The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

I have always postponed this one because of the length - and damn, this really felt like a 3-days long movie. If you're concerned about the movie length, watch 1h per day and you'll be good. It's really slow paced, no rush at all to binge watch everything at once.

Its' characters are well developed and likeable, and the story seems to be good (hard to tell from the first movie). As a newbie to this lore, it feels like something is missing at the end of the movie - similar to my "Dune" experience. The lore itself seems to be really interesting.

Jurassic World Dominion

This is a mix of Fast & Furious, Top Gun, Mission Impossible, all at once. WITH DINOSAURS! 

By the way, I wouldn't be with Chris Pratt... everything happens to him. Or I would, because he saves everyone all the time.

I'm not sure what else people would expect from a silly dinosaur movie... it's just what it always has been: a bunch of dinosaurs doing what they do best. And it's a good cinema experience to enjoy — obviously it's not meant to have a great story behind, and I've never expected this trilogy to have it. The special effects are really really good looking. I enjoyed it with all it's flaws.

Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers

This is a masterpiece of a reboot. I love how predictable it is, but it never really bothers you that you know what will happen. It's fun and entertaining, I love the mix between 2D, 3D & live action here. And damn, I can't believe we had that many references to other universes... cmon, was it really a Disney movie? So amusing!

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

After the first movie, this one was a disappointment to me. It felt so ambitious, yet it got me shocked how trash it was at some point, it felt like a hardcore trash movie with all the most unfunny things thrown at you at all times. All. The. Time. You get bombarded with bad takes - what the heck was that dance scene? Atrocious. The CGI is also lacking here for most parts, not sure why, it just felt cheap.

The acting of Jim Carey is great as usual, and I really like how they portrait the characters (Sonic, Tails & Knuckles) here, with their flaws and strengths. The final part is also good and fun for the most part.

I just don't comprehend the move target audience, to be honest. I know it's for kids, but I was expecting a family & kids movie, not a cheap movie for <12yo kids only.

Inside Man

Spike Lee, pure entertainment. This is cinema.

Taxi Driver

I'm just tired of this american point of view of stuff, I guess.

And I think it's time for me to create a "critically aclaimed movies I didn't like" list.

He Got Game

This felt cozy to watch like many other 90s movies somehow. Good story, sports, and that's it. 

I'm happy to watch a basketball movie without the "last minute point plot" for once.

The Good Dinosaur

I couldn't wait for the movie to end up so I could use my phone to do anything else. Even Twitter.
