Such a great movie. Instant Classic.

(No Spoilers.)

I've seen this movie three or four times now... and it's always a blast. Incredible soundtrack. Classic heist vibes. Definitely a must watch. 8/10.

Wokeness: Absolutely none!

Now, that's unexpected

The Rip being a Netflix movie, I didn't hold out much hope for it at all since it's a known fact the they throw money at the most shit screenplays and this one has Matt Damon and Ben Affleck in it. I don't know if or how much they're past their prime, but I bet the two aren't cheap anyhow.

Turns out, The Rip isn't too bad. Zero woke garbage. I mean, there's women on the police force if you want to split hairs. And the film's first half is a lot more fun than the second half since that part devolves into a big police chase and gunfight. And it's been done one way or another forever, but it's fun and the story keeps us engaged.

*** Spoiler Alert ***

The one problem I had with this movie is these damn goody-two-shoes cops and, well, almost everyone involved being such sniveling do-gooders. They should have hidden the money and stole a bunch of it. Like, what the hell is the government going to do with the drug money? That kind of annoyed me.

Folk Horror? More Like Woke Horror.

This was terrible preachy woke garbage. An isolated community run by a religious pastor. The entire premise is an oppressed woman rises up against the evil patriarchy and kills all the men. Really. All the men are violent, abusive and evil and all the women are good, victims and abused. Even the closeted gay character is bad because he's hiding his true self. The acting is actually not that bad and the FX are decent enough. There's even some beautiful scenery and wonderful cinematography in certain shots. However pretty much all the shots with actual actors in them look terrible. It's like it was all done by someone walking around shooting it on their phone camera, I'm not sure what it is but it just looks fake and off. The creature as well looks terrible and is hidden most of the time by fast cuts and weird high contrast lighting making it look like just a black shadow.

Jesus is brown in the movie.

I stopped watching after that.

Well that was a disappointment. A 70's horror film with Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing should of been at least worth a watch. While the acting is indeed pretty good that's about all it has going for it. Most of the movie takes place on a train and it is a whole lot of nothing. There is very little actual horror, and the FX are lackluster to say the least, mostly consisting of white contact lenses and some blood around the eyes. Even the monster is very clearly just a poorly done suit. One laughably poor scene has a character very slowly and lightly tap a heavy duty chain and padlock with an axe only to blow it apart almost instantly. Oh well at least it wasn't woke.

Nonstop crybaby meltdown

Sorry guys, but this show stopped being the whole “I make fun of absolutely everyone and I’m not on either side” thing and instead took the mask off and showed how left-wing they really are. And that’s been the case ever since Trump took office again. Clearly DOGE cut off some funding stream that was being funneled to them or their buddies and hit a nerve, so now all they do is whine about it.

They had some solid moments back when they weren’t taking sides and managed to create a few iconic episodes in pop culture, but the last season has become repetitive and extremely left-wing. To the point where some lines literally go, “well, woke wasn’t that bad,” and they even devoted an entire episode to Cartman being depressed because “woke” was dead, constantly pandering to what’s left of their audience: a bunch of whiny little leftists desperate for attention

This exact movie has been done many times before. A group of criminals hides out in a small house in the middle of nowhere after a job gone bad. They slowly succumb to paranoia and turn on each other. All the clichés are present in both characters and story. The acting and writing is fine, there's just nothing original here. Even the attempt to put a surprise twist on the end has been used too often in other movies. It's all just so dull. There's also the issue that for some reason it's shot very dark and with very little lighting, even in the middle of the day, I realize it supposed to serve a purpose but it gets to be a bit much after a while. The only thing that could be woke is the token black character but given the situation it's not unlikely. I was starting to get bored and not paying full attention after about 45 to 50 minutes so it's possible I missed something.

An intellect's film overloaded with CGI

Dust Bunny is a horror movie with a sub-context, although a light one. Normally, I don't like films where film school kids and intellects take to the Internet to pontificate their meaning, but like I say, the sub-context or deeper meaning to the Dust Bunny isn't too complicated. Thank God for that and we have Mads Mikkelsen as the neighbor hitman and I always like Mads Mikkelsen.

The films starts out a bit disjointed, fantasy-like and for me it was a little off-putting to the point I almost stopped watching. Kind of like a Wes Andersen film with a distinct "Bioshock" vibe, or Zissou. It gets better as it moves forward and the story comes together.

The movie relies on CGI way too much. A little special effects would go a long way rather than using CGI for what looks like every scene.

No DEI nonsense that we saw. Story is above average and the aesthetic is cool. At close to 2 hours, it might be trying for an Oscar. I'd say give it a watch, Dust Bunny is better than most films in the last year.

Not woke. An Ok Zombie movie!

Honestly, it had some fun parts. Solid 5.5/10. (That's on the generous side. haha) Had a few dumb plot choices, but so do all Zombie movies. haha Just like all foreign films, it's best to watch it in the original language with subtitles. No woke BS at all other than the typical "Women power" crap.

If there are two jokes, that’s a lot.

Once upon a time there was a comedian who actually did comedy…

This is not that comedian.

You still think this is gonna save the Marvel universe?

Eleven months before it’s out, they’ve already dropped four teasers showing who’s involved, and even if they brought back the entire original cast (including those who’ve had legal disputes with Marvel/Disney, like Scarlett Johansson or Terrence Howard), they couldn’t fix it.
This has been rotten from the start, and the actors involved are just that → actors. They’re not saviors, and they don’t care if the story is told right.
There aren’t many Henry Cavills in history; only he could stand up to the system because he has the backing and clout to do it, and even then, he couldn’t stop the direction they were forcing those projects into. Don’t expect this movie to change anything. The same people who ruined it are still behind it, and swapping faces on the snake won’t change that. This franchise is dead, no matter how much noise they make. That’s all they want from you → pure copium.

In the end, it’ll be just that: all bark and no bite.

We’ll see how “awake” this movie really ends up being. For now, let’s leave it at zero and see how it turns out…

Complex film

I'm happy to say that Rabbit Trap is a bit too complex for me half watching it, but at least it's a film that makes us think and doesn't end ambiguously. It's my belief that so many films finish open-ended because the kiddos cannot accept an ending they do not agree with or, I guess, understand.

Not that I'm unable to comprehend the plot, I just went into this Folk Horror film not expecting much. It really is a cool film if you watch it with intent and, you know what, I'm going to give it a re-watch with full my full attention.

Zero woke in a new film. Refreshing. I'm recommending this as a watch, if you capture the details.
