Quick Reviews

There’s a great movie in here but I feel the pacing is really off. Each act takes waaaay too long to get going, and by the time they got there I was tired of it already, and ended up not caring as much. Good ending though.

While the movie takes its time to get going, it is so well worth it. It keeps reinventing itself every few minutes and just keeps getting better and better.

The soundtrack, though, is just on another level. It is so good. One particular scene is gonna stick in my mind for a while, it was freaking amazing. If you watched it, you know which one it is.

Gosh I loved this movie. A thriller that managed to make me both really tense and laugh out loud in the same scene without any of these reactions contradicting each other. It’s absolutely ridiculous in the best way.

Raw and gut-wrenching are perfect adjectives for this one. It wants to get its message across and pulls no punches in doing so: nobody wins a nuclear war.

While this is probably my least favorite of the trilogy, it’s still one of the best movies ever made. An outstanding achievement in all regards. I can’t believe these movies exist.

The extra scenes for the extended edition are also pretty neat, and add some extra context that is very welcome for a fan like me. The overall movie pacing gets a bit worse which is why it’s totally understandable why they were cut from the theatrical release. And another reason I’m glad the extended editions exist!

I just wish the final Saruman scene was in this movie instead of the next one. I feel like it’d wrap around this movie’s story a bit more nicely.

It’s still a fun movie, but it’s basically the same thing as the first one but with worse pacing and felt a bit too forced.

Can’t believe I’d never watched the extended editions before. This movie is just timeless, a perfect introduction to a wonderful world, amazing pacing, acting, environments and practical effects.

It’s almost 4 hours long but I wanted to start the next one immediately after it finished.

Cute with a hint of sadness, I love the combination. The art style and character designs are amazing!

I had no idea what to expect from this movie and it kept surprising me over and over. It’s already pretty long but I wish it kept going for a bit longer.

Watching this movie feels like a nightmare. Things happen and you really don’t have much say in it, then they start spiraling out of control and you’re completely unable to do anything. You can’t run, yell or fight.

The religious allegories are quite obvious and are great, but that nightmarish feeling was really something I hadn’t felt with a movie before.

Holy crap, now this is a good horror movie. A slow burn that really pays off. Its found footage structure makes perfect sense in the story and also reflects a lot on what you think and feel during the entire movie. It finds the perfect balance of explaining things enough to be satisfying but not enough to break the horror aspect (something that most movies just suck at).

Okay, first of all I think this is an amazing movie, it looks and sounds amazing, all the characters are extremely creative, it’s a beautiful coming-of-age story and it’s a major pop culture icon. But watching it felt like a bit of a chore, I can’t really explain why. Good thing the ratings here are about my enjoyment of the movies, not their “objective” quality 😅

Pretty solid body horror movie. Some real memorable scenes with really good acting, with a solid story that builds on top of the classic Cinderella. Can’t go wrong with this one!

A real punch in the gut and a must-watch. Not much more that can be said.

Fuck nazis.

Has some pretty amazing moments and is overall very good, but just like the first one, it overdoes the action scenes, with one after another. So it ends up feeling bloated. Not enough to make it a bad movie, far from it! I never understood why the Hobbit movies are so underrated.
