Fully agreed. The guy playing Jafar did his best, but I feel like he doesn’t have a menacing enough persona to really sell the part. His voice especially was a let-down; I miss the lovely threatening baritone of the original.
As for Iago… Less said the better. We went from a wise-cracking, scheming megalomaniac little tyrant to an actual parrot. Full-on Polly-want-a-cracker territory. What were they thinking??
Godzilla: King of the Monsters [2019] One of those movies that needs a warning for epileptic causing light flickering every five minutes. In between that, a numbering scheme for the destruction scene currently on display. Its like the Man Of Steel (2013) movie where the latter part of the movie was a tech demo for environmental destruction.
Also, none of her fault, but I kept hoping for Eleven to just end all the monsters and be done with it.
I watched two Czech movies based on Radovan Krejcir. They made the guy look like a super criminal in the American style. The silliest bit was that they had people with American accents playing South Africans.
Tried watching Joker - it wasnt for me.
I need to be in the mood for something that deep - movies for me is an escape from reality - so it might have hit to close to home in a weird way. I managed 30mins before switching it off. I prefer mindless fun when I watch something, I should also add I am not a comic book person nor a huge comic book movie fan.
I can see why everybody won’t enjoy it (very slow for almost 2 hours), but I absolutely loved it. For me this is probably the best Tarantino movie to date. I really enjoyed the stories of each main character and those last 40 minutes were intense.
