Reddit (now Lemmy) singlehandedly made me as un-creative and unproductive as I am now (more accurately it’s my tendency to get addicted to stuff like this led to this, but please let me have this)
I usually like Gerard Butler movies when I’m in that mood. A bit more normal man prevailing against the odds. I don’t like unstoppable forces of nature where everyone bends for them without enough convincing.
Terminal List is basically Chris Pratt hunting down the big shots who caused the death his army battalion and covered it up. He finally tracks down all the way to the top, and she is hiding in her big mansion, and the fbi and a private army is securing the whole island trying to keep her safe from Chris Pratt. He defeats everyone, kills the big baddie, and tries to escape the island with a hidden scuba gear. The main fbi person spots him in a vulnerable state, but feels Chris was justified and let’s him escape. Pretty much literally what happens in Beekeeper.
Indian movies have been doing this for 30 years now, so even John Wick wasn’t novel to me, but at least it had a whole fictional world to go with it, and the stunts were great and he took a lot of beatings making it believable.
The Godzilla’s sheer power was shown very well. I thought the appearance could be a lot better, but I suppose they were paying homage to the original Godzilla. I did miss that guttural reverberation sound from the newer Godzilla movies.

Just finished watching Beekeeper. Am I the only one to think the end of the movie was pretty much a ripoff of Terminal List??
I wasn’t very impressed with the rest of the movie either. It was too Baba Yaga and unbelievable to me. What did you think?

Elemen-tree school.
Maybe it's just a series of coincidences... (lemmy.world)
Watched Godzilla Minus One and loved how it was more an emotional drama and less a monster movie. What are your thoughts on the movie?
