Reels in the Round

This week I watched and reviewed the BlacKkKlansman.Directed by Spike Lee, and starring John David Washington. This movie is rated as a comedy, even though there were some comical parts, I would not count this as a comedy.  Fantastic movie with visuals, sound, cast, writing. I think this movie is a must watch, for everyone.

This movie talks about the history behind Glen's journey into space. The writing is fantastic, with about 80% of the movie being factually correct (from what we can tell). The majority of the falseness is combining people into single characters. They also used actual footage from JFK's speech and the launch in the movie, which made it that much better. The sound was also exceptional. This movie is also immersive, you feel like you are actually apart of the movie, not so much that the camera is a character, but you feel emotional with the character's highs and lows. Make sure you check out the Nasa livestream where we are sending a rover to mars. 3:55pm 

This week we watched Bullit, A classic in movies. Starring Steve Mcqueen and Robert Vaughn. I didn't think it was my style, but it was still excelently made. We talked about the differences in movies made now, vs then. Another topic was about the amount of advertisements in the amount of movies today. Go ahead and watch it, tell us what you think.

This movie, even though it features cars in it, you do not have to be a car person to watch it. This movie is brilliant with the acting, Matt Damon and Christian Bale star in it, and no one could've played their characters better. This movie has the perfect ratio between seriousness,  emotionalness, and funniness. Must watch for anyone and everyone.

This week we watched The Usual Suspects. Good movie with the actor's playing a major role in how the movie went. There were many scenes where the actors went unscripted. Surprise twist ending at the end, that no one is supposed to see coming, but used in many other movies and conversations as well. You guys should've seen this one before, if not, go and watch it.

This week we watched The mothman prophecies, Directed by Mark Pellington. Staring Richard Gere, Laura Linney, and David Eigenberg. This is sorta a horror movie, but more of a thriller, with only one "jumpscare" in it. The DP is really just another character in this film, as most of the time, you are the mothman looking at the characters in the story. This movie is very unique in a good way. There are things this movie does, that breaks the rule of thumb of film and video, but it a good way. I would recommend all of you to watch it. Thank you, and we'll see you all next week.

This episode we watch Brick starring Joseph Gorden-levitt, directed by Rian Johnson. The writing  in this movie is just next level, it almost seemed like a poem at some points. This movie also had some things you don't see in other movies or videos for that fact, how the frame doesn't have a subject, making you think the thing in the frame has a specific reason for being there. The sound design was also top notch. I can go on and on about this movie, just go and watch it.

This episode we watched Lucky number Slevin starring Morgan Freeman, Josh Hartnett, Bruce Willis, and Lucy Liu. This movie is wonderfully crafted from the visuals to the writing, We have no clue how it didn't do better in the box office. The last 25 minutes of the story there is a big twist ending, where you truly find out the story, and I really like how it did it. After it revealed the big twist, you feel enlightened, as the rest of the movie makes total sense now. Go watch it. it is one of my favourites now. It's a steal on Amazon Prime.

This episode we watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang starring Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer. This movie is a stunning movie with how they wrote it and filmed it. You cannot be on your phone when you watch this movie, because it moves so fast. This movie is so under rated and I think you should all watch it.
