Not Ji-hyuk testing Eun-ho by saying BTS song titles out loud ajdlajd
Not them finding out they're both from the future thanks to BTS, I'M YELLING
Wait, what they did with BTS is actually genius OMG.
My little ARMY heart is freaking the f out :purple_heart::purple_heart::purple_heart::purple_heart::purple_heart::purple_heart::purple_heart:
I can't believe their shared love for BTS was the catalyst to both of them figuring out the other came from the future!!!!
When the most enjoyable part of a movie is the end credits, you know you've got a problem. Very disappointed with this one and honestly confused how it's getting so much positive attention and doing well at the box office. The writing felt like Hallmark/Lifetime took a stab at R-rated. I know "chemistry" is subjective, but I didn't feel chemistry between any of these characters. And I don't know if the writing is to blame, but Sydney Sweeney wasn't really working for me at all. I've been a fan of Glen Powell since the excellent Everybody Wants Some (an R-Rated rom-com that is actually good, go watch that instead), so I was very much expecting to enjoy this, but even he wasn't able to save it.
Although the plot is kind a mid and predictable ; would recommend to give it a try for the action and concept . Also the fact that this nano-series is not gonna take much time of our lives is a bonus.
I feel like this season could have been better. The transformation was underwhelming. But was also an important season because it added more layers to the various characters. For this reason, I expect season 3 to be much better.
I still can't believe that this show ended. The amount of feelings I had because of this show just wow. Needless to say I absolutely loved it! Let me just say that the actors were absolutely amazing! The way they were portraying their feelings they made me understand the characters better but they also made me sympathize and relate to them so much! Also it was not cheesy which is a good thing. Totally recommend!
A jumbled effort that wilts faster than an ageing tulip. A pity, because the cast and the settings are very good.
The gyeomsaseo is such a creep. :sob: He was already bad as a child but he's like 5x worse as an adult.
I've been bored of this drama since last week. :sweat:
"I refuse to watch her being treated like a doormat anymore." Says the only man in this conversation who's constantly treating her like a doormat :)
The second lead was hot in his first two appearances (the funeral parlor and the shoe store) but he's been a :poop: burger ever since.
"DON'T MAKE A FOOL OUT OF AN INTELLIGENT WOMAN" AAAAH ILY JIN MOO-HAK.
Ohh I haven't seen the fish lip smack kiss in a while actually haha, what a throwback.
This has been niggling at me for a while but now I need to know: DOES THE DIVORCED MAN'S FIRST LOVE HAVE A THING FOR HIS EX-WIFE??
Ok fineeee the festival scenes won me over. :rolling_eyes::heart::hugging::grin:
What a wonderful way to introduce the second lead ahaha, with Du-sik just hanging there skdfjlhs.
That's how it ends? That's it? Open ended?
Oh, well. By now Esther and Babington were the love story I was here for anyway. He was the sweetest, most charming guy ever and she turned out to be such a more complex and compelling character than Charlotte. So much more interesting.
And they did my boy Stringer so dirty. He didn't get the girl, he turned down the dream job and his dad died. The boy can't catch a break! I'm so broken hearted for him, but honestly, he deserved better than Charlotte. In my mind, he goes off to London, meets a girl who falls madly back in love with him, becomes a celebrated architect and lives happily ever after with his lady love. He deserves it. He's considerate, hard working, and noble to a fault. He's earned a happy ending.
Also, Theo James is really sort of wooden. He's great for an aloof, stoic character, but the moment he has to display emotion it all kind of falls apart. Or maybe he and Rose didn't really have that spark of romantic chemistry and that's why he came across so meh. I don't know. I can only say that I couldn't muster any interest at all in their relationship. I'm sort of glad we didn't get the cliched "poor" girl/rich boy ending.
Even 10 Jake Gyllenhaals would not be able to save this movie. It's so boring and I felt like it was 1000 hours long. I watched it only because of Jake, but like I said, he was not able to save this mess of a movie :(
To quote the song lyrics played towards the end of movie...'The Book of Love is long and boring.' How apt! The film means well but never manages to hit the emotional buttons it's targeting. Corny and contrived, good actors are lost at sea in the shallow water of this drama.
In which Meg Ryan is a stalker, emotionally cheating on her fiancee. Tom Hanks is a charming widower.
I did not see this drama and I did not read the book, so when I saw it I was surprised how romantic this drama is. If you feel like watching a romantic drama this is it. Loved it."Especially when he says " turn and look at me"
i'm such a sucker for a good period drama. have to say though, lotta people had to die in order for these two to get a cheeky kiss.
I'm a simple woman, I see Matthew Goode, I watch.
It was not a great movie. On theater, it was this or a shitty disaster movie.
S1 of 'His Dark Materials' is enjoyable viewing. First and foremost, the special effects for this show are incredible. The animals and dæmons look insane, especially by television standards. That is the thing that I love most about this. The cinematography is also top notch.
Cast-wise it's good. It's easy to see that Dafne Keen (Lyra) has serious talent, she is impressive for the majority here - at a few moments her performance isn't perfect, e.g. when finding out something in episode two, but I wouldn't expect her to be, definitely the best actor on display and she'll only improve. You may think I'm forgetting or ignoring James McAvoy (Asriel). Of course he is 'the' star but he hardly features, he's just barely in three episodes. For when we do see him, he is - obviously - terrific.
Away from Keen and McAvoy, you also have Ruth Wilson (Marisa) and Anne-Marie Duff (Ma) involved - I've only recently become aware of those two, from 'Luther' and 'The Salisbury Poisonings' respectively, they are both good here. Elsewhere, James Cosmo (Farder), Lucian Msamati (John) and Lin-Manuel Miranda (Lee) are enjoyable in their roles. Helen McCrory (Stelmaria) is in there too, but I didn't notice her until typing this review to be honest.
I did find some of the pacing across the first four episodes rather off, there was a fair amount of times when I felt like it was dragging its heels. Thankfully, the second part of this eight-episode series is much better. The opening theme is superb, also. I look forward to catching season two.
I've always loved how Connell told Marianne he came to the bitter realization that the peer pressure was just in his head, that people wouldn't really care if he and Marianne were together. It's such a moment.
