The Disaster Artist and I give it 4/4 stars! It was fantastic--so funny and poignant. And you don't need to have seen The Room to appreciate it.

I just saw the Post. It was really good. Meryl Streep was exceptional and so was Tom Hanks. They really captured the mood.

I just saw 3 Billboards. Fran was great as the main character. Woody Harrilson really captured what a small town police chief would act like. I would rank those 2 as 8's. Also, the supporting cast really captured what a small town would be like. It had their bigots, their good town folks and both good and bad police.

The Shack (2017)

Starring Sam Worthington and Octavia Spencer.

10 out 10 Stars

This movie was brilliantly made. It makes you feel so many emotions. Anger, love, sadness and hope. It is a real eye opening movie that makes you think and wonder.

The cast is amazing. I adore Octavia Spencer to begin with.

I saw Thor Ragnarok a few days ago. I'm not normally into superhero movies but it was really funny and grabbed my attention. I haven't seen the second Thor movie but I did see the first one.

In The Name of The King!

I rate it 7.5
The movie is supposed to be great for me if they added screenwriter's reak finishing touch. I've waited that Fatmer would be known King to all and woukd have proper coronation but it only ended when the villain died.

The last movie I saw was Lord of the Rings , the fellowship of the ring and I absolutely enjoy the story and the characters are exciting and emotional haunting in a sort of way . All lord of the ring movies are good.

I rate it 10

Hello everyone. I’m new in these parts. I r just seen Valerian and the city of a thousand planets.

The lead actors are sadly unbelievable and there was a sense that I was missing something.

A skinny late teen, early 20's supposed soldier fell through several floors and was unscathed. Give me a break.

There was an unease that is missed the background for these characters.

The story didn't flow for me.

It was a shame as the visuals were stunning.

A Cute for Wellness. It's a strange movie and there's a lot of huge leeches.The doctor farm leeches inside the institution. And they let it inside the patients bodies. SCARY!!! But there a little love story on it. Not bad.

I saw the shape of water and I must say the creature was very cool to look at but the bad guy was so so over the top, he was a bully and so he bullied others. Also the relationship between the woman and the creature was thought provoking as she could feel such love for it but at the same time it couldn't love her the same way. Spoilers, I'm referring to a moment when the women "sings" in a imaginary dance sequence and while shes waxing poetic the creature was peeling hard boiled egg. 4 out of 5 stars

Latest Review: The Polygrapher by Dohn Jagster (Pseudonym)

I saw "The Last Jedi" and it was okay. The scene with Yoda kind of ruined it for me, though. It was a little too campy. There was no resolution to Rey's parentage. Skywalker was too earnest. Ren was too emo. I'd say 7/10.

I watched a Nigerian movie, titled: "THE VISIT" the movie was bordered mostly on relationship as a couple, two couples cohabiting in the same compound, one living a very strict and patterned lifestyle, while the other take life as it comes, this making the first to look down on the latter,in the long run secrets were dugg up among those couples, and the well patterned couple were found with lot of secrets that will keep there marriage broken forever.

Latest Review: The Arrow That Flies By Day by John Servant

The last movie I watched is the Maze Runner: The Death Cure. I actually don't have a plan to watch the movie since I already read the book (Although it's like ages ago). It's a lame day and I don't even have a plan to take a bath, when my bestfriends texted me that they want to watch the movie! And so I ended up watching it.

Although, it differs on some part from the book, I enjoyed it!

One of my bestfriend? Well, he cannot stop whining about the last part of the movie! :D
