Maestro is a magnificent film. It is not just a story of Leonard Bernstein's life but rather a story about human life. I found myself surprised by the emotions it inspired. It is a beautiful picture with standout performances. Bravo Bradley Cooper.
I love how mad some comments are on here, goes to show that this is exactly what they need to see, this isn’t wokeism, or a gay agenda, it’s simply showing that there is more comfortability in sexualities these days, and it’s time to grow up because this “agenda” is here to stay :)
A bit of a nothing burger, it doesn’t really get interesting until the final 20-30 minutes.
There are a few entertaining bits inbetween (e.g. there’s a fun scene with Paul Rudd in a Wallmart), but there’s not nearly enough going on.
It’s just mostly bland: some decent acting and directing, but there’s not a lot of action, mystery, charm, clever comedy, drama or characters to get invested into (besides McKenna Grace).
For example, Finn Wolfhard gets as much development as the older brother from Jurassic World, he’s a teen and he wants to get laid. That’s all you get, and it’s not that interesting.
There are, of course, a lot of ‘member berries, which add nothing besides empty nostalgia.
The original Ghostbusters leave the biggest impression with just 5 minutes of screentime, and they clearly didn’t even give a shit about being there.
It’s not the worst thing ever, but this falls short of the benchmark for this kind of movie.
Just watch the original, or anything directed by Spielberg and Cameron in the 80s/90s.
5/10
To be enjoyed like a long, rambling fantasy novel -- not like a punchy action flick (though it is sometimes also that).
I had never heard of Sparks, and I am not sure if I had ever heard their music. After watching this film I am now obsessed with them! This movie is a Must See!
Wow, the buildings were amazing. I would've chosen :mushroom: though.
Well, now I know what it would look like if BoJack Horseman was real…and naked.
This show had no absolutely no right being as good as it was. What a fantastic surprise this has been.
What the actual f**k. Interesting to say the least. There's definitely some nightmare fuel in there.
Randall is so exhausting. Always have to be the victim or the guy who tell the stories. He loves too much to be the center of attention and seen as perfect.
Beth is suffering from so much little things and the mom syndrome where you have to look after everyone. So difficult to conjugue that with your own ambition.
I had to watch it twice to see if I missed any redeeming qualities it had. In actuality, it made the entire movie worse. Do yourself a favor and don't see it, don't watch it, and don't acknowledge it exists.
FUCKING AWESOME!
The Lost Boys is kind of a ridiculous and cheesy film, but it’s still a fucking masterpiece! Probably the only good vampire movie I have ever seen. The film’s aesthetic!! cries So beautiful!! Some great 80s actors involved in the film. AMAZING soundtrack! The Doors fits in with The Lost Boys so perfectly smooth. The movie’s theme song “Cry Little Sister” is also so chilling and beautiful. The setting of the movie was the perfect choice, and the cave! My god, if only that cave were real, I’d pay good money to go see it.
The Lost Boys is a typical vampire movie, however it still touches on comedy, drama, and is kind of a coming-of-age film, where trying to discover self-identity is involved. It is an extremely well-built film. And man, is it stylish!
Please watch this film instead of that cheesy ass romantic bullshit film called Twilight.
Wow, where to start? It's a sweet story about love, but the 1960s incredible sexist viewpoints are unbearable. The strong-willed female commissioner was overtaken by a being that just wanted a man to love her (and of course, "the concept of male and female is a constant throughout the galaxy"). Ugh. Redeemed somewhat by the ending. Zephram Cochrane was far more interesting in First Contact.
The weaker it gets, the louder it gets. The less creative it gets, the busier it gets. And it was very loud and very busy.
