This Anime is just like watching a beautiful poem unfold and progress. Reminds me a great deal of the famous works of Miyazaki.
Forget about dumb isekai and overpowered anime with convoluted power systems, Frieren is the opposite, a calm slow burn slice of life. It's everything you need from a fantasy adventure.
Saw Molly’s Game today and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great dialogue and wonderfully acted. This is Aaron Sorkins directorial debut, and while it was perfect from that aspect it is a great first outing. The movie is long but it’s well paced so it doesn’t feel like it drags, it feels like it needed those 140 minutes to tell the entire story. The scene between Chastain and Costner at the end is definitely one of the best I’ve seen in 2017. I give it this movie 4 out of 5. Go see it if you have a chance.
BO-KATAN!
This was the episode I was waiting for from this season. Finally, we progress a little bit of the season's overarching goal, and we get everyone's suspicions confirmed. Bo-Katan and Ahsoka Tano are coming to the Mandalorian!
Not only this, but we finally get an explanation as to why Mando acts so different compared to those in other Star Wars media (e.g. Star Wars: The Clone Wars). He's apart of a Mandalorian clan (cult) who wants to restore the original way of the Mandalore. It all makes sense now.
Seeing him interact with Bo-Katan and think they're fake Mandalorians at first was pretty amusing. It's quite a "fish out of water" moment.
I love this show.
IT'S SO MUCH FUN.
TECHNICAL SCORE: 7/10
ENJOYMENT SCORE: 8/10
A pleasant surprise. Great premise, strong acting and high production value... The story loses focus in the third act, but not too late to garner 9/10.
My name ia Hunter Zolomon and I am the highest Man Alive. When I was a child I saw my father shooting my mother. My father went to prison for her murder. Then I went to an orphanage because nobody wanted me. Then an accident made me the impossible. To the outside World I am an ordinary hero whose name is Jay Garrick, but in secret I kill time remnants to mentally confuse Others and find speedsters like me. One day, I'll find Barry Allen and I'll race him. I am Zoom
I thought I knew what was going on before the credits, but after the credits, no fucking clue.
After 4 episodes: The visuals are unexpectedly beautiful but it suffers quite a lot from typical teen drama bs. But the fantasy world seemes interesting enough for me to keep watching.
Wait... What?
But.. But.. but.. what about that stuff with Ray? He couldn't have done that from within, right?
I'm puzzled......
Visually stunning.
That's about all I have to say about this film. The story line was ridiculous, the acting was less than bearable, and for it's over two hour run time you would think that something would have connected. A random overacted film that could have used a lot more work in the story department.
I stayed for the visuals, but tuned out the story line.
The cinematography is great and dancing all looked fantastic. The score was amazing. The editing and sound design were great. It does a good job of creeping you out. A slow burn until the bat shit crazy third act. I need to see it again to even try and begin to understand what happened but I think I loved it.
Awful effects. Good jokes, bad jokes. No one can save it from drowning in our list of forgettable remakes/reboots.
Oh man the Red Tornado was not well done. He moved like a human trying his best to seem like a robot but not quite getting there. Felt pretty awkward. That aside I hope this ep spells the end of the Kara x James stuff and focuses more on the Supergirl and the character stuff. Really liked the scenes with Cat and the views on how women are perceived/expected to act. Loved the rage heat vision at the end also!
Mixed feelings about this. The show started out good but got worse towards the end. Bit too much teen drama, some parts were just bad acting and the story line didn't live up to it's potential if you ask me.
Anyway, it was worth my time, but nothing special.
The second season is way better than the first, in the first season you think this would be another chick flick with an apocalypse theme, but in the second season the story takes a more serious turn with questions of right and wrong, and what would you do if those who you love were in danger.
