SMILE (2022) Summary and Review

   SMILE (2022) Summary and Review    


  My Gosh, what could I say about this movie? well first to let it out of my lungs HOLY SH*T!!!

  Never heard of the director before but he did a great job of making something new, generic and relevant. The guy made something so unique and I have to say, I have way too much in my thoughts to cover this movie I might be writing for a month.

  Dr. Rose Cotter (Sosie Bacon) who works as a psychiatrist in a psychiatric ward witnesses a tragic death of a patient, only to learn that what really killed her patient is something malevolent and has now passed on to her! She must learn what this entity is and must stop it from taking her and others.

  I really enjoyed this film, I'm not a fan of the modern horror when it comes to killers, demons and slasher weapon welding monsters! But, movies like Smile have come as unique and something new and undone before. I think anyone reading this will say "wrong" but again not being a fan of horror makes me unknown to films like this!

  This movie was so extreme for what it is and though I covered my eyes through the other Jump scares, I opened my eyes to the real monster and it was worth it!

  The production of this movie was so well done, its shots are well done and it leaves you terrified whether you close your eyes or not! CGI was well done too.

  One thing I didn't like about this film was that in some parts it felt generic! Characters making stupid decisions, the whole falling for "look behind you" crap.

  Sosie Bacon did really well playing her character, obviously the talent came from her parents. But Sosie I think did well to her experience in horror and murderers when she played in 'Charlie Says' based on real life serial killer Charles Manson and 'Scream' TV series as a victim of the masked killer. 

  On the other side when it comes to me looking at it with a different perspective, it felt like a film with chaos and nonsense! It also had those genetic things all horror films have the stupidity of survival, the dumb people falling for tricks, the stupid "your on your own" crap.

  But on the ending note this film was great, definitely a film to make your month of October scary for you and your friends.

  On the advisory side: Don't watch this film if you or someone closest to you is suffering from depression and other mental illness' as this movie contains depictions and content of suicide and self harm.

  Also if you or a friend is suffering from depression and thoughts of suicide call 1-800-273-TALK (8255)

   The Batman (2022) Review   Plot and Plot Elements: Batman must face an unknown masked serial killer who's killing the corrupt and leaving cryptic puzzles for the Batman,  Batman must put the pieces and answers together whilst causing Bruce Wayne and Batman to discover horrible lies within his family.   What Drove Reeves to direct "The Batman"?    Reeves told New York Times " I wanted to fight against any sense that Batman would remain static." he continued with " I wanted the stakes of the story to challenge him in a way that shook him to his core. He has to change."   What Reeves is saying is that after a long wait and Nolan's "The Dark Knight Rises" being the last stand alone and making the 80 year old character abandoned to his stand alone film's for a "static" decade he wanted to bring Batman back to the screen.   Was Pattinson the fit: (Robert Pattinson) Wow I really have a lot to say about this man's performance

TENET (2020) Review

  A secret agent is sent on a mission that will prevent a possible World War III. After being given word of an extraordinary special uranium is found to be able to reverse time, "Protagonist" must travel backward in time to stop the people who have this new weapon and alter events that will end the world. Christopher Nolan directs another thrilling movie with amazing music, action and crazy/special affects. This movie was amazing to watch as it gave me the same viewing experience I got from "inception"(2010) with off the walls "stunning" visual affects and very cohesive music written by Ludwig Goransson, I loved the amount of action and stunts done, I especially loved they casted John David Washington we was very good at his role. Thing I loved about this movie was that it involved a lot of science and twists just like Inception. It was filled was stunning affects and I loved the music as it fit in with the action, this movie was hard to understand as it’s

And he’s all for another adventure with the loved headmaster and wizard Albus Dumbledore, but what’s Dumbledore’s secrets?    Yes that’s right I’m asking you yes you! I’m not a reader of Harry Potter but I can love the fan loved films. I’m definitely excited for this new adventure!   But my question is! What’s Dumbledore hiding?  I don’t know this man’s secrets that probably were never spoke of in J.K Rowlings original Harry Potter books, besides his future agenda for Harry against Voldemort Or that he had a childhood love interest with our last seen villain Grindelwald… wait what!!! Yes our heroic headmaster was in a relationship with a villain.    Last time we saw the man he was played in a fantastic way by Jude Law in Fantastic Beast: The Crimes of Grindelwald. This gave an intense ending!    But let’
