The reason I don't like documentaries is that they aren't enough like this one. No narrator, no melodrama, just authentic home videos and interviews with the people involved. A must-watch if you saw the film Foxcatcher.
I loved the conversational scene between the cops and everyone else. I’m really impressed by this film.
I'm a huge fan of the sport and Halle Barry so I was really looking forward to this one. MMA movies don't really have a good track record apart from Warrior. This movie is not the exception either, unfortunately.
Halle is good, but that's like calling water wet. A satisfactory performance is not enough to save this very below-average drama. It's a tired plot we've seen a million times before with a predictable ending.
I liked seeing Valentina Shevchenko in it and she should get more roles.
Why do we need another suicide squad movie?
I missed an action TV show like this since banshee
That was boring again, well, until the last 5 minutes or so but Ellie sure did fuck them up.
Is it just me or is there some circlejerk going on at Disney where they keep using the same group of actors over and over again for their different brands? Just stop using Taika Waititi already.
The movie itself is pretty whatever.
It reminded me a lot of Onward; you could do a lot worse, but it probably won’t be remembered within the broader Pixar catalogue.
Not a lot of depth or subtext with this one, it’s a pretty straight forward adventure (which is also fine of course).
Some good animation (lots of visual ideas are being pulled from Star Wars), decent voice acting, fine characters, story’s alright.
It’s kinda inoffensive and doesn’t really warrant some of the extreme reactions it’s gotten.
The whole ‘woke’ label is baffling to me, it just seems like a smokescreen certain people use to cover up for their own homophobia, which only emphasizes how the word ‘woke’ carries little to no meaning nowadays.
Any regular person will be fine watching this, regardless of their political leaning.
Ffs, it’s mass entertainment after all.

I just want to thank the cinema gods for this absolute dream. It feels like I passed out and when I came to I could remember a very good and satisfying Batman film.
Evan Peters plays a crazy, psychotic serial killer a little too well.
On a scale of 1 to ridiculous, I'd rate this f**kin bonkers! Even our teenager was calling out some of the stunts as nonsense.
It's as if the Producers said, "We want a cross between Fast and Furious, Highlander, and the Matrix." Sadly, Mark doesn't disappear into the character like Keanu or Christopher did and all I can see is "Marky Mark" performing the same role he always does. He becomes a distraction to the overall story and that's too bad because this had the potential to be what everyone wants these days, a "Franchise".
Oh well, I guess everything really is a remix.
i think he Murdaughed his wife lol
You know how adding some elements of cheese to a popular movie or song can add human charm to the end product? Well, this goes so far into kitsch territory that it basically feels like an unintentional parody of Hollywood action filmmaking. In theory that’s fine, for example I think Riki-oh is a lot of fun. However, watching RRR is essentially like watching Eurovision for 3 hours. To some people think that sounds like fun, for me it’s absolute torture. Not only is this excessively sentimental and corny, but the plastic visuals and atrocious acting also leave a lot to be desired. Sometimes it’ll strike upon a cool moment that will satisfy your inner 12 year old, but because the overall experience is so lame, I was pretty much bored from beginning to end.
3/10
Just throw logic out the window and enjoy the film as it is. Lots of religious symbolism and torture sequences. But really well made. Amazing cinematography minus the obligatory flying fight scenes. Some hilarious scenes and very clean no vulgarity.
One summer in high school i went to the theater almost everyday for a week to watch this movie.
Loved it, Watched it more than twice for sure.
I am easy to impress. David Attenborough and BBC is enough for me.
Maybe the experience is different if you're American and/or you have no prior knowledge of what was going on in Gitmo (we been knew), but this movie -- while not too bad -- was not as good as it could have been.
The script takes middle-of-the-road approach and never really goes for the jugular. Sure, we can call the onscreen depictions of torture "brave" but it's not like it is the first movie to do so. The tone was confusing, there was a lot of jokes for a story that's about inhumane torture. I don't know what function the dream scenes were supposed to perform in the movie, some of them were disorienting, which I suppose is intentional to demonstrate Mo's mental state, but I wonder if they were necessary at all.
The acting was great though, I have no misgivings about the acting. I've always liked Tahar Rahim, but the poor guy is really typecast in America, in Europe they trust him with roles that have nothing to do with his background, because he's just that good.
Rosario Dawson crushed it as Ahsoka Tano - call me a fan of the character now. I'm still not sure Dave Filoni can direct live action as well as everyone else hopes, but boy can definitely produce and write well. Episode could have lost at least 5 minutes.
Name drops of Thrawn, hints to Anakin. Season 2 has done a great job with world building. I don't know where Season 2 is leading to and who else we may meet along the way or at the end. And that's exciting.
Also - I have no issues with the name of The Child. It's growing on me.
A really good story of the complexities of family and coming to terms with your past and reconciling that with your present and future. The struggle of loving what you are and who your people are while realizing the deep flaws of humanity.
A really, really good movie.
I enjoyed this film. Contrary to other comments, I found Shailene Woodley bloody annoying!!
I began watching this show and before I had even noticed, I had watched four episodes in a row! I love it when shows do that to you; when they just grab you and won't let go and, hoo-boy, this one definitely does that!
"you think cornrows make you black? 400 years of oppression makes you black"
Sal Maguta got too cocky for his own jocky; thought he was Rocky, now he's stuck in the locky.
What a blissful set of views and an excellent musical choice putting the creations from Ludovico Einaudi. Highly recommended!
Not a fan of romance but I loved this movie.A good mix of love and sci-fi.
A well-made documentary that follows Mike Peterson and his defense team. It is obviously biased toward them. However from what I could see it did show both the defense and the prosecutions facts and claims throughout the trial, therefore the viewer can still make up their own mind by looking at the facts.
It is pretty clear, to me, that he did not kill his wife. I did even go into this thinking that he was guilty(without much knowledge of the case though) but there were no evidence that, for me, spoke to his guilt in any way or form. And then the absolute incompetence and ill will from the prosecution, police involved and forensic lab workers...?! Baffling.
In case you were wondering if this is an accurate portrayal of what it's like to live on or close to the rez...We live on the Nisqually... they are nailing their roles lol
This is probably a good documentary but I was so distracted by how incredibly stupid she is. She knows he’s messing her but still went along with it. I try to psychoanalyse this but she didn’t seem to have a destructive upbringing or anything, had friends and family and staff who loved her, maybe she was suffering from depression from the first divorce? No idea but I think she is literally and simply stupid. It is SO frustrating. I kept shouting at the tv with my own narrative calling the guy a c:asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol: too many times to actually enjoy the show. She gives both vegans and women a bad name……
