On the surface this film is about a group of people who have been labelled “villains”, working together to save the world. But really, this film is about one man and one man alone, he isn’t strong, but yet he defies all odds and sacrifices his life to save his friends. His only power is his bravery, he is the driver of the van and the main character of this film, Milton.
It is really frightening for me to see how many of the people here see this as a happy ending.
I guess technology and the hedonistic neoliberalism have found its way already into our minds.
Weren't you atleast concerned about the talk they had about people "doing everything to atleast feel something" in this sadomaso / groupsex facility? About 80-85% being already dead? About a huge technology company owning us even after our deaths? Just for the sake of hedonistic, fake emotions disguised as only what it is: binary codes?
This was, for me atleast, one of the darkest endings of any Black Mirror episode ever. It shows you exactly what the neoliberalistic idea has already done to us and will eventually still do in the future (and I thank the director and makers of Black Mirror so much for it! One of the best episodes of this show so far)
I wish they would follow the book, rather than buy the rights to the book, then throw it all away and just make up new stuff which is apparently what they have done.
Justin Long using the rape dungeon as an opportunity to boost his listing square footage is the most realistic portrayal of an AirBnB host I’ve ever seen.
dina and noaf i love u girlies <3
The first Pixar movie that I ever cried for, maybe it was the beautiful art, the compelling story or the fact that I was being represented on tv, no I'm not a sea monster, but if you replace all of the times that "sea monster" was said in this film and instead use "gay" you'll get what I mean. Hat's off to the writers, I could go on and on about how perfect the parallels are but I'll just have to silenzio bruno!!
Barbara and Bruce? Why? Makes no goddamn sense and completly changes Batmans motivations.
Natasha Lyonne (Orange is the New Black, American Pie) is trapped in a Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadooloop until she learns to swim, and catches the rhythm of the strokes..... COMPLETELY clichéd, but oddly watchable, if only for the creative ways she keeps managing to off herself, in spite of desperately trying not to.
Unfairly compared to the wonderful 'Freaks and Geeks,' and criticised because of it, this series deserves to stands on its own. Funny, heartfelt, sweet and moving, this portrays real feelings amongst a group of high school kids in a mostly unsentimental way. Looking forward to the next season.
Less is more, it’s also for true for TV Series. Nothing ”outstanding” must happen for everything to fall in place with extraordinary grace and perfection.
Short but intense comedy. Not to be missed.
Oh hello there Mr. Shakycam - I hate you.
Calvin is a genuinely bad person. I give the narrative credit for letting Ruby be an actual person and not just a MPDG before Calvin began tinkering with her, but they undercut that by giving him hope in the end.
Surreal, psychedelic nonsense that somehow takes an interesting idea, game cast, and state of the art effects to make a tedious, dull bowel movement of a film. Now that's talent. If you thought Dark Tower was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet. 2/10
Slow and completely ridiculous. How did Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly & Emma Watson get themselves involved in the crap.
i love me a strip club
Really very good. I was surprised. The only flaw is that I prefer an unhappy ending.
starring Sebastian Stan as Armie Hammer
Overlong, inconsistent and definitely style over substance but I still really enjoy this entertaining dark comedy/romance. It's cute, unconventional, suspenseful, darkly funny, and I didn't expect it to be this campy. The genres mash together in unexpected ways, and performances really drive this one. I can't believe I'm saying this but the highlight of this film was Sebastian Stan. I would recommend going into this film knowing as little as possible.
Rather unusual for an 80s film with gay characters in that nobody gets or dies of AIDS. It's not even depressing.
It’s a lot like the first one.
It’s kinda trashy and childish, and it’ll probably make you cringe at least a few times, but it can’t help to be fun occasionally.
Tom Hardy clearly enjoyed himself making it, Woody Harrelson is fine.
The action is alright, but the production value is awful, the whole visual look is dated and cheap.
Like, this was shot by Quentin Tarantino’s DP, but you’ll never be able to tell that because of the production choices made by Sony.
The plot itself is very thin, uninspired and mostly forgettable.
Everything about it is extremely disposable, and the whole thing just screams ‘streaming movie’ to me.
You really don’t need to waste your money on this by watching it on a premium format.
4/10
I've seen worse. But it's not good, and it doesn't remotely resemble the source material. It's a PG-13 comfortably dumb movie and it suffers from its shackles. Carnage is hammy and goofy rather than sadistic and maniacal. Not recommended.
"i say give me dong... or give me death"
If people go in expecting "haha funny" all of the time, they'll be disappointed. It's a good show by the end (picks up steam around episode 5) but nothing like Futurama or The Simpsons, so I can see how it can be misleading if you go in with that expectation.
My main problem with it is what other people seem to like: the drawing style. I'm not even sure I can explain it, it just doesn't do anything for me.
The characters are what seems closer to Groening's previous works. You'll like most of them once you get to know them, with their quirks being decisive in it most of the time.
If feels like it was too short of a season as well, so I guess that's one more thing on the pros column. I definitely would like to see more ASAP!
The opening of the first season SLAPS, and the second seasons opening is pretty good too. I plan on finishing Season 2 today, so I'm not sure how it ends but I thoroughly enjoyed watching this anime. The facial expressions are fun and the plot, while not heavy or super serious, is kind of wild. Some of the games they play don't make sense as gambling games, but considering that the idea of a gambling school is rather absurd, it's kind of funny. The only minor issue I have is that this anime is definitely very fanservice-y, if you aren't into that.
Brilliant writing, brilliant acting. Brilliant.
This is the most fucked up show I've ever seen, and that's saying a lot. Highly recommended.
A true adaptation of the manga, Devilman is a series following two boys (Ryo and Akira) and their lives after Ryo takes Akira to a Sabbath party and encourages him to be possessed by a demon in the ensuing bloodshed.
The story is quite simple and previous iterations have not been as good, but this series is dark and touching. The animation style is unusual but attractive and suits the themes very well. It's spooky seeing how people act after they have become part demon and the turning points in the series were truly gripping and made me cry out in response.
Definitely worth a watch but be warned there is a lot of violence and sex.
Butterfly guy is dead... So sad, I really liked him. I actually like all the rappers, hope they don't die.
