Big Hero 6 - 9/10
Fantastically entertaining. The only negative is the simplistic story and 0 depth characters.. but that's to be expected for an animated movie for young ages.
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

X-Men: Days of Future Past - 6,5/10
The movie made me a disappointed panda. It started off with the right foot, everything seemed to be perfect, until it started behaving like a deflating balloon (the same thing that will happen to Hugh Jackman as soon as he stops taking steroids xD).
The fairly solid acting, with an attempt to introduce some characterization, and the good share of gritty-ish sequences (for Marvel's standards, which are on par with Disney's) were not enough for me to make up for the lack of cohesion and sense of surprise.

cinderella (the 2015 one)
... i mean.. its no maleficent or anything, but i still quite enjoyed it for what it was... cinderella was sugary sweet, step mother was wonderfully vicious and cruel, step-sisters were air-headed and mean, and the prince was suitably charming... what more d'ya want?
oh, and who doesnt love HBC in whatever the hell shes doing? she was a great FGM
6.5/10

Mad Max 4 -
10/10
One of the best movies I've ever seen in the action / western genre. I'm ashamed I didn't see it in theatres and i'm going to redownload this thing in higher quality when higher quality HD rips come out. Everything about this movie was just really good. I loved how the movie wasn't very one-sided either and did some character building with those war boyz guys and showed their insane culture.
The entire movie felt like I was watching some insane live-action video game thing.

And that's where I disagree. The movie is filled with some great fucking characters.
Be it nose cover nipple ring man, or the million other different crazy fucks; This is what makes the film interesting to watch.

thats great costuming, not great character creation or development.
even max was pretty ho-hum and uninspired i felt.
no one is debating (i hope) how creative the film was visually.

If there's one thing the movie excelled at, it's organic world building. Even though most of it is a "blink and you'll miss it" it's so much better than 2 bros expositioning in the middle of the action to explain how something is totes cool (Ex: Captain America and Iron Man) 
1 and 2 are still amazing.

Everything made sense to me. The mutated lizard, the scarcity of resources, the green place turning into a toxic swamp, psychotic dictator with crazy rules. It fit the heightened world because it gelled with everything. Although that band thing with the jumpsuit guitarist was too ridiculous for me
Unless you want a totally grounded post apocalyptic movie which this is not. Watch The Road or The Rover for that.

There was no scarcity of resources other than water apparently (plenty of water too, actually, only its been hoarded by one guy). They had cars, trucks, guns, ammo, gas... as much as anyone wanted. The movie felt like it's been unfolding on another planet, it felt totally detached from previous Max movies and realistic Earth. The only thing missing were Alien and Predator fighting it out on the war rig.

i actually agree, he was probably the most memorable and understandable character in the film.. not even joking... he felt RIGHT... very reminiscent of armies with their drummers to both hype up the soldiers and instil fear in enemies, so to me, it was the ONE thing that actually really made sense, and was damn cool and a worthwhile addition to the film.

child 44
really enjoyed it. start was a little rocky, but overall i thought it was a very solid film - ALMOST every question i had, everything that bothered me or concerned me, i felt was suitably explained over time (the ending felt a little rushed and 'convenient'), and overall i felt the film was satisfying and interesting.
only thing i cant get my head around, is why bother with russian accents if you're going to straight up english the whole dialogue? Not only did tom hardy occasionally dip into dracula territory with his accent, but it just doesn't make sense to have the russian speech mannerisms that come from learning to speak english COMING from speaking russian when you're trying to use english as a convenient way to make the russian characters and their dialogue easily digestible..

dark places 6.5/10
nothing too crazy, worth a watch.
I wish it had been more of a thriller than drama.
The ending didn't make sense at all - which undermined the whole sense of the story.
Pretty intruiging nonetheless

Ant-Man ... 6/10 I guess? One of the better Marvel Movies (much better than averagers, boring man, captain hurderrica, bhor ...) . The best one til know supposedly being Guardians of the Galaxy I guess which I really enjoyed.

Ultraviolet: Unrated Extended Cut - 4? 5? 6? /10
The most ?!????!!?!?!??!? film I've ever seen.
One minute is good, the next is bad, the other is terrible, the next one is touching, ... The action ranges from terrible to good. The cinematography/visual style too ranges from VHS to Blu-ray.
I could keep going...
This is truly the most schizophrenic film I've ever seen and although at times I felt it was terrible by the end of it I found it had some oddly sweet moments...
I am unable to pick a score.. It's in the 4-6/10 range for sure.. but I just can't decide if the good outweigh the bad.
Dunno, thinking about it makes my head hurt What a bizarre movie 
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"
