Hey Steemians! Have you watched "The Greatest Showman"or "Star Wars: The Last Jedi"? I have watched them both and I find "The Greatest Showman" much more enjoyable. I am not a movie critique, and this is not meant to be a review. I am just ranting a little on the 2 movies that I have watched in December.
Below are my thoughts on the 2 movies and I promise to be spoiler-free :)
My thoughts on "Star Wars: The Last Jedi"
I have watched all Star Wars movies. I am not exactly a fan, but I truly like the franchise. I think we were all very hyped up with "The Last Jedi" and there were plenty of theories in the internet on the plot for this movie. It seems like all theories were proven wrong and I ended up having more questions than answers after watching it. The pace was a little too slow and the plot was too draggy. I think there were many unnecessary scenes that can be reduced. Also, there no epic lightsabers fight scenes this time round!! How can a Star Wars movie be without epic lightsabers fight scene?!? Ok, enough of my rants, the movie does have some good cinematography and excellent choice of colors during some of the scenes. In summary, I think you can give this a miss if you are not into Star Wars.
My thoughts on "The Greatest Showman"
"The Greatest Showman" was the direct opposite of "The Last Jedi". I didn't even hear about this movie before I watched it. If there were some hype, it sure did not reach me. I went to watch this as it was suggested by my girlfriend. And to me, it was just an usual movie date. In the end, I totally enjoyed it. The plot was somewhat predictable but there wasn't a single dull moment. Hugh Jackman did a fantastic job and he didn't remind me of Wolverine at all :). Overall, I really enjoyed the songs, music and characters; I attached my favorite song ("Never Enough") below. It was quite mind-blowing when you listen to it in the cinema:
Ok, so much for my rant. I recommend you to watch "The Greatest Showman" if you have not. And if you have already watched them both, which movie do you enjoy more? Comment below and let me know why.
Thanks!
