[strike]She was great on Hawkeye next to JRenner. She's no longer that kid from then but a woman 3 years down the line and no Renner... very much wondering how this series will end up to be.[/strike] Here's hoping it wont be another endless woke virus promotion.
EDIT1: I expected this series to be about Hawkeyes sidekick Kate. But its about the bad lieutenant Maya. My mistake.
Quite disappointing.
EDIT:2 So after having seen the first 2 episodes of season 1 (I doubt there will be a season 2), it's not as messed up woke as I was worried for it to become.
But..... maybe that would even have been better than this crap. The whole series just stinks.
I really wonder what the whole plan was with this season. It looks like they had some specific story in mind, recorded everything. Probably some scenes were not done yet during the whole writers and actors strikes
And then in post-editing someone totally re-wrote the story.
There are loads of flashbacks or supporting scenes that seem to be about native americans and their roots and customs as a sort of documentary, which in some ways is better developed than the main story itself.
Frankly I dont like the Maya character. Maya her endless frowning / angry face gets old quickly. She has only 1 possible expression on her face: angry. There is hardly anything else coming out of her.
I guess acting of being a deaf person who is angry about life is probably difficult to do antything else than this, but her whole attitude gets old fast. No matter who she has near her or whom she communicates with. Endless negativity and anger and violence.
I dont like several of the other characters either. Plus I find the way most of the native americans are being protraid borderline racist. All of them seem to be either stupid, over-weight(fat), or criminal or so stuck in the traditional ways that they are just plain silly.
And a lot of what we see just doesnt make sense.
You dont go driving a motorcycle hundred of kilometers/miles with a bullet still stuck in your chest.
I am considering rating this series on the same level as Iron Fist. Not sure if to be above or below. I guess below is impossible. So let's say its halve a step better than Iron First. Although the storyline of Iron Fist at least made sense (mostly). Hm.
Anyway. It's poo. Dont bother. There's much better stuff out there than this s h i t.
How can it be Ocean's if Ocean is not there. Good lineup of actresses though, although its disappointing rihanna was casted also into this.
This was seriously depressing shit. Didn't like it.
Also major goof: Joel and Ellie walk across a path in the forest that's been treaded so often its free of vegetation.... Wait. What? It's it zombie-highway? After 10 years that would be overgrown. For sure.
The grass near the crashed plane looks also as if it was neatly cutted by a machine last week.
Discovery is the worst Star Trek so far. All of the over-the-top wannebe political correctness that governs our current day society has been stuck in just this one series. A woman in the lead role - fine with me. But why to give her a male name? So that we show that its fine to not be a woman or a man? And of course a gay relationship has to be part of the main story line. And a refuge that is fighting for his oppressed people. And a disturbed brother-sister relation. And augmentations to the body for - well, whatever reason. And body-shaming. And the challenges of not accepting your own body. And a relationship of a white woman with a alien husband, she went to live with him to his place, with a mixed DNA child not being accepted by society and then adopting another kid with....... oh my God, please, is it really all necessary to be stuck into the series in such an over the top way?? Season 2 at least does not have a lot of those fake Klingons anymore. That was the worst of all, even being untrue to the original Star Trek Klingons. I'm still watching the series, but I hope it will stop trying to be so extremely endless wannebe politically correct. At times its nauseating.
I absolutely loved the movie. The plot holes were almost negligable and as a whole it seemed to be.... realistic! This movie is Cast Away meets Gravity meets McGuyver.
the screwing about with each others cars is starting to be annoying. in this case it more or less destroyed the DB9.
sometimes it's funny, but more often than not its just juvenile.
anyway. one more episode to go after this I guess.
too bad, I'll miss the specials.
what a total b.s.
if a person gets desperate, like that b.s. scene, you will end up giving every tiny little bit of detail of what you do know and not just scream again and again "shes dead".
plus totally b.s that a professional like specialist/psycho would just go into the house without canvassing.
and........ the guy in his tracksuit just standing in the middle of the road, without moving, and psycho/specialist keeps missing like that, even with 2 guns? yeah right.
and she can reload a gun but he cant? yeah right.....
aside the woke b.s. the series was more or less intelligent up to this point, these set of scenes destroyed it all.
and a shootout in the middle of nowhere - suddenly the briliant piece of conversation "the police is near we need to go". huh? what? how do you know this? theres no police sirens or anything.
and yeah sure, suddenly David has a few tie-wraps in his back pocket to tie that person hands together. yeah I also always walk around with large tie-wraps :)
and add to all of that they get on a train with a bullet wound and the conclusion is "fcker got me, I didnt even feel it".
seriously what 15 y/o scenarist wrote this episode? or was it written during the writers strike by a random? lol.
I know Selena had been ill for a while, but omg what happened to her? Did she eat Bunny and then some? :o not healthy.
This is probably one of the most stupid movies I have ever seen........... and still it is captivating. Bill Murray is carrying this whole movie of course, but superb roles by Willem Dafoe and Cate Blanchett and Owen Wilson and Anjelica Hustun.......... only Jeff Goldblum his role is a bit underwhelming.
Anyway. For a stupid movie - it's pretty good.
It kept me glued to the screen, but with absolute disgust. I wanted to stop this restaurant-version of Alice in Borderlands. Seriously what a f'ed up story. Maybe I should rate this nightmare of a burger joint higher for the amazing acting performances, but... ugh. No. Just dont waste your time on this movie and just order a cheeseburger with fries.
The action in the movie is good, special effects are well done. But. The movie is so incredibly stupid....... plot is retarded, story line is nearly not present, and supersupersuper hero Batman is of course much stronger than any other DC hero. Cyborg perhaps makes even less sense, other then being the woke addition having no other function then just that. Add to that, Ezra Miller as The Flash is perhaps even more annoying then the guy in the series...... so yeah. Great movie. Perhaps good as background noise while doing something else. I gave it 6 out of 10 for the action sequences, but the movie by itself is perhaps a 4 out of 10 max.
Season 1 was kind of fun. Stupid mostly, but at least Original. I had some doubts about which way it would go, but ok. Overal season 1 was enjoyable (enough).
Season 2 was just plain stupid. Hardly any 'haha' or even a grinn. I just find myself being annoyed with the utter stupiddity and lack of humor. Extremely disappointing. Season 2 also totally changed the premise, no longer Miracle Workers, but just 'retardedness on Earth'. Waste of time. Season 3 came and uhm. Yeah. Whatever. Seriously, who genuinely enjoyed this???
Somehow managed to get through 3 episodes. My gf summed it up to "it's asif we're just only watching other people work". It's not funny. No haha, not even a smile's worth. It's simply not funny. And it's also nothing near realistic as to how developers or testers work on any software product. How did this ever get a second season?! Apple obviously has too much money to throw around and a lack of creative master minds.
This series is refreshingly different from DC and Marvel shows. I stopped watching immediately - at first- after the scène where the girlfriend gets obliterated. But gave it a second chance later, while watching alone. It's too much gore to be girlfriend-approved material.
I enjoyed the firs episode a lot, felt like a 'totally different' type of superhero series. Potentially as good as Deadpool.... that feeling only lasted that first episode and a little bit into episode 2. After that it turned crap. The lack of visible emotions on the robot and the bandage man dont help, but it all just feels so fake and ... just uninteresting. I do not care for the main characters at all, I dont feel their 'pain' so to say.
Only the girl with all the personalities is an interesting character and seems also a good actor.
I struggled through the next 5 episodes, fast forwarded episode 7 and 8 and... now I deleted the rest. I'm out.
I've always been a huge fan of the Dune universe. I've played the original Dune game on the pc, read the Frank Herbert books (all of them - not sure if I read the books first and then played the game or vice versa) and of course also - mother of all RTS games - Dune 2 and later Dune 2000.
Most of the movies and productions in this 'franchise' have been a bit disappointing so far; I did enjoy however the 2 low budget TV movies "Frank Herbert's Dune" (2000) and "Frank Herbert's Children of Dune" (2003).
I hope the newly announced Dune for next year will be really the first true big motion picture which will do justice to Frank Herbert's creation
Really superb show. It has many elements from many shows I enjoy, but putting them all together in the mix it comes out totally unique. Closest resembling show might be Dark Matter; which is not a bad thing :)
If you love Arrow, then sure, watch this.... more of the same. Just with even worse acting.
It's a mix of Guardians of the Galaxy and Arrow. With Guardians of the Galaxy being the worst of all Marvel movies in my opinion.. and this isnt any better. Actually, it's far worse.
DC has never been my favorite, not even Batman or Superman.
Every time it's being confirmed again.
There are a few fun references in the series here and there (best one sofar being Wentworth Miller saying 'this is not my first prison break'), but where in The Flash it's often good for a laugh or two, here its mostly just disappointing.
The most annoying thing about the series is the continous "lessons" about how we all have to help each other, that we can do things better if we allow for others to help us and how we have to believe in ourselves and dont dwell in the past, but look into the future and blablalabla. Every.Single.Episode. Over and over again. And sooooo incredibly over the top.
The only positive thing about this series is Sarah (since Sarah > Laurel).
On the other hand, one of the most negatives from The Flash, being Martin Stein - who absolutely cant act - is also in this series.
And of course that hawk-goddess isnt much of an actress either, as we've seen already in the Arrow/Flash mashup. I really dont get it why the producers still got her onto this show after that dramatic acting performance. In this series she continues that sub-par acting performance. Just like Stein.
Is this really a comedy? If yes, then the humor is beyond me. I watched 3 episodes and I didnt smile even once. Feels more like a misplaced documentary of a silicon valley startup. Or something like that.
How can there be 7 votes giving it 36% now in 2016, when the movie is due in 2017???
It seemed like a movie for 12-14 y/o kids, if there wouldnt be so many bodies.
Everything was just retardly stupid about this movie. The plot, the milestones, basically everything that happened.....
A plane crashes, everyone aboard is dead after the crash, but the fuselage is still 100% intact, and people are still sitting on their desk-chairs inside of the plane........? Right.
Stupidity all around in this movie. I'd expect this movie was written on a Thursday night in the pub, while everyone was getting drunk, the initial idea was not bad, the start of the movie could have even become a decent action movie, but then everyone got drunk and the whole plot and storyline went downhill from there.
this is one of the most overrated movies I have ever seen. It's boring as h*ll. Even the sex is boring... tedious, too much talking about nothing (and the dialogues aren't all that super either), predictable, drugs and sex to be an end isntead of a means for the story to be told (and as I said, even the sex is boring). Even DiCaprio could not save this incredibly crap movie.
my God... episodes are getting worse and worse and worse.
Season 4 is really a total disappointment.
I hope they will make an end to the series soon, before it gets cancelled without a proper ending :(
Acting seems to be going downhill, even by the regulars in the cast, conversations are so predictable they hardly have to say anything anymore at all anyway and this whole Messiah crap is really getting to me (Frank Herbert, anyone?). Seems the creators are totally out of inspiration and have started copying random other series and movies and throwing it into a mixer and then hope for a proper story coming out of it. That is definitely a fail.... they really should have brought an end to this series at season 3, instead of dragging a great series on and on into oblivion.
season 1 and 2 were superb, now it's just stretching things thin :(
the first few episodes were extremely cheesy. after episode 3 I had doubts if I wanted to continue to bother with the other few or not.
1x05 is the only good episode in this series.
the biggest 'miss' in this series is that there is no proper pilot.
you just get thrown in there. no character build up, no red line in the series. just a number of stories or scripts based on a book line thats made into series....
too bad, there was some nice potential there, but it's really not surprising it got cancelled
I wonder whats going to happen to this movie now Paul Walker died...
i cant decide on my rating to give it a 6 or a 7. Mark Rylance carrying this all the way. Without him this would have been perhaps at max a 5 out of 10 or worse. In all honesty the movie is a bit boring and slow. But it's still captivating.
I'll stick with a 7 as it's still "good enough" entertainment.
Dreadfully bad acting. stupid conversations. the corniest supporting music that sounds like it was royalty free to keep budget low.
It seems most budget was spent on Don Johnson.
And speaking of budget..... Ruby Rose really needs to spent some money and take some acting lessons. And that Mercedes Varnado should go back to being a waitress or something. I think I havent seen a worse actress in a long while.
It's just popcorn entertainment. And with alcohol, a lot of alcohol. So you dont notice how weak the stories are. For example episode 1x02 where he break in, has obviously stolen items in his posession and then police arrives and arrests the bad guys. Uhhhh right. Reality will be that police arrests at the very least the burglar, and in doubt arrests everyone to take them to the police station and figure things out later. I see people referring to The Finder, I was thinking more about Pointman (1995), but I guess that shows my age mostly :)
Anyway. It's watchable. Just corny and not very intelligent.
Well... what to say about this. It's not bad. It's not superb. It has a bit of a Da Vinci's Demons - vibe to it. Not surprisingly also a Stars series, come to think of it.
The ending was just so predictable... I saw it coming somewhere in episode 2 already. The whole evil duke of norfolk personality made little sense to me and overal it was just.... well.... not so smart or special.
Anyway. I still enjoyed it enough, dont get me wrong. Just over-hyped.
I very much enjoyed the first few seasons. Great fun and almost like watching a behind the scenes of the Trump precidency screwing up everything possible to be screwed up. Then at some point in season 5 or 6 it all became just too much hate, really like watching the Trump administration.
Selina was at first a little bit of a narcissistic screw-up of a underdog that you sort-off still wanted to root for. Then she became more and more that c-word and non-stop treating everyone like garbage. Then it became too much. I just started to strongly disliking her, especially the way she was treating her daughter... the showrunners probably should have given her at least a little bit of humanity still... too bad they didnt. I believe that is what killed this series eventually. Season 6 was very weak.
On the plus side, at least season 7 brought us a proper and good closing of the series.
Poor Gary.
Amazing cast, superb acting.
