Here we go.
Again.
Banner sized picture.
Anywho, today I wanted to talk aboot The guest.
Actually before that, I'd like to recap on my week.
It was an okay week.
Okay, back to the review.
Actually, before that, I want to talk about Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice.
It was an okay movie. Just kidding.
This movie was poor. I can't believe it took me this long (a day) to decide on my own personal opinion on this, but my feelings were pretty negative. Honestly, I wanted to skip on this movie and just read rotten tomato reviews, but my friend dragged me along for the ride and boy was it a draaaaag.
None of the scenes were cohesive at all. Transitions between one moment to another were a mess. Imagine shooting a movie, right? Cool, it's time to take it to post. Slap it in sony vegas tonight and call it a day, you've earned yourself a wank session. Come back the next moment and you find out that a toddler (Zack Snyder) has jumped on your computer and decided the movie's fate! And nothing makes sense!
Too proud is he to let you change it up! You just smile and nod and post it on Youtube for the world to see, regardless of the impending harsh criticism of your peers and strangers on the internet!
And that's what happened to my home videos and career as a director.
But Zack Snyder then grew up to be an asshole! Who fucked up Batman vs. Superman! Wow man have some chill!
Scene to scene, nothing lasts more than a minute. Really. Check it out. This is the outcome of stuffing anything and everything you could into a movie. The 'impactful' moments of the trailer? Snuffed. They had NO impact in the movie at all. Lex Luthor's character is absolutely poor. Who tries to come off as crazy becoming more crazy is just plain awkward. Jesse Eisenberg :( Shame on you. BUT Ben Affleck? He destroys Batman's character. Stern, decisive, and thoughtful, Ben was the opposite. I'm not sure what he thought of as Batman's character, but he decided to act like a plank for most of the movie. Also what the fuck, just throw in more DC characters why don't you. I get that Marvel is ahead of the game, but you really don't need to play catch up to be a great franchise. Still, there were some really good scenes. Batman's parents being killed? I am not being facetious, it was very well shot and the trauma on the kid's face was pretty accurate to how a kid would go about that scene. The ending was really good, too, where the whole team finally gets together for a pretty rompous fight. The banter was playful, and the fight scene was very well made. The rest of the movie is just gloomy and broody, like the other DC movies. Honestly, this would be a terrific direction to take these movies, I would not mind it at all. Too bad the rest of the movie just blew. Introducing Wonder Woman and the rest of the League later would have been better for me, rather than sprinkling them through out the movie. Please, if for the sake of the movie, don't forshadow the fucking sequel for two hours. Focus on the actual plot and deliver something memorable you fucking twat.
WHATEVER
Oh yeah, the game.
The guest is cool.
The end.
Just kidding though.
The game is basically a first person point and click adventure. Think of one of those escape room games in real life, and put it into a game perspective. If you haven't been to an escape room, I recommend it. It's actually pretty fun, and sometimes you get matched with a group of randoms. Making friends has never been this awkward and suffocating before!
Still prreeeetty cool.
Anywho, storywise, it's okay. Pretty neat things happen, and you wonder who you are the whole time. But you find out eventually. That's pretty much it.
Uh, soundwise, nothing really memorable.
Gameplay, holy shit some parts were absolutely frustrating. Fucking forest dream maze bullshit, and some of the puzzles will need a walkthrough. And then some are so blatant and trivial. The difference between the difficulty ramps is frustrating at times. BUT, for the puzzles that are really difficult, solving them yourself feels so damn satisfying. I'll give it that.
Score? uh
7/10
Despite my heavy bitching, I view the game in a positive light. Really, I do.
Goals
