Didn't expect the violence at all. I was under the impression it would be a fantastic fantasy film and I was wrong. It just was something COMPLETELY different than what I thought it would be.
To me, this is one of the most amazing fantasy films ever. Even more than the classic Lord of the Rings; Harry Potter; The Hobbit—Pan's Labyrinth has the perfect blend of supernatural and magic; brutality and beauty; death and love.
I wish Guillermo del Toro got make a 3rd film. This is much better than the reboot. I haven’t watched it since 2008 for some reason. The movie is visually stunning, quite funny, has cool creatures and entertaining.
Leonardo DiCaprio Performance Was Award Worthy
Johnny Depp Character was also Great
But Leo Stole The SHOW
Raiders of the Lost skull
this is actually a very good movie y’all just scared of aliens admit it
For me not as bad as other reviews suggest, I actually thought ‘Temple of doom’ was the poorest of the franchise. I must admit the cinematography, especially during the sword fight scene was horrifically bad though. My overall opinion is that it was still a fun, happy feeling adventure movie with a still amazing actor in Harrison Ford. 6/10.
The movie is great fun! Absolutely overhated…
Yes the plot is absurd at times and it can’t compare to the original trilogy. But I enjoy it nonetheless.
Y‘all need to stop taking everything so seriously.
Why does his dad look so much like George Clooney???
Surprisingly dark, spectacular animation and a decent story.
The DVD cover of the film painted a different picture but a film based in the actual year 1408..actually would of been pretty cool but I digress.
This was the first night of my Horror/Mind Fuck weekend. Movies I haven't seen. What huge surprise this was! Not so much frightening but the story itself drew me in. The allure and history of the room told in thode first few minutes along with the psychological roller coaster the writer was taken on. Great performances and would defiantly watch again!
Watched this for the flophouse. Much better than I expected but issues w the ending. For the first 1/3, I was thinking just do your job lady. You're being paid for a job do it! Then if haunting still happens, we'll address it.
One of the better horror movies these days. Did not expect the story to take the turn it did. Glad I gave it a try!
I love this movie because it has surprising but clear ending.
This was better than I expected. 7/8
How the movie should have gone:
Mrs Heelshire: ...this is Brahms.
Greta: LOL. Girl, bye.
credits roll
That said, it was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. I was expecting something in the vein of 'Annabelle', or similar supernatural movie, and thought it was fairly predictable throughout. Until the end, that is, which I definitely did not see coming at all.
This was a surprise! Creepy suspensful movie, well acted, written, and crafted by the director. The boy is creepy as hell!! I would watch the movie again!
I liked the twist but I wish they would've explained the family's story. A couple of jump scares, but not as much as I expected and for what I look for into a horror movie. Lauren Cohan is always a + though.
I really liked this movie. I love when you go into a movie with expextations and come out with something more. This was one of those movies that I thought was just going to be one of those typical haunted 'house' type of things but turned out to be much more interesting. The overall atmosphere of this movie was unsettling, even when nothing happens you feel this uneasy vibe. Good acting, good story, strong ending.
You've been asking yourself about 001 all along. who's 001? what happened to 001? where is 001? Turns out it all comes down to 001
IT CAN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS. SUPERB ENDING FOR PART ONE. PHEW!
They fight off the bat things with oars from the boat, but not only did they clearly not dive into the water carrying the oars, they also would not have been able to drag the buoyant oars down to the bottom of the lake and through the gate. (Or did they just happen to find some oars lying around in the Upside Down?)
Also is there no water in the Upside Down? Why isn't there a lake on both sides?
This is the kind of thrill I want in a show or Movie!!!
So many Goosebumps in this episode. Wow!
Glad I live in a world where shows like Stranger Things are made <3
what a banger of an ep, the plot blew my mind off
My score is an 8 because the writing is still solid, I like the world and the character interactions are really great (more Eddie please), but some of the stuff in the last 30 minutes had me scratching my head. Also Hoppers' storyline feels like a complete waste of time that should have ended in Episode 3, and the California boys got shafted for the final half of Volume 1. A bit all over the place.
What a great episode.
The story of 001 was really cool
Great plots. A terrific reveal. Strong performances all around. The Russia stuff is once again the weak link, but even it is pretty darn good.
El should’ve just run away with jamie
Netflix spared no expense on this season’s visual effects. Complicated timeline and multiple worlds sewn together seamlessly
so the rope gets stuck afloat in the gate between two dimensions but people don't
i wonder how that works? :thinking:
