I feel pleased and in high spirits after having seen the movie. It's not a great movie, for the moment I rate it a little lower than The Force Awakens but it is a solid 7/10. It's not going lower. By comparison, I felt absolutely nothing after Episode 8. During "The Rise of Skywalker" I had tears several points in the movie, especially at the end. Overall I feel satisfied.
I really loved the general idea of the movie. The problem is, it's only half baked. They didn't have time. It's unfortunate they lost time developing the arc with the second movie. This happens when you don't plan a trilogy in advance.
Here is how I rate the sequel trilogy
1- The Force Awakens
2- The Rise of Skywalker
3-
4- The Last Jedi
Make no mistake. This is not a great movie. But somehow I enjoyed it. Maybe it's a combination of Dolby Vision + good music. It's just beautiful to look at. I would definitely watch the sequel Ibiza 2: Tokyo!
Of course this movie is a classic and should have won the best picture Oscar. One thing I dislike about this movie is when it jumps into the future. I would have preferred it if it ended in its own period.
I am a "film viewer" and I watch and enjoy different and difficult films. This movie is total crap, avoid it!
Absolutely loved this movie. So charming and it had the magic. I have not seen a rom-com this charming in a long time.
I'm amazed that each time I watch this, I enjoy it immensely. I enjoy it more now than when I was a kid. This movie is timeless. The characters are so iconic that their look is burned in my brain. And great music too.
I enjoyed this more than fast and furious. This felt like a real racing movie.
This was so bad. Just watch the original 1978 with Peter Ustinov. First, Kenneth Branagh is so bad as Poirot. He can't speak just 2 words of French. Don't they have dialect coaches? The Game of Thrones girl was also so bad and fake with her accent. Just embarrassing in 2022 and it takes you right out of the movie. 44 years ago, they actually chose actors who could speak the parts they were supposed to play.
The movie is also bad on other levels. You get no character development outside the main 3. In the original you knew all the other characters. There is no fun, no humor, no tension. Not that the original is a comedy but it has a magical combination of humor and seriousness.
This movie is unbelievably bad.
The problem with this movie is not that it glorifies anyone. The Godfather did that and it's a masterpiece. The problem is that this is a terrible movie. Badly written, badly made. You don't understand anything. Nothing is told correctly. You don't understand the people, the situation, nothing. Not one straightforward story is told. Someone going around killing people is not a gangster movie. You have to understand the situation.
This is definitely not better than the first one. They made several major mistakes. CG characters, CG animation is not scary. They went too far. The first one is as scary and disturbing as the Exorcist. I get easily scared but this movie broke something half way through with that dog thing that it was not scary anymore to me.
I liked this more than the first one because it didn't have Darth Maul and neatly followed and closed the first movie's story.
It's an OK movie. Nothing extraordinary or magical. It just lacked that sense of wonder. It was straightforward and dry.
Spielberg had so many opportunities to add the stories that he himself has told so many times. For example I remember him saying how shocked he was when as a kid he saw Holocaust survivors with tattoo numbers on their hands. Why not add that in the movie? Why not add the kid seeing and hearing WWII stories from soldiers? Why not add all these small details that later make him the person he is in life? Focusing just on the family drama wasn't that interesting or emotional.
I loved this movie. It's much more than a who done it movie. Although it's not targeted for my age and I don't think it's particularity that special in the making aspect, the message of the movie is so great.
Huge spoiler, ruining the entire movie (read after you have seen the movie):
The idea that everything bad that happened was because they did it to themselves by being rash, prejudging and not thinking was such a great message.
This was very average at best. The story might be interesting but the execution was poor. They show the same story from different vantage points but one of the problems is that instead of being interesting, sometimes they repeat the exact same thing several times with no new information which gets tiring real fast.
I really enjoyed this. Don't understand all the criticism. Everything looked plausible to me for a casual viewing. Don't need to go into details. It's like saying Star Wars is a bad movie because there is no sound and explosions in space. Consider this a fantasy movie with ice and trucks. Have fun.
My only real big problem with this movie was killing his brother. Like it's the right thing to do. He is only good when he is dead. He has no future. Totally unnecessary and offensive
Unbelievable. I'm giving this movie a very low rating just because of editing. This is not a slow burn, this is a very badly edited movie. I have no idea how anyone allowed this to happen. This looks like the first assembly cut where they put everything in. I feel like no one went and edit it further!
You could cut out an hour or 1/3 of the movie and still keep all the sequences in. Every scene, every dialog goes 2, 3 times longer than it should. Again using the term slow burn is misleading. There are many slow burn movies where you do not get bored.
Why on earth they thought they have to have a 2h 39min running time? This aint Michael Mann's Heat.
This is one of the most annoying movies I have ever seen. If they make a stand-alone Jar Jar Binks movie, it would be less annoying. They dare to say at the end that he is one of the greatest Briton of all time! Really? Where did you show that? You just showed a bumbling idiot whining all the time and not doing anything. If you didn't know better you would think this movie is a propaganda made by the enemy at the time of war.
I was totally ready to get into this story and enjoy it. I'm afraid this movie is terrible. The first thing is Emilia Clarke which did a terrible terrible acting job. She always had the same smirk on her face in any situation, sad, happy, annoyed. The director did a terrible job of directing her. I also did not buy for a single second their supposed love story. The third act is not working at all. You don't understand her motivations, her feelings and it just didn't work. Very disappointing movie.
I was hesitant to watch this movie and not in the mood to watch a heavy drama. To my surprise it was amazing. No forced drama and it was actually to my great surprise a lot of fun to watch. This movie was faster and more fun and more thrilling that Amazing Spider-Man 2!
I loved the part where Emma Roberts gets excited hearing one of her poems is getting published in a book and goes crazy turning on and off the light switch!
I watched this from start to finish without getting bored or dozing off. I enjoy very much emotional movies but this thing went completely over my head.
At the time of watching it felt random things happening at random times. The main character disappeared for a long time. Not much connected to each other. At the end I can see the overall story but it is not in a strong cohesive way. I didn't feel connected.
And what was that music choice? Music itself was great but it was a very sombre and maniac score more appropriate for Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho.
Oh my God, what was this? This was by far my biggest disappointment of the Covid era big movies. First it was way too long for no good reason.
The ending infuriated me. Was that the response in the first sight of trouble? To die and abandon your family? Don't they know that science advances? Maybe in few years they can create things to counter that. Especially that it's synthetic nanobots. They can create nanobots that go inside and kill them. We can create vaccines that attack biological viruses. Attacking computer made stuff should be easier. In worst case scenario, they know that zoom and Skype exist, right? Doesn't he want to stay isolated and see her daughter and talk to her for longer? And they had the gall to say at the end, James Bond will return? Really? As the walking dead?
This was Daniel Craig's worst Bond by far for me. I just consider this never happened. The last movie had a pretty good ending.
This movie was bad on all level, all level. What idiot after a big robbery and killing everyone goes back to his house?
Loved it. I was engaged from start to end. Very inspiring. I was also going to say, to me it looked a little like a TV movie than a theatrical movie just like how The Irishman looked to me.
Absolutely amazing movie. I enjoyed it much more than what I was expecting. It was a great surprise. It had great music and I had tears many times. I have no special connection to Tolkien, never read his books. This is just a great movie on its own and it is for everyone regardless of if you know who he is.
Great movie. Amazing music. Can't emphasis how important the score is. Everything great and believable until Robert Pattinson showed up. Every time he is on screen it's like a really bad SNL skit. We are in 2019, couldn't they cast a real French actor or at least someone with a better accent? This is especially jarring because they did everything else so well and everything felt so real. Removing one star because of Robert Pattinson.
It was a great movie. It should have been released theatrically.
This is like the poor man's Heat. If you start to think a little bit about the plot, everything breaks down.
