The king deserved a better movie to be hot and evil in
I watch a lot of mediocre Hallmark movies and generally I enjoy them. I know they're not masterpieces but they're a fun time and sometimes that's all you need. This one though, I think it casts a wider net. It's still a silly, good time but I think a non-hallmark fan could still enjoy it.
It has time travel(a personal favorite of mine) and generally good dialogue and acting.
The set is pretty. It's fun, it's cute and it's even occasionally funny.
There's a sort of lazy quality to most Hallmark movies and this one lacks that. They did a great job and it felt like they actually put some real effort into it.I loved seeing the clips from His Merry Wife. They could've easily made it cringey and over-the-top but it's really well done. Hell, if Hallmark released a full-length His Merry Wife I'd watch it.
I have such a strong attachment to this movie(check the play count) and I've watched it every year since I was 15 so I'm a bit biased...
With that said, as far as DCOM's go this is one of their best ones. The soundtrack is great and the acting is generally good(it does include some over-acting but that's Disney for you).
It's my #1 comfort movie. It's a good time, I'd recommend it!
Look, I get it(for the most part) but it was very boring. A clever idea, to be sure, but the characters themselves were unappealing and the plot was both complicated and very simple concurrently somehow but that isn't enough to make it enjoyable. A waste of a good premise, I think.
My favorite part was when that old lady yelled "Who cares? He's dead!" at her own husband's funeral
Anyway Haylie Duff supremacy
People are saying the ending was terrifying but really he just seemed like some guy who wanted to be left alone.
I'm not a big fan of the genre in general so maybe that plays a part too. It was very well edited though, in that it seemed like a real documentary so I'll give it props for that but other than that I was mostly just bored
It was certainly a movie
I thought I was in for a good time when the cow started talking but it only went downhill from there
Good movie...but the sex scene was an odd choice
So many good one liners in this one
Fag
Sorry?
*pulls out cigarette*
Every time I see his head boy badge I wish it was an invitation
You're on the school magazine this term?
I AM the school magazine, no one else can be fucked
I can be fucked...uhh I'd like to help
The gorgeous Glenn is 45 minutes late
Probably just got held up
By his balls, I hope
Don't be melodramatic, just faint?
Great soundtrack also
This is now my go-to lesbian Christmas movie(not that there are that many to choose from but still).
It was really cute, the acting was fine and I've always been a sucker for the fake dating trope
oh wow(derogatory)
Just watch Gremlins instead
If you, like me, enjoy slow paced atmospheric movies set in one location then you'll really enjoy this. If not, I'd recommend skipping this one.
It was obvious by the first half hour where it was heading but I really enjoyed it anyway. I have nothing bad to say about the acting and the script was pretty good. I feel like some of the characters could have been developed more if the screen time allowed it but oh well. Solid simple movie.
If you did like this one I'd recommend Life (2017) and The Bay (2012). Or if you were disappointed and want something similar but better.
I'm not gonna say this movie gave me a headache but I did get the worst tension headache I've had in a while during this movie.
I don't remember the dialogue being this cringey in the book so I don't know what that's all about but it was Bad with a capital B. I also don't believe for a second that these two love each other. I like hot people as much as the next person but please bring back chemistry tests. I don't even care if they're ugly just make me believe they want each other please i beg.
There's also the god awful acting, not to mention Uma Thurman's accent???
The soundtrack kind off fucked severely though, in a semi-ironic way.
Was it good? unsure
But was it a vibe? absolutely
It's very pretty but not much else
Looking at Gizmo physically hurts. He's so cute I can barely put it into words
It's objectively bad in every way but it's also funny and I had a good time so I can't in my heart of hearts rate it any lower
A row of pickled gherkin is pretty serious
A fun bisexual mess idc :orange_heart:
(they should have been a throuple though)
It has aged surprisingly well and it has some funny one liners. In general just a fun time really
Men Yelling: The Movie
It had some funny moments but mostly it was just pretty snow scenery and yelling
This was a mess but kind of an entertaining mess?
I think it would have been much more effective as a horror thriller than this weird romcom drama it was trying to be.
I can't with a clear conscience say that it was good but it did keep my attention all the way through because of several things that were just so....morally fucked up. I just had to see how this was gonna conclude
There was no way this would've ever lived up to the original but it was definitely fun. I wish the main new characters would've been fleshed out a bit more though
This man's hair was wet or drenched in gel or mousse throughout the entire movie and I gotta say he looked hot.
It was interesting enough but I feel like they could've done more with it. I'm not opposed to rewatching it at some point but I wouldn't recommended it to anyone unless they specifically like anything related to mad scientists and parallel universes. While it may not exactly contain those things I think it would appeal to those people
It's a great movie and I hated it. It made me angry and I hate both of them(but I also don't). I had a bad time but also kind of a good time but I got a lot out of it and I don't know what to make of that
Love/hate relationship with it for sure
Listen, my expectations were low and I was still disappointed. I'm not too picky and I can find something to appreciate in most movies but this one was extremely slow and not much happened. It's 100 minutes and yet it felt like 4h.
The only reason I didn't turn it off after 20 minutes was because of Tom Welling
I went into this without any expectations, I knew nothing about it and the premise sounded okay but by the end I was fully in love with this story and these characters. This is definitely a new comfort movie for me.
When they first started getting closer I was prepared for it to take a romantic route(it's to be expected and it's been done so many times before) but I'm so glad it didn't.
In conclusion: It was great and we need more platonic love stories
I had really high expectations going in and it surpassed them by a landslide and every minute was a fucking blast. Now, it should be mentioned that I'm a whore for time loops so that's definitely a strong factor BUT I think most people would enjoy this
The vibes, the pacing, everything
The first half was lighthearted fun. The second half almost had me shitting myself. So there's that
I should mention that I had pretty low expectations as I'm not typically a fan of found-footage type movies and yet I quickly became very invested in what was going on and although the premise is very simple it still worked extremely well
I still can't get that ladys face out of my head. The eyes and those noises? no sir, no ma'am. Fuck that shit. I don't usually look away when watching horror movies but I genuinely felt like she was staring into my soul bro
Throw the whole child away
It's a bit like if you took half a glass of freshly pressed orange juice and filled the rest up with water. I get what they were going for but it just lacks anything that will truly make it interesting
It falls short with the humor, the thriller aspect and the character development and I just feel like they could have done more with it.
Not horrible but yeah, watered down orange juice
There's toe sucking in this movie and I did not anticipate or appreciate that
It does have some funny dialogue and that vibe that only early 00's horror movies have and even though it was kind of goofy and stupid I had a good time and I'd probably watch it again if it was on
