Dauntless: The Battle of Midway (2019)
Boring story, lousy ending.
What a waste of time. At no point did the movie manage to make me feel anything for the characters and what a terrible and totally disappointing ending, which I of course can't describe in any detail here without spoiling the story. Both my wife and I were very disappointed with this movie.
Poltergeist (2015)
Weak and boring remake of a great movie
I can't help but wonder why they decided to make a remake of the original Poltergeist. If the idea was to make a better or more scary movie, they failed badly. If they wanted better special effects, they failed badly. If they wanted to show us better acting and more interesting characters, they failed badly. In total, this movie is a weak and washed out copy with absolutely nothing done better than it was in the original.
A few things in the storyline were changed compared to the original, but it certainly didn't add anything to the overall story. Besides, some of the most memorable moments in the original, was barely touched in the copy and it left me very disappointed. Those moments could have been done so much better (or at the very least, lasted a few seconds longer)
If I had seen this movie as an original, I would say that it was an OK movie, but not very scary or interesting. Seen as a remake, it simply fell flat. If you have never seen the original Poltergeist, go see that instead. It has all the character involvement, scariness and shock effects that the copy lacks.
