A Man In His Thirties

Rating: Null/10 (10 May 2020)

Look I am of a certain age that I remember when movies were fantastic. they had to be different, appealing to the senses, above and beyond normalcy and generally make us feel we are getting treated.
It seems all of that has disappeared from movies nowadays. The stories make no sense and no explanation is bothered with. The women are as plain or ugly as any women (indeed in many cases like the new Star Wars trilogy they are uglier than women I would see walking by anywhere). The sole exception recently was Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, which not coincidentally depicted a time long gone. The explicit or implicit messaging is non-existent and shunned in favor of just having a franchise and so on and on it goes.
The Rise Of Skywalker is just such a movie. I am a man. I have limited time and money. If movies do not want to cater to my brain or my heart or my loin then why bother?
I can simply stay at home and feel the breeze in my balcony (and maybe a pretty girl in a short skirt will also walk by and that would cost me nothing).
