At this point, I think I actually like it more when I hate a movie or TV show. That way I get to prove I have some credibility and standards and don't just love everything. Well thank you The Amateur for providing me an opportunity to show that I'm not just all puppy dogs and ice cream all the time! I hated this movie. It suffered from some of my biggest pet peeves in a movie. First, it was based on a book. Obviou…More

One day, his wife was killed in a terrorist attack. He identifies his wife's killer and the group behind them and asks t…More
Hello friends, good vibes to all. > Hola amigos, buenas vibras para todos. Source! What would they be capable of in order to carry out revenge? - I sometimes ask myself this question as a fantasy game, and the truth is that the answer is far from clear, since it's impossible to know how we'll react to a particular event. Well, that's more or less what the story of this film is about: how a man with very specific abi…More
Fuente Me gustó The Amateur 2025 no voy a decir que no pero pienso que es una película que hubiera quedado mejor como una serie de unos 4 a 6 capítulos, me imagino algo así como que cada capítulo es dedicado a cazar uno de estos tipos malos y a desarrollar alianzas y a la vez que se pueda profundizar más en el trauma del protagonista. Pero bueno no resultó así y aunque sea entretenida me parece que dejó como muchas…More

Several spy and action thrillers have premiered in recent weeks. I've seen quite a few, and some stand out for their frantic action, like Havoc for example, but The Amateur offers a distinct formula. At first glance, you might think it's more of the same, but among all the recently released films in the genre, this one is definitely worth watching.

Source *All of the images in this post were taken directly from the film.* In the midst of all the busyness and stress, I started watching movies again to ease the tension. And sometimes, whenever I watch action or war films, I catch myself falling into an old bad habit: imagining how easily people on screen shoot, injure, or kill—as if it’s all just quick reflexes and dramatic sound effects. But those thoughts comp…More

All images from IMDB and designed with Figma Hi Hivers and movie lovers, in my last movie post where I spoke about Watching the Big Bang Theory from a different Character POV, I have developed a new strategy for watching movies - stay focus on one character and imagine what it would be like to be in their shoes.

Source What a weird movie I saw, it's The Amateur was released recently I think in April this year if I remember correctly, I saw the trailer before and I had my doubts but I decided to give it a chance, I was not sure if Rami Malik could carry a whole action movie being the protagonist, is that the guy has a very particular face and it seems that he is always scared or as if he was sucking a lemon hehehehehehe. Thi…More
Source The story opens with a promise, Heller, a CIA antisocial genius, sees his life destroyed by a terrorist attack in London, however, what could be a portrait of mourning and redemption is reduced to a checklist of platitudes. Heller's transition from lab mouse to ruthless killer occurs with the speed of a montage, without building a credible motivation, his wife's death, far from being an emotional trigg…More
