The Meg (2018) Review


Hello guys and welcome back to Movie Talks with Tudor! Well, today I am talking about a movie about a shark, a guy that encountered this shark and does not want to get back into the game but of course he does come back and a team that tries to kill the shark. Sound familiar? Well, it should because this movie has the same elements that any other shark or monster/creature movie has, going back to the one that started it all, Jaws.

So, you can throw Jaws in here, a bit of Deep Blue Sea, some 47 Meters Down and The Shallows. There is nothing new with this movie, it's full of cliches, specific of this genre, it's predictable, most of the time, the humor is not working, the most part of the movie and some of it feels forced and unnatural, some of the situations that the characters find themselves into fall into ridicule. There is some drama but it's so over the top and pointless that you get feelings of cabin fever instead of real emotions. And some of the characters are so annoying that you would wish the shark would eat them. So, judging by that, the script sucks plus, another evidence pointing to that is the dialogue, which contains some of the worst lines I have ever heard in a movie.

Well, saying all those negatives, you would think that I hated this movie as I did with The Darkest Minds because the only good thing from that movie is, actually, the song from the trailer, Revolution by Ruelle. Getting off track here. Well, I did not hate this movie, despite what I said because I had fun. The action sequences are good, the interactions between the shark and the characters are the highlight of this movie, there is some good humor, here and there, it's not all bad and Jason Statham rocks man. He is one of the best things in this movie. And Cliff Curtis. Plus, the shark looks amazing. Not all the time terrifying but, when it needed to be, it's there. 

Overall, it's good summer dumb fun shark movie but if you are looking for something original, look elsewhere. If you wanna have fun, go to this one. Plus, the 3-D helps. 6/10

OK guys, this is my review for this one. Next up, Skyscraper. Until then, take care and keep on reviewing!

In The Mood For Love Movie Review

Imagine
In the Mood for Love(O iubire imposibilă-2000)-Regia:Kar Wai Wong Comentariu:Filmul “In the Mood for Love” regizat de către Kar Wai Wong este un film frumos şi mai ales poetic. Ȋn ceea ce priveşte acţiunea nu este foarte ofertant, dar compensează în domeniul stărilor şi emoţiilor pe care acest film vrea să le suprindă. Filmul prezintă o anumită lentoare şi repetitivitate a scenelor, de la mişcările personajelor la curgerea timpului. Este o dramă neaşteptată, plină de-o emoţie şi-o culoare deosebită, iar puterea filmului vine din tensiunea acumulată pe parcurs stingându-se în scorbura unui copac, unde bărbatul îşi lasă toate amintirile. Cele două personaje nu au măsura timpului iar iubirea lor îi menţine într-o stare atemporală, vraja neputând fi ruptă decât prin prefacere sau negare, aceste lucruri ducând la o despărţire totală. Ȋn concluzie filmul merită văzut dar e nevoie de-o răbdare şi-o sensibilitate enormă pentru a te adapta acelui ritm şi a trece dincolo de coaja lucrur

Remembering Carrie Fisher (1956 - 2016)

Imagine
Carrie Fisher Tribute Man, this year, 2016, continues to deliver us untimely deaths of celebrities and,  tuesday, we find out that Carrie Fisher has passed away. A very sad moment, especially for those who grow up with her and the Star Wars movies. Of course, her most memorable role was Princess Leia in the Star Wars saga but she was also a true activist, humanitarian and writer. This is just the worst and I can't believe she has left this world. It is a shocking news and I still can't believed it. R.I.P. Carrie Fisher, you will be missed.

Wind River (2017) Movie Review

Wind River (2017) Review Hello guys and welcome back to Movie Talks with Tudor! For today, I have prepared three new reviews for three movies, one was good and the other two not so much. So let's start with the good one and I mean this one, of course. If you have seen "Sicario" and "Hell or High Water" and you enjoy watching those movies you will certainly enjoy this one as well. And it is based on real events so it has that reality based element, which is going to make you appreciate this movie even more. It's smartly written, beautifully executed, with the environment playing a big part in inducing the viewer into the chilling atmosphere of the story. It's dramatic, filled with emotions, suspense and thrills and it will keep you invested from beginning to end. It has a fast pace and, although it has it slower moments, it does not get boring. On the contrary, it becomes more interesting. Love the cast, great cast and, of course, great performances
