Great episode, but it didn't feel like Black Mirror. It's missing the sci-fi element, the dystopian topic, the futuristic technology aspect.
I do not usually comment, but is too great movie!, animation, story, feelings ...
When you’re rooting for the dinosaurs to eat most of the characters (especially Franklin) during the movie, something’s not quite right.
When you order a pepperoni pizza and they deliver a pepperoni pizza, do you complain they didn't serve you filet mignon? This film is the pepperoni pizza of action films. If you want an action film, this has got it. It's not especially new or revolutionary or poetic, but at least it's got action from beginning to end which is more than many other action films of late.
This is how DC's Movies should have been made. It's action sequences are insanely awesome. Amber Heard is drop dead gorgeous like a goddess in this movie. Jason Momoa is born to play Aquaman. Perfect castings. Don't miss this amazing movie guys.
Tom Hardy, a good actor, always puts on a good show and definitely the right casting choice because It works well. I thought the movie was decent with a good plot easy to follow and some good effects with plenty of action but with a slow start and didn't expect It to be full of humour. My only downer was that It was a little rushed, also I feel It would of been so much better If It was (R) rated.
The music, animation, story. Absolutely beautiful movie <3
Surprisingly overrated. It is worth watching once, but not worth a return visit. It is very predictable, right from the beginning.
It would have been better suited as a made for TV SYFY movie.
Possibly Shinkai's best work so far, and as a massive fan of both 5cm and Garden of Words I do not say that lightly. The animation is breathtaking as always but some scenes go beyond mere visual splendor and are just mesmerizing. The characters are so fun to be around and you'll find yourself rooting for them and hoping it all works out. I was slightly concerned when I saw the "boob fondling" scene in the trailer but even that becomes a genuinely charming gag throughout the movie, believe it or not!
As to be expected of Shinkai, the film also takes you on a roller coaster of emotional highs and lows and keeps you guessing how it will end until pretty much the last minute.
I cannot recommend this enough.
Okay so walking into the theater I wasn't exactly expecting much however wow I was blown away complete must see
I had no idea what to expect from this film and I actually really enjoyed it. Highly unique plot, loved all the alien creatures, spectacularly aesthetically pleasing visuals! Overall an enjoyable choice.
Oh hey, it's February the 2nd, let's re-watch this for the umpteenth time. :D
There was nothing enlightening here. I felt that the engineering from social, psychological, computational, and mathematical aspects were interesting and should have been explored more, since they essentially glossed over the misinformation campaigns running rampant on every social media platform the world over. Even if this doc would've focused on regulation, or the lack thereof, that would've been something, but they chose to not call any entities out, remain middle-of-the-road, and out of the fray. I think that this topic would've been much better served as a multi-part series that explored the various ramifications of social media, rather than 90 minutes of glossed over, big-picture fluff that didn't hit at the heart of any of the numerous implications caused by the inherent designs of social media platforms.
I will say, however, there were far better recommendations for how to combat this ever-present problem in the last few moments of the film, while the credits rolled. The director had the interviewees each list methods they utilize to prevent overexposure to the ills of social media to them and their families.
An unexpected science fiction tv show that brings out the adventure and comedy with a unique bunch of characters. I love Seth MacFarlane as the Captain with his own complications and personal issues which have plagued him. Love the characters and the way they were portrayed, and you can feel the comedic punches from MacFarlane already thrown into the mix.
The SciFi part is good, just enjoy the ride, I for one really enjoyed the first episode and seriously can't wait for more from The Orville.
DC has finally did it! Not only is Aquaman much better than any of the Marvel movies, it's an awesome movie on its own. The pace is good, music is good, humor is good, and visual is awesome! Wan did a great job displaying the beauty of the deep ocean.
It makes me feel like an unsophisticated swine but this was so incredibly boring. Took me 2 months to watch the first hour, maybe when I am old I'll be able to appreciate it.
The paradigm of material being cut from a book to fit into the run time of a movie doesn't really apply here because next to nothing from it happens in the film. It bares little resemblance to the book at all and is completely shallow for it. Conservatively I'd put it at 10% of the book translated to the screen in a recognisable form.
It should be "Inspired by" rather than "Based on" however I didn't find it that inspired at all. It's unbelievable to me that Cline himself handled the screenplay, at least in part. People that love the film will be thoroughly disappointed by the book, especially the PG-13 crowd the film brought in.
The Oasis itself was done an utter disservice by portraying it as basically just a game, it was so much more than that.
Disappointing.
I've seen several opinions, but I wanted to check it out myself. Personally I THOROUGHLY enjoyed!
I don't get these ratings. What did people expect when they went to this movie? I mean, come on, it even has "Hardcore" in its name... I've been a fan of Ilya's work for a while now, ever since I saw his Biting Elbows clips on YouTube, and I've funded this movie as soon as it hit Kickstarter, and then I bought tickets to the cinema too, and I don't regret a thing. My expectations - brainless run'n'gun, violence, blood, explosions, gore, loud music, with a good share of comedy - were fully met, and then some. Crank got by without a strong plot, why does Hardcore suddenly need one? Scene transitions made sense, why would you need anything else in a pure action film? 10/10, will watch it again, once I get my digital download.
It's not really a documentary. It's essentially a 90 minute OpEd piece telling you to go Vegan.
Don’t read the comments or reviews, just fuckin watch it. Not for the Evas, not for the fights or the quality of the animation, watch it for the best delirious poem around, This is not anime or entertainment whatsoever, this is pure art.
Ignore the reviews, this movie is actually pretty funny, I wouldn't go as far as saying it's better or worse than A Million Ways to Die in the West. The script is supposed to be stupid. We've seen much worse in the cinema's over the years. Enjoy or not, each to their own opinion. Myself, even though I'm not the biggest Adam Sandler fan, it actually works well, massive cast Steve Buscemi and Dan Aykroyd make an appearance as does would you believe Vanilla Ice. Just take it for what it is. Fun.
While I can understand, people enjoying this film or even holding it a personal favourite the accolades it's getting and being passed as movie of the year is laughable. It has a very nice theme and setting which makes for a pretty looking film but the story is so one note with fairly one dimensional boring characters (the antagonists are so unbelievable) with a fairly on the nose basic story. Ignoring that the logistics and execution of the whole thing seems ridiculous and lousy what with how unsecured and awfully maintained the lab is etc. It's a passable movie to me with no rewatchability
Worth watching overall, especially for fans of whodunits, despite the usual butchering of Poirot by Branagh who can’t even do a decent French accent. Fey is also terrible reciting her lines like a 5th grader rather than speaking them in a natural way. The rest of the actors do well.
The sets are good and quite lovely for the most part except for being overdone at times.
The plot is thick and unravels nicely which accounts for the decent grade.
I’m curious to see how much they deviated from Christie’s plot on which this is supposedly loosely based.
If Branagh had not so mercilessly slaughtered Orient Express and Nile I would have probably tolerated and liked this one better…
Way better than I was expecting. Go in blind if you can.
Didn't quite understand all the twists and turns, but I'm looking forward to a second viewing.
Robert Rodriguez's Matrix/Inception? I'm here for it!
IMO the best combination of action & humor ever made!
Amazing film all-around! To it's core it is a straight forward action movie with some bits of comedy. Gripping... and ground-breaking cinematography by Stefan Duscio. Amazing choreography as well, it felt very John Wick-ish!
Also Director and Writer, Leigh Whannell did a fantastic job!!(before this all he directed was Insidious Chapter 3 <Another favorite)!!!
Some-what cliffhanger ending...
Man THAT ending tho!!! Just knowing that Grey Trace is still inside his own body, but being controlled by a sentient robot bio-metric bullshit thing... in which I don't even know how that would work in reality. STEM is the real threat.... all HE wanted has to be like a human.
Logan Marshall-Green best performance ever!!! all-around great casting! plus Simon Maiden is the voice of STEM, awesome!!
This universe is ripe for more sequels and spin-offs, I would love to see!
100% fresh film here. If it gets a sequel I will see in a heart-beat!
