When this first came out I thought it looked dumb. But last night I gave it a shot and I stand corrected, it's such a great show! The only thing I'm not crazy about is Amy Schumer, they should have used someone else but Everything about it is amazing. Great humor, great story, great acting! I binged all of the first season in one night. This is the type of show you will rewatch over and over. Martin short, Steve Martin, and Selena Gomes did a phenomenal job in this! I love how witty they are. I cannot stop watching this show, it's addicting. It's definitely binge worthy. The script is great. If you haven't watched it yet, go and watch it asap! My congrats to whoever came up with this. It deserves a solid 10.

This is the most dark and best thriller,mystery and crime web series. All scenes in the series look so realistic which makes it too dark.Some of dialogues of the series are in Hindi,English,Marathi and south language which make the series attractive.

I finished season 2, one of the best parts of the series is that they do this job very well, being sit-com. It was a fun and fluid season, again, I am very curious about the new season. This group is not the soviet union I guess they will not disband.

I am sort of sorry that the rares time I write a review, it is not a kind one. But I am sorrier still that the rares times I watch theater movies, it is because of high ratings of previous reviewers.
Yep, that is how i chose this one.
"Astonishing", "perfect", "masterpiece", "9 out of 10" were some of the comments and ratings around, so I thought, this must be it, if I have to see one movie this year, it's this one.
But honestly :
Special effects, are good.
Plot is so plain you understand what is going to happen and how it is going to end in the first ten minutes. And there are no twists whatsoever. Everything is pretty much recycled from other movies - not talking about "avengers" or marvel series; rather, just any SF movies out there were used as ideas sources to fill this one. Nothing new, nothing different.
Yeah, there are a few nice jokes, and some fat, both so badly plugged you can see the stitching (you'll understand when you see it). In the past, when heroes were making jokes during a battle, it was to show they mastered the situation, and it was fitting the atmosphere and pace; in this one, you can see at some point the director absolutely wanted to put a joke in the middle of the main battle - broke the rythm and half spoiled the mood just because of that.
Movie is three hours long.
I just watched two episodes of an old anime series from the 80's, and in those 46 minutes, there was pretty much as much action and stuff going on than in these almost-three-hours of medium paced show. So although people say it was needed to fit all the references to previous marvel movies, i'd rather have less references and more things happening in this one.
As it often happens in these follow-ups, previous movies created such an intricate situation that this one solved in such a straight-forward way, it felt as if somebody wanted it rushed to the finish.
And in order to do that, it took the party of a lousy quantum physics theory (which is actually wrong, btw), and left some important side question unanswered
And not to talk about the mania from the producers to destroy stuff that went on for décades, or millennia, all in the timespan of a few years! We had ragnarok, the death of Odin.. And now.. this? Well without spoiling the movie for those that want to see it, I'd say it looked like they wanted to make sure that this put an end to the story. Even if that meant to break the logic of these movies : "Thus far and no further we shall make avengers movies" God complex, perhaps?
All in all, it wasn't any better than an old Flash Gordon movie, except for the SFX that are of course more modern. I'm giving it a 3 out of 10, as 1 and 2 are reserved for movies that don't deserve watching till the end. But I believe that once the paid comments and the avengers mania will be past, many other will downrate this, that definitely did not deserve all that advertising and praise it received so far.
Definitely a cash movie, nothing more.

I believe the movie was much awaited by the public across genre... people were waiting to have something like this coming...it was kind of change and a realisation of patriotism after all the x-rated and other web series going around. To the top of it with most of the big name's in Bollywood have miserably failed to entertain or bring people together...

Really, the cost of each episode is 20 million dollars.it is so boring. The story is so flat with a cliche idea. The directors were trying to use the metaphor of the dark scene to show the dark age. But they went far beyond that almost nothing is visible. For obvious points, directors spend a lot of time, and for complicated points, they did so quickly. The story jumped for ten years without proper explanation. Some of the nudity scenes are at the level of porn and there was no reason for such nudity. The rating of this product only proves that today's TV productions reduce the minimum good taste of TV series.

I am not a fan of animated movies, but I like and follow marvel movies. Movie starts very gently with lots of passionate scenes, especially when the dad-cop asked his son to reply "Dad, I love you." This movie followed the disappointing formula, in which a movie starts off well, but then it's all downhill from there. After that scene, all of a sudden, the movie became so confusing and the story line got so slop as it was filled with many unreasonable and superfluous actions, And once again, I was left constantly wondering when this movie would end. I didn't leave early, because I did not want to disturb the other people, if there were any left.

There are moments during "Interstellar" which may be compared to "2001: A Space Odyssey" (a better movie). There are moments during "Interstellar" which may be compared to "Prometheus" (also, a better movie). There are even moments and storytelling techniques within "Interstellar" that are completely ripped off from "Inception" (a much better movie, from Christopher Nolan himself). That said, "Interstellar" should still be touted as the most ambitious film of the year so far, and in the same breath, should ultimately go down as one of director Christopher Nolan's worst films to date.
This highly anticipated Nolan project depicts a future riddled with dust storms, where the world's food supply is nearly depleted (or at least 40 to 60 years out from being depleted, but that doesn't sound nearly as dire) where astronauts are working as farmers and children are taught that the Apollo space missions were faked. During this time, an underground government institution called NASA commissions a group of astronauts (including Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway) for a top secret space mission. This mission will have them traveling through a newly discovered wormhole, with the promise of finding another inhabitable world.
OK, let's get right to it. Any praise I heap upon this movie will be directed at the final 90 minutes of this two hour and 49 minute long film, since the first 80 or so minutes of "Interstellar" (while absolutely gorgeous at times to behold) is drenched in sequences of McConaughey seemingly reenacting moments from those pretentious Lincoln car ads, caught in a continuous and almost finger wagging diatribe about how the human race was never meant to die on earth, which nearly put me to sleep. In other words, the first half of this is as slow and lifeless as watching a dead astronaut drift through space. Anyway, this is Intersellar's fatal flaw, since the latter half is ripe with big budget yet very symbolic action sequences, stunning cinematography and fascinating talking points dealing with the nature of human survival in the face of an unsympathetic universe, due to some really insightful slabs of dialogue from a script written by Nolan and his brother, Jonathan. Even the literal rocket science lingo becomes more and more palatable as the "gravity" of this plot begins to set in, near the midpoint of Act 2.
Final Thought/The Ending: Allow me to take a quick spoiler free moment to discuss this ending. During the final act of "Interstellar", for most film nerds, Nolan's story will be encroaching on the hallowed grounds of Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey". Some will admire the sheer ballsyness of what he does in this pivotal moment and others will find it in bad taste. Though this is not a huge issue, since I don't believe this niche group will have much effect on ticket sales, the problem is that for the millions who didn't see "Interstellar" for any film school aesthetic reason, Nolan's ending will simply come off as so strange and obnoxiously far-fetched, that many may leave the theater angry that the punch-line wasn't worth the nearly three hour set up.

It's just not a very good movie. Loud dramatic music while a city is destroyed. Tense standoffs where only one good person fights one bad person at a time. Does this sound like every other Marvel CU movie ever? Yep. Like I said in the title, if you're 12 years old you would probably rate this high. Scar Jo and Falcon are the absolute worst characters. I won't give it a 1 star, but I definitely will not rate it higher than a 3.

Nice special effects, not a bad cast. I just wish it had a more compelling plot besides repeatedly getting into and (briefly) out of trouble. They're brainiacs with problem solving skills- I get it- but it's not imaginative enough to keep watching.

I feel that this Batman movie did absolutely no justice to the franchise name. the killer of Mr. & Mrs. Wayne wasn't even jack Napier!!! if this director wanted to display his Independence from the others he did so very well, but to me when there is a franchise to fit into you should at least try to fit into it. The training that Wayne goes thru is one of the saving graces of this film as well as finally an explanation for where he in fact gets those wonderful toys. the new Alfred is OK, but still doesn't hold a candle to the one past. in my opinion not worth the big screen experience, but worth a rent when it hits Blockbuster or Hollywood video.
p.s. the new batmobile sucks!!!

Poor poor story, tons of useless and too long speeches ... it' just like that parody the Simpons did of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace... political nonsense stories and words ..on words...with other words... and none of these words catch your attention
Well if you want to see a sud-american telenovelas or some kind of greys anatomy /house of cards drama typology you can go on watching this incredibly boring show.
If you you loved Game of Thrones do yourself a favor and keep that amazing show in your head because this thing is goin' to ruin every good memories and feelings you had for GOT.

While I was pleased at the plot and how they somewhat started on track with Stephen King's masterpiece book fairly well, I thought that some of the actors and actresses chosen were poor based on how the book had written them. For instance, the actress playing Holly Gibney from the book does not accurately portray the character from The Outsider or from The Watchman trilogy. Holly was shy, soft spoken, unique, loyal to her few friends, and very clearly on the autism spectrum with servant tendencies that she never bragged about. She had difficulty in ANY social situation and rarely had contact with anyone if she didn't have to, because she was too nervous and socially awkward. This actress bragged about her vast array of knowledge, described her abilities as "unexplained," drank alcohol, and was better socially than she should have been. Those who have read any of the 4 books with her as a character know that Holly doesn't drink (she has, but she doesn't want to mix it with her antidepressants). They could have either chosen a better actress or written her better. Something is way off.
All negative aside, I'm enjoying it thus far. I am always excited when anything of Stephen King's gets adapted into a movie or television series.

I heard some years ago from a black stage director that one of the big problems with casting black actors in black plays was that the actors didn't know how to "talk black." This send up of the use of marketing in movies (that is, making sure the marketing categories work for profit) is waaaay overdue. The writing is clever, and it's so refreshing to see Jeffrey Wright out of the shadows of vampires and other characters. When's he going to be a leading man (like Idris Elba; appealing to women of all stripes.) It's about time black actors got to read for parts that have something to do with black people as they are today--like the president, maybe...can't wait for marketers to get out of the way of life...

A good movie, highlighted by a stunning performance by Russell Crowe, but limited by dull and unimaginative direction, a one-dimensional aim and disappointing compromises.
Crowe is brilliant - his failure to win the Oscar is one of the worse decisions by the Academy - but his portrayal of insanity is let down by a disappointing screenplay and very limited directorial skills. Compared to Shine - which shows you how well these things can be done, the images of insanity are dull, and the plotting is pedestrian at best.
The inability of the director to face up to the limitations of Nash as a human being, the soppy ending and the cliched images of collegiate life let the movie down too - with a decent director, it could have been great.

No story, full of chases and shooting, that's 2 hours of my life I won't get back,

I realise this is not the consensus but I just don't understand why this is so highly regarded? I have given it several re-watches because I WANT to like it... Just don't get the hype at all. Boring.

Uninspired, laughable child and adult actors, and countless false jump scares make this one of the worst horror movies I've ever seen. The only horror comes from jump scares, one of which actually made me jump. Other than that, all of the child actors were absolutely horrible, seemingly taken right out of a Neil Breen movie. The only credit I give to the movie is how well they link the other movies in the series. Terrible movie, not scary, not well acted, and not well written.

I feel like the most important thing to bring up with this movie is the pacing in it. The pacing in this movie is fast that it leaves zero room for the movie to slow down and take time to breathe. I feel like for some people this kind of pacing with work for them but for me I kind of wish it slowed down because everything in this movie felt bullet-pointed. The first act of this movie went by so fast that once we hit the climax of the movie, I was like Oh wow it's nearly over. But that's not to say I didn't enjoy what I say in this movie. I feel like all of the actors in this movie were having the time of their lives. Tom Hardy did a stellar job once again and brought so much of the humour that I really enjoyed. I'm not fully sure why but to me Woody Harrelson just didn't work for me in this movie. I could tell he was doing his best and trying super hard but I just didn't really care for him and his character in this movie. I mentioned the humour in this movie earlier and I feel like it might work for some people and not for others and surprisingly it worked for me. I caught myself laughing quite a bit while watching this movie. The last thing I'll mention is that Andy Serkis was a great pick to helm this project and direct it. In the end, Venom: Let There Be Carnage is a VERY fast-paced movie that has a slow first act that picks up in the second. There is only one post-credit scene that you should definitely stick around for.

1. Overall Plot - 10/10 This movie is very well done. The story is as good as it gets. It is one of the most intriguing and well done Marvel films ever. This movie is very impactful on the overall MCU. We get to see how Steve has adapted to his new life, and how he deals with his new challenges. His character, along with all the others in the film, go through tons of great development.
2. Entertainment / Engagement - 10/10 This movie is full of action. And the story is super cool to watch it all unfold.
3. Emotion / Investment in Story - 10/10 Steve Rogers past coming back is very cool, and absolutely full of emotion. The emotion in this movie is very grand. It affect the universe as a whole. And every character goes through their own emotional journey.
The story makes and keeps you super invested the whole time. It is very entertaining.
4. Theme and Depth of Story - 10/10 This movie is full of fantastic themes. I think the best one is to stand up in what you believe. It is what the Captain America character is all about, and this movie shows that attribute perfectly.
This is one of the deepest MCU movies. It explores so many great things about the characters, history, and different great comic story lines.
5. Characters - 10/10 All of the characters are fantastic. I think this is the best we've seen Captain America, Black Widow, and Nick Fury.
I absolutely love the introduction of Sam Wilson as Falcon. They nailed it, and it really couldn't be better. I love the brotherhood he develops with Steve.
The Winter Soldiers introduction is very, very cool. It is perfect in every way. The way you learn more about him throughout the film is awesome. And it sets up some amazing story lines for future films.
6. Acting / Writing - 10/10 Zero complaints on the acting at all. I think this is the best Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, and Samuel L. Jackson have been in the MCU. Anthony Mackie did fantastic as Sam Wilson.
The writing in this is the best in the MCU. It shows off just how big of a deal this movie is. And shows Captain America's character perfectly.
7a. Cinematography - 8/10 Nothing super special or mind blowing. But still super good. I do love the way they do the flashbacks.
7b. Choreography - 10/10 This has my favorite fight scenes in the MCU. The fighting is done very fast and very well. It is very entertaining to watch. The Winter Soldier in particular has some very cool moves while he fighting.
8. Score - 9/10 Captain America music is super good. And this movie delivers on that. The music for Winter Soldier is super good. It is on Hans Zimmer level. It has the same vibes as The Dark Knight trilogy score.
9. Editing / Pace - 10/10 The editing is very good. I especially love how they make it feel much more serious. And any flashback scenes are edited very well.
The pacing is perfect. It gives the right amount of time to set up and keep you invested in the story. I love how much action this movie has. And they do a great job making it not feel rushed, with action scene after action scene.
10. VFX/Practical Effects - 10/10 This whole movie feels very real. There isn't anything that even feels like special effects. That is probably because there is a lot more practical and less CGI.
Average Score: 9.7/10
My Overall Rating and Final Thoughts: 9.9/10 This was my favorite Marvel movie until Spider-Man No Way Home. And it honestly still might be. It takes one of the best Marvel comic heroes, and displays him perfectly in this movie. The action scenes in this are the best we've seen. And everything to do with Shield is just very cool to watch.

The movie has a nice story, fun and enjoyable meaning the movie is less than scarier compare to Creation. I loved the characters a lot. I don't even saw a story development (like where is this going after this?) in the movie just a romantic plot.

War drama by Sam Mendes. April 6, 1917. WW1. Two soldiers are tasked with carrying a message to the front lines to call off the attack in order to avoid falling into a trap and sparing the lives of 1600 men.
Technically good, but the story is so ridiculously full of conveniences that it's unbelievable. Just send a plane around enemy occupied territory to deliver the message a few miles further and the matter would be resolved in 5 minutes instead of the 120 of droughting boringness and nobody needed to die. Some say the music accompanies the film well. What music? I didn't even noticed it. I don't know why but stupid movies are now the norm for good, Oscar-worthy movies. And it won 3 of them! How far down have we come!

Honestly wasted my weekend after watching FAN movie. So disappointed, totally waste of time and money.....The only thing good in the film is the make-up and acting as Gaurav, otherwise totally illogical..Not a nice movie but still much better than Dilwale and Happy new year.Watch at your own risk....

What PK tried to do, this movie takes it further. Constant mocking on Hinduism and Hindu godd.

Movie focused on boy's stupidity at times and girl's arrogance and dominance, afterall that was the element and requirement to give it a different angle than other such stereotypes. I liked early scenes and idiotic moves by the boy. It turned boring and seemed stretched after one and the half hour. However, the climax did stole the show and got its value back. I would still say 2 hours and 15 minutes were quite long and could have been wrapped within like just less than 2 hours.
Overall a worth watch if you are a vivid rom com fan or even otherwise.

The first half of Bodyguard is a really well told story. An intimate thriller about corruption in politics from the point of view of the home secretary's bodyguard. Some of the intrigue is played out without audible dialogue, as seen from the main characters eyes through glass windows as he's trying to figure out what's going on. This is where the show is at it's best, it's an original vantage point and the plot is exciting. There's also some gray area romance thrown in for good measure to make the whole thing feel like a Polanski movie. The quality drops once a major event occurs and the show completely drops the 'bodyguard premise'. The story devolves into a more formulaic police investigation with the main character chasing leads while ignoring his mental health. It's still a good show, but the run-up is much more suspenseful than the finale.

After watching the similarly overrated "Host" a couple years ago, I wasn't keen to jump on the bandwagon for this one. But so many people told me how "amazing" and different it was and kept recommending that I see it. So after it won all these awards and they put it back in my local theater I broke down and saw it. Well, that was a waste of $13.50 and two hours. It's billed as a genre bending comedy/drama, but in my opinion it misses on both fronts. There's nothing especially humorous in the dialogue or even the situations. Poor family scams rich family for jobs and money. Ooh, that's so original, except that it's not. The fact that the poor family is so unsympathetic makes it just unbearable. They're vile and annoying. Is it a clever commentary on class structure in Korea? Not really. Just hamfisted platitudes. The rich couple come off as far more likeable in fact. As for drama, there really isn't much. Yeah, they try to take a dark turn towards the end and there is a feeble attempt to make things dramatic, but I just kept looking at my watch wondering when this bore-fest would end. Then it just kept dragging on.
And for the record, I spend lots of time in Asia, including Korea. I've seen lots of Asian films. I have Asian relatives and an Asian spouse. It's not cultural misunderstanding here. I just think, like that similarly shallow representation of mental illness in the even more boring "Joker" film, people want to praise something that they think brings attention to some uncomfortable issue. Guess what? Variations of this class structure have existed in Korea for hundreds of years. Things are better now than they were. There are plenty of options that don't involve scamming and murder. But if you can feel better about yourself by claiming to empathize with the lower economic stratum by suffering through this film, more power to you.

The series was good and normal and was a preparation for the fourth phase of Marvel movies. But some people thought that there must be interesting and cool theories in the series, so if Marvel was to destroy a strong vilen like Mephisto for one episode There was no choice for his films, in general, this series was to deal with Wanda and bring her to power, which showed well. It was the Mcu series. If you expect everything to be completed in the first phase of Phase 4, do not follow it

I totally agree with the critic James Berardinelli, especially when he says in the conclusion: "The absence of viable characters limits any dramatic impact, making this more of a laid back, lightly entertaining experience than a fully immersive one." This more or less sums it up.
Otherwise a very good depiction of "inside America", its contradictions and the simplicity of it's people (the police interview with the two hookers is memorable). A good film, excellent story (reality always beats fiction, it is amazing what can happen in real life), but the simplistic, one-sided characters depicted diminish the overall effect of the picture.

It's a really good job from William and Robert but to me that kind of movies are to much, the photography is very good and the direction as well.
As I said this movie it's not for everyone

There were numerous problems with this movie. One of them is the scientific inaccuracies. I won't go into detail, but there is a lot. But the main one is that it is extremely boring!!! I saw at my home on my 11 inch laptop... and let's just say that it wasn't as cool as it would have been in the theaters. I do agree though that the special effects are incredible, and Alfonso Cuaron did a great job as a director. If your into that stuff, then go ahead and watch it. Otherwise, that was it. It was just Sandra Bullock in space not knowing how to do sh*t and gasping and at times sounding like she was having sex (to me at least). It was a women-empowerment movie, someone described it to me, which by the way they hated it too. I thought i would like it because it won a lot of awards and got some good reviews... but I finally saw it and I was like that was awful. Everyone who saw it said it wasn't good or it sucked. You can check it out for yourself but, really isn't worth it.

Thanos a well written villain however he can be slightly boring, props To Josh Brolin. This doesn't change the fact that this and most of the Other MCU movies are absolute rubbish, not worth watching unless ur a child Otherwise I recommended you speak to a doctor

The sets and lighting really capture an english and new england magical feel. The characters are well cast and have plenty of chemistry. It's a little slow, but I think that's because they don't want to rush good work. I'm looking forward to more episodes (I'm only on the 3rd).

Stephen Chow has always been a pretty slapstick sort of director, but he really veers away from a lot of those ideals with Kung Fu Hustle. The movie as a whole tends to lack the fun loving attitude he had in previous movies like God of Cookery and Shoalin Soccer. What we get instead is a pretty darkly humored, violent film that tries to illustrate what The Untouchables would have looked like if Robin Williams and Jim Carrey were on the marquis. In short, it seems awkward.
But hen again, that was most likely Chow's intent, taking a page from American cinema so the violence might seem more accessible. What I really did like were the scenes with the assassins which really embodied the more classic elements of Asian cinema and Chow's own wild vision. I was also pleased to see Kwok Cheun Chan had a better role this time around, considering he was my favorite character from Shoalin Soccer in the role as Empty Hand.
Take this movie for what it is, and you'll enjoy it.

It glorifies violence, as do most Tarantino movies. The hippies are already the bad guys before they have done anything. This is not even believable, since the most striking feature of their worldview is to be against violence. I guess this bothers Tarantino. But instead of giving a sensible take on violence, he straw-mans them into being the bad guys. The message being that there is good and bad violence. The three character groups are not even related, besides being neighbors are somewhat around each other. This is very artificial and bad screenwriting. DiCaprio and Pitt are doing solid acting throughout, but the purpose they serve is just the worst. The plot leaves no place to nuance. The good guys have to be the good guys despite doing terrible things. They are presented in a way one wants to relate to them, albeit being incredibly superficial and vain. The main thing everyone is doing is driving around. One could say it is a movie about commuting, smoking, drinking, spitting, and killing. Why can't people make movies about something else interesting, for once? I knew it was terrible before watching it, that's why I put it off until now. Even when characters try to reflect on themselves, they can only be concerned by how they look to others. Why else would they be obsessed by TV and movies? The meme with DiCaprio pointing at the screen reflects this attitude quite well: the greatest delight one can attain in Tarantino's mind is to be seen on the screen (and to look decent). To sum things up in one sentence: even if you are getting older and weaker, you can still be cool by killing people.

Detail-wise, it's not the book. It doesn't matter though as it does cover much of the general themes, settings, allusions, etc. Decent job by Spielberg by reinterpreting the book. That being said, it doesn't really have much to go on. It's fun enough, but somewhat confusing, relying on special effects to handle the inconsistencies in the lack of continuity and abrupt changes in the character relationships unexplained by the script. Still - it's ok, but nothing great. The soundtrack, although Alan Silvestri instead of John Williams, is really the most saccharine John Williams it could be. The 80s reference music are totally in line with the book, but that soundtrack other than those notes, is completely distracting, melodramatic and annoying. Anyhow - a solid 5 overall.

A must watch mini web series. Great performances. Greatly presented. It will surely give you a chill. It will give you different view of the Unfortunate Chernobyl disaster. You are going to realise what a big human mistake looks like and what it costs. I had heard about Chernobyl right from my childhood but never got such a perspective. The main thing about this series is that it is going to make you give a thought about how and what our governments can do to hide their misdeeds. It will definitely change your attitude towards your respective governments. So please watch.

Seeing Batman: The Dark KNight is the event of the year. That makes it exciting. The problem with this film is that its too long. 30 minutes need to be cut out. The story is not sufficiently written to carry the film for its full length. Whatever any one says there is a load of padding in the filming to take it to its 152 minutes. Blockbusters need to be epics its seems. Even if the story has to be stretched to fill the time. How many times does Jim Gordon have to say "The Joker meant us to be here?" Christian Bale broods and broods and ... broods! No wonder we haven't heard very much about him in previews on his performance. He doesn't do very much. Aaron Eckheart's good guy DA is the only clear moral character out of all them in Githam. Its a dark and violent city returning to the original comic book stories. All very well but you need more story to support it. Heath Ledger as predicted steals every scene and is having wild fun with a huge character where everyone else is subdued compared to his Joker. It owes a debt to Jack Nicholson's Joker with whom it has been compared. Its largely good as a blockbuster but is over-hyped and the advertising surpasses its expectations

We started watching this with my boys (11 and 7) last fall. It was borderline then on the violence and sex scale but still OK because it's Marvel and it's cool. Not anymore. This last episode (on the train with the good guys trying to track a secret case) was so, so violent and over the top. Stabbing in the back, girl shot at close range twice with one shot where the gun is pressed against her belly while she is being hugged(!), huge amounts of blood, more stabbing, open wounds, then ridiculous amounts of blood. Follow this with talk of the two main characters "having sex". What is wrong with these producers? This is Marvel. It's supposed to be fun and for kids! Why would you do this to comic characters? It's not needed and you have ruined it for me and my family. And from what I have read for many other families also.
Please don't watch this show with young children or you will be sorry.

My only compliment is visually it looked good at times but that's it. Really hard to get into the story and no characters to really cheer for. Including Elisa. I'd argue it's a ridiculous story to enjoy. To moronic to genuinely get into.
Now I have to admit I have a bias against Del Toro as I feel he ranks as one of the more overrated directors out there. Pacific Rim has the dumbest dialogue but looks great, Pan's Labrynth wasn't near as compelling as people wanted it to be but did have some cool set design, but I do like the Hellboy movies but mostly because they are visually sweet (picking up a theme here?).
But The Shape of Water doesn't fly as Academy material as it's mostly going through absurd motions. It was hard to care about what happened next. Not sure how\when I was supposed to get invested in it.
And if you didn't see how it was going to end for Elisa a mile away, you might too dumb to be able to offer a genuine analysis of this movie. Or any other probably.

This "thriller" is based and contains inaccurate depictions of non-American characters incorrect clothing, language, etc. Definitely do not bother.

Other reviews stated - same plot as 1, poor script, visually nice but that doesn't make a good movie. Quick search of the internet tells me James Cameron sees up to Avatar 7. Think this will be my last Avatar, it was painful, slow, stupid and very very very predictable. Only reason I can see actors signing up to be part of 3, 4, 5, or however many he wants to make of this is for the paycheck. He's got to find some better writers, ones that can tell an interesting story that doesn't dumb down everything. "Go, Go up" "Go faster" "Move". Script seemed like it was written for a child. Avatar 2 = visually beautiful but overall - boring crap.

I came to this having not watched all of Harry Potter so was pleasantly surprised that my lack of previous knowledge didn't prohibit my understanding of the plot.
I can also understand why it was set in New York , it opens up a whole new chapter(s) for its biggest market and this has already recouped it's $180m budget. The CGI and recreation of late 1920s NYC was amazing .
Great cast and a beautiful love story between Jacob and Queenie . Colin Farrell's was excellent and he the wittiest line 'put down those wands' interesting cameo in there too .
Overall this was a good film , thoroughly entertaining , 7.5/10 not quite an 8/10 with the love interest between Jacob and Queenie the unexpected added bonus particularly after the negative line 'who would marry him'
Enjoy

As i say about Ashutosh Gowariker he is the very perfectionist director in India. He has a very good point of view in direction. I have seen many makings of his film and i see he is very clear about that what exactly he want to do. Jodhaa Akbar is very very good Indian epic historical drama film. Hritik Roshan, Aishwarya Rai and all other actors did great job. If i would say about film in one line i will say it's a great hard work of all crew member and those people who worked in Jodhaa Akbar. Haidar Ali writes good story. Screenplay is good, Dialogue is good, Music is very good, Cinematography well and you will see very superb work of production design and costume design. Nitin Chandrakant Desai did very well job in movie. The Film's set is very large and It's looking like actual Mughal's building. you can't find any difference between film set and original building. Detailing, Color tone, atmosphere and fillings of scene everything is perfect in this movie.

After only 15 minutes in I was hugely disappointed with the pointless cuts, editing mistakes and pointless jumping around. I'm surprised RR has put his name to this.
Poor storyline, poor editing, poor filmography
This had the potential to be so much better

Two total losers work in a lighthouse at some remote end of the world location with constant atrocious weather.
These losers hate themselves and hate each other and have delusions and fantasies, so the ending is easy to predict.
That is all there is to the film....but hey...wait a moment....all sorts of secret meanings and symbolisms are meant to arise in this picture; but if you want to really know what they are you need to do a google search , etc etc. And even then it is confusing. No thanks, as many of us what to understand a movie in itself and not have to try to figure out some obscure interpretation what it all means, if anything. But clearly I am in a minority, as look at the high rating and awards for this nonsense. Showing once again you can fool most of the people most of the time.
And be warned: there is a very unpleasant and unnecessary scene of appalling cruelty to a sea bird in the story as well as some other highly unsavory incidents.
The only reason I give above the lowest rating is the brilliant cinematography; but even that cannot save this mess of a nasty movie:
3/10.

I laughed more than pondered on who done it. Mainly because it's light joke to light joke humor with a great cast. I'm not sure why people hate this aside from expectations being dashed. Honestly I enjoyed it less than Knives Out, BUT it's more rewatchable because of the side humor. So it's definitely worth a one time through if you have the time and a subscription.
The cast of perfect. Edward Norton gave a a Death To Smoochy type of performance in this movie. While the others played their parts perfectly. Such as Kate Hudson playing the dimwit deluded personality that falls upwards. Dave's douchey manners carried over he role. Plus Daniel Craig's accent is ridiculous, like a southern Brit. All plays stupendously well together.

Dumb and boring. Dark humor, not humor at all. Spoiled "superheros " gone amok.

You follow, no originality. The same boring, commun US, padronized fiction city, with stereotypes of young people, I would say the tapes where in mono, not stereo. People come and go. People take pictures when they've high, then most erase them, or some got posted contra voluntas. Banal. Suicide among teenagers. That record old tapes. Why not a Revox recorder? Good soundtrack. The eighties are in TV fashion, not so much in real teenagers life. Although it's normal for a generation have a sort of veneration for past "rebel" ou "underground" characters, idols, artists. Briefly, although an effort was made, it shows how the US are being turned into a society of fear, not able to see itself in the mirror. It's a global fenomenon.As themselves promote Brasília or Indian series more cruel, US portraits itself prettier. Hope? Tell that to the multitude of new slaves living among citizens, many of them turning into "untouchables" as it is said of India. No home, slave work, and only a memory of a more equilitarian structure. Disney is abandon fairytale. YouTube, Amazon, Netflix are showing "socially aware" series. Call RAINN, call suicide line, call 13. Hipocritical behavior is a serious problem on media giants. Good acting, it could have been good. Second series a little more close to a content worth seeing. It seems that truth moved into the future, to scy-fy and fantasy where accountability is far away...but my opinion is biased, although I respect very much an history at the current times, when it smells real, hard fiction.

Fasten your seat belts we are about to enter the dark realm of hyper hype. I just don't get it. I have seen a lot of movies and this one....well, I am far off from the norm (of ratings). A 4 out of 10!
First off, I don't like how the violence is glorified. Vince and Jules are just too cool. HEY,PEOPLE THEY ARE KILLERS! Movie fans treat them like fans of Mickey and Mallory in Natural Born Killers. WOW, THEY ARE COOL AND FUNNY! BRILLIANT PERFORMANCES BRAVO! (DUDES). In this picture show, the good guys are ruthless, mean, brutal, murdering outlaws and they do it with a twinkle in their eye. Not realistic. I am amazed at the number of people who love this movie. It must be the phenomena of when you tell drunk jokes to a drunk; they love it.I am not one of those pristine few who believe that movies should have no violence. Many of favorite movies are violent.
The part where Travolta blows a guy's head off is not funny to me nor is the one with Jackson and Travolta killing people in the beginning. The drug overdose with Uma and the needle slamming into her chest is not funny or entertaining and yep, I always laugh and watch rape and sodomy for entertainment. Jackson and Willis are the highlights in the movie to me. They give a little moxy to the flick but they can't save it. I did love seeing John Travolta returning to the dance floor (very clever), but it was not enough to keep this movie "stayin alive". The movie ranked up their with professional wrestling. I almost had to kick my own ass for watching all of it. I pulled the plug on this one before it made a vegetable out of me.
The plot is anemic. The violence is the steak and the plot is not even a baked potato side order. The plot clings to this Hollywood entree like wilted parsley. In the end ,just like food, it all does come together and should be flushed down just like last nights supper.
If I had to watch it again I think I would get a blow torch and some pliers and get medieval on some pulp video.

Sure, season 2 and 3 are not as good as the amazing season 1, but the storytelling overall makes people binge this show and the tough issues this series pursues are worthy of seeing. A great series for people in general.

There are some songs just say "I love you". There are some songs make you feel the love. This movie is doing the first one.
In the movie, there are many scenes were supposed to be really sad and I am usually sensitive about those scenes. However forget the tears I didn't even feel sad at all. If you do things right you don't need to burst in tears to make the audience sad; even a look would be enough. They said "That's the thing about pain. It demands to be felt." Well, I'm sorry but I didn't.
For the ones who don't agree with me I recommend to watch "My Sister's Keeper" and "Don't Worry I'm Fine (French movie)".
I gave 4 stars because at least I was able to watch the whole thing.
Cheers!

The trend that a hero talks in a gravelly drawl reaches its climax in this film as Matthew McConaughey spends the entire film trying his best to speak without using his mouth and pretty much fails to complete a single sentence. Whereas most people are able to send words flying from their maw Matthew just lets them slither from his lips whereupon they plummet to the floor and their meaning is lost the audience. So prepare to spend your time with this film constantly twiddling the volume so you have a chance of catching the dialogue.... So the film itself? About as exciting as a brisk walk around an industrial estate. Painfully slow to start and once it does finally begin it generates pretty much a single spot of excitement before becoming desperately dull again. The science as well as most of the social interactions within this film are full of plot holes which I'll spare you due to the spoilers but if you think about the film after watching it a lot of it doesn't really make any sense. The climax of the film is somewhat boring combined with fanciful and a painfully tiring family tie in.
No idea why everyone else thought this film was any good. I thought it was drivel.

An absolute waste to the time. Thank god i didn't have to watch it at any cinema hall, otherwise it would have been a waste to my money too. There's no storyline and Bangladesh has been wrongly presented here. There's a lack of sanity, knowledge and common sense in the mind of movie script writer, director and any other one affiliated with writing that story. Also, Bangladeshis never talks in that kolkata accent. The only thing worth to mention is Chris Hemsworth's acting and action scenes. Apparently, no reason to WATCH this movie; ENJOYING is a far fetched word here.

In a world where superhero movies reign supreme, a film with such a promising ambition proves to ultimately be forgettable. Despite how easily digestible the plot is and few genuinely comedic moments, the film falters in delivering characters the audience can connect with. The villain especially feels lackluster due to the childish motivations he presented with and the protagonist himself is played with such pretentiousness that makes the viewing experience annoying to watch. I understand the film is attempting to present itself as a lower-scale superhero story starring children as the heroes, but the story that's displayed feels generic and pretentious to wear its heart on its sleeve and create its own style. Where superhero movies today are artistically experimenting with what can be done with the genre, this film fails by being generic, predictable, immature, and an eye-rolling attempt at being different.

Apparently a global nuclear catastrophe is not possible in the Soviet Union. The desperate attempt of the government to cover the horrible incident in Chernobyl made me feel extremely bad. It was horrible to watch. I would recommend.
The jokes were sparse, dark and well placed. Great effort put into details and probably for the first time an American movie that didnt present Soviets in a stupid braindead way.

It's hard to decide whether or not I prefer this film to the first, as it tells - in some ways - a more mature, nuanced and layered tale, but what isn't hard to decide is that 'Spider-Man 2 (2004)' is a fantastic movie and easily one of the best sequels of all time. The villain is wonderfully rounded, his motivations constantly clear and his character arc drawn in full before the credits roll, and presents both a physical and psychological challenge for our hero. The story expertly balances the phenomenally fun yet still emotionally resonant web-slinging sequences (a high-speed train in danger provides one of the feature's nicest character moments whereas the whole 'bank' section is amazingly accomplished and thunderously entertaining) with the relatable central dilemma of our very human protagonist. Raimi's directing seems to be stepped up a little, too, as he leans further into his own quirky style - evident in the renowned 'surgery' scene which is one of the best in the entire film. The entire piece just gels together to make a cohesive, complex and rare example of the superhero genre at some of its very best. 9/10

A spiced up true story worthy of a watch. Though the movie runs for less than two hours, it fails to hold on to the same intensity till the end. Ajay Devgan and Saurabh Shukla potray themselves effortlessly.

Milly Alcock as the Princess, Matt Smith and Rhys Ifans are the only actors present of interest to me. That's a terrible showing for such a large production with a huge cast. To make it worse, Milly Alcock has finished her role this week in episode 5 so where we go from here is a problem. The young actress who plays the Queen is hopelessly miscast with zero presence but she's gone too now. Paddy Considine, a normally good actor is all wrong for the King also, looks weak and feeble here. Diverse casting too is so boring just for the sake of it, no interesting actors. I've seen five episides and will carry on in the hope it gets better but I'm not optimistic any more. Pretty much a disaster.

I liked the acting for the most part the CGI was good unless invisible I think the director missed the point of the story and just gave us a wimpy Disney Version.

The movie is very interesting. And it have a several members of the Avengers. We can see that in the movie and its very good. We can see also some tension between the heroes for the white wolf and we have a nice introduction of Black Panther. Its pretty interesting to follow the movie and have some nice revelations and an end that let us worried about some relationship between heroes but its pretty good and we dont see that often in a marvel movie. And i enjoyed the risk that Marvel took with this movie.

Americans: just so we're clear, being a cop in NY or California or South Dakota or Florida doesn't mean that you run the world. No one outside America cares that you're a cop in whatever American city you come from. The fact that we're supposed to believe that anyone outside of America cares that Sandler is a cop or that it would mean anything at all makes it clear that this movie is for total morons. Take away Sandler's cop persona and this movie is just two boring characters wandering around sets with stock footage of European cities thrown in. This movie is so boring and the plot is so played out. Proof that famous people can do whatever they want. Had an unknown writer written this and pitched it to anyone in Hollywood, they would've been shown the exit before you could say "hack". But of course, idiots keep Hollywood alive, so there will definitely be a sequel and this movie will definitely be a hit.

No character development, too much obvious special effects, little variation in musical numbers. The movie is enjoyable enough to watch once though.

First one was reminiscent of Agatha Christie a bit, this one not so much, but rather on the flashy side, not much intelligence needed to comprehend the story.
It is entertaining, though, but on a rather less intellectual level than the previous "murder mystery", and not by far comparable to Agatha Christie novels at all.
I find it disappointing, disillusioning, and reminding me much of the downfall of the Roman Empire, when all civilization fell apart for a very long time.
Nevertheless, it is a very good piece of craftsmanship of movie entertainment, though, possibly comparable to the intellectual level of "bread and games" of the ancient Roman Empire which our "civilization" resembles so much nowadays. ;)

I respect the fact that I have a minority view of this film, the overwhelming majority of folks leaving such high praise in their comments. But boy, I found this so dull and I ended up really hating it. A pity, since I liked the concept and was looking forward to the film.
The relentless force feeding of dramatic music and ugly-faced grimaces, attempting to give every scene in the film a weight it just didn't merit, was too much for me. Hardly a smile anywhere in this shockingly one-paced film and not a single character I could feel any warmth towards or empathy with. Complex without reason, lacking any hint of soul, riddled with cliched fight scenes, honestly - yuk! And for what - an ending that was predictable, cheesy and devoid of emotion.
One star for being Chris Nolan, another for some interesting special effects. That's it.

So this is a light crime drama that doesn't follow the same formula that every TV show follows.
The dynamic between the 3 main characters seems to gel better as the episodes progress, I'm keen to see where this goes, and how much life it has for future seasons.
Selena Gomez wasn't someone who I thought would have taken this role, but I think it's a good choice for her. As for the two legends, not a disappointment at all. I'm throughly enjoying seeing these guys back on the screen again.

"Fargo" is the modern classic that elevated the Coen brothers to the upper echelon of filmmakers working today. They'd done some fine work prior to this but it wasn't until "Fargo" that they got the attention that they deserved.
The film is set in Minnesota in 1987 and centres around a kidnapping plot that goes horribly awry. Blood is shed and yet the laughs come steadily. In retrospect, it's amazing how effectively the film balances unflinching violence and understated comedy.
The cast is dynamite. Frances McDormand won a well-deserved Oscar for her performance as the local police chief while William H. Macy got his big break by nailing the character of inept car salesman Jerry Lundegaard. And how can you not like Steve Buscemi & Peter Stormare as the pair of kidnappers? In fact, there's not a single performance in the film that's less than ideal.
Then, of course, you've got the work of the Coens to consider. Joel got the directing credit but both brothers actually collaborated, as they did with the script. The script garnered a richly deserved Oscar while the direction was recognized with a nomination. The Roger Deakins cinematography was also nominated for an Oscar but Carter Burwell's moody score was unaccountably snubbed.
In the end, "Fargo" is one of those films where almost everything works so well that it's difficult to spot even the slightest flaw. As a dark comedy, it's practically without peer. As a Coen brothers film, I'd say it edges out "No Country For Old Men" as the best of their career.

The director is obviously a serial killer movie fan and made a movie which is almost a tribute to all the books by Thomas Harris and James Patterson.The lead actor is an aspiring movie director who has laboriously collected pictures and text from all the past news making serial murder cases.Somehow he ends up as a cop and there's a serial killer on the loose killing teens and terrorising the suburbs.What follows is the hunt for the killer and all the expected turn of events familiar to fans of this genre.The movie starts off well butbut veers off into a ridiculous Mish mash of stupid characters and pointless Investigation.The killer character has a motive and somehow convincing but ends up a joke.Looks like the the prosthetic department is still having a Dasavatharam hang over.
Lead actor Vishnu Vishal looks fit and apt as the cop.The director manages to keep the pace of the proceedings. Back ground score is too obtrusive for this kind of movies and murders the eardrums.When compared to the last A R Murugadoss movie which belonged the so called 'psycho' Tamil movie genre , this one is way better.If somebody finds this edge of the seat and horrifying I recommend Jee Woon Kim's ''I saw the Devil' as a cure

I can't believe they wasted AN ENTIRE EPISODE on this boring mess of an introduction.
Don't get me wrong, retro sitcoms can be very funny, but this was a completely cheeseball, pointless waste of time. They could have established a sinsiter mystery veiled by an idyllic sitcom in ten minutes, not wasted TWO ENTIRES EPISODES. A boring, boring episode with the flimsiest of narrative weight.
Honestly, I think the writers and producers should feel absolutely ashamed.

Greetings from Lithuania.
I never was a big fan of "Harry Potter" series, but i liked all of the movies. Those were kinda better then "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" (2016) - in my opinion. That said i never intended to see "Fantastic Beasts", but yet i did finally at at the end i wasn't disappointing, but that is because i didn't expect much. It has a lot and good special effects, but not that special. Set design was very good as well all of production design. Yet the movie dragged, not much but at running time 2 h 5 min it could have been a bit shorter.
Overall, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" is not a bad movie at the end, i wasn't disappointing. I will check the sequel, maybe some time after it will come out.

The movie is so captivating you are entrenced from beginning to end. The film chronicals the young life of Don Vito Corleone(Robert De Niro)and the assension of the mafia empire in the 1950's by his Michel(Al Pacino)The film is just as captivating as the original and gives you a stroll through Little Italy at the turn of the century.In all the greatest Mob/Drama of all time.

Show is great, don't get me wrong. I absolutely love the story of Hannibal Lecter, the photography is unbelievable, the cooking is top notch and you're left with such beauty that you forget the ingredients being used. But after the first 13 episodes you're left feeling like the characters are all living in a poetry book and communicate using nothing more than whispered thoughts of repetitive ideas about "finding yourself" that gets tiring and quite boring. Haven't seen such an annoying character unable to deal with their feelings delivering their dialogue like Will Graham, second only to Dexter's own sister Debrah Morgan. Worth the watch, it's on Netflix and most people are still home so give it a shot, great show just not excellent as most are reviewing.

Death Note is truly an amazing and well-crafted show which plays with its dark psychological tone very nicely. The spooky intro and outro and perfectly matched background score gave the show's dark-psychological tone a serious boost. The character development of the main characters Light and L is PHENOMENAL^INFINITY but characters like Mello and Near totally ruin the show after episode 25.
I would even call it a masterpiece had it not been the somewhat lame events after episode 25 which seriously brought down the interest-levels to a great extent.
What is interesting about this show is that we are forced to contemplate - "was Light somewhat justified in his actions?" This question is itself a great silent message to the existing Governments which often fail to provide justice.

Best ever by TVF, especially the twist in the last episode, story will keep you engaged all the time & it won't end the conventional way as you all will expect it to, like any other Indian drama & series story. Flavors of unpredictability & suspense will keep you occupied even after you've finished watching it. Every character is interesting & useful in the series & the way its filmed is even more amazing. Great background score & music in the series. It shows how much potential these guys have & its just the beginning. This series deserves to be in top#100. Amazing work by TVF team, waiting eagerly for Permanent Roommates.

I must say I was sceptic to this series. But I just had to see what all the fuss was about. Wednesday is based on the "Adams family" films. Personally I haven't seen the films but I understand that many fans of the films are angry because Wednesday wasn't portrayed very well.
I however love Wednesday's mystic energy and how she acts cool but you know she means well. The plot is very intriguing and you just want to watch more and see what will happen next. It is always a plot twist and it is fun because the watcher can have suspicions. But it is always the person who you suspect the least.
The only thing that drags this movie down is the quirky comments. And it feels a little Disney channels vibes with the script sometimes. Or even twilight and Harry Potter vibes. But even so you have to watch this. And Jenny Ortega is amazing. I especially like the viral dance scene.

Obviously a lot of thought, money, and time went into making this show. If only someone could have used all those resources well instead of producing what must be one of the most impossibly pretentious tv series in years. Nick Offerman delivers every line as though he were reciting The Wisdom of the Ages. The other actors spout their dialog with equal pomp. And the lines themselves: just so abysmally smarmy. On top of that, the casting is bizarre. Offerman can pull off certain roles, but not this one. The woman who plays Katie just looks baffled and out of place. The lead actress, as everyone else has pointed out, can't act. Worst, the company muscle is played by a sweaty, chubby, elderly man who looks as if he's the Before Photo in a commercial for heart medicine. All in all, this is a show that should be on everyone's Don't Watch list.

Very Horrible.. They just want to prolong the profit from this film franchise.. And the media sure did a great job at marketing. 90% part of the movie is boring.. felt like regular action movie.. If they want to to tell the story behind the john wick world, it only takes about 20 minutes, the rest are just filler. You should probably just watch youtube recap/clips.

Most of the characters in this movie exist primarily to fulfill a roll to advance the plot. His wife is "a woman who cheats on him." His mom is "Mom" - she hardly says or does anything the entire movie other than be a body for Cooper to talk to. The doctor is "a doctor." DeNiro is a guy who loves football to the point where every line of dialogue is about football. Everytime we see him he is a body for Cooper to talk to, or he's sitting in front of the TV. Lawrence is hopelessly, randomly, and nonsensically infatuated with Cooper. That's her thing. The brother is "successful." The policeman is "" a policeman. " It's always the same one responding to the scene within five minutes no matter what day of the week, location, or time of day.
The entire movie is full of characters that you know one thing about, and that thing is drilled into your head repeatedly. The characters are so unbelievably one dimensional... Even if you didn't speak English you'd understand the entire plot because the characters are so simple.
And that brings me to my next point: why watch this movie? It's certainly not enjoyable. Bradley's acting is great (they managed to squander DeNiros talent, Tucker has a great cameo) but every scene is a dramatic argument or conflict. It's the most literally unfun and unjoyable movie to watch. It drags on and on and on, as if viewers hadn't spent their entire lives trying to avoid dealing with these situations.
Just a hard no on this. I don't understand the hype. Cartoon shows have more developed, relatable, and realistic actions from their characters than this film by a large margin.

Very disappointing and didn't even end up finishing the movie. The new character is thrown in randomly at the start and there is no character building, so I couldn't care that people were trying to kill her. After the first Dr Strange, this was a bit let down.

I don't know what the director was trying to show in this. Useless storyline, useless drection. Absolutely nonsense.

Years ago I thought vagaries of the weighting algorithm caused this movie to appear with such a high rating. As it remained almost static in top fifty lists around the internet, I had to go back and watch it a third time. It is as if a secret Franz Kafka Philip Dick Thomas Pynchon alternate reality quest eludes me and I am failing to hear the post-horn. I remain baffled.

Interstellar is itself a crescendo, increasing sensitivity and creativity. I use the term deliberately because it goes crescendo with the soundtrack by Hans Zimmer, which is one of the most beautiful music ever scored for a sci-fi movie. We are witnessing a perfect musical arrangement, a total symbiosis, a bit like the music of Gravity which had understood very well how to match the image and the rhythm of a sequence to its own musicality. Zimmer's crescendos are giving a new powerful breath to every new scene, whether it is in visually powerful & intense moments or in more intimate moments; it intrudes into our momentary feelings and sensations, and manages to extend them, sometimes almost to choking, before resting on the balance of the film frame along with our mind spell-bounded.
I have seen all the talent of the director that I knew he was outside the norm, but whom I did not know his capacity to reinvent itself. Because this is it: Interstellar is not an action movie, not really a blockbuster, and it goes not entirely but mostly again the expectations of common people. It's much more than that. This is much more than just a sci-fi movie. It is unlike any of his previous films. Some hoped to see Interstellar as Christopher Nolan's best film, and they were disappointed that this was not the case. And indeed, THIS IS NOT THE BEST FILM of Christopher Nolan. Because in a way, IT IS HIS FIRST FILM. I'm not saying that Interstellar is not as good as his other films, it goes beyond all of them. But to me Interstellar is the first film of a new stage in Nolan's filmography ; it is a masterpiece as it the beginning of a work ahead. Interstellar is the proof that Nolan has finally managed, despite all the expectations that were placed on him after the success of The Dark Knight, to move away from his own reputation to create a personal work, original, humble, sincere and deeply, meticulously, measured.

People were hyping the crap out of tho movie, so I figured I'd go see it today. Long story short, this was the first time I actually got bored at the theater. The 3D was good, the action sequences were pretty cool, and the camera-work includes some neat shots. Where Civil War falls short is an extremely boring first half. The payoff is good towards the second half with spiderman and more action, but the story gets derailed and all over the place. Not only is the story confusing and all over the place, the many slow parts of the movie just made things boring. I mean REALLY slow parts. The villain is a Russian guy apparently and not at all important to the movie, only appearing for about 10 minutes and not showing any real significance. Speaking of which, no characters showed any significance besides iron man, despite being called captain America. Had this just been Avengers 3, it might have made more sense. Captain America was there, but most of the focus was on iron man and every other character felt like cameos besides bucky and captain America. I had to give this a 6 though, because even though there are some seriously slow parts and plot holes abundant, plus an odd choice of casting (why is aunt may like 35 years old?), the film has good action and I really liked spiderman and black panthers appearances, as they really added some weight to the movie.

Jon Berenthal is awesome and I was STOKED for him to play this role. In Daredevil he was perfect , just perfect. They wrote scenes perfect it was great. The show..... ugh man they could've done better , way better.

Why can't an action movie be logical? Need to ignore story, and even common sense while watching this movie. Each and every bad guy, looking super sophisticated, forgets that he is holding a gun and not a piece of metal to come so close to the hero before pulling the trigger. The friend of hero, reaches the rooftop of the building opposite to the room of the hero, points the sniper and waits. He shoots inches beside the hero to only alert him off approaching enemy. He could have called him up or shot the enemy if he is so concerned. But no, it's an action movie and it is not supposed to be logical, right? The villian gives up the EXACT address where his son is hiding and patiently waits, having few drinks at his home, till the hero reaches there and kills his son. He then becomes angry, captures the hero, and leaves him with couple of idiots who tries killing him with a plastic bag. Seriously? Each and every scene seems to to desperately made to look nonsensical. Such scenes, which the movie is full of, spoils the pleasure of the action scenes and the curiosity that is initially created. I'm so much confused how such good a rating it is attracting.

I get it, Adam Sandler is great acting. Except that, this movie is boring, without purpose and waste of time. I really had to create my first review here ever, just because I want to share my feeling about it. Had the patience to watch it until the end just because I was hoping for a big comeback. Surprise: big nothing! Dissapointed.

There will be no spoilers in this review. As I mentioned in the title, that's all this show is, a cinematographic manifestation of an empty, dull and underwhelming story. The show started off quite promising, the first episode in particular was very good, it investigated the depths of relationships for our protagonist, there was indeed some development. But onwards, it fell way too flat, no development, and a bunch of predictable and futile encounters for our lovely main character. Nothing too long that cannot be summarized within 3 lines of talk. This show should've been made as an indie movie, but if it were, it would've been bashed so hard.
The show was ruined the moment we realized there is an actual antagonist, we knew how it's all gonna end. Moreover, our main character is so one-dimensional, and suffers from teen issues that the show never investigates but seems to encourage in a deeper layer without even knowing it. Let alone the weird stereotypes for literally every personage there is; russians, average american adopters, orphans, shopkeepers..etc. The acting was average at best, regardless to some really promising figures.
There are so many unnecessary things, like when our main protagonist underwent the unfortunate event of menstruation. Or when the oprhan janitor is ALWAYS grumpy for no reason (and we never get to know why). How is a girl always let to be playing in the basement every time but gets away with it ? There are so many other questions that remain uncharted and therefore weakens the overall structure of this show.
Just skip it, you won't miss a thing. 2/10

Very poor plots. It's so disturbing to the story that one stupid person can manipulate space worthy robots and geniuses. it would help if she can die in one of these stupid plots. It looks fantastic the money they spent, they could get some better writers too. I love sci-fi watched hundreds of them so I can say if the plots are not gonna get better this series will fail and get cancelled. If i want to watch family and trust issues I'd watch a drama. I need to see wonder and new challenges, not earth drama and personal issues in "space". Lol

Vanity project for all involved, but it does produce some pretty cool action.

All those Harry Potter movies were just okay. The books were funny enough, and all the movie adaptations were decent and satisfying. I'm not a big fan of those book, but I liked them. Daniel Radcliffe was a very good choice as Harry Potter, he is very handsome and talented. The performances, the script and the special effects were good enough, not as good as better films as "Avatar" and "Watchmen", but were good. My only problem with all the Harry Potter films is that all of those movies are pretty long. Since those book and movies are aimed to children they should be shorter, I guess. All the Harry Potter films are good, but I still prefer "Avatar", because "Avatar" has aliens, and I love aliens.

I would like to thank Jennifer Lawrence, I manage to get some sleep since my girlfriend made me go see this movie. Talk about boring, it was so boring people were getting up in the middle and leaving. She's become way over exposed and talkative.
