The first two episodes were fantastic. It's silly to compare this to game of thrones or hotd considering how antithetical the source materials are to one another. The trailers and character posters looked like they had some spotty cgi and tacky costumes but it all looks stunning in this nearly billion dollar first season. It's already better than any of the hobbit movies and im wildly excited for whats to come after tempered expectations before watching.
I am a. bit torn about this movie. It was interesting but somehow a bit flat. But still somehow good enough.
Wow.
Just got back from the cinemas. I think the movie is great.
The mix of humor, action and darkness and some really good twists.
The last 10 minutes are also perfect. Everyone was shocked.
The Marvel Universe becomes transcendental. It doesn't veer far from the Marvel formula but it is hugely entertaining and Cumberbatch is terrific, as usual.
Strangely, there are echoes of some of the lesser superhero movies within. Green Lantern, Elektra and 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer share similarities. Obviously, Doctor Strange is better than all of them and takes the superhero genre into a new, fantastical realm.
How to Train Your Dragon meets Pirates of the Caribbean meets Luca. Beautiful animation, good story and cool monster designs I wanted to see more of them. That purple crab thing was amazing!
A rather predictable but fun watch, good pacing that left me entertained for the duration of the movie, thoroughly enjoyed it. 7/10.
The sad thing is that the premise and the idea are interesting, a very exploitable, but the way facts unfold... well, the plot is very shallow and superficial, expecially in the second half.
I confess that I had all the best expectations to see this film, which had a very good cast and an excellent theme. The beginning was good, the presentation of the cast and the plot, but in the middle it lost its meaning, the climax was not well approached. From that point on, he lost breath and speed, with a lukewarm end and no conclusion.
One of the most absurd scripts that have been written in recent Spanish cinema. The protagonist is a shy young man who nevertheless embarks on a hectic night that makes no sense. The director tries to give strength to the flimsy story through nightly long shots close to the main character, and manages to convey the suffocation of his experience. But that is not enough to balance an aimless narrative.
God I want a second season already... Binged the first in a day and just want to see what happens!
Pretty basic writing/storyline but it doesn’t matter because it’s real and resonates. The acting is good enough to carry the story and the special moments and interactions with Simon keep you wanting more. 2nd season needed!!
SPECTACULAR!!! Spot on casting, authentic setting, faithful to the original book, wonderful acting, moving and joy filled drama. CBC on Sunday nights. I give it a 9 (superb) out of 10, only because I should probably see 2 episodes before granting it the 10 that I very much anticipate it will deserve. I feel as superlative as Anne. YAY!
I came into this series not having read the book/s so it was all so very new and refreshing to me. And I liked that. I fell totally in love with Anne and Green Gables. I wallowed in every rise and fall (and rise again) of emotions I experienced while watching this series.
Sometimes, we need a little touch of inspiration in the midst of a television era steeped in violence and hopeless situations. ♥
OH, but THAT ending, though~! I am going to cry if this series does not come back for a second season to resolve THAT!
Definitely one of the bests shows I've watched in my entire life. All the characters are so specials and the emotions, oh... I lost count of how many times I cried, smiled, loved. I'm really loving this show and hoping to see a season 2.
