Ozark: The Beginning of the End (2022)
The Rebellious kid narrative is tiresome
There has been too many good show that are being ruined by the same rebellious kid plot. Ray Donovan, Power just to name a few from recent years. Now Jonah is going down this route, which his sister already had her turn in the previous seasons. Very disappointing first episode. Also really can't stand the ungrateful Ruth plotline either.
The Greatest Showman (2017)
A wonderful instant classic hated by the snobbish critics!
I, myself is not much of a writer, but often come to IMDB admire all the great writing in the review sections by other. After watching this film three times in the theaters, and reading the biased and pretentious review by the so called professional critics (completely opposite of user reviews), I just feel compelled to write an review while I don't even like musical.
Like many other user's review, ignore the critics, go see this instant classics! if you enjoy musicals (I'm not even a fan to normal musical), watching/listening to this would be heaven on Earth experience. Not only the songs are catch, but the lyrics are beautifully written specifically for every scene in the movie.
If you enjoy great cinematography like I do, you can appreciate every detail of the director's vision, and the editing of the film are so perfectly put together. I was awed from begging to the end even watching for the 3rd time.
If you enjoy a good romance or drama, you will not be disappointed. The story is quite simple, but there are differences when a good story teller vs a bad one. Even though this is considered a musical, the director made this movie's transition from beginning to the end seemingly smooth, you almost forget its a musical. Every song or speech starts naturally. Casting and acting are perfect in every way. From the first second of the film, you can feel the intensity and passion from Hugh Jackman. Every supporting actors are equally good.
In summary, it doesn't matter if you are a man or woman, old or young, every one can truly enjoy this! Every time I watched this, I hear voices behind me say this was the best movie they've seen in a long time. It is just too underrated. In this age, everything has to be big explosion or crazy CGI from a comic book story. There are just not many movies that make you feel good while still put on a spectacular show!
