I have only watched a part of the first season and I find it moderately entertaining.
What I think the main problem is, is that to some extent it's glamorizing and exploiting teenage suicide.
The main character who narrates the story and who has tragically committed suicide is a normal high school girl, who is mostly going through problems that countless other teenage girls go through.
The problem is, while she's alive, she's not particularly interesting or popular and the kids around her don't see her or treat her as anything special. She only becomes the main character after she kills herself.
I have seen this 'be the main character' narrative in a lot of social media directed towards gen Z, so a story where a socially awkward girl becomes 'the main character' and everyone talks about her and the story centers on her, but only after killing herself, is potentially dangerous.
It's also exploitative, glamorizing the death of a pretty teenage girl. It never goes deep enough into the horrible details and grief around a young person taking their own life.
I think a series that centers around the suicide of a teenager should be done much more responsibly and be much more educational than this series could ever hope to be.

Oh boy, this sure is a movie. I don't really know how to feel about it, it's just bad. I left the movie theater disappointed. So I'm not even gonna say anything about the movie. Carnage is great tho. So if you wanna watch it, then turn off your brain and try. It's short, so you don't have to suffer.

I LOVE trains! The trailer was full of action, destrucinon, great actors and, well, trains. I must wach it! So I did. Trains were there, yes. Some of destrucion was there, yes. Every single thing from the trailer and nothing more. The actors were there, yes. Good actors with garbage script. Action? Well, no. Most of the action was made by spinning camera, shaking camera, twirling camera... Spinning around the train, the helicopters, the characters, the grass, spinning ALL THE TIME! So dissapointing...

I was so disappointed watching this movie , I am a die hard marvel fan and this has to be one of the worst marvel movies I've seen, Thor dark world was serious and dark loved it, and the humour in this ruined it, will they have the same humour in infinite wars doubt it so why ruin this film so disappointed!

Guy who never directed movie and is stunt crew made a movie... Of course result will be such... Whoever liked a bit of this movie should be forcefully castrated. Dialogs, acting, story line... everything is wrong with this "movie".

If I had to watch this again I'd lose my mind. This was such a slow moving movie that tried way too hard to be something much deeper than it really is. Run, run as fast as you can away from this series.

The show started good in the first season and since than it has gone downhill. Who in the correct mind frame will create a character like Oni. I can't stand her. I don't think I will be watching the 4 season.

As someone who has explored hypnotism in depth, the concepts behind Inception were relatively easy to comprehend, and I enjoyed the novel idea of dreams within dreams within dreams. But the plot does seem to get caught up trying to be too clever with the prologue and epilogue, and I would agree with some critics who accuse it of almost collapsing in on itself. I think it just manages to keep interest, but that may be solely because I have experienced very deep trances in hypnosis, and understood the ideas suggested by the film.
Visually the film uses rather interesting spectacle to show how dreams may collapse in on themselves, and tries to keep you guessing as to who is attempting what. It is, at times, stunning to watch. But overall the film fails to develop an interesting idea to the maximum.
The acting is reasonable rather than good.
Not in the same league as Minority Support (for example) but reasonable sci-fi.

Of course the 3D effects are good here, although I prefer the original Avatar. There's something about the new version that seems too clinical visually. There is a story but it doesn't grab the viewer. When watching this 3 hour epic I found myself wondering how much longer it would drag on. The biggest problem for me was the lack of real actors. Of course the voices of prominent actors were used but in the original Avatar film the viewer could actually see most of them. In "The Way of Water" we see mostly computer generated Avatars. After a while this becomes boring because these creatures look very alike.

While the original Lion King will always be a classic, Disney's 2019 remake is nearly a shot for shot remake but lacks the tiny idiosyncrasies that makes the original a classic. Do not waste your time and money on this cash grab

Had a great expectation but I am frustrated. The plot was centered Dhaka, capital city of Bangladesh but the film shot in India. The buildings and infrastructures are shown like entire dhaka is a slum. Dhaka has much more to offer than what is shown in the movie. The worst part is the language. Being native speaker it was awful to hear that most of the spelling and accent is false because non Bangla speakers were acting when its supposed be Bangla speakers. Netflix could have done far better.

Production and set design, even the casting is great, top notch. The writing on the other hand is pretty bad. Cookie cutter TV writing. 9 to 5 writers that just spew conflict lines that add nothing and rarely builds suspense. Zero creativity. Lame. Character development, blah. Could have been great.

The intent is to provide viewers with a sense of pride and accomplishment for unlocking different soldiers.
As for cost, we selected initial values based upon data from the Open CGI Beta and other adjustments made to milestone rewards before the theaters. Among other things, we're looking at average per-viewer credit earn rates on a daily basis, and we'll be making constant adjustments to ensure that viewers have challenges that are compelling, rewarding, and of course attainable via screenplay.
We appreciate the candid feedback, and the passion the community has put forth around the current topics here on Reddit, our forums and across numerous social media outlets.
Our team will continue to make changes and monitor community feedback and update everyone as soon and as often as we can.
Apparently I'll have to my personal rates up to 8.4 I guess...
This was Call of Duty if it was made into a movie... No depth.

I don't like it because Henry Do not know how to act and the cgi is like Garbage

Nothing about this show worked for me. Watched this on Prime & was expecting something similar quality wise to 'The Boys' but no this show ended up being a massive let down.

This was a very muddy show.
The plot is at times extremely hard to follow at one point I watched half an episode before realizing these events took place in the PAST! OH! No wonder it was so bleeding confusing.
A lot of the dialogue is strange too? Occasionally someone will say something or several things and I say " What? Huh? " and that's the end of that weirdness and on to the next.
Look I'm kind of annoyed they could have made a very shallow show out of this and it still would have been entertaining it's a guy killing monsters.
This stuff however is extremely pretentious and not very fun to watch.
Henry Cavill does his job as Henry does and he gives it effort and I appreciated him.
Otherwise the show has THE BEST fantasy bard I've ever seen. You have not seen a bard such as this. Wow. Incredible. His songs are way better than they ought to be too.
The rest of the show is quite the trudge through muddy dialogue, flashbacks that blend right in with the last scene so you have no idea it is one.
Best Bard Ever. Ever.

After all the MCU movies that have been made, the plots are getting predictable, and for some reason they don't change the writing. You know who's going to be the main villain, you know what's gonna happen. It's so BORING! They're all the same..

Marvel really outdid themselves with this show. What a beautiful, torturous story of grief, trauma and suffering, additionally unafraid to show that grief drowns everything around when left uncontrolled.
The only thing to criticize is Marvel's structure, that is, the need to make everything lead into everything else. Fun at the beginning, tiring by now, and significantly dragging down the last episode of the show. But this was to be expected, so complaining about it is not very productive.
Show leaves you excited for Phase 4 and makes you appreciate the characters to a new level.

The series begins by showing what it would be like from now on, a suspenseful show and a well-written script. At least, in my opinion, I managed to capture well what happened on screen, as well as I felt good emotions while the story was being told.
Years after the series was released, I can still enjoy what I watch, and I hope they recover and maintain that good essence of great music, impeccable filming, vivid performances and real, memorable dialogue.
Stranger Things is a show to watch getting inside the characters' skin and imagining yourself in each situation, hoping that D&D doesn't come true, and that the Demogorgon never catches you.

"Queen" is a film that is no less tangy than the "gol gappas" that Rani Mehra rustles up in an Italian pizzeria in faraway Amsterdam.The bright and breezy Rani does not require even "two minutes" (that is how long it takes the heroine's culinary output to activate the first Dutch buyer's unaccustomed taste buds) to work its magic. Similarly, the film too, hits its straps from the very outset.
"Queen" is spicy, balmy and uplifting. Like good "gol gappas", it leaves a zesty aftertaste that lingers on until long after the ride has ended. It warms the heart and tickles the funny bone with equal force. No sooner does the film open in the home of a West Delhi sweetmeats vendor amid the hustle and bustle of an impending wedding, than it becomes amply apparent that the audience is in for a treat of an unprecedented kind.
"Queen", thanks to a remarkably crisp and sophisticated screenplay (Parvez Shaikh, Chaitally Parmar and Director, Vikas Bahl), and infectiously lively dialogues written by Anvita Dutt and Kangana Ranaut herself, is like a wonderful puff of fresh air. The film makes a female- oriented statement, but it does not put forth even an iota of feminism at its core for display like an obtrusive pennant. The statement is subtle yet clear, and more importantly it's highly pertinent even in today's pseudo-modern Indian demographic. The film embeds its message (for want of a better word) within the structure of a thought-provoking drama that is consistently funny and frequently prudent.
And what a Queen Kangana Ranaut makes! Whoever knew that this often underrated actress had such enormous reserves of talent? Ranaut is given a character that is sweetly quirky and yet as everyday as they come. She embraces Rani Mehra with such lightness, grace, and understanding that her very presence lights up every frame she is in. Rani Mehra, an over-protected middle class girl who has never stepped out of her home all by herself and is chaperoned around the neighborhood by her kid brother, is stood up by her London-returned fiancé only two days before the wedding. More alarming is the fact that her fiancé had proposed to her on his own free will, and this wasn't an impending marriage via the age-old Indian, arranged marriage syndrome. At her wit's end and in danger of retreating into a shell of self-pity, the guileless Rani, with a bit of moral support from her granny and her surprisingly supportive father, takes off on a solo European honeymoon.
This unusual plot premise could easily have lost its way in an alien land and ended up proffering pat platitudes on the vagaries of life. Fortunately it doesn't. Bahl's assured direction opts for sustained subtlety and temperance instead of seeking to play to the gallery. It is in the manner in which the individual scenes play out – Bahl does not hold a single moment in the film a second longer than is absolutely essential – that the secret of the appeal of "Queen" lies.
As the pure, chaste, and absolutely uncontaminated Rani comes in contact with the big, bad world out there, she makes mistakes as frequently as she makes friends. In the bargain, a whole new universe opens up for her. In a secluded Paris bylane, she fends off a mugger and is thrilled to bits about the act of bravado. She befriends a half-Indian, half- Parisian hotel staffer and single mom Vijaylaxmi (Lisa Haydon as a revelation) and, in all her innocence, advises her not to sleep with all and sundry. Lap dancer, graffiti artist, musician, tsunami victim – Rani meets all manner of new people and instinctively connects with them.
Rani wears her innate innocence like a shield against the pitfalls that she faces on her incredible sojourn of discovery through Paris and Amsterdam, where she finds herself and a lot more than she could have bargained for, including her first kiss and with an Italian hunk at that. Kangana Ranaut is the heart and soul of Queen and she does not strike a single false note. Her rendition of the titular character is without a shred of doubt, one of the best performances in the annals of Indian cinema. It is a performance that should define not only her career from here on, but also the fate of any young Bollywood actress seeking to push the boundaries of what is acceptable within the framework of the commercial Hindi movie industry.
But also do spare a thought for Rajkummar Rao, who plays the utterly unlikeable, if not out-and-out obnoxious, Vijay Dhingra. He brings remarkable restraint to bear upon his interpretation of the disgustingly conservative city slicker who cannot see beyond his nose. Rarely has an object of derision stood his ground with as much firm intent as he does. Don't miss "Queen" for anything. It is a sparkling gem of a film.

... that old dude was doin' sex stuff with some kind of fish creature.
So, don't write a book on IMDB about loneliness, and isolation, and guilt. Because, if you were forced to describe this movie with as few words as possible, you would say that the angsty vampire from Twilight (2008) plays an angsty lighthouse employee, where dudes do sex things with fish creatures.

Pulp Fiction is a movie all credited to its director....Mr. Q. T. This movie is such an amazing and fast track of events all tied up nicely and cohesively that one can't deny its grandeur.
But here comes the boom. It is a highly un-required movie that is overrated just due to its above mentioned qualities. But when something is made there must be a purpose behind its existence but the film is so useless and itchy that in my opinion this film is not the best film in history of cinema. Yes the film has a huge potential to influence movie making and direction but it itself is nothing but a crap of laughable and senseless events.
So to mention Sir i am not buying any of this movie but lets just consider the direction and cohesion of events.

Taking the joy and levity of the Mattel dynasty that is Barbie, and throwing the perfect figure into real world social issues creates an excellent fish-out-of-water plot. Addressing gender issues in a bright and (mostly) light-hearted manner gives the film an excellent moral without becoming preachy. Anyone vehemently against messages transmitted in the film must have strong opinions on whether these issues are a reality, as there is nothing controversial here, just a doll tackling common sense.
Success comes from the film's perfect casting. Robbie could not be bettered, with a positive and bubbly attitude wonderfully transitioning through something as dark as an existential crisis. Even issues around her character supposedly losing her beauty are brilliantly maneuvered through some excellent fourth-wall breaking.
Gosling leans into the camp brainlessness of his Ken to create a persona both lovable and problematic, but most importantly hilarious. The wider cast is star-studded, the roster of Barbies and Kens including the likes of McKinnon, Liu and Cera, with real-world characters from Ferrera and Ferrell. All this added to with ridiculous cameos throughout.
Brilliantly funny, the dialogue and comedy can range from deadpan to daft depending on the scenario. Easter eggs are thrown in throughout and even those without an interest in the doll growing up can at least appreciate the references on show.
Fantastic costuming and props, the brightness of Barbieland is joyous to see and so perfectly contrasted with in the real world. A real directorial masterclass from Gerwig, somehow offering a fun perspective on gender inequalities.

Lots of symbolisms. Intelligent humor with some dumb jokes. Easy to watch.

When Ant Man gets really big, shouldn't have become just a bigger easy target given he has no real powers? And when will there be a giant Ant Man vs. Godzilla movie? Come on Hollywood get it together! Anywho, this over-earnest summer popcorn movie comes out under the banner of Captain America played by the charisma-free but purdy Chris Evans but secretly and wisely treats RDJ's Tony Stark as the main attraction. A boatload of other characters clog the film many becoming forgettable during actual scenes (oh yeah, Bucky the Winter Soldier IS still in this shot). The film also makes the George Lucas second Star Wars series of spending too much time listening to politicians argue about characters who could be performing some action scene. Not that the movie lacks for action, it just comes in prolonged, interminable sequences particularly an ending fight between "Cap" and Ironman (oh, yeah and Bucky, he was in much of that scene) which goes on longer than The Thrilla in Manilla and yet doesn't resolve much. The movie does provide more Easter eggs than your Aunt Sally's for her annual egg hunt which will give you something to do rather than listen to the rebellious, free-thinking maverick Tony Stark incongruously argue for United Nations oversight. In short, yeah, you know it's not any of the Fantastic Four movies but not quite the first Ironman.

I don't understand the negative reviews for this show. The script and acting are far from bad, and the plot is engaging and pulls you along. For those who have read the Witcher books 1 and 2, the strange timeline of plots is not too difficult to comprehend. I personally loved seeing Renfri, nekkers, and the striga brought to life. Also, my single most favorite story was featured with Borch Three Jackdaws. What a great episode!

This feels like a low-key arty indulgence, but it has a wonderful comedic and addictive presence that worms and warms its way into your heart as the season(s) unfold.
Tenants in a building end up deep in a murder mystery and make a podcast about it.
The only thing that leaves me a little sad about this is that Steve Martin's energetic and hilarious comic genius is played down and suppressed, probably so everyone else has a chance to shine.
Selena Gomez really shines like the star she is. Such beautiful and natural talent. She plays a cynical and somewhat acerbic millennial that confounds the ageing characters of Steven Martin and Martin Short.

I saw this movie in theaters, and it was the funniest movie I've seen in years. It was extremely well done, and I was quite surprised that the humor translated so well form Chinese to English subtitles. The compositing was masterful, and the kung fu was very entertaining. Overall, this was my top movie of 2004/2005.
Unfortunately, the same does not ring true of the recent DVD release. Rife with anticipation, I bought the DVD the day it was released. Sadly enough, it has apparently been re-edited into an inferior version. Several shots were altered or removed completely, and the subtitles were changed into less funny dialogue. It's amazing what a few "tweaks" can do to ruin a great film.
If you can find a copy of the theatrical release, I highly recommend it, but if all you can find is the DVD release, don't bother. It's simply not as enjoyable.

Where did these type of movies went? This is a pure funny film with great story and great performances. The editing is great and you. never get bored. Bring us back more movies like this one. I should make a good research to find similar movies.

This is very stylish. The colour in the opening sequence would not look out of place in a 1950s Hollywood Musical. Nolan loves cinema and this is the definition of cinematic. This though does detract somewhat from the events on screen, harrowing as they are. It's beautifully made though and Nolan puts you right in the heart of the ever increasing tension. Now I don't know how accurate this is, but I'll assume they did their homework and it's close enough to actual events and with that in mind, as with all depictions of war, I'm reminded how utterly hopeless it all seems. I find it impossible to watch things like this and not wonder how I'd cope. It's not a pleasant thought and therefore a good reason to thank Nolan for that degree of separation. The acting is good, the characters work well, but it's all about the spectacle. The dog fights, with cameras twisting in mind boggling contortions, the perilous nature of the lumbering ships, the soldiers, not as individuals, but the mass of people. I'd be lying if I said the hair didn't stand up on the back of my neck when someone shouts hopefully "Spitfire" as the plane majestically sweeps the screen, but much of the film is build up for the third act, up until then it's all primer, as the time jumps that have kept the film just about ticking converge into the predictable rousing climax. The events that took place at Dunkirk will bring a tear to your eye, as will this film. This isn't so much a war film as a survival film and despite its shortcomings, it's overarching bleakness delivers the point.

Most of the comments I would have made have already been covered (by those giving less than 5 stars anyway) - from the box-ticking diversity, to the misandry, lack of chemistry, poor acting, unlikeable characters (of which, the Dr Smith actress is the direst of the dire), and the generally bland and inconsistent writing.
Much of the negative issues above are it seems, an unavoidable and undesirable (in my opinion of course) necessity of getting productions to screen in 2018.
On the plus side is plenty of money splashed out on special effects (which is always a big plus for me), in particular, the robot of course.
Not much else to redeem it, but the moderately interesting cliffhanger at the end of episode 10 (and the fact that virtually all other shows these days suffer from the same political correctness) means that I'll probably tune in to the next instalments, whenever that might be.
Given that it's a typical example of what is on offer out there lately, I'll give it a very average '5'.

I will actually give this show a overall 5.5 or 7 in some good scenes but I see a lot of crazy people gave 10 stars? Are you fuking crazy? So I have to give it a 2 to trying to make it reflect the true star worthy!
This TV series is so boring so slow and so messy, the ending scene clearly is an after thought for season 2! The plot has too many unclear things, it's just too much flaw...
The casting is very on point, most of the actors are quite good but maybe the casting is so on piont it becomes very stereotype and cliché!
I don't see why people go crazy for this tbh! I only watch it because I was bored

I thought the first ten or fifteen minutes were the worst part of the movie .. they dragged on and on and were just profanity and teen bravado.
And then .. the movie got SOOOO much better. It was funny, sweet, and mostly believable. (Okay, I think the girls were "hotter" than those guys could ever have achieved in real life. But otherwise, it seemed relatively realistic to the way teens think and act. Hopefully, not realistic to the way the police think and act, though! ;->)
I liked that the plot was not formulaic and contained a number of twists and surprises. Lots of good jokes, funny, a good summer movie .. I liked it!

Saw it last night with a packed cinema and I must say Ashutosh Gowariker has done it again. Nice storyline, little slow but he knows how to make a thoughtful film. Really made me think about being an NRI.
Great songs, with A.R Rahman Music of course. The actress Gayatri Joshi played her part very well and she looks very beautiful. Definitely a new star. Shah Rukh Khan well is Shah Rukh Khan, one of the best actors of our times and he can play pretty much any part.
Best film of the year. Watch it and it will make you think.
Its not a masala movie.Intelligent and Thought Provoking. 10/10

I was quite engaged by the first series, save for the now apparently obligatory film technique of jumping about in time.
When Eric Morecambe played the right notes but not necessarily in the right order, it was very funny and always will be. But the fashionable dissection and rearrangement of stories so that you struggle to work out what is going on, is neither funny nor clever. It appears to me to be something adopted by unimaginative story tellers who have nothing worthy up their sleeve and so mangle what is inevitably a far better story when told chronologically, for the sake of trying to look cutting edge.
That said, there were some good action scenes in the first series and a fairly decent plot. If some of the actors had been directed more robustly so that they emphasised the right words in sentences, the dialogue would have been less mechanical and more snappy and witty.
Series 2 (I am up to episode 6) is much less engaging. The writing, which was not scintillating in series 1, is now almost inane. Another current trend of throwing the F word into the mix for the sake of it (because script writers are told this is what most audience members want) rather than with good reason puts the F word into the mouths of actors who are clearly uncomfortable with using it where it is anomalous. I am giving up on it for now, but if a well regarded third series appears I might return to see how this sinking ship of a series was re-floated.

I still to this day don't understand why Kevin Costner didn't sue because this was the exact movie of dances with wolves just set in another situation what a rip off 10 minutes in I I knew exactly what was going to happen so unbelievably boring because it was the exact same movie but not anywhere close as good as dances with wolves

If you've read all the Harry Potter books, then you should know that, as the series went on, they essentially became an allegory for totalitarianism. Certainly one can see that in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1". Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson reprise their roles as Harry, Ron, and Hermione, respectively. The three are now having to live almost in secret due to the almost fascistic takeover of the wizarding world by Lord Voldemort's (Ralph Fiennes) minions. In fact, while the three are undercover in the office building, the factory looks like something out of Nazi Germany or Stalin's USSR: the employees robotically help to publish material which pushes a fear of the "other" (in this case Muggles, or non-wizards). Harry, Ron and Hermione are like the French Resistance, one might say.
Anyway, it's a good thing that they broke the final book into two movies. So far, they're doing a really good job not only bringing the magic to the screen, but also warning of the dangers that totalitarian entities - represented here by the Death Eaters - pose. I recommend it.
Tom Felton, Jason Isaacs, Helena Bonham Carter, Alan Rickman, Robbie Coltrane, Warwick Davis, Brendan Gleeson, John Hurt, David Thewlis, Timothy Spall, Imelda Staunton, and Julie Walters reprise their roles from the previous movies, with new additions Bill Nighy and Rhys Ifans.

Not sure what is wrong with this move .... it is not enjoyable at all ... give me Howard the duck over this any day

Worst acting I've ever seen, first of all that foolish accent something similar to Deutsch JA JA... crazy stuff, poor charisma of the actors... I really disappointed Frances McDormand's acting performance very weak... Although Peter Stormare did his job very fine, i don't know why the rating of this movie is so high, i've seen tons of movies better than this one, it's something from the category "For TV" Poor scenario, poor acting, cheap budget, some stupid accent which made me mad... Some kidnapping story with poor performance and cheap budget... This movie doesn't deserve to be in IMDb top movies 250, i'm very sorry for you people, that you are voting really bad...

And an entertaining one at that. By messed up, I mean fun. I enjoyed just about every character, especially Sweet Tooth. I never played the games, but I would got excited every time he was on screen. Agent Stone and his entire force were honestly the most forgettable parts for me. I am really hoping for a season 2 so we can get that tournament. I really can't say anything more without spoiling anything and I really don't want to.
Oh, if you do decide to watch all the way through; don't make the same mistake I did and leave during the credits of the last episode. There is a end credits scene. Have fun!

Not too bad, and not (too) woke. It's nothing you won't have seen before, though. Zachary Levi isn't too annoying in the lead part. Most of the "jokes" aren't funny. It doesn't try to shove trendy politics down your throat constantly (there are one or two moments), unlike the MCU. Overall, it's just about worth checking out if you want something fairly easy to watch.

Paisa vasool movie. Great acting, screenplay and storyline

I must admit I have seen some rather impressive comic based movies lately, that must have lulled me into a false sense of security.
Somewhat new Marvel offering Ant-Man had all the possibilities to be a rather enjoyable adventure action film: a fun concept about a guy changing size, comic books that nobody really cares so the film makers should be able to paint with almost any sort of brush, good actors cast and above all, the movie was reported to be a comedy, so maybe it would give us something more than the usual fare about a loser changing his life for the better through unbelievable super powers (whilst simultaneously learning humility and that Uncle Ben was right). Even the trailer looked quite okay.
And how hard can a disappointment be.
I haven't despised anything related to Marvel Comics this much since X-Men Origins: Wolverine. And even though Ant-Man isn't quite the same mile stone of ineptitude, the curve of annoyance was pretty much stabilized to pretty much the same level.
But let's start with the positive: the movie is, of course, very visually appealing. That is rather expected from a budget this size, but the pomp and circumstance even has some sense of style behind it.
Evangeline Lilly is by far the best the movie has to offer, since her role most resembled a real character. Oh, if only this movie would have been about her. Michael Douglas was there too, somewhere, and he is, of course, a very fine actor. In smaller role we had Bobby Cannavale from the outstanding Boardwalk Empire. Even our main lead Paul Rudd didn't seem to be a completely charisma free, zero-interest lump of wasted resources, and if the script would have been something else than a puddle of repulsive night soil even he might have amounted to something.
There is a scene where Ant-Man battles Falcon, and this moment had a real Marvel Comics -feel to it. Luckily it was over in an instant.
Then to those bad aspects. Somehow I have a feeling this list is going to be longer.
The "humour" of the film - term here applied with it's laxest meaning - was absurdly horrible. As if a modern, American sitcom that had three episodes made before mercifully putting it out of it's misery was submerged with to the worst humorous episodes of Baywatch. Pseudo-clever, nerdy blathering of nothingness with internet terminology sprinkled in. To take a scene straight out of Spider-Man and do it in exactly the same way, but end it in some forcedly awkward one liner is not, has not ever been and will not never ever be funny.
And don't let me start on the so called comic relief characters, that manage to form a level of nail scraping on the black board all by themselves. These three wacky comrades who come from the rogue-like background of our main character and have no reason to reside in the movie after the first few scenes, even get to say their last words in the piece. They act and talk like an internet meme made flesh with satanic magic and pure evil.
No Rob Schneider, no Adam Sandler, no Marlon Wayans has ever been equal to the grotesque awfulness that this movie calls it's side characters. And decides we should care about them on some level. Jar Jar Binks is the best thing that has ever happened to the art form of film making after these dudes.
Before the release of the film people talked about the main character being an anti hero. This is all fine, since I adore anti heroes. But what does this mean in Ant-Man's case? That the protagonist is contained in a prison in the beginning of the film for braking the law for a really good reason.
Goddamn, you guys. Watch Dirty Harry. Watch A Clockwork Orange. Watch Escape from New York. Those films star anti heroes. This is the same, used and abused Spider-Man again with his troubles with family members and endless babbling about the mythology of heroes than always before, now just with a very slightly edgier, calculated finish. No personality to be found here. Uninteresting banana peel on the floor of existence only fitting for a first person shooter video game.
Michael Douglas gets lost into his wannabe Obi-Wan -role, and the most he gets to do is mumble directions to our protagonist's earplug and have at least five obligatory speeches about the importance of heroism, the joy of helping others and blah blah bloody blah.
The antagonist simply could not be any more boring. Characteristicly speaking ethereal, hairless plank of wood. To have a completely unmemorable block of cheese and then have the same powers as the lead for the end is only horribly stupid and unimaginative. Actually it's so sad state of affairs there should practically be a law against it. Doesn't Marvel have enough baddies to put into their movies? Is this Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III -style nonsense truly necessary?
In the end, what we have here is a movie equivalent for an atrocious, smoking pile of toxic waste. If you want to see a humorous super hero film, rather watch Steel. Yes. Even that is a better film. Or reward yourselves and see Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, for it is actually funny and has a successful adventure plot. I mean, sure; it's overtly cute fun for the whole family, but so is this.
This much of horrible indifference with no soul is that cancer that threats to engulf the entire fictive entertainment business. This could, and should, have been almost anything but what it is - but then, that would have demanded some imagination and love for the art instead of just shoveling CGI spurts to the faces of the wife beater and stench of sweat wearing audience.

By wasted talent I mean acting and directing. Tarantino did a wonderful job turning this worthless plot into art. Problem is...the entire story. Lots of fun build up for basically nothing, some random scene to rewrite history and really not tie into anything that happened the first 2 hours. Was beautifully shot though, some great driving scenes, fantastic production design, and some great acting.

Amazing movie. The best comic-book based movie I've ever seen in my life. I felt like reading a wonderful comic while watching the movie. The scenes with Spider-man flying over New York, the script, the fights, the jokes, Doctor Octopus, the special effects... All the actors that appear in the movie are great in their roles (I think that's definitely Sam Raimi's merit as I do not consider Tobey Maguire a great actor) I loved Spider-man 1, X-Men or X-Men 2, but the "comic-book feeling" is so intense in this one, that I'm sure that anyone that has read Spidey comics will enjoy this to the limit. Great ! Can't wait for the third part !

In a nutshell, season 3 was a regression. No character development, one dimensional plot line. They seem to have run out of steam already.

When a few groups of Wall St traders see in home mortgages what the big banks and ratings agencies refuse to, they have an idea to get rich quick. Based on the true story told by Michael Lewis in his book, The Blind Side, this has become a really terrible film.
Rich, white men obsess around words & numbers & unfathomable Wall St concepts. Presented as a pseudo doco/re-enactment of a greedy deal to profit from the US housing crash of 2005. Non-smart one-liners, Tedious and unconvincing. Lacks action or much tension. Hilariously misconceived and tricked-up for release. Ludicrous and lame scenes are injected into the the Wall St action including a scene in a British pub, the bimbo in the bubble bath explaining sub-prime future convertibles to us then telling us to "Fuck off". There are other speeches to camera, subtitles so we know who the characters are & what is going on
Viewers may be tempted to think they're on the side of the little guy/beating up on a bank just by watching it, but it's a pathetic, cluttered, scrambled homage to wannabe smart guys messing with money. It depicts a system, society and individuals who are so sick that it would incite terrorists to attack them. Unlike The Emperor's New Clothes by
The Big Short pulls its punches re: banks, government.) It's wearisome, impenetrable, foul-mouthed and awkward with its statements direct to camera or 'fourth-wall-breaking gimmickry'. Voiceovers, pieces to camera. The only women are a pole dancer and a blonde bimbo in bath (to show how simple it is to understand). A blokey bloke film without a conscience.
Its four Golden Globe nominations include Steve Carell for Best Actor (ok, he does does a reasonable job with the crap script from Adam McKay and Charles Randolph who are nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, which shows just how bankrupt mainstream US culture is. The resolution is depressing, defeatist and morally disturbing. This would be Ryan Gosling and Brad Pitt's worst roles.
The Big Short is a fraud, absolute rubbish, and way long with it.

We have come to an age in movies where there are a lot of heroes with superpowers . Strength beyond human, speed beyond belief, intelligence beyond the smartest that's just a few powers that can be seen in todays superhero movies.
When it comes to movies where heroes doesn't have superpowers, we can see people like James Bond. There is nothing really wrong with good old James Bond, but the movies monotone, and sometimes predictable and boring. We have a guy who is intelligent and good-looking as well as being strong. But only in the human-fashion. It might be a little more realistic, but it can be boring.
Man has always been dreaming of being more than human. We dream of flying, of being able to breath under water going to outer space without a suit or being able to beat the crap out of whole army's. Sad to say, that isn't really realistic. But we can always dream. And we can always thank the comic-, film-, and literature industry for helping us reading and watching stories about, sometimes, ordinary people becoming strong and loved. In this case, about Spider-man! when I was a kid I didn't know much about Marvel Comics. Accept for three special characters: The incredible Hulk, Nightcrawler (The X-men, but Nightcrawler was my favorite so I only remember him in my childhood) and of course Spider-man.
The only thing I remember about spider-man, in my childhood, was the character and the great change of Peter Parker. He was an ordinary kid, bullied, he had glasses and wasn't popular. One day he go bitten by a spider and transformed shortly to the loved Spider-man. The thing I liked mostly about him was the fact that I wanted to be him. A little nerd, transformed to a super-hero with strength beyond imagination. I was bullied as a child and I always wanted to be stronger than the guys who bullied me. But thanks to my love of escapism, I could travel to Marvel universe and become Spider-man. The once a push-over becoming a strong hero.
The first film was very good, it gave you many things: action, humor, romance and psychological traumas. Peter Parker became Spider-man and had to struggle with having go to school, have a part-time job, help taking care of his aunt, and saving the day for the people of New York. I can relate to that because I have to balance my job, my friends, my work in a political group, and my hobby which is movies and music.
The second movie came as a chock! It is rare that a sequel is really good, especially in a comic book-movie genre. Spider-man 2 gave me many things that the first one did; action, humor, romance and the great choice; be a hero or not be a hero. Spider-man 2 i a great movie that gives you all that an much more.
There a few really good comic book movies. There are some good, many bad but very few really good ones. Spider-man, X-men, X-men 2, V for vendetta are some of the few really good ones. And now adding to the list is Spider-man 2. Even people who hasn't read Spider-man comics will love the movies. And that is a good thing!

I never cared for Barbie but the movie is really good I think the casting is perfect and the music and who they got to do the soundtrack I also love how they made the Barbie world a separate land and it was brighter then the whole world and I love how they went to the Mattel head quarters and the people trying to take her away and Barbie and Ken being in the real In the real world also the marketing team did amazing on the promo and advertisement on the movie with all the company's collab with Barbie and etc so overall the Barbie movie got a lot of hype and well deserved excellent film and amazing for people who love barbie.

An amazing adaptation of the book. They did so well and made me like it even more. It's painful and heartbreaking and beautiful. I wish there were a few more conversations/thoughts included in the show, but other than that it was great. I feel like my heart has been ripped out of me after finishing.

Unrealistic and stupid story or should say there is no story. Not thrilling either. Acting by everyone is very mediocre except the little girl and Karthik. Only appreciable part is cinematography and the lighting effects. Ultimately a waste of time movie.

This sequel to 'Clannad' starts shortly after the events in that series and covers the events in Tomoya Okazaki's life for the next seven years. We see his relationship with Nagisa develop and lead to marriage and the birth of Ushio, a daughter. There are various events which will have life changing effects on those involved. The story involves various alternate realities where we see the events play out in different ways.
I've tried to keep my precis as vague as possible as there are certain key events which shape later parts of the story which I'd rather not spoil. To use a cliché this series is an 'emotional rollercoaster'; at times it is very funny with both slapstick humour and character driven humour at others it is genuinely tear jerking... I don't mean 'there's something in my eye' tears but proper sobbing! This is because the characters involved are well developed and feel real. The animation is of a high quality throughout. Overall I'd say this is a must see if you enjoyed the first series; I wouldn't advise going straight to this as certain elements might seem more than a little confusing.
These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

The witcher is a very cool concept however, this shows execution left much to be desired. The show is interesting enough that I'll continue to watch it but it's not without its flaws. Strengths include Henry Cavill's look and personality is believable and Jaskier is fun and a good sidekick. Flaws include some of the characters have poor chemistry, the monsters look ridiculous (with the exception of the female in season 2 episode 1, she terrified me in her human form), the witcher's action scenes are underwhelming (besides the final fight season 1 episode 1, the mages' powers are underwhelming, and large portions of the story are irrelevant or not that interesting. With as big as the budget is and talent like Cavill, it's unfortunate that the show feels so much like "Hercules: Legendary Adventures" from the 90s without the charm. I expected the story telling caliber of game of thrones with monsters and top notch action sequences. It never fully delivers but doesn't fail either. Meh.

Aspirants does not live upto the expectations. This would be the least impressive TVF series till date. Whole series is full of Unacademy advertisements, and some times disturbs the entire flow of the episode.
Actors also were a letdown. Though three characters are shown as very close friends, comparing themselves to a Tripod, there was no chemistry. They seemed more like classmates rather than friends.
On good side, storyline was pretty good. Side actors did better performance e.g. The landlord's performance.

You don't even have to watch it nothing special just showing every thing openly that's all.

Something very fishy with the scores for this film, reminds me of the strangely positive reviews for the Last Jedi.
The film was like watching a preteen kids superhero movie with added random swearing to be edgy...
Didn't really fancy this from the trailers, should have trusted my own instincts but instead I trusted IMDB...
Losing faith.

I loved every second of Captain America: Civil War. Everything was so well put and the story and plot worked very smoothly. This movie is everything Batman V. Superman should've been. Every character fit right and at no point did the movie feel crammed with superheroes. In my opinion, the two heroes that stole the show was Spider-Man and black panther. They got both of these characters right especially black panther. As much as I loved Batman V. Superman, I have to give this movie more credit. The Russo brothers did not disappoint and they delivered another marvel masterpiece just like the winter soldier. This movie was very good and I plan on seeing it again when it comes out to all theaters and maybe a couple more times! This movie made me very excited to see what comes next in the MCU.

The plot was so meaningless that now I see why the creators had to bring "big names" to the table - to attract people to movie theaters.

I can write books about why this show is so good, amd it still wouldn't do it justice. The depth, character development, music, story line and art is just amazing. It's funny when it can and its serious when it needs to. Can watch this over and over again.

The start I was bored tbh but then I got into it and by the end I was enjoying it! Klaus and five are my favourites and were the only interesting characters in my opinion and vanya I just didn't like. I didn't like luther or Allison much either. I hope they make a second series cos u can't leave it on a cliffhanger like that!

Nice looking VFX for its time.
But pointless, because they just serve to hide that the story is actually pretty dumb.
Never understood the hype around the complexity of the story or the need to draw maps how it all fits together. It's pretty standard stuff if you've seen one or the other TNG episode. What's confusing are the special effects because in the dream world they don't have to make physical sense anymore. That's what maybe causes a feeling of disorientation. And honestly this plot is so empty, that it feels it was written around the idea of creating special effects of this kind.
I think people pretend to like this movie because all the eye candy makes it look like there should be more to the plot, and people don't want to admit that they could find anything deeper in it. So they make excuses about the complexities and great visuals and add meaning to unimportant scenes so keep the feeling alive that this is really deep stuff, because everybody else also says it's deep , so nobody wants to be the dumb guy that doesn't get it. But imma say it: there's next to nothing deep about this.

I agree with many reviewers that this film is not a sequel to the Godfather I but rather whole new film with whole new cast and new, fresh plot. Al Pacino and De Niro shine in this film and it is interesting to watch how the plot writers succeeded in making a whole new and fantastic film out of same theme as the first part.
It is difficult to add more then it is already written about this film by the professional critics and other reviewers. I will just have to refer you to read as much about this film that it has already been written and to watch it over and over again.
Just as in the first part I wonder how much of it could of happen in the real life. I guess some probably, but how much? It is for you to answer...

An Agatha Christie style whodunnit set on a lavish private Greek island compound featuring social media influencers might not have been a bad idea.
Sadly Glass Onion is not that.
It would have worked so much better if it had stuck to the more traditional tried and tested murder mystery recipe.
Instead what we are treated to is contrived, shallow, poorly thought-through trash.
The characters are cliché without being captivating, the acting is awful and the plot is so bad it's just plain bad.
Edward Norton seems unfocused and fails to pull off a role that merely requires him essentially being himself; an arrogant, rich prick.
Horrible performance which should mark the end of him ever starring in anything remotely major again.
Unless he is playing a cocaine addict then he is simply not believable at this point.
The most confusing performance though is by Daniel Craig, his American accent is inauthentic and unnecessary. Why they chose to make his character American in the first place is baffling when an English character would have fitted equally well, made his job easier and made his performance bareable.
Terrible all around.
Two words; contrived and convoluted.

I was excited to finally see this movie with all the rave reviews, awards and hype behind it but man, it was so boring that I found it difficult to make it through to the end.
The main reason for me is because there was no character development. More specifically, there was nothing in any of the characters that made me care about them so the whole movie is just things happening and nothing at stake from a viewer's perspective.
Nothing that happens is particularly shocking or twisted either- I might even say that it's fairly predictable. Going back to my main point, didn't care for any of the events that happened.
Even if I didn't know about the hype beforehand I can objectively say it was just a boring movie. For me anyway.

This show is so freaking stupid. Netflix has yet to make a single show that can sustain a storyline. When you can't write add songs to fill the void or have your characters walk around not saying anything looking pensive.

The Fault in Our Stars is not much more than a cliché romance movie, but with one main difference - the theme of cancer. The fact that both the protagonists have cancer could have given this otherwise atrociously shallow movie some depth, but it didn't. The cancer theme was poorly handled, and despite dealing with such an important and sensitive issue, the movie doesn't rise to anything more than an unoriginal and cliché chick flick. By using it's cancer theme purely as a vehicle for romance, this movie ends up feeling... wrong. It's offensive.
See, this movie is essentially like porn for women. The female lead is a girl most girls can identify with, except that she has cancer. The male lead is, as usual with these type of movies, the boy of every girls dreams, except that he has cancer. He's handsome, clever, fit, alpha male etc. Inexplicably, he has eyes only for the female lead (of course) and is a virgin.
So it's basically just another romance movie. Cancer doesn't give this movie any depth, but it's poor handling of the sensitive theme does make it more offensive.
Oh, and no, kissing where Anne Frank spent several miserable years doesn't make your movie any better, it's just offensive.
Normally I wouldn't review this stuff, but this is the most overrated movie on IMDb.

The film started out as quite the interesting premise for a murder mystery. Not the most intelligent of stories nor the most intelligent of twists along the way, but quite sufficient to keep me invested in the story as it unfolded.
However, the ending made the entire movie crash and burn like you wouldn't believe! I cannot understand the motivation for such a drastic change of pace, and it did nothing but deteriorate the entire experience into 2 hours of wasted life.
It seems like whoever wrote the script really didn't know how to round off this otherwise serviceable story in a decent manner, and, instead, opted for making a train-wreck.
Well, congrats on your train-wreck...

This show is as close to the real thing as iROBOT was to its source material.
Thankfully Sapkowski got his payday but I now understand why he walked away in anger very early on over creative differences.

Its visually great, and the relationship between Will and Hannibal can also get interesting at times...but the problem is that no sub plots has any atmosphere..any development...they are subplots just to show some more gore.
And the whole show has some fake sense of eloquence...nothing like humour or real conversations...also the deaths/muders seem so unreal...just how many grotesque deaths can u digest?.. also the FBI are made to look so stupid time and time again...any one can murder anyone at anytime...even at high security hospitals...
come on..do something better..atleast a bit more believeable..
and most importantly physchopaths are dumb scum of the earths..dont get fascinated..

Ultimately disappointing sci-fi movie, starring Keanu Reeves and a bored-silly Lawrence Fishburne. Movie seems to be more about attitude (wearing way-cool sunglasses and dark trenchcoats) than about fighting for the world's future. For a vastly superior film with virtually the same plot, check out Dark City, starring the marvelous Rufus Sewall and William Hurt.

I give it 7.5 stars....Eight for the first parts.
Spoilers ahead. An ultimately frustrating show for me that went on too long if it was to take the plot line it did.
I'm just going to dwell on my frustrations that held this show from being as good as it should have been.
I feel it weakened when it replaced L with N...almost like for like to extend the story.
Also the company involvement was pretty boring in the middle part. One of my main frustrations which became more and more as the series progressed was that nobody tried to Kill K or his associates. It was ludicrous that K was treated with the softest of kid gloves whilst all around various bad and good characters were being assasinated or dieing in their droves.
K was like a blood soaked terrorist with his finger over the trigger of a bomb. When it was known beyond reasonable doubt who K was somebody should just have killed him, not even for punishment, not even to prevent further serial murders but for mere self-defense...he is killing all the authorities who are after him and can kill by just writing your name. From watching the ending it seemed the only resolution in mind was confronting K with irrefutable evidence AND getting him to confess so they could, not kill him....just lock him up! All the while giving K numerous opportunities to escape or just kill them by writing their names down.
So an interesting show that, for me, just couldn't sustain itself with the plot line it took. I did however appreciate who resolved K's fate...it was quiet apt.

What can i say this movie was avarage nothing great. I watch spiderman acroos the spidey verse and that movie blew my mind. Nice interesting story kept you engage by the excellent dialogue. Not to mention excellent visuals. Where spiderman across the spidey verse did so well this one lacked on. First of all this one miss alot of his family aspect which i love about the second film. Miles morales mom did not even get alot of light which she was great playing that spanish caring mom. This ine lacked alot of it although there was great scenes like him and his uncle in the train track honestly i didnt feel engaged and i was falling asleep with the story. Maybe watching the second film ruin this one for me i cannot rated these two films close not even kinda the second one blew this one out the water.

The animation is poor (there are fan animations better than this) and the fight scenes are dull with gore being used to mask the lackluster artwork and designs. All the characters are unlikable and the story is just a generic revenge plot. Sudeikis just wont shut up. There is no reason for me to recommend this to anyone.
You can tell the studio didnt believe in this product by the production quality alone so why should I waste my time on it as well. Go watch Invicible, Castlevania or try anime.

Something about Netflix producing this series just isn't right. The costumes, CGI and props feel pretty cheap, like from a low budget production. Other studios such as HBO seem to be putting more effort into something like this. The immersion into the witcher universe I hoped for just isn't there. Other than that the camerawork doesn't really suit the style I was hoping the Witcher was going for, just a lot of boring shots with a few exception here and there. The actor's aren't that bad although Henry Cavill is the only one who seems to be taking his role very seriously, with other characters not fitting into the setting of the series at all.
Everything taken into account The Witcher is an OK adaptation from the book with a lot of things left to do better.

The movie hits you really hard. What a screenplay... The casting was fantastic and the acting of each one of them was so real and raw... although Amitabh sir can act anyday like this but he deserves a clap for accepting this role.

After watching this movie, I definetly want to see it nominated for the Golden Raspberry Awards and to win the award. It has beed a while since I haven't seen such a worst movie, but because it comes from Netflix, this is expected. In the last 2 years Netflix creates the worst movies that might be released, and you are asking why are they burning they (our) money for such worst movies...
This movie should be recommended for kids 12 - 16 years old.
For adults is a waste of time and a prove of how an actor should not act.
However, the next sentence is in contradiction with my age recommendation: To prove something is needed to destroy an universal heritage (Mona Lisa painting)?
Nice education provided. Very disappointed 😥

Though the movie revolves around four groups of people but the way the writer connects it is so so so good. All the characters feel so real.😍

Stuff happens is the only thing I can tell you about this show.
Episodes 1-3: Mediocre at best (4/10) Episodes 4-8: A step up, but still ok (7/10) Episode 9: But why? Why would you do that? Why would you do any of that? (4/10)
Goes on for too long. Could've easily summed it up in 4 episodes max.
MCU's attempt at a new direction where their content isn't formulaic is halfhearted and average. They wanted to produce a mini series which continues on to Doctor Strange 2, but here's the problem with mini series, you have to wrap up the entire story within a particular frame so that no loose ends are left and the ending can feel satisfying. But this doesn't do that and instead opts for relying on its previous movies as tropes and several, SEVERAL questions are left unanswered which doesn't make the story sensible.
While one could argue that these loose ends will be tied in upcoming movies, what about the structure of mini series? Where's the damn payoff? 9 weeks all for absolutely nothing.
And remember I said that MCU tried making something that isn't formulaic? Well, the last episode pretty much destroys that reputation. I don't have much to say about that.
Again, Random does not equal to good. I'd recommend that the average joe skip out on this series because it does not get more boring then this. Do not follow this clout because it's going to disappoint you.
And as for the MCU fan, well take a look at the 10 star reviews....

Captain America : Civil War was much better than anyone expected to be. After the semi disappointment of Age of Ultron which didn't have much of a point and a fairly underwhelming cast of new characters, Civil War actually delivers a strong Avengers movie: there have never been that many superheroes on screen and the Civil War plot - though quite different to the comic book version - provides a good premise for the conflict.
The brothers Russo deliver a similar joy to the first Avengers with the superhero fighting each other scenes. Actually the action scenes in general are great (like they were in Winter Soldier), action packed and fast paced. Great stuff for the fan-boys that wanted that.
The new characters, namely Black Panther and Spider-Man are absolutely fantastic. Of course Spider-Man is more exciting - great costume! great quips! he's so young he feels like the 1960s' version! - but Black Panther shouldn't be short changed: he's elegant and charismatic - not unlike Captain America.
But two things bring the movie down a little: the pacing. The plot is complex (too complex for a superhero flick?) so you get a lot of exposition and "talking head scenes"... your mileage may vary but don't expect non stop action for 2hours; this is not it. And then there is the end... no spoilers, but it's quick and a little "under the rug".
Oh and yes, one thing: it's not technically a Civil War, it's a 2 hour battle! Other than that, fun fun movie with a clear focus on Captain America, and a lot of cool shots for the fan-boys in the audience.

I'm really surprised by the negative reviews here, as me and my friends who like Marvel all really enjoyed this. I started watching, possibly expecting the usual shtick, but the mystery approach to this story has impressed me; it's a step up for Marvel. I understand if you don't like the humour or the style we've seen in the first two episodes, but thanks to releasing two episodes we can see how things are going to change. Not only will the style progress through the decades, but a mystery plot will emerge with the scenes in the trailer will arrive for all of us who crave action. It can be easy to judge episodes when they are released as slowly as they are here, but I'm sure as things progress there will be something for everyone - and these early days are a good move by Marvel to break out of their shell and try something new with their characters!

I'm from Belgium, that's why the first season only came in 2003. Season is now on our television screens. I've never been so enthusiastic about a action series. This is maybe the best. The reasons are obvious. The terrific plot that thickens by the hour (or should I say episode by episode?). The characters are amazing, Jack Bauer(Kiefer Sutherland) and David Palmer(Dennis Haysbert) in particular. Kim Bauer(Elisha Cuthbert) is also a good character, she's smart and so HOT. They're terrific, I wish that David Palmer was the president of the US instead of George W. Bush (the f***ing idiot). I record every episode of the series because they're so great. Another reason is that '24' is very exciting and thrilling. The only thing that bugs me is that it lasts 45 minutes instead of really an hour. But hey, it's still a work of art and very enjoyable to watch. Terrific.

Tarantino fell in love with a weak script here and unfortunately wasted a lot of time and talent that could have been spent elsewhere with a better story to tell.
As a director, he should think about challenging himself more. This isn't a challenge, it's an homage, recreation, retread, and while technically an achievement in terms of the time period re-creation (they did a fine job of envisioning 1969, and maybe it deserves an Oscar for art direction), the storytelling takes no risks and breaks no new ground. It's simply boring in too many parts, where I found myself asking why I should care?
Whether it's Tarantino-esque or not misses the point, it's simply not a "great" film because the script is lacking and it wouldn't matter who directed it. It drags. The narrative meanders. It's a simple film with ordinary characters. The weak script sucks the life out of it.
As for the Manson murder re-imagining, it's satisfying enough, though not quite as bombastic as I expected it to be.

The first season was strong, and ultimately left with the feeling that with a few tweaks this could be very close to the source material. But then something happened, and the whole thing went spiraling down. I feel sorry for Henry Cavill and the real fans of the actual Witcher, as currently this has deviated so much that it deserves to be forgotten.
I will not be bothered with the fourth season, as the show runners can't be bothered with it either. I'm guessing they have already been paid well, so they can now push their own ideas and agendas, and not be bothered about good content. So let's end watching now, at least the beginning was good.

I think people who LOVE this either hav'nt seen much scifi or are being paid to make fake reviews. The whole multiverse idea has been around a long time, sliders in the 90's , fringe, many other shows. I found it too much, the first 50 mins were good, but after thats its just messy and trying too hard, that scene with joy beating up the cops, was really badly made , cringe, I will remember as an example of how to make a bad film
I was glad of one thing , seeing an older Short round from indiana jones 2 ! I knew it was him from the eyes !
I cant really recommend it, messy , as was the trailer.

I never bother reviewing a show unless it's either really good or really bad. This show falls into the first of those categories.
The casting, acting, cinematography, CGI, set design, dialogue and storytelling are all fantastic... not to mention the fight scenes are f*cking awesome! If you're still reeling from the final season of Game of Thrones then this is the fantasy show that will help heal your broken heart.
