This show has nothing exceptional about it at all. It's pretty lame and cookie cutter. Disappointing.
The whole cast was really well chosen, but Malek...Oh, Malek did just a phenomenal job here! He really shows his caliber as an actor, absolutely worth seeing!
Good acting, it is a shame they went with the Scooby Doo writers guild. They had so many options for the writers to do more than making just another cop show. Zombies, crime writers, cops from the future, people with amnesia all fighting crime. Seems that the only professions that exist in TV land are cop, cop sidekick, doctor or lawyer.
Am I the only one that thinks this movie f'ing sucks balls. Didn't like this at all
3 Thoughts After Watching ‘The Little Mermaid’:
Halle Bailey IS Ariel. She was absolute perfection. From voice to vibe, she captured her essence impeccably. I believe a star has officially been born.
Melissa McCarthy had veryyy gargantuan tentacles to fill. And I think Pat Carroll would’ve been incredibly pleased with what she did with her sea witch.
I thought they built upon the original film’s story in all the right ways. Fleshing it out to make a little more sense. Providing more substance. While not everything was picture perfect, it worked and gave fresh magic to a beloved story.
Bonus Thought: I thought it was a fantastic movie to look at, especially under the sea. Gorgeous colors and visuals. Eye candy all around. And that includes Jonah Hauer-King. :pound_symbol:snack
This show used to be funny and it's also used to be one of my favorite TV shows (hence I initially rated this show a 10 on trakt). But starting from Season 7 the show has becoming redundant and it's going nowhere with its forgettable plots. This seems like the show is now more on the money rather on the quality.
I am so sad to say this but I won't continue watching this show.
Best comedy on TV! So idiotic it's genius!
After starting off looking like another cliché procedural crime drama, Lucifer evolved into one of the best shows of the year.
More of a thriller than horror but it's great. Elisabeth Moss is really good at playing an unstable woman. The action is awesome and shot well. The plot has a few shocking moments.
I went into this expecting a stupid movie with hopefully a few laughs. I was blown away by not only how funny the movie was, but how well it deconstructed religion, faith, and reason, and how those all need to work together to make our lives better.
For people who thought this movie was stupid - sorry, but you're stupid. If you couldn't appreciate how well this movie showed the uncaring, awful universe - and why we need to tell ourselves stories that make us enjoy it for as long as possible - then you're just stupid. If you didn't see how this movie talked to atheists, how it presented a convincing argument for faith and religion, alongside the perils of both, then you're the one who missed something. If you couldn't see how this movie demonstrated science, reason, and skepticism, and why those are still not enough, then you're just stupid. It showed, beautifully, the power of mind altering drugs, and how some folks are just going to go ahead and do the worst of them, with no regard as to what others have to say about it. That's a reality that we need to accept, and need to stop pretending that we can make go away just by wishing it so.
Within this cartoon universe, the creators of this movie explore themes in a way that I've not seen done before, demonstrating the power of animated story telling applied to adult themes. Yes, the movie has crass humour, some of which falls flat but some of it is tear inducing funny. But if this movie doesn't make you think, it's because you're stupid.
Go see this movie.
This show is filling the Orphan Black shaped hole in my heart. Thanks, BBC America!
E.T. and Super 8 meets a Stephen King story equels one of the best new shows to binge watch on Netflix.
Fantastic episode. The two best episodes of the 4 so far have had no Amy Schumer and no Cara Delevigne. Imagine that.
Going into this I did not think I would like this at all but I loved it. I think this is my favorite performance from Drew Barrymore yet! Very binge worthy.
I honestly think this whole season was a waste of time because I can't even name three things that would make this season relevant. It just feels like pure filler with bad writing. I'm sure I could have skipped this whole thing and didn't miss out on anything.
- I can't believe Bear just suddenly remembered he had a camera installed. What an absolute lame "twist" to solve Kenny's death.
- Geraldine was just... pointless? I thought she might be involved with the Twelve or has some personal agenda, hidden secrets or something. But I guess the whole point of her was to have mommy issues?
- I was hoping for more infos about the Twelve when Villanelle becomes a keeper, but I neither know what a keeper even is nor do I have any more knowledge about the Twelve. Disappointing and feels like a wasted story that Villanelle tried to go up the ranks.
- The ending was okay. I wish I could be more emotionally involved, but the whole season was such a drag that I just feel... numb. It's nice they finally chose each other, but I hope that'll be relevant in the next season because the cat and mouse game gets a bit boring by now. And I hope they'll finish with season four.
This show is seriously becoming unbearable to watch. I've officially started fast forwarding.
5 Years later the mothers of the Liars are still in the cellar..
Mostly okay, but too much airtime given to egocentric youtubers and their conspiracies that are only interested on themselves and being the ones finding the truth to be the hero, instead of honoring the memory of the victim.
Those people haven't done any good and caused harm. Why giving them this exposure ?
Beside that, there are interesting and caring people giving great inputs.
I don't know, this could have been a good work about mental health but instead it's wasted trying to be a thriller show.
Assuming that this is intentionally meant to be camp is doing it a service it doesn’t deserve, I think.
Yes, there’s goofy and trashy stuff in it, but they play it mostly straight with the presentation, i.e. most of this feels like it’s trying to be an actual movie. It’s not as over the top and entertaining as it needed to be, like it’s certainly no Malignant or Drag me to Hell.
Instead, it’s one of the dullest experiences I’ve had in a long time.
All of the actors are instant razzie frontrunners (especially Allison Williams, holy shit what a trainwreck of a performance) and the writing constantly veers between human dialogue as interpreted by aliens (or M Night Shyamalan), and unintentionally (yes, unintentionally) funny garbage. I know it’s unintentional, because the intentional jokes that are worked into the script aren’t funny at all.
The story is of course laughable and completely predictable. So many unnecessary, boring scenes, as well as quick bits that are clearly aimed to just be memes on TikTok. Even the crazy stuff felt fairly restrained to me, it’s not nearly bonkers enough to become entertaining. For example, don’t go into this expecting more of the dance sequence, because all of the best bits are in the trailer.
Finally, the filmmaking and visual style are instantly forgettable. Not a single interesting shot or artistic choice in the whole thing.
In short, nothing fun or clever about it, just very typical January horror kitsch that was probably only greenlit as a tax write-off for Jason Blum.
1.5/10
Really funny movie. A bit crude, but still funny. Plus Jennifer Aniston... you know what I'm sayin'?
Netflix is really knocking it out of the park with these true crime documentaries. This is another fantastically created series.
I'm still sobbing as I write this. The film is very good but it is quite traumatic. It is a subtle meditation on grief (as symbolised by the monster) and will ring true to a lot of peoples experiences. Billed as a family film, though I fear young ones will be too scared by the monster and too upset by the subject matter. Brilliant performance from the young lead and a great script that isn't as heavy handed as it could have been.
The start of this comedy show was rather way over the top with its female main character Eliza and almost forced popculuture references everywhere.
But it changed somewhere along the lines of episode 3, toning down without losing its premise when most people probably were already gone watching other shows.
It's a shame. This comedy is comparably focused on its main characters and isn't wasting time on unnecessary sideplots like the big comedy shows do nowadays to give every character a certain amount of screentime.
This show focuses on the two main characters Eliza and Henry and that is good. The chemistry between those two (actors) is great and becomes better and better as the story goes on.
Of course even this comedy show has the typical roles like wacky characters, flaws, "obvious" plots (main characters growing attached to each other) and doesn't reinvent the wheel. When it started I didn't have any high hopes either, thinking I am droppping it when it goes down the road it lay down in episode 1 but despite that it grew pretty much on me.
It's a solid, feel good type of comedy show with a rather realistic, modern approach to it. Quality wise I'd put it somehwere near You're The Worst, although the latter is darker and more cynical in its humour.
As I said, a shame that this show got cancelled so early on.
It's one of those cases where a smaller network would most likely keep it running. No doubt there.
The game is one of the most disappointing movies I have ever seen. It was very good for the first 110 minutes, and in the last 10 minutes it completely throws away whatever credibility it had for the entire movie. Suffice to say the ending completely ruined the film.
Spoilers ahead
They honestly expect you to believe that this guy is totally cool with being manipulated and deceived into believing he had murdered his brother. They expect you to believe that this guy would just be cool with believing they ruined his life and left him for dead. Fincher thinks the audience will just understand that this guy, who attempted suicide 5 minutes before, would just have a drink and move on. It somehow made sense to fincher that the guy would somehow jump off a building in the exact place the tarp was to hit it right on the x spot. Michael Douglas just accepts that these people forced him to murder and attempt suicide, and then just walk it off. "No no it's a prank bro, seriously bro it's a prank man it's a prank!" Most insulting ending I've ever seen.
Oh wow... I wasn't expecting this show to be so damn good! I was hooked after the first episode. I LOVE it!!! Jodie is so good in this. Sandra too.
I'm 3 minutes into the episode and I cannot do this. Another musical episode with no storyline? No. Just NO!! What next? Riverdale on ice? Omg, if the writers have ran out of ideas, why can't they just write a good final season and cut their losses?
Edit: I skipped through the whole thing, so let me save you the grief of watching. All you need to know is that Betty and Archie kiss and realize they may have feelings for one another. Then, skip to 40:45 and watch the last few minutes.
I honestly can't get over how good this show was. Started out on a whim Saturday night and binge watched the entire series in two sittings. I was hooked from the get go. From the synth-y soundtrack, to the Stephen King meets Goonies storyline, everything about this show is truly gripping and enjoyable to watch. If not a huge success, Stranger Things is surely a modern day cult classic.
It starts of pretty well, but then it gets better and better. There are a few places where the logic is a bit thin (not saying it doesn’t make sense, but you have to give it some leeway), and there are a few too many comedic touches for my taste, but other than that, this is a terrific film, powered by an Oscar worthy Elizabeth Moss (who won’t get nominated of course, because it’s not that type of film) and a talented director who will have Hollywood producers begging at his door after making this for a mere 7 million.
8/10
I feel sorry for Glenn Howerton having his name attached to this obvious tragedy that the show will be.
“Morty you nasty lying little world ending pervert”
This was a great episode
