Death of the parents is again at the center of a horror movie. With "Relic" (2020), introduces again the feeling of pain turned into terror within a family. Bertino uses these resources to build an atmosphere that is always unsettling. Apart from some imbalances in its execution, we are facing a solid film that again, as in "The strangers" (2008), builds an external threat that is the mirror of an internal flaw.
A strong independent woman it's not happy until she puts the whole world in danger.
Hmm :thinking: Hate the way have written it so that everyone seems to be down on Clarise. Can only think it's because this way they can make her they female hero.

Story-wise, it's the weakest compared to other MonsterVerse films. This film is more focused about Kong if you're wondering. I couldn't stand that Millie girl, to be fair I wish the human parts would be removed because I only want to see Godzilla & Kong fighting. But it's entertaining to watch.
People gave me a hard time for watching every movie in the Sharknado franchise.
That has NOTHING on this movie and just how bad it is.
At least Sharknado knew it was bad and worked off that. This movie feels as though it thinks its actually serious and a good movie.
JFC. I can’t even.
The horse is our hero. This episode, and series, is a great take on the dangers of blaming people for their ancients' actions.
I suspect Gabi would still be annoying as fuck, even if she wasn't a brainwashed fanatic.
At first, I was disappointed that we weren't getting to see the aftermath of the previous episode, but then I stopped caring because everything about this episode was phenomenal. The acting, the action, the camera work... magnificent. The only thing that stops me giving this episode a perfect 10 is that towards the end a couple of the characters turned into bullet sponges. Why is it that everyone else dies instantly after one or two bullets, but two certain characters can seemingly take a whole magazine to the torso and still somehow push themselves to commit one last "heroic" act? That annoyed me. But aside from that, this episode was fantastic, and this show is quickly becoming one of the best shows on TV right now, and easily the best original Sky series yet.
Episodes 23 and 24 are superb. From what I've read from those who have read the original novel "Time Machine" that this was based on, the ending was changed in the TV adaptation, based on that information I could say that the director and writer did an amazing job in giving us a different ending--it was heart wrenching, lovely, and touching.
As with most adaptations with a different ending than its original source, it is rare that the new ending leaves an impact to the audience, most often than not the original ending is still better. Not in the case of First Love Again (2021) TV adaptation, their ending deserves to be an official ending too, especially since we are talking about parallel universes and time travel.
The male and female leads were a perfect match. They portrayed perfectly what many of us experienced back in High School and whenever we fall in love. The anger, the sweetness, being playful with each other, even the little things they captured it all awesomely. The same with the side stories with their friends, like the pain of being rejected or the unexpected surprise classmates no one expected will be together ended up getting married.
It is also worth mentioning that they effectively used all 24 episodes to tell us different interconnected stories. It was not rushed nor was it lacking. They also kept the physics of spacetime travel (yes, one word "spacetime") simple and to a minimum. If we are going to talk about how logical it was, at this point it is hard to say. In the latter episodes, there appears to be some leaps when it comes to spacetime travel, but since I have not taken the time yet to fully review and gather my thoughts about it, I can not say anything about it … yet. Regardless, the spacetime travel is overall good and easy to follow for the majority of the episodes. Those who are not keen with parallel worlds and time travel stories would find it easy to watch this.
And hey, the overall story, the romance between our lead characters, are more than enough reason to watch First Love Again (2021) even if the Science does not make sense. This is a story of two High School friends that not even the universe can ever separate. A story about two souls who will always find each other and fall in love again and again and again and again …
Getting really tired of animes killing off characters episode 1 for no reason other than shock value.
I was laughing my head off at the beginning. You immediately know you're watching Jojo.
To enjoy this film you have to buy into its weirdness. I did and had a good time with it, despite the bonkers plot. Cage is great here bringing his usual brand of cool and he is clearly having a good time in the role.
This is the lowest I rated on a series opener. I'm not really enjoying it . may be its just my dislike to Kim Seon-ho characters in general .
P.S In the end credits its show Doo-shik is really smitten by Hye-Jin smile but i don't like condescending attitude towards her as everyone has a situation .
Also ffs who makes you walk that long before giving a job I would just say eat shit and bail outta there lol
Lee Kang: "You make me uncomfortable so please leave this country."
AKDJSHGAJSD THIS FOOL. :sob::sob::sob::rofl::rofl:
Well, in episode 5 I said that it could be one of the best anime of the season, now I think it will be.
nahhhhh come on, please give me more of this now
No.. Come on please nooo, enough sadness
What I can say for real, I think I'm gonna rewatch this ep a lot bc it's really perfect, touched my heart and made me happy while im having some bad time, Everything about was perfect, Soundtracks makes u feel that you are in another world and for sure the drawing beside the ep storyline,,,, Just so perfect,, And away from all of this, This scene when snake told them about his name, I felt that happines to degree you cant imagine, SO yah this ep that touchs your heart definitely
Are they seriously trying to tell us this girl pitched a book to a publisher, got offered a deal and got published within two weeks? Dude. That's more unrealistic that time travelling.
I'm seriously in love with this drama. Fuka Koshiba's acting & even her choice of clothes is so damn good. I love the chaotic energy she radiates in the show. The comedy, romance and drama: Everything is spot-on.
Why didn't this series start with where this series ends????
Another great performance by a guest actor, I like it a lot how every mental condition it's being portrayed so far, there are other Kdramas that have failed completely to showcase this, they wether show it as something terrible or they make fun of it when it's neither one or the other, this dramas shows that every person can suffer from it.
Also director Lee Jae Kyu has giving us some impresive shoots this episode!
This is one of the biggest letdowns in years. You simply cannot go wrong with Fassbender, until you go voiceover all the way! The story is never thrilling, clever or original… it’s just a B-movie that was reanimated for a Netflix release. It somehow gave me the same disappointment as George Clooney in The American, but think that movie won by a margin… skip this movie and enjoy the better 2023 releases.
Being the first season after the movie, this season's felt like it's had something to prove, to bring on new viewers won from the movies and keep old viewers by showing the spark hasn't died so many seasons in. It's been a dang good run, but this episode in particular stands not just as the best of the season, or the best of the last few years, but one of its best period. It's funny, but more than anything it's overflowing with heart, it capitalizes on over a decade's worth of connection to this family and even minor characters like Gene's music teacher to show how much these characters have grown and how deep their love for each other runs.
Gene showing his music expertise and creativity to save his recital not just for himself but for his favorite teacher. Bob and Linda trying so hard to achieve the impossible. Louise exposing that beating heart and being that vulnerable kid who acts like she doesn't care because it makes things easier not just for her but everyone else too. And Tina seeing through it and having the maturity won over the series to know that some pageant doesn't matter half as much as being there for her sister. It all intertwines in a beautiful musical climax that honestly left me undone. I've been with this family for a decade, and episodes like these make sure I'll stay for decades more. This is an instant Christmas staple.
Looking forward to read the book after this series is finished, but I loved that Park Chan-wook has chosen another TV project right in the same wheelhouse as his last one (The Little Drummer Girl), concerning the real and the artifice of spy craft with the director's signature magnetic style. The premiere might come off information-overload on paper, but Park's crosscutting montages and transitions make the story go down smoothly with the characters' emotions and humanity intact.
honestly id be mad too if i was saito miu didnt even want to be here and she has no clue what shes doing like im rooting for her but also why are they doing this to her??????
