This move should’ve been called: Janet Van Dyne’s Adventures in Star Warsmania.
Quantum Physics has so many incredible theories and hypothesis that could be explored and Marvel decided to take us to some random Star Wars planet / galaxy.
The jokes weren’t even that funny.
It's been a long time since I haven't been hooked on a Spanish show like I'm with this one. Very well produced with a great script and actors.
Seriously, I can’t understand why people complain about this show. I thought the pilot was cool. Quite fun and entertaining, in the best spirit of the original comic.
This is one of those films that, after watching the trailer, you think it’s gonna be quite shitty, but you watch anyway because you like the actors and the director has made one or two decent films, but once the action starts, you tell yourself… yep! It’s a shitty film. I should’ve trusted my gut feeling.
Just coming out of the Madrid premiere. Mmm… I really wanted to like it, but I’m afraid it’s messy at times and many lines are cringeworthy. There’s way too much exposition in the first act. It’s supposed to be brutal but they make the constant joke that Adam kills indiscriminately and in the end the joke gets kinda tiring. But it’s true that Dwayne Johnson was born to play Black Adam. My favorite was Doctor Fate and even Hawkman, despite his obnoxious black and white view of heroes and villains. I don’t even know why he’s the leader of the JSA. But his wings are something else!
Cyclone and Atom Smasher… a bit forgettable.
The post credit scene… it’ll make everything worthwhile.
I’ve watched the first episode and didn’t even bother checking it in. I was literally waiting to see some hardcore sex scenes because this show looks EXACTLY like one of those “high budget” XXX films. The costumes, the VFX, the story, the acting… everything screams porn movie, except that there’s no porn. So… what’s the point? I’ve always wondered what the pitch of TV shows like this one are like, that there are people who actually think it could be a great idea.
Take it from me… I’m Venezuelan. This second season is an absolute waste of time. I can accept that it was entirely filmed in Colombia, but the story and the way they portray Venezuelan culture is preposterous. It’s evident they didn’t do ANY research. Reyes’ accent is all over the place, at times he sounds Colombian and at others, he sounds Cuban. It’s just lame, lame, lame.
I gotta be honest. I saw this because of Scarlett Johansson... but not even because she was in the film did I enjoy it. This movie is BORING... like that... in all caps. The raging hard-ons made me chuckle, though. I guess I should’ve watched a trailer before.
Just finished watching M3GAN, and it was an absolute letdown. The film suffers from one-dimensional characters, making it difficult to connect with their stories. The plot is disappointingly predictable, with no real twists or surprises.
M3GAN had the potential to be a thought-provoking exploration of AI dangers, but instead, it offers a superficial take on the subject. The film barely delves into the ethical and societal implications, leaving the audience wanting more.
The pacing and suspense are also subpar, making it hard to stay engaged throughout the movie. To make matters worse, the visual effects don't meet the standards set by other films in the genre.
M3GAN could have been a captivating sci-fi thriller, but it falls short in delivering a meaningful experience. A missed opportunity, indeed.
Boring, boring, boring… by the way… arepas ARE NOT Colombian. What a waste of time.
It’s not that bad when get inside the story. I had low expectations but I was happy to see how Lana managed to make sense of how things evolved. I feel, in general, the story advanced and even opened new ways in which the story can continue. They even made fun of the studio and themselves. I like it when moviemakers don’t take themselves so seriously. They knew it was difficult to continue with the old plots and characters, so the had to make do with what they had. I did enjoy it.
This show is freaking joke… hahahaha such bad writing, bad acting… I don’t even know where to begin. The protagonist is a freaking disaster, she doesn’t even know what she wants to do with her life. I guess majoring in Psychology didn’t help her that much. I can’t even believe I went through all the episodes. And the ending? It’s the cherry on top. It’s an absolute WASTE OF TIME!
I’ve only watched two episodes and I’m hooked. While the acting isn’t the most salient thing about it, the characters are all very strong. I like the way in which the story unfolds around them. Maybe it’s because I’m also a teacher, and I’ve seen many things shown in the series. I think it’s a bold series that isn’t afraid to tackle a very complicated issue.
There’s a fine line between smart jokes and cheap play with stereotypes. The way the French are portrayed is simplistic and almost insulting. First episode and it’s the last for me.
I think it’s quite an enjoyable film. Despite its downs, it fulfills its purpose, which is to entertain, and it’s definitely NOT the worst movie of the year, as I read somewhere. I guess the movie is centered in the relationship between Daryl and Nick and the story develops from then on. I wish Ayer had delved a bit more in the mythology of the film, but if Netflix decides to give this film a sequel, it can be the main attractive.
Oh boy, where do I start? “Smile” is a queasy, nasty horror-melodrama from first-time feature director Parker Finn. It’s shot in a dull, blank, subdued light into which hallucinations and supernatural incursions can insinuate themselves without warning. Sosie Bacon (Kevin’s daughter) plays Dr. Rose Cotter, a consultant psychiatrist who has chosen to work in the most challenging environment possible: a hospital ER in which patients are invariably at their most violent and troubled. But let’s be real here, her acting is as convincing as a politician’s promise during an election campaign.
The movie’s influences are certainly detectable: we are admittedly close to It Follows and The Ring territory. It could have been the kind of sinister flick that follows you home, slipping through the door, up the stairs, and curling up deep inside your head, daring you to sleep. Instead, Smile feels as disposable as a candy wrapper. And let’s not forget about the dialogue. It’s as cringeworthy as a dad joke told at a funeral. In short, if you’re looking for a good horror movie to watch, keep looking. This one will leave you with nothing but disappointment and regret.
What did I just watch? Definitely not my type of film. Boring and nonsense AF.
Haven't read the book (or books) but if they're remotely similar to this movie, then the author should consider retiring. The story has all the tropes you would expect from a CW show (including the terrible CGI). Obnoxious characters, bad acting, obvious references to the HP saga... I could only watch for like 30 minutes and its runtime still had two more hours! No way, Jose. Charlize... Girl! What did you see in this script?
I’m not even going to check it in.
The first episode lasts 19 minutes and I could only get to see 14 minutes. I told myself “it’s not even 20 min”, if it’s bad, I won’t continue. But no… not even that. Really… bad…
I honestly thought it was going to be way worse… better than Venom 2 it is… I wouldn’t watch it again but at least the effects are good. It reminded me of the way Alex Mercer flies in Prototype… if a Morbius game came out, I’d play it!
I swear… I had no idea it was written and directed by Roland Emmerich… halfway through the film, I tell me husband: “don’t you think this movie is like a hodgepodge of Emmerich’s apocalyptic films?”… the same shitty formula, lame pep talks and trashy plot line.
I promise I didn’t know it was by him, otherwise I wouldn’t even have entertained the idea of watching it. What a waste of money…
The second season starts off well. The group of teens poses a bigger challenge than the first season, but… there’s always a but. The episodes go from bad to worse. By the end of the season, the story loses its course and the writers even include earthquakes. Dunno, I almost didn’t even care how it ended.
The show’s ok. As a stand-alone series, it isn’t very strong, but just because it’s connected to the MCU, it automatically becomes better. By the way, I truly hope that the musical stays in this series… good lord! It’s cringeworthy!
I thought it was gonna be worse than I had expected. That alone deserves a 5, the extra point comes from some character development and their moral dilemmas. The rest is just boring stuff… there were quite a few things that bothered me… silly things like why create an Eternal with hearing impairment, I wish they’d included her impairment as part of the story. Don’t know… something like… she decided to go silent because of… whatever. Some of them had pretty useless powers… creating illusions? Really? Ajak’s healing factor was ok, but her death happened so stupidly. It’s also very slow… I did enjoy some of the battles and a little more.
I have a serious problem with films that depart from an ethical question, such as “who must die to save the others?”. Basically because writers usually pose the most difficult circumstances and situations for the characters to face. This makes it hard for me to really connect with the story. The acting doesn’t help either. What’s more, writers’ not knowing much about how things work in space makes me angry. They conveniently have the spaceship provide artificial gravity and the crew back on earth are incapable of predicting when a solar storm will occur or are so inept that they can’t anticipate problems with the life support system, like having just enough oxygen for three people and not four. Some writer do abuse of Murphy’s Law.
I saw this in a private screening thanks to Warner Spain. I believe this is an improvement to the previous installment of the franchise. Just so everybody knows, it has all the elements and characters to give you the feel that it’s a sequel without being a sequel. James Gunn took what worked in SQ and gave it more color. Think of this film as the over-the-top violence that you’ve always wanted to see in Guardians of the Galaxy. It’s got comedy, blood, jokes, and the chemistry between the characters is fantastic. Each one has their moment to shine and show their skills.
My least favorite character was Harley, maybe because there wasn’t much development or that her scenes were a bit shoehorned. The music was quite inconsistent, I know it’s a Gunn trademark but with Guardians there’s more consistency and coherence.
John Cena’s Peacemaker has some hilarious moments, as well as King Shark… they were my favorites.
The movie is quite enjoyable and the action is a visual feast with all the graphic violence you’d expect from the Suicide Squad.
You'll see that it's definitely a movie based on a play: 4 characters in a single space (an apartment) and a lot of verbal exchanges. And that's my only qualm, I believe that a film gives you much more to play with, meaning that's free of all the limitations of a play with a live audience. I haven't seen the play, so I can't compare which one is better. That aside, I think it's a clever story with lots of things that may resonate with many couples, whether gay or straight. What I do appreciate is the level of maturity in which the topics were handled. The comedic moments do stand out, and the actors' performances are a delight.
I don’t even know how I convinced myself to watch this first episode. It’s a hello and goodbye for me. Clark and Lois have no frigging clue about being parents. They raised an almost spoiled brat who treats his twin brother horribly, and Clark has no idea how to talk to the other teenage son who has an important mental condition. I mean, after 14 years and someone as clever as sups doesn’t know how to raise a family?
I’m sorry, but I see no chemistry between Superman/Lois and the teens. They’re a step away from being quite a dysfunctional family. The writing and the lines are just awful... After being raised by the Kents as an incredible person, Clark is borderline pathetic as a father. I didn’t feel the values that he learned from papa Kent.
One son is the stereotypical jock and the other is the stereotypical angsty teen, which really gets on my nerves.
After all, it’s a CW show... you can’t ask for much.
The movie lasts 1 hour 35 mins approximately and it felt like 4 hours of garbage. What an awful film!
