Conclave

Cardinal Lawrence is tasked with one of the world's most secretive and ancient events -- participating in the selection of a new pope. Surrounded by powerful religious leaders in the halls of the Vatican, he soon uncovers a trail of deep secrets that could shake the very foundation of the Roman Catholic Church.

So like a suspense and intrigue movie about picking a pope?   Um . . . . . I'm good.   Like maybe if I remotely cared about any of this maybe this movie would matter but twists and turns and backstabbing about finding which dude to be named pope is about as interesting as watching paint dry.

I would not recommend anyone bothering with this.  Like there were good performances and stuff sure but not nearly enough to really hook you on the subject matter.

Venom: The Last Dance

Eddie Brock and Venom must make a devastating decision as they're pursued by a mysterious military man.

Dear lord this has been such a trash ass trilogy.   LOL!  The first movie was so bad that I was openly heckling the screen in the theater.  The second one was a joke but like a little bit more watchable.  This was just beyond mailed in.   Like Men In Black 2 level mailed in sequel.  Completely pointless.  Just kind of swept away all of the teases from the last one of continuity with the rest of the Spidey Universe.   Just seriously trash.

I would not recommend anyone ever bothering with this.   it was really really bad and so beyond pointless in every way.

Smile 2

About to embark on a new world tour, global pop sensation Skye Riley begins to experience increasingly terrifying and inexplicable events. Overwhelmed by the escalating horrors and pressures of fame, she must face her dark past to regain control of her life before it spirals out of control.

This is kind of a tough one to review.   I was loving it for like two hours.  I actually liked it more than the first one.  Tons of great jump scares.  Lots of crazy and creepy as hell filming angles that added so much tensions to scenes.  I like the pacing even though the movie was a little bit too long.  It was easier to understand than the first one which kind of lost me at one point.  And you really were hooked by the lead character.   But then there was the last like 3 minutes.   I don't want to spoil it but like they did that one thing that I HATE in horror movies.  Like when you reveal what the evil entity looks like don't drop the ball.  The definitely did.  I loved the idea of what they were going for but the physical reveal was just complete trash.

It's a shame because I actually really would have recommended people checking it out but that last scene really annoyed the hell out of me so I'll go with a go see it but leave 10 minutes early.  

We Live In Time

Almut and Tobias are brought together by a surprise encounter that changes their lives. As they embark on a path challenged by the limits of time, they learn to cherish each moment of their unconventional love story.

This was kind of strange and disjointed way of telling their love story.  Like I got the premise but I felt like it hurt their story overall.  Outside of that it was a decent heartstring puller with good performances by both actors.  Just not really good enough to openly be saying it must be seen.

I would only lukewarmly recommend people check this out.  It is very much not a must see by any means but it is a decent watch for a romance with ALOT of heartstring pulling as well.

Piece By Piece

LEGO bricks tell the life story of singer/songwriter and record producer Pharrell Williams -- from his childhood in Virginia to his success in the music and fashion industry.

I'm very confused by this movie.  It was a great musical documentary.   The music was great too.   I actually probably would have enjoyed it as a regular musical documentary.  But like . . . . . . . . why was it animated and in legos?   Like it wasn't for kids.  It wasn't remotely supposed to be a comedy or a family film.   So then . . . . . why legos?   LOL

I don't know that I would really recommend anyone rushing to see this.  It was a decent watch and the music was great.   The lego animation was cool as always just have no idea why this movie was done in this style.

Saturday Night

Tensions run high as producer Lorne Michaels and a ferocious troupe of young comedians and writers prepare for the first broadcast of "Saturday Night Live" on Oct. 11, 1975.

I can't really put my finger on why but I absolutely loved this movie.   I loved how hectic it was.  I loved how real it felt.  I loved the things touched upon and the people referenced.  I loved how they tried to build up the known characters enough even though it was a real time movie.   It really gave me so much more respect then I already had for Saturday Night Live as a production.

I would definitely recommend people checking this out.  It was a very enjoyable movie and told in a great yet incredibly hectic way that very much prevented a minute of it dragging at all.

Terrifier 3

After surviving Art the Clown's Halloween massacre, Sienna and her brother struggle to rebuild their shattered lives. As the holiday season approaches, they try to embrace the Christmas spirit and leave the horrors of the past behind. However, just when they think they're safe, Art returns, determined to turn their holiday cheer into a new nightmare.

What is there to say about this movie?   It is what it is and more just ridiculously over the top gore just for the sake of what you can get away with doing/showing.   Some extremely gross and absurd stuff.   And the Clown was campy as hell which always strangely entertains while watching complete grossness.   All advance words was about the opening scene but I was too numb for that to bother me.  There was a shower scene later on in the movie that actually made me stand up and threaten to walk out that actually made the whole theater laugh their asses off.   So gross.

Would I recommend people watching this?  Dear God NO!!!!   These movies are so completely gross.   LOL.   Main reason I go is because of it becoming a hilarious ball busting inside joke with my bestie.   Nobody should honestly ever see these movies.

Joker: Folie A Deux

Struggling with his dual identity, failed comedian Arthur Fleck meets the love of his life, Harley Quinn, while incarcerated at Arkham State Hospital.

I left feeling the same way about this movie as I did the first one.  It was a great movie with awesome acting but would have been so much better without the connection to known comic book characters.   Like that connection held this back and kept making you think other things would happen comic book wise.  Remove that connection and you would have an incredible story about mental health and love.

I would still recommend people check it out because it was a great movie with awesome acting.   It's just a comic book movie that is very much NOT a comic book movie.
