Update Notice About Cinemortals

Hello mortals,

 First of all, I must apologize for my absence in the last weeks. Well, long story short, I was working very hard, and my laptop was not really an option to do anything with. It's all good now though, I have a brand new laptop, and I am unemployed once again. So as long as I'm not studying, I will be focusing on this blog, since the university will always be my main concern. 

Also, I would like to note that there will be a few changes in our layout soon. That will most likely be about our archive system generally. In this maintenance period, you may lose acces to some of our reviews. But don't worry mortals, we will get them back on in no time. We are planning to end this maintenance in a week at most, so you won't even notice their absence probably.

Thank you kindly for your patience dear mortals, keep loving the cinema!

Happiest Season, On It's Way

Image
  Happiest Season Premiere Details  image by CTMG, Inc  So you've also,probably heard about the upcoming "Happiest Season" starring Mackanzie Davis (Blade Runner) and Kristen Stewart (Twilight). The movie also have some other giant names in the cast as well. Dan Levy, Aubrey Plaza, Alison Brie, and others. This post is to give some further information about the movie.   The upcoming Happiest Season will premier on December 25th, in the holiday season, and on Hulu only.  Today, after Hulu's announcements, that got confirmed once again.  So, one thing, for me, is for sure, the movie will be extreme. Either extremely good, or the other way arround. That is, of course based on no solid lead, except for my bias about the director Duvall. You see, my adventure with her was always on edge. She is, indeed a great actress, but I can't be so sure about her director performance. In the end,  I loved her on "Ten Inch Hero" ( as Jen, 2007 romantic comedy) as an actre

Just Go With It (2011) Movie Review

No Surprises Here                                                                                                               image by Amazon.com, lnc. I am going to start my review by pointing out that I was truly curious when I saw Kidman in the cast. To be honest, I actually thought for a second that Adam Sandler was going to do a movie, which is not an Adam Sandler type of movie. Yet, that was not the case. "Just Go With It" is clearly a Sandler movie, which wasn't that much different than any other Sandler movie. Is that good or bad? Well, your call. The movie has a basic plot we all know, guy asks for a woman to be a stand-in for him to be with the pretty girl, therefore to be the happiest man. Pretty familiar right? Well the movie is basicly that, plus the jokes, the Sandler jokes. A quick pause here. To be perfectly clear, I just can't enjoy Adam Sandler movies at all. I find some of them offending, most of them meaningless,yet however, any of th

Role Models (2008) Movie Review

Image
Gives You A Good Time, While It Lasts                                                                                                              image by Amazon.com, lnc. A movie looks like a mainstream cheesy American comedy in the first look, "Role Models" actually offers quite a funny experience instead. It was actually nice to see a comedy movie that doesn't force you to laugh at meaningless car jokes, but instead makes you laugh, while succesfully transmitting it's main message, Do what you want to do with your life. Firstly, the plot is actually not bad at all. Even though it's just a comedy, character development mostly follows more of a drama pattern and grows with the story itself. Story expands a little too slow in some parts, a little too fast in some, but in the end, it expands and it doesn't feel forced so that's all good. Cast has real good acts in this comedy, but I will mention 2 names here. Banks and Mintz-Plasse, both show e

7500 (2019) Movie Review

Image
 Released in 2019 for Germany, and in 2020 for most of the world, 7500 is a thriller set in a Berlin-Paris flight. Our leading character Tobias Ellis (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is the co-pilot of the flight which then became a subject to a terrorist attack. The terrorist group without any guns, but with knives made out of broken glass, tries to seize control of the plane on air. The terrorist group do all that to "show what it's like to lose someone" to the western world, according to their own words. They are just a bunch of brainwashed pawn in the field, trying to "revenge" the deaths in middle east. One of this terrorists, is a guy named Vedat, who is only 18 and is the only one in his group who speaks at least a bit of english. In the movie, we witness the frightening hours on this doomed flight. Throughout the movie, we can hear 4 different languages being spoken; Turkish, Arabic, German, and English. With a 93 minutes lenght, the 7500 is for sure was an inster

The Wrong Missy (2020) Movie Review

Nothing Special, Nothing Fun                                                                                           image by Amazon.com, lnc. "The Wrong Missy" is a cheesy comedy, just like the ones before it. The new Netflix wanna-be comedy doesn't offer you much after the trailer, except for the same old story, first date gone wild type of romantic comedy. But is it worth a watch? First of all, I must mention right away that I just can't like the plot tricks so many comedies (first of all the Sandler ones) tried, and failed every time. Adding supernatural events, meaningless side characters and dialogues that make no sense whatsoever,just to make the comedy more goofy. It indeed is a safe option, but just doesn't make a good movie. How is that related to this one? Well let me explain. The film follows the chilling adventures of our couple, including but not limited to, fighting sharks. Our characters are more of immortal joke machines than a funn
