Totally idiotic way to show 16 minute webisode.
After these "webisodes" AMC next project for TWD is spin-off that will be shown 1 frame/week.
The show had its ups and downs through its season, but the final two episodes were game changers and made up for every little bad thing. The show is amazing and can't wait for next season.
It's so rare to find such jewel. Everything about this show is perfect. Stellar cast that superbly does the job. Not one bad apple among them. Script, dialog and narrative are finely tuned machines that deliver the exact amount of excitement needed. After watching only one episode I recommend this show to everyone because I know that it will deliver excellence throughout the entire season.
Terrible. Seen reality shows better scripted than this piece of garbage
edited after episode 7:
I think that the connection to the Superman franchise is pulling the show down. If this was a generic Sci Fi show I would give it passing grade.
Why its always the teenager that get powers? Why not 40-something mother of five?
My score: 2 - Terrible
Cheap plot, slow tempo, no thrills or goosebumps whatsoever...
Kids did good job, although too much rapping in horror movie for my taste...
Not to mention that found footage movies are no more innovative directing as they were in the beginning of that wave,
now it is a crutch for bad script and lousy director...
More and more I am convinced that Shyamalan was one-time wonder...
Time to put him to greener pastures...
Did not like it.
I guess it will go well with star stricken audience that watches movies just because a movie star that they like is in it.
For me it is a bad movie.
Bad characters (after watching the movie ask yourself what did you actually learn about lead characters.
Not two rows worth of character development and also almost no interaction between them).
Bad heist plot (multiple plot holes and inconsistencies:
SPOILERS they drag Ann to toilet so they can steal the necklace and then act that they found it somewhere else because it slipped although it was pointed out that it can not slip since you need magnetic key to remove it, or at least wouldn't it be easier just to give her the fake necklace in the toilet saying that it fell.
Also later they drove off with the rest of the diamonds while the place was in lockdown by "best security team in the world" that just accepts "oh, look what i found in the pool" explanation...
Not to mention the movie is caled Ocean's Eight but there were seven women in a group which made Ann Hathaway's reveal at the end not so much of a shock, more of a meh.
There are many more plot holes but it would take longer to read them than to watch this movie.
About SJW in the movie
they managed to cover all "the colors of Benetton", Also it is marketed as a movie about an "All women's heist team",
but in the end they have a male in a team, but I guess he doesn't count and doesn't deserve an equal part of the loot.
Constance swiped one necklace and gets 38 million, but the guy that collected all the rest gets a tap on the shoulder, and no credit.
There is a reason why this was dropped even by Disney Star Wars.
The whole movie is a meh. I could sleep through segments of it, and it wouldn't affect the story one bit.
Sadly, got through it all wide awake.
About at half of the movie, I started to force myself to power through to the end,
but not one unpredictable thing happened during the entire runtime.
The real problem begins when you try to deconstruct it scene by scene.
If you begin finding all that is wrong with it, you cannot stop, and it takes a review longer that the script of the movie...
From bad script (felt like patchwork), stiff dialog, lousy characters, bad acting, bad accents, predictable tropes and stereotypes,
to the terrible by-the-book directing with fight slow-mos and quick cuts.
The CGI ranges from OK to terrible, but even practical effects are bad and look cheap, not to mention the costumes that look so anachronistic and out of touch.
If you have free time to spend, dont watch this, instead watch again the original source movies.
Bottom line, and the biggest problem with this movie is that there was nothing good that caught my eye.
It is one of those movies that you watch maybe once and never again.
brought to you by fans love for rapist psychopath character from that other show.
Should've been called "First World Problems". A story of a man with loving wife and a well paid job complaining about everything.
Zzzzzzzzz.... Looks more like an insane asylum in space than spaceship on a mission.
For the likes of me I can't find one sane pearson on that ship, and not in a good way.
It looks like everyone is acting in their own solo show,
and then someone took all the pieces and made Nightflyers.
Hoped it would improve with more episodes. It did not. Actually it got worse...
This is a bad movie (3). Predictable plot (bad script). Non-existent dialog (also bad script). Half-assed acting (bad acting and directing).
Only thing that it has up his sleeve is its 150 million dollar budget that paid for good CGI and lightning. It is another Hollywood factory blockbuster. Mostly flash without any bang.
I think I know how the story goes.
Dream episode, really. So out of ideas that they pull Dream episode filler.
Just binged it, and it is fantastic. Superb production with great acting and captivating screenplay.
wrong year.... it's 2016 not 1969.
I still don`t understand how can this movie be so boring with so many great actors in it, but it is. So boring.
Very interesting premise, but they forgot to put any meaning in it.
Much better than the movie. Two episodes in and I'm hooked.
P.S. Sadly, after whole season, I don't feel the same. Not sure why, but my hype for the show kinda fizzled out.
The feel for the whole show is a meh (5), but I gave it fair (6) score just because of hype from beginning.
Another "Hit and Miss" for Disney Marvel. Could've been a good show if this stayed in Marvel Netflix instead of Disney Marvel.
The show had potential, but they totally missed the direction of it. If they made her a brutal assassin that is in the ranks of Kingpin or Punisher, the badass that copies her opponents moves, and deals with them in hard hitting gore action it would've been much better show. Instead, they went with some mumbo-jumbo crap, echoing her ancestral spirit, whatever that means. Totally messed up the whole native-american vibe (see Kahhori in "What if" for comparison) and made that part boring as hell.
They put her in a lot of family interactions, where she's supposed to show emotions but instead just stands there being as blank as possible. Almost no character development and dialog weren't much of a problem, since she should've been brooding, silent, don't show emotions protagonist, that lets action speak for her, but they made her neither here nor there. All in all, one of the shows to watch, just to check it of you watchlist and then forget about.
It's that simple. #NoClayneNoWatch I don't care who is mad at who, and who did what, all I see is unprofessional work that put private problems ahead of making a good tv show. If the production doesn't care what is better for the show, why should I care about it.
From great adaptation of "Lethal Weapon" they turned it into stock, nondescript, "insert protagonist name here" tv show.
From brand to bland..
James Roland is a genius. I still can't figure out how he convinced executives to produce this terrible piece of television. It is so bad that I can't find one good thing to say about it. Stay clear of this, it won't last long anyway before it is cancelled.
edited after watching whole season:
You know those things that are so bad that they come out on the other side and feel good. This show is like this. I still think it's bad.
Sin City 2 bad. But I am glad that it had a chance to air, and I don't regret wasting my time watching it.
They could've hired some five-year olds to write the better script. it has the same level of quality as any of other teen Disney tv shows.
When by episode two you start rooting for the bad guys.
btw this is Moses story, right, did I guess right?
The worst thing in an "Adam Sandler movie" is the Adam Sandler.
This is absolute treasure and everyone should watch it.
Was thrilling in the 80s, but in 21st it's just standard everyday dating.
