Blackhat 2015 by AverageMansReviews

Review Time: this film is poor.

Fundamental elements: there are voice-over elements, words on screen, background music, cultural elements, mental imagery, yes and no to subtitles being used when another language is being used, quick moving effects, slow-motion effects, time jumps and place jumps.

The movement as it relates to this project is slow, this film could do with Sonic the Hedgehog with a little harness on; so he can be attached to this film pull it along at some speed.

Storyline/Back stories: on both counts these are okay and this title leaves things on a question mark [what happened next?] The back stories get told to us via dialogue exchanges on a quick side note I am not being lazy, but as I haven't said this in some time, I don't discuss everything in my blogs because I don't like to give everything away and it covers me if I should forget something or didn't pick up on something or anything other.

Action sequences/Artistic visions: there are weapons being used, combat, helicopters, small plane, speedboat and explosions. Here is something for you to look out for; our lead character/role uses this axe to break inside something else, but here is the strange thing, for some strange reason he uses the back of the axe and not the front; I mean if I had to break into something or somewhere quickly I would use the front of an axe.

Moving on to the artistic visions there are these inner computers elements, the viewers get to see from the perspective of one of these characters/performers as they are wearing this protective suit, these fishes in their fish tank and these cultural elements of what seems to be a festival, these elements are good.

Character developments/Performances: the character developments are something safe and reliable; the performances are poor, now I don't know what it is about this project, but the chemistry or friction [depending where you are; is depending what you get,] feels manufactured or I can see it, to be fair there are some small elements of chemistry or [when it comes to watching this title you will understand why I am struggling to put my finger on it] it's like there is chemistry/friction but for some reason I find it difficult to get invested in or it isn't there.

This film receives: 3/10, I don't know what to say about this film; I think this project could have had potential if it was quicker, meaning this is all speculation because we don't know how things would've turned out but still it is a valid point nonetheless, if it was quicker may be it would have made these problems less noticeable or maybe this title would have been noticeably better with a bit of get up and go to it; but as it is it is poor.

Review Time: this film is mixed.

Fundamental elements: there are voice-over elements, words on screen, background music, mental imagery, slow-motion effects, time jumps and place jumps.

The movement as it relates to this project is a combining problem [this means I can see that the movement of this project doesn't help the situation but it also doesn't help that there are combining aspects to this problem as well,] which I will be discussing throughout this project in one way or another, I am just trying to limit the risk of me repeating myself.

Storyline/Back story: the storyline is okay but it is a combining problem, the viewers get told the back story via voice-over or dialogue.

Action sequences: there are weapons being used, combat, exercise and chasing.

Character developments/Performances: now the character developments are a cliché of what these character types are, so yes there is friction and chemistry [depending where you are; is depending what you get.]

But having said all of this these character developments can be a combining problem as well. Now I would like to discuss the combining problems in-depth; I am just going to come out and say it; because the character developments are developing too quickly, compared to the movement and the storyline, it's like you want this film to hurry up, because you have already got ahead mentally in the film and your just waiting for the film to catch up, so without giving too much away if something happens that is unforeseen; it has no impact whatsoever at this point [it is more like a comedy element more than anything else.]

Moving on to the performances they are doing their job, [minus one character/performer,] Elba he puts in a good performance, he quickly and convincingly switches from personality traits to personality traits with ease.

This film receives: 5/10, well let's leave this review on a positive if there are any Elba fans out there, give this film a go but I wouldn't expect too much.

Arctic 2018/2019 by AverageMansReviews

Review Time: this film is good.

Fundamental elements: there is background music, cultural elements, no subtitles when another language is being used, time jumps and place jumps.

The movement of this title is something I can't criticize too much, because with this type of film you can go two ways silence or pretty much silence which this is the way this project went or something like The Martian 2015 [yes I needed to go and watch a trailer to make sure what I was saying was correct, I have seen this film once before but I need to review it again for my blogs.]

But as it relates to this project there is background music and our lead character/role breathing and saying not much until the situation happens, the reason why I can't criticize it too much, this is something I will discuss later in this review but on a quick side note I prefer The Martian 2015 one main character/lead role approach, it is more easier to settle down with and more engageable.

Storyline: it is straightforward and it has a question-mark style for an ending, now to cover my back it is very rare I can let this style of ending go or something else, I was watching this project with someone else and I turned to them and said this or something to this effect "I bet this film has a question-mark style ending for an ending" so I was less than pleased when I found out I was right.

Action sequences/Artistic visions: there are fishing, weapons being used, helicopters and rescuing. Moving on to the artistic visions the landscapes, keeping track of how many days he has been here [or that is what I think he is doing here] and this Polar bear or possibly Polar bears is something for you to look out for in this project and they are all good.

Character developments/Performances: now here is where I would like to discuss why I can't really criticize the movement of this title; it looks like/feels like they were going with the approach of this is how our lead character/performer feels like in this situation [using the movement of this project to transmit those feelings onto the viewers, in short making their audience feel like they are right there with him/them.] I don't know what to say about the performances, because it is all about a performance [I can't say too much without giving too much away, this point will make perfect sense when you watch this project] there is chemistry there, but it is still like 95% down to one performer so I will say this performance carries this project and it is good

This film receives: 6/10, I had to take a little bit off for the question-mark ending so this mark is a fair conclusion.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [Season 1,] Episode 42: A Pig Surprise by AverageMansReviews

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [Season 1,] Episode 42: A Pig Surprise by AverageMansReviews

Review Time: this is another episode which is mixed.

4 things about this episode

Storyline/Moral message: the storyline is okay it is based around adopting animals, Zack has a small narrative and The Power Rangers in their civilian attire; Jason separates the group for different tasks and there is the small pigs narrative as well. The moral message is "Having a pet is a big responsibility."

Action sequences/Artistic visions: I have to say that the action sequences from an action perspective or an artistic perspective are good on both counts; Goldar performs this missile dropkick [wrestling move] on the Megazord or before this element Goldar is trying to squash The Power Rangers underneath his feet before calling on their Zords.

This episode receives: 5/10, after everything is said and done this mark is a fair outcome

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [Season 1,] Episode 41: Rita's Seed of Evil by AverageMansReviews

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [Season 1,] Episode 41: Rita's Seed of Evil by AverageMansReviews

Review Time: this episode is mixed.

5 things about this episode

Storyline/Moral message/Back story: the storyline is okay it goes on about the environment and Jason gets a small narrative [there is Zordon and Jason having communication here via his wrist communicator three times in this location] and the moral message goes on about the environment as well. Moving on to the back story, the viewers get given this sequence of what this monster is capable of and there is voice-over as well.

Action sequences/Artistic visions: there are working together/double teams involving the following characters/performers Zack & Billy, Kimberly & Trini and Goldar & Scorpina and there are environmental scenes as well.

Seeing this monster from the perspective of The Power Rangers [sitting inside the Megazord,] looks vintage but still look great.

This episode receives: 5/10, well this episode achieves what it has been designed to do and that is to talk and show environmental elements in one way or another.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [Season 1,] Episode 40: Doomsday: Part II by AverageMansReviews

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [Season 1,] Episode 40: Doomsday: Part II by AverageMansReviews

Review Time: this episode is good

5 things about this episode

Storyline/Comedy level: it is a good continuation and we have small numbers of characters/performers in their own very small narratives [characters/performers in different locations] before they join up again and there is a small piece of comedy between Goldar and Rita Repulsa as you are in the final section, it is something for you to hear out for.

Character developments: now here are two examples of the character developments; The Power Rangers in their civilian attire make two very important decisions at two separate points in this episode; this shows that these characters individually or together as a group have come a long way since we first met them and they don't feel as if the job is done yet.

Action sequences/Artistic visions: these two points are once again a strong asset to this episode, be it an arm of the Megazord being chopped off or likewise the tail of the Dragonzord being chopped off as well.

This episode receives: 7/10, like the previous episode this episode has lots to offer, but this mark just feels closer to anything higher.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [Season 1,] Episode 39: Doomsday: Part I by AverageMansReviews

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers [Season 1,] Episode 39: Doomsday: Part I by AverageMansReviews

Review Time: this episode is excellent

5 things about this episode

Storyline/Bloopers: the storyline is excellent, moving on to the bloopers it would be really useful if The Power Rangers in their civilian attire stopped showing or talking about these things in this list; The Power Rangers and being really happy or something to this effect, talking about The Power Rangers and morphing into The Power Rangers, when there are so many people around them on a little bit of research/recap haven't the Power Rangers broken one of the three rules of being a Power Ranger in this episode, they get adulation from the people of Angel Grove and Zack wants to morph to impress a female character [so wouldn't that be seeking personal gain on both counts [I know they get thanks from the people of Angel Grove in one way or another anyway, but in this case this episode has been designed to give them adulation] and on reflection they are very lucky not to have broken another of these three rules not to reveal your secret identities and just out of interest the third rule is not to escalate a battle unless Rita forces them

But moving on to the next blooper [I am trying not to give too much away here,] but when Jason/The Red Power Ranger says "Look Goldar's driving." with this particular design you don't drive it; you pilot it, yes I have adapted Jason/The Power Rangers speech enough not to give too much away here.

Character developments: there are excellent character developments as it relates to Rita Repulsa as the viewers get to see and experience her true unstoppable powers and I should give you a little bit of a heads up there is quick moving images at some point in this episode.

Action sequences/Artistic visions: on both counts these are highly creative and highly imaginative as there is so much happening to see these battling sequences and the camera work to show these scenes from the best possible perspectives so the viewers feel a part of the action and carnage.

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode has lots to offer; so here is some good news we are only half way through.
