The ultimate gagfest. I have to admit, I'm not a huge fan of superhero movies except for a handful, and this one has virtually no story, just a bunch of cameos and multiple references to Fox movies from 20 years ago. Is that enough? For some viewers, probably yes.
It works just like internet memes. It'll be funny for a week and then forgotten. It only makes sense if you know the Marvel cinematic world on and off screen (e.g. cancelled Fox movies).
It's really hard to make a bad movie with Emma Stone naked for half the film. But, wow, here we are.
It is true that Emma is a good actress (however she is a shitty character with dubious ethics), the production design, costumes and cinematography are great. But that's all, an empty shell as one of the quirky characters says.
No, it is not an smart or surreal film. The brief message (repeated once again at the end, in case you are stupid) is interspersed with long cheap porn scenes that do not provoke in the sense it is intended. It's a terrible movie, no matter how many independent film awards it wins.
One of those ideas that seems more appropriate for a short film.
If you watch it with low expectations, you'll be surprised because it's more fun than you thought. But most of the best gags are listed in its trailer and it lacks "something" to be a better movie.
Another boring and inconsequential Marvel movie, not much different from what DC would do.
The change of positions between protagonists is the only interesting thing, but it doesn't feel very used.
Yes, it's a good movie, it's well directed and the performances are great. But it's not the kind of Nolan movie I want to see and it can get boring if you don't know the subject or the real story.
Boring. Overrated. Slow. I know it's considered a classic but I haven't seen any interest in it. Perhaps for the North American audience, but in other countries the message does not leave a mark. There are a thousand more interesting police stories.
Not the best Star Wars series, certainly not, but not the worst either. Some characters are interesting, the battles are decent, and it at least tries to tell a story. On the other hand, the music fails, it repeats a lot (a couple of episodes could be cut) and there is less budget than in Mandalorian.
In short, better than Obi-Wan and The Book of Boba Fett. Although the bar is very low.
It's not Fury Road. It doesn't pretend to be. It expands the Mad Max universe, adds charisma to the characters and ends up making the saga, if it wasn't already, one of the great milestones of cinema.
It has aged worse than I remembered. There are some memorable gags, but the story is very silly and the musical scenes ruin the pacing. It entertains but it is not the best comedy of its genre. Naked Gun and Airplane! are better.
It's a good series. It doesn't do anything special, but it maintains the quality of the original, and that's already much more than what the current Marvel offers.
It's a Katsuhiro Otomo film, so you can expect great animation and spectacular action. But it is not a masterpiece, the story is not that interesting.
It's entertaining, to say the least.
Probably one of the worst movies I've ever seen, at least with this budget.
Bad, and a new demonstration that the first season was a 'one hit wonder'. A similar case to Westworld.
Slow, with personal plots that are not interesting, with gratuitous gore that goes nowhere. It's really a shame because I want to like it but no, it's a terrible season.
I know that it is considered cult, but at least watching the season now I have the feeling that it does not reveal its full potential. It doesn't seem like a great fantasy story, or a mecha story, or a romantic one. It has all this, but also many clichés, villains who change sides easily and a story that is too long for what it tells.
Yoko Kanno's music is fantastic, that's true. One of the best soundtracks in anime.
Worst than Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It doesn't feel like an Indiana Jones movie. Harrison Ford is a spectator of the action in the background who goes from one place to another without much meaning. Sorry, but the movie is not only a universe away from the original trilogy, it's also lacking in the set pieces from the fourth.
I expected something more after the John Wick comparisons. Yes, the one shot scene is spectacular, but the rest is pretty generic.
Great performances and a really good start for the series.
Really bad, and I'm a fan of Halloween. No terror, minimal gore and terrible story.
Good, and Cruise as villain is a plus.
Monotonous, inconsequential, boring. Not what the MCU needed right now to raise interest after a whole completely forgettable phase.
It's ok. Good action scenes, although the humor that would work in an anime/manga here sometimes is a little cringey.
A classic sci-fi anime, although I have to admit that it goes from better to worse. The first episodes surprised me positively, but the final stretch drops the level and I lost a bit of interest.
In any case, it deserves attention for any fan of the genre.
Classic cyberpunk anime with a 80s vibe (although it premiered in 1990). Only three episodes but worth watching.
I'm not a huge fan of the original, although I've seen it many times and it makes me nostalgic. This sequel is similar, it has lost its freshness and doesn't seem to expand the world created, but it's not bad. I've seen sequels to classics that are much worse, like the latest Ghostbusters.
Entertaining, it has a few minutes left over, but in the final part it picks up and I liked that some musical scenes were kept.
Aside from some silly aspects of the plot, an interesting B-movie with good visual effects.
I know, it's a well-known and well-remembered youth film. But seen today, it's very weak. The humor isn't very good, the horror isn't either, the actors are from a bad sitcom. The only thing that's moderately interesting are the special effects for its time.
In a similar vein, I like The 'Burbs (1989) much more.
It's an Alien movie that feels like an Alien movie, unlike the last two. It has some good ideas, but I think the quality is being overstated. Surprisingly, I think the horror and tension have been toned down a lot.
Short films of varying quality, although some are really good. It's a shame that only loose chapters are extracted from Tommie without much context instead of adapting the entire manga (which would take a full season).
It's considered a classic, and it has interesting ideas typical of the genre. It probably didn't influence The Matrix because it was released so soon before, but there are some similarities.
I haven't enjoyed it as much as I expected because the pace is too slow and I think it tries to be unnecessarily confusing. I prefer Ghost in the Shell, which deals with similar themes but in a more successful way.
At least you can watch Serial Experiments Lain in a couple of days.
