11/7/2020 - Gemini Man

Release Year: 2019

Rating: PG-13

Score: 7.5/10


Gemini Man was a pretty standard action movie. I really enjoyed it. Now, if you are going to watch this movie, you probably know the 'twist' but if not, stop here, spoilers are ahead.....




Right, so if you're reading this part, you know that we're going to be following an older Will Smith's character (Henry) who is being hunted by a clone of himself. This makes for some really cool action sequences, both versions of Henry match each other and there is some awesome choreography. Mary Elizabeth Winstead, in my opinion, was fantastic as Henry's partner, Danny. There are some beautiful settings in this movie, as it takes us to Hungary, Colombia and very rural Georgia. Smith plays a mature professional who has seen his share of chaos and is ready to get out, and he really portrays that wisdom well. 

This movie does use de-aging technology, which is risky. A lot of the scenes with 'young Will' are either dark, action-focused, or both. This lets them hide the de-aging tech which kind of gets exposed near the end of the movie. It doesn't effect the plot much, as it is just in the wrapping up stage of the film, but it did catch me off guard a little at the end. 

I would absolutely recommend this to someone who wants to be entertained for a good hour and 45 minutes and likes fast paced action movies. This movie is not very gory, and can be a bit vulgar at points, but nothing excessive. Definitely not a must see movie, but absolutely a fun and easy one to watch.

King Arthur Buttermilk Pancake Mix Review

-

This mix has a lot of promise. The mini stack I had today wasn't the best I've ever had, but I think there was definitely some user error involved. It's a lot thicker than the usual batter I make, so I'll need to either pour a different amount or thin it out with some water or milk.  The taste of the pancakes is great. They taste a lot like homemade pancakes and cooked really nicely. They were a little bit too dense for my taste preferences, but certainly not uneatable by any means. I will definitely be making these again and hopefully they'll be even better next time. For now I think I'll give them a 7.1 out of 10.

Ranking EVERY NBA 2022/2023 City Edition Jersey

-

Preamble Alright, before we dive into the rankings, I want to get a couple of things out of the way. There are far more jerseys this year that I just simply do not like. I think this is a product of Nike forcing this program on the NBA teams and making them come up with new designs every year for six years now. There's only so much some teams can do, and in some cases, they did their best work already and are now being forced to turn in bad products. Second, I think it is absolutely pathetic how many teams relied on a phrase located near the waist of the jersey in order to claim some sort of tie-in to their city. THAT PART IS TUCKED IN DURING GAMES! Nobody is going to see those phrases, so if that's your only thread of hope, it's probably not a good one. These jerseys will be ranked based on two factors: 1. How nice does the jersey look? 2. How well did the jersey capture the city or something about the city? Lastly, these are just my rankings. If you love a jersey I hated,...

WandaVision Episode 4 Reaction!!

 Season 1, Episode 4: We Interrupt This Program I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!! This was by far my favorite episode yet. We are really diving deep into what's REALLY going on, and it's so cool!! We also get great cameos in my opinion from Randall Park as FBI Agent Jimmy Woo and Kat Dennings as Dr. Darcy Lewis. Both of them did terrific jobs in my opinion carrying on their character from their previous appearances. If you've been skeptical of the sitcom style up to this point, this episode is right up your alley. More analysis below with spoilers if you are looking to discuss, or just read someone else's opinion! WOW right from the cold open of this episode, I was fully invested. We get another scene showing the aftermath of the blip, actually getting to experience a tiny piece of what it was like to reappear through the eyes of Monica Rambeau, the daughter of Captain Marvel's friend Maria "Photon" Rambeau, who passed away 2 years after Thanos's snap in Infinity W...
