Nightcrawler, 2014 – 4/5

Gyllenhaal does a great job at being a creepy and ambitious video journalist. One of the more notable aspects of this film is that there isn’t really a “hero character”. About the only thing that felt off was the weird romance subplot, though it’s not really present for the majority of the film.

Lots of human drama with big monster fights sprinkled in.

Also, someone really wants Godzilla to be a hero.

Venom, 2018 – 3/5

Ramen Junkie August 28, 2019 0 Comments

It’s better than I expected, possibly the biggest surprise being Tom Hardy’s wierd voice in the trailer didn’t feel as off.

That said, the plot is kind of all over and doesn’t really get rolling until like an hour in. We spend 45 minutes watching Eddie wander around.being a journalist then another half hours watching Eddie wander around being hungry. The villain also basically comes out of nowhere right at the end and is really kind of crap.

A sequel might be alright without having to saddle itself with being an origin story and this Venom feels more Venom than the one from Spider-Man 3 so long ago.

Maybe the sequel will give us Spider-Man to face off against the teaser ending in the mid credits scene.

A Simple Favor, 2018 – 2.5/5

Ramen Junkie August 27, 2019 0 Comments

A movie that starts as one thing then twists into another then twists again I to something else by the end.

It’s an alright sort of thriller I guess but after laying on with so many layers of doubt and twits it got a little boring by the end. Also, I like Anna Kendrick but I feel like she works better with more sarcastic comedy material to work with.
