Good Boys: A Kid Friendly Version Of Superbad…. Just Remove The Friendly

Posted on by jadedsteelereviews

This movie is kinda like a car crash, you want to look away but can’t. It’s effective in doing that because I a twenty four year old who has a twelve year old brother just like the kids in this flick are, couldn’t even look at the screen… tell a lie I did.

Now my brother has begun secondary school, which for those in the US that’s basically middle school/high school, he has two mates who come round here almost every week, recently they had a sleepover and they had a laugh talking about video games and all sorts, they even head down to the beach and have a laugh and giggle about stuff that happened in school that very same week.

Now your probably wondering why I’m telling you this, trust me it’ll make so much sense now, I can relate to this film on a level that can’t even comprehend.

Good Boys follows three best mates Jacob Tremblay plays Max, a twelve year old boy whose never kissed a girl before, Brady Noon plays Thor who earns the name sippy cup on account that he wouldn’t drink a bottle of beer, and Keith L. Williams who plays Lucas whose parents are going through a divorce.

Now… the jokes/comedy run riot, the naivety of these twelve year olds are hilarious, especially where one of the boys raids his parents belongings and begin to arm themselves against a guy whose coming to purchase a rare card which Lucas owns, this scene in particular is hilarious because of what the boys load up on, anal beads which they assume is nunchucks, another reason why this scene is downright hilarious is because Jacob Tremblay’s character stands in doorway as they greet the potential buyer wearing a gimp mask, I mean a gimp mask, they got a twelve year old boy to wear a gimp mask.

Trust me this film really put me on edge as when I got back from the movies my brother said he’s going out with the two friends as mentioned above, immediately I was panicking, what is he doing, where is he going and what kind of shenanigans are they going to get up too.

I absolutely loved this film, mainly because it’s by the same team who bought us Sausage Party and Superbad, but because of the comedy that ensues during the ninety minute runtime, the jokes come thick and fast, one minute you’ll be wetting yourselves laughing next you’ll be going aww, I give this film a solid 10/10 it’s hilarious and heartwarming but parents be warned as you will be watching your preteens a little closer after viewing this movie, anyway as always catch you guys later 🙂

Mom And Dad, Murder… Children In Peril and Nicholas Cage Belting Out The Hokey Cokey

Posted on by jadedsteelereviews

He certainly does, I’m not making that up he generally while he’s attempting to kill his children he belts out a rendition of the Hokey Cokey in traditional Nic Cage fashion… oh yeah the film, on with the review!

Mom and Dad stars well Nicholas Cage, Selma Blair, Zackary Arthur and Anne Winters as your typical bog standard suburban family, oh sorry might I add if you feel uneasy about child killing then please stop reading, I’m being serious just stop reading, oh you wanna read on? Well don’t say I didn’t warn ya.

So a mysterious static signal happens and all of a sudden thousands of parents kill their children, think Cell meets Cooties so anyway Selma Blair and Nic Cage attempt to kill their children played by Zackary Arthur and Anne Winters, the children have to attempt to stop their murdering psychopathic parents from doing so.

That’s pretty much it really, now let’s talk about the acting, you know full well what I’m on about yes I’m on about Nic Cage belting out the Hokey Cokey, that scene was the pinnacle highlight for me, I watched that scene for the first time and thought yep, that’s definitely sold it for me. The acting by Selma Blair though it’s pretty damn impressive as well but the real stars of the movie are the children.

They are so believable in this flick, points to them for sure, the older sister is good as is the little boy however, I do think they overdid with the child killing, I mean we see a fucking nine year old little girl get mercilessly wrecked by a meat tenderiser, yep… that happens, we also see a preteen get stabbed by some car keys by his own mother, yep again that happens, the film is billed as a black comedy and I whole heartedly support that statement.

The film has its fair share of gore but then the characters will throw in a witty one liner and you find yourself laughing your ass off, so Mom And Dad is a gory fucking hilarious movie trust me Nicholas Cage’s performance has to be witnessed I’m not making this shit up when I say overacting, I give Mom And Dad a 9/10 it’s brilliant it’s gory and damn hilarious too but as always guys until next time catch ya later 🙂

IT, Probably One Of The Best Adaptions To A Stephen King Novel Ever

Posted on by jadedsteelereviews

As I’ve said before I love book to film adaptions, however in my Dark Tower review there are some books that need special attention when adapting them in to a film, IT does just that and is by far a definite achievement by adapting the infamous novel in to one of the most scariest films we have seen this year.

For those who are unfamiliar with the story of IT let me tell you, IT is about a clown who every twenty seven years comes to Derry in Maine to kidnap children, a group of kids nicknamed the losers club go out and destroy the clown, only for it to come back 27 years later when they are adults, and that’s IT, the film is so terrifyingly scary that I found myself watching through my fingers at some scenes, however this isn’t your average horror movie no, it has some absolutely amazing comedic moments especially from the young cast, the banter between them is amazing, the insults are just hilarious, my favourite insult has to be when a member of the losers club peeks in to Eddie’s medicine cabinet and says “hey Eddie are these birth control pills” to which Eddie replies “yeah those are for your sister” trust me there’s plenty more where that come from during the two hour run time.

The scares are impressive as is Pennywise, who is played incredibly well by Bill Skarsgard, he actually gives Tim Curry a run for his money, Pennywise in this film is probably the best thing about this movie as is the talented young cast, the film stars Jaeden Lieberher as Bill Denbrough the leader of the losers club, Finn Wolfhard as Richie Tozier the comedic one of the group, Chosen Jacobs as Mike Hanlon, Jack Dylan Grazer as hypochondriac Eddie Kasbrak and Wyatt Oleff as Stan Uris, trust me this cast is amazing to watch, you can tell they enjoyed making the film.

All in all IT is one of the most faithful adaptions of a Stephen King book I have seen in a long time, almost makes me forget we had a Dark Tower release but hey that’s just me, oh for those who suffer from coulrophobia for the love of god stay away from this film, anyway IT is an amazing, scary if not terrifying and faithful movie adaption, now I ask you a question with the amount of Stephen King novels we are seeing getting adapted what book would you like to see get the big screen adaption, for me I would love to see a Misery or even a Cujo remake, what do want to see adapted let me know I’m quite interested to hear, but until next time guys catch ya later.

The Emoji Movie…. Do You Think Critics Should Critique Kids Movies

Posted on by jadedsteelereviews

Please don’t judge, please don’t judge for the love of god please don’t judge but I quite enjoyed this movie.

With that being said it was good it was funny and had tons of adult humour in it, it was definitely something for everyone kids and adults will like this movie however this does beg the question should kids movies be reviewed by critics… okay, okay, okay I know what your thinking “but Jack your a reviewer and your reviewing a kids movie” hear me out I’m praising the movie saying it was good, but critics go out their way and slam and slate a children’s movie, shouldn’t it be the other way round, what I mean by this is shouldn’t we here from the people that these films are intended for which of course is the children, I would love to hear children’s opinions on these movies, instead we get critics who repeatedly slam a kids movie saying “it’s dull” “don’t waste your time” and the most common one “too many fart jokes”I honestly would love to hear your thoughts about this, let me know if you think this is right or wrong

That’s humour that kids know and understand they love all the farting and burping, I should know I have a 10 year old brother who laughed at Paddington squirting tomato sauce, kids get that sort of humour, now I’m not having a rant or throwing a tantrum I just think it would be nice for us to hear some opinions from the future generation. With that being said The Emoji Movie is really good, okay I do have one nitpick and that’s the moral which is find who you are and don’t let others tell you who you are, we do see that a lot in children’s movies.

Anyway the Emoji Movie is an enjoyable kids movie with funny jokes and plenty of adult humour… Oh also look out for Patrick Stewart playing the poop Emoji he has some pretty funny lines too. Anyway final rating of the Emoji Movie I’m giving it a 9/10 it’s funny, enjoyable and just plain silly just the moral was a bit too cliched any way guys apart from that… catch ya later

Chef, heartwarming story check, amazing comedy check, food porn that makes you drool oh you better believe that’s a check

Posted on by jadedsteelereviews

Chef is one of those underrated films of 2014 it stars Jon Faverau, Sofia Vergara and rising star Emjay Anthony basically this is food porn the movie, the food they make is just so damn good it makes your mouth drool like Niagara Falls. 

Jon Faverau plays a resteraunt chef named Carl Casper whose boss is (pardon my French) a bit of a dick, he won’t let him cook what he wants just what is on the menu that the boss created, a big shot food critic shows and dramatically slams Carl criticising his food, so he quits his job and works on a food truck, he goes on one hell of a tasty road trip with his son and newly promoted sue chef Marvin.

What was good about this film was that it was hilarious, there were so many laugh out loud moments, there’s one part where Marvin stuffs corn starch down his crotch, then Carl and then making his son do it, then saying probably one of the best lines in the film “in the morning you dip it in oil and make it look like a hush puppy” haha I don’t know why but a childish chuckle burst out of me like the chestburster from alien (minus the blood and gore)

However the main part to this film was the food, oh my god the food was making my mouth water so much there was a puddle on the floor, you cannot help but go mmmmm! (or maybe sing food glorious food from Oliver) the food was the best part of the entire film, but what would I rate this film, well isn’t it obvious it’s a definite 10/10 the food was amazing the comedy was perfect and the whole story line was very heartwarming, so do  your self a favour go and watch Chef it’s amazing and as always catch ya later.
