Ready Player One - 8.5/10
Whilst it was no Inception, there were certainly many nods to other great films and characters, even Inception.
I waited to watch this film in VR, watched with a friend in Big Screen Beta both on HTC Vive, which added to the coolness of the whole thing.
The fact that in around 10 years time, that's what it will actually be like (The Oasis), and the Connor McGregors / Ronaldos of today, will be gamers in the VR world (e-sports leagues already eclipse viewing figures for most huge sports like NFL, etc).
I like the concept of the oasis, like a world which is un-fuckable with, just because it's VR doesn't mean you can just conjure up a dragon and go setting cities on fire, you need to pay to play or earn your credits in there, much like a crypto currency.
I'll be honest, I thought it was going to be visually amazing but the story / actual acting was going to be shit... was pleasantly surprised. The amount of references to games as well (obviously) and other films, was really cool. Think I would need to watch again to see more that I missed. |

Agreed with King, I think Django was utter tripe, so its all opinions. People slate Jurassic World, I love it, latest Star Wars, I enjoyed it. People look at films and go I like this/that/hate this etc... If its got action and shit, I'm in. |
I get that, sometimes action films are totally my thing, Terminator, T2, Ronin. They've also got a decent storyline.
Dialogue is something Tarrantino nails.
Original Drunken Master with Jackie Chan, action, story, plus dubbed translations out of synch - perferction lol

Warcraft 6/10
Surprisingly un-awful. Yes, it's a film of a game, so the plot is mostly "fite", but it's decently acted, trots along at a good old pace with no slack, and the budget is all there on screen.
The CGI and live action mesh isn't seamless, and the ending is annoying given that there's unlikely to be a sequel as it absolutely bombed in the US. But Pacific Rim cost more and did worse, so you never know.
Don't go in with any expectations and it's an enjoyable enough way to squander a couple of precious, irretrievable hours of your short life. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Han solo 6/10
I often find main actress in star wars attractive.
Daisy Ridley in last jedi, and Emilia Clarke in this film. I became a fan of Emilia Clarke . Watched videos of her and noticed she acts very differently in various films. Young Han looked a little bit like Leonardo DiCaprio, but I thought his acting was good too(he doesn't look similar to original Han as critical comments says though). There are many reviews which didn't like this film, but I enjoyed this watching. Maybe because I'm not a core SW fan, and wanted to watch a simple action film today.
Personally I want to see Emilia Clarke plays in other SW films in the future just because I became a fan of her, and it looks like I can expect it ____________________ 2020 Touring Serow 250
