Watching
movies is pastime of mine when Ive got the time or budget to do so. It goes up
there with surfing the internet, playing video games, watching anime and the
likes. But I dont watch every movie out there unless its geek or otaku related
or anywhere in between. But with that being said I did managed to watch over
twelve movies this year. A lot of which are good, some not so much, then theres
a few that makes me question why I went to watch it and what Im doing with my
life.
Since my
Blog is rather new I only managed to review or score those that Ive watched
after my Blog was set up so there are a lot of movies that have yet to be
reviewed on this Blog but that doesnt necessary mean I cannot make my Top 10
best movies from 2017 can I. Mind you this is my Top 10 movies. Movies that I
really like. Im sure some of your favorite movies might not be on this list.
But thats ok. We have our own favorites. With that thing cleared lets get to
the Top 10 list.
10.
Transformers the Last Knight
Its a
good popcorn movie for the kids despite its thin plot story. The cgi fight
scenes are a step up since its not as confusing as the previous movie of this
franchise. Cogman is very funny in this one. It could have been higher on this
list if not a for a lot of wasted potential Anthony Hopkin character and a back
story that is not really explored. Not to mention a really thin plot you could
squeeze in an episode of a Transformers cartoon.
9. Cars 3
Its nice to
see Cars 3 going back to its roots which was about racing and not some spy
flick with cars. The plot is good as well despite it seeming to deviate a
little from the trailer itself. Its kind of a passing of the torch kind of
story that both kids and adults alike will enjoy.
8.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2
Guardians
of the Galaxy Vol 2 is everything would expect. Over the top action and comedy
that ends up with the heroes saving the galaxy from some galaxy threat or
another. Theres a decent plot and a little bit of feels wrap up in this as well
so you can tell they are taking this movie seriously.
A film that
fans wanted and have build a lot of hype sicne before it has aired Justice
League is a decent film that sadly falls apart due to a change of director and
bad cgi. It still is very entertaining despite its flaws and somewhat rushed
story plot.
6. Rogue
One: A Starwars Story
A movie
that put the war in Starwars. The movie tries to bridge the gap between episode
III and Episode IV of Starwars. it boast one of the most epic space battles since
the original Starwars trilogy. Sadly since its a one shot movie it suffers from
rushed undeveloped characters.
5. Thor
Ragnarok
Thor
Ragnarok follows up the events from Thor the Dark World and went for a lighter
adventurous route in story telling. It gave us the best female antagonist in
Marvel movies yet. Its fast paced quirky and theres barely any bland moment in
the film. Although seeing a tamed Hulk that doesnt go smashing everything at a
drop of a hat, but thats hardly a bad thing in this movie.
4. Wonder
Woman
For years
fans of DC and Wonder Woman has asked for a live action movies since the 80's
and they finally got what they want. This movie is good in so many levels from
its back story, its visuals and its action.
The only down side being having a strong villain build up that doesnt
really deliver in the third act.
3.
Spider-man Homecoming
The third
reboot in the Spider man movie franchise Spiderman Homecoming could be argued
as one of the best Spider man version yet. It was both quirky and funny. It
does borrow elements from other movies but does its own thing that it feels
refreshing. This movie does change the back story and characters a bit that
hardcore fans need a bit of getting used to.
2. Coco
The most
family friendly and heartwarming, funny adventurous story that came out this
year. This almost made my number one list this year due to its awesome mix of
comedy, adventure and drama. This movie also boast an plot twist worthy of a
detective novel, something rare for movies of this variety. If this movie didnt
give you the feels after watching it than your probably really dead inside.
1. Starwars
the Last Jedi
No such
movie has created so much hype and divided fans at the same time. Its showed
the Force in new exciting ways and has probably one of the best lightsaber
battle in the franchise. Its plot isnt perfect surely and some parts could
easily be omitted, yet despite these the cons this movie broke a lot of
expectations and opened up a lot of possibilities for a thirty plus years of
franchise that is mostly about the Skywalkers that I feel the franchise really
needed.
