TRAVEL TO MOVIES: WILDLING

Director: Fritz Böhm

Cast: Bel Powley , Liv Tyler , Brad Dourif , Collin Kelly-Sordelet , James LeGros , Mike Faist

Plot: A teenage girl's coming of age comes with a terrifying twist in this spellbinding take on the werewolf legend. Since birth, Anna (Bel Powley) has been raised in isolation by a man she knows only as Daddy (Chucky star Brad Dourif) who has done everything possible to conceal the truth about the girl's origins from her. But when the teenage Anna is suddenly thrust into the real world under the protection of no-nonsense police officer Ellen (Liv Tyler), it soon becomes clear that the young woman is far from ordinary. Unable to adjust to a normal life, Anna finds herself drawn instead to the wild freedom of the forest while struggling to resist the growing bloodlust that has awakened inside her. This moodily atmospheric thriller combines supernatural scares with a myth-like tale of self discovery.

My Movie Review: The movie is promising supernatural craft hidden in the dark of the woods:) Wildling is outlandish horror that waited for its prey to attack before unleashing her inner beast! Lots of hidden gems found in this film the legendary werewolf stage gone wild quite disgusting but brilliant when bloody tooth come off that's the turning point as it became raw and effective:) Bel Powley is ferocious unpredictable act worth seeing performance of untamed coming of age monster teen in a world full of uncertainty confused on her existence and what path to choose? Collin Kelly-Sordelet is a breath of fresh air his presence keeps this movie light balancing the darkness of Anna making romantic gesture like company in the woods until she found the light!

Critics Consensus: A clever, sharp-fanged mélange of classic midnight-movie horror and modern indie ingenuity. The first hour or so of the movie was honestly quite good in my opinion. The acting, while not being great was good enough, the story was interesting and it succeeded at being an original monster movie. A supernatural “What’s Happening to My Body?” parable in company with “Carrie,” “Ginger Snaps” and last year’s “Thelma,” Wildling is low-key with an undertone of menace, skillfully directed by Fritz Böhm in his feature debut (though some of his nighttime scenes are so dark it genuinely hard to tell what really going on).

My Movie Review: The movie is outdated due to late released like cable flick you see in HBO. There's nothing wrong with that cause I have fun watching in cable TV but we seen this kind of  Wolf Of Wall Street is hit back 5 years ago and new films must be brought out in the big screen Billionaire Boys Club is kind simpler version of War Dogs two boys involved in rick-quick scam! The young cast like Ansel Elgort, Taron Egerton, Emma Roberts, Billie Lourd, was the reason you want to see this and unexpected deadly shot are the strength that's why its still watchable:) Kevin Spacey is not edit out in this film despite his recent allegation controversy in Hollywood:(

Fun Facts: Ansel Elgort and Taron Egerton were both in the running for the role of young Han Solo in Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018).  Emma Roberts was originally to join the fifth season of American Horror Story (2011), but she dropped out in order to shoot this movie. Unlike with All the Money in the World (2017), Kevin Spacey's performance was kept intact despite sexual misconduct allegations. Judd Nelson, who here plays Ryan Hunt, played Joe Hunt in Billionaire Boys Club (1987). Ansel Elgort and Kevin Spacey also starred in Baby Driver (2017), although this film shot first. Billie Lourd, Emma Roberts, and Deneen Tyler all in Scream Queens (2015).

My Movie Review: The movie is sensational the upbeat song number put infectious emotions! Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again is a musical sequel that embraces it's silliness to the point it's becoming part magical to the feels and amusing to the eyes with funny moment most the time:) Meryl Streep is the spirit of the first film her character's untimely passing come as shock that I didn't saw coming until Amanda Seyfried pick-up the pieces and re-build the hotel for her mom. Lily James is capturing youth as she plays Young Donna who seeks life-changing trip as she find love and heartbreak in place she settle in cheerful presence radiant in the beautiful island:)

Movie News: Five years since the events of Mamma Mia, Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) plans to re-open the renovated Hotel Bella Donna with a party reuniting her family and friends. Nearly 30 years earlier, a young Donna (Lily James) ventures on a life-changing summer holiday that will lead her to the three loves of her life, and the Greek island of Kalokairi. With its all-star cast (Streep! Firth! Brosnan!), relentless and all-killer ABBA soundtrack, Mamma Mia! might just be the The Godfather of so-camp-it’s-classic jukebox musicals. Kudos to writer-director Ol Parker for pitching the cleverly titled sequel Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again part sequel reuniting the original cast, part prequel recounting the summer that first brought Donna to Kalokairi, Greece!
