Lord Rahl's Cinematic Review Repository
I have written a lot of movie reviews over the years since Facebook added the Flixster app to rate and review movies. After writing my most recent, I thought I might have my own thread in here for others to read my reviews and comment on them. What I mean by that is I wish for y'all to understand just how good my taste in movies is and why they're superior to yours. What I mean by that is I am a pretentious.
Other than the bombardment of reviews that I'll post shortly after beginning this thread, I'll most likely post reviews semi-regularly. I don't go to see movies too often because I don't like spending my hard-earned money on movies that I don't think are going to be excellent (in most cases). Some things to understand about me before reading my reviews is I like movie that are truly good movies as well as those that are truly bad. Let's be honest with ourselves. We men (well, some of us are men) don't watch Death Wish 3 or buy The Expendables because they're actually good movies. We go to see them because they'll be fun to watch. I can watch bad movies and enjoy them from time to time but usually I prefer a movie that's actually good. That primarily requires the plot to make sense and for the movie to have well written dialogue. Unfortunately, it seems like more and more movies have terrible plots and poor dialogue. Some of you may know that I love Star Trek so don't be shocked if I have a favorable bias for movies in the franchise. I also have an obsession with Nicolas Cage. He's a god among actors and for all of you who think he's one of the worst actors to exist...you're all idiots. Enough about that.
Just so y'all know, my reviews won't be written like most professional reviews. They're usually more rants than anything else unless I really liked the movie where I'll then give it more respect when reviewing it. I'll be adding my own personality into what I write. Also, some of my reviews WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS so read at your own risk. If anyone would like for me to post a review to a movie that I have saved then feel free to ask if I have one. I welcome any movie talk, actually.
