Santana (2020)

Terrible... And I'm Angolan.

[2/10 · 7 September 2020]

When you make a movie, you need to understand that you're telling a story. So, dialogue and narrative are extremely important. With that said, this is by far the worst dialogue I've seen in the past few years; I'm Angolan and I couldn't finish watching this movie.

A movie can also be a portrayal of a society. This movie also failed at that. That is not how Angolan people talk, move or act. So, what is your movie trying to accomplish really?

Now, moving forward, look to Brazillians as an example. They focus on character development and story (City of God, Tropa de Elite, etc). Focus on THAT!

Wonder Woman (2017)

DC, you should be proud of Wonder Woman.

[8/10 · 2 June 2017]

This movie had a lot of heart, it hits the audience emotionally several times throughout the movie and in different ways, it makes you laugh, think at times and some people even teared up in some moments. I had to bring a female friend with me and I did, she enjoyed the movie so much that at times she was just dishing out laughs at times I wasn't even laughing that much. It's a truly funny movie, but when it needs to... And it is convenient. My biggest criticism of some of these super hero movies, I won't name names, is that there's a joke being thrown out every 30 seconds. Even when the stakes are really high, and the world is falling apart, jokes are being thrown everywhere. That doesn't happen in this movie, when it gets dark, it gets dark. When it touches serious subjects such as consequences of war, you kind of feel it. the chemistry between Gadot and Chris is amazing, they were really good together. This was my favorite role he has been in, sry Captain. This is the best DCEU movie so far and the best since The Dark Knight to me, easily. Whatever changes were made at Warner Bros. it worked, keep hitting that note cause I like it.

Aside note: I'm sure every person who played God of War I (the game) felt nostalgic throughout this movie. I love Greek mythology, always did as a kid and before Wonder Woman, I felt like God of War was one of the few things that got it right. Well done.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

Movie was an 8 on my scale. But because of this unfair, biased reaction from critics it's a 10 now

[7/10 · 25 March 2016]

Pros:

The intro is one of the best things I have seen.. EVER. Second half of the movie was worth all the buildup (that wasn't perfect). The action was stelar and every single fight a treat. Ben Affleck is the best Batman I've seen and the fact that he looks like Comic Book Batman helps. His Bruce Wayne is also stellar. Loved him in every single scene as Bat or Bruce Wayne. Visuals and costumes were great. was good overall - Visuals - Costumes are sick.

Cons:

• That Second trailer that revealed everything

-Messy first half - Loyalty to the source material in terms of character development (motivations)

• Lex Luthor is not Lex Luthor and is not threatening as a villain. Should be given another name

Rick and Morty (2013– )

The Best New Adult Animated Series Around

[9/10 · 23 December 2013]

I just finished watching the first three episodes and feel instantly hooked. I have the same feeling I had when I watched Family Guy for the first time, in which I felt like every single character was interesting and was contributing for the series in their own ways. In this show, things that will make you laugh are dark and awkward at times which succeed every time. I haven't found a single bad moment so far in the first three episodes and can't wait to watch the whole thing

The first episode was awesome and got me straight to the next. The dog world domination episode is going to be a classic, go watch it. People will remember that episode.
