Unknown Number: The High School Catfish

Rating: 3 out of 5.

Imagine it is in the 90s, no smartphones, no social media and nothing…just simple hi and hello to all the friends you have and by the time the news about each other comes out, the issue is already done and resolved. What makes 90s special is that there are telephone directories and operators where you will know who called you and who tried to even contact you on your pager because everything is recorded and you can ask the operator. But we all know that we are in the 2000s, where everything is accessible and you can literally use anything anonymously, and we cannot escape the technology but what will you do if this technology ruins you and your entire life, worst, your family? And you cannot even do a single thing but to wait for investigators to dig in deep to know where it started?

Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning (A Moview)

Rating: 3 out of 5.

Maybe this is the final entry in the Mission Impossible film series, MI: The Final Reckoning has set another standard when it comes to action movies. Well, in this era, if it’s not Tom Cruise, Jason Statham, or Keanu Reeves, we’ll have to think about it twice. The Final Reckoning was set at the time where Ethan (played by Tom Cruise) needed to choose who to save, the world, or his friends. He has to do the impossible to be able to retrieve the entity and kill it but along the way, he lost people that are important in his life and he met again some of those who became part of his journey. It was like a mini reunion for some of the actors he worked with during the previous film installments.

In this journey, Ethan had to work again with the US government to prevent the entity from launching all nuclear missiles available in the globe and possibly ruin the entire mankind. To all those who don’t know know, The Entity is a self aware AI that has its own mind and can actually penetrate in cybersecurity and predict what will happen in the future. This technology was the main point of the whole Mission Impossible movie franchise. Not knowing, Ethan was the one who made it possible for the Entity to exist. Every move that Ethan made in the previous movies, it had an effect with the Entity.

Captain America: Brave New World (A Moview)

Rating: 2 out of 5.

After the real Captain America retired, Sam Wilson took over as the new Captain America. Not as surprised than everyone else but ever since he was Falcon, he was the only one who gradually stick to its loyalty when it comes to saving the Earth’s humanity, even as an avengers and someone who had an epic entrance during the Endgame movie, I believe he is able to do more versatile than just making a everyone think he is there for saving. He was able to prove so many things behind, not just

Venom: The Last Dance

Rating: 2.5 out of 5.

This year, they released the new movie for Venom and it’s a mix of all the things you want in a classic monster movie but also the things you don’t want to be happening in a Spiderman movie. I know this is not actually the typical Spidey movie but this is somehow having connections with my dear Peter Parker and I think that it is very important that they do such sequels in connection to the current Spiderman movie or so we thought.

If you think about getting some reason to ditch one sequel of a marvel movie, this is probably one of them.

SMILE 2 Review (Bonus: Ending Explained)

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

We all know that if a movie has a sequel, it is either the first one is better or the second one surpasses the first and this goes over and over as long as the sequel continues. This year, after a two wait, Smile movie has finally released a sequel, Smile 2.

Despite of the years difference, Smile movie was actually cynical when it comes to getting the sinister. It was really sinister-y but a little confusing but predictable, I guess that’s what we can put that phase in the first movie. The movie was supposed to feel like a mystery and thrilling at the same time, well. it was quite a number of feelings you get because it was a psychological thriller.

Transformers One Review: Somebody Has To…

Rating: 4 out of 5.

“A line between a friend and enemy is not as clear as I once believed, once it’s crossed, there’s no going back because transformations are permanent”- Orion Pax, Optimus Prime.

In the world where everything is just too realistic and everything has forgotten physical toys and just play digital toys instead, some Gen-z don’t even know that Transformers, Ninja Turtles, Marvels and DC Superheroes were actually toys before they even made it to the big screens. But seeing them in the reels are actually a sign of how technology has progressed throughout the years. We have seen so many Transformers movies through out the special years of robots but we actually never saw a prequel until last year and now, they are actually giving us the taste of a real prequel.

Deadpool & Wolverine: Review

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

“You got a whole world to get back to, I have nothing.” Wolverine, 2024

Multiverse is multiverse-ing. Deadpool is Deadpool since the last movie in 2018, we didn’t really get any sequel. But this time, we don’t only get a sequel, but also a new MCU entry and a possibility of having the X-Men back. Yes, you read it right. This new Deadpool movie is actually a redirecting of the MCU. Not every one knows Deadpool is not actually part of the MCU at first but since Disney took over, they are now trying to fix the timeline by trying to tie up all the Marvel stories. This is where the whole confusion starts because aside form having so many things happening in MCU, there’s just too much topics to talk about. This new Deadpool movie was definitely called for. Okay, we just need to do a recap and analyze this new movie and how it’s gonna affect the whole MCU.

Back To Basics…

Okay, not all of my avid moview readers know that I am also into reading books. Well, I have a long break from reading books…more like a 10-year-gap kind of break. I got busy with life, that’s how it is. although there are also times that I was able to read books through audiobooks, so it’s not actually a good to nothing break. I still had a chance to read some new books through listening to their audiobook versions. But this 2024, I am trying to convince myself that I really need to go back to reading because why not? Especially now that people are finally returning to the reading paperback and hard bounds.
