This was really endearing, lots of cute moments.
In most other shows I'd find it ridiculous to have characters get married after knowing each other for only three days but everyone in TUA is just unhinged enough for something like this to work. And I'm always here for the "let's have a party before the world ends" trope.
I like that they finally gave new Ben some depth, took them long enough!
Reginald being nice (or at least pretending to) is totally weirding me out and I'm loving it.
Klaus is definetely carrying this season so far.
Everytime Allison spoke I could not help but roll my eyes. The adaucity to not even accept Viktor's apology which in no way she even deserved... ugh. Her emotions are very much justified, I don't blame her at all for grieving and being angry but after forcing herself on Luther and not even apologizing for it and then going on to murder Harlan in cold blood, I just cannot stand looking at her anymore. She's irredeemable.
oh my god you guys have no idea how gay the comic is. i really hope they dont leave it all behind
What is the point in these ships even having weapons systems? The star destroyer couldn't even shoot a super basic defenceless ship out of the sky! It has been utterly infuriating watching the action sequences in this show.
"I will do what I must" made me cringe. It was like bad fan fiction. The fight wasn't great, though it was definitely better than the fight back in episode 3 of the show.
Reva might just be the most pathetic force user of all time. How the hell did a couple of random farmers hold their own against her? Again, the action in this show has been consistently dreadful - just straight-up bad decisions by the writing team, and laughably poor choreography. Also, she literally just took a lightsaber to the gut hours ago and was left for dead, yet now she suddenly appears absolutely fine walking around on Tattoine? WHAT IS THIS SHOW?
Glad we got the Qui-Gon cameo at the end though.
A proper send-off for Daniel Craig, he did much for the franchise. One of the better Bond-films for sure, there's lots to like here. The acting is great, music fantastic and obviously the action is riveting. Even at 163 minutes, it does not drag - and even though I wanted more, the ending was perfect. It's exciting to discuss who will become the next Bond, but let's enjoy this ride first and let it sink in.
Eternals really changed the whole MCU. This is a new take on a whole new mcu film without the same old formula. And I kinda like how divisive and deep, dark they went for this. There's so much complexity in each character that I know people can identify with, it's everything the other mcu films could've been. Fuck rotten tomatoes.
just what? design and animation is better thn anything those big ass companies like Disney, WB, Dreamworks have been throwing at us for the past decade. what a treat!
This is not the Bob Odenkirk we've come to expect! While it's great to see him kick some ass, the film feels a bit odd. As with any hard-nosed action film, there's not much character development, but in this film it doesn't really work. Odenkirk is brilliant in Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul and even Fargo because of his character's complex moral code and overall character development. Too much, from almost all of the characters, goes unsaid here. But the whole film feels as if it's missing an extra half hour of backstory.
"Spectacular" "Amazing" Really? It was alright. It felt like a webisode (remember those?) than a pilot.
I don't like that they are turning a mercenary villain into a good guy just to make the series more digestible.
I also don't see it as a positive when a series is like another series. Take Better Call Saul, for example. It's very much its own thing.
First of all, its a pretty cool feeling knowing that you helped produce this film on indiegogo (or kickstarter, whichever one it was). I was impressed by how well made it was. It felt like a big budget movie.
Second, the story was great. A few things happened that I didn't expect to.
The only thing that I didn't like was the ending... It needed 5 more minutes to explain what the hell just happened. Connor said he's going to make things right. But nothing happened. He visits his mom's grave. Then what? He's back where he started, minus having a mom?
Did Garrett essentially replace Marcus with that deal?
Did Park not end up having powers? I definitely thought he was going to have powers.
So Nia got to visit her dad in prison. That's not really a happy ending for her, is it?
Maybe I missed something while I was watching...
Amazing series, had me laughing from the outset. Totally looking forward to the next one. Great range of characters, especially Nathan and Nora. Robbie Amell isnt just a pretty face but a pretty decent actor too.
Filoni and Favreau have done it folks in my world. Let me have the shows and the kids can have the new movies. Good compromise.
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".
One of the greatest openings in any sci-fi movie. Sadly it falls apart the longer into the movie you get. I give the opening a 9 and the rest 5. So 7 it is.
I had not seen the trailer and had absolutely no idea what the premise was. I can definitely imagine that it would be a more enjoyable experience this way, since I was surprised throughout. A fairly inventive movie, clever plot, and strong performances from the leads. The scares all add to the story, too! It's not purely jump scares for no reason.
EDIT: I just read the Trakt synopsis- it gives away a huge bit of the story. I am even more glad I knew nothing about this movie or I probably would have been more judgmental.
EDIT 2: Trakt has changed the synopsis to be more vague, but I still think I enjoyed the movie even more without reading anything about it or even seeing artwork. halfway through the movie I could not imagine how it could be a horror movie, which is exactly why it was such a good horror movie.
It's so much fun. It knows what type of movie it is and delivers. The story kept me on my toes. The ensemble cast is terrific. Chris Evans having a blast playing an asshole, Ana de Armas is great, and Daniel Craig playing a detective with a funny accent is a treat. I want to see this again knowing the plot so I can look for all the subtle foreshadowing.
After a rewatch I am even more impressed with how good the script is and how much is set up and paid off. This one is of the better movies of the year.
The first 3/4s of this episode are so generic and full of plot holes that I felt compelled to write a review. Every time Galadriel appears I feel I'm watching Mulan... The music can be so generic and underwhelming sometimes... Random 12-hour charge from the ships to save a village they had no idea it existed and was attacked in the first place. Randomly the queen knows Isildur very well and somehow, she decides: "oh yeah kid, go and fight because you're itching for battle with 0 experience", and oooh so it happens he rushes and his dad is in peril!... wtf???!!! are you for real? Same bullshit fight with the elf and the huge orc while Bronwyn coming to save him was so predictable... This is the worst episode of all so far. I'm sure Disney would've done a better job. The good like always are the costumes and the makeup, great looking orcs. last part of the episode is good, and leaves us with a cliffhanger. I wonder if they'll finally deliver next week
I'm enjoying the season (mostly) but it's definitely the worst season of the show so far. We need less Viktor, less Allison, less Sloane, and more Reginald!
Still mad they killed off the two most interesting Sparrow's first.
Oh damn that scene with Vanya and #1. Lay it out plain - don't fuck with her!
Will be interesting to see how she becomes Viktor but damn they could have given Elliot a better wig for the start of this. It's really good he was comfortable enough to play out the Vanya parts of the season though.
Well this was a very romanticized story of 28y old pedophile with a 15y.o boy. Alana at some points asks "is it normal to hang out with 15 years old kids?". Well mr P. Th. Anderson, no it is not normal. And of course dating a kid of that age isn't either. Awful movie
I've just finished the series and I don't have words to describe how amazing this show is. The soundtrack, the action, the violence, the jokes, the characters, the CGI, the chemistry are all 10/10. Besides the amazing acting from John Cena, I really loved Freddie Stroma's character Vigilante, which can see having a spin-off in the future.
Warner and DC really found their "gold mine" with James Gunn and I'm glad they are giving him the freedom to create anything he wants.
Peacemaker now is anti-hero and I can't wait to see more of him and the 11th Street Kids!
PS: I still cannot belive that part of the Justice League appeared in the last scene basically to confirm Aquaman f**** fish...
Ok someone has to say it, the goofy dancing, the serious faces, the music ... those title credits are the best of every episode ... I love them!
If there was a bit more character development, Rogue One would be one of the greatest films of the year. Either way, it was easily one of the best Star Wars films, and it got that way through likable characters, spectacular cinematograpy and a great final act.
Oh, and the Vader scene.
Can't even imagine the emotional and financial damage he inflicted upon so many women. Victim blaming is easy when you haven't been in the shoes of the other person. I'm glad they got their power back in some way, 'cause many of these assholes take advantage of discretion and these women made sure he was known for who he really is: a piece of shit, like one of them said, pathetic, definitely, and a criminal. Whoever's with him now won't be able to say they didn't know what they were getting into.
Why is a kid in it though ? This isn't Jurassic Park lol.
Wrapping it up with the title "Captain America and the Winter Soldier" was a nice touch :)
The rating should at least be in the 90s for sure! Very inspiring movie for me personally. If you have an idea you are trying to get off the ground, watch this movie, then you will start working on it immediately after. Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross do an amazing job with the soundtrack. Interesting note that approximately 83% of trakt has been coded while listening to this soundtrack :)
The Good Place + Black Mirror = Enjoying too much!
It became a tradition to watch this every 5th of November. By far one of the greatest films ever made, must've seen it 8 or 9 times by now, always blows my mind. If I could rate it 11, I would.
