Tommy boy. (this guy is a lot like me.š¤£) This Director was a student of psychology. An incredible story. About the love of the father and the legacy. This can teach you a lot of really important things to know in your life. With real implications. If you understand what youāre seeing that is. Brilliantly made. well shot. David spade and Chris Farley genuine BFF energy pores in to the movie in every scene.
 This knows that humor is the best way to teach. Look at the fools. Learn from them. Guess which one of the hobbits is in the movie?
This will be an overtime thing. But a lot of the reviews are going to come from the wonderful input that Iāve received in the best movie for the come up thread that I made. For everyone who has contributed. Thank you so much.
This is going to be my personal favorite. I am more than open to having suggestions given to me. So that I can make my review. This will be a list of all of my favorite movies.

 The main character seems inexplicably drunk for the entire film. This movie definately deals with nepotism as a topic. His lack of maturity does allow for quite the dynamic character that is very relatable to young men. Over the course of the film. He grows into the man that he always shouldāve been. He decides what heās going to be. Teaches about growth, maturity, and moderation. The constant struggle of the character is punctuated in some, creative ways.  By the end, thereās no way that you wouldnāt be on his side. It was a very inspirational film. But it didnāt take itself too seriously. Plenty of physical comedy. Some really good one-liners. Norm McDonald makes for an amazing drunk friend. Plus, it has one of the goofiest bus drivers youāll ever see.

If you didnāt like the ending to the book. But thought it was a good story. You would absolutely love this movie. Itās like they finished it. This has a magical air to it almost like the Princess bride.
This movie gives Mondego nothing At the end of it. Just like he deserves. While Mercedes gets to prove a deep love for Edmond. As opposed to other iterations. Visually stunning. Provocative soundtrack. Quotable. āIām a count, not a saint.ā
 The stories about true love. Itās about vengeance. But most importantly, itās about forgiveness. If youāve ever felt wronged. This movie will make you feel right.
Truly, one of the most magnificent stories Iāve ever seen.
Genesis rating
5 out of 5

Play this as you read.
 The english dub makes this much better with few exceptions. Not that the original audio isnāt incredible. But thereās just some sort of charm to it. The person who does the voice for Itto is incredible. While it also gives you just a touch of humor. Do you know those old dubs. They donāt really match the mouth. It makes what theyāre doing, and saying seem just slightly funny. Which you would think takes away from it. This only adds to the enjoyment.
Each movie gets better in the series. Until 4. This is no way detracts from number 5. Itās just 4 was the pinnacle. It was the best one. IMO
Some of the themes are. Honor, loyalty, & vengeance.
Itās also a very quotable movie
āShow me your strongest manā
āJuneiā
To this day, if I name a plant Junei. My friends know that thing is doomed to die horribly. The martial arts are real. Such a deep respect did the Director have for the Manga the story was based from. That, after the first movie, even though it was a masterpiece. He didnāt think it was good enough. He then went to Japan to study this sword style. Im not saying there isnāt some exaggerations in the movements. It is a movie. But legitimately they are displaying arts of shinobi, bushido, & Sword craft. This makes it infinitely more pleasing to watch.
They use other things that were actual concepts. Such as the road sign. Something I still use to this day because of this movie. The closest we have to something like that now is homeless code.
Thereās something so pure about an assassin that is incorruptible. Once he has been paid his fee. And he has agreed to kill someone. You could offer this man all the money on the Earth. Nothing would stop him from completing his assignment.
 The constant theme of father and son. The bond they share. The last of their family line. Is deeply touching. As soaked in blood as the story is. What it really is about. Is earning back the honor that was stolen from his family and son. If his mission was completed, his son would be free and clear to walk Japan, as a free man.
This was also the best time in warfare I would say. Purely in my opinion. I think that guns & explosives cheapen the fight. They let you pretend you didnāt do what you did. Back then, men had to fight with blades. They needed to look each other in the eye. Explosives existed, but they were very rare and expensive. Which meant that you could be very creative and innovative, and show people that for the first time. It just makes for the most interesting Warcraft in my opinion.
Objectively we will always be on his side. Because he was used as a scapegoat to further someones selfish aim. What could be more compassionate than a father defending his son from a lie & murder.
This integrates themes of Buddhism directly into their existence. It is a part of their life. He is a practicing Buddhist. He had a shrine in his home.
This was so well written back in the day. That even the content based off of this comic book. Will be able to teach you things.
ā I guess I just wish the world was different. But a wish is only a wish.ā š
Scale of 1 to 5. S Masterpiece
Each movies Theme I ~vengeance II ~greed III ~the violence perpetuated against women IV ~Loyalty V ~The love between a father and son.
Warning. Japan was and still is different in some ways.

 I would give this a solid 4 out of five. Well written āWhere did the poop go?ā Very quotable film. Amazing cast
Stiller and black work really well together. It feels like thereās some definite camaraderie going on. Lotta funny scenes. A lot of good physical comedy.
They really talk about Innovation, creation, acceptance, and openness. How friendship can transcend the environment. How you can forget the people that kept you going until you were able to make it. Forgiveness. That would be the main theme of this film.
Do you like Ben Stiller or Jack Black at all? Odds are you will enjoy this film. Christopher Walken is the crazy guy!

This movie is breathtakingly beautiful. The subject matter is provocative and taboo.
The characters are charming & human.
 The entity is fascinating⦠This is a story about two brothers, coming together after a betrayal. To forgive each other. All while trapped in a pocket universe inside a God. A naughty God. The dialogue is powerful. But it doesnāt take it self so seriously that It canāt make you laugh.

Play the drums of Jumanji.
A provocative question. Would you like to play? This movie is about not taking something for granted. Itās about overcoming obstacles. Your in for some really fun time travel implications. Robin Williams manages to be a comedic gem as always. The orphans are charming and funny, because they are actually good actors. Not all child stars are. The creatures and monsters that come out of the game are very charming. They used a lot of practical effects. So while you can tell they arenāt real animals. Thereās some bad CGI. Itās still charming & very enjoyable. Itās also deals with the contentious subject of how easy it is to get a gun.
 With a lot of chaos caused with each move. From start to finish itās quite the game. I would playā¦

 This movie has a brilliant author.
An excellent lawyer.
Thereās a whole host of goofy characters that come in and out.
The drugs these people have taken. Are not to be played with without respect.
That being said, itās a hilarious view. Really well shot. Excellent light. Excellent cinematography.
What people donāt understand before theyāve tried these drugs. Is that it isnāt about the drugs at all. Itās about stripping away your ego. Really talking to someone. The conversations in this movie are what really make it worth watching. Amazing dialogue.

Horror/comedy
 This Director probably did a lot of mushrooms. With a really fun cast of anime characters made in to real people. This is very visually creative. Really interesting movie. It is horrifying. Auntie is hilarious and likes playing jokes. But it is also very funny. A lot like evil dead two in that way. I would suggest this to anyone on the come down.

This is a review of the entire series.
 This movie is about family, honor, loyalty, and the criminal world. It teaches you a lot about tradition and and even more about what it means to be the boss. This movie can make you cry, laugh, and smile. Retribution leads to vengeance. You donāt need to like the main character. To be able to respect that he is the godfather. At the end. You will be left with that feeling. That hopefully you have left the world a better place. Because it will keep on spinning, long after youāre gone. An existential masterpiece.

This is the perfect marriage of horror and comedy. This film is a nonstop joy ride through the haunted forest. With incredible physical comedy. Wonderful practical effects. Plus, a very small dedicated team a very talented people. Sam Raimi made this. With a sense of humor straight from the overlook hotel. Ash is a very strong survivor. That leaves you always on the verge of laughing while watching him struggle.
It also set you up for a really excellent sequel. While not as horrifying. It is much more funny.
This is the kind of movie that if you saw it as a child. You would think about it for the rest of your life.
The imagery is haunting. Truly, a cult masterpiece.

Riches!
 The plot is to take the chance. Everyone else is crazy, not you. A man on a mission will make the impossible happen to reach for the stars. To build an opera house is their reason for being. Now he just needs a steam liner to climb a mountain to do it.
 This movie trancends itself. The events in this film are real⦠This has a feeling to it, like your lossing your mind on the river of madness. An actual tribe was hired and is filmed. The actual spectacle really happened. This is a metaphorical journey of a man trying to conquer death itself. The characters are deeply human and very easy to feel empathy for. The pay off is outrageous.
 Out of 5 S Should be viewed at least once. It is incredibly rare so good luck.

Thereās only one rule about fight club. You need to tell every cool person you meet to watch it if they havenāt seen it at least once.
 The insomnia is so well portrayed that youāll start to question what is an is not happening just as the character is. This movie makes you wonder what really matters. If anything matters. The characters are very powerful. Theyāve seen a lot. And they have a lot to say about it.
 When youāre done. You realize the only thing that really means anything is what you make matter. With plenty of little insider jokes. This film is very well shot. Everything is done with a reason. So pay attention.
You might see something new the next time you watch.

This portrays a tyrant. Someone who wants to be the best. Who is willing to do whatever it takes to take that mantle. This man is hardened. His environment has produced quite the beast. You get to watch him roar & dominate his environment. This movie really teaches you the importance of tact & moderation.
 Itās a very violent fun to watch film. But hard to watch too. Itās unapologetic in the portrayal of cruelty, that it takes to run an organization of criminals. This movie shows you what anger can do. It can take everything from you.
