    How are you doing today and how your day? Great movie review. I actually enjoyed the movie, well at least the 2nd half of the movie. The movie did a great job develop its characters. One was struggling what happen in the past, one wanted to fix the issue at hand, and one was pretty cocky and feel like he can take on the world. Its was ok chemistry. I did not have any issue with that.

    I was in the exact same boat as you, I watched the 1996 Twister 24 hours before seeing this new entry. I think both of them are entertaining enough, but I didn't go crazy over them. I didn't care about any characters other than Glen Powell's and the tornado sequences weren't as thrilling as I had hoped, but the visuals effects were next level. Great review, TJ!

    It was an ok movie. I am a Godzilla fan so I did not like he did not have much role in the movie. He basically sleeps, gets up and kick butt, and go back to sleep. The movie was more about Kong than anything. I will admit that Kong did made the movie and it was pretty interesting. As for the characters of the movie, you can take out at least 2 of them and the movie would have been the same. Oh yea how are you doing today?

    So you did a great job with the review! I told some of the scenes with my dad what happens in this movie and he thought it sounded kind of creepy! I saw this movie as well! Going into this blindly having knowing nothing about this movie! I was thinking of this idea for an episode where the main character’s dog gets stolen by two cult leaders who are naked and the cults supports a tree! Also I wanna name the episode “the house of the cult” You can guess what’s that’s a reference to! Also after the main character kills the man cult leader the woman cult leader eats his heart and turns into a creepy angel to kill our main character!

    Oz Perkins is clearly a pro at developing atmosphere, because the constantly feeling of paranoia and dread keeps up through the entire runtime. Unfortunately, I found the plot and conclusion to be very overhyped, and am just not a fan of the path they went down to wrap everything up. I'm a sucker for a juicy Nicolas Cage role though. Great review, TJ!

But that what you get for living in a town where everyone knows everyone. The lady who play Harker play robotic for me and wasn't feeling her until the movie was almost over.

ROTTEN TOMATOES 94% (Highly critically acclaimed) Mark my words you will not forget this movie. IT IS THE GREATEST STORY YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF. It will break your stereotype regarding indian movies that they are only song and dance and fun. *It will change your top 10 movie list of all times.* IT IS A MODERN CLASSIC. *You'll experience the new dimension of Indian Cinema.* *An exceptional Gem.* The above description of the movie is not an exaggeration. *You'll be shocked by the production quality of this movie* You'll understand when you watch it.
