Chaos Walking (2021)

It's alright

[6/10 · 18 April 2021]

The movie is honestly, pretty much OK. Interesting premise that I, personally, haven't seen before. It just needs about 30 minutes more of world and character building, kinda like a Snyder cut.

The OA (2016–2019)

Bring it back

[10/10 · 15 August 2019]

It's a show that makes you strongly feel all the feelings possible, a true masterpiece. Needs at least five seasons.

Upgrade (2018)

Unexpected awesomeness

[10/10 · 23 August 2018]

I never heard about this movie before and decided to watch it on a whim. Man, was I pleasantly surprised. It's got amazing action choreography, impressive video stabilization action effects, great humor and an almost video game-like music score. Basically it's knock-off Tom Hardy in Deus Ex Human Revolution the Movie.

Frequencies (2013)

Best movie I've seen in years

[10/10 · 16 June 2015]

The first thing I thought when I started to watch this movie is how it strongly reminded me of another awesome movie called Upside Down so if you like this one you should definitely check out Upside Down. The main reason I gave this movie a 10/10 is because it deals with almost all the philosophical questions I've had in my life and the best part is, it confirms all my viewpoints about fate, destiny, predetermination, luck etc. This is the type of movie that will become a popular reference in the future like the movie Idiocracy did, where people are now pointing out that our society is heading in the same direction just like it was portrayed in Idiocracy. Call me an idiot but I honestly believe that in the far future this movie will be treated like a documentary and will serve as an example of how our ancestors were on the right path of figuring out the nature of the universe. Unlike the other "intelligent" movies like Enemy, Predestination, Pi etc. where I had trouble to keep up with the story and had to watch it a few times along with those "explained" videos on Youtube, this movie is easy to follow with the only hard part being the end where they explain Theo's story. This movie is gold.

The 100 (2014–2020)

Potentially, the next Lost.

[10/10 · 9 April 2014]

There are show that require you to watch a couple of episodes to get you hooked, and there are shows that get you hooked in the first few minutes of the pilot episode. I was loving The 100 from the first five minutes and the main reason is the atmosphere of the show, it just allows you to immerse yourself completely into this show. The last time I got a similar feeling from a TV show was when I started watching Lost and we all know Lost was amazing despite it's flaws. The 100 has everything to potentially become an amazing TV show. It's got a great setting and atmosphere, solid acting and decent looking actors, parallel but connected plot lines, a bunch of mysteries to be uncovered and a lot of other cool small details. If the next episodes of the first season continue to impress me the way these first three did, I'll have to up my vote to 10 out of 10.
