Garbage Movie

Scream 7 is a complete disaster; the screenwriter must have had their brain slammed in a door. It's a pile of garbage, disgusting to watch. 2. Sidney is a complete idiot. He keeps saying he's protecting his daughter, but he never says a word, withholds all information, and even when the killer is at their doorstep, he pretends to be dead. He's like a stupid mother sending her own daughter to her death. 3. The villain just grabs a broken knife and starts killing indiscriminately. Bystanders are like they're blind, the police are like they're dead, and the main characters are like they have no brains. Does the screenwriter think the audience is stupid? 4. After defeating the killer, they don't finish them off, they just run away. They're insane, afraid the villain won't die, so they deliberately give them their heads. It makes you want to smash the screen. 5. And they even try to sell nostalgia! You trashy production team have ruined nostalgia. Besides fooling old fans and making money, it's utterly useless. 6. The entire film is illogical, utterly stupid, relies solely on shouting for suspense, and its plot twists are all far-fetched. It's the biggest disgrace in the series, a pure disaster. 7. In conclusion: Did the person who made this rubbish have a screw loose? A waste of time and life; after watching it, all I want to say is, "What a stupid piece of crap!"

Training an iron bladder

It's like a blind box game. I heard it's adapted from a game, and the Letterboxed rating is pretty high, so I just went for it. I didn't even watch the trailer, so I'm really confused. I roughly know the main quest flow, but I don't understand the world view at all. Why is this data so important? (Maybe I missed it when I went to the bathroom.) The visuals and setting are very distinctive, and it feels similar to Ash from a while ago. It's definitely ecchi, but there's no explanation; it's all just mental pollution. But you could say that's just how it is (??) Two hours was really unnecessary. Except for one hour when my bladder was about to burst and I was about to leave, and the last ten minutes which were a bit of a treat, the rest of the time was just a waste of time. The stage was so small that it was like a burial, there really wasn't much room for the performance. And the male lead's self-rescue was basically non-existent, he was just biting the air the whole time. Everyone was a mystery person. If they had explained things earlier, the audience wouldn't have been so confused along with the protagonist. But I do really want to play games; watching a blood-soaked sea of ​​blood on a big screen would be quite thrilling. In the end, it always ended up like this, and I don't know if it was due to lack of oxygen, blood loss, claustrophobia, or trauma that led to mental illness. Finally, it rusted into Silent Hill, a bloody mess where nothing could be seen clearly, but that part was the most thrilling. The male lead looks like an East Asian Gosling; the glass is cracked like a tree of life.

War Machine

Mar 31, 2026 Action / Sci-Fi

The alien robots are too weak, the protagonist is too powerful.

A popcorn movie, the first half is alright: the camaraderie between comrades, the trauma of war, and wilderness survival have the realism of a hardcore military film. The alien robots have a very futuristic design when they first appear, and the chase and battle in the jungle is intense, with all sorts of technology on display. But the second half is a bit idiotic—the protagonist, unarmed and without even a gun, manages to defeat the invading alien robots with just an excavator, which is absurd. If the film had explored themes of brotherhood, war trauma, and military honor, it could have been a profound work. However, it ultimately relied solely on the protagonist's halo and individual heroism, dragging the film down to a purely commercial, action-packed spectacle.

The story revolves around a couple who were once pirates. They've retired from their life of crime and are living a peaceful, anonymous life on a Caribbean island. This tranquility is shattered when their former pirate captain and his crew track them down, kidnapping the heroine's husband and storming into their home. As a once feared female pirate, the heroine is forced to reclaim her old skills, using her formidable strength and courage to fight the pirate gang to the death. Ultimately, she defeats her enemies, rescues her husband, protects her young child and sister-in-law, and safeguards her hard-won home. What moved me most after watching *Cliffhanger* was the struggle between "letting go" and "reclaiming." Set on a 19th-century Caribbean island, the film uses sharp action sequences to explore the boundaries of a mother and wife. The action scenes are a highlight, fast-paced and cleverly designed, not just a simple display of violence, but imbued with the characters' emotions and wisdom. The heroine's character is the soul of the entire film. She was once a renowned female pirate, but after shedding her sharp edge, she became a gentle wife and mother. Yet, when her family faced danger, she instantly picked up her weapon again, each strike imbued with unwavering resolve to protect. Without outside help, relying solely on her personal strength and familiarity with her homeland, she set traps and confronted enemies head-on, defeating the ferocious pirate gangs one by one. What moved me most was the look in her eyes during battle—a look that reflected both the helplessness of the past and the unwavering devotion to her family. When the last pirate was defeated, she held her child, protected her sister-in-law, and met her returning husband's gaze. At that moment, I suddenly understood: the so-called "retirement" is never about forgetting one's skills, but about willingly sheathing one's blade to protect loved ones; and when loved ones are in danger, that blade becomes the strongest armor. This film is not just a thrilling action movie; it uses a female pirate's choice to interpret the meaning of "family." It tells us that ordinary happiness is worth protecting with all our might, and the courage to stand up for love is always the most powerful.

In the Blink of an Eyev

Mar 31, 2026 Drama

In the blink of an eye: A mediocre allegory of fragmented time and space.

Andrew Stanton's *Blink* is ambitious, attempting to explore the eternal connection between life, memory, and human emotion through three storylines spanning millennia: prehistoric, modern, and future. However, the grand themes fail to translate into a moving narrative. Limited by a low budget, the prehistoric landscapes feel cheap, and the science fiction elements lack originality. More fatally, the script itself is hollow and pale; the modern-day romance is mediocre and predictable, the characters are one-dimensional, and the emotional manipulation feels contrived and saccharine, far less natural and genuine than Pixar's works. Although Kate McKinnon's performance is restrained and nuanced, it cannot mask the overall dullness. The film is like an over-packaged, mediocre story, possessing the structural ambition of *Cloud Atlas* but failing to skillfully integrate the fragments, ultimately leaving only a broken timeline and a diluted theme.

She must kill that summer named Brat.

The concept is truly intriguing. Viewers initially expected the plot to unfold in the direction of overcoming numerous obstacles amidst chaos and embarking on a crazy "brat tour party." However, the director (or perhaps the screenwriter, or even the creators associated with Charli) cleverly exploited the realistic expectations of the audience (especially fans), meticulously crafting a sense of astonishment that remained unresolved until the very end. The film, through its parallel universe setting linked to reality, profoundly illustrates how massive online traffic can destroy a person's beliefs, turning them into a generic, template-like product. Seeing this, I suddenly recalled a scene from the promotional video: Charli, dressed in her signature sexy lingerie, walks into a dark film studio filled with dolls identical to her, and finally, an even more "attractive" "Charli" emerges. After watching it, it all made sense. Unfortunately, the director's skills were lacking, and the pacing was unsatisfactory, resulting in a poor overall viewing experience. However, the concept design was absolutely perfect. She must kill the brat summer

Super Bowl LX Halftime Show

Mar 31, 2026 Musical / Dance

The most politicized Super Bowl halftime show ever:

The most politicized Super Bowl halftime show ever: Just as Marquez said in his 1982 speech: "The challenge we (Latin America) face is the lack of a regular means to make our lives believable. Friends, that's the root of our loneliness." The Bad Bunny's performance featured a Puerto Rican hut on the grass, a power outage in Puerto Rico, and a shift in his image—no longer singing "Born in the USA" like Shakira and Jlo, no longer speaking his mother tongue and refusing to sing in English, no longer pursuing the American Dream. Those few telephone poles represented the infrastructure ruins of the imperial frontier (Puerto Rico). From childhood, nestled beside his parents, to the Grammys, waving the Latin American flag, everything was a betrayal of the American Dream on the imperial frontier, a possible rejection of translation. Just as kung fu isn't kung fu if it's not cool, and anime isn't just consumerist garbage if it's not juvenile, fantastical, and doesn't aspire to save the world, the Bad Bunny's Puerto Rican cultural show, by not addressing the theme of Macondo being swept away by a hurricane in Marquez's novel, wasn't Latin culture.

This might be the biggest disagreement I've ever had with Douban (a Chinese movie review site)

This might be the biggest disagreement I've ever had with Douban (a Chinese movie review site). Other reviews called it a terrible film, but I loved it! This dark comedy doesn't have a plot that makes you laugh out loud, but it tells a story that's easy to get into: a clichéd main plot, but with some unexpected twists and turns, and a series of interesting plot twists in the ending, finally concluding with a calm yet deafening satire. It was a direction and outcome I never imagined before entering the theater! The protagonist has a strong aura of invincibility in the beginning, and the investigation and law enforcement departments are completely incompetent. Upon closer inspection, there are many plot holes, but as I watched, I stopped caring about them. Life is full of coincidences, and movies weave them together to tell a story and make me happy—what's wrong with that?

Reversing for the sake of reversing

I finally understand the twist. Twists for the sake of twists are essentially just short dramas, the same formula used in those anthology series of the last decade or so, especially those anthology horror films: a so-called main plot, a few ideas, whether plausible or not, haphazardly churned out, and when the story runs out of steam, there's no need to think about what to do; just move on to the next story, piecing together 80 minutes, and then hastily putting together an ending for the so-called main plot. This work follows the same formula: first, a ten- or twenty-minute workplace drama, then a Robinson Crusoe story that has little to do with what came before, using the twist to extend the runtime for another twenty minutes, and then it starts to run out of steam. Of course, you could argue that the foreshadowing of the knife was quite good, but anyway, it just throws in another ridiculous twist, stumbles into the third act, and then cobbles together another ten minutes of a completely disconnected house-breakup fight, and that's it. If each segment were done like the one in *VHS*, with completely different actors performing their own short plays, ensuring a few people die in each play, enough to reach 90 minutes, then tickets would sell. Workplace bullying? American slashing line? New female power? Imagine what you want—how wonderful, right? Just the genital-cutting scene alone could support a bunch of movie analysis and marketing accounts.

Providing a sense of pleasure is a professional virtue of genre films.

"Los Angeles Heist" is a high-quality film. It retains the hardcore car chases of classic crime action films while also reflecting contemporary characters and emotions. Chris Hemsworth's character, a thief, never harms anyone during his heists, adhering to a classic code of honor among thieves. His car chase with Barry Keown, with Hemsworth driving and Keown on a motorcycle, is a thrilling spectacle of classic action films, exhilarating and high-class. In a conversation between Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo, the mention of cars and action star Steve McQueen, along with his famous crime action film "Bullet," subtly acknowledges the film's car chase theme. Like McQueen, Hemsworth also has a fondness for a green car, which serves as a key prop in the film, symbolizing loyalty and camaraderie. Beyond the action, the characters and emotions resonate strongly with the present. The thieves are anxious and insecure; the police are systematically squeezed by their superiors and subordinates; the female executive at the insurance company, after 11 years, is filled with age anxiety, her hopes of being nominated as a partner almost dashed. These characters, with different stances but consistent emotions, not only accurately depict the pervasive anxiety of today's apathetic society but also provide a reasonable and realistic motivation for the intersecting plots. The ending they create is a kind of rebellion against the contemporary social structure and the side effects of modernity, which is very satisfying to watch. The opening cityscape is a common opening for urban crime films, but this film uses a reflection, a slightly distorted Los Angeles skyline, which actually has an additional layer of meaning, highlighting the characters' inner unease. It's not just a cityscape, but also an externalization of their inner world. Accompanied by an uplifting, inspirational narration, the contrast is maximized. The color palette is realistic and cold, like "Heat," with blue as the base color. After watching, you'll find that the entire film's atmosphere is thoroughly implemented: practicing retro crime film aesthetics while also having a strong contemporary feel. Providing a thrill is a professional virtue of genre films, and films like "Los Angeles Heist," which organically combine social emotions, find new vitality for genre films by transcending genre boundaries. It's both retro and bursting with fresh, vibrant energy.

GOAT

The film features many familiar faces—the physically imposing, favored "Horsemane King" is undoubtedly LeBron James; the "Rhino" who screens for Curry and is ejected in the Finals is Draymond Green; the "Black Panther" who loves one-on-one play but never wins a championship is probably Kevin Durant; and the number one draft pick who remained relatively unknown is likely Andrew Wiggins. As for the short, three-point-savvy, always underestimated, mouthguard-biting GOAT who says goodnight to his opponent after a game-winning shot, who else could it be but Stephen Curry himself? As an animated film, this movie is worth about a 7 out of 10. The visuals and music are good, but the story, like all sports films, is formulaic. However, if you're a Warriors fan, you'll know: this seemingly ordinary, formulaic story actually happened in real life. An underdog, small player did indeed win a championship, and not 1, not 2, not 3… he changed basketball and became a legend. This seemingly ordinary story will remind you of every Warriors game you've watched over the past decade, every basket, every injury, every defeat, and every victory. By the end of the movie, I was like Wang Meng's commentary during the 2022 NBA Finals—"Where is Curry? Curry is already in tears!"
