They never should have made this into a "universe".
Overly-complicated long fights that make no sense.
Keanu has 10 lines literally.
The only time he delivers lines with emotion is when he's speaking to Laurence Fishburne or - surprisingly - when he's talking in Russian.
Too many new characters that are there only to be killed / to be forgotten and basically nobody cares about them.
The villain is weak.
Too long, which equals too boring.
I am convinced that people just don't get what a good action movie is these days, not only because of the majority of the comments here, but also most people in my theatre liked it so much. Just because there are long complicated fight scenes, doesn't mean that this is a good action movie.
First John Wick film is a perfection. Second one was also very good. I will rewatch them and pretend that this was never a "universe".
Like many action films, the first half is too long and the second half is too short. If I wanted to see a film about 'family' and 'politics', I'd watch Mulan. Black Hawk Down or 13 Hours are better of the same.
Taron Egerton keeps getting better. I feel like we're in for a lifetime body of work that will rival the best.
Went in with zero expectations and The Fall Guy was a lot better then expected. And a totally unexpected plot twist, lots of action and the right amount of comedy thrown in. Totally enjoyable, and another brilliant part played by Ryan Gosling, he played the role perfectly with the right flavor, and Emily Blunt was the right person to play his costar in the movie
Honestly a totally fun movie and shouldn't be missed in the theaters due to the crazy and fun action scenes.
Smiled and laughed throughout the whole thing! It's nice to see a movie that feels genuine again :relaxed:
Stuntmen/women should get Oscars!
It's a very straight forward light-noir, but fun all the way through because the cast is great and the script is clever. It doesn't overwork itself trying to be anything more complicated than it needs to be and is filled with plenty of fun references and head nods. The perfect level of self-aware.
2 hours of comedy and entertaining action wrapped in a love letter to all the stuntmen
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is one part Inglorious Basterds, one part Italian Job, and two parts Operation Fortune, with maybe a dash of Bond. Although the film isn't as great as that cinematic cocktail may sound, it's enough for a good night at the movies.
The more I see of this season, the more I hope the show doesn't get renewed for 7th one.
Just end it. It lost its spark awhile ago.
Love the layers in this movie. Couldn't stop thinking about it after I left. I've seen it twice already. In fact, as I was leaving the theater, I saw myself going in and thought, "Man, he is going to love this!"
Not as solid as I hoped. It's confusing for sure, but they could have done so so much more with this concept and world. But they didn't. It has left us with a story that is interesting, yet unrelatable. Things move way too fast and I would have preferred a longer runtime because it is that intriguing. And while the ending is great, the way that Nolan tries to merge the two viewpoints isn't done well. Leaving me feeling like my dad when he watches Transformers (2007) and asks who is who.
It needed to be simplified a little more because everything else is amazing. The effects, the overarching story, the acting. The music, however, is terrible and overblown to give a sense of action when there isn't enough happening. The only part where it worked well was in the final fight, but even then it needed to be quieter.
The cinematography is good as always, but I feel it is lacking compared to Nolan's previous work.
When it comes to action and the draw to this movie, the reversal shots. They deliver, but they are too and far between. It gives us great scenes of reversal action, then one drawn-out segment at the end that doesn't feel rewarding as like I said before, it isn't merged well.
This movie may grow on me more after a second viewing, but it left me in a state that I don't wish to see it again any time soon. It is not fun enough to see again, it is not engaging enough to associate and learn from. Something that Nolan has done well at in the past is his ability to leave questions with the audience after they finish his films. Here, it just provides answers and left me unsatisfied in that regard.
7/10
I have almost no idea what happened, but I liked it. Might be my favourite James Bond film.
Incredibly hard to watch but equally as SUPERB of an episode of television. Jamie Lee Curtis gonna win an Emmy for this.
I think watching this episode is going to be a new holiday tradition. Better than most Christmas movies.
Umm… jesus motherfucking christ… that was equal parts INTENSE and AMAZING.
All one shot. Very well done. Dynamic, stressful and brilliant. The planning and rehearsing had to have been off the charts stellar.
Very intense Chef!! But enjoyed it a lot, very bingeable and some really fantastic scenes. Hope they make more.
One word: masterful. They've edited a very naturalistic sort of narrative in a way that's gripping, intense and full of details you just want to sink into.
You just don't see coming a plot so simple produced into such a piece of fine art. It's everything you ask for and more in both the technical and the emotional departments.
The depth of all characters, the cinematography, the balls of that episode 7. FX at its finest.
Comments here need to be at minimum 5 words, but there are only 3 that are needed:
holy shit, chef
No plot, wooden acting, practically no emotional impact (and I won't even get into those stupid Anakin cameos)... in short, boring as hell.
Get rid of Sabine (and of pretty much everyone other than Thrawn, Baylan and Shin), put it on double speed, add a plot that's not summarized in 1 sentence, and this show might get decent at some point. I don't carry much hope for that happening, though.
Disney somehow managed to remake the StarWars franchise into an after school special…
Boring. I have never been less invested in a main character. Ahsoka is a plank of wood.
Only redeeming quality is some visuals.
I haven't played the games, but for this series I'll give it a shot....
The performances at times I didn't like at all....
I loved the scenography, and the action scenes were good, although I would have liked to see more...
The plot (without having played the games), seems good to me and gives me the chance to continue, but I would like to expand it more...
The number of episodes, by duration are good, although there are some slow moments...
In general it is a good adaptation and I think I would watch other seasons, if they know how to carry the story well...
I would recommend it...
9/10
I'd like to see if Lucy makes Maximus' dick explode.
The only good thing in this movie was Jackie Chan! He was great! There were some beautiful locations, too. The rest, so bad! And no matter that it's a remake of the great movie named Karate Kid, naming this one Karate Kid when it's about kung fu, that's just stupid.
i dont like the kid, master jackie deserves better pupils :)
It’s a shame that such a beautiful and well done show is littered with such stupid comments about language. Seriously it’s not that big of a deal.
