Note: I was quite eager to check out this movie for a while now after hearing good things about it. I went into this movie knowing nothing about it and watched it on Amazon Prime. After watching the movie, I really enjoy this movie. I'm a bit surprised that the general audience had mixed feelings on this movie while the critics seem to love it. It seems like some people thought this movie was going to be a serious movie when it was never meant to be.
I really enjoy this movie because I thought it was a lot of fun and super creative. I love the art direction that this movie has because the cardboard aesthetics makes this movie feel more original with the creative direction that they went with. The plot itself is nothing groundbreaking, but it is so much fun seeing these characters trying to get out alive in this crazy place. Everything else about this movie is filled with imagination on how bizarrely inventive that they make everything looked in this movie.
I can honestly relate to the main character because he is a frustrated artist that feels like he hasn't created anything significant in his life at the age of 30. I'm someone who has struggled as an artist that is almost 30 years old and has not finished community college yet because I feel like that I'm below everyone else. When I create art, I feel like it's nothing significant at all. I also did like the rest of the supporting cast of characters too. My biggest issue with this movie is that some quirkiness and humor didn't always work. The movie can be pretty funny at times and sometimes it is pretty annoying with the quirkiness.
Overall, Dave Made a Maze is a very fun and creative movie that is worth checking out. 3 years, 9 months ago

Note: This is another classic from the 90s that I never saw growing up. I remember seeing bits of this movie when my parents rented it on VHS, but I never saw the full movie until now. 25 years later, I finally watched this movie on Crackle (As of 6/26/2020) and I enjoy it. It did take me a while to get invested in the story because this movie moves very slow. Once the movie starts to kick off after 30 minutes into the movie, the movie starts to get very good in my opinion.
I do like the chilling atmosphere that this movie has because the movie has a brooding tone to it. The acting in this movie is fantastic and Julianne Moore is easily the best actor in the movie. They also did a wonderful job of handling the characters in the story because you can really be sorry for what the main character is going through. The main character is a woman that is going through bizarre health issues and it keeps on getting worse as time goes on. You have many great twists and turns that will have you on the edge of your seat. I do recommend watching this movie without knowing anything about the movie.
Overall, Safe is a great movie and I highly recommend watching it. I do plan on revisiting it again in the near future. 3 years, 9 months ago

Note: I always remember hearing about this movie growing up and I never had the chance to watch it. I end up renting the movie off of Vudu because it was the only way that you can watch the movie in HD. After watching the movie for the first time, I like it a lot. This movie is a fun thrill ride from start to finish because there's not a single dull moment in this movie. The action sequences are pretty awesome and you get good gunshot/gore effects from the legendary Tom Savini as well.
The movie is far from perfect because I do feel like they could have written the story better, to be honest. The movie does have a fun cast of characters, but they could have freshened out the characters better in my opinion. I feel like there is not a strong enough bond with the cast of characters for me to connect with them. Zoe is the main female character in the movie and I feel like she does not do much in the movie if you ask me. I do like the movie's theme on people being disconnected from humanity by showing that people will do drugs and murder each other without regard for anyone else. At least the movie does have a sub-text to it and it is just mindless sex & violence for no reason.
Overall, Killing Zoe is a pretty good movie and I'm glad that I finally watched it. It's worth checking out if you haven't seen it yet. 3 years, 10 months ago
