Most remakes don’t live up to the original. But certainly this one surpasses all the previous ones. Proof of it, it’s the fact that I have never been able to watch a musical without walking out until l watched this movie.
The movie shows how much Lady Gaga has grown as an artist, probably becoming the best and most versatile voices of the XXI yet. She is able to reinvent herself every other day in a way very few artists throughout history have been to do it.
I was not a “fan” of her. She made me curious when I heard her duets with Tony Bennett, but now after seeing her ”natural looks” and the way she is able to sing and act, she has finally won me over.
I would advise not passing on either the movie or original sound track.
It's hard to believe that a movie with this cast based on a figure hated this deeply could somehow result in a miss, but this movie is an absolute mess. The movie struggles tremendously to pick a tone, often seesawing between parody, sarcasm, and deep drama. It comes across as a parody of itself. With a figure like Cheney it's amazing that you can mess it up.
On top of this, the film is more fiction than fact, and it actively works to create screen time of someone's fever dream rather than historical events. It is an insult to the audience.
Other than having a talented cast this film offends the senses, even for the larger of Cheney haters. A complete disaster of cinema.
Tasteful duration, which allowed pretty intense and detailed firefight scenes. I felt this was a really great action movie, but it didn't quite feel like a 'war' movie. An excellent performance from Chris Hemsworth, especially for a role he's not typically in (military).
My favourite movie. I have watched it countless times.
I believe this is my third time watching this movie, and I still love it! Easily my favorite Cinderella movie ever. It always leaves me with warm, happy feelings. Definitely a movie to watch time and time again. Honestly, fairytale love stories never get old
taron gives an amazing performance as elton! the film creatively merges the biopic with the musical in such a fun, refreshing, and visually pleasing way. i love the well-crafted blend of the reality of elton's life with the more magical and spectacular musical performances
A brash and exuberant musical; not unlike Elton himself, then! I enjoyed the film more than I expected - I'm more of an admirer of Elton's songs than the man himself - this is a well-made and creative piece that can be appreciated by fans and non-fans alike.
What an experience! It was magnificent and really powerful. Brilliant lead actor.
I was expecting a little more action and a bigger shootout but I’ll let it of by it basing it on true events. I thought kevin & woody made a good team. It was over all a decent film and worth a watch but did drag a little.
Finally a movie that tells their real story, a movie that doesn't glorify Bonnie and Clyde but pictures them for what they were - criminals. I don’t know how they were glorified for what they done. Woody Harrelson and Kevin Costner were pretty good!
The Proposal is a good comedy but like with most rom coms it goes downhill once it crosses the midway point and gets serious when the protagonists begin to fall in love. The bickering and the fighting in the beginning that's where the movie's real strength lies. Bullock and Reynolds have great chemistry and the way they go back and forth made me laugh a couple of times. Still no regrets. Sandra Bullock is one of the very very few actresses in Hollywood who can pull off a comedy as well as a drama.
Although the movie is predictable, like most romance comedies are, nevertheless it was sweet. It may not be the best romantic comedy I have seen but the movie still holds lots of charm.
I really adore this movie. I don't really care if it's predictable or not. I laughed and I had a great time.
Cuuuuuute movie! Love Minnie Driver...
I LOVE LOVE LOVE This movie, it's one of my all time favorites!
Masterful for its time, and still timeless today.
Make no mistake. This is not a great movie. But somehow I enjoyed it. Maybe it's a combination of Dolby Vision + good music. It's just beautiful to look at. I would definitely watch the sequel Ibiza 2: Tokyo!
Some excellent performances, in a movie that smartly makes light of the whole situation. It's interesting to see all sides of the story, and it helps build a better understanding of what actually happened and what kind of people these are. I was entertained.
Good solid thriller. I like Jennifer Lawrence. I think she is a chameleon and this role proves it. Great cast, superb twists and turns, with a few fake outs (in what I thought were the culminating scenes of the film, something went sideways, and I thought, "Shoot! They just crashed the logic of the whole plot!. But I was fooled. I was wrong in what I thought had happened, and the final twist was entirely unexpected, leaving me rather impressed with the writing). I give this a 7 (good) out of 10. Nudity and sexuality.

I disagree with the previous comment. I think the story is unique (I did not read the book) and beautifully told. I was extremely invested throughout.

It move me the scene where Lee lost his family and since that moment he couldn't keep forward.
I was pretty ambivalent about this film through the first half but then it pulled me in towards the end.

I was really excited for this. Although it did not disappoint, it did not match the expectations either
Carey Mulligan is the reason this film caught my attention. This is a savage tale of war, hate, brutal racism, hope and love. Great acting. Riveting storytelling if uncomfortable content. This film also employs an interesting narrative style I've not seen before, where the various characters, in turn, narrate their points of view - it was very effective, especially the two voices that conclude the story arch. I give this film a 7.5 (poignant) out of 10. [Historical Drama]
Finely nuanced drama is both hopeful and despairing. In the end, we are reminded of a common truth. Not everybody is good and not everybody is bad. Then there are those who fall in between. A very good film, with much to recommend it.
Netflix has been great at original tv shows for a while but they are really stepping up their game with their original movies recently. Mudbound is fantastic. It's a little longer but never drags. It hooks you and you really start to care for the characters. Really great performances by Jason Mitchell and Garrett Hedlund. Hopefully Netflix keeps this up this quality with their original movies.
