Casino Royale (11/27/23)

 Casino Royale

I really enjoyed this movie. I am huge on the action and spy movies. I think that this is the best of the Bond movies. I enjoyed this movie not just because of the action, but also because of the gambling. I used to love playing poker online and even took a masterclass on it a while back from on of the top players in the world. It was fun to watch the cards being flipped and the amount of suspense there is on the hand where Bond and Le Chiffre were all in. I would rank this movie in my top 10 of all time.

    I didn't think you were doing Martin Campbell as your guy for the midterm.

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (5/13/24)

  Puss in Boots: The Last Wish     I liked this movie a lot more than I thought I would. When I was younger, I loved the original puss in boots movie. I watched is so many times. I saw the trailer for this movie in a theater a while back and wasn't very interested in watching it since I was a lot older. I recently found it on my recommended page on Netflix and decided to give it a shot. I just want to say that this movie brought back so many childhood memories. The plot of the movie was amazing and the action was great. I loved Death's character especially his theme song. The idea that Puss's time is constantly running out and Death is always waiting was such a creative idea. I would highly recommend this movie to people regardless if you think you are too old to watch movies made for kids. Some of them are still very entertaining. I wish I watched this in theaters when it was out.

Tag (2/26/24)

  Tag      This movie was awesome. The movie was also based off a true story about a friend group who played a game of tag for 20+ years. The movie was enjoyable to watch since it was not slow. This show was the more entertaining and cinematic version of the tv show ultimate tag.  The ending revealing that Hoagie was going to die soon and that this was the last year to try and tag Jerry for the first time in 30 years made the whole movie have a deeper meaning. This movie is a strong reminder that nothing lasts forever and that we should cherish our friendships and memories. This movie makes me wish I had a friend group like this but it will probably never happen unless I meet some true characters in college. This movie was good and I would recommend it to some people. This movie was not a super action filled movie. It was more of a comedy movie.

Happy Gilmore (5/6/24)

  Happy Gilmore     Happy Gilmore has to be one of the best comedy movies in existence. The storyline of hockey player to golfer was amazing. As funny as the movie was, it also has great messages. The theme of constant failure and the need to adapt and find another solution should be a message everyone takes away from the movie. Happy failed to make the hockey team several years in a row but his powerful shot allowed him to get an amazing career in golf. The movie is a great example about how failure opens up other doors and allows you to learn from your mistakes.     I also find this movie relatable since I play both sports. When Happy starts swearing like a sailor missing the ball, I think about how similar we are. We hit a bad shot and start having a rampage on the course. Happy's attitude due to his hockey career is also very accurate. I have had teammates who get into nonstop fights every single game and get ejected. The movie did a fabulous job with Happy'...
