Final Destination 5

2011

★★★½ Watched

Went in blind and that ending was fantastic. 

Great opening title sequence too.

Blanchett and Fassbender. Yes.

It was a great time but I think that I was hoping for something unexpected and that’s what let me down. At the end of the day it felt a bit predictable.

Heavy, dense and explosive, just like the atom bomb.

It’s going to win a ridiculous amount of awards and deserves all the praise it’s getting. Easily the best biographic movie I’ve seen. It’s long but I love long movies that completely transport you out of real life. The sound design and score were completely out of control - Nolan always nails that. My attention didn’t dip even for a split second. Every frame has been considered. If you haven’t seen it yet, buckle up for a nonstop 3 hour ride.

Alien is probably my favorite film of all time so needless to say I was hyped for this. It’s after midnight and I’m wide awake still processing it all. The aesthetic was perfect. So much fan service throughout and I honestly loved it. No doubt this is going to have haters but I’m not one of them. I can safely say this is my second favorite Alien film, right after the original. Definitely beyond excited to go see it in theaters again soon.

I feel traumatized by the 3rd act and now I need to try figure out how to fall asleep.
