Cherry (2021)
Unnecessary
Wow this was one of the worst films I have ever seen!
The first half was just an unnecessary in your face mess, it improved after Cherry came back from war but just as it started to get good it turned messy again. I thought the scene where he finally gets caught by the police would have been the perfect ending but again they ruined it with the epilogue.
I couldn't even really appreciate any of the performances because everything else was just so distracting, they somehow managed to make Tom Holland unlikeable and unwatchable.
I really just can't say anything good about this film, even the music was distracting.
Leaves you feeling unnecessarily depressed and unsatisfied, again the whole thing was just so unnecessary and this is a film that I sadly think should never have been made.
Chaos Walking (2021)
I adored it
I loved the Chaos Walking trilogy and I loved this film.
There are definitely a lot of changes from the book/s but they still kept the fundamental elements that made me fall in love with Todd and Viola and the story/world. The ending was very different but considering that a sequel is off the table I was very satisfied with it.
It was emotional, funny and very unique. Just an overall enjoyable experience and I left with a smile on my face, definitely one to see on the big screen if you can.
Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley were the perfect actors to portray Todd and Viola and they brought so much genuine emotion to the characters, particularly Tom who was incredibly believable throughout. The actors who played Ben and Cillian were also a particular stand out for me as they made a big and important emotional impact with little screentime.
My only complaint is that there is still so much more in the books to explore that I would love to see but given the circumstances I am very happy with what we got.
