Ready or Not 2: Here I Come - A Worthwhile Sequel to the Amazing 2019 Horror Comedy

Finally this movie was made available in Indonesia after premiering in the US roughly one month ago. It was released on Wednesday but due to my busy schedule, my wife and I only got the chance to see it yesterday. We saw it in the nearest cinema from our home. Without further ado, here's more on the film.

Brief Story Line

Immediately after the events in the first movie, Grace (Samara Weaving - Eenie MeanieGuns Akimbo etc) was hospitalized and got a visit from her estranged younger sister Faith (Kathryn Newton - Ant-man and the Wasp: QuantumaniaDetective Pikachu etc). Unfortunately, Grace must rejoin the game as explained by the Lawyer (Elijah Wood - The Toxic Avenger, Sin City etc) where she had to avoid being killed before dawn once again. Despite her flat rejection, Grace had no choice but to play as Faith was being used as collateral.

Balls Up - A Terrible Totally Not Funny Raunchy Comedy Movie

I did not realize there was new movie released by Prime Video two days ago and only noticed it yesterday. It looked like a fun comedy movie and since I was in the middle of a rather depressing series, I thought it would be a nice distraction for a while and watched it last night. All right then, let's get right to it.

Brief Story Line

Elijah DeBell (Paul Walter Hauser - PlaydateInside Out 2 etc) and Brad Lewison (Mark Wahlberg - Play DirtyDaddy's Home 2 etc) worked for a condom company who were trying to be the sponsor for 2025 Football World Cup Championship in Brazil. Elijah and Brad managed to convince Senior Santos (Benjamin Bratt - Coco, Law and Order TV series etc), the person in charge of sponsorship to appoint their company. However everything did not go as planned as they somehow managed to screw things up.

Thrash - An Enjoyable Enough Survival Thriller Movie

Two days ago, this film was made available on Netflix as part of their usual Friday new movie release. I thought the premise looked interesting so I did not hesitate to give it a try. So how was the movie then? Let us find out more, shall we?

Brief Story Line

When a category 5 hurricane called Henry was going to pass through the East Coast, the government of Annieville town which was right in the middle advised their people to evacuate. Unfortunately there were some who were still in town like Lisa (Phoebe Dynevor - Inheritance, Bridgerton TV series etc), a pregnant woman who was driving to get out of town, Dakota (Whitney Peak - Hocus Pocus 2, Gossip Girl 2021 series etc) a young woman who was alone in her house and trio of siblings Ron (Stacy Clausen - True Spirit docudrama etc) and his younger sister Dee (Alyla Browne - Sonic the Hedgehog 3 etc) & brother Will (Dante Ubaldi) who were told to stay inside the house with their foster parents.
