Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Review

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Have you expected anything more about getting a sequel when it comes to Transformers? Well, as you can see the Last Knight was probably the last entry of the whole series but what about getting the whole series a reboot? Yes, you heard that right, looks like after the Bumble Bee movie, they have decided to create a reboot on Michael Bay’s Transformers movie series.

The first Transformers movie was released 2007, followed by Revenge of the Fallen on 2009, Dark of the Moon on 2011, then Age of Extinction and the last one will be the Last Knight, assuming they are trying to recreate the whole series since Bumble bee, with the post credit scene that was showed in Bumble Bee, all viewers knew there’s something new coming but we didn’t expect that it will become a reboot.

Little Mermaid (A Book, Cartoon and Film Comparison)

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

Look at this stuff, isn’t neat… Oh yeah, that song, we all know that. And this is one of the most famous Disney fairytales which has now been remade into a live action movie, meaning, there’s a real life girl playing as a Little Mermaid, Ariel. If you’re a 80s-90s baby, you’ll appreciate the fact that technology has its ways to make your favorite cartoons come to life, and as impossible as it was when you were a kid, now, you can just imagine yourself being that girl, but this time, seeing it as a real human not a cartoon character. We’ve watched, Mulan, Cinderella, Belle, Jasmine, and Aurora in live action films and this time, we’ve got ourselves the opportunity to witness Ariel coming into life.

For this who don’t know, Little Mermaid was written by Hans Christian Anderson in 1870 which became a cartoon story made by Disney in the late 80s. From then and there we got all the dish about Little Mermaid and being the only mermaid as a Disney princess, she is definitely became one of the favorites.

The book and the cartoon, however constructs a different story. The cartoon, was made for kids but the book was made for Fantasy seekers and not for fainted hearts. I believe I not need Andy versions on where I compare the two but, I’d be happy to include this before I even review the live action movie of the Little Mermaid. So let’s start.

For those who never read nor watch any of the Little Mermaid versions, please do so, at least one of those available so you will understand where I’m actually coming from. Before you click/scroll more, this will be my official disclaimer.

Black Knight: Some Time In The Future?

Some of the well-known Dystopian movies were mostly made by American production, to name a few, we have Divergent, Hunger Games, Maze Runner and these movies were actually adapted from Sci-fi Young Adult Books that were published more than 10 years ago. One of the most unique Dystopian movie that I have watched was also In Time, in which they have timers in their arms that signifies the life span they have, the more time you got, the more time you can live. It was starred by Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried. To add more, you have The Purge movies, 5th Wave, Death Cure and Planet of the Apes Movie series. These movies are depicting the possible future of there world when everything has been destroyed or the political background of each of every one of us has changed and the society has completely depend its ways to survive to a new system. These are works of art that represents the great mystery and wilderness.

I know when you say dystopian, some of you will think this is another useless action movie that shows how life will continue even after the apocalypse or the judgement day but this however, in reality, constructs the same pyramids of priority that the present society have, although they just dress it into after-the-end kind of situation, but I believe that whoever made these stories, plots, they know what they are talking about, and they have seen injustice with their own eyes.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie (A Moview)

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Okay, this is not a drill but yes, they released a live-cartoon action movie of Super Mario Bros this 2023 and it’s better than the video games. If you’re a fan of Nintendo Games, then you’ll know who Super Mario is, well, there’s so much to catch up on if you don’t know him. Most 90s kids know him, even the ones who have been breathing in 1985. It is the most popular retro game of all time, that even generations of today still enjoys the game and the game has improved so much that Nintendo released 4K games and they’re closer to real. This April 2023, they have released the movie which is all about Mario and Luigi and their journey to saving friends which based entirely with the game.

The movie started with Mario and Luigi getting their dream plumbing business into reality, however, fate is not always in favour of them; even their own family doesn’t want to believe in the things that they can do, hence, the low-self esteem of Mario. However, as we all know, Mario was made to do extraordinary things, just like int the game and so they tried to keep their business by trying a much bigger challenges like saving Brooklyn from flood. In the course of trying to look for the root cause of the flooding in the city of Brooklyn, they end up being sucked up by the pipe, just like in the games, leading them into two different worlds, Luigi fell into Bowser’s Kingdom, the evil turtle who kidnaps Princess Peach in the game while Mario ends up in the Mushroom world where Princess Peach and the toads live.

Beautiful Disaster: Is It Really? (A Moview)

Rating: 2 out of 5.

Well, all my readers know that aside from how good I am at comparison articles, I really love reading and that means, I have watched tons of movies that were adapted actual books, I know it is not new to this site but I should let the readers know. I take comparison from comics to reel or books to reel seriously and I mean seriously, like this new movie that was released, it is actually adapted from one of the greatest books that I have read of all time.

I’m talking about Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire, It’s a series and there are other books that will justify the sequel. This 2023, movie world has decided to make it a live action movie rather than sitting in the bookshelf of those who read it since it became famous in 2011. Directed by Roger Kumble, same director for the After series, he is actually making the famous romance books true to life.

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

Who doesn’t know John Wick? I guess every one knows John Wick as the hitman who took revenge for his dead puppy, yes, if you haven’t watched the first movie, it literally started with him trying to kill the man who killed his puppy during a supposedly break-in. He lost his wife, he wanted to retire from his job and live with his puppy but fate has its own course of events for him and so history begins itself.

This 2023, we are seeing the 4th installment of the John Wick movie series. The third one is when he became ex-communicated and everyone just tries to kill him. The third movie didn’t actually finished as him being reinstated and living as a free man, it did continue, hence, John Wick 4.

Shazam: The Fury of the Gods

Rating: 3 out of 5.

Okay, so from having a superpower and then having his family join him as superhero, Shazam is actually getting in this momentum of having a superhero life but as a teenager, Billie is not exactly on track. Because right now he is actually getting confused of what he really does, to top that, he wants his group to unite but how can he do that if everything he wanted is for his glory or what he only thinks was right.

This movie is directed by David F. Sandberg, starring Zachary Levi as Shazam and Asher Angel as Billy Batson, following up the first movie of the same title, Shazam, the second installment has been released last March 2023. Giving us an other dose of Shazamily and another story to cling on with the DC Universe.

Before we even go further, let me just keep a disclaimer like the usual. Click only when you’re ready for some spoilers.

There are so many movies that revolves around planes. Plane crash, disappearing planes, hi-jacked planes, haunted planes, planes carrying sick people, name it, the movie industry have it.

Well, this movie directed by Jean-François Richet, is actually giving us a different vibes. It’s a plane movie, yes, but not just your ordinary plane movie.

Rating: 3 out of 5.

And yet another murder mystery or is it really? Netflix has released a new movie starring Daniel Craig and it’s actually going to make a fool out of your minds, or is it really?

We obviously know that there are so many murder mystery movies that has been released throughout the years and some of them are actually adapted from books.
