Inception Movie Review

Fosse wanted to watch Maze Runner, but he couldn't access his iTunes library. So Fosse, Philip and I watched Inception. And then I watched it again with Aarin right after. At 5am, I've seen it twice today.

A review of Inception (2010).

This movie ruined my day. It wrecked my brain more than Mud. I don't know what it means but I know it's too smart for me. It made me really mad, especially the second time, how all the pieces fit together so well. I only found 1 or 2 minor plot holes, and I like the movie enough that I really don't even care. Maybe most creative movie I've seen in my life, as far as story goes.

8/10.

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Movie Review

This goes hard.

Prince of Persia is one of my favorite game series, especially Sands of Time on GameCube. I found the movie for $3 at PawnAmerica and we watched it.

A review of Prince of Persia Sands of Time (2010) starring Jake Gyllenhaal and a girl that looks kinda like Kesha.

Pretty standard action movie. Like a lot of Disney movies, the CGI did not blend well with the scenery. Looked fake. Just because it's based on a game from 2003 doesn't mean it should look like one.

As most movies with time travel, it has some time related plot holes. It's not a big deal if you don't think too much.

It's funny cuz Jake Gyllenhaal does NOT look Persian at all. Kesha doesn't either. Alfred Molina somehow does, though?

3/10, it was just okay.

Scoob Movie Review

Fillmore County Journal after I watch Scoob.

A review of Scoob (2020).

I love Scooby Doo. I tried to convince Devon and Esther to watch Scoob with me this past week and we watched Wreck It Ralph instead. That was probably the right choice. Me and Pony just suffered through Scoob.

This isn't really a Scooby Doo story. You could replace the Scooby characters with entirely new characters and nothing would change. I thought Wreck It Ralph had some forced references, but at least they are video game related.

What does Simon Cowell have to do with Scooby Doo? The Mystery Gang takes a back seat to other Hanna Barbera characters I don't care about. And Ruth Bader Ginsburg. And Wonder Woman. And IKEA. It feels so forced. This movie isn't fun or funny.

2/10.

Jesus Revolution Movie Review

Jesus Christ by Leon Devenice

I felt bad for missing Jesus Revolution when it was showing in Harmony, and Kalie and Chloe wanted to see it too. Thus, Keri, Kalie, and Chloe went to the movies.

A review of Jesus Revolution (2023).

I almost cried. A popular Christian movie that is actually worth watching. There are 2 big themes. 1, everyone needs Jesus. Even hippies and druggies. God wants ALL PEOPLE to come to him. 2, God is the acting agent in the church. When church becomes about the preacher and not Jesus, you've lost sight.

And they actually proclaimed the gospel in the movie! Jesus isn't a tool we pull out when we need a personal boost in life, he's the king who died to save sinners.

6/10, really well done film.
