A Different Man........8/10


Its themes revolves around being comfortable in one's own skin and doing away with societal ideals and live your best life. A gritty take on beauty standards and its destructive consequences when one gets all too fixated on what the society thinks you should be or look like.

It's a very similar trope or plot with The Substance but with a male protagonist. And a more grounded tale.

Sebastian Stan gave a top tier performance in here to distinguish himself off his Marvel days and establish himself as a serious actor. One of the best performances of 2024.

So you dey believe that guy? 🙄

The Critical Drinker was unimpressed, and I am learning to trust his judgement for the most part.

I will not allow peer pressure from you make me watch the Substance, like it made pu7pl3 watch. No way

Make Barca no give you high BP oh my guy🤭

Hmmm.... She was a supermod about 245 million years ago. You know, I usually wonder what you look like. Let me take a guess; chocolate, average height, a little bit busty, etc. I can also guess that you have an unsmiling nature; keeps a stern face most of the time. When you like someone genuinely, you like him/her genuinely. What I can't guess is your tribe. Now, how's that?

A Real Pain (2024)

Archetype Oscar-bait flick that fails to leave first gear...

One of the easiest award-magnet stories to tell in movies is the Holocaust. Hollywood rinses it every now and then with varying degrees of success. This movie tried to use the same template, but it was a lethargic attempt, to say the least.

Close American Jewish cousins, David and Benji, travel to Poland, the birthplace of their grandmother, to connect with their Jewish heritage. They join a Holocaust tour group along the way.

The Holocaust is always an emotional story, but this movie used it as a smokescreen. The real focus was on Benji (played by Kieran Culkin), who embarks on some grief/redemption journey which was as bland as they come. Nothing worthwhile happens, and Culkin’s acting comes off as really, really annoying. Honestly, he was my least favorite character on Succession! The supporting cast was equally unremarkable.

The movie seriously tries to be something it’s not, a deep, profound insight into grief. Instead, it’s as shallow as they come and ultimately forgettable. I could’ve spent the 1 hour and 30 minutes watching paint dry instead of sitting through this hogwash.

Hollywood might have lost the plot. I can't expect profound movies from them anymore. they’re too focused on creating surface-level "artsy" flicks designed to attract awards and attention.

Adding this, along with Anora (2024), to the list of movies I’m actively rooting for to fail at the Oscars.

A Real Pain was exactly that.....a real pain to sit through. You should rightfully skip it. 👍🏿

4.5/10

I rarely take critics word for it much less a YouTuber. I don't care for anything YouTubers have to say concerning film reviews cos it's mostly rage baits and inconsequential cr@p.

I'll mostly watch a content as far as it's not total hogwash and within the genre, themes I like and I have the time for it, so as to make my own opinion of it.

Illusioneffect:
I would love to convince you to watch it🥺
It's not all body horror and it actually has really great themes about women bodies after 50 in the entertainment industry 🤷🏾‍♂️
Sincerely, just watch the first 10 minutes

Illusioneffect:
I've a movie I want you to review for me before I watch it 💀
Watch The Human Centipede 3. It's pretty banned everywhere and not available just anywhere but I'm sure you'd find it. Thank you

A 7/10 movie to me. I found it good but I hope it doesn't win anything.
And what's sincerely going on with Dune Part Two, did the f*cking critics forget it was released this year🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ I sincerely hope their houses there in California get burnt to the ground

The Drinker is quite intelligent and I like his analyses, although he gets it wrong sometimes but the most part he makes sense.

Esp the Critical Drinker😭 bro believes everything is woke even though he's right sometimes. I watch his reviews because it's funny and has good editing

Ishilove:
Emmmm, maybe I can skip the disgusting parts, shey?

Ishilove:
You are just like my brother. Na all the disgusting films that dude dey like watch.

Don't watch that rubbish. Reading the synopsis alone almost made me throw up. It is just horrible

7/10 is far too rich or have you guys gone soft and are easily impressed by this subpar movies that these guys are churning out these days?? 🤷🏾‍♂️...This movie doesn't come out top 50, let alone Top 10, in 2014. If critics are praising a movie to the highest heavens, then i will be overly critic of such movie and would expect nothing but top shelf material, but this was a borefest to say the least.


Dune part two ain't getting any of the Big 5 prizes imo, and the reasons are clear enough, it lacks a certain oscar spice....might get best cinematography if they are serious but i fear it even faces a strong competition from "The Substance" in the cate, as the cinematography of the later is far too supreme.

abduleez1:
Lol, Human Centipede part 3?? Which time the film gets two more parts.

I've always wanted to watch The Human Centipede. Just not found time for it.

abduleez1:
The guy annoys me the most. I don't watch his videos except one time I watched a few minutes of a review I can't even remember for what film. I don't even remember his face, just the name.
I just knew I don't need opinions from him and had an annoying voice.

His followers just reminds me everytime why I shouldn't take YouTube film critics seriously. They always go like "Critical Drinker said this and that" instead of watching it themselves.

Illusioneffect:
I'm literally scared to watch it - but I was forced to watch Terrifier 3 and it wasn't that bad so I thought maybe the Human Centipede won't be that bad but I don't want to go through it blind
