IT(2017):Lazy Review


  I've been stuck thinking about what to post and I got nothing. But I remembered that I watched "IT" late December and I wasn't scared surprisingly. I mean,they were a couple of jump scares but overall nothing really scared me. It was a fun movie though and I see why it got a sequel announced and universal praise.

It's based of the first chapter of the Stephen King novel of the same name and I have read a couple of pages from  the book but I haven't finished it because I'm lazy and I procrastinate a lot(I haven't still finished reading a song of ice and fire).

  Set in the '90-somethings(I'm lazy don't eat me) in a town of something,something(I know,you're disappointed) a series of kids get missing and the adults of the town act like nothing's happening.

Bill Denbrough(that's right,I remembered his name) looses his brother as well. Billy and other kids in the town(including his friends) start to see their fears appear in front of them and it turns out it's all because of the creepy, scary and powerful clown Pennywise("IT")  who can conjure up scary illusions but gets beaten by the kids using stuff like a baseball bat for some weird reason.

  The actors are great in this and I think one of the reasons is because Hollywood actually allowed Kids to play Kids and not brooding 23 year olds pretending to be 15-ish. Everybody in this flick brought their A-game and it's one of the reasons why the film works out so well. All the actors kill it in comedy scenes as well as the dramatic "scary" ones. Pennywise is actually a pretty funny clown and I liked him for the most part.

  If you're a big fan of stranger things and you can't wait for season 3 I think this can be your 2hour plus fix for the mean time but,if you haven't seen stranger things and you like movies set in the past with great characters that also happens to be horror,then you should still watch it. It has very entertaining and amusing character interactions and dynamics. The kid actors do great especially the guy who plays Mike from stranger things,Finn Wolfhard. I'm sorry for being so lazy and not posting regularly, I really am.

IT is an entertaining  ride with great characters,great music and an enjoyable villain,Bill Skarsgård kills it(no pun intended) as Pennywise the friendly neighbour hood child abuser/serial killer. At the end of the day,IT is a very good film that will keep your eyes glued to the end because of it's Fun Characters and good story so check it out if you haven't already,I'll assume a lot of you have because it's been out for quite sometime now.

  I seriously don't know what to post about anymore I think there's something wrong with me. If you have any recommendations, you can hit me up on social media(top right) and I'll try my best to post what you want me to post!. Also,big thanks to all of you for sharing my blog to your family and friends,it means a lot. And I know I'm lazy,annoying and not the best writer but I love making these posts so I'll try to be better!!!.

Who Would Win? Batman Vs Spiderman

Written By
Okay before I start I'd like you all to know I am not being partial in any way at all. I had this argument with my friend Andrea a couple of days back and now I feel like sharing on who I think would win,but I realised they are two perspective 1-choosing a winner based on accomplishment 2-choosing a winner based on powers or strengths 1- this perspective is basically saying "oh look at this let's check out both characters accomplishments",they both have taken down a large amount of enemies ranging from smart villains to dumb ones,they've both faced foes that are big and strong. So it's only reasonable to think Batman would win here,not by a long shot though because Spiderman is a force to be reckoned with. Batman has basically done more important things,he has defeated Superman severally,dodged darkseid's omega beams,outsmarted braniac,I mean the man is a bit fluent in kryptonian and he knows several martial art skills and he's just a human......

Ōkami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki (Wolf Children)

Written By
Anime is one of the best mediums of story telling in recent years. It's diverse and offers a wide variety of genres, from comedy, action, thriller and romance. Most popular series are usually fast paced, exaggerated and action packed but, pretty much all the amazing anime films are usually grounded, slow and visually phenomenal and these are qualities this film taps into.                        Ōkami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki (Wolf Children) is honestly what great movies are all about. I remember seeing the trailer a few months back and I was so interested in seeing how it would play out, while I knew I was going to be in for an emotional roller coaster, I didn't quite expect it to start within the first thirty minutes of the film's screen time.                    The film's premise from the trailer was pretty simple, a young optimistic female college student called Hana falls for...

FANTASTIC BEASTS: THE CRIMES OF GRINDELWALD

Written By
      The first fantastic beast was truly a surprise to me,I never thought I ’d enjoy it as much as I did,especially with it being a Harry Potter(I love Harry Potter) prequel. The titular character Newt Scamander truly held his own as the face of this new franchise which impressed me because of how unique he was from Harry Potter himself. He wasn't some kind of chosen one or extremely special person, he was just a good guy who saw the best in everybeing which I felt made him stand out.  Set many years before the philosopher’s stone, the first film established a lot of cool stuff like the american wizarding world as well as fun new characters so,when they announced they would be a total of five films, I got scared. I mean,I expected a sequel but four sequels? That really felt like a stretch so before I saw this sequel,I kept thinking “do they really have enough story for five movies?” and now that I've seen this film, I feel like they might not.  ...
