Shockwave (Chinese)

This is a wonderful piece of art characterised with revenge, repentance and patriotism among others. The action scenes were well shot with right amount of emotion.

9/10


Whenever I see "China" and "patriotism" in the same sentence, I become suspicious.

I doubt that film can be 9/10

Anna..5.5/10
Genre: Action, Thriller


The movie has some good action scenes but basically lacks substance. The character development was zero, acting was average, the plot was cliché & very much predictable. Seriously did someone really compare this movie to John Wick cause am really shocked, and saying it was better than John Wick was simply a blasphemous statement.

Monty Python's Life of Brian...9/10
Genre: Comedy


Initially i was hesitant & skeptic about seeing this flick, cause i thought it was meant to ridicule Jesus but no, it wasn't. It simply took a clever poke at fanatic followers of any religion & political movement.
A laugh-out-loud flick at it's finest. The acting was really astonishing & so was the plot. If you've got a weak faith, please steer clear of this one.

Event Horizon..7/10
Genre: Fantasy, Mystery


A decent horror/sci-fi flick in space. Story and acting were very much all right, cinematography was excellent, the lighting gave the flick a very spookish feeling which engaged me all through the flick. The special effects and sound effects were also good. I guess this was what the movie Infini strived to be, but fell short. It was no masterpiece, but i truly fancied it for what it was.

You obviously don't know much about the Bible or just trying to play eye service because of what KoiceReloaded will think of you.

This movie is a classic example of blasphemy and ridicule.

It wasn't though. Mekaprime echoed my sentiments when I reviewed the film.

KoiceReloaded:
The Life of Brian

This satirical masterpiece from Monty Python is terribly misunderstood. Some people would swear it's a sacrilegious film that mocks Jesus and christianity, but it couldn't be further from the truth. Monty Python actually went out of their way to be respectful to the character and intent of Jesus, while mocking false prophets, hypocrisy, herd mentality, and tyranny.

Even though I have seen it countless of times, the Biggus Dickus scene never cease to draw a chuckle out of me. It's a comedic masterpiece.

The story behind this scene; They brought in extras to play the guards, and the extras were told that they won't get paid if they so much as crack a smile. Anyhoo, the scene was pure torture for the poor souls... you could see they were trying their damndest not to laugh. grin grin

9.5/10

Why should a parody be made of something millions of people worship be made in the first place?

Can he dare to do same to the Islamic religion?

You haven't answered my question. Tell me how it mocked Jesus.
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 7:11pm On Sep 19, 2019
It is a mockery of what Christianity stands for and it was subsequently banned in some countries at the time of its release.

If you can't see the mockery, the joke is on you.


I don't have time for unnecessary merry-go-rounding

When it was initially released, yes, it was banned in some countries because of some misconceptions. Many people didn't understand satires back then, and took the film at face value. I mean, Finland had had to warn their citizens the film was a satire, lest people take offence.

It's ridiculous that there are people pegging a movie that barely featured Jesus (and when it did, he was played straight and with respect), as a mockery on Christians.

Yes. Monthy python. I remember now. I wanted to download some movies but couldn't remember them.

Actually, the joke's on you, since you cannot dig up a single scene in the film or credible reason to back up your absurd stance. A lot of films get banned for political/religious reasons, it's nothing new.

The film is now widely accepted as a satire that honored Jesus and mocked the sheeples.

The losers...7/10
Genre: Action, Adventure, Crime


Nothing new here, it was basically gun fights & explosions. There were lots of plot inconsistencies, but it works in its own way by playing the loose logic, an attribute i totally fancied the flick for, cause it didn't take itself too seriously, and neither should you.

Lolz, seeing that you are an Atheist & probably saw the said movie with the aid of your Atheist lens, argue with you, i shall not. And FYI, you were the main reason i checked out the movie, so no day call koicereloaded.

If you love science fiction, I suggest you bookmark a YouTube channel named DUST. The channel contains very well made sci-fi shorts with decent to high production quality and VFX.

Don't envy me ooo.

To balance account as a self employed individual no be beans.
My money wey dey debtors hands this week alone is more enough to pay seven people's minimum wage.


That is a headache salary earners don't have.

Don't let people deceive you ooo.
Self employment no be moimoi.
Bankruptcy is real.
