Astronauts Matt Kowalski (George Clooney) and Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) are repairing a telescope in space when a Russian satellite explodes and sends the debris their way at very fast speeds.
The beginning of this movie feels like it's the end of a movie when disaster strikes and they overcome it and we all go home. But, that can't happen as this just started. Bummer.
Gravity would be better viewed in 3-D if you can manage it. The CGI visuals are truly outstanding even in 2-D. We see Kowalski and Ryan try to get back to the ISS (International Space Station) and one would think there would be tension and suspense during this attempt to get back, but this didn't happen for me. But, if you watch in 3-D you will be ducking debris every 10-seconds. Quite exciting though. For me, the tension and suspense came much later when Ryan was by herself in the abandoned Chinese space station. Hey, wouldn't you be tense in a space craft where all the buttons and controls are in Chinese and you don't know the language. Huh?
Gravity was nominated for Best Picture. Say what? Give me a break. Sandra Bullock was nominated for Best Actress. Huh? The Academy must have had their collective heads in a Black Hole when they made these nominations. Sandra Bollock is a good actress, but it didn't show up in here. George Clooney was good, but his character acted too much like the disaster was a walk-in-the-park (I guess he knew this was only a movie).
Still, this was somewhat entertaining, but highly over-rated. The dialogues between Kowalski and Ryan were lame for the most part. No good lines, nothing funny. The star of this movie is the CGI visuals and again, they are spectacular. But, that's it. View it in 3-D and enjoy it. Otherwise, it's a "Help, I've fallen in Space and can't get up" type movie. (6/10)
Violence: No, not between the characters, just the violence that occurred in space. Sex: No. Nudity: No. Language: One F-Bomb uttered by SB. | 6 |
Majorly disappointed. It didn't have as much character development as I would've hoped for M' Baku. | 3 |
For the world's "best of best" these people all seem like failures. But then, I guess that's what the world has come to. Dr. Smith makes me SCREAM at the TV and wish she would get eaten slowly by a monster | 2 |
The film was as usual, a good Spielberg creation. But I hope that some of the events were embellished as I to lived in California at this time. The anti semitism depicted showed me an area that in Southern California we were not exposed to. I truly hope that his family life was not as depicted, if it was my admiration for Stevens accomplishments since then has grown immensely! I wish he could have shown more about getting started in films rather than just fading out in a back lot. If he were to remake this or perhaps make a film about his actual start in Hollywood it would be recognized a lot better. | 5 |
It's clear that Millie has a bright future, in the short term, assuming she doesn't OD on Hollywood drugs in the next few years. She is an excellent actress for her age, and also a good producer. The film is quite awful, but it hits all the feminist notes that are required in Hollywood. It may even win an Oscar.
If you are a normal person, than this film will likely be very boring, except for Millie's performances. It's an attempt to capitalize on the Sherlock Holmes name, while making a diehard, Feminist, diatribe. It's, in essence, supposed to be some sort of Mother and Daughter film, as a veneer, to cover it's obvious, Feminist, propaganda.
Millie will make a lot of money. I hope as she grows, she will understand what Hollywood is, before it's too late. | 3 |
Whoever is exposed to the path of the great director of The Fabelmans " Steven Spielberg " will find that he did not leave a kind of film without leaving his mark on it, with full awareness of the identity and features of the world in which he draws his artistic creativity, so the end result is amazing in all its cinematic elements and causes a high status. Spielberg" is in the artistic community as one of the pillars of "Hollywood", which some do not know what the industry will become when this man stops making films.
Spielberg", who introduced himself to the cinematic audience as one of the creators of science fiction with the war of the worlds, creatures that come from space, strange phenomena and predatory jaws, the historian who goes back in time and lists important facts that add to cinematic drama great artistic treasures, and the poet on the roads of "New York City" narrates. A love story that takes place amidst a struggle over the power and sovereignty of the street.
A great passion that did not come from a vacuum or from a mere study of cinema concepts so that it would be a profession of earning a livelihood and living only. There is certainly some motive in the life of "Spielberg" that made him in love with cinema. For the imagination and accurately drawing the place, and in the general atmosphere epic, romantic, dramatic and everything that might come to the mind of the lover of the cinema of that iconic veteran.
That is why the movie The Fabelmans comes as the first work of "Steven Spielberg", through which he tells how it all began, and the temporal, spatial and social stages that greatly affected his personality and his artistic outlook that was not a coincidence or mature after the passage of a lot of time and not from the first moment, a melodrama Full of ambition, striving, grief, passion, and realism that may touch the adolescents who are always thirsty to form their own personalities, as is the case with the hero who grew up and reached what he is thanks to that strong connection to cinema.
The Fabelmans movie review In conclusion, The Fabelmans deserves to be referred to as the work that will win the Oscar for the best film of the year long before the award season, because the film is a tribute to cinema and to everyone who loves the seventh art working in it or from the audience, and a human drama at the same time abundant with feelings and elaborate in all its aspects. Its technical and directing elements. | 9 |
As a marvel show, LOKI with Tom H it is a let down.
To be honest I tend to think of this as a sci-fi time travel/branching path adventure.
You could literally rename this show "Time Travel Trapped Guy" and remove all mention of Thor, Asguard and Loki and just rename the characters and that is exactly what it would be..... the ONLY thing Marvel-like in this is the name of the show and some of the characters.... it's just a sci-fi series milking the name/association of the Marvel universe. (Which is a blatant con!) | 5 |
I can not overstate just how good Chernobyl really is! It's one of the best mini-series ever made, it's right up there with Band of Brothers! It absolutely lives up to all the hype and love it's gotten since it first came out! It's one of the top rated shows ever for a reason... because it's fantastic! If you haven't seen this amazing series yet then make sure you do as soon as possible! | 9 |
Most overhyped tarentino movie ever. Stale storyline, slow tempo. Boring lead characters.
Both Leonardo Di'Caprio and Brad Pitt's characters are absolutely boring as hell in this movie. I'm shocked, so much hype around this film and the movie's storyline just really doesn't go anywhere.
My biggest gripe, is that theres no "plot". Just that the movie is just centred around two famous men, one nearly 50 and the other near 60 years old. And just following their absolutely boring storylines. With nothing happening.
There is no major character development around them at all and you really don't care about them, throughout the entire film.
Sure there are other famous faces... I appreciate Margaret Qualley after watching "Maid" and the "Cassie" from "Euphoria".
But everyone else is just bait for ticket sales.
Not an awful movie, but definitely the worst Tarantino movie. Just simple boring AF. | 4 |
The only good thing about the movie is the actors names and that's it | 5 |
Honestly this could have been great but unless you're 12 and under it's not worth watching. It's way too long and even with the 80s theme and the music it still doesn't make for good viewing. The high scores on here must come from those that are easily pleased and prefer content over depth of a story and character building. I gave it 3 for the CGI which is amazing but I would have preferred a film with about 90% less of it as the real world they lived in had alot more interest to it. Bore-a-thon yawn | 3 |
Extremely entertaining show which has several problems that prevent it from getting a higher grade. The animation is a little choppy, I did not feel Jason Sudeikis is the right voice actor for the role. I am excited for how they set up the 2nd season but I did not feel the ending for the first season worked. I like most of the characters and the story. Endless fun. | 7 |
Møkk! Where is Toby Maguire?
This gets so stupid that it hurts. The first tree films where great, the acting in this sucks. ..................

This show has been so boring only 2 episodes in so I'm gonna stick around but I was expecting a lot more. It's slow, the fights are hardly ever shown and when they are parts are cut out to make the creatures invisible and him look like an idiot which should be funny but it's really not I mean I thought this would be insane and hilarious but so far it's been slow and boring and with these marvel shows only being 6 episodes slow and boring is not what you want. | 6 |
This would have been a hit in the early 1990s when Todd McFarlane's artwork opened up a whole new line of making comics. But what does it even mean today? Carnage and Venom fighting off... So?
I can't say I hated the whole experience, but I had difficulty believing this was the best story they could come up with for the sequel. Woddy Harrelson is there to revive the good old days of Natural Born Killers, right? Has it worked out as intended?
The few minutes showing us in stylish inky cartoons the childhood murders of the villain are the most notable part of this movie. Anything else is either unoriginal or late to the party or both.
Michelle Willaims not dying off like Mary Jane is a fine detail, so is the bond between Venom and Eddie, but that's it.
We had to have been impressed in a way we weren't before. That just didn't happen. | 5 |
Solid tv show with some very emotional episodes and moments between characters A couple of things I think they could have improved on would be showing the brutality that Joel had to protect Ellie and I believe we should have seen a bit more of the infected as the world felt empty at times.
Pedro and Bella were very good at playing there characters and I feel all casting for the show was perfect. If you have played the games you would know that in some areas it deviates from the games but all changes they make are good and don't ruin the experience at all!
But overall a very good tv show and would highly recommend. | 8 |
As a person who has been through similar things growing up, I think this show pieced it together brilliantly.
Hit me hard in the chest. Right in the middle.
Emotionally hard to watch at times, but it was a good show!
Enjoy! | 8 |
If you put GOT aside and watch this show on its own merits it still falls way short of being "watchable " And it's definitely not even the same league as GOT. I waited 6 episodes thinking it might take off eventually but never did.its still taxing stopping turn taxing again.
Atrocious cast selection baring Otto who is now gone for example Dr who is the mindless warrior...yep totally fitting. Sub-par acting and story more bland than sugar free ice cream makes for a show just a little more entertaining than watching paint dry.
Only thing going for it is CGI which in this day is no achievement at all. | 1 |
Actually has a promising start but it fell pretty quickly. Nothing happened in the entire movie, it's full of unfunny comedy filler with occasional story clues. The final act is about 1/3 of the total runtime which is bad considering there's no build up to that. They have this nice concept but can't capitalize on it. Too many plot conveniences, such a lazy writing. The jokes are unfunny. Bloated with CGI and over the top action scene but still manages to make itself uninteresting to watch. | 3 |
Movie is only good because of hype and fan base of Tobey and Andrew !!
It is forcibly made movie just to take movie franchise forward that's it !!
For the comfort of a college student , dr strange started playing with universe , and afterwards rather than solving the problems he taught for the good will of the villains who will die after going back to the time he started curing them and messed up with the city !! | 2 |
The relationship between the 2 protagonists was sound and the only interesting part about the film. I don't think it understood what it was trying to be. Incredibly anticlimactic at the end and full of lazy plot devices. I think the actors did pretty well considering their terrible character writing. Could have been brilliant with a decent script. | 5 |
As is customary for all MCU movies, this one is also massively overhyped and overrated. I enjoyed the first Spidey movie (Homecoming) featuring Tom Holland as it was funny, the characters were all likeable and it had a decent story with some twists and unpredictable moments.
This one however, starts off with a stupid but neat idea, the execution, however, is dismal. They just manage to rehash every other Spiderman movie before this and it was stupid, predictable and boring. I felt no chemistry between MJ and Peter this time around and I know they are a couple in real life but in the movie it just didn't work. All the other characters felt bland except for maybe a villain or two.
Overall, I just got bored watching this and am glad I didn't pay to see it in theatres. I thought others would be cured of their MCU disease by now but looking at other reviews it is definitely not the case. Carry on milking this, Disney, seems like there's a lot money to be squeezed out. I am done with this though, enough of this repetitive CGI Superhero/Comics crap. | 3 |
If there wasn't a number 3 in the title, i couldn't be able to realize that i was watching the third movie. In the other hand is a entertaining (not) scary movie. Totally forgettable. | 4 |
I was really looking forward to this show as both the Falcon and the Winter Soldier didn't really get the attention that they deserved in the main movies so I wanted a more in-depth look into these two characters and how they would work together, and on that front it's rather good.
The cinematography, the effects, the writing at times, everything is pretty solid, HOWEVER, the casting for the main "villain" and the new Captain America are rather atrocious.
At no point during this series do you actually care or feel threatened by the main villain, she's just kinda there to push the story forward and not much else.
It's Disney so you know that they have the money to hire someone more experienced and actually "villainy" looking, cause again, the series falls flat on its face almost exclusively because of this and if there's to ever be a second season, they need to find a proper villain, cause this one is terrible.
Then onto the new Captain America...same thing all over, there's nothing special about him, and doesn't hold a candle to what CA is supposed to be, 0 charisma, 0 likeability and the entire show he is kinda sidelined, so he's rather irrelevant, which makes you wonder why they ever brought him back to begin with.
Either way, this one is a mixed bag and rather disappointing as the problem stems from something easily avoidable, like proper casting. | 7 |
A bad travelogue. How long did they want me to wait and watch this lady in her room, on the street, back in her room, in the bar and then back in her room? Bill Murray tried, but he couldn't make this slow-paced, molasses movie move an inch. Pointless and a waste of time. | 2 |
I can honestly say this is worst product netflix has ever made. I wouldnt be surprised to find out Michael Bay was in some kind of competition to see how many unecessary cuts, and explosions he could fit in one film. Ryan Reynolds, incredible has he may be could not save this abomination of a movie. If someone you know recommends this movie to you, it would be in your best interest to never speak to them again. | 1 |
"Talk To Me" is an outstanding movie that redefined the horror genre, impressing audiences with its intense and spine-chilling storyline. The film's exceptional execution and eerie atmosphere make it a must-watch for horror enthusiasts. With a perfect blend of scares and thrills, "Talk To Me" brings back the essence of classic scary movies, offering an experience that leaves viewers on the edge of their seats. It delivers everything one would expect from a top-notch scary movie, and its exceptional storytelling and haunting scenes make it a standout in the genre. Overall, i recommend it 100/10. | 10 |
The first episode was good with an unexpected end. I started watching the second episode which was slow and very boring , so I kept falling asleep .
I was thinking of re-watching the second episode and then watching the third episode . Some people said that the third episode is a throwback episode. I think some people liked it because it was politically correct and some liked it purely because it was an episode of two gay people in a relationship . I don't like throwbacks very much and especially if they're mushy , and sentimental and more so in a horror show. I don't care if the people are gay , straight , bi , or trans etc .
I've seen throwbacks in TWD and it spoiled the Show for me because they were slow , boring and irrelevant . If I wanted to see mush then I'd watch a show that was I knew had mush in it . ( And I don't like mushy shows or films ) I don't want to see blood and guts . I want to see a fun , exciting and intelligent show . I also want it to be fast based . I don't like a slow burner that takes ages to get to a point and by the time it does you've lost interest !
I still haven't decided if I'm going to carry on with this show. | 3 |
In a world saturated by the superhero genre 'The Boys' is the pallet cleanser you didn't know you needed. It's funny, shocking and at times touching and is anchored by the very believable perfomances of Quaid and Moriarty as the two lead protagonists. The narrative touches on very real issues if you're the kind that likes scratching below the surface, but if all you like is action and things blowing up then you won't be disappointed either. There's something for everyone. Even Karl Urban's heroic failure of a Cockney accent is not enough to distract from the stellar production. Cannot wait for season 2. | 9 |
Watched this movie in 2021 and frustrated of myself how could I missed such awesome movie. Same time I feel lucky that somehow got a small clip of the movie on Facebook and that scene was such beautifully pictured and heart melting, I was forced to download the movie. Truly saying this is one of the fantastic movie and a must watch one. I don't know this was a hit movie or not in 2012 during release but I feel also in today's time if it will be released, will do a superb business in box-office. The gergeous deepika, natural actor saif and the pretty lady Diana did amazing work in this movie. The movie is a pack of drama, comedy, emotional Love and at last beautiful friendship relation. I am glad Today I watched it. I laughed, felt romantic and also it made me cry while watching the picture. While watching I also realised why saif Ali Khan is considered as the legend actor of his time. The flawless acting of deepika and the debutant Diana also won everyone's heart with her amazing acting skill. So happy that I watched it, just it made my day! | 10 |
Community follows a group of people from varying backgrounds in varying parts of their lives who are united in a study group at a community college.
I watched the majority of this show alone. Watching it with someone else is a lot more fun though. I don't think I ever actually laughed as hard alone as I did with other people. Sure, it's still funny when you watch it alone. You'll look back on it fondly, but in the moment you just think "Oh that's funny" and that's that. That's not to say that I didn't enjoy watching it alone, but it's just more fun with people.
The characters are, of course, the main focus of the show. Their all pretty good, but they never really change throughout the series. That's not a bad thing, though, at least they're consistent. But there's never really any big character developments.
Something I loved was how self-aware the show could be. Sometimes it was as blatant as simply stating "We're aware of how dumb this scenario is" while other times it was more subtle. Most of the time it worked, and it just showed how much effort was put into the show as opposed to some other sitcoms. It understood what good-quality, clever humor was and worked to achieve that.
Overall Community is good. It's fun to watch alone, but more so with other people to laugh along with. Along with some good characters and the self-aware humor, it's definitely one of the better sitcoms out there. In the end I would recommend this show. | 8 |
This was a pleasant surprise. Lots and LOTS of action but the story itself was weak. Not really much of a story at all, to be honest. Honestly, there isn't much to write home about with this movie outside the fact that it's basically 'Call of Duty' meets 'John Wick.' It's a fun way to spend a night and probably has some re-watch value if you're bored enough.
***Side Note Rant***
Yeah, I get how some Bengali would feel some type of way of how Dhaka is portrayed in the film. One thing I don't appreciate is how those same people will quickly associate the violence and action portrayed in the film to African countries (which have also been one-sided and poorly represented in the world media for decades). You kind of lose the point of your argument when you use other counties' hyper stigmatized issues as a shield to defend your own representation. I'm with you on the misrepresentation, but please, STFU on using African countries as your go-to scapegoate. | 6 |
As a darker than coal Cuban veteran I really enjoy anti white narration of this film. My only concern is, why this dumb people in america do it to themselves? It is suspicious. | 4 |
I'm not even going to get into the plot or events as they are played out. I'm sickened by this movie just like Superman v Batman. Seriously? We can't find enough bad guys, no, we have to take our heroes and tear them apart. Pitting two of our more famous "good guys" against each other brings out the worst in them. Alas it doesn't just bring out the worst in them, simply by forcing other heroes to take sides we ruin their reputations as well. "Heroes" fighting against "Heroes" shows us we really don't have any heroes left to root for. Thanks for ruining our heroes for us.
Bottom line in the Marvel Universe? There are NO good guys. Just shades of bad. | 1 |
I hate movies that just resets everything and says "Everything before means nothing". And this movie is exactly that. X-men made no difference in the world and they all died in a very stupid way. Just for the sake of retiring Hugh Jackman from the franchise. How can Jean Grey die? The writer obviously has no understanding of the material. Not only that, has no continuity. How did Wolverine get his adamantium claw back from the previous Wolverine in Japan? What's worse is that the director of that Wolverine and Logan is same guy.
People just like this movie for all the gore and rated R content. Which I don't mind. But has to have a viable story. | 5 |
An 8.6 rating overall....that must be pretty good I thought. But it was all boring, every episode. Disappointing!! | 6 |
My complaints aren't just about Clooney's fuel usage, their inertia when going to the ISS, or Bullock's underwear. That's the obvious stuff. What's less obvious is there is little adherence to orbital mechanics in *any* of the film. You can't just point the re-entry vehicle at Earth. You'd have to fire your rockets to decelerate enough to begin losing altitude and so you're slow enough that the friction as you descend into thicker atmosphere safely continues to decelerate you using the heat shield. That is a BIG deal. The atmosphere is otherwise lethal to you, heat shield or not.
Sure, stuff superficially moves basically o.k. And is kind of floaty and equal-but-opposite-reactiony, but most everything else is wrong. It's not just inertia here or a lack of anything pulling Clooney away from the structure there. The latter "heroic disconnect scene" could have been fixed with just rotating the damaged station to give them centrifugal force. Gravity is a negligible effect, since they're already in orbit (i.e going real fast laterally and being high enough to be out of the thick atmosphere so they don't burn up). Rotation is easy enough to do with CGI elements, too, and logical since the ISS was just hit by debris. Just requires some expensive computer time at the FX house re-rendering that scene using the already-built 3D models and textures. In fact, you could leave all the principle scene elements as-is and just revolve the Earth around them in the background slowly. Bingo, stupid physics moment solved.
That's unforgivable, but what's more unforgivable is the just point-and-fire-your-rocket view of orbital physics in getting from one place to another that occurs repeatedly! Even if miraculously all of those stations and the shuttle were nearby and visible with the naked eye, which is completely ludicrous unless they made some point of saying they'd all just rendezvoused recently for some long-planned joint venture with the Hubble telescope (hard even in real life), you'd still never be able to get there in a strait line. Orbital mechanics is all about change in velocity governing altitude and then arc rendezvous paths. If you magically had enough fuel and thrust, you'd have to change your velocity, change your orbital path, and loop around a few times until you meet-up with the other object. Otherwise, you'd end up in front of or behind the object depending on your altitude differential. And that's even if you're lucky enough to just so happen to be going in the same direction before you begin the maneuver, which is just about never.
That's actually what's so dangerous and crazy about orbital mechanics: even in the unlikely event the ISS or Chinese space station could be seen and you had A LOT of leftover fuel after your stupid Abyss-opening-scene-like joyriding (yeehaw!), you wouldn't be able to reach it. That's pretty dramatic, in my opinion. The lack of air and the possibility of space junk causing you to explode into a mess of sparks aren't really the most interesting part of this orbital stuff, in my opinion. Everything is moving fast up there (otherwise you would fall back to Earth) and it takes a lot of energy to change the arrangement, let alone do that in a way that matches with the path of anything else, let alone actually meet-up with it.
There are people making the argument that you can't have a dramatic and captivating movie where all this is accurately portrayed. What about Das Boot, Alive, Men of Honor, K2, Pressure, Everest? They all tried to be realistic about other dangerous environments that cut you off from civilization and safety. I realize The Martian tried this a little, but that's more obvious and had its own issues. Besides, Matt was on another planet. What about the bizarreness of being right there, visible to someone with a telescope, and there's nothing anyone can do to save you? That interests me. I don't think you have to severely compromise physics to have drama and keep people in the seats, rather in the case of an orbital emergency film, the physics is where much of the danger comes from. | 5 |
Tom Hardy is again the right choice to play Venom, unfortunately both Tom Hardy + Kelly Marcel ( though a better combination than Venom's original screen writer's which included Kelly Marcel ) only deliver a decent script & having the actor Andy Serkis ( = Gollum in LOTR ) be the Director for this was ridiculous as where is the tried & trusted for such a big budget movie? ( another massive gamble risked on a "comic book movie" that fails once again, as why do they gamble? ).
As when will film studios give "super hero films" the respect deserved.
All they want to do is cash in on the hope of the audience that the film might be great, but end up letting down the audience with mediocrity.
Like the first film ( to a lesser margin but still too many times ) there are scenes where characters in the scenes do not act or react like you can believably accept as an audience member. It takes you out of the film & you can't then truly enjoy the experience from start to end. Once again the special effects are top notch but are let down by another lazy script.
We need quality character arcs ( with a bit of dark humour from Venom which there is in the movie, but could have been better still if the script overall was better as unfortunately the script got a bit too far fetched ).
Venom could have been a truly great series of super hero movies as quite frankly if you would have had a proven Director & writer team like Jonathan Nolan ( writer ) & Christopher Nolan ( writer & Director ) make Venom & Venom 2 you would have had a 10 out of 10 film with Tom Hardy as the lead actor, however we did not get proven talent in the Director & writing roles for a blockbuster film so it ended up OK.
Marvel unfortunately has been on a seriously bad decline since Disney got their hands on the franchise, as they really killed it off as compared to some of the absolute Marvel disasters at least Venom is still an OK watch however all these films had the potential to be a lot more than it proved they would be & that is simply because the corporations & the people with the power decided to put unproven Directors & writers in charge of these big budget films ( they gambled big, then lost big too ). | 7 |
The theatre was filled to the brim with 99% women and girls wearing pink, we felt united in the moment of watching such a beautiful film. It's a comedy but it also offers a glimpse into the real world and what it's like for girls and women daily. It was beautiful and i can only wish for more people to go and see it. The laughs and the jokes were only a small portion of the emotions we felt we could just let out, it was emotional in the best way possible and was a moment that i am thankful i could share with my bestfriend. Directors like Greta Gerwig are what we need in this world for it to be complete. | 10 |
I watched the movie with high hopes, because of the after Oscar's publicity. I hate to tell you, but I do not see the Oscar's in this movie. I do not see the excellent acting. Or the brilliant script. The storyline is very vague and most of the time you do not understand what are the dialogues about. Apart from few photographically nice scenes, the whole movie is just absurd, like a bad joke. Do not see the art, neither the blockbuster. Even the action scenes are long and a bit dull. I would define not remember it tomorrow, and I would definitely not suggest it to anyone else. Overall, I am happy I saw it for free.. | 4 |
I like musicals. I like it very much. In a fact I love them. My brother used to tease me because of that. But this is boring. There is no story, not a song to tackle you to stand up and dance (except AHA - "Take on me" on the pool). I cannot imagine why this film got so many Oscars? Rely why? I have switched channel after 45 minutes. Did not want to ruin my entire Sunday evening. | 1 |
Definitely not bad, but not Marvel's best work either. The story seems to have a pacing problem. Some scenes feel rushed while others drag on. We do not get to see much action of the actual Moon Knight either.
To Oscar Isaac's credit, he puts up an absolute master class on acting.
It's not bad, but if you haven't watched it yet you can skip this one. | 5 |
I liked 6 Underground, but I don't love it, it was watchable, lots of energy and amazing stunts and an interesting story concept, but I don't feel any better or worse for having watched it, other than giving me something to do on an otherwise boring evening.
It almost feels like it was trying to hard to be the next Mission Impossible franchise.
What makes a movie worth a persons valuable time is whether or not at the conclusion of the story, I care about the characters and feel resolved about the its conclusion.
6 Underground spends the majority of the movie introducing the background of it's team members who how it's leader found them, and then doesn't provide enough time to develop the relationships among the team members to make me feel connected, instead it comes to a rather quick ending built solely around the resolution of a specific story.
Ultimately, it is a bunch of mini background stories, and then a single story which just felt to short.
I think a sequel to 6 Underground could actually be a welcomed improvement now that the character introductions are out of the way and the overall purpose of the team is established. | 7 |
This film is surprisingly good. I used the term "surprisingly" because I generally do not like Indian movies. I love Aishwarya Rai, but usually not when I see her in Indian movies.
Well, this one was an exception. It's historical (more or less :d ), it's romantic, sufficiently cheesy, it has action and Aishwarya Rai is absolutely gorgeous.
Sure, some fighting scenes could have used a slightly better choreography, but other than that, I don't have anything else bad to say about it. I'm only sorry I saw it 10 years after its release.
All-in-all, I enjoyed every minuted of it. | 10 |
The soundtrack was amazing 10 for the soundtrack. The characters and everything were nice, but the music did not match the time of the film at all it was tacky. Also, the film was way off from what really happened. I understand that films aren't always historically accurate, but this was beyond that. The bearded lady wold never had have all of that cleavage at that time. At that time people would faint when they saw all of that cleavage. Then really a white boy and a girl of another race it's sad to say this, but at that time if he actually grew up with money it's highly improbable. Also, half of the characters in the film did not exist in real history. So many historical inaccuracies it's sad. I understand some but not this much. I've not seen so many since the unsinkable molly brown. Overall the soundtrack was amazing. The movie was charming but it was not practical at all. | 4 |
Let's start by saying acting was good. But visuals sucked. And story was like a copy of Lion King. My least favorite marvel studios film. Felt out of place to other marvel films, the only thing that tied it to the others was the end credits. Best part of the movie was Michael B Jordan's acting, on point. Sorry bandwagon I am not jumping on this one. | 4 |
Waist of your precious time Why bother to ask any questions? | 1 |
Season 1 and 2 is worth watch. While, season 3 and 4 is little disappointing. However, it is compensated with strong finals episode of season 4. Season 1 is for sure worth watch! | 8 |
Today is international women's day and this movie is a perfect gift. Kangna acts super fantastic with her cute expressions as a typical Desi girl who loves her family, gets over the fear and humiliation of no marriage and lives her own life to the full. First half is very pleasant, Lisa has a good comeback to this movie and impresses well. "London Thumukda" song makes audience tap their feet once. I had no idea that Kangna can live up to this mark, her appearance is quite impressive and i guess every Indian girl will like her. If you are assuming her to be the same as in "Tanu weds Manu", you are mistaken. You will not be disappointed. My rating: 8/10 | 8 |
If you give it a chance and get through season 1, which is the setting up of everything that comes after, you're in for a hell of a ride!
You've got espionage, secret agents, super-powered people, aliens, robots, artificial intelligences, strange worlds, other dimensions, ghosts and spirits, time travel, space stuff and great plot twists. A lot of fun!
And the last season is the best. | 8 |
My next Adam Sandler Film after Uncut Gems. It was ok. Not that bad, I actually liked it at some moments. But nothing more than a normal comedy. 54/100 | 5 |
There's a joke in the Barbie movie where the Barbies distract the Kens by saying they've never seen the Godfather only to have it eagerly explained to them. Oppenheimer has now joined that illustrious list of films. This movie is such a pretentious, and I'm very confused by any means of the movie. The whole movie and the plot, the story, and the music itself is garbage
A major folly in the writing here is that there are too many characters. Nolan was determined not to condense real life figures into fictional ones for brevity. There are so many characters whose introductions are barely highlighted but they become instrumental later on. Rami Malek's character is actually pretty damn important in the end, and both of us will be damned if Oppenheimer outgross this movie. The characters in Oppenheimer is such a naive, and flawed all at once, and the character development for Oppenheimer is 0. I don't even think it was mentioned until he pops up again when he is actually affecting the plot.
I'm calling it a boycott of this movie due to some controversies. | 2 |
I have seen the first two episodes only and my review will be based upon that only at this time. This show appears to be a love story comedy and soap opera all rolled into one long and boring I Love Genie copy. For those of you that have seen the I Love Genie tv show from many decades past, it is a very similar show in both story and execution. For that I automatically subtract points on originality. The fact that it's a dramatic love story makes it a far departure from what Marvel has traditionally provided for us. As of the first few episodes there is no action at all, no super hero adventures, no super villains that we are aware of beyond the next door neighbour who may be part of something nefarious. That has yet to be known, but what is known is that this show is boring for me. The very fact that they put the Marvel name on this show leads one to believe that there would be some super hero action and adventure, but the only adventure we ever receive was none at all!
I am sorry to say that this show receives a 4/10 from me. The acting is good by the protagonists but no amount of great acting can save an overall very poor effort at writing this story and script. Overall, don't waste your time trying to be entertained by this stinker of a show. I will check back in after a few more episodes in case things improve. | 4 |
I've no idea why this has such high ratings, it is not great at all. It isn't terrible but I just found it pretty dull, it's like it could be a spin off to that Hercules show with Kevin Sorbo except they've thrown in some gratuitous boobs to try and emulate Game of Thrones.
Superman does his best but he's not got much to work with, Geralt just comes across as really boring.
This feels like a missed opportunity, I must admit I haven't read any of the source material but there seems enough in here to make a great programme, it's just been executed pretty badly. | 5 |
In itself this could be a nice movie if you enjoy the 'Whodunnit' style that was mostly popularized by Agatha Cristie. But everytime Daniel Craig appears you want to fast forward. Completely incomprehensible why he would put on such a sully accent when everyone knows him from other movies, of course the James Bond ones, as a British actor. Unnecessary and spoiling. My five stars are on the generous side, it is not the worst movie I ever saw, but pretty awful. | 5 |
Could have made in 2 hours. Watched for Rajkumar Rao | 3 |
The show's characters are based upon the book 'Red Dragon'.It is nicely crafted and all characters seems to add depth to the story. The plot revolves around an FBI criminal profiler who is gifted with an ability to look at a crime seen from the eyes of the killer, but this ability makes him vulnerable to horrifying hallucinations.On the other hand Dr.Hannibal Lector looks like a well groomed psychoanalyst who seems to understand Will's problem.
The cinematography is superb and the acting is good so I think all in all this seems to be the next big thing in the genre of Crime and Thrillers as far as TV shows are concerned. | 8 |
Set aside from my personal first hand knowledge of the content shown in the movie, this is a great movie , especially compared to everything done these days as movies. That being said, ironic as it is, i was on a plane to comeback home from Afghanistan when i was writing a lesson on IED's and UXO's when i found in the planes LCD panel the movie Hurt Locker. That was way before it won best movie and i don't even account that in my opinion. I was entertained , really, for good and 'bad' reasons.
The goods, good acting, realistic camera view, SOME basics in IED's TTP's (Tactics,Techniques and Procedures)and also some accurate military details. Which for the everyday people can be quite thrilling and appealing as an action movie. I must first say, it is easy to critic a movie , but i strictly point out things i know for a fact, unlike some people.
I'll to that that most of the bad things can't be seen or detected by an uninformed public, so that is why Hurt Locker has been so well received. To inform you,the bad things are; EOD are almost VIP's,they go in when it is as secure as it can be possibly made and kept that way as long as it needs to, that car would never had made it that far without being shot at, TriggerMan's hunting is the the QRF's ( Quick Response/Reaction Force)job, not the EOD's ,they are way too valuable to risk getting shot in an ambush, worst for my part is to so badly represent SAS in the sniper firefight, SAS are the best and oldest SF, no way in hell an EOD pair hit a running guy at min 800m upward with mirage effect and wind swirling with no marksmanship badge in sight ... As grasping as lifting 6 arty shell can be, no tech would ever attempt that, for the simple fact that there maybe a pressure plate underneath the whole thing... There is more ,but you get the idea...
Like i said it little details you don't see when you are stunned by the images themselves, but leave a bitter taste when you know first hand what the movie is about.Don't get me wrong , i own the movie on Blu-ray now and will watch it from time to time. I actually use this movie in my lesson as a tool of what NOT to and what to look for in combat theater. | 5 |
Pankaj Tripathi is too good nailed it so as others. | 8 |
The treatment of the story and the elements are fresh for a mainstream story. The film gave me a fun ride and it was a delight to watch Adam Sandler & Jennifer Aniston together. Best for OTT platform. | 6 |
This show has a lot going for it. Nick Offerman is enough to tune in. I'd watch Nick sitting by a fireplace drinking whiskey for 10 hours no problem. The premise is interesting and the overall story good enough to wanna watch, the acting is superb across the board. The giant doll is creepy and set a nice mood. The sets great. Almost everything cinematic is as good as it can be. The little sci-fi we see is interesting, not really new nor original, but interesting.
However there are a lot of annoying traits that make me lower the score. The editing is atrocious - jump, jump. The same scene can have 67 different camera angles and jumps. The music is the worst ever - it is supposed to be unnerving and make you feel dread or something, but it just comes off extremely annoying. The editing together with the music make certain scenes feel like you are watching a child playing with the remote while another child is beating a piano with a trumpet. So freaking annoying. I assume the director, editor and music guy believe they are creating some kind of artsy nerve-wreaking sci-fi thriller, but instead they ruin scene after scene after scene. The editing get a lot better in the third episode, so I hope they keep that part better, but the music is the worst ever put to TV, whomever is responsible for the music and to decide to incorporate it is this planets dumbest person.
Another negative is that they sometimes reveal too much, and sometimes too little, and they do so in a very obvious; "we want to hide this from you for the time being" and; "we tell you everything about this event because we do not want you to think about it too much". If you really want to create a good thriller story there are some thing better left for the imagination, and other things you do tell the audience, in this show they almost do the complete opposite. They tell us what we should not know, and they hide what we should know. It is hard to explain without spoilers, but you will immediately figure out what I mean if you watch it. What point is there to watch a thriller show when all the suspense and thriller aspects have already been told to the audience?
The third negative I can find is that the Government "oversight" and evil senators etc. is so cliche by now that you can basically copy paste from TV to movie back to TV from 100s of examples. Please find something more original...
I constantly get the feeling that this is a great amazing show, but for some reason it does not come out in the first two episodes, in the third it is much better and I will actually up the grade from a 5/10 to a 6/10. The actors and the story deserve better though, so exchange the music guy and keep it going as in the third episode and please introduce something more interesting than run of the mill government evil types.
I am intrigued, mainly because the acting is so great, and I will continue to watch with the hope that this will get even better - oh and I have seen plenty of comments mumbling about quantum computer, and yes that is one of the reveals (small spoiler) but I would rather say it is about wave functions, and very few seem to get that. | 7 |
I wonder why the movie is rated so high , although I think the acting is perfect but the storyline is alot a annoying , joker doesn't have any combat skills or military background but he managed to escape a secure police station, batman has more than a hundred chance to kill him but he let him go even though the joker killed so much cops and innocent citizens seriously I see no point to this movie this is one of the reasons I hate the batman franchise. | 3 |
Checking the requisite Oscar boxes, Ron Howard sanded off all the actual cruel edges of a genius suffering with very real and horrendous paranoid schizophrenia in a largely fictitious tale of how love can conquer all. Unfortunately, the Hollywood treatment conveniently ignored the hard realities of what was actually a fascinating biography of a man struggling a lifetime to balance his genius and madness, leaving viewers with an abundance of sanitized movie madness scenes, very little glimpses of genius, and a romantic relationship with no apparent basis. Read the book - would that the screenwriter and director had done so. | 3 |
Watching the first season again, after the second was released, cause it took too much time between them. And I don't regret, many things got cleared now.
Maybe I take the book to read, but till now, Cavil is the best Geralt it could ever exist! | 9 |
Yes it had potential, they kept it simple and real, real life problems that real families have to go through today, and will continue to, and that is why I praise the subject matter. But as a film the narrative really stalled when it hit the third act, and this is where it could have really grounded you as the audience and kept you in your seat thinking about it, long after the credits. But it just didn't, it was a very boring end and you just didn't find yourself caring enough which was unfortunate.
The film was well made, the setting, sound production, direction all seemed to click together nicely. The acting was slight, and restrained in a very real kinda way, this was unique and worked well for the first two acts, just... But a coming of age story still needs an edge to it, to engage the audience, and this is where you were left wondering... An Oscar worthy picture...? I didn't think so... | 2 |
The episodes are entertaining... Sometimes with a slow pace & "easy to remove" scenes. They should have worked harder on the plot holes. Some characters are hard to swallow whether good or bad fellas. | 7 |
This will be one of my simplest film reviews on IMDB, as it is pretty clear to me along what lines this film will be split. Casual fans of the Harry Potter universe? They'll probably leave a bit disappointed or mystified. The true Potterheads (who know every nook and cranny of that universe)? My bet is that they'll come away with a much greater sense of enjoyment.
For a basic plot summary, "Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them" tells the story of Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne), a young wizard with a penchant for studying odd creatures. While just trying to conduct his studies, he gets mixed up in a power struggle between the muggles (or "no-mags" as they are referred to here) and the wizarding community. His only ally seems to be Tina (Katherine Waterston). In a separate subplot, a wizard named Graves (Colin Farrell) is fixated on a boy named Credence Barebone (Ezra Miller), who seems to be more key to this storyline than his meek appearance would suggest.
I consider myself a very casual fan of the Harry Potter franchise. I've read all the books, watched all the movies...and that's it. No multiple readings/viewings, no obsession over all the little details and names. To me, the Potter universe is more shallow than deep (my own experience here...I know that universe is indeed quite rich if one chooses to do a deep-dive). I enjoyed watching Harry and Co. grow up in their journey together, but that is about where "Harry Potter" ends for me.
As a result, there are two reasons why I found this movie to be just middle-of-the-road:
1. Put plainly, the story of Newt Scamander just isn't as engrossing as the other previous material. Whether this was meant to be the case (more of a "side quest" mentality) or whether the execution was flawed I can't say for sure, but to me this was a tale that just kind of meandered in terms of narrative. For a movie that is supposed to be the launching point for main character Scamander, it sure spends a lot of time elsewhere. One wonders, then, if Scamander was used more as an "excuse" to re-enter the wizarding world than being fleshed out as a great character within it. Even the charming acting of Redmayne couldn't quite make me believe that I was seeing anything special in this case.
2. This is the kind of movie that obviously is building off fragments of the Potter universe. Because most fans are of the obsessive variety, I think, there isn't all that much context given. The film just assumes that a base layer of knowledge is already present in viewers...a base layer that I did not posess. A good example of this: the reveal of the name Grindewald in the opening minutes of the film. That name did nothing for me, and nothing was ever really done to hammer the significance home. The film just assume viewers know the significance of his place in the wizard world.
So, I think this is one of those reviews that leans more towards my subjectivity than perhaps the overall quality of the film. This isn't a bad film by any stretch of the imagination. Based on filmmaking alone, it is probably more of a 7-star film. However, in terms of its appeal to me personally, it gets dropped down a few pegs. I'm just not a big enough Potter fan to understand all the little inside winks-and-nods or "easter eggs", and those are things that must be understood to truly be enveloped in the experience. | 5 |
Iron Man 2 focuses on humor, rather than action or excitement and this causes the movie to be mild. Iron Man 2 is entertaining, but entertainment comes from humor most of the time. Therefore, Iron Man 2 is more like a Saturday show, a Saturday night entertainment than an exciting super hero movie which has a lot of action. Probably it is because the director, Jon Favreau is a director who made comedy movies like Elf or Zathura and the screen writer is the writer of Tropic Thunder, then much (sometimes too much) humor is inevitable. This is what Iron Man 2 has. In addition, the execution and the story were better in the first installment. However, there is a more interesting villain played by great Mickey Rourke (even if even this character is mostly passive throughout) The villain of the first movie was a businessman as known. There are some great visuals, War Machine played by Don Cheadle is included in the team, there are nice cameos like Samuel L. Jackson and Scarlett Johannson is really sexy. There are a few real wow moments and most of them are in The Grand Prix scene. It was the best scene of the movie to me. It could have been longer, but it is definitely satisfying. However, till the final part, you have to wait, if you want to see action. Probably, directors have started to believe that in an action movie, if there is less action, but more drama, the movie becomes more deep and more serious. Some people call this as Spider-Man 3 syndrome. Iron Man 2 suffers from this syndrome at times, in the middle part of the movie. It makes us feel like we watch a comedy drama and this is not surprising, because as I mentioned, the director of the movie is Jon Favreau who made comedy movies, played in comedy movies and the script writer of the movie is Justin Theroux who wrote a comedy before, Tropic Thunder. As for the characters, Robert Downey Junior is again the star of the movie, but he was more funny, cool and witty in the first movie. Natasha Romanoff played by Scarlett Johannson is passive most of the time, the operation scene was entertaining, but it is sad that this character consists of a few showy acts. Ivan Vanko (Rourke) is not a wasted character like Natasha Romanoff, but mostly he sits down and masterminds the chaos. Then, he is included in a disappointing and too short final fight (a few minutes) It starts and finishes in a trice. There are three action parts in the movie. The first one is The Grand Prix scene, in the second one, Iron Man and War Machine are included in a chaos (pretty long) and the third one is the final fight. As a result, Iron Man is very humorous at times, entertaining at times, otherwise disappointing. | 4 |
So many questions, what's wrong with me? Why is the contrast between the average and my rating so big? Am I the only one with this deception level? Did I actually see Interstellar or did I watch an amateur makeover? I just cannot understand why Mr. Nolan burned so much money on a movie so less convincing when it comes to special effects, emotional depth, character complexity and overall credibility? Why losing so much time in the boring first hour and rush in the end? Why is this movie a bad mixture of The Knightrider and Flash Gordon to me? Is it the infant approach of the development of the emotions? Is it the acting capacity of McConaughey that looks like a bad copy of David Hasselhoff in The Knightrider? What's wrong with me? | 2 |
Ok, I really loved the first three episodes, because they were different. It wasn't the typical marvel formula (which isn't a bad thing) of just action and fake science talk. It was a bit creepy at times, and was genuinely enjoyable to watch. Of course, those are the episodes people criticized for being 'boring', and using sitcom tropes. Well, the point of those episodes is that they were using sitcom tropes and putting a twist on it. You did watch it, didn't you? Anyways, after that, we start to see the typical MCU stuff, just without the action, so we just get fake science talk. I do like Jimmy Woo, though. Both of the villains are bad, especially the one that worked for S.W.O.R.D. (I can't even remember his name), so much fake science talk, and a lot of time spent outside the sitcom style. The sitcom style bits were really fun, that's why the first three episodes were so great. Also, the action in this show wasn't needed. I really didn't want this show to have a big action packed climax, but who am I kidding? It's a Marvel show. All in all, first three episodes 8/10, rest of it 5/10, I'd say that averages to about a 6/10 overall. | 6 |
Movie is full of action, very good location, very good actors, story is common Hollywood Action movie story, Movie location is claimed India and Mostly Bangladesh. BUT A very poor direction by some stuntman and Poor editing and dialogues makes Stars like Chris and Randeep Hooda worthless. In short movie is hardly 5/10
Bagladeshis giving it 1/10 and Indians giving 9-10/10 rating showes is not correct. | 3 |
This show has great acting, directing, scenery. It's very picturesque! The fight scenes are great, there's some memorable dialogues and monologues, and all. But in the end, it's your typical superhero stuff! I've just gotten tired of the same old textbook superhero story.
Everything is so typical, and it feels silly sometimes. The ending of Season 1 is anti-climactic in my opinion, once I saw the guy in a tight suit it hit me how silly this whole superhero stuff is, and how I've wasted about 11 hours watching season 1.
Will surely not be completing this show. I'M DONE!
Wouldn't recommend this if you've watched some superhero shows or movies before. | 6 |
An ode to the 80's goes sideways. I mean does anyone check the release date on songs from The Bangles(1987), etc, in a show that is supposed to begin in 1983. The acting is subpar and let's be honest, Winona Ruder may be one of the worst actors of all time. She is an albatross around the show's neck. This is also perhaps one of the most overhyped shows of all-time. Pass me a Tab. | 5 |
Absolute muck turned it off after 10 mins it's trying to be Deadpool meets the fast and the furious | 2 |
The movie disappointed me, I was expecting it to be at the same level as the first part, but it was significantly less than the level of the first part. The first hour of the movie was very boring and I could hardly watch it, except for Newt. The rest of the main characters were not at the same level as the first part. The movie spoiled Tina's character. Annoying, Jacob's character wasn't quite as good as in the first part, Leta's character was really bad, I didn't like Credence and didn't care who his mother was, and his relationship with Nagini was boring, Grindelwald looks like an amazing villain especially at the end of the movie. | 5 |
All I can say is I dosed off a few times. No drugs needed because this is a snooze feast 😪😪😴😴😴 | 2 |
I like Ryan Reynolds (hard not to), and wish he could get himself into better fare and better scripts because he's capable of it. There are the smash hit Deadpool movies of course, which he's perfectly suited to, but also see his nice work in Woman in Gold (2015) and The Hitman's Bodyguard (2017) which show more of his range. Anyway -- "6 Underground" is very much in the same genre as the later Fast and Furious franchise output, and neither much better nor much worse than any of those. Six agents fake their own deaths and make up a Mission-Impossible-type team of anonymous vigilantes who can operate outside the law and take down the worst baddies out there. In this case, it's the standard-issue evil dictator of "Turgistan".
The plot is just a thin device to connect together three or four major action segments. The first and maybe best is an extended car-chase scene through Florence (and the sets are the real thing). Well done, but why do the police and bad guys seem to have an endless supply of cars and cycles to reappear anywhere and everywhere behind them? Since this is a Michael Bay film, don't bother asking. He likes to blow things up and fire lots of guns, so that's what's going to happen.
It's technically well done and injects just enough human interest through the past lives of the 6 to make it all watchable, but I can't see this spawning a franchise. | 5 |
I persuaded my wife to come see this movie, based mainly on Tom Hardy, who's always worth a watch. She's not a big fan of 'sci-fi', or any similar sub-genre, but, I assured her, its bound to be watchable. Sure, Mr H was watchable as ever. But his grinning, lip-licking alter-ego was just daft. At one point, the creature, Venom, actually said something like 'Me like her', rather than 'I like her.' Just like the Cookie Monster. And of course it went on about 34 minutes too long. And of course the long, drawn-out CGI fight scenes were yawningly predictable. I'm afraid it just reminded me why we go to the movies so infrequently. | 3 |
Yes, the special effects were impressive - but they just went on too long. The first segment, where she was teaching him about Pandora, had some magnificent effects, but I really did not need 20 minutes to get the point. Then, the first "war" although horrible enough in its unreasonable ferocity of modern war power against the natives with only arrows and spears was followed up with another one, even more horrible, purely for the sake of the special effects. I was holding my ears and closing my eyes, the mass destruction of these wonderful people was all too close to the American destruction of the native American Indians, with all its destructiveness. There was no character development, the acting was so simplistic, the plot formulaic, the dialog trite and simple.
I wanted to like this film, but was ready to leave about half way though - and if Cameron had held to a disciplined directing mode it would only have been half as long and a much better picture. | 4 |
If you want a TV show with suspense/drama/action this is the show for you. Half the time you're watching this show you're literally sitting on the edge of your seat waiting to see what happens next. How is Jack Bauer going to get himself out of his most recent pickle? Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer is truly one of the greatest TV characters ever created right up there with the likes of Vic Mackey, Tony Soprano, Omar Little and so on.
The supporting characters on 24 are just as great with David Palmer, Tony Almeida, Chloe O'Brian, Nina Myers, Michelle Dressler, Aaron Pierce, Bill Buchanan and so on. | 10 |
The movie is beautiful in terms of the animation, but the storyline is ridiculous. Half of the population of Africa is uneducated and isolated and super metal cannot help them to acquire knowlege or build a super power. Particular when society is so conservative and hold on tradition. We know : hold on tradition + conservatism = no progress. I know it is fairytale but it does not make sense at all. If it was about some forgotten European colony or Some small asian or european country, it would make sense but not about some african tribes... For example, Doctor Strange, is based on believe that we can do everything with our mind; it is based on action philosophies and science. Yes it is exaggerated in the movie but still it make sense. Black Panther is just Why? What? How? It is ridiculous how much meaning people put in this movie | 4 |
This was a pretty good movie in the Poirot and Mrs. Marple style. However, the detective was Daniel Craig, and his awful, phony, amateurish accent was so bad it made me want to pull my hair out. He needs to stick with playing James Bond, where his poor acting skill is partially covered by the continuing action scenes. I can't begin to understand why Craig was cast in such a key role. Well, he blew it, embarrassingly so. It could have been much better with Dilbert cast in that role. Seriously, Daniel Craig? | 6 |
I seriously don't think the amount of violence and sex in the series is justified. At times, it seemed as if the scenes were forcefully included to invite more edgy audience. That being said, I think Nawaz deserves some serious applause for his role. The atmosphere that Nawaz creates around him in all 8 episodes makes me stumble in the thin line between script and reality. I wouldn't mind being occupied with anticipation for the next season. | 7 |
Let me preface by saying that I really liked how black people's rights (both social and civil) were highlighted throughout the show, equally so the highlighting of policy-making in practice.
However... the plot is so incredibly frustrating. Even for Marvel's standards it's unimaginatively simple and it pretty much feels like most of the dialogue was written by a five year old. Most characters are just plain annoying, and the "twists" just make you roll your eyes. I honestly don't understand how we got here from movies like Endgame - is everything ok Marvel/Disney? | 6 |
All I can say about Lost in Translation is that it was one the most boring movies that I've ever seen. It wasn't funny, the plot was dumb, and the acting was nothing special. Bill Murray was being himself, which is annoying enough, so why was he nominated for Best Actor? Why was this movie nominated for anything? Why did so many people like this movie? I chuckled a little bit during the exercise bike part. I don't recommend this movie to anyone. It reaffirmed my dark hatred for Bill Murray. If you liked this movie, see a doctor because I think you need help right away. I give this bad excuse for a movie 0 stars. The only thing good about this movie was that the running time was short, but the movie seemed like 3 hours. | 1 |
Hmmm American bond visits various countries to save the world but with added cheese
I was willing for bombs to detonate in the end but alas another outing for the white widow beckons
No thanks Tom | 4 |
Matrix was awesome movie in the year 99 and few more years after that.. but honestly you can't watch this now.. Its so funny if you watch it now.. the action sequels.. Some funny dialogues.. Its crazy and now movies looks so stupid.. Finally .. it looks like a Call center company trying to recruit random people by call their land phones.. Welcome to matrix.. myass | 4 |
It's so in your face that it's totally ridiculous. For a pretentious movie, trying to be all so authentic, cool and artsy, it is laughable that Tarantino injects his personal fetishes in almost every shot and in every film he touches. | 2 |
A show that can entertain and build a truly solid plot at the same time nowadays is to be commended. With so much TV out there it seems like our odds of getting utter poop is higher. But every so often we get one that has what it takes to stand above the rest and compete with the elite. Daredevil is one of those shows. The plot development from seasons one and two that have now weighed heavily on season three is masterful. And staying true to the comics never hurts ;) I appreciate the attention that has been given to the story and the effort the actors have putt in to bring it to life. Long story short...I am a fan! | 9 |
I'm a huge fan of the fantasy genre and this show delivered SO WELL. First off, the cast is so perfect, in all ways possible. Such awesome acting and expressions and the way they're so into their characters - ughhh. (Special shoutout to Henry Cavill's extra super deep voice <3) The only reason why I'm giving it 9 out of 10 is because the dialogue was lacking in a few places - it could've been better. A lot of people were complaining about the confusing timeline as well but I managed just fine, I actually felt that the way the three timelines merged into the present was really cool :) | 9 |

The cinematography is great, and the special effects are great! The show looks great BUT, there is a HUGE BUT 1. Script is total nonsense and extremely cheap. Many events and actions make ZERO sense. This totally ruins the whole experience.
2. The act of the main characters is bad and actors are not fit for their roles. The king looks like a tramp. Young princess doesn't look or act like a princess either. Her older version is a bit better, still not fit for that role.
3. Director should have seen all that nonsense and fixed it.
Overall it's like someone aquired the Game of thrones crew, hired poor actors and asked his cousin to write some nonsense script and created a total junk with great effects and scenes.
Really disappointing. I don't understand the high ratings - this is like soap opera - nothing in it makes any sense. | 1 |
It is hard to believe that makers of such a magnificient movie as Avatar come out with a sequel which is such a drab and a disaster.
Unlike the first one, which contains amazing unravelling of an innovative concept and the unfolding of the story to go with, Avatar 2 contains nothing new. The theme is simply the lineage of the original villain trying to take revenge on the hero and the hero fighting it out and suffers some losses in the process. Theme for a very ordinary Masala movie with nothing innovative.
The last 45 minutes is a torture to watch as they have dragged it on and on and on and on. The hero's side keep killing the villains who are about dozen and odd, but the villain's side people keep surfacing again and again to attack hero's side. There is no sense for numbers and the story simply doesn't progress in the last 45 minutes with meaningless fights repeated on and on. | 2 |
Employed professional actors. Empty spaces. Howling wind. Too bad I didn't pick a better movie to review, I would have more to say. What's with Mickey Rourke, why is he in the movie? I've seen good Mickey Rourke movies, I've seen great Mickey Rourke movies, but also, I've seen this movie. Sometimes I forget what the plot is to Iron Man 2, just seems really vague, like there was a NASCAR thing at one point and some guy has I guess electric whips. Later, I remember the plot of Iron Man 2, some guy is mad at him, right? Then he's gotta do something to stop the guy? Does the guy who has the electric whips, like is he a good guy or a bad guy? | 3 |
I don't mean to be unkind,..... however this movie missed the mark for me. I've been watching whodunits from Charlie Chan to the Thin Man to etc etc. This movie in my opinion was just awful, just awful it was slow, the story was slow you kept hoping that something is going to happen and finally at the very, very end..... it did. but it took forever to get there. I'm sorry I do not recommend this movie wait until it comes out a year from now and rent it for 2.99 do not rent it for fifteen bucks it's not worth it. This movie made the actors a great deal but I think the movie goers were left flat. I'll sum it up in one word.... boring | 1 |
Steve Matin is great! Martin Short is rocking it!!! Love it!! Feels good!! If you want to make it great, replace Gomez. Sadly she has no personality :( you can not mix blame with lively HUGE personalities. Sorry but Its's a freight train moving along and Gomez is the mud that slows and drags it down. | 8 |
Drawn out, pointless, not entertaining, boring. Good acting but boy this was a waste of my time. | 5 |
The Series sometimes catched me, but it was too hard to trust in The Witcher as the story and the characters seems to me too arranged. There are no WOW situations. Its something that you can watch, while you do something else. Fastfood.
Lets say, this peace of series is worth watching if you like fantasy in a cheesy and boring way, with costumes that looks too clean for middle age, with settings that might be in a children's dream, with a storyline that's boring. The parallels to game of thrones are obvious. But no thrill, too flat. | 6 |
My wife and I enjoy this comedy a lot. If you are looking for something a little different and do not want to feel too tied down l, this is a great show. The laughs are great and the story is clever enough that it works. Josh Hutcherson is much better in the role as I thought he would be as well. | 8 |
Remember that scene where the boat sank? Or the other boat sank? Or the the one? Or the other one? Thank God, a director who uses practical effects! Too bad I didn't know any of the characters on the boats, nor was Nolan's ADHD plagued camera able to focus on a scene long enough for me to concentrate or care before another quick cutaway.
Also Kenneth Branagh staring at the sky with a horrified look upon his face. Powerful stuff the first time. Not so powerful the second time. Okay, why is he doing it a third time? A fourth time? Now this is getting comical.
I demand subtitles on all future Nolan movies. I could probably understand 20% of the dialogue, if that.
I'm pretty sure they're using Hans Zimmerman's score on the next season of 24. Maybe that'll save the show, or at least fool you again into thinking you're watching something epic and suspenseful.
I miss the guy who directed Memento, the Prestige, Batman Begins and the Dark Knight. Nolan's last movies may appeal to you die-hard fans, but his best work is in the past.
Before you dismiss me, ask yourself honestly if, when this movie is released on DVD, you're going to prefer watching this to the aforementioned Nolan films. | 6 |
