Klute
(1971)

A good cast with Talent and a movie that is pretty decent.
My Grandma, Grandpa, and my uncle just finished watching this film "Klute" last night after dinner. The movie was a little confusing in the beginning, but I started understanding it pretty quickly, the film has some very good acting with actors that we recognized from other films like Donald Sutherland (Invasion of the Body Snatchers), Roy Schneider (Jaws) and others. This movie definitely dragged out and dragged out a lot of parts that were unnecessary. The acting was well done for the Early 70s and this film was nominated and won for Best Leading Actress! Overall, pretty decent film for it's time. 7/10.

Little Shop of Horrors
(1986)

Little Shop, Little Shop Of Horrors!!!!!
Little Shop of Horrors is my fiancés favourite film. One she's always recommended me to watch and the first time I watched it, I thought it was okay. Now after a second viewing, I Loved It! The Music is out of this world good! The storyline is perfect, and the cast is too good to pass on. This is something that deserved more recognition, especially the alternate ending. This film is not just a Movie Musical, it is an Experience that people need to experience. Especially if it's being viewed on a good sound system and big screen, perfect viewing for a film like this. Very well done, masterworks, the art of the film truly captures its passion. A movie everyone needs to see. Overall, 9/10, Fantastic! LITTLE SHOP, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS!!!

Eight Crazy Nights
(2002)

Adam Sandler's Best Animated Christmas Film!
I have always been an Adam Sandler fan, especially when my friends would watch comedies all the time. I remember first watching this film at our friends place. We spent so many hours in their and watched so many movies. We use to watch this film a lot and watching it with everyone was hilarious we sat in the room and watched this film and launched throughout the entire film. Ever since I have kept this film close to me as it's a reminder of many good times with friends, and it's one of my favourite Christmas films. The music is great, the voice acting is really good, the animation is amazing, and the movies storyline is something that always stood by me. I will always watch this film during the holidays and hope someone else will enjoy this film as much as I have. Overall, 9/10. Great performances, and singing.

Kimitachi wa dô ikiru ka
(2023)

Miyazaki"s Magnus Opus is a Masterpiece! Never disappoints!
Miyazaki proves once again he is truly a spectacular artist with a vision that brings out the pure magic of Anime, Cinematography, Hand Drawn Animes, Powerful Music by Joe Hisaishi, (Has Worked on many projects with Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli), and Storytelling. Scenery that will leave you speechless. Saw this last night with my fiancé and we both really enjoyed it a lot. Glad to finally see a Studio Ghibli Film in Theatres, really an amazing experience to see it on the big screen! The music, the picture, sound, everything. I would highly recommend this film for everyone to watch. It's a film that really captures you right away (At least it's did with me), we are not truly sure if this is Miyazaki's last film or not. He has announced his retirement 3 times before, this is his 4th time announcing retirement. We will see if he is really done but if he is done, then this film was a very well done film with one last message Miyazaki wanted to send out before his Retirement. Overall, 10/10. Very well done Masterpiece to Miyazaki's Magnum Opus. Thank you for everything! You have changed the world of anime and put so much heart and soul and will enjoy your films for many many many years to come.

Freddy vs. Jason
(2003)

20 Years later, still an epic dual between Evil and Evil.
I remember when I was a kid of 10 years old and wanted to watch Freddy vs Jason badly since I was a fan of the films for Freddy and Jason. I remember when I first saw this film and I watched it with friends and still to this day this film is awesome and the soundtrack alone is a badass Metal Soundtrack featuring Slipknot, ill Nino, Devildriver, Killswitch Engage, Sepultura and more! After seeing the film I listened to the soundtrack non stop listening to those heavy riffs as a kid on my MP3 player/IPod. Man those were the days! Overall, the heavy pounding soundtrack, the fight between two horror film legends will make for an epic film. Some cheesy moments but a great film, will always highly recommend to others! 8/10.

The Omen
(1976)

A well done Masterpiece for one of the scariest movies of all time!
It's all for you Damien! It's all for you! I remember little bits and pieces of this film from when I was younger. Just watched it for the first time since I was little and what a film to watch! This film from front to back was entertaining. I can understand that some may find it boring but I was entertained and the buildup to that Climatic ending was great! This is a film that will stay in my favourite Horror Films of all time! The soundtrack was well made and genius for the film and the moments it was intense and made the film creepier and scarier atmosphere. The Hellhounds were epic and the dogs played the roles well. The child actor for Damien was easily one of the greatest performances done by a child in movie History. The acting was very convincing. The story was smooth and the buildup was great! The decaptitation scene was shocking and I did not expect that one coming. This is how horror movies should be made, A masterpiece in Horror Film. A must watch for all horror fans! Overall, 10/10. Wonderful film!

Rockman X
(1993)

A Masterpiece on the Super Nintendo.
Mega Man X was a Game that I fell in love with right away and I remember renting it from blockbuster then buying it at an EB Games many years ago and played this non stop. Mega Man 2 was the first game I was Introduced to Mega Man, and I've been loving Mega Man Ever since. This game was next level and I loved every single bit of it. As hard as it was, I enjoyed the challenges. This game is a masterpiece and a big favourite from my childhood that I put many many hours into. I play this from time to time and when I play it I put time into it and pure focus. One of the Best Mega Man Games of all time. 10000000000/10. Perfect.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame
(1923)

A Classic that I will never forget! The 100th Anniversary Review!
I remember when my Grandpa Gave me this movie on DVD, and I've watched this movie quite a lot as this movie is a really great film and one of my favourite films in the Silent-Film Era. I was really happy I got this and was a bit surprised how much I loved it considering I was born in the Early 90s, and now in 2023 As the Film reaches its 100th Birthday. I would like to wish this film a Happy 100 Years in Cinema and hope future generations will see this film and see the wonders that come from it around the time of when movies were still in the new stages. I find it crazy that this masterpiece is 100 years old. This movie is a Great Film, with Visuals that are well done for its time, the acting was well perceived with this film being a silent film with an older form of Subtitles since there was no Vocal sound but just music. I still watch this movie from time to time as I do still watching this 100 Year-Old Masterpiece. I am thankful to have the wonderful people in my life including my Grandfather who has introduced me to the Wonderful World of Cinema with his Ginormous Movie Collection. He is still around today and Talk of film and Tv shows is a frequent thing we do still. Happy 100th to The Hunchback of Notre Dame and RIP to all the actors who were in this film. Overall, a Solid 10/10.

The Mandalorian: Chapter 19: The Convert
(2023)
Episode 3, Season 3

Dr. Pershing is back!
3 episodes in and I'm still really liking this season and we got the return of Dr. Pershing with nearly an entire episode dedicated to him. Was interesting to say the least but I still liked it! It was quite a surprising ending that has me asking some questions. The acting was good in this, the Mandalorians really have such cool armour especially Bo-Karan's armour. It amazes me how wel done the visual effects are, the scenery is always beautiful and realistic in Star Wars and I love it everytime I watch Star Wars. I look forward to more episodes and watching yet another Mandalorian Episode! Overall, I give the episode an 8/10.

The Mandalorian: Chapter 18: The Mines of Mandalore
(2023)
Episode 2, Season 3

The Return of Mandalore
Wow, this episode was a Gem! I really loved seeing Mandalore in Live action and it was everything I could hope for in an episode. This episode was really strong with its plot and build up for a special surprise. This episode caught my grasp of heavy interest and it was satisfying. Seeing Din Djarin and Grogu on Mandalore was something that we have all been wanting. The episode has some great action and as usual exceeds expectations, seeing Bo-Katan return to Mandalore was also something we knew would happen eventually and I am glad that I got to witness her return to Mandalore since Rebels. The Ending was a Greag surprise and was amazing. You need to watch this! Overall, great episode with some surprises... 9/10.

The Mandalorian: Chapter 17: The Apostate
(2023)
Episode 1, Season 3

A Great first Episode back to such a phenomenal series.
I am glad that The Mandalorian is back on Television and it deserves the praise it has been getting for being one of Star Wars best Modern Tv Shows. It is great to see Din Djarin and Grogu back together on screen again, and it's a joy to see them together adventuring the galaxy. This first episode was a good start to the season, I felt it went to a great start to the season and introducing new Characters and Familiar ones, this is one thing I love about Star Wars is the universe and how it just amazes me everytime since I was a kid. Still would love to live In a Star Wars Universe, definitely a dream I had when I was a kid! The build up for the Return of Mandalore I feel is going to be epic and I hope Mandalore does not get destroyed once again. I don't think this would be happening. Overall, a great episode and a great start to Season 3 of The Mandalorian. 8/10. Strong episode, leaves me wanting more.

The Last of Us: Left Behind
(2023)
Episode 7, Season 1

Ignorance is bliss
I don't care what anyone says. I really enjoyed this episode. Episode 7 was phenomenal. With each episode surprises me better than the last. Except Episode 5 was by far the best episode so far. This one really did a job well done. Just like the DLC "Left Behind" it was well told, and both actors did a phenomenal job with their characters including Bella Ramsey. This show has went beyond my expectations and still impressed me. I look forward to the last two episodes this season and look forward to more phenomenal Acting. This episode is a fantastic episode that shines light on the reality of the new world and how cruel it can be. There really are some beautiful moments in this episode. Overall 10/10. Acting was outstanding. I look forward to the last two episodes!

The Last of Us: Endure and Survive
(2023)
Episode 5, Season 1

WOW! What a Roller Coaster Ride that was for Episode 5. Phenomenal.
Alright, Now I am going to say it. This Episode "So Far" is the Best Episode by far. Its amazing, the storytelling was done very well and we were introduced with 2 unforgettable characters from the video game "Henry and Sam". This episode was filled with a dark tone and boy oh boy was it awesome! The final 15 Minutes of the episode is everything you could have ever dreamed of for a perfect video game adapion show. HBO Showed us what they could do and they perfected it. The amount of intensity this episode had was chaotic, and the episode was beyond chaotic. It was Brutal, It was Gruesome, It is Everything a True "The Last Of US" fan could have ever asked for. To the showrunners, well done so far, you are doing absolutely a phenomenal job and I look forward for the last 4 episodes. Overall, A solid 11/10 if there was an option to it. This Episode was nothing short of Outstanding. Also, The Bloater Reveal was perfection!

The Last of Us: Please Hold to My Hand
(2023)
Episode 4, Season 1

Episode 4 and It still does not Dissapoint me at all. WOW!
Episode 4 is another fantastic Episode. 4 episodes in and I am just simply loving this like no tomorrow. After 4 episodes I am impressed that this show is outdoing itself so far even my past episodes reviews I have said almost each time one episode outdoes the other. With this episode was pretty intense and awesome. The acting once again is just superb and i continue to root for this show and its reviews so far. If you have not checked out this series, I will personally tell you that after 4 episodes I am Hooked beyond Hooked. This TV Show could potentially be the Best TV Series that I have seen Ever and I recommend that everyone needs to experience this show. Overall, Phenomenal and we get introduced by two old companions from the video game, that I look forward to seeing more of in the next episode. A Solid 10/10. Still blowing my mind!

The Last of Us: Long, Long Time
(2023)
Episode 3, Season 1

Into Episode 3 and we got a Phenomenal Story here that outdid itself again.
I don't quite understand the Controversy. I thought this episode was a fantastic love story while living in a deadly world. It is a great addition since we never got to see How Bill and Frank lived, and what happened. The acting in this episode was superb and Both Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett Deserve an Oscar for this Episodes Beautiful Performance. This episode was Pure and Beautiful. My Fiancé and I watched this together, we laughed, we cried. And we balled our eyes out. This episode was nothing short but amazing. I would give this episode a chance despite the reviews, this episode really touches the heart and is a beautiful Adaption. An episode that trully touched my heart and I loved it. Overall, I would rate this Episode a Solid 10/10. Phenomenal. The Series so far is Living up to its Name. I look forward for the next episode!

The Last of Us: Infected
(2023)
Episode 2, Season 1

2nd Episode in and it's still Phenomenal!
Damn! What an episode including all three characters who had fantastic chemistry together, Tess is definitely a Phenomenal Character that I feel has captured my heart just as she did in the game and the actor was phenomenal as Tess! Pedro Pascal is killing it as Joel and so is Bella Ramsey. The episodes overall tone is just like when I would play the Video game The Last of Us. If feels like I am playing it all over again with new twists and little changes here and there. The changes made so far are all great decisions and we're well written. This episode just as the first one outdone itself for me. Overall, a solid 10/10! A Fantastic Episode.

The Last of Us: When You're Lost in the Darkness
(2023)
Episode 1, Season 1

A Dream Finally Come True!
I have been a huge fan of this game since it came out and I cannot believe we now finally have a show and I was a little nervous about this one to be honest and honestly from seeing this first episode, my mind has changed this was a perfect episode, I got the Same Feeling when I played the game, the atmosphere is so familiar and it's just absolutely Breathtaking. From seeing how night the reviews are for the first episode I agreed with all the High reviews. I am proud to see a master piece of an episode from my top 3 favourite video games of all time. Do not miss out on this show, it is off to a fantastic start! I look forward to see how the rest of the episodes are like and how this story will end, this is perfect. Watch It! Overall, if there was an option for it...Infinite.

Hocus Pocus
(1993)

A Halloween Disney Classic!
I got to say, I watched this movie from when I was a little toddler up till now. This movie is still a great Halloween movie. It's cheesy, it's entertaining and it's quite hilarious. It is tradition every year during Halloween that we watch movies during Halloween month and this is definitely of our first few to watch! Hocus Pocus 2 comes out September 30th, 2022. I am quite excited to see how that will do 29 years after the 1993 Hocus Pocus. This is a great film and if you have not seen it. I would highly recommend watching it with the family, you are in for a treat. Overall, 8/10! Funny, Cheesy, and a Great time.

Halo 3
(2007)

A masterpiece from the Halo Series!
Halo 3 when it first came out and my dad got my brother and I am Xbox 360 with a lot of games. One of them being Halo 3, friends talked about it at school, beating the game, and talking about the hype, I was soooo excited that when it was my turn to play I played halo 3 and it caught my attention very fast and I was hooked into it, I have never played anything like it. Suddenly I was playing for hours and I was very hooked into the game, played it the next day to complete it and I did complete the game and I was shocked at what I had just played and couldn't believe I actually beat the game and it was phenomenal. This game holds a special place in my heart and I will always cherish it forever! If you have not played this, I would highly recommend doing so, this game will change your life! Overall, 10/10 A Gaming Masterpiece and a masterpiece soundtrack!

Doom
(2016)

Badass from Beginning till the end!
Wow, playing the original doom when I was a kid was badass enough, now a new doom game with better graphics, holy hell of demons and absolutely non stop action left me loving this game even more. The soundtrack is the best part of this Game! Brutal riffs, epic sounds that make the games overall experience even better! Mick Gordon did a phenomenal job at making the best Video Game soundtrack of the Year! If you have not played this badass game, it's time for you to become Doom Guy and Rip and Tear until it is done! Overall 11/10. I would rate this 11 over 10 anyway! This game is a masterpiece!

Lightyear
(2022)

A decent Spin off of Toy Story.
In Lightyesr we get to see the movie Andy saw that influenced him to get a Buzz Lightyear toy in 1995 which begins the Toy Story franchise. This was actually pretty decent. I would have preferred Tim Allen as Buzz, but I got to say Chris Evans did a pretty good job as the role of Buzz Lightyear. The action was good, the storyline and plot were pretty decent. I was quite impressed with this movie. It's not Toy Story but it is its own thing based on the real Buzz Lightyear. Overall, 7/10. Good movie!

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
(2022)

Sam raimi did it again!
Wow, this movie blew my mind.... I was very happy to see that Sam Raimi was going to direct this and honestly I knew good things were going to come out of this. I did expect a little more from the movie, more cameos more epicness. Other than that the movie blew my expectations out of the water! I like the little nod to Evil Dead as that's one of my favourite horror franchises to exist in cinema history. Well done to everyone on this movie and all the surprises it holds.

Zeruda no densetsu: Toki no okarina
(1998)

A masterpiece, The best video game of all time!
The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, wow. I remember when this came out in 1998, I Remember putting in that beautiful cartridge for the first tim and that title menu that would appear with Link riding on his horse across hyrule with beautiful pieano music that perfectly fits for getting ready to experience a true gem of a video game. I remember when I enterened in my name and went into the game to play, it was mesmerizing, including for a N64 title for its time. Kokiri Forest was amazing to me, the level of detail in the game was phenomenal and I could not get enough. Link even had a fairy as his companion, he had a sword and shield and other super awesome weapons and accessories throughout the game. The Child dungeon levels and the adult temple level details were amazing and well done, the soundtrack for the entire game is a masterpiece, there is nothing I hate about this game. Except I have a hard time with that damn Water Temple. I love it but it is hard. Overall, 1000000000000000000/10. The Best Video Game of All Time! The best Legend Of Zelda game in the Series along with Majoras Mask as my 2nd favourite. If you have not played this game, you are missing out on the best gaming experience ever!

Jurassic Park
(1993)

A film that made my love for dinosaurs soar even higher! A Masterpiece in Fiilm History!
This film came out when I was a kid and I remember watching it on vhs and I watched it over and over again, must be Hundreds of times and I cannot get bored with this film. Its one of my favourite Dinosaur movies of all time including one of the best Dinosaur Films. This film everytime brings pure nostalgia to me after watching it so many times over my entire life span and I still cant get enough of watching it, I love it too much. It is also exciting that the new Jurassic World: Dominion will now have the original cast come back to their original roles and that to me is really exciting and I cannot wait for that to come out and to see their faces again in the New Jurassic World movie coming out this summer. I will show this film to my kids and I hope this film contiues to be watched and Loved for many many years to come. Overall, 11/10. A Wonderful film with a phenomenal soundtrack!

Turning Red
(2022)

Disney did pretty alright with this one!
I liked the fact that this movie took place in Downtown Toronto. Nice to see the city of Toronto, especially in a Disney Film. Its looked beautiful in the film and I loved that. I did find some parts of the movie super cheesy and I would not say its disneys Best film of the year, although I would say it is a pretty well done film. Well done Disney, I did enjoy this film! Definitely had some moments that were cheesy and cringey. Overall, 7/10. Good film based in Toronto.

See all reviews
