6.0 22 July

Interesting and tough to watch at times but also feels a bit exploitative as there was already made another movie about this earlier in 2018 (in Norwegian). Everyone speaking english also kind of kills the authenticity of it for me but I was surprised to learn that all the characters are real people (other than Breivik).

 

6.0 Halloween

Why does this movie get SUCH good reviews? Like, I did enjoy it and all but it was just very much a typical slasher film. It was full of plot holes and just very stereotypical in every way which is fine but I was really expecting something different given the reviews lol.

8.5 The Spy Who Dumped Me

I was expecting this to be utter sh*t but I was really pleasantly surprised by how funny this is (given that you like this sort of humour). A bit OTT at times but enjoyable still even if it's very predictable at often times. Kate McKinnon is really funny and I'm not sure the movie would have worked as well without her.

9.8 120 BPM

6.4 My Golden Days

3.7 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

 

All had a 2018 UK release.

 

Three Billboards was the most problematic and disappointing film I've seen in a while. Only Frances McDormand's performance prevented it getting a poor-but-not-terrible score.

Not the best run.

1.0 Crazy Rich Asians

Seriously this might be one of the most overhyped and terrible movies I've seen all year lol. It was super stiff, awkward and just felt unrealistic as hell. Didn't connect to any of the super OTT characters and the acting was just not good at all. So confused as to why this garnered such great reviews.

Good for what it is, even if it is just a predictably generic slasher. The biggest scare was the wardrobe scene but that was in the trailers so that was a shame :(

3.5 The Nun

Terrible use of a great and scary concept. The Nun / Valak is probably the creepiest horror monster I've seen but this movie was just quite ... disappointing. Cheap scares and flimsy plot. NEXT.

 

9.0 Searching

I really enjoyed this one because while the plot was maybe not too complex the use of computer and phone screens as the cameras in this movie is just amazing and it (mostly) works perfectly! Sure there's parts where it's like "eh, why would he be doing that though" but then again not everyone uses their computer like i do lol. Loved it!

09.0 The Quake (Norwegian: “Skjelvet”)

A really good follow-up to the 11/10 2016 disaster movie “The Wave” which was probably my favorite movie of 2016. The cast is great, the special effects amazing and the tension had me at the edge of the seat the whole time! Bit bummed at how they treat

my girl Idun (by killing her off UGH)

but other than that a really good movie!

10.0 Ralph Breaks the Internet

My only 10 for 2018 so far doesnt come until technically 2019 because I only just saw it yesterday. Wow what a movie. Best animation I have seen in a LONG time and all the cameos and references were amazing. The princesses getting their redemption was also so satisfying and the overall message was so clear and empowering especially to young girls who have maybe been getting shown the wrong messages for so long in these princess movies. I love this movie so damn much! YESSS

04.0

Extinction.

The idea and the twist were clever. It's nice to see the different point of view of the whole humans v robots thing. HOWEVER, the execution was terrible. Acting was horrible, characters (especially the whiny non-stop crying stupid children I would've had an urge to push off the balcony as soon as the whole invasion started if I were their parent - I don't understand why anyone would design a robot child because they would be in that shitty moody teenager/stupid 8 year old stage foreverrrrrrrr) - not likeable and beyond basic. It seemed like the script was written by a 12 year old, there were plot holes and things that didn't quite make much sense. My initial score was 3.0 until that twist came along but goddamnit it's hard to see past the bad things in this movie. Which is basically 80% of it.
