Transformers Age of Extinction Movie Review


I feel like this review is long overdue, but I just saw it last week lol. This was my #1 movie I was looking forward too this year. U know it didn't disappoint me, but it didnt blow me away either. Its like the Transformers bar has been raised to ridiculously high expectations.

Im not going to have spoilers here. I liked Mark W. in this. He did his thing. His character was really likeable. The guy with the glasses is also pretty cool once he...ok no spoilers. The dino bots were dope, but too bad they were at the back of the movie. The movie is dark, way darker than Dark of the Moon(iRonic right?). Age of Extinction keeps you guessing which is cool. Theres man made Transformers who...okay i'll stop. The villains are pretty cool. Optimus kicks ass as usual, but not as much as Im used to seeing. Maybe it's because hes up against tough Transformers. The Autobots are also pretty likeable here too.

The movie is a bit long, but honestly, I didnt care. I wanted a little bit more. Perhaps for the first time in the series, humans have a big impact on the fate of Earth. There's good ones, and lots of bad ones(for the first time). Do i miss Shia? Hell yeah. Should they have mentioned him...of course. Should he have made a cameo since this movie is just 5 years after movie 3? Hell yeah. Overall i really liked this movie. I give it 9/10. Or 4.5 stars outta 5 for you movie folk. Go see it if you haven't already.

Album Review: Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign-Vultures 1

 This album review is way overdue. I've had a long time to sit with the album....I really liked it at first but it hasn't really aged as well as other Kanye projects. Kanye's lyricism has taken a noticeable decline. I mean hes not horrible but alot of these bars are bad or tasteless. Ty Dolla $ign on the other hand does a great job on pretty much every track. The production though, as with most Kanye albums is really good.   Some of it was reminiscent of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy or Yeezus. There are a few guest spots and most are well used. Hearing Kanye's daughter, North West, on "Talking"is cute. Freddie Gibbs steals the show on the hilarious "Back to Me". "Carnival" is a certified hit which features Playboi Carti & Rich the Kid. Overall most of these songs are good but I cant say this really adds much to Kanye's illustrious discography. Lyrics 19 Beats 23 Depth 22 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Album Review: Kid Cudi-Insano (regular version)

 I gotta admit I didn't like this album that much when I first heard it over half a year ago. I've heard that Kid Cudi doesn't exactly play to his strengths....that's partly true. I do like his rapping here tho. Honestly most songs here kinda blend together....."Keep Bouncin'" is really hype....and it gets the album off to a good start. "At The Party" with Pharrell Williams and Travis Scott may be my favorite song. "Wow" with A$AP Rocky is another highlight. Overall tho I feel this album tries too hard to be trendy. Cudi needed to put more of his pain into it. I mean a happy Cudi album isn't a bad thing but it really seems odd to me. You're not getting alot of singing or hums here know what I mean? However the production I found to be very good. Cudi is one of my favorite rappers like top 20 and I guess this will do for 2024. Lyrics 20 Beats 23 Depth 21 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Video Game Review: Jedi Survivor

 About a week ago or so I beat Star Wars Jedi Survivor. Im so happy I got a chance to play it cause they put it on PS4....yes I sadly as of early 2025 do not have a PS5 yet. But anyways I thought the game was considerable improvement over Jedi Fallen Order in most ways.  The game is set a few years after the end of the first game. One thing I like is you keep all your Jedi techniques from the first game Jedi Fallen Order. You can force push and pull and double jump right from the jump. Early in the game you also get access to a new lighstaber form dual wield. In this game there are 5 lightsaber forms. Single is good in any situation but not the best for ideal situations. I think double bladed has good defense but low range. Dual wield is fast but has low defense. Later on you get access to a blaster form which has great range. Then there's the Cross-guard which is Kylo Ren's lightsaber form...its slow in this game but has high damage and defense to it. The enemy variety in the...
