Just another movie Dc fans can be disappointed of.Boring Storyline could be tolerated.But why are the action scenes so cheesy:expressionless:
It's funny to see bad reviews for this movie, and a lot of criticism towards JJ, but it's clear that all the choices made in this movie was to correct the choices made in The Last Jedi, the movie that was hated by all the fans till yesterday, but now people are praising.
The Rise of Skywalker is a great movie, specially for fans, it's a great way to end this saga, filled with fan service. I don't think I can say more than that without spoiling the experience for everyone.
All the critcs you see here, or on twitter, are coming from people who thinks star wars, a space opera, should be a deep and complex movie with fanfics about romances.
Mando is the only person on screen I've managed to see fight his way through situations holding a child. Lots of creative action sequences given the slower pace of the last episode. Baby Yoda continues to be the highlight of the show and must be protected at all costs. This is the way.
I watched it in the cinema with a reasonable sized audience. Everyone laughed. Everyone cried. It's perfect for achieving exactly what it set out to do. It'd be nice if Tom got awards nods for this, but Mariana Trevino definitely needs nominations.
The writing is great, you have a story that keeps you interested. You only get dripplets of information each episode. On top of that you have great action sequences. This show continues to improve with every episode.
"Will they kill me, do you think?"
Don't go into 'Spencer' expecting an ordinary little biopic about Princess Diana. Nope, this is a straight up psychological art house horror thriller. 'Spencer' brilliantly captures the feeling of dread in an isolated foreign space surround by strangers. The royal family themselves are freaking creepy, always watching, always judging.
I must be honest, I wasn't a big fan of Kristen Stewart's recent work, as it never wowed me, and I wasn't convinced that she's improved since Twilight. But man, she's fantastic in this movie and it's one of her best performances to date. Stewart manages to portray Princess Diana in a new light that we haven't really seen before. In my opinion, her other movies failed to show her versatility as an actor, where I fully believe this movie did her justice. I'm just glad this movie won me over.
On the other hand, Timothy Spall is excellent in this movie, and another stand out performance. If you are aware of Spall as an actor, then this isn't surprising news, but I feel it needs repeating. I found him very eerie and overbearing. He plays a man with an eagle eye; he watches everything and everyone in the royal family at Sandringham House.
The major thing that this movie made me realise is that in Diana's life it's the people that kept her mentally and emotionally grounded. Her two sons, her assistant (Sally Hawkins, who is very good in the small scenes she has), and the chef played by Sean Harris, who is someone you would not think of being important.
Sean Harris is a very underrated actor that I wished people talked about more. Harris is known for playing sinister roles, but here I thought he was really sweet and shows a softer side. He's got an interesting sounding voice as well. Jack Farthing as Prince Charles does a great job playing a slimy over-privileged **** Stella Gonet as the Queen who I found really unsettling, especially her dagger eyes.
There's one scene at the dinner table with the other royal family that is one of the most intense things ever. It was anxiety level stress that made my heart racing. All thanks to Pablo Larraín claustrophobic and unique directing. Complimented by Johnny Greenwood's atmospheric, free flowing and tense score.
While I know that certain elements of the movie are fiction, but then again, the movie begins with a title card "based on a tragic fable" and I feel like the movie is playing into the nightmarish fair tale of an iconic figure in history. Diana's life in royalty was no fairy tale, but a Brothers Grimm tale.
Overall rating: The movie has metaphors to ghost, ghost of the past, ghost of old tradition. People who follow tradition isn't too kind to rarity. Great movie.
Best episode of the season so far. The show was dragging and seem to lose it's purpose and intent, MURDER! Looks like it is back on track. :thumbsup_tone1:
Cannot believe this was an international release it should have been straight to streaming along with a warning not to waste your bandwidth.
It’s a good movie!!!
No Oscar’s will be won and no body will rave about it….
Don’t wait until you have watched all the movies that you want to see, to get around to this one.
Put it on your list for you that movie you want to see soon…..
But give it a watch and your guaranteed to cry at least once, it will become a different movie to the one you thought you were going to watch, but that’s not a bad thing!
You will figure out where it’s going and what you believe the ending will be, it will then give you a curveball and say “ no we aren’t going there”
But then it will immediately start going there, but once again it will look you straight in the face and say “we are fooling with you, we aren’t going to really do that” then it will…..
The last ten minutes you will see all those lined up penny’s fall into place and your finish this film feeling how you should……
SAD, HAPPY, TEARFUL but best of all……
COMPLETE
A very bad sequel, Lebron is not an actor just a bait for the people.
I should’ve listened to the reviews. It was a stupid, pointless, waste of time, nothing explained, some movie maker getting hard on over piece of pretentious piss of shit art movie.
Trust the negative Reviews, this is a shite movie.
You will waste 1.5 hours of your life you will not get back.
I'm sooo fangirling over this little Charmed reunion! Made me soo happy to see Alyssa and Holly together on the screen! And I didn't miss the nod Grays gave to Charmed - all three sister's name starts with the same letter, H as Halliwell :) And they were totally Piper and Phoebe in character. I just loved it!!!
SHIT!!! She's alive!!
They didn't kill her!!
Stephanie was the MVP!!
Jerrika did an amazing performance!!
This episode was intense!! I was scared for her and the little girl all the time.
So Minnick got fired... You see it was about time.
She didn't fit there. Those people care about each other and the patients too.
I don't think it's going to be the last time we see her. But she needs to change.
I feel sorry for Arizona, but she deserves better partner, who makes her feel nice, not a person who loves to go against her friends. That's to stressful.
What the hell is this Maggie and Jackson thing?? He was is good place with April.
Nathan... That's it?? Poor Meredith. That was hard.
Owen needs to let Amelia be his person. Stop with those fights.
So that's it. Till Season 14.
What an absolute waste of a pretty good cast. This show was pretty terrible and pointless. Trust me, if you're thinking of investing your time to watch: DON'T.
It’s almost like the Russo brothers saw what people’s main critique of their Marvel films was, and thought: well fuck you, we can be stylish if we want to.
So instead of doing another Marvel film, they opted to make something that will remind you more of a Michael Bay or a bad Danny Boyle film.
Like, the directing is really annoying and excessive.
Also, I think there’s a bit of a disconnect between how dumb this character acts versus how overintelligent Holland and the Russos are trying to portray him through the (unnecessary) narration and dialogue.
A shame really, because I think the script checks a lot of boxes, and the cinematography is certainly better than any of their Marvel films.
The score isn’t half bad either.
The most positive thing I can say is this: I like that the film is at least trying something different.
It’s just a shame that the horrendous directing constantly takes you out of the story.
5/10
This season has some fun here and there, but overall it has felt too listless to me... until this week's ep, which is the first one (8 eps in!) that feels like season 1-2 level of creative energy again. The three working together finally being the main part of it, but also returning character that don't miss a beat interacting with our main trio and new ones, some actual plot-advancing reveals (one right in the beginning!), two great musical turns from Martin and again Streep, and a damn good cliffhanger. Hope the final two weeks keep this momentum up.
This movie could have been great. It's a waste of time.
I liked the performances of Tom and Ciara but I felt they were the only characters in the movie I could remember. Really sums this movie up. Forgetful. Didn't need Tom speaking to the camera. Movie was way too long for what it is. It's a real shame because I think the potential was there for a great story.
I’m sorry but that “premiere” was not good at all. Too much going on but yet not enough. Can’t wait till the rest of “team flash” come back lol.. I did like the Eva twist a bit tho. & Harry little bit was kinda sad but other than that I dead ass took nap during ts.. oh and I WISH THEY LET IRIS OUT ALREADY DAMN
Nice little Charmed reunion there.
I recommend watching Florence Foster Jenkins: A World of Her Own before you see this movie; it basically is a documentary on Florence and just how delusional she was and how the people around her basically took her money by giving her praise. I did enjoy this movie with Streep (and I am not 60+ years old). This movie was good, it stays true to Florence's character since that was just how she was; she's KNOWN to be the world's worst opera singer and the movie delivers in showing that and showing her iconic moment of selling out Carnegie Hall. It's silly and touching at times. If you're in the mood to learn a little bit and have a few laughs, I recommend this movie. If you want to know more about FFJ before seeing this movie, watch the documentary.
They should've let Chester touch the fusion sphere.
Also, Top was under police custody without a metahuman dampener?! Who the hell thought that was a good idea? And Cecille is now torturing people??
CW, just let this show die FFS.
How did Shonda Rhimes manage to swing getting in 2 of the charmed sisters. Nice touch.
I'm so glad somebody gave Bailey an "everyone comes here for Meredith Grey" speech.
I disagree vehemently with Merediths end statement-"because when you let your guard down, you're a lot more likely to go down a dangerous path."
its been 3 episodes and im still not getting it! i know freakshow and hotel were bad but they were better than this
Terrible premiere episode for this new season. Just tired, uneventful and pointless... I'll always watch for the beautiful Candice Patton but it's sad to see what this show has become. It just limps along now waiting for a multiverse crossover episode.
In an extremely dry season that I haven't been that excited to watch as the weeks go on this episode completely turns it on its head. Really integrates the theatre and murder investigation perfectly which has not happened at all this season and suddenly I am excited for next week because of that ending. Meryl Streep is just bloody brilliant!
It starts as a mess. The character is a confused middle aged woman in a personal crisis who has no idea of what she's doing and therefore, until she figures it out, we just get to watch her stumbling along. Eventually though, Kim snaps out of it, and finds her place and passion. From then on, the movie improves, and becomes totally worth watching. As stated by others, this isn't a comedy, but it isn't a typical war drama either. I'm not entirely sure I like the light-hearted tone given to the story, but there were some excellent sensitive moments. and the ending was quite satisfying.
The setting is interesting, but the story is shallow and uninspired.
The monster is underdeveloped and not scary. The family drama is superficial and unconvincing.
That said the acting itself was fine considering the lame script.
This could've been a pretty good movie but the story was kind of stupid. It's along the same vein of the eco- horror movies that came out a lot in the 80s where man has disrupted the ecosystem and a creature has been unleashed to get revenge on them. So with this movie, the oil rig has opened up a cavern and leaked oil everywhere in the ocean and the ocean God is mad and unleashes a Megalodon Shark to get revenge on the guy who Signing off on the safety inspection even though it had tons of problems. The shark also seems to have some kind of telepathy to make people see hallucinations. And from what I got from the movie it also causes them to become overdramatic and turn on each other. I hope that's the case because a couple of scenes in the movie the characters just seemed to fly off the handle and act psychotic. Sounds kind of ridiculous doesn't it? On a positive note though it was filmed pretty well and the shark didn't look bad. I think you could take the idea of a bunch of guys stuck out on an oil rig being attacked and pursued by a Megalodon and drop the whole mysticism and it would've been a much better movie. There also would've been a lot more people to pick off with that type of movie.I don't really regret watching it but I doubt I would watch it again.
