Best Visual Effects Oscar Nominees 2024
Godzilla Minus One (2024.29, Lots-of-fun Smash )
No Comments
Godzilla Minus One is a monster movie but it is also a surprisingly good personal drama that tells us much about Japanese national character. (4*)
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 (2024.33, Just Good, Jam Packed )
No Comments
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 is a VFX masterpiece and the last in a trilogy of super-hero movies that are actually relatable and human scaled. Still, it isn’t as good as the last one.
Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning (2024.30, Thrilling , A Blast)
No Comments
Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning is an action-packed thriller with everything you’d expect from the IMF. It is also an endurance test of adrenaline production. (4*)
Napoleon (2024.32, Stunning , But Bad)
No Comments
Napoleon is visually stunning but fails to tell an emotionally engaging and understandable story. (1.5*)
The Creator (2024.31, Pale , Not Good )
No Comments
The Creator is a disappointing science fiction movie that could have had a great story but instead gets lost in the special effects. (2.5*)
