Review: Attack The Block (2011)

Rating: 9.5 of 10

Once you've reeled yourself from Star Wars: The Force Awakens fever, let's take a moment to look at a previous starring role by one of its star, John Boyega (or Finn in The Force Awakens), in 2011′s Attack The Block.

Alternatively, you could also check out the incredible movie in which General Hux (Domhnall Gleeson) and Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) got to hang around with their very own droid (pun very much intended) in Ex Machina, reviewed previously here at 9.0 rating (I tell ya, these are all awesome films).

(John Boyega in Attack The Block, and Domhnall Gleeson and Oscar Isaac in Ex Machina, respectively)

But now here’s the review for Attack The Block. Can I say enough good things about Attack the Block? No I can't, because it's absolutely brilliant.

Attack the Block, brought to you by the guys behind Hot Fuzz, tells the story about a gang of kids in South London who suddenly find that their neighbourhood was being attacked by aliens from outer space. Then they do the only thing that they know: fight for their 'hood.

Attack The Block is awesome, there’s no need to downplay that. It’s definitely a popcorn movie, but it’s a really, really good one. Tense and breathless, Attack The Block has everything you want from an action/thriller film. Littered with bikes, baseball bats, and fireworks, it’s definitely not a conventional one--but those facts by no means reflect its adrenaline level. It has some quick bloody scenes, so viewer discretion is advised. The lead character Moses (John Boyega) was especially brilliantly acted, but the movie somehow managed to make all the characters relatable even though they were basically criminals. Almost atmospheric in their choice of neighbourhood, Attack the Block also has great soundtrack (by Basement Jaxx) and visuals, and I especially loved the simple yet effective design of the aliens.

TL;DR Intense, unpredictable and unique, this movie is a hidden gem and goes to show that big budget is not necessary to make good sci-fi action.

Review: Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

Rating: 9.5 of 10

Finally, it's time for Star Wars: The Force Awakens (TFA for short)! I'll try to keep this review vague because I don't want to delve into any spoiler, but first, let's talk about how this is an actual NEW Star Wars movie! I was meh for the prequels (and did not see them on the theaters either), and wasn't alive yet for the original trilogy so I never experienced what the hype felt like. When I went for TFA, I couldn’t shake a jarring feeling when the theater darkened, the stars and the title font appeared, then the crawl text came into view and I read it and it's a text I haven't read before. My mind couldn’t comprehend that it was a new Star Wars movie I was watching, and I can't imagine I'm the only one who felt that way, so it goes to show how important it was for this movie to be good (arguably we could also say that about the prequels, and we lived through them, so take that as you will). Of course, there were the Expanded Universe and animated series, and while they're good (I particularly kept hearing about how good The Clone Wars was), they're not the same. This time, it's a cinematic movie, and everyone is excited.

One thing I could say about TFA is that it's definitely a Star Wars movie. It wasn't like how JJ Abrams tried to "translate" Star Trek from the 60's to 00's; TFA is Star Wars. It's more Star Wars than what the prequels ever hoped to be. I might even go as far as saying that it does have all the good, but also bad, of the originals, but for the most part it's a very entertaining and well-executed movie.

TFA is basically a homage to the originals, and that's the only way for any Star Wars sequel can be done, honestly. The cast and crew are fans too, and they can't just ignore the huge legacy of the franchise. And they did it brilliantly, I say. In TFA, Jedi had evolved into a myth, in the same way that Star Wars had lived and grown in cultural conciousness throught these years. However, TFA very obviously drew its DNA from the original trilogy. Depending on the person, it could be a good thing or a bad thing. Nostalgia is abound (not in a bad way) and you could basically pin point which traits in each new characters are like Han, Luke, Anakin, etc. I myself didn't mind, because it wasn't like A New Hope (or as some others would call it, simply Star Wars) had the most original story ever. But what’s most important for me, all the visual spectacle and world building that made the franchise so famous, were there too. The various aliens, the lived-in technology, the dog fights, the visually cool villains--even down to the cantina, and also the appearance of sand (not Tatooine), and ice (not Hoth), and green (not Endor) planet. There's a shot that I particularly liked; it was about the first time we see new character Rey (Daisy Ridley), in a long shot near a spaceship wreckage, and it was both beautiful and had amazing sense of scale. It was the moment I knew the movie wouldn't disappoint me for being Star Wars.

Rey, Finn (John Boyega), and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) are the new additions to this movie, and viewers won't have problem falling in love with them. Kylo Ren is especially interesting, psychologically, and I'd like to know more about him. The old characters too, namely Luke Skywalker, now General Leia Organa, and Han Solo are also worthy and natural addition to the story. And BB-8! I was a fan of R2-D2 and BB-8 is an excellent progeny of R2-D2, and an even cuter one. And oh, the movie is extremely funny. It had great comedic timing that don't interfere with the actual movie and it's very fun.

TL;DR A fun, hearty movie with great worldbuilding unique to Star Wars, this movie won't disappoint newly introduced viewers or old fans.

You know what I want? I want a series centered around teenage Phasma and Armitage Hux flying around the galaxy, getting into stupid situations and trying not to die. I want a series wear they go into Phasmas backstory and her life with the Scyre Clan. I want a series that goes into the danger hux was constantly in as a kid and the suffering he endured at the hands of his father. I want a series that shows Rae Sloane doing her best to keep these kids alive. I want a series that truly shows how the First Order came to be. All I want is lil armie and lil phasma ok?

HAPPY MAY 4TH YALL

look at him go

Vamos chorar um pouco amigos

Talvez você já tenha assistido uma das maiores franquias do mundo cinematográfico...

STAR WARS

Eu sei que vocês pensaram na Marvel, mas não dessa vez, só daqui algumas semanas.

Minha pessoa é fã de carteirinha dessa saga maravilhosa, que infelizmente teve seu fim no ano passado (2019).

A única coisa que eu tenho pra falar é que Ben Solo deserved better.

Comentários a parte (e lágrimas), a série conta com 11 filmes - três trilogias e dois spin off's -, além de várias séries animadas que conectam uma linha do tempo em volta da força e um nome: os Skywalker.

Tudo começa com um garotinho que pilotava speeders e que tinha uma força fora do comum. Aqui conhecemos o famoso Anakin, que viria a ser Darth Vader depois de problemas com churrasco.

Enfim...

Tudo pleno, maravilhoso. Pessoas morrem, são salvas, se apaixonam, arranjam um exército de clones, casamento secreto, padawans conhecem a força pessoalmente (Anakin?), Palpatine na verdade é o vilão (mas isso já era meio óbvio), corações partidos, lava, membros perdidos, famílias destruídas e início do Império.

Nosso amado jovem de tatooine conheceu a força e o amor, matou o amor e escolheu o lado sombrio. Mas não era o fim.

Padme Amidala, com toda a sua peculiar variedade se roupas, deu a luz aos gêmeos Skywalker antes de morrer, que logo foram separados.

Eles crescem plenos em diferentes sistemas, até que um dia a força decidi reuní-los para lutarem contra a ameaça do Império. Rola incesto (Eles não sabiam pelo amor de Deus), revelações (A paternidade pode nos surpreender), mais um casal, explosões e funerais (fiquei triste com você Luke). Os rebeldes ganharam, o império caiu e todos fizeram festa (menos o Luke, ele tava oculpado queimando o pai).

E finalmente, quando todo mundo acha que tá tudo bem... BOOM, primeira ordem, filhos perdidos, mais areia, outro cara do mal, sabres de luz, morte (Han descanse em paz), Millennium Falcon, neve, rebelião novamente, e uma ilha muito bonita infestada de porgs.

Deu ruim.

O cara mal é bonito e a última jedi tem uma estranha conexão com ele. Puta sortuda. Acontecem mais revelações, a garota foge, eles se encontram pessoalmente, matam mais gente, propostas são feitas e recusadas, Snoke morto de novo e Luke Skywalker da as caras novamente só pra morrer depois. Canalha.

Quando você pensa que acabou por aí, seu casal vai ficar junto e todos vão ser felizes pra sempre, mais uma bomba cai no seu colo. Mais pessoas importantes morrem, Snoke/Palpatine/Darth Sidius (Se decida homem) recussita, mudanças de lado, lutas épicas, mais ressureição, beijo e Reylo nunca mais.

Tô chorando aqui

E sim, meu nome é Rey, Rey Skywalker.

Acho que essa foi a maior postagem dessa página é provavelmente vocês perceberam que eu sou uma maníaca por Star Wars.

Queria pedir desculpas para os meus amigos e família, todas essa informações pesam no meu coração e me fazem chorar desesperadamente.

Bem, chegamos ao fim e a frase do dia é:

"Odeie areia em respeito aos mais fortes" Achkar, Emee (2020)

Falou.
