5 Films I Haven't Mentioned | Blogmas Day 17

-
Hey Guys x

This year, I have mentioned so many different films on the blog that I thought it would be interesting to tell you about some films that I haven't mentioned or spoken about on here before.

It was really hard to find these films because I literally talk about every film that I've ever seen on here!

However, I did manage to find 5 films that I haven't really spoken about before that I think are worth mentioning. I hope you enjoy this post!

Triple 9

This is an action movie about a group of men who begin the film by robbing a bank. However, when their reward money is withheld by their boss's wife, they are forced to complete an even bigger job, choosing to instigate a 'Triple 9', which means that a cop will be killed/attacked so that all the other cops in the area will go to that location and the criminals can make their move. This is a really exciting, fast-paced film that I think most people would really enjoy.

The Unborn

Of course, I had to have a horror movie on this list! It's about a girl who is tormented by a malicious possessing spirit. I first watched it on a whim and it was really good so I'd definitely recommend it to horror lovers! It has a few jump scares, but it's supported by an interesting story with great characters and a few twists to keep you watching until the end!

Remember Me

This is just one of the most touching coming-of-age drama's I've ever seen. Tyler and Ally have strained relationships with their parents when they find each other and begin a relationship. But their happiness with each other is short-lived as it seems that the universe is trying to keep them apart. When I first saw this film, all the way through, I thought it was just alright. But the ending was so amazing, so powerful that it made me see the whole film in a completely new light. Definitely one to watch!

Ghostbusters

Here we have the all-female reboot of Ghostbusters. I haven't seen any of the other films so I went into this completely blind. It's about four women who, one way or another, end up being involved when ghosts seem to be attacking the city that they live in. I hadn't heard good things about this, but I was really pleasantly surprised. It's got a really good story, it's quite funny (most of the humour coming from Chris Hemsworth) and I would definitely recommend it as a fun, feel-good film. I can't wait to watch it again!

Hot Pursuit

I mainly have this one in the list because I'm watching it right now as I write this! It's about a policewoman who gets involved with a criminal's wife. The unlikely pair try to evade both criminals and the police as hilarity ensues. This is such a funny film. Reese Witherspoon and Sofia Vergara are such a good pair, they're both really funny and make the film amazing!

Thank you for reading.

It's 8 days until Christmas!

Come back tomorrow for Blogmas day 18

Wonka | Film Review

Young Willy Wonka (Timothée Chalamet) tries to follow his dreams to become a respected chocolatier, despite opposition at every turn . This film was never particularly high on my 'to-watch' list, but it was always on my radar, so I'm glad I've finally seen it. I liked this movie a lot more than I thought I would, but I still definitely had problems with it! For a start, while I love the fact that it was a musical, I didn't actually like any of the actual songs. None of them really stood out (except the one that's already known) and having only seen the film yesterday, I can't remember any of them. In fact, while the songs didn't hurt the film, I also don't feel like they were completely necessary. I would have liked the film the same amount if it hadn't been a musical. Wonka is a really charming character, and Chalamet plays him really well. In fact, the entire cast is great - definitely the best thing about the film by a mile. The relationship b

Scarface (1983) | 100 Movies Bucket List

Next up for the Bucket List was another first-time watch! I'd seen the original 1932 film years ago and really liked it, but I never got around to watching this (undoubtedly more popular) version, so I'm glad it was on the list. I really really liked this movie. I'm not sure if I like it more than, or the same as the original, but I definitely had a great time with it. One thing about finally seeing all these classic movies is seeing how much impact they've had on pop culture, and this film is definitely no exception. It's so quotable, there are so many iconic images, and it's one that everyone should watch if they haven't seen it before. The most talked-about aspect of this film is probably the violence, and that's so interesting to see. Not only the way it's spoken about, but also the difference between violence in older films like this and newer releases. I personally thought the violence was done well, and while probably not all of it was strictl

My Problem With '8 Simple Rules'

Hey Guys x Today's post might come out as more of a rant, which I'm OK with because I haven't ranted about something in a while! Last year, I started watching the show '8 Simple Rules' when it started playing on Comedy Central. It originally came on between 2002 and 2005 but I didn't watch it when it was first on. Anyway, I really got into it. There were only three seasons, so it was over before I wanted it to be. And I loved this show, and I still love it. Comedy Central doesn't play it anymore but if it did I would dive right back into it because I love a good sitcom. However, I have a major gripe with a plotline of the show, that got more prominent in season 2/3. Let me just explain the characters a bit, so you know who I'm taking about in case you never watched it. The show revolves around a family, Paul and Cate Hennessy, and their children Bridget, Kerry and Rory. In the second season, the father in the show died (due

American Psycho | 100 Movies Bucket List

This one was a re-watch. I'd seen this film once before watching it for the Bucket List. My memories of it weren't wholly positive - I didn't love the first watch, and while I didn't hate it, it wasn't a film that I was itching to watch again. Though saying that, I knew that I probably would watch it again eventually, because I knew how much of a classic it was. Like a lot of films I've watched for the Bucket List, I liked it more this time around than I did the first time, though I still didn't love it as much as I wanted to. But that being said, I did really enjoy it. The writing was great and Christian Bale was amazing in the role, as were the supporting actors. For me, though, the most iconic thing about this movie is its soundtrack. The songs used are amazing and fit the movie so well. They're used in such a unique, original way, that it feels like this alone makes the movie a classic. The film is really well made, and even though I don't love i

The Matrix | 100 Movies Bucket List

  Next up for the Bucket List was a first-time watch. This is one that I had obviously heard of but knew next to nothing about. I found that it took a long time for me to connect with the story, and even then, while the film was interesting to watch, I never felt particularly invested in it. There were a lot of recognisable, iconic moments that I appreciated, and I get how much of an impact it had on sci-fi (and probably movies in general), but I don't know if it was for me. I somewhat enjoyed it, I understood everything that happened, but never felt connected, and didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to. It could just be that I need to re-watch it, and I probably will, but for a first watch, I didn't take to it as much as I wanted to. But that being said, I'm glad I finally watched it!
