Zoolander 2 (2016)

Now, at full disclaimer to you I haven't seen the first Zoolander film I must admit the second Zoolander film was quite enjoyable. Though it was quite humorous that so many people clapped in the part where Justin Bieber dies.


So plot follows the deaths of celebrities who die with the blue steel on their face to help Derek Zoolander and Hansel to save the lives of many people and to reveal the truth about Zoolander's wife's death when she was crushed by the building which was built for 'Kids Who Can't Read Good and Who Wanna Learn to Do Other Stuff Good Too'. Plus the cameo appearances of the gender neutral Benedict Cumberbatch, Billy Zane the postman and a pregnant Kiefer Sutherland.






I rate the film a 16/20.

Star Wars : The Force Awakens (2015)

     Now, I totally loved the film with its new cast with a rogue storm trooper and an orphan who has the force but, I think this seems like a remake, one of the best remakes yet still it is a remake.
An orphan finds out they have the force, they are guided by an elder gentleman and have to fight a really evil guy who refuses to see that he will loses by the third film.
    Despite this I did like the use of landscaping in the film especially the end scene which was filmed on an island off of Scotland, the new cantina which apparently J.J. Abrams helped write the music for himself and how they still are using Power point slide transition between scenes.
    It seems that with J.J. Abrams touch to it the plot seemed to thicken in places where the previous films would have holes to be built on. Also the fact that there was a female lead character played by a up and coming actress, Daisy Ridley and a female villain played by the Game of Thrones actress/model Gwendoline Christie .
 
 
I rate this as an independent film a 17/20.
However, as a film which is essentially a remake it rate it as an 18.5/20.
