NOTW Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning part 1. These movies always deliver. They use some classic tropes since everything's been done, but manage to add some things to keep it fresh. There are a lot of call backs to previous movies especially the first one. It was good on the big screen for the sound and special effects. Tom Cruise is 61 and does not age it's insane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent23 Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 The Dolby theater had the seats vibrating and the room rumbling at all the right parts. I have it a letterbox 3.5 because it didn’t wow me in the way Fallout did, but it was still much enjoyable and had lots of well done, unexpected humor. Will probably bump to 4 stah upon a rewatch.

Bill Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Oppenheimer was damned good. It was edited similar to Dunkirk, but in a more coherent way if that makes sense. The worst part of the movie was the sound editing, but at least you could hear the dialog. also there’s boobs in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 1 hour ago, dawkins4prez said: So the problem was Nolan all along, not Zimmer. Oh, 100%. I will say that this composer makes a score that is a touch more complementary to what you’re seeing on screen than what Zimmer did. Zimmer made a score for like when you want to watch a movie like you’re looking at a painting like they did in Ferris Bueller. Nolan’s biggest issues were always sound mixing and editing itself. There’s a lot of jump cuts. Nolan needs to understand that not every scene transition needs to be TE Lawrence blowing out the match. And even then that cut wasn’t immediately accompanied by a score. It worked for Inception, but not as well for a biopic. Nolan is to sound mixing and editing what shaky cam was post Saving Private Ryan. The pacing was ok. Third act was a little long but it’s a Nolan film so what did you expect. I understand what he goes for, and his projects are great and evolutionary. That said, villanueve (sp?) is the better overall director as he understands when to be subtle. The acting and the writing were great. The story kept me engaged, even if it was a little long in the tooth. As long as you go in expecting a 4/5 movie that isn’t at all subtle youll enjoy it. Edit: Zimmer is a great composer, but imo Johann Johansson was pound for pound a better composer. It’s a shame he OD’d, because had he made more movies he could eventually became arguably one of the greatest of all time. That one other Icelandic composer who was his understudy produced some underwhelming results, but it’s not her fault. Johansson was a tough act to follow. This guy they used for Oppenheimer was pretty good and is much closer to what Johansson could produce. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanMeanGM Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Barbie should have bare boobs with no nips. Since its PG-13, I'm holding out hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been amazing. I thought the movie was hilarious, I bet it was a blast to film cause it was a fun movie to watch. It was definitely a good idea to see that before Oppenheimer, as I don't think I would've been able to enjoy barbie as much immediately after seeing Oppenheimer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanMeanGM Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 I didn’t see Barbie or Oppenheimer but did some at home movie watching. Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant was really good. Good action and lots of tension, even my wife loved it who hates action war movies. Didn’t seem like a Guy Ritchie movie at all either. I wouldn’t have even known he produced/directed it if his name wasn’t in the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikemack8 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Ended up watching the Covenant last night then Spoiler Middle act drug on a bit for me, but man what a massive payoff at the end. Really good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
