M3GAN (2022)
Just a needed shoutout, really.
The movie is pretty solid and enjoyable. I won't waste time pointing out the obvious, which many reviewers have accurately surmised, already.
Rather, I will simply agree with the masses that it was better than just good/definitely above the average.....and rather, give a shout out that I feel needs be "shouted out'.
I couldn't help but to think of the performance of Paula Sheppard in "Alice Sweet Alice" and how much the 'psychological vibe' of the design/character M3GAN resonated with the character of Alice.
"Say no more" I will :)
It's definitely a worthwhile watch and the character proves that 'Alice' lives on......
Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017)
The only way this changes is if you stop supporting the Star Wars franchise.
If you have been a Star Wars fan since the beginning, chances are: You'll hate The Last Jedi. I'll simply say that it destroys Luke's character. There are other beefs that other reviewers have pointed out, but it is what Rian chose to do with Luke that made me dislike it so much. I don't believe that they tested a full audience with enough people born 1960 to 1980. I belong to that group, btw. My guess is, like me, almost all of them would have said, "Sorry, but you'll have to rethink a few things and especially Luke." Like the title says...this only changes when people stop supporting the franchise and send Disney a pain in the wallet.
Jersey Shore Shark Attack (2012)
"Yo, you can't put that in a coffin. It's gonna look ridiculous!"
Wow! All I can say is "ouch". The joke is clearly ON Jersey Shore.
For those who are unaware, there is a show that has been on TV for several seasons now, called "Jersey Shore". It is 'reality' - if you can really call it that. It's focus is on several people from the New Jersey area (primarily Italian Americans) and as most exploitation type shows go, it stereotypes these people.
That said. Watching this movie without understanding that it is spoofing the TV show could result in you going outside and looking at the setting sun and asking questions like, "Was that really Paul Sorvino? Was he blackmailed into doing this? Does Joey Fatone really have a fan club? Is my food choice for tonight safe after seeing this?"
On the other hand, if you get that it is a spoof - you might really enjoy it. It's gonna be a little painful either way, but let me assure you...there are a few funny moments...but mostly moments leaving you asking how production money was put together.
