Kraven the Hunter | Film Review

Image
Kraven's (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) complicated relationship with his father leads to him becoming one of the greatest, most feared hunters in the world. I heard such bad things about this film before seeing it, the reviews were horrible! So I unintentionally put off watching it for a while. But I'm glad I finally got around to it. I don't know if it's because of all the negative reviews, but I ended up having a great time. Now, that's not to say this was a great film, but I had a lot of fun watching it. For a start, I thought the story was really interesting, especially because we got to see a significant portion of Kraven's childhood before we get to present day (though the 'past' section could have been a bit shorter). At almost an hour in I had no idea where the story was going, but I was enjoying the journey. And this stayed the same the whole way through, I didn't really know what was happening but I had fun with it. I really loved seeing the way t...

Independence Day | 100 Movies Bucket List

  At first I thought this was a re-watch but about 40 minutes in I realised that I don't think I'd seen it before, so I'm glad it was on the list! I find disaster movies a bit hit-or-miss. There are some that I really love and will watch repeatedly, and others that I never want to see again. I didn't love this movie, but I didn't hate it either. I feel quite neutral about it. I didn't know who was in the film before watching, outside of Will Smith, so it was nice that there were a lot of familiar faces, all of whom did a great job with their characters. I also didn't remember exactly what the film was about - I thought it was more of a straight natural disaster movie than an alien invasion disaster movie.  I really liked the variety of stories and characters that we follow. We see this situation through different points of view, following different characters and each one is as interesting as the next. As someone who doesn't typically love films centred ...

Slingshot | Film Review

  An astronaut (Casey Affleck) struggles to maintain his grip on reality while embarking on a potentially fatal mission. This was a really random choice, as it wasn't something I heard much about before it came out, and I don't really love movies set in space. But I'm a fan of the actors involved so that was reason enough to check it out! I liked this film more than I thought I was going to, but that doesn't mean it was that good! The film kind of tells two stories, the one about what's happening in space with the crew (Affleck, Laurence Fishburne and Tomer Capone), and the past love story on Earth between John (Affleck) and Zoe (Emily Beecham). I was a lot more interested in the love story than the space story until the last maybe 30 minutes of the movie. I wanted to see so much more of it. But in saying that, whether we're focused on the love story or the space story, none of the characters had enough chemistry. And while their performances were great, you don...

Taxi Driver | 100 Movies Bucket List

  Next up was a much-anticipated re-watch! I saw this film for the first time a few years ago, and while I remember enjoying it, I couldn't really remember too many specific details about it, so I'm glad it was on the list - especially because it's one that I would have expected to be on the list last year. I also had no idea until writing this review that I actually reviewed this film back in 2019, so it was really interesting to go back and read that! The first thing that has to be pointed out is how great the acting is. Robert De Niro is obviously amazing in this role and the supporting cast are great too. But in particular, Jodie Foster, who was only 12 years old when she played her role(!) did an incredible job. And despite the controversy of the role, the character was able to have a great arc and an interesting relationship with Travis, which is part of what makes the story so interesting. And ironically, Scorsese's small cameo is one of the best-acted scenes in ...

5 Books You Need To Read | Part 2

Hey Guys x I did this back in April here and some of you guys liked seeing the books that I recommended. So I thought that I'd do it again with another 5 of the best books that I've read! I think I've reviewed most of these before, but it's either so long ago that you probably haven't read it, or if you haven't been reading my blog for that long, you'll have no idea I even like these books! I'm hoping that some of the books I recommend are books that you haven't read, because it will give you more ideas of new things to read! You're The One That I Want This is the classic romantic love triangle. Two guys who have been best friends since forever, and a girl who they let into their gang back in primary school. But when both boys fell for the gorgeous Maddy, tensions begin to arise. And suddenly, it's years later and Maddy is standing at one end of the aisle in a white dress, wondering if she made the right decision. But when it co...
