2012 (2009)
As long as you turn off your brain it's a good fodder movie.
The fx really hasn't held up though.
3 Days to Kill (2014)
Not great, well not even good. Actually it's below average.
Kevin Costner does an alright job but he's just one man, and just one man can't save this film.
Sound and Fx are average at best.
Avatar (2009)
If there is anything going for Avatar, it's that even 11 years later it's still quite visually stunning which isn't to say its vfx are anything to write home about these days.
Acting is good I suppose. Sound and music on the other hand, it's done well, like really well.
Glory (1989)
With Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, and Andre Braugher, how could it not be a great film?
Not really familiar with US Civil War specifics so can't say much about the accuracy but nothing jumped out as wrong though.
Camera work is great by 1989 standards. Some of the effects don't quite hold up.
Acting and sound are also done quite well.
Especially in the final battle.
Quite enjoyable; Recommend.
San Andreas (2015)
Much like 2012, it's best to turn off your brain when watching this one.
Also don't look too close at the CGI. It's alright in several key moment but some of it looks straight out of the 90's. Everything else is serviceable.
Stargate: SG-1 S1-S10E12
Stargate: Atlantis S1-S3E16
Yes I did watch it all in proper order.
Boy am I glad I didn't just like, not watch it you know.
Bit rocky at the start for sure but it quickly found it's feet.
Started losing it around season 7 but then the whole Atlantis bit happened which brought this together again.
In terms of acting, sound, and all that good stuff. It's got the good and the terrible though overall it's well above average.
Gotta say though, the Asgard are awesome. Love those guys.
The Equalizer (2014)
This was really fun to watch. Story seemed alright.
The FX though, for 2014, they're pretty good. Not the best possible but certainly up there. Audio was also up there.
Denzel Washington did an excellent job as usual.
The Equalizer 2 (2018)
So watched it directly after the first. It's enjoyable but quite as much as the first.
The big thing is the fx quality just isn't at the same level of the first let alone 2018 level.
Real disappointment. Audio has a similar story though not quite as bad.
