Chuck's Movie Breakdown

          Hey guys, Chuck here, and I just got home from seeing F9 , so let's get into my thoughts on the latest entry of the Fast & Furious  series.            So, we start off the movie with a prologue depicting the tragic death of Jack Toretto, father of Dom and Mia, and that Dom was on his father's pit crew along with Dom's younger brother Jakob. Cut to a few years after the events of The Fate of the Furious,  and Dom is living a quiet life with his wife, Letty, and son, Brian. One day, Roman, Tej, and Ramsey arrive with a video message from Mr. Nobody, sending the crew on a mission to recover a dangerous device known as Aries, which Jakob and his group of mercenaries are also after.         So the race is on to recover Aries, and along the way, Dom's crew team up with Sean Boswell, along with Earl and Twinkie, from Tokyo Drift,  Jakob also works with cyberterrorist Cipher, who wants t...

         Hey guys, Chuck here. Well, I just went to see Cruella,  Disney's latest live-action film inspired by their animation library, and here's my take on the film.         Set in 1970's London, the movie follows Estella, who lost her mother at the hands of a powerful and ruthless fashion designer named The Baroness. With the aid of her close friends Jasper and Horace, Estella eventually gets a job working for The Baroness as a designer. After a number of weeks working for and learning from The Baroness, Estella eventually decides to make a splash in fashion in her own right, creating a new persona to do so: that of unique new fashion designer Cruella.          While continuing to aid The Baroness as Estella, she also works to upstage The Baroness and make headlines as Cruella. There are a lot more twists and turns throughout the movie, but I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't watched it yet.  ...

        Hey guys, Chuck here. Well, this review was definitely a long time coming. It's probably one of my favorite animated films produced outside of Disney, and it stems from one of my favorite cartoon shows for adults: South Park.  A series that, even after its 1997 debut on Comedy Central, stirs up a lot of talk, a lot of laughs, and a lot of controversy. So, during the show's early years, creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker decided to release a big screen feature film in the Summer of 1999, and that's what we're here to discuss. So, let's dive right into South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut .          The movie opens with Stan Marsh going around town and picking up his three closest friends: Kenny McCormick, Kyle Broflovski, and Eric Cartman, with Kyle's adopted brother Ike tagging along, to go see the new movie Terrance and Philip: Asses of Fire . Unfortunately, they can't get in to see the film due to it being rated R, so they pa...

           Hey guys, Chuck here. Does anyone else remember this movie? It's been nearly twenty years since Disney released this one in theaters, and it almost seems like a forgotten gem from the studio. So, let's dive into Disney's 2003 film Holes , based on the 1998 children's novel by Louis Sachar.            The movie tells the story of Stanley Yelnats IV, whose family has had a string of bad luck throughout the generations, with Stanley's grandfather constantly blaming the family's bad luck on Stanley's Latvian great-great grandfather Elya Yelnats. One day, while walking home from school, gets hit on the head by a pair of shoes that fall from the sky, and is arrested for stealing the shoes, as the shoes belonged to Stanley's favorite baseball player Clyde "Sweet Feet" Livingston, who donated the shoes to a homeless shelter. Stanley, despite telling the truth in court, is given a choice between going to jail or spending eigh...
