Oppenheimer review

Oppenheimer written and directed by Christopher Nolan and staring Cillian Murphy as J. Robert Oppenheimer. One of the most anticipated films of the year I obviously had to see it immediately when I could and damn Christopher Nolan delivers an absolute treat for a history and film nerds such as myself. Oppenheimer | Official Trailer Synopsis: American scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer has a pivotal role in changing the world as he leads a team of scientists to create the first nuclear weapons giving the humankind keys for destruction of life on earth as we know it. My thoughts: Do forgive me the flare for the dramatic in the synopsis, but as Christopher Nolan himself has said this is one of the most dramatic stories in the history of mankind. The movie has quite a lot of dialogue, but it does not feel too long or boring. The pacing is done well in my opinion and the story unlike usually with Nolan is told in a straight forward and almost old fashioned way, which I think works well for thi...

The Father film review

 Unfortunately it has been a while since my last post but, I am back here with a vengeance and a new review of a movie called The Father. Now this will be quite short and to the point as I don't have too much to say about this movie.   Synopsis:  The Father was directed by  Florian Zeller and it tells the story a father (Anthony Hopkins) dealing with dementia, he forgets where he is, who his daughter is and as he tries to make since of the changing circumstances he begins to doubt his loved ones, his own mind and even the fabric of reality. My Thoughts:  I will start by saying I really liked this film, now this is the kind of movie that I don't often watch, but I am glad I did. First of all I like how the story is told from the perspective of The Father played by Anthony Hopkins, as this gives us as the audience some perspective how it feels to have dementia or alzheimer's. The confusion that he feels becomes our confusion as well. You see his daughter played ex...

Top Gun: Maverick

 Hello I am back after such a long time with a new post and this time we are taking a look at Top Gun: Maverick staring Tom Cruise, Miles Teller and many more. Top Gun: Maverick is directed by Joseph Kosinski and was released 2022. Top Gun: Maverick | NEW Official Trailer (2022 Movie) Synopsis: After 30 years one of the top aviators of the Navy, Pete Mitchell aka. Maverick is working as a test pilot and dodging advancements that would ground him, when he is called to teach a new generation of elite pilots to fly a near impossible mission. My thoughts: Top Gun: Maverick is a solid action film with great action set peaces, some funny moments as well as some drama here and there. I myself don't really have nostalgia for the original movie as I wasn't around to watch it back then, but I do enjoy this one very much and I do think it is way better than the original one. Now I will say this film was an absolutely phenomenal movie theater experience when I saw it, the music, the sounds...
