These ladies are HILARIOUS! I really enjoyed watching this. I laughed out loud a whole bunch of times and really love the actors in these particular roles. I can already see several long-term quotable lines coming from it. Chris Hemsworth was also a riot.
While it's probably technically a remake, this movie has its own original plot and its own original characters. I'm glad for that. I loved the nods to the original without (always) hitting you over the head with it. Keep an eye out for some old friends.
Having said that, the movie does drag a bit around the 2/3 mark before kind of getting its mojo back for the finale. And make sure you stick around through the credits (which go by surprisingly quickly)!
There are going to be people who will hate this no matter what. But don't pre-judge this movie based on the trailer. Give it a chance and you may laugh as hard as I did.
I can see it over and over again! One of the best movies I ever seen.
this movie had a lot going against it before it even released, with people complaining about the lack of racial diversity and historical inaccuracy, which makes no sense considering its a fantasy movie set in a fictional version of Egypt. yes, its by no means an epic blockbuster, but its nowhere near as bad as some people are making it out to be. personally i thought it was good.
Thank you, Dean Winchester.
Thank you, Supernatural.
Obviously I also want to thank everyone else involved, specifically Jared Padalecki, the other half of the show. I'm not going to lie to you, I was nervous for all the wrong reasons before watching this. The past couple of seasons has not been anything like the show I once fell in love with, but when I joined the "family" 10 years ago, it was done. I would never abandon this show. It has been something so unique, so comforting, so familiar - such a safe space. Good or bad, I always knew I could come back here and meet the characters I loved more than anything.
Dean Winchester has changed my life an unmeasurable amount. I identify a lot with him, and is the character I have, undoubtedly, loved the most out of any and all fictional characters I've ever encountered.
Guess I should actually review this, then, huh?
First of all - MIRACLE :hearts:︎ I was so happy they kept her around. The first few minutes are so jam-packed with feel-good TV you just know shit's gonna hit the fan sooner rather than later. It's a monster-of-the-week type thing, a nest of vamps kidnapping kids.
Then the big fight happens, and Dean gets impaled on a rebar that goes through his back.
The speech that happens next is so painful to me I can barely breathe as I watch. The "stay with me", the "I love you so much, my baby brother," the "tell me it's okay," 'cause of course Dean will fight tooth and nail for his last breath until his little brother says he can let go. That Dean's job is done. He has protected his little brother, as he promised, and now he can rest.
Shit man, just yank my heart out, will you?
I've personally always wanted the brothers to die together or not at all in the finale. That doesn't happen. And surprisingly, I'm at peace with that.
Dean goes to Heaven, which is "nearly perfect". There's one puzzle piece missing, because Sam isn't there - but he will be. Time passes differently in Heaven, Bobby says (oh yeah, Bobby's back. For once I don't mind them bringing him back for the millionth time). Bobby asks Dean what he'll be doing now, to which Dean answers that he's gonna go for a drive, as he finally spots Baby. The speakers blasts Carry on My Wayward Son, and you thought you were done crying but nah.
We see Sam's life and Dean on the road, back and forth. Sam has a son now, named after Dean, and we see him raise him throughout the years, aging, going grey (the wig is atrocious but fine), while Dean is still driving down the same, long-stretching dirt roads, still as "young" as always, time seemingly standing still.
Then, as they move to a cover of CoMWS (which is beautiful by the way, my GOD), we see Sam die of old age in his home, surrounded by photos of Dean, their family... They cut to Dean, who's slowing the car down to park on a bridge, and as he gets out to look out over the river below, you can see him sense a presence, before he grins and goes "Hey Sammy" (that's my cue to cry again by the way). Sam responds with Dean's name, they hug, and that's that. It fades to black as they stand together on the bridge, looking out over the river.
Their final words in the show are each other's names. And if you remember from "Dark Side of the Moon" back in season 5, when Castiel says to Dean that he needs to follow the road in Heaven, which will lead him to Sam... The fact that they implemented that here as well, with Dean driving seemingly forever, until Sam dies and his trip ends as they reunite. It's just so achingly beautiful.
I know this review is a mess. I don't expect anyone to read it honestly. But this show has been my life for so long I felt like I owed them this.
We've had our ups and downs, dear show, but you'll always be home to me. Thank you.
Drawing from a near perfect body of work, Ratatouille is my favourite Pixar film.
Patton Oswalt, a self confessed lover of fine food, brings such credibility to Remy that I can't imagine his words passing another actors lips. With his every lament in the kitchen you can almost smell every ingredient and it never fails to make me salivate.
The great Peter O'Toole is masterful in his contempt and condescension as food critic Anton Ego, which makes the pay off all the more moving.
Director Brad Bird's (The Iron Giant, The Incredibles) vision of Paris is gorgeous and Michael Giacchino's Oscar nominated score brings it to life.
More physical with its comedy than other Pixar films, it is a testament to the skill of the animators as it is all key framed, not motion captured.
More than just an ode to kitchen artisans, Ratatouille is about seeing through convention and letting nothing stand in the way of your dreams.
Now excuse me, I must away to the kitchen, I feel a dish coming on.
Destiny is all.
Sad to see the show end but it was a great run.
Fantastic
A great end to the show, loved the feast hall scene at the end.
DESTINY IS ALL
Why can't people take things for face value? Absolutely awesome movie. Great special effects, predictable but satisfying story, and fun action scenes. Stop being so critical and enjoy the damn movie!
Watching this again 10 years later. Many things happened since, lots of tv shows came and went. Still this episode hold its place as one of the greatest season finale ever.
A fitting end, very enjoyable. Just like the tv series, same quality just in a movie, what’s not to like!
Final scene in the feast hall was a great end
I would really love to see Ratatouille 2
This movie is an unmissable gem https://youtu.be/NBdRQo-OaGg
Season 2 was a huge surprise for me. I liked season 1 and how we got to know the characters and the world which they live in. Season 2 is far less action-oriented and focus on bringing more dramatic weight to the story and characters. This is a development to the show which I absolutely love and I can't wait to see where this is going in season 3.
Definitely one of the most inspirational and well produced shows of it's time. It helped pave the way for the rest of science fiction. It's incredibly slowpaced but I'd suggest at least watching a few episodes!
Nice little movie with a bit of fun here and there. McBride was awesome
Includes the now-legendary comedy gem of Ted attempting to explain perspective to Dougal.
Simply brilliant.
Definitely campy, and the autotuned vocals aren't always on spot, but Jane Lynch adds just the right about of insane humor to this show. The plots are ridiculous and sometimes hard to care about, but it makes good background watching.
A classic TV comedy. Nothing spectacular, but a fun watch with an interesting premise and great one liners. Worth a mindless watch every once in a while.
What a weird way to end it.
I just started watching this and had to stop mid-episode because of the emotions it was invoking in me. I was 14 when this show premiered. It truly impacted me as a tv lover.
