Terrible Plan! Movie Reviews

What I liked: First and foremost I liked the cash register frog. The hair salon ladies were funny and the dance numbers were great. They managed to avoid the common problem with large ensemble numbers where they're filmed so they look pretty similar: bunches of people dancing in formation in a large open space (a field, a street, an oddly large restaurant). There were cool locations and interesting filming that kept the dancing all exciting. I liked the fireworks and the sparkler shoes and everyone thinking about what they would do if they won the lottery. All of the food looked delicious, we had to go get horchata and other delicious snacks afterwards. I liked the Hamilton cameo.  What I didn't: I'm not sure about the old Usnavi narrator telling us the story, I found it more distracting than helpful. The one guy in the swimming pool dance number. He was terrifying. He must have answered the wrong casting call, he was really trying for a role in the exorcist or a haunted ci...

What I liked: The widows were pretty awesome. I got good Jason Bourne vibes from the first scene we see them in. This is the coolness factor I was hoping for from Charlie's Angles. I am now invested in a crossover between the widows, Charlie's Angles and the Amazons. I don't really care if they are working together or fighting each other, it would just be cool. I liked that we got more of Blackwidow's bewildering interrogation techniques and mission impossible masks.  I'm glad that someone finally addressed superhero poses. The Red Guardian was the main comic relief and he did a good job. I liked his action figure, his pep talk, and that they incorporated his rivalry with Captain America as tall tales. Alexi the pig was a fun addition. I like that they took skydiving without a parachute and managed to increase the difficulty by adding obstacles.  What I didn't: These people have not seen land before time clearly a treestar is a maple leaf. I liked the distrust o...

We're back! Movies are back. Hooray! What I liked: I liked the fish sheep and the grandma. Uncle Ugo was unnerving but I liked when he showed up unexpectedly, imagining him living in the deep trench from Aquaman really spices him up. I liked the idea of sleeping under the fish and Luca learning to walk. The Vespa construction and turtle ramp were fun. I liked Machiavelli, something that I never really thought I would say. The idea that an Italian triathlon is swimming, biking and eating pasta is phenomenal and I hope to compete in at least one of the legs of this event.  I liked that the kids achieved their goals when they reframed their focus to helping others. The soccer game at the fountain was great. And I was glad for the voice of reason "Risking your life for a Vespa? It doesn't make any sense."   What I didn't: I wish I knew opera to place the songs better to see if there were hidden opera jokes. The only song I knew while watching was from Barber of Savill...
