The movie that propably had the most impact on my life.
I was little over 10 at the time I saw it first. My dad brought it home on VHS. From the first second my eyes were glued to the screen. Immediately after it was over I rewound the tape and watched it again which up to today, close to 35 later, I haven´t done with any other movie. I recorded it on audio tape so I could listen to it, even wrote down the whole thing on paper (that was well before the internet, folks). We re-ennacted the scenes, I had memorized every line. I cannot recall how many times I`ve seen it since then.
I would give it 11 if possible.
I liked better the first part of the movie than the second half. It began as a good story with good character construction but then many absurd things happened and I lost insterest.
Visual effects are great though, I think by the time it was released they looked pretty good, although not all of them aged well.
This movie had changed my look to everything, literally, everything.
Proved that climate change exists. We have to come up with something. Do you really want "After the Flood"?
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! Loved it a little less than I thought I would, but loved it nevertheless.
I forgot how much I loved this film.
best movie of all time \m/
It really lived up to the hype. I wish I could of seen this live with the original cast.
I wish more musicals would get released like this after their runtime in theaters for people like me who have no way to see them live.
A great documentary about the life and work of Howard Ashman. Very well documented and with a well-constructed narrative... It would have been better if it weren't a slide of photos and videos. Seeing the people talking might have helped with the delivery of the documentary.
You miss the songs. I think this is a movie that could have had some awesome songs and not bad songs like Mulan. Still it was a really fun ride with really good world building. There's a lot of room to expand and explore. As an example we never talked about Raya's prejudices of the other lands directly even though the movie implies a lot to do with it. But this is a movie about saving the world not living in it and I can definitely respect this film for having a tight scope and keeping inside of it. Even though we take the left at the fork it's the fact that the right looks real that makes it feel like a decision and everything in Raya feels like part of a real story. Each of these characters feel like they could have their own stories that are half fleshed out already.
I decided to watch this movie after watching the trailer, not because the movie looked good but because it looked like complete trash and I seem to enjoy torturing myself. I don't know why I continue to do this to myself but I have to admit that this movie actually exceeded my expectations for how garbage it was going to be.
The story-line felt like it was put together by a 5 year old and any embers of character development were stomped out before it could ignite leaving the characters bland. The acting felt incredibly forced and the gaps in reasoning astonished me, if you're satisfied with characters doing or acting in a way "just because" then you might enjoy this or might be more inclined to get the crew from this shit-show to work on your next production, I'm not judging, you do you.
That being said, my god I hope there is a sequel because I want to see if they can top just how spectacularly awful this was.
So Pixar are just gonna give me a film with sea monster as allegory for being gay and expect me not to develop an insane attachment to it? This is really really a happy place for me. One day we’ll have the real thing, but for now we have Luca:green_heart:
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!!
Are you here looking for reviews to see if the movie is good?
Just say Silenzio Bruno!! and immediately watch this movie
Seeing a film that's won the Palme d'or at Cannes or Best Picture Oscar is like drinking a bottle of ridiculously expensive wine: with every sip you ask yourself over and over again if it deserves the price. Fortunately, Parasite is so good you won't be drinking very long because you'll be drunk on its power soon enough.
A film that crosses genres so many times it leaves a permanent mark, Parasite is a clever story performed wonderfully and directed to perfection.
Don't watch this before scheduled surgery, it'll eff you right on up.
this concept has so much potential, too bad the execution was mild.
The idea is cute: a boy of mixed Jewish/Muslim heritage reconciles the two sides of his family with food. Unfortunately, the story is very much paint-by-numbers, and the beats are ultra-predictable. The cultural conflict is also presented in a pretty patronizing way. Additionally, the entire movie rests on Abe's parents being extremely tone-deaf to the interests of their kid, and said kid unabashedly lying to them about going to work for an adult on the other side of town.
Noah Schnapp was pretty good, though, aside from the forced teenager lingo. #FellowKids
I watched this BECAUSE it looked like a Knives Out knock-off. That being said, I was hoping it would be one of those movies that are so bad they're good, but this was just one of those cringe lukewarm movies that is just plain painful to sit through. Each and every plot point is seen coming from TWO miles away, and every plot TWIST could barely be considered a twist if it can't even turn me around 90 degrees, let alone 180. The only reason I made it through the whole thing was because I watched it with my friend (shoutout to you Jeriah for putting up with me when I get the random urge to watch dumb stuff like this LMAO).
Better than I expected. The scenarios have big gap, but overall it is better than most competitors
Conceptually good, with some neat special effects that belie the low budget. However, the acting kinda sucked, and the script wasn't that hot. It felt like a pilot for a tv show at times, which while not a bad thing, certainly isn't what I expected after the rave reviews on this page.
Surprisingly good. This was by far the best Low Budget movie I have seen in a long time. It actually had a good ending which most movie lack now a days.
I'm not entirely sure how to rate it. As a film, in its artfulness, it was nice, but that is visually speaking. I would give a shout out for people with similar issues as me, whatever those might be, but I don't do too well with films in which the main characters are utterly disbelieved and declared insane by their surroundings as it happens here rather soon.
And whatever universe she's living in, it is terrible. How can she only be surrounded by so many uncaring, heartless characters? The only good person was evidently her co-worker, everyone else was actually just really overwhelmed/scared/cold-hearted. Which hurt to see. And they are being so while being utterly passive. It's like they're villains toward the main character, but not written as villains. Which makes it harder to dislike them, or harder to argue why they are bad people. So even the viewer gets this sense of manipulation or that you're the one not right in the head, as the majority seems to have such clear and different views from you.
I realise my comment this time around lacks eloquence, but I hope it gets across what I meant to express.
i wouldn't classify this as science fiction as there's no definitive proof for anything occurring within the setting. not enough screen time for the poor horse considering it's a movie titled horse girl tbh.
most importantly: i would watch the tv series within this movie in a HEARTBEAT i mean its flawless procedural trash very clearly making fun of supernatural. when is netflix gonna make that??
The kind of film where you say, "I liked it....................." and then add tons of dots after.
While I loved the overall ambiance of the film and impending sense of dread, I could've done without the moments which were so jarring they were comical, and so absurd the felt silly. These scenes dragged me out of the film and doused my fear.
Spike Jonze really outdid himself with that one, he took some of the principles that made Eternal Sunshine such a great movie and applied them to a new technology idea. It's not a technical story or a story from a worldwide perspective, it's about the impact it has on one human, and it's told beautifully.
Also, I'd really like to see it from the software vendors perspective, I think there were some fun conversations an that side too. :D
Brilliant movie.
I put it off for so long thinking it would be just another spectacle film with brilliant visuals and a lacking story. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it it was just all round good.
This movie fucking sucks my dick.
I'd rather watch my own shit float around in the toilet than watch this fucking mess of a movie.
