I knew that the movie was going full comedy with a twist of an indie production, but sadly we found a very similar movie to Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.1, having many similarities in the design of the cities, clothes and spaceships. We lose what made Thor movies interesting, and that's the nordic references. Loki plays his most boring role in the MCU, he basically does nothing related to the plot, just repeating the same "I hate you" actions as always. However, Thor does evolve, having a more interesting development in his relations with other characters. You will have fun with this film, but it's far from the best of Marvel movies.
This episode made me Urban Dictionary something. Way to go SVU!
Makes the 2017 cut looks like trash!
Hated it.
As simple as that.
Terrible way to take the series to. I mean it's not as bad as the prequels, because the acting is quite all right, but it hits so many bullshit moments where I was facepalming every other scene it's unbelievable.
My name ia Hunter Zolomon and I am the highest Man Alive. When I was a child I saw my father shooting my mother. My father went to prison for her murder. Then I went to an orphanage because nobody wanted me. Then an accident made me the impossible. To the outside World I am an ordinary hero whose name is Jay Garrick, but in secret I kill time remnants to mentally confuse Others and find speedsters like me. One day, I'll find Barry Allen and I'll race him. I am Zoom
Ari Aster is the master of horror. Not only does he know how to make a bright spring day feel haunted and creepy, he's an expert at bending space and time for his transitions. It will be a while before something catches me off guard like this movie did.
I feel like just about everyone will connect with this movie in some way. It's funny, sad, charming and honest. Saoirse Ronan's performance is one of the best of the year. Her chemistry with Laurie Metcalf makes the Mother/Daughter relationship really work. Lucas Hedges and Tracy Letts are both fantastic too. I think every kid in high school should watch this movie.
Edit: I saw this again and it is still my favorite of the Oscar nominations. It really has a way to make you feel like your in high school again. Makes you realize how much you parents do for you and how much I love mine.
Edit 2: I watched this again, twice in two days, this time with my parents. My dad was cracking up at every time Lady Bird was shit talking her mom while my mom didn't think it was that funny. He also said some of the dad's lines literally right before he said them. After it ended my mom said "That's it? I thought she was going to come back and write her mom a check."
I get why the critics gave it the positive reviews they did; the cinematography was outstanding and the direction and performances were all very good. I enjoyed it a great deal for those reasons. However, I also get why much of the viewing audience was less positive about it (like the two friends I went with.) It is most definitely a slow burn, psychological horror film that lacks the in-your-face shock and/or gore moments common in the majority of contemporary horror films. It's also bound to leave you with more questions than answers (as one friend complained, "There's not enough info!") If you want to see an extremely well made film and aren't put off by films with a slower pace that demand a bit of imagination, I highly recommend it. Seriously, some of the camera work is breathtaking.
While the Shallows isn't one of those big summer movies you waited for. The Shallows is one of the better summer movies. Due to a solid Blake Lively (Savages) and it's at least a convincing shark attack movie until the end that is.
The movie had me at the edge of my seat throughout. Even when it got unrealistic by the end; I still rooted for Blake Lively's survival.
unlike most of the other CW superhero shows, Black Lightning isn't overblown with soap opera type storylines. yes, there is some family drama thrown in, but that's to be expected with the main character being a family man, but it's not overdone. good first episode and if this keeps up, i think we have a winner. i also have to mention his costume, which looks awesome by the way
Really amazing work from Franco. Much more sincere and moving than I expected it to be, but also hilarious!
The best of the show
It was extremely beautiful. The acting and scene were just breath-taking. The story, though, not so much. Unfortunately predictable from the first moment, it was rather disappointing. Very artistic experience, though!
I was really looking forward to this and wasn't dissapointed.
A great movie about two personalities who couldn't be more different and yet so much alike.
It’s like the writers remembered all of a sudden that Barry is a genius and a science nerd. That was nice to see. Nothing else in the episode makes sense though.
Glad there are still great story's in this world that make you believe not everything is utter shit and that there can be hope.
I saw the twist coming.
Watch it once. Forget it.
After watching the movie, I thought about it. The more I thought about it the less plausible the plot became. That is not a sign of a good movie.
I've only seen the first two episodes, but so far, I'm in love. I enjoy the fact that this isn't just another superhero vs super villain show but actually shows the real-world struggles of the black community. It is good to see that TV is no longer afraid to portrait this. Please take all of this with a grain of salt as I'm writing this as a privileged white dude.
Oh the tangled web you weave boiled down to a 2 hour long allegory. Uneven and poorly paced, but well acted and fun wrap up. Worth watching but you can never rewatch once you know the end.
