Dear readers
I have a confession. When it comes to general reviewing movies I’m not the best source.
I’m very two sided. Take Jigsaw for example. I knew it was going to be bad. I went anyways. I got my oversized soda and sat in my favorite seat. I like to sit towards the front where the screen hovers over me. If I can sit behind a handicap row to put up my feet I will (assuming no one is using that row of course) otherwise I prefer the same row on the edge. What’s running through my mind is not how bad this movie was going to be but how excited I am to be at a matinee.
Sure I can tell you how great of Moonlight turned out to be. I did come out saying it would win best picture. There are movies that people love that I could not stand. Can someone please explain to me why Beauty & The Beast remake is good? Same with La La Land. I will never like these movies. However there are bad movies that I really liked. I thought American Assassin was an awesome movie and laughed my butt off watching Going in Style.
I do see a lot of movies. There are movies I will never miss, like the 007 films. I will see Star Wars because I like an event film. I will continue to see films like Jigsaw because I enjoy going to the movies, all the more with people.
Does any of that stop me from putting my opinion out there? No. Will it? Never. I can tell you why I liked or disliked a movie. Once I get to know you I take pride in being able to customize film recommendations.
I’ll see you at the movies!
Will
