

P.S. watched this at IOI City MAll 2 Imax Laser theatre.

It is me or are IMAX theatre shrinking in size....

The Laser Projecter is super good though

Haha i was surprised why no scream vi in Malaysia hoho

It was the hit in US opening weekend actually

Be a use alot of people is spending time and effort hating on a local production therefore no time to bring in Scream 6?....

65 (2023)

I am on a roll!

I have been accused of being a Rotten Tomato "champion".

The truth is, I really do not visit the site at all...

Why am I on a roll?

I actually enjoyed 65.

I actually watched this before I watched Shazam Fury of the Gods, which I also like.

One week before actually.

I actually appreciate the way forest were depicted in the movie, that looked more "wild", more "primordial".

No I am no expert and can only express that the filmmaker were able to induce me into thinking so...

Very simple premise, how to survive crashing onto an very ancient earth. That's it.

I  am not really an Adam Driver fan.

I thought he was decent here.

I was happy to had spent money watching this at the cinema.

Again, please do understand, the above, is just me two sen.

Haha really meh April 4 me

Other than Mario movie and Sisu nothing pulls me back 2 the cinema

It will only pick up from May with Fast X and Guardians 3

You should consider watching Dungeons and Dragons.

It is quite entertaining

I really don't know how they are going to make Barbie work...

Renfield (2023)

I think it would be a far stretch for me to assume that many people here had watch Universal's 1931 Dracula with Bela Lugosi.

Why did I bring that up?

Well, for one, I had actually watched that and secondly, this movie can be seen as a sequel to that movie.

I was tickled pink when I watched this and the link was made to that movie.

This movie is a unicorn in Hollywood.

Why?

It is high concept and it is a comedic horror.

I challenge you to name another comedic horror that was made recently.

When Nicolas Cage appeared as Dracula, I was actually mesmerised!

When he appeared the second time in the movie, I was blown away by the makeup effect!

Nicholas Hoult's Renfield is GREAT!

The English actors are really chameleons... They just seem to slip into their roles.

I am the first to admit that I am not a fan of Awkwafina.

Whatever role she is in, she's Awkwafina.

Let's leave it at that.

I enjoyed this movie.

I love it, I really really did.

Please do not bring little kiddies to this movie...

Very VERY gore-rific!!!
