A good enough thriller about "Events repeating itself, only this time with a different end result. 6.5/10

It
8.5/10

It was creepy but the scare factor isnt that high since the trailers have shown the creepiest scenes of the movie. Movie also feels to long since they had to make every kid have a nightmare experience. Overall, I recommend you pipz watch it.

I also enjoyed IT and recommend it as a good creepy movie.
I'm curious about part 2 which will completely recast the characters - except for Pennywise the Dancing Clown.

I went to the movies 2 days ago and I watched IT.

FUCKING AWESOME! 10 out of 10

Zeitgeist

Girls Trip, and I can never look at grapefruits the same way ever again. 10/10

2222

I saw few movies during the weekend

1. Pored mene (2015)
The story is more like The Breakfast Club (1985), a class of kids stuck in the school for a night. Tell stories and life of almost each of them, about friendship, peer pressure, love, families and of cause gay life and closeted student. I like it, gave it 7/10.

2. Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)
I know this movie will have this ridiculous story that a man that made from flesh and bones would never survive that kind of action. But, I can resist to watch it because its a freaking franchise. Gave it a fair 5/10.

3. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017)
Entertaining, though the story a little bit predictable. Johnny Depp character is the whole heart of the movie. Without him, its dead. 6/10

mother 8/10

Really? That movie is getting hammered on RottenTomatoes, and the critics appear to loathe this movie. Why do you like it?

Annabelle: Creation.

It was okay. Worth watching once. 6/10

The Secret Kiss (2017)

The plot is similar to Drink Me (2015) minus the vampire and frontal nudities. It could have been good but somehow lacking in something which I can't exactly put into words. 4/10

Maybe a vampire and full frontal nudity?

Come to think of it, forget the vampire, must be the prolonged frontal nudity in drink me is what lacking in The Secret Kiss"

I liked it cause i knew what i was getting into before i saw it, i liked the acting and i liked that it made you think even after it was finished. It was also very allegorical and most people didn't expect that.

Agree with you on that and I would rate it 7/10

The Little Hours (2017)

Movie based on The Decameron (1971) the segment of Deaf and Mute man with the nuns. Funny enough 6/10

Zeitgeist

Flatliners (2017). It wasn't as good as the original, but hey, it did well to compensate for the lack of Julia Roberts.

Mother. 8/10

Don't believe the rotten reviews. Mother is an art film, a good one that is knowingly pretentious, that was mismarketed as a horror film. I'm glad that audiences are loudly protesting against the flim (and that it's flopping) so that whoever distributed it will learn from this mistake. Mother took in eight million dollars off a 150 million budget (plus marketing).

The film is a multi-level allegory. The obvious one is that it plays as the first few books of The Bible plus Revelations but there are other surprises mixed it. There's a wicked sense of humor interwoven within the plot that people aren't talking about – the film is funny. It's also unnerving.

If you like art house cinema pick it up on DVD.

A lot of Specfic films are poorly advertised due to stereotyping.

One that jumps to mind - I know a bunch of people who went to see Arrival with certain expectations. (It's an alien invasion movie costarring Jeremy Renner.) It's about linguistics and the complexity of life.

You're right, but the misdirect for Mother was nearer to Lady On The Lake. Both were marketed as horror, so that fanbase went to see it. LOTL is kind of a fairy tale but Mother is an art film. Of course, people are going to be pissed and not understand what's going on.

Over here in Japan Wonder Woman opened a few weeks ago. It was mis-advertised as a love story. A love story! I was indignant (huge comic book fan here). They even tied Nozomi 48 (an all-girl pop sugar-sweet pop group) to the film and its marketing.

Wonder Woman bombed here.

Forget the patriarchy. Down with the marketing department!

And Edward Scissorhands was a legend rather than a fairytale. It didn't have a romantic/happy ending.

Baby Driver (2017)

To be honest, I'm not really into car or car chasing movies, but I like the idea surrounded by this Baby driver. I like the story, almost original. And I was curious also about some big Oscar winner in the movie, Jamie Foxx and Kevin Spacey, they good with exceptional acting Kevin Spacey always do.

Its entertaining. The one that I don't like is the Buddy character at the last quarter of the movie. He was suddenly managed to escape and confront the Baby.

7/10
