Next Up On Critical Me: Finding Dory, Passengers, and Rouge One, and the First Two Episodes of Sherlock Season 4 (Because I can't help it). And My Favorite Childhood Movies. And this post isn't as long as the title makes it out to be.

Finding Dory 

Honestly I had really low expectations for this movie.  I had already read the finding dory coloring book to some kids I was baby sitting, and I thought I had just read the whole movie.

I actually enjoyed Finding Dory.

The movie was over all very simple, and focused more on character and humor then it did plot.

The same characters from Finding Nemo were still well developed and lovable, and the new characters in Finding Dory were also well developed and lovable.

The dialogue was pretty good.  Had it's share of corny moments and cleaver moments.

Humor was great.  I've been rather disappointed with PIXAR humor ever sense they went through that dark faze (*COUGH* Brave *COUGH* Cars 2 *COUGH*) But I greatly appreciated the Finding Dory humor.

In my own personal opinion, I thought the ending was too happy.  It all wrapped up too conveniently.  I suppose I should cut a kids movie some slack, but still.

On a scale from 1 to 10, I would give Finding Dory a 7.

Passengers 

 Emotional.  Stressful.
This movie also surprised me.  According to the previews this movie looked like a cleche space romance.
Twas a romance, and twas in space, but it was also original, well thought through, clever, and very emotional.  They were unmerciful with conflict, keeping me cringing and wondering what I'd do in such a situation.
Dialogue was moderate (too many stereotypical romance catch phrases).  Characters were likable (the conflict of the movie drove me to liking them).
Romance was...Meh.  Although being a harsh person towards romance in the first place, I suppose you should let a romantic person do the judging.  Also some *cough* 'scenes' to be aware of, so don't say I didn't warn you.
On a scale from 1 to 10, I would give Passengers an 8.

Rouge One 

Rouge one was the story between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.

Twas well done, although honestly, I found it rather boring.  If I had never seen a sci-fi movie before, I might have thought it was exciting.  As far as action and plot and dialogue, Rough One seemed no different from any other star wars.  Which isn't a bad thing.  Especially if you like star wars.  But I was falling asleep during the fight scenes, which was rather disappointing.

Humor was well done.  Dialogue wasn't very good.

Acting was so-so.  Although I was still very impressed with the characters.  They were lovable, and weren't 'dummer and weaker then the tough girl' which made me very happy.  I wasn't a fan of female main character, but was very impressed by the other characters (and who were better actors then she).

Main character wasn't all that bad though.  She wasn't 'too cool' or 'too tough,' but was realistic and had some what of a soul.

Now, unlike Finding Dory, this ending was fantastic and realistic and heart ripping.

n a scale from o1 to 10, I would give Rouge One a 7.

The first two episodes of Sherlock, season 4 (and Sherlock in general)

Normally I'd wait till the whole season ended before blogging about it, but just these first two episodes of season 4 were so amazing and heart wrenching that I simply couldn't restrain myself.

I haven't seem something so fantastic and mind blowing in a long time. 

To begin with, Sherlock (and BBC in general, but particularly Sherlock) has the most amazing dialogue in all of story creation.  Just the conversations give me chills.

The characters are well developed, the acting is so perfect, they are all so realistic and lovable that it hurts.

Never yet has a Sherlock episode been deprived of inspiration or story or brilliance.  Every episode is so different and new and clever.  I don't know how they do it.  As much as I love Doctor Who, it runs out of inspiration and plot all the time.  But Sherlock never gets dull.

I can't find anything negative to say about these first two episodes, except maybe a general PG13 awareness.

I would suggest you watch it, but in a way I don't want you to watch it because often people don't understand my fascination with some of the things I fascinated with, and if you are not fascinated with this then that would hurt my feelings.  

On a scale from 1 to 10, I would give the first to episodes of Sherlock, season 4, a 10. 

Special addition!
My childhood movies.  Not all of them, just the ones that hit me most and still do.
Ten points, a tackle hug and a personal high five for anyone who can name ALL these movies. (Some two pictures are from the same movies.  Don't get too confused).

I'm sure there are so many more I missed.
