This movie was filmed in Mexico by John Woo's mexican cousin Juan Quién, while on drugs. And still has better VFX than a marvel movie. Don't recomend.

Also, the wife couldn't take down the christmas tree and presents in all the time the guy was in hospital?

What does Marvel have to do with this movie? I guess it's living rent free in your head like all the other haters. lol

What If...?: 2x02 What If... Peter Quill Attacked Earth's Mightiest Heroes?

Why would the soviets send the Winter Soldier (a HYDRA agent), when they literally have a perfect option for this team with Red Guardian? Isn't Bucky supposed to be a myth right now amd responsible for dozens of super high profile assassinations? Why would you EVER want to admit he exists?

The What if title didn't give you a clue? Smh.

Honestly, who even cares about this "What if?" scenario? Three-quarters of the characters, I barely even remembered them, and as a season opener, it was hella boring...

Nah. It wasn't boring. You, on the other hand....

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".

@sweetdeath . Nah. You don't get what a good action movie is. Solve that problem, your stress will go down.

The Woke-nental, chock-full of clichés, tired racial tropes and feminist delusions. Half-baked action smothered in campy one-liners. The shallow character development and sporadic storyline seems like a ChatGPT script. More IP “reimagined” as dumpster fire for “modern audiences” via social Marxist writers.

Oh? You're a professional hater. You're mad black folks existed back then? Too bad.

Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One

Make the film 15 minutes shorter and take out the pseudo-Eagle Eye AI and maybe it would be decent.

The tropes are tired, the stunts were just ok, everyone is afraid of an AI that somehow is terrifying yet doesn’t do anything the entire film. The fact that there’s supposed to be a part 2 to this is concerning. There wasn’t enough plot to sustain one full film.

Hater. Simple as that. No one in their right mind, who has any good sense would say that. Congrats. Smh.

The language with which both men talked about their families as possessions really stuck out to me. It's what led to one being unable to grieve his dead family and the other being unable to connect to his living family. The ending showed how viewing women as mere set dressing for men's lives ultimately leads to tragedy for not just the disposable women but for the men living in misery and loneliness.

I'm into episode 3 right now and doesn't seem to get better at all. Season 6 so far is disappointing. BM was so much better before Netflix.

Not really. Netflix is doing a great job. This season just isn't one of them.

Wow. That's a stretch right there. I didn't get that at all from this episode. Seems like that's coming from something personal. You need a hug?

Despite not wanting to pull the trigger for a genuine emotional pay-off, this does have the most heart and emotion out of any Marvel movie throughout. I think people will be surprised by how dark and emo this gets, which is established straight from the opening credits. Unfortunately the rest of the movie is a bit of a mess. Adam Warlock and the villain are bland, the plot has a strong ‘we’re making it up as we go along’ feel to it, the tonal shifts and needle drops feel more jarring than cohesive and the action (despite a cool hallway fight) isn’t handled with the same care as the previous 2 (or The Suicide Squad). It’s probably the worst looking Guardians movie, however that incidentally still makes it the third best looking MCU movie. The characters and acting are the two main things that keep it watchable (especially Mantis, Drax and Nebula get a lot of time to shine here), but the entire picture feels unbalanced.

5/10

I disagree. Vol 3 is great from beginning to end. It was perfectly balanced like all things should be.

About 15 minutes was OK, the rest was like watching paint dry.
