Your Place or Mine (2023)
A dull view on friendship and love
The main thing i didn't understand from the movie was why all the coffee cups they are drinking from are actually empty. Like, is it difficult to give full cofffee cups to actors to drink from? This is similar to the rest of the movie, it seemed like it can easily catch a theme and a story that avoids gigantic cliches such as "friends realizing they love each other".. But it doesn't, instead it reluctantly surfs around in all directions. The mix of friends with benefits, dates motherhood are all mixed into a pot but the result is a bit more confusing than life usually is. I just wished it explored and moved on to new themes.
The Assistant (2019)
Absolutely boring
I don't understand how this movie cannot be considered boring. Almost half of the movie shows characters doing mundane tasks. Walking. Making copies. Waiting!!! The main character lady is quite obviously on strong antidepressants. Its a ridiculous parade of strange dull scenes and cliche dialogs accompanied by keyboard typing. Those who relate to this film should maybe quit their jobs sooner. Its almost like the opposite of a superhero movie. Where a girl in serious mental issues is struggling to work with her abusive boss and is struggling to report her to authorities and is struggling with her own depression.
Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank (2022)
Absurd and not funny and definitely not for children or teenagers
There are so many grown up jokes in the movie that i had hardtime understanding why its made as an animation. This was rather a collection of absurd jokes, including breaking the fourth wall, so id say its definitely not for kids under 8..
Maid (2021)
A little bit about insanity and addiction. Nothing else.
The series is about a single mom who makes strangely bad decisions and is surrounded by all kinds of insane and addicted people. At some point the show is more about these people rather then her, her daughter, her parenthood, her poverty or anything.
The acting is pretty bad. The story is strange. So much that if it claims to be a real life story i feel like there should be another side to things portrayed, the repeated abuse and insanity portrayed by everyone. It gets very annoying after 3rd episode.
Odd Brodsky (2014)
Unintentional absurdity
The movie is floating in all directions until you realize its not going anywhere. The number of positive 10/10 reviews on imdb and positive reviews by some critics made me try, but definetely not worth it.
Hodejegerne (2011)
What? Why? STOP!
The great German word fremdschämen means "secondary embarrassment", to feel ashamed by even just witnessing other peoples actions and feeling their shame. If there was a national level of this, this is what I felt when I watched this movie. It made me realize I had such a high regard for Norwegian cinema without even watching a single movie before.
Technically the movie is nice. Great sound effects. Very nice visuals and shots. Good acting. All these do not change the one horrible aspect of this movie, the bizarrely flawed script that I just could not manage to cover the loopholes of.
If you can ignore all these flashes and blinks in your neurons than you might enjoy the movie. However it provides so many open points, I have to list them as questions.
-----------------SPOILER BEYOND THIS POINT DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE MOVIE --------------
-Why would a company with "a billion dollar deal" get only his CEO and a strangely weak woman to handle its murder business? -How can this CEO work as a special ops commando up until a few years ago? -Why would he investigate a silly headhunter for some position? -Why would he sleep with the headhunters wife? -Why and how would he learn that the headhunter is an art thief? -Why would he lure him into his apartment to steal a painting (fake or not)? -Why would he try to poison or kill the headhunter? -Why does the headhunter art thief choose his own garage to transfer the painting to his partner? -...
I cant go on. I watch movies, I read novels, I like both. But I have never seen a script this shallow even in most Hollywood movies. This was really bad at some point we were wishing it stopped soon because this silly action story laced with horrendous love undertones was getting too ridiculous. It scares me that this movie has such high reviews because to me, nothing makes sense in it.
