Talkie Tuesday: Ibiza

 

"We are going to party all night!" 

Hello everyone!

In a slight departure for me I have a different movie review for you tonight, and I say departure because normally I don't touch movies like these.

I mean, I can see the appeal of them for large market audiences, but the style has just never suited me and probably never will, if I'm being honest.

However, a good friend of mine recommended I watch it, specifically for Richard Madden, so I was like, you know what, okay, what have I got to lose, really?

Nothing much, because at the end of the experiment this is the kind of movie where you turn your brains off and end up hopefully laughing some while you're at it! Which in essence makes it a little bit similar to what Hallmark puts out, actually.

Now THERE'S a thought!

So without further ado, let's just hop right into Ibiza, shall we?

Talkie Tuesday: Eternals

 

"When you love something, you protect it."

 

Hello everyone!

 

Well, we made it.

 

Four weeks and four Marvel movies later, we're now all caught up until No Way Home becomes readily available for streaming, since I'm still not comfortable just going to the cinema to see it in these times.

 

And man, it was a bumpy, bumpy ride!

 

It started off weak and then climbed until it peaked last week, so I was fully expecting this week's to knock it out of the park, except ... it didn't.

 

Not even a little bit.

 

It's disappointing because one would THINK that after so many years of making these movies Marvel would have the formula for success down pat, and yet it looks like that's not even remotely the case as they continue further into Phase Four.

 

They're doing okay with the TV shows, but the movies are often struggling.

 

Let's dive right into Eternals, shall we?

 

Talkie Tuesday: Cinderella

Hello everyone!

Back to my movie blog routine, seeing as I still have so many to go through, I hoarded quite a bit of them for my three week vacation (or was it almost a month?) and ended up sometimes watching two per night while I was on my own, because what better way can you imagine of relaxing than by settling down, all cozy, with your favourite snack and drink, the air smelling of salt and pine needles, and watching some of your favourite left-behind movies? 

You're right, sounds about perfect to me!

Which is why I did a lot of it, and after finishing with The Longest Ride, I went with not so much of an alphabetic list through my movies, but mostly through the ones I couldn't bear to wait for until I watched, and the next one of the list was Cinderella.

I had heard different reviews for this one prior to leaving for vacation, and since I didn't have any internet connection before seeing it myself, I could only rely on what I would personally feel, but I was inclined to hope for the best. After all, you can't mess up much with an original Disney Princess, right?
