I hardly post reviews, but I had to trow in my thoughts. I'm just sum it up into pro's and cons. +venom it's self +interaction between eddy and venom -we get to see venom after 45 min -I was expecting Deadpool level of kill everyone mayhem. Venom kills no one (on screen) -forced love interest -story makes almost no sense -eddy Brock is not likable at all | 5 |
Quite simply, it was extended music video of a poorly thought out song, but it butchered so many good songs! So disjointed. Great eye candy, some great on set practical effects, and some shocking stock standard visual effects, Deadpool acting as Ryan Reynolds acting as deadpool, sigh.... an assault on the eyes and fentanyl to the brain. Meatheads will love it!! As a film, in 2020.... VHS is worth more blank, than this film is on tape. | 2 |
In a time where big Hollywood productions with incredibly banal characters and plots are dominating movie media, it is refreshing to watch a masterpiece such as Fargo. Everything about this movie is amazing, but what intrigued me the most was the dialog. I'm from a province in Canada that is located directly above North Dakota and am therefore familiar, and sometimes find myself using, the dialog style or accent that was used superbly in this film. Not only is the dialog amazing, but the performances of Bill Macey and Frances McDormand are two of the best I have ever seen. To truly appreciate the accuracy of the screenplay and performances in Fargo you should visit North Dakota or Western Canada someday. I'm sure you'll laugh if you happen to overhear the smalltalk (it's pretty darn cold eh). Besides the incredible originality and accuracy of the settings and characters, the Coen brothers create this plot that seems so out of place in this small quiet community of farmers and shop owners. And yet what makes it so intriguing is the fact that such evil and deceit could occur in such a harmless environment. I recommend that everybody see this movie and appreciate it for the many things (little and big) that it does so well. | 10 |
An overall ok show but most of the episodes are boring. Only 2 or 3 episodes are actually entertaining. | 6 |
I surely can't understand why this movie was so overrated and why it was nominated for the Oscars. I found it incredibly dull, too long and absolutely predictable. The soundtrack is also not worth as much attention as it has received when compared to other musicals. Just another movie. | 4 |
After the disaster Wandavision...this show came as a rescue. Awesome performance by all the cast especially Russell . Great action and great story. Also a great tribute to Capture America. | 9 |
Memento is in my opinion the best directed film of all time. Prestige I love. Interstellar, Inception, Dark Knights all very good movies.
So Dankirk. Let's take that patch right of and say: "Dankirk lacks deep characters and emotions. Dankirk also lacks interesting dialog (or even dialog all together).
On a technical perspective this movie is perfect. The musical score is 10/10 The camera work is 10/10 The acting is very good, but the actors really don't get an opportunity to shine.
Nolan managed to make spectacle scenes without Hollywood bs. The movie is tense and the tension doesn't feel forced, like in most modern Hollywood movies.
Definitely the movie is something different, especial for Nolan. I would say this is his take on a more minimalist approach to characters, which helps the tension and the technical aspect of the move, shine even more.
Nolan recently said he would never do superhero movies again, he obviously wants too try himself in different genres and ways of filming, and I can only salute that. Even though that means I will not get another Memento or Prestige so soon. | 7 |
Rich Variety of service, servent and maker. Brilliantly made inner struggle of some genuine aspires. | 8 |
I don't know if I was expected to know the places, characters and history but by e3 was completely lost. Too much going off. Will try again from the beginning. | 4 |
I enjoyed every minute of the movie. I would like to recommend this movie to everybody who would like to get a good laugh. I read in other user's comment that the story is available as a book. I am looking forward to read it as well.
Thank you very much for this movie experience! I will never forget the actors and the story. | 10 |
Action a-plenty, dazzling effects -- but basically no plot, terrible dialog, and totally botched half-hearted attempts at humor. The longest 2 hours I've experienced in ages. | 4 |
I was so excited for season 3 after how good seasons 1 & 2 were. Huge let down! It dragged on for 7 episodes and was a total let down. Could've been wrapped up in 2 episodes-if that. | 5 |
You could easily cut this in half just by removing all of the drawn out walking, looking, breathing. Everyone talks like they are reading from cue cards that are.... One... Word... at... a.... Time... The idea is fantastic, the execution is so (almost) unbearably drawn out; the whole thing needs to be watch at 1.5x .....or stoned. | 5 |
This movie seemed only to be for Harry Potter or fantastic beasts fans. I literally had no idea what was going on for half of it. It was ok if you haven't followed a story, but probably a lot better if you know what happened previous. The action was the only part that really interested me. | 5 |
Ten minutes in and I don't even know where to start. The acting is horrible, as well as the writing. I have never seen a character more contrived and unoriginal since I've been a fan of film and writing. There is zero subtly or depth to her character. Her only "personality traits" or that of a bitchy goth girl that has narcissistic personality disorder, except that she isn't interesting because of her god complex, only infuriating considering the uninspired character writing that went into this "smash hit." The praise that this show is receiving is very disappointing to witness as a writer myself, do better Netflix. | 1 |
Coppola had done it again!! Great movie, I especially liked the jump between the Al Pacino story and the De Niro story... A film that teach u an important lesson about how power, money and respect can destroy a whole family. De Niro does a wonderful job playing The young Godfather, and how he rose to fame and power.. excellent movie!!! 9.5/10 | 9 |
I do not understand why it has to be this dark and edgy for a comic book based movie. I also found the Joker's character to be a little overly dramatic....overly violent, and not humorous. Come on, why so serious? | 5 |
Given all the fluff about the movie, it was disappointing. It has its virtues but not enough to win any awards, It shows only a very small portion of the battle for Dunkirk and it doesn't always get it right. The battle for Dunkirk is seared in my memory. As a boy, I first heard of Dunkirk on the radio news but when I saw the newsreel footage and the photos in Life magazine, it became indelibly impressed in my memory. While a professional military and battle experienced officer stationed in Europe, I spent a weekend in Dunkirk and the surrounding countryside studying the battle.
If anyone wants to really learn about what happened at Dunkirk they should watch the PBS NOVA program "Great Escape at Dunkirk." In one hour, a viewer will learn far, far more about Dunkirk than depicted in the movie and have a much better understanding.
Unfortunately, the movies shortchanges the viewers by not taking a few minutes to provide the setting. Inaccurate.y, the film begins with the French and British defending against the German attack only a few hundred yards from the beach when in fact, the German lines were still 20KM from the beach on May 27 which is about when the film begins and a 1,000 KM from the beach when the British and French surrendered on June 4.
The story about the Spitfire crash landing on the beach is incorrect. To begin with, the pilot gliding his plane without fuel and shooting down a German bomber is nonsense. Then he crash lands his plane on the beach and burns the plane and surrenders to the Germans. In fact, a Spitfire did land on the beach but the pilot was not taken prisoner nor was the plane burned. In fact, it was eventually recovered long after the war and restored and it is flying today.
What was bothersome, is that the story starts out by focusing on a Britsih deserter and follows him through the film. That does not do justice to the real heroes of Dunkirk, the soldiers in the rear guard to fought valiantly to hold back the German advance until the rest of the Army escaped, and then surrendered and were put in German prison camps for the remainder of the war.
The ending doesn't tell the story. We find the British Admiral in charge of the evacuation saying he is staying for the French. In fact,123,000 French troops were evacuated. But the story is not clear when Commander Bolton at the end says "I'm staying. For the French." But most of the French had already been evacuated so what he probably was referring to over 26,000 French soldiers that were evacuated on the last day.
The story was fuzzy at times, even confusing. That was in part due to poor editing which switched back and forth and scenes often were not in chronological order. Often switching back and forth between night and day and back again. Some like that style but I found it annoying. At times the story was not told well. Apparently, the reason the story focused on the deserter is because the story of how he survived was unique. He survives a shipwreck in the movie the significance of that incident is not clear - until I saw the NOVA version.
A plus for the film was its realism. The scenes were real. The dialog was real. The acting was very good. It did not get maudlin. Nothing romantic. No gore and it could easily have been gory. It is the type of movie I don't mind children watching. But not it is not a history lesson. | 6 |
I don't know Tamil, yet watched with subtitles. Man, it's an edge of the seat movie. Many scenes were jaw dropping. Great direction, great background music. Actor Karthi was great. Even between the serious scenes, director has perfectly added emotional scenes. Girl's role was very cute.
And its a family movie. No adult scene.
Do Watch. | 10 |
Good acting by Crowe. Good glossy package by Howard.
Atrocious movie, because it captures the mind, falsely, as a documentary, and leaves out too much of the controversial and true facts: Nash's bisexuality, divorce, and spontaneous remission of his disorder, to name a few.
Oliver Stone would be proud of this commercially recreated biography. | 4 |
It's a shame that this movie won so many awards over much better movies like 1917. This movie was terrible. Filled with unlikeable characters doing horrible things to others. It actually made me angry that this movie got so much critical acclaim. Very disappointed. | 3 |
This remind me so much of game Clue, in the best way possible. I want to know what will happen next as what I expect never happens, which makes the story and writing brilliant, making me on the edge of my seat, awaiting the next episodes. | 10 |
Venom #1 at Box Office take nearly twice that of this 4th "version" of a "remake ". Venom's opening weekend take of $80 million Blows Away a competent Bradly Cooper version of yet another (4th remake) of "A Star Is Born." $42 mill. Next week, will either of these film blast past the Neil Armstrong story " First Man" ? Any fan of Lady GaGa is delusional if they think her performance in this film is even close than Margot Robbie in "Mary Queen of Scots", even Saoirse Ronan is superior & better than Stefani Germanotta. Best news yet !! Nicole Kidman will compete with the "Mary Queen of Scots " film actresses for the best Oscar, thank God, GaGa will gag and have no chance for acting this year :) | 2 |
Up till the end of this Movie, I was really asking myself what is the hype around this movie? Because serious, the guy is (a little) annoyingly a push over. And the girl is just mean. But the final part of the movie is so amazing. I might have been stupid and not seen it coming, but the way the narrative is structured, the writer made a big effort to have people not see it coming. The ending really made the movie so amazing and I think that is such a hard feat. But they did it. Watch this movie to the end. It make the whole thing amazing. Also thinking back the characters are also amazing. They add to the story so well. | 9 |
I liked the first half a little bit and i was hoping the second half will deliver , and nope it's like when you try to cook something nice you get everything ready and start cooking then it comes out bad and you throw it to the trash like this movie exactly 2 hours i will not get back ! | 3 |
Quite interesting and different in its execution, with a unconventional setting. Having a snowy setting in a murder mystery really added a layer of strangeness. The acting is great, Frances McDormand is cheery and a good female protagonist. Some of the effects look really convincing and very disturbing towards the end of the film. Also, the accents are my my favourite part. | 7 |
Twisted Metal is absolutely bananas but it works. It's one of the more entertaining new shows that I've seen this year. You can't really compare it to anything since there's never been anything quite like it. The series is based off a PlayStation game of the same name. It's about a quirky outsider (Anthony Mackie) who's offered a chance at a better life if he can deliver a mysterious package across a post apocalyptic world all the while by being chased by a bunch of different violent maniacs trying to stop him. He's helped from a badass car thief (Stephanie Beatriz) who is the perfect sidekick for him. | 8 |
I do not know where these inexperienced and tasteless people came from But i know they belong to the masses who do not value art.
This animation style is very clever Comic book lovers will definitely like it. Everything is quality and thanks to Marvel.
Please tasteless people to refrain from criticism and appreciate the work. Looking forward to the next episodes. | 1 |
There is little that is wrong with Season 2. But there is a lot of difference between the atmosphere and tone of the two seasons. In season 2 rose - tinted glasses of season 1 come off, and reality starts to intrude, at times rudely. Nothing wrong with it, if that is the kind of comedy - drama you want to see. What set the Season 1 apart for me was that it was the kind of fantasy rose - tinted comedy drama that makes one feel good and relaxes one's soul after a hard day. That the director managed to convey this on a rustic setting in rural India was all the more impressive. The director was also able to interplay the dichotomies of an urban reared man combating his new life in rural India. And interesting paradigm in today's scenario of work from home. And he made us laugh with and care for the characters at the same time. In Season 2 there is no more feel - good and relaxation factor. It is a solid comedy - drama series. It is good. However, Season 2 is couple of notches down Season 1 for me. My review has a personal bias but then I believe everyone's opinion counts so I am putting mine down for those who may feel the same way. | 8 |
I have never been a big fan of the Marvel films. I very much agreed with Scorsese's criticisms that the movies were empty vessels with minimal plots and high action sequences meant to appeal to the largest global audience possible in the least offensive packaging imaginable. Still, I could never deny that the Marvel films were well-made. They are exquisite, and you could always tell that, for as bland as they were story-wise, a lot of heart and soul went into making them. They were the best dollar-menu cheeseburger you could ever eat.
Marvel has stepped up its game with its new shows on Disney+. I adored WandaVision and am loving Loki even more. You can tell there are some new stylistic changes being implemented but the stories are much more engrossing, largely because they follow a "whodunit" model. In most Marvel films, there is a clear bad guy with clear objectives and you know where the movie is going from the first five minutes of the film. Loki's first big adventure, The Avengers (2012), is the perfect example of that. But these new shows keep a layer of intrigue over the whole thing. WandaVision did not reveal who the big-bad was until the last episode, and even then the big-bad was not even a main character. That's what made it interesting. Loki is following suit. For better or worse, I am hooked. | 1 |
So I first watched this series when I was like 10 years old. I'm 20 now and since then I've watched it 8 or 9 times and each time I enjoy it more and more. The story line is amazing, the jokes are funny, the character arcs (particularly Zuko's) are so phenomenal. Kids show? Yes, but if you still need convincing that it's phenomenal, my 50 year old parents claim it as their favorite television program of all time. | 10 |
Though I love the 2 actors but it's just a movie to pass time | 3 |
Very mediocre show. Don't understand the high reviews on this one. | 6 |
Michael Bay, Ryan Reynolds, Melanie Laurent just to name a few, surely are much better than this mindless, CGI wreck of an incomprehensible so-called action movie. What a waste of good money and talents to create a CGI-laden movie with a farce of a script? You won't feel any hint of sympathy with any of the main cast even when they showcased a weak attempt to draw your emotions to Reynolds's character in saving some harmless poor kids from fire bombs. This movie can be trashed along with another casualty, Gemini Man. Don't waste your money buying this movie; just download it off a torrent site. | 4 |
Almost have up at the beginning of this film. It took some getting used to. The language (Which was made up) seemed to be pointless, and the thought of "Did they have lines to learn? How much did the script writter earn?" The cgi in the begining sucked. But improved as the film went on. It was ok. If you want to watch this for history accuracy , don't bother. The characters were wearing what appears to be parkas, and trousers? I'm not sure they were invented then, also skin colour.....we're people really that white?
Overall it was watchable, the acting was good, (the dog was very good!) The story was ok,if you take it as that, a story. | 4 |
I shook my head in disbelief and disappointment while groaning thru the last 30 minutes
.should have walked out on it
70% of the movie is spent with the characters trying to explain, and then re-explain the "overly far-fetched" parameters and boundaries of the plot TO EACH OTHER! - I am pretty sure the actors couldn't keep pace with what was happening. I bet there are equally like-minded scripts circulating at this very moment thru mental hospitals across the country.
The makers of this film expect you to buy into an awful lot (and that's just within the first 3 minutes) - leading you around and around not knowing if you can even believe anything that happened only moments before
and then, you get the nice overly used "OR IS IT??????" totally smarmy and puzzling ending!!! (I saw that turd coming a mile away too)
I guarantee you this
an evening rental of the movie and you will not be able to stay awake
far too many changes in direction, each one more annoying than the previous and yet still somewhat predictable.
I'll sum it up like this and see if you are still interested
..
"It's a dream within a dream, within a dream, within a dream (that's right
4 annoying levels sleep) and possibly
. Within yet another dream when it finally ends. COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
.N O T ! ! ! ! ! ! !
I say, "If you must go
bring something to throw at the screen
NO STARS
.EVER. This film solidly establishes the new "basement" in film making " | 1 |
Well, if you are in the mood for a hollow "feel good movie" this will fit the bill. But if you are looking for substance, or a film that makes you think, this film will leave you knowing you can never get the time back you just spent watching this movie. The soundtrack probably causes movie-goers to connect to the film more than the flimsy plot.
At the time this film was released, Hanks was perhaps the most sought after leading man. In some ways, it is as though the studios were on a quest to turn him into his generation's Jimmy Stewart. Hanks is a solid actor, and has acted in many excellent roles, but this is not one of them. But this film certainly helped launch the "Bubba Gump Shrimp Company Restaurant" found at tourist traps all across the United States. In many ways, that is this film's legacy - made for theater tourist looking for a vacation for the mind. | 3 |
I saw Captain America and i've got to say that this was a really good movie, not the best comic book movie ever but a very good. What i like best on this movie was of course Spiderman (he was the main reason that i saw this movie) and i was really curious and very impressed about Black Panther. I'm not very familiar about this character, don't know his origin and basically don't know anything but he was a very interesting character who plays a very important role in this story.
I believe that almost everyone know the storyline so i'm not going to say anything about the movie or going to spoil it for the others but some facts. At first and maybe it was only me but i was really disappointed about spider-man's costume, maybe they are going to going to get it much better on Spiderman: Homecoming but at this point on this movie i didn't like it. And second thing about this movie and mostly for the 'fans', please guys don't compare it with BvS movie, Civil War was a very good movie with lot of action and drama and good humor and Russo's tied up the Winter Soldier and Age of Ultron really good on this movie and this gives us the view that Marvel has a plan and develop their characters movie by movie than BvS which was the just the 2nd movie of the DCU. So guys just don't compare it.
Now my score for this great movie is 9/10. I really enjoy it, it's a MUST SEE movie and i believe that the ticket price is well spend and no one going to regret it. | 8 |
A film of this genre is highly dependent on the third act. This film promised so much, with a very intriguing set-up and clever turning point. Then, the nonsense of the final 20 minutes brings the whole thing literally crashing down. I was more than satisfied with the performances and enjoyed the lavish setting ; it just simply collapsed with a very unsatisfying conclusion. As I've said the conclusion in the 'Whodunnit' genre is fairly crucial. So much detail appeared to be well set-up to provide a satisfying climax, that the actual ending actually annoyed me. To be honest I'm fairly baffled by some of the positive reviews. 'Knives Out' was excellent. This isn't. | 4 |
As strange as they are this show was the only netflix show I watched in my life, it's a great show indeed and I couldn't recommend it enough, waiting for next season | 9 |
This movie definitely sucks, no one was giving any effort. So where did the money go?? Nolans movies are chock full of occult and christian and jewish mystic imagery. Tenet, his next movie as im writing this, is obviously a reference to the sator magic square.things being the same forward as backward. He obviously has a deep understanding of these concepts, which makes me think the money was given to a secret organization to keep them rolling using nolan as the vehicle. His next movie will be good, this was just a ludicrous cash grab. | 5 |
I was really excited for this season, given how good the last one was. This one had good action and humor. The many exploding/smashed heads throughout were entertaining. The acting was overall quite excellent.
They lost me when the the episodes started increasingly cramming down your throat the ideology of CNN and MSNBC (conservatives = evil racists). An example is the writers taking an idea like having a secure border and tying it in with nazism. Moronic, false narratives clearly coming from writers with their own political agenda to spout. Not what I'm interested in when it comes to entertainment from film or television.
As much as I was into the season, it got to the point at about episode 6 where I just couldn't finish the series. Season 3 definitely won't be happening for me. | 4 |
Season 1 - 9/10 Season 2 - 8/10 Season 3 - 4/10 Season 4 - 2/10
This series has horribly gone downhill. They should have stopped at Season 1 or 2, but they have just added characters and uninspiring story line just to make more money.
They started with brilliant concept and a topic which has good social value but now its nothing more than any other drama. Even the main character like Jensen Clay is really really irritating to see in last 2 seasons.
I hope they do not make Season 5. And anyone who has not seen this series please see only 1st two seasons and avoid wasting time. | 5 |
This movie is a lot of things, and to cover them all here would spoil the viewing experience, but I think this film as amazing in so many ways. It's hilarious and heartfelt, dramatic and beautiful, idiotic and pure genius.
The performances are worth the entrance fee alone, when it comes to the story go along for the ride, but you can never be comfortable as this takes a lot of strange turns.
The soundtrack is great fun and integral to the movie, the set design and cinematography is genius at times. It's also a very moving story about questioning your identity and the world you live in, and your place in it. It's also just a funny movie about dolls.
This film has made a massive cultural impact for deserved reasons and I highly recommend anyone who loves film to check it out. | 10 |
BB or Bhuvan bam has done something beyond words. I still don't believe that it was him playing all 10 characters without notice. After watching the show you'll have a big smile on your face and good vibes in mind. This show addresses middle class family and their problems in a very unique way, and performance of BB is just mind blowing in all way. It's very well produced, written, planned, executed and edited. Dialogues are very pleasant. But if you don't know about Bhuvan's YouTube channel and his work you probably will feel it off sometimes. Sweet and beautiful. | 8 |
NB: I have only watched Series 2, but I don't think I should be obliged to watch everything, which I don't intend doing, before posting a bad review.
The idea of updating the Holmes stories to the 21st century is clever, but it is only worth doing if you get more from the update than you lose. Updating the techology is easy, but there is so much more to the original Holmes stories than gas lamps and hansom cabs. The original Holmes stories were deeply embedded in the intellectual environment of the 19th century, referring to Carlyle or Wynwoode Reade or Jean-Paul or Wagner (to mention just a few examples) far more than other detective stories of the time. Although in the very first pages Conan Doyle seems to have made Holmes a thinking machine like the machine played by Cumberbatch, he rapidly changed this into a much broader, sometimes fallible and human character. Cumberbatch's Sherlock is a pure thinking machine, as if Google were to program a detective bot.
It's typical of this that, at least in Series 2, Cumberbatch's Holmes is unable to act his way out of a paper bag. The original Scandal in Bohemia includes two scenes where Holmes is able to convincingly portray other characters, in a "Scandal in Belgravia", Sherlock attempts one impersonation and is made in five seconds. Sherlock lacks the ability to empathise with others and so cannot act, unlike the original.
In fact, the 19th century fictional detective "Sherlock" most reminds me of is not Holmes, it is Austin Freeman's Dr Thorndyke, who featured in a series of (rather boring) detective stories high on analytical reasoning but lacking all of the other features which made Conan Doyle's stories interesting.
On top of that, the plots are ludicrous. In "The Reichenbach Falls" Sherlock assumes on very little evidence the existence of a simple computer code sufficient to break into all computer security systems. This is pure hokum, worthy of the best 1950s B Movies. (Remember the one about the atomic radiation which caused house-flies to grow as big as elephants? That kind of thing.) Steve Moffat can get away with this kind of thing when he writes episodes for Dr Who, Whovians don't have a problem with Atlantis being destroyed several times over in different ways, or London being invaded by aliens for no particular reason several times a year. But Conan Doyle tried to make his plots, if not plausible, at least appear plausible. The original Holmes was no superman, but based on a lecturer Conan Doyle knew at medical school.
My favorite Holmes: Clive Merrison in the BBC radio series. Against him Cumberbatch is just a caricature. | 5 |
Your time is more valuable, watch something else. Your time is more valuable, watch something else. Your time is more valuable, watch something else. Your time is more valuable, watch something else. | 4 |
I remember how disappointed I was when I watched the first season of the series. The appearance of the characters, their outfits and behavior did not match. The events had nothing to do with the book. I looked at Yennefer and couldn't believe that this typical American "Karen" was Yenn..." I made it through the second season, but it was like someone mocking my intelligence. It's a series without sense and logic. (events and characters' behavior are not logical) The series has (nothing) to do with the book. Those who think this is an adaptation of the book are wrong. The series makes no sense... The events, the appearance of the characters and their behavior have nothing to do with the book. People from Netflix said in interviews that the game is based on the book (either they are lying, or the book was translated tragically, or they think that the people watching it are idiots). The game The Witcher 3 is closer to the book, like 90%.
In Poland, a series was created which was actually an adaptation of the book. Unfortunately, it is not in English, but the appearance of the characters, events, costumes... Everything is correct. | 1 |
Well All i can Say WOW from the Beginning till the END!

No one wants to be entertained by a movie you have to read. Stupid idea! Quit making movies to stroke your ego. I love the premise of the movie but don't ruin the experience by making me read it. If I want to read I will read a book. | 1 |
This seems to happen a lot - I'll look for a movie, see that it has a good rating, then scan the first several (in this case 5) pages of reviews and see overwhelmingly bad ratings. This leads me to wonder whether people are getting paid for writing good reviews for a movie they may not have even seen. So I saw the 8.2 average for The Martian and thought it'd be worth a watch. Well, it was worth a watch, but only if you suspend disbelief, like, MAJORLY. I'm no rocket scientist but when someone says there was an explosion because he EXHALED too much OXYGEN..and that's just the tip of the iceberg. I'd heard that it was a sci-fi comedy of sorts so was somewhat prepared for Matt Damon's numerous one-liners, but I was really disappointed by the lack of character development not only in his character but in all of them. And Kristin Wiig? Why?? She was SO out of place, as was Jeff Daniels.
Anyway, no spoilers here, just a general 'meh' about the movie's numerous plot holes, its lack of tension due to no empathy created for the characters, and for its completely predictable and anticlimactic (and unrealistic) resolution. | 5 |
This movie is a romantic comedy that tries to pass itself off as a hardcore comedy like Horrible Bosses and The Hangover. We've seen this story before its like Freaky Friday dealing with adult themes such as failing marriages, getting older with no ambition. Reynolds' character is supposed to be a lovable loser but I just think he's an idiot in the movie. The only thing hardcore about this movie is the language as potty mouths are rampant especially with Ryan Reynolds' character. The movie has its moments but gets really sappy and depressing at times. This movies is a rental at best. Save your money and wait until it hits DVD and Blu-ray. | 4 |
Nonsensical dialogue with a lot of unnecessary profanity and annoying soundtrack that did not add to the viewing experience. I did manage to get through the movie and was overjoyed when it finally finished, although the ending sucked. On a positive note, Sandler was convincing in the role, certainly a departure from SNL and past comedy roles. | 2 |
Tip top mercenary (Hemsworth) is hired to save a young boy who is being hunted by seemingly every good guy and bad guy in India, lead of course by a deeply unpleasant bad guy.
Whilst this isn't wholly original - very Rambo, it is well conceived with top of the range action sequences and astonishingly strong star quality oozing from Hemsworth. Nicely ambiguous ending, although I found the scene with David Harbour an unnecessary distraction. | 6 |
As a marvel fan,this show is incredible. But for a person who strange to marvel characters.It is a little bit weird. That's all I could say right now. Let's wait for more. | 8 |
I went to this movie on a nice Saturday night after a good dinner! friends of mine recommended this movie due to the high rate on this IMDb website. But it was really one of the worst movies I have seen this year! this movie is just about D*ck & F*ck... it continues using these words up to the moment it is really annoying! Maybe the US citizens like movies like that, but an 8.2 is really overrated!
I like comedies, but they should be based on a little bit more! next to that they should have some unexpected scenes! this movie does not contain any of those! to predictable! and again the irritating F*ck jokes!
Sorry for the negative review, but it was a waste of the evening! It should never ever be compared to the classic American pie! | 5 |
Inception is a good scifi action movie with a complicated plot that, at times, doesn't seem to make much sense. The Acting was great, the characters were all likable and well portrayed. The look of the film was great, the sets, special effects, action, direction ... all top notch. The premise was also quite intriguing and original. The story focuses around a group of "dream invaders" who specialize in constructing dreams for people for the purpose of stealing or implanting information and ideas from them from within the dream. At times it's hard to tell when they're in a dream or in the real world and I admit, in the beginning, the film was a bit baffling. But the viewer who pays close attention is rewarded for his attentiveness when it starts to make more sense a quarter of the way through this film.
A lot of people have compared this movie to the Matrix because it explores the idea of the "real world" verses an artificially created "dream world". And in that respect they are very similar. But whereas The Matrix focused more on a conflict between man and machine, Inception focuses on the conflict between a man and his difficulty with letting go. The true strength of this film is in its characterization. Both the protagonist, Cobb, and the antagonist, Fischer, are very well written and portrayed characters that you feel genuine empathy for, especially towards the end. But where Inception surpasses The Matrix in terms of characterization, it falls short of the Matrix in its success at making a consistent plot.
In science fiction or fantasy, it is not required to remain consistent to the laws of science, but it is required to remain consistent to ones own constructed rules. This film constructs a set of rules for itself that, when held under scrutiny, don't make much sense. Indeed, the confusing narrative often breaks its own rules in order to suit the plot. This wouldn't be so much of a problem if not for the fact that much of the tension of the film revolves around the fact that the characters' lives are in danger due to these often contradicting rules.
It is no surprise that one of the biggest complaints heard from people walking out of this film was that it was too confusing. Some may argue that these viewers did not pay close enough attention to the film, and some may even be elitist enough to assume that they were simply not intelligent enough to follow the plot. While this may be the case, I try to reserve such judgments when I can. But it cannot be denied that much of the fault lies with the plot of the film itself.
Much of the mechanics of the dream world levels and architecture are poorly explained at times, and there are fundamental contradictions with some of the rules it lays out for us. Often times we're left wondering what exactly is at stake for our characters, and why we should care whether or not they succeed. The somewhat purposefully unclear ending may account for some of these inconsistencies and on repeated viewings the mechanics may make more sense. But the lack of tension during the more climactic scenes due to the ambiguous nature of what's at stake is still a major problem with this film.
These problems aside, it is a film worth seeing probably more than once. But I think the hype machine may have given this one a little more credit than it deserves. | 7 |
My gosh... WHY?... WHY????.... the first season was good, but the second season is terrible. Bad, BAD acting... nonsense... looks more like a soap opera. Too much drama and bad writing. | 2 |
Might just be the familiarity of they worlds now, but this was a much better opening episode. The acting was far stronger, the budget hasn't gone backwards so it looks fabulous and the story gave you enough in the first hour to know a lot of bloodshed, backstabbing, chaos and dragon action is coming our way. Was the best thing I'd seen Matt Smith do for a while, wiping the stain of Morbius away with a wry sneer. Can't wait for next week, more than pleased. | 8 |
The story at its core is a familiar one for horror fans, but in this case is so well executed, making it feel like a fresh new experience. Things like this always remind me of the dread I felt when watching Lord of the Flies for the first time when I was far too young to be watching it.
The main characters here were all endearing, believable and likable, already fixing the main flaw in most horror movies. You feel every feeling the character feels because they're relatable and you care. The horror aspects were all executed flawlessly, no cheap jumpscares or in-your-face moments, none of the familiar clichés, just nightmarish visions filling you with a more quiet dread, making you question everything, and the ending to the movie is just the final cherry on top, truly a terrifying vision, but you'll have to experience that for yourself. | 9 |
Everything is excellent and close to perfect. I understand and know that change is the only constant and we all have to be open to change but 'Capt' is just nah for me. To me that's just wrong, plain wrong. Can't replace 'Capt' like EVER!!! | 8 |
Horrible plot boring I can't believe this series is so bad very confusing jumping stories horrible | 1 |
Comedians Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele present a series of comedy skits. The topics covered are wide, from everyday domestic issues to President Obama (and his anger translator), to news events to the Superbowl. No matter what the topic, laughs abound.
An hilarious skit-comedy series. The scenarios covered are incredibly original and often reflect topical issues and events. Key and Peele are also not afraid to take a racial angle to a topic - quite edgy and progressive in that respect (and a reminder of an even funnier and edgier comedy show, Chappelle's Show).
Some of the skits are iconic, e.g. The teacher who mispronounces names, President Obama and his anger translator.
Brilliant. | 9 |
The idea of this show is pretty great, but sadly it's pretty badly produced. Characters tend to be dislikable and unrelatable due to their ever shifting moods and personalities. The story itself isn't all bad, but most of the "adventures" the group face feel both forced and unrealistic.
Great use of CGI and such though. Not worth to watch though. | 3 |
I'm a fan of the game and I love the characters they put in this first season. The acting and dialogue of some of the supporting cast can be hit and miss. The story arc was great but the dialogue they chose to flesh it out is spotty in places. Some of the scenes are unnecessarily drawn out, pacing and cinematography for scenes are sometimes poor.
Here is what I like - the fight choreography was great. Geralt, Yennefer, Tissaia, Istredd, Eist, Zigrin, Jaskier were well cast and put in great performances. The CGI and effects were convincing. Yennefer's origin story was inspired though she probably transitioned too quickly into a power hungry temptress in the series.
Hope other main characters like Vesemir will be well cast when he appears. Just like the game, I think the series will live and die off the interactions and interplay of characters with Geralt and Ciri. Geralt and Ciri are just the powerful driving forces - the supporting cast the humour and the charm. The monsters offer terror while the factions add intrigue.
Hope they get to work right away making a bigger and better season 2. | 8 |
In the beginning, when Selena came on the scene, her prophanity was ridiculous! Thankfully it got better. The show is fun. Well worth watching. Like all movies and shows, the mains get listed as exec producers for even more money! The experienced actors, I can easily see they have great input, but Selena? Please... She didn't ruin the show so I do recommend! | 9 |
Hi,
Avert your eyes if you don't want the plot, but not ending, spoiled (no pun intended).
First let me get a purely childish and slightly sexist remark out of my system - Bird Box, where I come from is a euphemism for a lady's private parts. I'm sorry, but I had to say that because I like a lady's private parts and have spent many o' time hidden under a blanket - much like the characters in this film... the difference being, I had much more fun under my blanket.
As others have said, this is much like A Quiet Place and is kind of an 'End of Days' drama wrapped up in a mystery (of sorts) that is never really solved. Sometimes that is a good thing, but dependent on execution, it can be a bad way of writing and/or filmmaking.
If you leave a trail of breadcrumbs for the audience to follow, that ends up leading to a bakery with no ingredients - well, you're going to have to do some re-tracing if you itching for some carbs.
The McGuffin in his is a fairly decent one to use, but is no different to many films that have come in Bird Box's stead - only, it gets a little confusing as to what they are actually running from, as the filmmakers probably assumed that it would be scarier if you didn't see it... (and artistic/symbolic)... enter Jaws twanging on a violin.
Bird Box is based on a novel, and while I haven't read the novel, one shouldn't have to. By that, I mean, I feel that there is some element or plot-point that is missing whereby the audience is given a snippet of information about what the protagonists are really dealing with.
This is an important factor in a film of this type, as otherwise, one will perceive that it was created off the cuff to serve the agenda or message of the writer. And this film, feels exactly like that.
It is set up well and Sandra Bullock is solid as ever - she gets a lot of stick for being wooden - I don't think you'll be surprised to know that whilst she has moments of high-jinx drama and some sturdy acting; she doesn't carry her role as the protagonist as well as say... I don't know... the great Sarah Paulson (who herself has a small part to play).
Act two focuses mostly on the characters and their interactions, but falls short of a few similar films that handle the moral dilemmas that rear their ugly heads when people share the same space during a tragedy/accident. It is here where John Malkovich attempts to steal the show as other characters dote around and pretty much appease each other. It is worth noting that Mr. Malkovich is terribly underused here and his significant skills in acting are cast aside for his ability to play a complete d***.
Act 3 comprises of the journey (which is interlaced throughout the first few acts) and goes on and on where we are slapped in the face with prescient dialogue from an earlier scene, that has special significance here. That being, love and hope conquers all.
The conclusion doesn't feel like a conclusion at all - it feels like a literal moment of 'I seeeeee' - in that... the kind of game that you would play with a child to pacify the little dribbler. It doesn't really resolve anything and it only serves to add to the agenda of the writer - who may or may not have a message, but by the end, I didn't really care... I just wanted to know what was going on and how this all happened.
Which brings me to this final point - this feels like a pilot to a serial; or at least, a desperately seeking serial.
I can't help that Netflix are releasing as much as they can - see what sticks - and look to create a serial from it in the future. It is a torrid strategy if this is true as a lot of these types of films feel as such.
So... in this modern age of big media - if you are short of time and don't want to watch a half-baked film; then do not watch this.
If you have a few hours to spare on a film that does little to challenge you - then give it a go, you might like it. | 5 |
Two things that MIGHT possibly make this movie not enjoyable for you are 1 . The hype - the movie does not really live up to the hype, however it's an enjoyable movie in so many ways. The acting is quite good.
2 . The negative reviews - We often do this thing of going on IMDB to check the reviews of movies and sometimes what that does is when you see one negative review, it changes your entire approach towards the movie. It's definitely something we can't help. Try and read the positive reviews and then watch the movie.
I can't gurantee you would like it but it is definitely worth giving it a try. | 7 |

How to rate a series that runs hot and cold, sometimes it's an 8/9, sometimes it's 3/4, ugh. Why can't the showrunners be consistent? There's a lot to like with this short 6 episode series, production values are good, actors are good, the scene music is decent, and the overall storyline is good. There are some genuinely tense moments, too. Neither good nor bad though is that it's a UK series so lots of accents and dialects that can be hard to square without subtitling. It's so funny that the men call boss women "mum", is that a maternal thing?! Americans will also need to hit wikipedia about the UK agencies and roles that are central. So, the first five eps I'd rate an 8, but the final episode was so obvious in its need to wrap up all the loose ends that it was just a horrible experience, so much poorer than the others, and it gets a 4. But the final episode of any series gets much more weight since that's largely what you walk away with, so it reduces the overall rating to a 5, not only because everything was rushed at the end but there was a fair amount of uncharacteristic implausibility that ruined its authenticity. If there is a second season, it'll need to be an entirely different plot with hopefully a better showrunner and a stronger commitment to authenticity and proper pacing to the end. | 5 |
I saw The Irishman at a small movie theater a few weeks before it went on Netflix. The place was packed. I guess like me, all these audience members could not wait to see the most recent film by the great director of, among other movies, Goodfellas and Casino. Well, it finally began, and we all watched. And watched. And watched. Finally, after two and a half (loooong) hours, the movie ended. An older couple in front of me then began a vain attempt to applaud, but they almost immediately stopped when it was clear that no one was going to join in. And then there was silence. And that silence continued as the audience members slowly got up and filed out of the theater. The feeling there was palpable. It was the feeling of disappointment. Pure disappointment. | 3 |
Alright this will be my first time commenting on a movie here at IMDb. The reason I joined was because it was just so irritating to see some of these awful movies receiving rave reviews. 10/10 for Spider-Man 2? I have a question: Have you ever seen a movie besides this one? Is it simply that you don't have any good movies to compare this to? Now on the whole I don't really like comic book movies. That's not to say I don't like any and it's definitely not to say that I don't like comics. So with that out of the way let's jump into the problems.
One thing a director or writer must be careful of is bad dialogue. Conversations that seem awkward or would never, under any circumstances (including hypothetical situations) occur. The conversations between May and Peter are so corny I had to force myself to continue watching. I know some of you might argue that it's a comic book movie so it's allowed to be corny. That doesn't necessarily mean anyone is going to like it. The first Spider Man was tolerable for me because it didn't have this problem.
The second problem: the characters. Peter Parker is portrayed as being reserved, shy, etc. Where did this idea come from? He's a superhero! He is allowed to be cocky, to make bad jokes about the villains, and to trust in his own abilities and knowledge. Let's move to Dr. Octopus. I can summarize this with a Chris Rock quote: "What happened to just being crazy?" Why is the doctor is some sort of a struggle with his mechanical arms throughout the movie? Why can't he just be a villain? The third: the annoying people of the city. Their fondness for our webbed hero is overplayed. Some of this part is simply ridiculous. Watch it you'll see what I mean.
In conclusion, please don't give this movie a good review. The fate of all movies which are actually good depends upon it. | 1 |
I am one of those people that was put of by the thought that this was a kid's drama, from the advertising you'd swear this was aimed at a 4 o'clock after school transmission time, the reality is far from that. It's quite intense drama, thoroughly absorbing, the kind of show you can't help but binge watch. As someone that grew up in the Eighties, I can appreciate the detail that's gone into the production, it's like they slipped back and filmed it live, it is incredibly well made. I utterly love the music, it is so fitting, takes me back to wonderful eighties shows. Quality in both season one and two, I like the build up and tension that is abundant in the first. It's like the Goonies meets The Quatermass Experiment. | 8 |
It has the look and feel of game of thrones, throwing all the names, sets, violence and sex at you that you know and love from the original. But without providing any substance, intriguing or complex characters. It's a pale imitation of (and shamelessly making every attempt to imitate) the original and the best storyline it can muster is some one dimensional squabbling over succession. Everyone wants the iron throne, nobody makes much of a secret of it. The current king is about as charismatic and interesting as the ulcer on his back we have to keep seeing. There's only so many cheap shocks you can throw at audiences and they've used them all by episode 3
Don't get me wrong there's enough game of thronesy action to keep you watching, with plenty of entertaining scenes such as the joust. But quality tv this is not. | 5 |
Several people have written reviews of this film that I agree with, so I'm not going to get into detail here. Let me just say: 1)The science was completely bone-headed. Just throwing the words "black hole" and "singularity" and "wormhole" into your script doesn't make for good science; 2)The convoluted plot has umpteen story lines, only one of which is satisfactorily resolved. (Maybe two, if you include the unnecessary Matt Damon nonsense, which could easily have been cut); 3)Really good actors get really stupid lines. McConaughey drawls his way through, Michael Caine is used to bad scripts and takes it in stride, the rest of the cast just looks confused; 4)And just what is this starship crew supposed to discover that will aid the dying Earth (no spoiler, you get this quest right away)? A livable planet where Earth's populace can go once they rediscover technology?; 5) Why, in the name of Time (a concept second only to gravity, or maybe idiocy, in this brightly-colored piece of trash), take three hours to deliver this gibberish when Roger Corman could have wrapped it up in 105 minutes? | 1 |
It starts really well. You get attached immediately, you start admiring the direction work they did, environment, characters, everything... But it doesn't last so long. When it goes over the different seasons, the series starts to get some weirder villians, the script, the series itself demands it to be so, but they're so weird that you don't understand how they can appear; and it's not improving when it comes to their abilities: they seem imposing, but stupid and good-for-nothing when fighting. | 7 |
Complete waste of time. Despite having actors with more potential, it was wasted in this Netflix original show. Nothing that would catch my eye and keep me interested in watching following episodes occurred in the very first episode. The same goes for the second one. I admit, special effects were quite good indeed, but I'm afraid that's one of the few things which you can consider positive about this show. One of the many negatives are the following ones: Long dialogues are meaningless. The whole plot seems slow-paced to me. And again, nothing caught my eye. In my view, books are much more better. So if you want to enjoy the story of Geralt of Rivia, I recommend reading the books, not watching this overrated so-called tv show. | 1 |

NON-SPOILERS REVIEW
This is absolutely the best movie in the MCU and maybe one of the greatest superhero movies I've seen, it was absolutely brilliant. Russo brothers did it again. The tone was serious but at the same time it had the jokes and the fun, the script was organized, they show you the character motivations and let you choose side and I have to say that this is was I was expecting in BvS, the tension built and the subplots were correctly approached and the fight scenes were SPECTACULAR, the airport scene was the best action scene I've seen in my life. The acting was brilliant, special mention to Elizabeth Olsen (Wanda Maximoff). The introductions to the new characters were good executed and they didn't feel forced at all, and talking about that I have to say: Spiderman was awesome in the 2 or 3 scenes he shows up, Black Panther was incredible and I can't wait to see his solo movie. I don't have anything to complain about this movie, perhaps the villain felt unnecessary but the rest of the movie was brilliant. Look, I'm a HUGE Batman fan and I wanted BvS to be a 10/10 but sadly it wasn't and some of the reasons were that they seemed forced to introduce new characters and the script had some flaws, and this is how it has to be executed, the script was brilliant because the simple fact that they show you correctly the characters motivations and build the conflict to let you choose which side do you agree more and the way that they introduce Spiderman and Black panther was intelligent and accord with the movie's development.
Everything said, if you love comic book characters go to see this movie, if you love action go to see this movie, if you love thrillers go to see this movie, if you love good movies go to see this movie!! | 10 |
I've rarely been so surprised by a series like this one. Entertainment, satire, social criticism and some fun, is full of surprisingly crude sayings and violence. A breath of fresh air in the world of superheroes. Wild and brutal. Definitely one of the best series in recent years. | 8 |
My Rating : 8/10
Sriram Raghavan. Quentin Tarantino. And now Vasan Bala. 'Monica O My Darling' takes inspiration from the Pulp-Fictions and Andhadhuns of the cinema world where non-linear storylines, dark humor, stylized violence and excessive profanity all make a delicious appearance - and let's not forget a super catchy background score to tie it all together brilliantly!
At crucial junctures, Bala allows divine intervention to kick in. At one point, Bala literally shows the mirror to Jayant in between a beautifully-crafted scene. The sprinkling of multiple dialects by different characters with peculiar surnames makes the storytelling all the more flavourful.
Monica... is not to be missed.

I watched one episode. I can't believe the likes of Martin and Short would pair themselves with a singer that can't act. Besides her nasally voice, it's hard to watch her trying to act. No thanks. | 4 |
Unlike so many others, I figured I wanted to see the whole season before giving it a rating/review. Yes, I've played the game. Yes, it was good. The story much more than the gameplay. And it's impossible to not compare the show and the game. I was a bit affraid in the start, since the director seemed to be "affraid" to do something new. It followed the game from A to Z both storywise and even images. Luckily, that changed with episode 3,when the show broke the strain. BUT in the end TLOU is based on an immersive game, and lacks just that. You feel you have seen it all before, and better. Bella Ramsey is better than expected as Ellie, but the fragile relationship with Pedro Pascals Joel just don't gel with me. Pascal is simply very onedimensional and boring. I was really hoping for someone with more range. Josh Brolin would have been perfect, but Pascal is the new bread and butter after his Boba Fett show. Other than that, the infected look cheap. Rubber masks and way to clean. The main horror in the show is humans, and it became boring very fast to see Joel and Ellie being hunted each episode. A big plus for the finale, were Joel turns real dark (you can even hear the music turn). BUT I never bought Joel and Ellie together. Unlike the game, Pascals Joel goes from "not giving a crap" to fullblown Rambo in one episode to rescue Ellie. This was NOT the best tv show ever, as some fanboys want you to believe. It's good, and very high production values (hell if I know whats CGI and whats not. It looks incredible). But the story isnt that immersive. | 7 |
Selena is really annoying ... boring brings nothing ... monotone much? I can't take it .. I'm trying to "rewatch it" to see if it was just my mood .. Selena Gomez has to be the most boring,monotone,brings nothing to this, actor I can recall ever .. if they replace her in the next season ... I will do backflips .. I think it will save it .. Selena brings nothing. Actually Selena ruins each scene she's in ... she needs voice lessons .... Voice coach please ! I want to love this but Selena brings nothing to the table makes her character one dimensional... if that I'm so sorry for her little fans here .. but shes bad ! I just watched To protect and serve ... I can't take it .. I want to slap her and ask her to move her face or eyes or make anything coming out of her mouth not monotone and just dead line delivery if even delivered. | 4 |
Daredevil has to be one of the best crime thrillers I've ever watched. It's like watching The Dark Knight trilogy without holding back on action or a violent character.
Just season 1 alone is something to write home about. Just the characters like Matt Murdoc being an attorney by day and vigilante by night is always a treat. And the villain, Wilson Fisk, is a really intricate villain who's plans are not easily seen like many other superhero villains out there. Or season 2 with the Punisher, he's an antihero that's seems antagonistic to Daredevil but he has his own agenda.
Great crime drama, even though it can be a bit repetitive at times but overall it's a good and deep plot that has your attention. | 9 |
Personally, I really enjoyed this show. I watched both seasons in full and I really hoping it's renewed for a third season. But I've seen so many negative reviews...I get that the logic in the show doesn't always make perfect sense but no show really ever gets that right so why bother dwelling on it? The acting is decent, the CGI is amazing and the storyline never gets old. I really hope whoever reads this agrees with me i'm not like the only person on here that actually liked it because season 2 ended on the biggest cliff hanger and i just want to know what happens! please don't get cancelled | 9 |
I wont spoil film plot in here as you may read from others. The thing that blows is Gal Gadot character was really bad at acting, this film is a superhero movie and Gal Gadot is experience on action. But she is really not good in acting with expression, words, etc. The movie is filled with much drama actually and it made everything worse. Whenever you cast Gal Gadot, it is best just to throw more action an so many little dialogue like fast and furious. Skip it if you are a Action Movie lover, and also skip it if you are a Drama Movie Lover. | 2 |
Brilliant!
My first film of 2023, which has started with a bang! I adore the original film from 2019 so was expecting big things from this sequel and I'm glad to note that it didn't disappoint - it's a cracker. I did, admittedly, predict the general gist of what was going to happen, though (in this case, minor) predictability doesn't always equel badness - like here, I was thoroughly entertained no matter what.
The cast from the first film are better, though those that star in this 2022 release are excellent. Daniel Craig is, of course, superb as Benoit Blanc once again, every single moment with him is terrific. Janelle Monáe also gives a fantastic performance, I predominantly know of her from music but with this, and 'Hidden Figures', she can certainly act too.
Kate Hudson, Dave Bautista and Edward Norton are the best of the others, though even the likes of Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr. And Madelyn Cline are good value as well. Like its predecessor, it's very astutely cast.
The film is put together in high quality fashion, Rian Johnson & Co. Did a great job - particularly with the framing of certain shots, as well as the music which is real neat. As you'd expect for a film of this sort, there are some nice little details spread across the well utilised run time. Like 'Knives Out', I know I'll be revisiting 'Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery' when possible.
It sounds like Johnson and Craig are up for making more of these, and to that I say bring it on! | 9 |
Bad, bad series. Awful, horrible, bored to death. Did I say is bad? It's very bad. Disney what did you do to Loki? This isn't Loki. I'm gonna pretend this didn't happen. | 1 |
Can I just say that the movie showed no emotions. I felt nothing when planes crashed or the ship sinking or soldiers being shot. The actors did not deliver any feelings that allow the audience to feel something,to sympathize. Its a world war movie and I felt nothing. | 1 |
Loki (2021 - Present)
When the bar for quality of the MCU TV shows is on the ground, it's easy to take one step over it, which is exactly what Loki did. The level of enjoyment of this series will come down to whether you truly care enough about the characters and the story or if you can handle all the tons of exposition that are dumped on us. Some say, "You have to read up to understand the complexity." To which I answer: "Am I taking a university course on a superhero TV show?" It's the creator's job to make it all crisp and clear but frankly, they couldn't craft an interesting enough storyline.
I understand that it's MCU and we aren't supposed to think too much but the topics in this series create way more questions than they provide answers for. This pretentious omnipotent TSA made everything that happened before in the MCU look insignificant. In other words, the writers used a nuclear bomb to blow up the lid of The Pandora's Box and from the looks of it, they wont be able to explain what was inside of it or how to close it at the end.
As a result, it will be difficult to enjoy the down-to-earth films like Winter Soldier because on the grand scale of things, it's all meaningless now. At this point, the MCU has entered the dangerous waters of the galactic/time level of events and they have to continue building up on it or otherwise, they wilk sink their mighty ship that has been heavily damaged.
While Hiddleston is terrific in his performance, Loki is known for his manipulation, scheming and betrayal which is what I wanted to see. Instead, once again we got your average run of the mill superhero story that had its moments but didn't make me feel any kind of emotions. He is a God with Divine abilities and a silver tongue but we never get to see him use those powers nor drop a nice phrase. I have to admit that it had many layers, Owen Wilson was fantastic and the music was spot on. Much like the TSA, the show is full of pretentious ambition which comes off as average due to inconsistencies and poor writing.

Started off with a bang!!!!! Then it's all down hill. So slow and boring episodes. For me each episode are just fillers, no excitement and even the storyline script is average. Don't get me wrong there are some moments/scenes in each episode that is good but it doesn't keep you riveting, it just send you to sleep. The backdrop scenes/landscape are amazing but thats it.
Ellie I'm not convinced, I can just bare to watch her antics and Katherine the leader, definitely I wasn't convinced of her role as the leader of the resistance of her softly voice.
Its a shame as the first episode and second looks so promising it fail to materialise. Walking dead is far superior to this. | 6 |
Superb just love it every scene is top quality mad love for the team | 9 |
We've seen this movie already and it shows. The scenario didn't age well. Cooper does an amazing job as a drunk talented musician but the character of Allie is so bland and one-sided, no nuance at all. Feels like the movie is a big Lady Gaga video clip to make her look good. Also the botox injections didn't help with the acting. | 3 |
Predictable boring almost self indulging.
Mediocre acting. Totally overrated. I expected much more but found it very disappointing. Almost an anti-Russia propaganda movie .
Many long flat sections in the movie. | 1 |
I watches this just because of Ryan Reynolds. The only positive thing I can say is that explosions and crashes look pretty realistic. But man, was this hard to watch... Poor story and so many cuts that if I got a nickle for every shot that was longer than 1 seconds, I would have 10 nickles. Tops. | 3 |
Lacking and forgettable. This film is based on a true and interesting story however it fails to deliver. The acting is done well but hurt by poorly written dialogue. The race scenes are hurt by below average CGI. I would recommend not watching this film and just saving your time. | 4 |
Here we have a film that could have easily gone wrong in so many directions but actually proved you can revive a dying franchise. It had the atmosphere and the cast to give new life to the cape and cowl.
However the film was flawed. I guess it varies from person to person as to what they want to get out of Batman, but this movie had everything I didn't want to see and not enough of what I love about the character.
I felt there were large portions of the movie, like when Bruce is gathering his resource to make all the bat stuff, that could have easily been a montage and had the same effect. It felt like the entire second act of the film could have easily been reduced to three 2 minute scenes and nothing would have been lost.
The first act of the movie and the last act are engaging and exciting. But the loss of momentum in the middle killed it for me. By then end I was trying to get back into the action but I just wasn't in the mood. I think there should have been more focus placed on the villains. The conflict seemed more like a weak device than a real story. I had other problems too (like I didn't much like the costume or the bat mobile and Katie Holmes and Rutger Hauer could easily been cut from the movie with little or no damage to the plot among other things), but most of them stemmed from my knowledge of the comic and its an adaptation so you have to let things slide.
Like I said before, the cast is great and the atmosphere is right. The movie had kinks, it wasn't perfect and I don't know that I would say I loved it. It does, however, have all the right ingredients for a superior sequel. So let's hope. | 6 |
