Focus (2015)

-Focus (2015) movie review: -Focus is a crime flick that follows con-man Nicky, played by Will Smith, as he meets and trains a new counterpart Jess, played by Margot Robbie, in the ways of being a con-artist. This comes complete with twists, trust issues, rich people, and all kinds of Oceans 11 style problems.

-For what it was, I really enjoyed Focus. It has a few small problems, but was good.

-The story felt original and was hard to predict, making the twists even better and more shocking. Even if they were a tiny bit forced.

-The pace was really good for the first half, and the second half. But the first half is all fun and the second half is all plot. Neither was bad, but the second half was less fun.

-The acting is really good. Both Will and Margot did a great job! -The characters are deep and interesting. Will Smiths character especially had a lot to offer in the way of charisma and twists.

-The music was fitting and some of it was memorable.

-Another thing I liked was seeing the inside of the whole con-man thing you see in movies. Like stealing watches looks so much cooler in this because they explain it.

-Really the negatives are small. There are some inconsistencies and some added drama that takes the audience out of reality alittle, but it was compelling, well-made, and entertaining! There is not that much else to say, because Focus is worth seeing in theaters! -It is rated-R for some language, a moderate, but not heavy amount, and some brief sexual content. A PG-13 amount probably.

Fifty Shades of Grey

Keep in mind that I've read the book. The writing is laughable and sophomoric. It's the literary version of redtube. If you pay close attention, you'll realize that it's Twilight fan fiction. I'm sorry, women are idiots (NOT ALL OF THEM). Only women would read an erotic novel and think it's an excellent piece of romantic literature. I honestly felt like I was reading the playbill for a bad porno.

Now, onto the film...

The directing - Okay, I guess?

The acting - Jamie Dorman's American accent... Just, terrible. I honestly thought Keanu Reeves had a better accent in Dracula. Dakota is good, but if you're a guy, you're probably going in just to see her get rammed.

The script - Just like the book.

What you'll actually go in for - A tit here, an ass there. Probably something you'd spend your time "pleasuring" yourself to.

Of course, it's impossible to make a good movie adaption of a crap book. And I came on here today to see a 4.0? At least I'm not the only one. Lol

I would really like to see this fail hard, just to see the plan for two sequels get put on the shelf. But with the amount of fangirls with wet panties, this will probably end up passing the $1 billion mark...

EDIT: I'm serious here, girls. You need to stop downvoting my review and making me feel bad about myself. Please, try to be more compassionate. As you may or may not know, I am of fragile ego, and any more little down-arrows could lead me into a serious depressive state of insomnia, suicidal thoughts, substance abuse, and obsessive masturbation. You have to be a little more considerate when you so brazenly downvote people's reviews, because, in a way, you're downvoting the people themselves.
