Not a single positive comment about this episode. If you all don't enjoy it or think it's good, why do you bother watching?
Much better than last week's, thankfully (maybe due to the lack of Adira and Gray...). This one still suffered from some ropy dialogue in places but it kept getting better as the episode went one. The highlights for me were Wilson Cruz's scenes as we saw Dr Culber dealing with survivor's guilt; I just wish they'd paired him up with a less irritating actor than Anthony Rapp, who always looks constipated.
A very good episode.
The right to choose life or death,emotions run high.
What a finale I loved it
Everyone has been blaming and giving lower ratings to this show since the beginning, but my heart says "have a little faith" and yes, it's correct, this show is getting better. I can't wait for season 2 to come out.
I'm just gonna say that this is great. Not like any other alien invasion, and the cliffhanger just teases more to come.
Everything I wanted it to be and more. Perfectly cast and excellent soundtrack by Hans Zimmer. Epic Sci-Fi at its best.
When you watch a movie and wish that it went for another 2 hours - fantastic.
I really enjoyed that episode! There are so many interesting characters in this show and it's nice to see them grow, (re)connect, and change. This wasn an unexpected but welcomed surprise :)
Hugh is such a lovely person and great doctor.
I also like the new Michael Burnham that is still badass but also more empathic now.
Even got wet eyes at the end... :D
Please don't suck, please don't suck, please don't suck...
For me, the best Star Trek movie. The story is interesting and features some nice plot-twists. I especially like to see the younger versions of Kirk, Spock and so on and that they really let Vulcan be destroyed by the time-traveling Romulan ship.
Rating-wise minus 1 star for the time-traveling that plays a major part although we have seen it in a LOT of other Star Trek flicks and minus another star for the SFX that are sometimes clearly visibly as computer animation -> 8/10.
Much better than I thought it would be. The Rock and Ryan Reynolds surprisingly work well together, and Gal Gadot is just divine as always. It is a fair bet that there's going to be a sequel, the ending made sure of that.
Great movie, which gave me a couple of laughs and kept me entertained the whole time.
The cast has good chemistry and does a great job. Ryan Reynolds basically plays his funny and saracastic Deadpool/talkshow persona, which I personally really enjoy.
Would recommend and looking forward to the sequel :fingers_crossed_tone1:!
I don't know about anyone else, but despite the slow start, I'm enjoying this season. It's been more consistent than FTWD and TWD, perhaps because there are fewer characters to focus on. Sure, it's not without flaws (some glaring), but I think the story has FINALLY blossomed and is worth sticking around for. Bravo.
At this point I simply couldn't care less if it isn't exactly like the books, this show is setting a new standard for sci-fi and storytelling like The Expanse did a couple years ago or the Wachowski's did a few decades ago. Apple TV is winning the streaming war right now ( if we judge on quality )
It’s hard to predict the fate of a series based upon a single episode, but when you look at a series from more of a distance, considering all episodes aired to date in the aggregate, it becomes possible to draw some conclusions. Based on what we’ve seen so far, I predict this series will suffocate under its own weight sometime within the next 500 years.
Overall, funny but offensive in some ways that are important, in others just mean. I also find it frustrating certain things seem to get more public attention than others. But the comments in general about trans people come off as the "crazy racist uncle" trope of yesteryear who Chappelle himself would mock when they'd excuse themselves by parading their one black friend as if it was an excuse.
I won't even attempt to excuse his mean spirited jokes about the trans community. Whilst his friend may have loved them it's still the sort of thing that wounds people enough to drive them to what I hope he doesn't wish on anybody else.
Some jokes didn't land at all for me, the "antisemetic" joke for instance. I don't get what was funny or offensive about it, probably because I just simply don't get what he's referencing, neither did my Jewish husband. Either way it seemed odd and out of place among everything else. It just made no sense to me at all.
All in all, my viewing experience is probably very different to that of someone who is trans. So I can't and don't think anybody other than trans people should be saying whether it's transphobic/offensive or not.
I'm very conflicted about this as I love Chappelle and feel awful about what happened to his friend. But I know that if he were a white man making the same kinds of jokes about a black person I would be upset, too.
It has a promising plot but somehow it lacked substance, especially towards the end of the film. Somehow I was expecting a conclusion to the entire “monster” situation, but then it was left unattended.
Overall, I enjoyed watching the film though. Would I watch it again? No. Would I make my friends watch it? Possibly.
this was a horrible show.
sia should have listened. her reaction to the backlash of portraying an autistic character this way shows she is not in any way qualified to be writing a movie script about an autistic character. there was no reason to make maddie play this character, when she so clearly stated that she did not want to. a child anticipated the backlash of this movie and sia couldn't?
this is downright offensive for so many reasons and also showcases restraints and holds that are illegal in some states (because they have caused deaths.) the lack of research is astounding. this movie is gross.
I, too, am among those who thinks this film is rather below average. And I say this as a decade-long Eastwood fan. I will not enter into the discussion about the politics and morality of war and if the movie answers those questions. Only this, I don´t think this is an anti-war movie.
The problem I had after watching this was that I wasn´t sure what Eastwoods intensions were regarding Kyle. I didn´t know the first thing about him (I´m not American) but I feel I could have gotten the same picture about him reading on wikipedia. Although his fate in the end is tragic I don´t feel sorry for him. He choose his profession, he could have gotten out, he knew the risks. I feel sorry for his family - his wife and kids.
So what was the intension ? Did Eastwood wanted to show a movie about a great soldier ? About a man who sacrifices everything for the so-called greater good. Or should this be about the effects of PTSD ? Whatever it was the movie touches all of these points without really exploring anything in detail. In the end this movie did not touch me, it doesn´t made me want to know more about the man, it could have just as easily been a fictional character. That´s the imperssion it left on me.
Sure, sure, bring a dead body onto a life raft instead of supplies.
