There are demons and other supernatural beings, sure, but I don't think this show was titled for that.
The real and true EVIL is represented by those four girls chaotically shrieking every time they get even a second of screen time.
Umbrella Academy gets 4 seasons (the first 2 were the exact same story) and this get cancelled? This deserved better.
It is a shame that this was canceled already. I really enjoyed the first season.
What the heck were the Netflix execs thinking when they binned this?? This was a really promising saga
Well, I've made my comments in a couple of episodes. Just want to say the overall show is very well written, it starts quiet and slow, the mistery unfolds episode after episode at the right rhythm, forcing the viewer to an inevitable binge watching. This is what makes a good TV series.
Why is this only listing 12 episodes instead of 15? Tsubasa Cat parts 3-5 are missing currently.
[EDIT: If anyone else was confused like me, Parts 3-5 were ONAs and are under the Specials category]
A masterpiece, watched it recently and still holds up, not only cerebral in its clever structure but also profound in its portrayal of unresolving grief and denial as a coping mechanism.
Bitten is an interesting dark comedy about vampires. The story follows a paramedic who rescues a beaten woman who’s covered in blood and left for dead, but after nursing her back to health he discovers that she’s a vampire. The cast includes Jason Mewes, Erica Cox, and Richard Fitzpatrick, who all deliver fair performances. The story is kind of clever and has some interesting satire about relationships. However, the directing is subpar and the plot’s a bit ineffective. Though it’s a troubled film, Bitten has some smart commentary and some good laughs.
A C-class movie, a weak story that cover its gaps with "scenes". It's a pity for Bill, because he's the only one standing out there.
Well, other shows would have had a dramatic action-driven showdown episode of epic proportions, but for The Americans this would have been a gross misrepresentation of everything that the show is all about. So they went with a small finale, where the world changes for the Jennings but the rest of the world doesn't notice. They got out, they won, and they lost everything.
There's just so much unexplained here. Too much. Which makes the entire movie pretty useless.
How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!
To those who are confused: The film is about writer's block. There are two parts,both her attempts in the movie she is writing in her book.
The first story she wrote ends when she sees a bear and gets into an accident. The second part is also her story, which is a variation of her first story but it's more intricate. Once her character stumbles in on husband having an affair, she sees a bear which symbolises the end of second story like before.
The bear is her metaphor for writer's block. Hence the title "The Black Bear".
why was Cahya repeatedly putting the cup of M&Ms into Gabe's hand before realizing he wanted her to pour the M&Ms into his hand so damn funny
Would it be possible to distinguish between Top Gear AS WAS vs the new imposter. I don't want to not have Top Gear on my watchlist but I also don't want to be reminded of "new" episodes.
Werewolves Within is an incredibly charming whodunnit horror comedy that offers tons of fun and it's apparently based on a video game. It's so clever, quirky, and tight. The horror and comedy elements blend together really well. The editing style feels very snappy, giving me similar vibe to Edgar Wright's work. You get nice amount of gore, suspense, and mystery. The wacky cast radiates good energy into the film and delivers zero bad performances. Sam Richardson is great as a lead performer and I really like the chemistry between him and Milana Vayntrub. I wish this film leans towards the horror elements a bit more but overall I had a really fun time. Josh Ruben continues to impress me with this film, I'm looking forward to see his upcoming project!
Haven still beats all these
Unlike the other comments, I find this enthralling and very watchable - very different from the usual American fare which I've stopped watching almost entirely. It may go on a little too long - I'm in the middle of the 2nd series - but some person below said that 'if the Brits were doing it, it would be one series and very watchable'. Mm. The Brits are good, most of the time - and when they get it right, they are absolutely spectacular. But most of the stuff on UK TV is total crap.
i hate the fact they cancelled this show...
The movie starts off rather loosely, with blurred characters and coarse, almost clumsy realization. As the film progresses, it is clear that everything is intentional and prepares you for the evolution of the whole towards a second part of the film, which can only be described as prodigious. Really spectacular and totally essential.
This one is absolutely masterclass from David Lynch. I highly recommend it to everyone. Although not everyone(and by that I mean a whole lot of people) will get it in first viewing, including myself and I have no shame in admitting I understood it on YouTube. But such is the genius of the movie.
The first part of the movie is slow to build up and is confusing, but believe me, it is intended. It is riddled with symbolism and visual cues which aids the viewer in second half of the movie which is full of revelations.
This movie is a dream (literally) lived out.
Believe the movie when it says that everything is illusion.
This was my first Lynch movie. I was too young to get it back then. Now that I'm older, and I've seen more than traditional Hollywood movies, I see why this is considered as a masterpiece.
Boring? Confusing? Poorly edited? This definitely isn't for squares who like to be spoon fed with answers.
"Mulholland Drive" is by far the most complete expression of David Lynch's cinema. It has everything that made his films memorable but still manages to be accessible for most viewers (you will need to rewatch a couple of times, but at least we are far from the apparent close-to-nonsense of "Inland Empire"). A lot of people claim that the last 45 minutes prevented the film from becoming a real masterpiece and made it confusing for the sake of it, but it's quite the opposite. Surely the unsettling and surreal atmosphere that permeates the film is valuable, but those last 45 minutes are the ones that give a real weight and meaning to so many details and lines. They are essential to save the first half from being just a cheesy mystery movie with a unique atmosphere.
It has been one of my favorite movies for ages, but it took me over fifteen years to finally relate to the character. I guess I am finally old enough to feel the bitter taste of failure and self-delusion.
The point of the whole series dies in this episode.
Kanbaru is so hilarious! No doubt she's my favorite character :)
I guess movies revolving around dinner parties with lots of paranoia are my thing. Kind of a similar set up to Coherence (highly recommend) but completely different at the same time. This seemed a bit more personal.
Extremely tense throughout, I loved it.
This is such a weird and interesting movie. This goes from an off beat rom-com to something much darker. I enjoyed the tone change and I didn't go into this wanting to question the laws of physics but just let the story unfold. You will enjoy this much more if you suspend your beliefs in the laws of nature. Anne Hathaway was great and I enjoyed Jason Sudeikis for the most part even though his character started acting like a dick.
One of the worst horror movies I've seen in a while.
There are some good ideas in here, and Karen Gillan is incredible as always, but unfortunately the script needed more work. Good set up but the story doesn't really go anywhere.
The second part of the film was an enjoyable, ruthless, bloody killfest, but the rest of the film was pretty unpleasant.
I understand the unpleasantness is part of the story, but it was very graphic and lasted far too long.
Worth seeing once, but due to the rape scene, I probably wouldn’t watch it again.
