Gotti

This movie was UNFAIRLY judged. I personally liked it. It was good. The beginning where Travolta as Gotti talked into the camera could've been a voiceover, but I liked it. 

There's one scene that got me...so it's a typical mafia movie with crazy fights, organized crime, and tons of swears. But when 7 year old Frank Gotti got hit by a car. The scene where John as Gotti and Kelly Preston as Victoria Gotti deal with his death BROKE ME! I kept thinking I was watching them deal with Jett's death. 

I think if anyone but Travolta played this role the critics would've eaten this movie up. But after watching this movie start to finish ONLY Travolta could've played this role. I give it 4 out of 5 stars just cuz of that weird beginning & ending. It would've been perfect without those; again a voiceover would've been better.

Worth noting Spencer LoFranco and William DeMeo gave amazing performances. I was impressed overall by this movie and all the actors.

I AM SO UPSET BY THIS MOVIE! 2 stars out of 5 and that's ONLY because of Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt's beautiful bubble butt (on full display in one scene). Keep reading...

Okay I liked the movie but it was soooooooooooo sloooooooooooow! The buildup was annoyingly long, the only action was in the last 30 minutes. Don't get me wrong it was a 4 star movie without question, but the buildup was far too long. And if Toni Collette doesn't get an Oscar nod something is wrong with the system.

The story is about a little girl named Charlie (Milly Shapiro) who's quirky but the apple of her grandmother's eye. Unfortunately her grandma has just died; Charlie must go it alone with her doting parents (Gabriel Byrne and Toni Collette) and antsy brother Peter (Alex Wolff).

Not giving anything away, but Toni was brilliant. And the most horrific thing that happens in the film isn't even something supernatural (hint)! And Alex DESERVES a supporting actor's Oscar nod, although he won't get it because of politics. But lemme tell you if you don't see this movie cuz of any bad reviews see it cus of Toni! She's unreal! And Milly

So I loved the movie...4 stars out of 5. The ONLY thing was it was slow at times. I swear that's the only thing. Other than that it was great; you can kinda figure things out in the beginning, but again it was worth the 15 year wait. Emmy likey.

I won't give away spoilers, but the premise is it's 15 years from the original and all superheroes are now outlawed and in hiding. The governments feel they cause more property and personal damage than help. The team is given a chance to bring them back to the forefront at the same time dealing with "normal-ish" family problems.

Holy moses! 5 stars out of 5. This movie was amazing. Shailene Woodley and Sam Claflin have ridiculous chemistry. Don't listen to critics. It was amazing. I cannot love on this movie enough...oh and it's a true story.

Short review: Sam portrays sea ificando Richard Sharp who meets Shailene's Tami Oldham in Tahiti. They are paid to take Richard's friend's boat Tahiti to California. Only they encounter a terrible storm and must rely on each other when the water gets so rough not only is Richard thrown overboard, but Tami, a complete boating novice, must get them back to land thousands of miles out to sea.

Again so good. I laughed, cried, and gasped. AMAZING visual effects, acting was on point. WOW! Just wowowowowow

Before you judge the point of this movie, realize this REALLY is based on a true story from the Wall Street Journal about a group of childhood friends whom have been playing tag since they were kids. REAL footage of these men at the end of the movie. Having said that this movie is at least a 4 out of 5 stars. Although I liked it alot, I couldn't watch it another viewing. Keep reading...

Listen before October 2017 I classified myself as a feminist through and through; I disliked the idea of an "all female Ocean's movie" because I felt it was too inclusive, but I still went because I support women. Was I surprised when the movie ended up being 5 out of 5 stars. Keep reading...
