Worthy of your time to watch
18 December 2023
This is my first time to watch Indiana Jones, and it hasn't occurred to me that I would love this film. The poster from the former franchises has no appeal for a young teenage girl like me, particularly since these movies were made in the 90's, but it is such a bummer that I have not watched this brilliant film. Now, I'm on a marathon to catch up on the first movies.

I have no idea why the critics have not liked this final franchise and said that this is not a worthy film to be seen; otherwise, I have a different intake on that. This film is one of the great plots they served this year.

I believe this is a great film, despite a few flaws with the character backstory and reasons. Starting with the female character, Shaw is the cunning goddaughter of Dr. Jones, who stole the dial so she could auction it to the mobsters in order to settle her loans. Although she was very annoying, cunning, and a bad character for an hour, at least she had better character development and stuck to her morals to help Dr. Jones.

Second, he is the godfather, and he has no idea what she turned out to be and no communication at all after her father died. That is the worst godfather, then. It means he hasn't dealt with her even once-never.

Third, how come that Nazi is still alive? There's no backstory for that, so it's a minus point. It's a deep sinkhole for the movie.

And lastly, never has the CIA intervened after the agents were killed, and they just let suspects roam around the world? Have they not notified other bureaucracies and interagency agencies in other countries that there are fugitives running around? The movie had not tackled that.

Overall, it a great film - filled with adventure, and stunning, breathtaking film set.

feel good action family movie
18 December 2023
This is an action-comedy movie, and it's just a feel-good movie. It's not depressing; rather, it's an enjoyable, chill, and fun movie. Some might not like this type of movie, but there's also people like me who just want to watch action-packed scenes without too much gore, not that violent, and especially obscenity scenes. The bed scenes are just okay, which I like since, as I have said, it is just a family-feel-good movie, and it is appropriate for the movie's theme.

The casting is perfect; I could sense the connection between the characters and each other, and the interaction of the family is very realistic.

The editing is also good, and so far, I have not seen any plot holes. I also love their lines; they wrote the dialogue well. Action scenes are not that repetitive. In that scene where Monaghan broke the bamboo, I really thought she was going to jump, but it was not, and she performed an unexpectable execution.

This movie is recommendable and much more exciting compared to the EX4 lol.

Expend4bles (2023)
Expectation had not reached
17 December 2023
Cringy lines. Casting is meh, especially Megan Fox-as in, why? Why did they focus on a gorgeous actress to be part of this installation? Should they have focused the budget on the CGI, props,and location? All scenes were boring; all I did was click the skip button to be on the exciting and action scenes, but it was still meh. The plot is not good; there is no direction at all. I'm so speechless that I cannot fathom how bad this movie is. The disappointment is what I got from watching this. It is really bad. It was really bad. I was expecting that this fourth movie would be a redemption from the third, but my expectations were not matched by how the movie turned out.
