A great movie but transparent ending. Still worth a watch and a recommendation.
During the past month I've made a point to see all the movies nominated for the Academy Awards, Best Picture. Tonight, I am absolutely heartbroken that this wonderful movie received not a single nomination in any category. I tis just tragic!
This fantastic movie should have at least(!) received nominations for Best Picture, Best Makeup and Best Actor (Forest Whittaker).
Great movie !
Wow. with this flick Pixar underlines its leading position in animation movies.
Great movie for the whole Family.
Real existing story with nice music and a lot of fun.
Enjoy it! Must see in Full HD and minumum 5.1
I read this comment about the movie which said "It felt like reading a good book, which is the highest compliment I can give to a film." and I couldn't be more precise .
I was amazed by the amount of complete lack of interest I had of this movie. It is not often I see something this boring. Sorry. I know I am supposed to love it and think it's all inspiring but no. I didn't care one bit for any of the characters.
Stylistically gorgeous with great music and beautiful cinematography (dem colours) but the story and characters in particular were quite lacking.
One of the best compliments you can give to a movie is that it takes you and wouldn't let you go before the end credits. That's what Max Mad did to me. The whole movie is so intense that my eyes were glued to the screen. The cinematography is gorgeous and make a world come to life. The main characters feel real and you can rely to them. I like it when a main characters isn't the 'invulnerable' hero, so you feel more tenses in the scenes because 'it could go wrong for him'. All this is directed in a perfect way. All of the action is filmed with a steady cam, thank god! No shaky cam but steady and wide shots which make the action scenes a real experience. I have no real faults with this film, I loved it from begin to the end. So I would recommend it for everyone who wants an awesome 2 hours.
I saw it in the movie theater yesterday and I constantly had the feeling that I've seen it before. To me it felt like the writer took parts of several movies/genres and combined them. Add some special effects (lots of them) and the result is Lucy.
The whole thing together just didn't do it..
The Maze Boring.
If this were a book, it would go in the Did Not Finish pile.

Ahoy sexy!
This is that kind of a film that left me with a huge smile on my face. Just delightful!
Frances Ha is a lovely little indie film mostly about growing up. Frances is a very unique and honest girl, she tries to keep things in her life together and she wants to be a dancer but she not seems to find some stability in life. She is also very immature sometimes and that does not help too. So, we follow her journey in New York where she is trying to pursuit her dreams while other things are happening between the lines.
It's funny, touching and honest. Beautifully shot in black in white giving it an even more charming look.
Greta Gerwig is just brilliant! She really shines in this film with such a natural performance and I know that from this day forward I will always look at her and remember Frances. I guess I just love an awkward character like her.
You'd think the failures of M. Night Shyamalan would have taught filmmakers that a plot twist at the end of a movie isn't enough to compensate for a meandering and unconvincing plot. And, isn't the entire reason we, as a society, enjoy magic tricks the idea that they're physically plausible?
The movie has these moments where they explain the 'trick' of how the robberies were done throughout the movie, and they always play it off as "OMG did we just blow your mind???". But with even a small amount of knowledge of magic and some basic logic, the tricks are pretty easy to figure out (except when they use SciFi gadgets that don't exist). Also I don't understand why the four magicians did all those crimes. For the fun of it? Because the plot demanded it? Kind of dumb.
Pros:
* The first ten minutes
* The Redhead (when she doesn't talk)
Cons:
* Virtually anything else
The overdid everything with this movie, not a single actor is convincing, CGI looks pretty bad and kills all the tricks (what's the point of tricks if you have to resort to FX anyway ?).
The storyline isn't great either, AFAIK I can't say the ending was very surprising. At any rate the acting was so emotionless that I didn't really care anyway.
Action scenes are average but at least this movie won't make you fell asleep
Looked good at the beginning, but the ending was dreadful
I was dis-interested the whole way :[
Most people went out of this sad, quite a few people in the cinema were crying...I was just angry. Angry at those horrible, horrible people that called themselves her family and friends. Your 14 year old daughter tells you that she pukes up all her food and you DON'T TO ANYTHING?
Amy Schumer shines in this original narrative penned by the comedian herself. Trainwreck is crude, blunt and full of pure laughter and a little heart. The film's appealing leads along with its surprisingly comedic athletes help highlight the credibility of Schumer and make this one of Judd Apatow's best direction in years.
Michael B Jordan! I could sit through a two hour movie of him tying his shoelaces <3
And I dare you to watch the scene where he's training and the music is pumping and then he goes running down the street with the bikes circling him without wanting to jump up and punch something. That song and sequence got me pumped! I've never seen any of the other Rocky movies, but I definitely enjoyed this flick.
The movie takes the first half of it to the world-building, and it does that successfully. With a series of events--only minimal dialogue--it shows the kind of apocalyptic world Max lives in. The plot is fairly simple, but the world which plot rests on it is convincing. The war boys culture, resource monopoly, woman objectification, etc. The rest of the movie jams the audience with action-packed scenes while slipping insight into the world through several lines of dialogue and character's behavior.
Some relationship/character-building seem to happen off-screen and seem to be implied, but the progress seems natural that you know something has been going on between them. You can see the development of one of the character where he went from a brash, rash youth to a soft-spoken guy. The last scene seems to put off the suspension of disbelief for a while (on how easy they made the final decision after going on for that long), but it is remedied by the action and the last drama involving one of the supporting character. Very solid composition for a fantasy-action movie.
A disappointing mess from the opening credits
Ms. Summer did NOTHING WRONG honey we love you :heart:
8/10
Loved the music, the behind the scenes, and the locations choices, but the pacing, editing and whole aesthetic was just not for me.
Pretty entertaining and an interesting watch but I'm gonna need the "rich people bad" films to at least find more unique angles at this point because while I agree wholeheartedly with the message it's completely hamfisted and played out.
In addition to that, I felt like this movie was giving me whiplash with how it would go from interesting to bad to kind of good to bad to "omg this is really good" to "wow this is stupid."
And that ending was the most predictable thing ever.
[HBO Max] There is in this film a combination between the observation of nature focusing on the smallest details and a portrait of the brothers who try to contribute a grain of sand in the fight against environmental degradation in a city like Delhi, which it devours its inhabitants on the surface but it also devours life in the skies. It's a mixture made with meticulous attention to detail, with a sense of the visual that is overwhelming. It reflects the illusion of two contributions that can be small and frustrating sometimes but that prove to be above all passionate and powerful.
