Annie (2014)
4/10
The story of the movie is repetitive and average downwards
22 May 2024
How much do you know about the content and story of the movie Annie? Annie was written by Aline Brosh McKenna and Will Gluck.

In the synopsis published either by the media team of the work or by other media about the story of Annie, we read: "Annie is a happy orphan who decides to try to reach the streets of New York. He was left alone by his family when he was a child and they promised him that they would return one day. Now life with his stepmother Mrs. Hannigan is very difficult, but everything is about to change..."

Annie movie is similar to different works in terms of structure (form), content and production environment. According to various indicators, it can be said that the related works of Annie are: Annie, Cinderella, Princess Diary, Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day and The Parent Trap.

Ridiculous and pointless
22 May 2024
From the cover of the movie Anyone but You to its title, everything is familiar. In the first experience with the movie plot, without seeing Anyone but You, you realize that you are not going to watch a good work. I think the general purpose of making such films is not to express creativity and point to a topic; Only, the income that this movie is going to earn, is important! Such films turn the producers and even the actors into a useless advertising tool.

A weak romance between two stupid characters, in an interoceanic paradise (Australia), is the only constructive story idea. The script is so trite that it's not even worth reviewing! Anyone but You is a story without ups and downs, without character changes and without an exciting path, between a girl and a boy who spent only one night together. This movie is almost never fun! It seems that the writers wrote the story of a trivial love without any suspense or parting in one afternoon when they were bored.

Argylle (2024)
4/10
It's a pity for these actors who got bored in this movie
21 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The movie has a good start and it can be the promise of the work that we experienced in the first part of the Kingsman movie. But everything changes at once and the further the movie goes, the more it looks like the next part of Kingsman. The big problem of the movie starts from the place where it cannot give a good shape to the story and from the beginning we have problems with the story process of the movie. It is true that we cannot expect a deep story in such a film, but the most important story twists of the film are clear from the beginning.

Argylle is more like a weaker clone of Kingsman with much less violence Although the film tries hard to present a different effect, in practice it is a Kingsman film with a different skin that wants to be different, but fails. In fact, every moment we feel that the film is slowly reaching a dead end, Matthew Vaughan decides to save his film with a story twist. This was done well in the first Kingsman movie and the result was quite positive, but in Argyle it was completely overdone.

Bharat (2019)
6/10
Interesting and emotional movie story
19 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Ali Abbas Zafar's new Bharat is a remake of a Korean film called "Dedication to my father" that was brought to India and Salman Khan plays the lead role. We first meet the main character of the film in 1947 when he is a child and decides to dedicate his whole life to the promise he made to his father. As the eldest brother of the family, he considers it his duty to take care of his brothers and sisters and his mother and to have their feelings. From 1947 to 2010, the film follows the story of this brave and selfless hero and shows his ups and downs life to the viewers.

Bharat tries different jobs and falls in love with a girl named Kamud who is brave enough to go out of her way to win Bharat's attention. One of the best points of "Bharat" is Katrina Kaif's spectacular performance in the role of Kamud, who portrayed him at the height of his bravery and arrogance, and at the same time managed to make him a lovable and innocent character. Her harmony with Salman Khan looks very natural and the viewer can accept them as a couple. The makeup artists of the film have been able to show his aging in a natural way with his skillful make-up, and he himself has played these changes at the peak of elegance, as if the older he gets, the better his acting becomes.

Blue Beetle (2023)
4/10
The story of the movie is completely repetitive
17 May 2024
Blue Beetle attempts to introduce the DC Universe's first Latino superhero, but fails to deliver a repetitive story.

A1-MCI After the success of superhero movies over the past decades, filmmakers have decided to invest in new and lesser-known superheroes to not only tap into a new source for adaptations, but to expand the scope of using superheroes of the opposite sex, color, and race. Give Now the movie Blue Beetle is supposed to be the first movie of the DC universe which is produced with the focus of the Latino superhero. The story of this movie focuses on the character of Jimmy Reyes, who is actually the third Blue Beetle of the DC comic world.

Bushwick (2017)
2/10
Boring
15 May 2024
An intensely physical and adrenaline-pumping experience - with poignant and vivid images of human connection, pain and fear - this thriller about a full-scale invasion is terrifyingly timely. A picture like The Rope, Russian Ark, Silent House, Birdman and Victoria, in what appears to be one continuous, uninterrupted take (although the "hidden" cuts are easily discernible), Bushwick takes viewers on an experience of The street level sinks. Running alongside the characters, it's impossible to know what's around every corner, or what could jump out the door at any moment. The camera work in Bushwick is surprisingly clear and intuitive, showing a human's point of view rather than a shaky camera. It must have involved a significant level of choreography and timing. This also applies to stars Snow and Batista, who put on athletic performances under a lot of pressure. By eliminating bad foreign people or greedy corporations, this movie is perfectly relevant to our current times. Quite simply, it's about the deep and seemingly unbridgeable divide between America's "red" and "blue" ideologies. However, the heroes are completely in favor of compassion and common sense.

Cobweb (2023)
5/10
A repetitive movie like all horror movies
15 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
After Peter meets his sister Sarah, the story changes completely. According to the words of the monster, Peter agrees to kill his parents and pours mouse death into their soup. It is hard for me, the audience, to believe that an eight-year-old child is ready to kill!

Now, Samuel Bodin (the director of this work) tries not to trap the child morally. He adds to his story a lovely teacher who seems to be very sensitive to Peter's life and sometimes acts as a detective and asks Peter's father (Anthony Starr) why his arm is injured.

This young director seems to have directed several horror mini-series, but I think that friends' idea of being a director is to be able to set a mise-en-scène and record a beautiful shot! Now it is interesting that one of the internal critics wrote about this director that he knows very well how to create suspense in his film! Suspension? This movie had no suspense at all. The great Hitchcock says about suspense: the audience must be aware of the possibility of a terrible event that the actor does not know about. The movie Cobweb only has excitement, which also owes it to the technique, which has been used in horror cinema for years.

Let's skip and reach the end of the movie. Peter's mother is killed and the monster emerges. He then slaughters Peter's bully cousin and friends who came for revenge. The teacher then convinces Peter that he must defeat the monster, then Peter grabs the monster's hair and throws it into the basement! Does that mean the girl was strong enough to kill those boys in that brutal way, but she couldn't defend herself against Peter?

Cobweb movie review Exciting but illogical - Gymfa In the end, it can be said that the movie Cobweb is an irrational but exciting work, and the excitement itself is just a few clichéd scenes. Cobweb has practically nothing new to add and perhaps the only positive point is the good performance of Anthony Starr. So if you are thinking of watching this movie, let me tell you something. This movie is divided into two parts. The first part is a mysterious and psychological work with acceptable excitement, but the second part is completely nonsense and illogical. It seems that the director is tired of the good progress of the story in the middle of the movie.

Cold Prey III (2010)
2/10
Boring 😴
14 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The story of the third part actually takes place before the first two parts, and its story is about a group of young people who go to this mysterious and old hotel to hunt for us, and hunt this pickaxe killer again and who helps him. Are doing...... Overview The story of the movie is far more elaborate and complicated and it has flashbacks to the history of the family that lived in this hotel and why this hotel came to be known, but again, it is reminiscent of movies like Friday the 13th.

I hope that the next episodes will not be made Because it is really boring and ridiculous The viewer gets bored from repeating such stories.

Cold Prey 2 (2008)
6/10
It was better than the previous episode
13 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
After the adventures of the previous series, one of these young people (a girl named Jannicke), who survived in the previous episode, is admitted to the hospital and realizes that the doctors are rescuing and reviving the murderer who was thrown in the valley. Jannicke's efforts to prevent this work are unsuccessful and the killer comes back to life twice and starts killing in the hospital, but can Jannicke destroy the killer?

Overview The second part was much weaker, especially the ending was awful, six people had worked on the story...you can imagine that a person who has tried several policemen can't handle it, a girl goes after him and chases him, where is he in an abandoned hotel.. ........ But again, this movie is not bad in this sample of movies, but it is not a mouth-watering dish either.

It was an interesting documentary
13 May 2024
This film has been praised for its visual appeal, warmth, intimacy, and maintaining the power of impact and artistic creativity. It is definitely questionable how a film achieves such scores. There are many answers. These answers are wide ranging from the choice of the subject and the method of its development to the point of view of the filmmaker. What is particularly striking about this film is its subject matter, which is both important and emotional enough. But another point is its narration. The method of narration is involved in the impact of the topic. Maybe the interesting subjects that are completely lost with inappropriate treatment, scattered and heterogeneous narrative with the subject or the filmmaker's point of view. But choosing a suitable narrative method can make even an average subject a strong and attractive show. There have been many discussions about Aristotle's literary theory, so I don't consider them necessary in this summary. But pointing out the importance of catharsis 1 is not without grace; Because it is not unrelated to the narration style of "Born in brothels".

Sideways (2004)
8/10
It had an interesting story
13 May 2024
It is not difficult to consider Alexander Payne's fourth feature film as his best work. In "Byways", we can witness the most successful result of Payne's ability to combine comic tone with dramatic subtleties. Payne, along with his longtime collaborator Jim Taylor, won his first Academy Award for writing the film's adaptation. Except for the screenplay, "Byways" was also nominated for Oscars in four categories: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actress (Virginia Madsen) and Best Supporting Actor (Thomas Hayden Church).

Some of the values of "byways" can be easily explained. Payne and Taylor are master dialogue writers, few actors in the world can pull off the combination of "lovely bitter meat" as well as Paul Giamatti, and Jack's character is such a fun example of the "charming dimwit" trope! Miles and Jack's feud from "Backroads" makes for a top-notch "buddy movie," and the two characters' journey through the spectacular Santa Ynez wilderness reminds us why we love road movies.

A very important element that makes the audience accompany the film; Character and characterization is the main character of the film. A movie that cannot properly introduce its main character to the viewer and performs poorly in this part is doomed to failure. But "Code 8" is successful in this and although "Connor Reed" (played by Robbie Amell) is considered a character type; But the viewer accompanies him because at the very beginning of the movie, the features of this character and his life conditions are shown to the viewer, and his motivation for doing this adventure is clear (earning the necessary money to save the life of his sick mother). It should not be forgotten that an important part of this companionship of the audience happens thanks to the good acting of Robbie Amal. He has the ability to perform this personality type very well and plays a role of a typical male hero (strong, handsome, self-sacrificing and brave) in a completely believable and correct way.

Harakiri (1962)
8/10

12 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
"Harakiri", a classic from the land of the shining sun, a film that still has something to say after nearly sixty years.

A work that speaks of the rich culture of Japan in its beauty and perfection and is so beautiful in its expression that it makes people in any social status and class envious. It does not exist because the efforts made in non-western countries have mostly failed.

"Harakiri" is a successful attempt to showcase the deep and influential traditions of traditional Japan. This movie can be considered as a part of the previous classic Japanese movies that has strengthened the cornerstone of Japanese culture and its authentic traditions in the coming years, and the signs and leaves of this root can be seen in anime, action movies. And searched for computer games.

In this film, "Kobayashi" tries to narrate the life of a ronin. A samurai who has lost his master and is now in the worst condition of his life, in this miserable and suffering situation, one problem after another pours into his life and dominates him, causing his son-in-law to get rid of Misfortune sells his samurai sword and is forced to perform the harakiri ritual with a wooden weapon. Here, when the audience realizes the relationship between the ronin family and the samurai who committed suicide, this is the first turning point of the film, which elevates the story from a simple samurai narrative and narrates a huge and horrifying story.

Code 8 (2019)
6/10
It was a good movie
11 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
"Code 8" is a Canadian film in science-fiction, thriller and crime genre, both parts of which are directed by American Jeff Chan. In 2016, a 10-minute short film named "Code 8" was released, in which Robbie Amell (the main character of the film series) was also present. That short film, which was made with a budget of 2.1 million dollars, was well received, and so the creators decided to make a movie about the world of Code 8 in 2019. After the partial reception of the film "Code 8", the creators decided to stream its sequel on Netflix - without a theatrical release.

The production team of "Code 8" film series is a very inexperienced and almost unknown team. Both parts of this film series are directed by Jeff Chan, who himself has directed only 4 movies so far.

Dragon Blade (2015)

Entertaining
8 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The story takes place on the western border of China along the Silk Road route: "Huan" is the commander of the Silk Road Guard Group and his duty is to establish peace on this route. His way of dealing with different tribes is shown at the beginning of the movie and we see how he stops two tribes from war and even avoids war with politics in front of a female warrior of one of the tribes. On the way back, we see Huan's wife teaching children of different ethnic groups to read and write. Huan and his group are accused of smuggling gold because of the slippers they sewed for them and are exiled to the border town of "Wild Geese Gate", a symbolic city under restoration on the western border of China. But there the construction work is not going well and people from different tribes have problems with each other which usually leads to clashes.

In this movie, we are faced with two fighting styles. Chinese or Eastern style and Roman or Western style. Today, there may not be many details and knowledge about the Roman fighting method. Although we know that it was a great empire and this empire did not come into being without the knowledge of hand-to-hand combat, but there are not many documents left about this. Even seeing the short sword of the Roman soldiers, it seems a little strange that they won the battle with other nations who had longer swords. In any case, this army has been one of the largest and strongest armies in the world for many years and has influenced many civilizations... You can read more in the printed version.

Lift (I) (2024)
8/10
Attractive
7 May 2024
The movie Lift met with different reactions from the critics. Some critics praised the film for its good acting, entertaining direction and exciting action sequences. However, some other critics criticized the film for its predictable plot and lack of creativity.

Viewers liked the movie to a great extent and had fun with it.

Music The musics of the movie were all good and started playing at the right moments, but they were not new and were not exclusive to the movie Lift.

Sale One of the points of the film is that the film was not at its level and the expectations, and this director had previously worked on the Italian film, which had a budget of almost 30 million less, but managed to sell 176 million dollars and received a better opinion from the critics. And the viewers had received the ratio of this movie.

When you see a better film with the same theme from a director, you expect that his next film will be at a higher position, not a drop in quality.

Perhaps our first reaction to Dream Scenario is, how long is Nicolas Cage going to keep doing bad movies? It seems that acting in not so good movies is a habit for this actor. Cage probably thinks that good directors are not going to come to him for their films anymore. This actor tries his best to present his best in this movie, which of course succeeds to some extent. Cage is strong in portraying the type of a passive university professor who also has a midlife crisis, but this is not a film that Cage can count on and consider as a turning point in his artistic career.

The dream scenario is more indicative of the acting talent that has gone to the sidelines. A film that can hardly satisfy its audience and drag them into the satirical world it has created. The film is only supported by a few elements that we will discuss further. The dream scenario will be completely erased from your mind after watching it once. This movie is one of those works that after finishing, you will think to yourself that why should such a movie be made and why should a cinema audience watch such a narrative?

Five young men go to the mountains for fun and skiing, and at the suggestion of one of them, they go to a place that is a pristine place and there is no traffic there. There is an accident and they have to go to an old abandoned hotel nearby to stay there until morning, but they don't know that they are not alone there and a ruthless killer with his pickaxe (the son of the owner of the abandoned hotel) is hunting them in this hotel. ............

Overview:

A lot of movies have been made like this, and the fact that the mobile phone doesn't work is really ridiculous... the story of this movie is not that surprising, but you can see that it has three writers... but overall it was not a good movie, anyway, if you If you like movies like Jason (Friday the 13th), this movie is your movie.

This average movie, just like the first part, generally gets a variety of reviews from them, most of which are in the section. The most important ones point out that this movie avoids the weaknesses and problems of the previous episodes. But it has lost a lot of its magic. Exactly the same magic that drew the audience to this world, a good movie is a movie that grabs your attention from the very beginning and slowly starts to create a different atmosphere that won't let you get up for a moment. Why did I start this review with such a phrase? I wanted to tell you from the beginning that the movie Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore is so bad that you will enjoy it more if you are busy with something else during the movie. A film that is a bad mix of the clichés of Hollywood blockbusters in the early 21st century and fairy tales for children.

Frustrating
4 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
To make such an abomination, to so ignore every single element that made the original Harry Potter films so popular and effective, took a skill beyond the reach of the average person. Must be a magician. The well of "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald" (Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald) is so sealed that no plumber can open it. A series that once polished the nerves of my brain with its pleasant and pure fantasy and fantasy, now with "The Crimes of Grindelwald", it exhausts my mind so much that after going to the top of the end credits, and after more than five hours of sleep, it went from five hours. . to go It may sound like I'm ranting about spoiling the most anticipated movie in my life, but The Crimes of Grindelwald is the rare blockbuster that, even with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, is clearly something that captures all the hallmarks of the franchise. . It's like stepping on a minefield, but he called me deeply. It's just not happening in Hollywood with a bunch of other prequels that just use the greed of their creators to exploit the miraculous popularity of the original movies to their detriment. Any franchise that makes history will sooner or later produce a prequel that does the exact opposite of all the admirable things the originals did, regardless of whether or not the people making them contributed to the originals' success. Not from the calamity that George Lucas brought to his creature with the "Star Wars" prequels, to the heinous act that we witnessed with the "Hobbit" trilogy by Peter Jackson. If the original films originate from pure love and interest and passion and creativity and without the aim of "seeing if they get this project or not", they are made and because they are born from the heart and become their moment, they sit in the heart and make a sensation. Taken (an example is the story of the editing of "Star Wars"), the prequels have the status of ready-made morsels that are made with the aim of "come before it's too late, let's make money from this IP". Now that the foothold of the IP has been proven, the attempt to repeat the magic of the original films is shifted to the last priority.

4 May 2024
But "Fantastic Beasts" wants to trick and plans to attract the old fans of "Harry Potter" with the dark part of its story from the very beginning, in addition to attracting the new generation. The result is a movie that is not considered a perfect experience for any of its statistical community. Sometimes it seems as if Newt is not the main character of the movie at all, he was forced to wear the hero label on his forehead and was added to the story just to add a series of funny and funny scenes and to see him dealing with the beasts of his kingdom. During the film, Newt does not grow in terms of character, nor does he achieve any achievements, and during the film, he is far from the main events of the story and is not involved in the central plot of the story wholeheartedly.

Hello guys I do not recommend watching this movie at all A very boring and pointless movie It was a very, very poor movie I really wonder how Mr. Adrien Brody agreed to act poorly in this movie An actor who has won an Oscar should not play such weak roles In general, the acting, directing and even the story were very, very bad, and the best score that can be given is 4.

This movie is not a drama, not a comedy, nor does it have conceptual scenes All the scenes were boring and repetitive I hope that I will not see such a movie again in my lifetime and it will not be repeated in the history of world cinema.

Warning: Spoilers
Hello

At the suggestion of my friends, I got acquainted with the Cold Blood series and watched a few episodes and it made me laugh!

All these imitations! And all these problems in the script and acting and...

After seeing the part where the corpses were put into those metal barrels and acid was poured on them, I thought that how illiterate are the actors of the series that they don't even know that acid dissolves metal?!!

Actually, when you pour acid into a metal container, the container will be destroyed in less than a second and everywhere will be filled with acid!!!

Every child who is only familiar with chemistry knows this, but all the actors of the series, from the director, actors, editors, etc., do not know this.

This series is a low-level series and copied from a wonderful foreign series called Dexter!

If you are one of the people who are interested in the Cold Blood series, I suggest you to definitely watch the Dexter series so that you can't continue watching the Cold Blood series!

I wish that when they imitate to this extent, they would at least make it as attractive as the original series and pay attention to the small points of their series so that a series that is supposed to have an exciting and crime genre does not turn into a low-level comedy series.

In short, I recommend the Dexter series

It is really attractive and you will definitely like it.

Incredible

It's a strange comment to make about a drama film set inside a prison, but The Shawshank Redemption touches our emotions because it makes us part of a family. Many movies offer us vicarious experiences and quick, superficial emotions. But the Shawshank movie slows down and looks good. It uses Morgan Freeman's calm, pleasant and knowledgeable voice as the narrator to take us into the story of the men who have formed a small community behind the iron bars of the prison. Redemption in Shawshank is much deeper than in most movies. This movie is about the continuity of life and based on friendship and hope.
