Sharp Objects Episode 4

-



  With the revelation of  a recent personal tragedy Camille has faced while in the mental institution, it begs the question, what else will be revealed.
   The start of the episode has Detective Willis trying to bridge the communication gap with the Chief (Matt Craven). He believes that Camille knows something that she is not saying. He tells the chief that if he can get it from her, he will pass it a long, and he would appreciate if the same was done for him.
  Camille goes to lunch with Adora's (Patricia Clarkson) friends without her mother. This is because of her cut on her hand, according to her, her friends believe differently. When Camille gets to the restaurant all the friends, are asking who she believe killed the girls. It is thrown around that the Nash father was involved and John Keane as the other possibility.
     There is a strange scene towards the middle of the episode where Amma turns on the Tupac song "Dear Momma". What was strange to me was that it has not fit the tone of the series so far at all. Secondly, the all proper mother was into it.
  Later that day, Willis goes on a tour of murder scenes of the town from Camille. The trade was for history of the town, for on the record answers for the recent murders. By the end of the tour they both came to the conclusion that the victims knew their attackers. It was implied that Camille was raped in the woods by the football when she was in high school.  The will they or wont they of Detective Willis and Camille comes to be.
  With this episode it seems like more of the personalities of the characters are coming out, especially from Detective Willis and Adora. While it is a slow series, I really feel like the only way it will work is if things are revealed slowly.

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

The Ridiculous Six

   The Ridiculous Six is the start of the long contract that Adam Sandler signed with Netflix. It comes in the form of the spoof of the classic Magnificent 7.      In the story it surrounds White Knife (Adam Sandler) and his seemingly perfect life with the apache tribe. Things get a little messy when his long absent father (Nick Nolte) shows up and is subsequently kidnapped. Fifty thousand dollars is needed to set him free, so White Knife takes it upon himself to rob the terrible people of the West to get his father back. Along the way he finds out that he has many other brothers in the shape of Taylor Lautner, Terry Crews, Rob Schneider, Jorge Garcia, and Luke Wilson.      Through most of the later of Sandler's Carter you could at least count on his movies being entertaining. This film seemed choppy in places when it came to the story. None of the jokes seemed to really work. It's hard to say but Sandler has done so much better even in recent years. GRADE:F
