Thought it had a wonderful and interesting build up, but was highly dissatisfied with the ending.
It is hard to pinpoint what exactly is wrong with the film. Ritchie's kinetic style, the period 60s setting and the design are all suited to the material, the film seems well cast and the tone of the film seems spot-on. Perhaps it hews too close to the Bond formula at times - Cavill almost seems like he is auditioning for the role here - but equally, there is a distinct lack of chemistry between the two leads. Both Hammer and Cavill are convincing on their own, but their scenes together don't seem to work as well as they should and for a film like this that relies on their pairing, not only for this story, but also for possible future instalments, this is a glaring problem.
I give it a full +1 on the rating just because...
Beating a guy to death with a Tonka Truck.
Delete the dinosaur, cause that was just awful.
Didnt like the dinosaur part it was total crap
Throughout this entire episode I could feel a real sense of dread building, even when things seem to be going well. This series definitely keeps things tense!
Fuck you Mio!
I loved the scene between Tsubaki and Kousei. She finally took the first step. And just when you thought that the death flags couldn't possibly increase, A-1 stepped up their game once again. RIP Neko-chan.
Some things never change: Kira is still creepy (and getting creepier by the seasons) and Sarah still thinks her hoodie is a cloak of invisibility.
Great episode, loses points for racist imitation of Japanese language (while eating Chinese food).
So, this where I learned that psychedelic cyberpunk experimental film is not for me. Despite two excellent horror sequences (the subway chase scene and the initial scene where the woman tries to comfort the man come to mind) and very sharp stop motion animation, the lack of a clear narrative really pulled this one down for me. The meaningless gore and moralizing anti-sexuality were incredibly off-putting to me, even as a fan, albeit a casual one, of horror and exploitation films. I might be convinced to watch the other films in the series, but this one was, at times, torturous.
Please don't vote before you've seen the episode.
Five, when given the choice, picks the gun that's bigger than she is...
No idea how to fill the pages? Add petty drama.
The blue ranger is a haughty, effeminate ninja with a nasty sense of entitlement, from a proud dynasty, who's been studying at a magic school in England. Draco Malfoy, is that you?
I would prefer more battles, less talk and fluff. So, it's disconcerting that they edited out some battles. It's like the show is afraid to be what it is. They should get Grant Imahara (Mythbusters' electro-mechanical engineer) or somebody like that to MC - someone who can take it more seriously and speak intelligently about the technology and tactics.
The things that annoy me in this show are actually the same things I hate in YA books (you can easily tell that series is based on such a book).
Let's take the Anya situation as an example. Clarke and the others are literally fighting for their lives and Anya attacks them and tries to kill them. And then suddenly Clarke yells "Don't! We're not like the Grounders!". And all I can think is what the hell. This is about pure survival! They already killed Grounders and people. And now they have the chance to get rid of one of the leaders and they don't do it? This is "kill or be killed".
In most YA books they would regret this sooner or later because Anya would betray them or stab them in the back. I'm actually curious how the show will handle it - Will Anya actually help them or will she try to kill them again?
I recommend watching Florence Foster Jenkins: A World of Her Own before you see this movie; it basically is a documentary on Florence and just how delusional she was and how the people around her basically took her money by giving her praise. I did enjoy this movie with Streep (and I am not 60+ years old). This movie was good, it stays true to Florence's character since that was just how she was; she's KNOWN to be the world's worst opera singer and the movie delivers in showing that and showing her iconic moment of selling out Carnegie Hall. It's silly and touching at times. If you're in the mood to learn a little bit and have a few laughs, I recommend this movie. If you want to know more about FFJ before seeing this movie, watch the documentary.
Movies like this are the reason I watch movies. The film doesn't promise you anything, and the plot sounds kind of silly. It even starts out a little weak, but it draws you in and doesn't let go, and by the end you don't even care that you just watched a movie that all took place in a small room. Amazing film.
Too many damn lens flares with the last 2 episodes, lens flares don't make the show and it's quite distracting. I'm surprised they didn't add lens flares to bald people's heads or eyes.
The structure was a mess. Any enjoyment I would have had in the movie is ruined by how poorly scripted it was.
what the actual f**k!! Did not guess that would happen.
7.4/10. Good, if not great episode. I know Trump provokes nothing but outrage, and rightfully so, but I expect more insight and cleverness from the show than just pointing out the obvious about his awfulness, though maybe there's only so many angle you can apply to something like a presidential candidate being caught on camera talking about committing sexual assaults.
The main story on closing Guantanamo Bay, however, was a great segment that had the right mix of information and advocacy. There was there to educate you on the raw facts, but also enough of Oliver and his staff's perspective to make it feel like it was all adding up to a cogent point. The laughs were a little slight, but it was still a quality segment.
That said, ragging on Billy Bush and the leader of Chechnya may be amusing enough, but it too feels like shooting fish in a barrel. The "is this your cat" business was fun, but leaning into it starts to make it feel like you're just watching the "this week in wacky news" segment of your local news broadcast.
Overall, some merely decent supprorting bits, but a quality main segment boosts this one.
Better than every episode last season, except for maybe the flash crossover. So glad they're pumping the brakes on the Kara/James relationship. After Arrow, I don't think I could handle another should we / shouldn't we relationship.
The Superman team up is great and this Superman shows Snyder how the character should be. A plus is that James isn't in the episode much. Except when Cat left for awhile and James is the new boss.
Which sucks since she was entertaining. James is dull. Superman left and James is the new boss. There goes next week being as good as the first two episodes of season 2.
Good episode, but the series is missing something. I feel like there needs to be another main cast member or something. Maybe we just need a better picture of the overall plot...
This episode is all Joe. Free from distraction and hungry to prove himself, he really comes to his own on this episode.
Gordon and Donna, two characters I really enjoy, are reduced to typical soap opera plot lines. I really hope the writers have something bigger in store for these two characters.
This movie is your brain on drugs. Lots of stuff going on, but someone forgot to include coherency... and a plot.
Carrie is really pissing me off.
