Hitman: Agent 47 (2015) - Movie Review

So we have yet another movie based on the popular video game franchise 'Hitman'. This could have been called anything and it wouldn't have mattered as it's nothing like the game. Instead of sneaking or trying to take out enemies quietly, Agent 47 here just goes in guns blazing like Rambo.

The acting was bad. The actor who played Agent 47 was serviceable at best in some scenes while being bad in most of the others. The girl was lame and Spock (Zachary Quinto) followed that suite. The story was meh. Also, movie named 'Hitman Agent 47' focused all of its time on a girl rather than the actual agent.

The action, terrible. The fight scenes were horribly choreographed and employed extremely rapid zoom cuts, which was annoying as shit. And the car scenes were filled with really fake looking CGI. Not to mention that the time between action scenes was just in your face exposition.

The only stuff that I would say I liked was very VERY few bits where Agent 47 felt like a human, like he would make a quirk remark or something.

UGHHH what a disaster. The previous one was better than this.

The Crown (2016) - TV Series Review (Season 1)

"We’re all dying. That’s what defines the condition of living ." The Crown is a series about Queen Elizabeth II and her early years as the Queen. Now personally, I don't really have that much interest in the subject matter and wouldn't go actively look for media showcasing it, but after hearing so many great things about it, I decided to give it a watch. To my surprise, I was hooked from the start. The series is so well made, the execution of everything is so exemplary, and its pacing is remarkably well balanced (for a series like this), that I couldn't help but have a wonderful time with it. I was intrigued by the inner workings of the royal household, and how the crown weighs on the bearer and the people surrounding them. The casting was damn good. Many of the actors do look similar to the personalities they are portraying in that time, and the acting itself was marvelous. Clair Foy is so lovely and plays as the queen with great beauty.

Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015) - Movie Review

"Everyone creates the thing they fear. Men of peace create engines of war. Avengers create invaders. Parents create children, that will supplant them." It's the kind of movie that I had great time with, even though I will agree to it having tons of flaws. Lets start with the story, it was mostly a mess. Throughout the movie, it felt like so much stuff have been crammed into a runtime obviously not enough for it. Pacing was a hit and a miss. There were some stuff that was really rushed while other sequences dragged on. Ultron creation and character development in particular was rushed like hell, something that would have benefited greatly from getting more screen time. Also, whole thing between Bruce and Natasha felt forced and out of place. Their scenes really dragged on. It would have been better if they went with Natasha and Steve instead as they had great chemistry in Winter Soldier. It just felt like the whole movie needed more time to be polished out, smooth out

The Mummy (2017) - Movie Review

You know, I see people saying they're sick and/or tired of the whole shared universe style that has been the craze for the past almost decade or so. But I, personally, still enjoy it. Thing is, there is a correct way of doing it, and then there is a shitty way of doing. I don't know why Universal thought the shitty way was the path to be on. The Mummy should have been a movie about, well, THE MUMMY. But instead, it is an amalgamation of several poorly executed plot threads in an attempt to jump-start the new 'Dark Universe', with one of them being related to The Mummy. And it all comes together to create an incoherent messy movie. There are so many things going on with multiple changing rules that you just don't give a shit. Tom Cruise is the lead, and I will say that even in a movie like this, he still brings his charm and charisma to give somewhat of an enjoyable performance. His buddy in the movie made for some funzies as well. But even th
