The Green Inferno

-

  These kind of movies are not my favorite kind of movies to watch but I do I have made it through the Hostile films but sad to say I have never seen Cabin Fever film. They all have one thing in common, excessive gore. Having said this going into this film I did believe that it was was going to be a lot worse than it actually was.
   The story centers around the character of Justine and how she gets "inspired" to join her college activist group. They take a trip down to South America to try and save the Amazon rain forest.  Once they get there they do some protesting and get deported back but on the way back trouble with the plane gets them stranded in the jungle where they are kidnapped by a cannibal tribe.
   To me this film really felt like its sole purpose was to gross the viewer out. It is a typical Eli Roth film, lots of blood, cliche filled story. I predicted everything that would happen the whole film.

Unfriended: Dark Web

    I would be the first to admit, when the original "Unfriended" dropped in 2014, I was not expecting to enjoy it. I was pleasantly surprised with what I saw. I always thought though, there is no need to make a sequel. Alas.. we fast forward to 2018, and there is a sequel.     The story revolves around Matias, who finds a great laptop, in his local internet cafe's lost and found. Since it has been there for weeks, he takes it. Later that night, while playing a game night over Skype, he begins to discover some terrible things.    One of the problems that plagued both of the films was the acting. In most of these cases, the actors from these films, do not have a lot of experience. It unfortunately, caries over to this film. When the story got to the climax, the line delivery got a little rough.    What really worked for the first one, was essentially, everyone was a terrible person. As the story progresses, you find out the terrible things that they have done. This

Triple 9

     When it comes to cop films, for the most part, I tend to be a huge fan. When this came out, I was not very sure what to expect from it because there was such little press for it.     A professional group of thieves lead by Michael Atwood (Chiwetel Ejiofor) does the biding of Irina Vlaslov ( Kate Winslet). The guys want out of her buiding, but her being a big player in the Russian mafia, she gets what she wants. She drags the crew into a final heist with a huge payoff, what could possibly go wrong?        The biggest thing that hurt this film was the scope was so huge for this film with how many characters it has. It is hard to care or, for that matter get to know any Of the characters when the time spent with them is so short. On top of that, this film does not go in any new directions for the crime thrillers. I feel like if they may have added twenty to thirty minutes to get to know all the characters it may have added an edge it doesn't quite have. GRADE:C
