What incredible footage! Absolutely loved the music direction too, always pushing, dead set on the countdown. It's amazing what they accomplished with technology no powerful than the phone in your pocket.
Another thing that astounded me is how far behind we are today. We haven't been back to the Moon since the 70's. The speeches from the Presidents were so worldly, humble, and inspiring. You would not see that from the current President. WATCH THIS DOCUMENTRY.
Not good.
The cinematography is like the director was intent of causing an epileptic seizure and obviously heavily inspired by the movie Sunshine.
It's an interesting concept but both Ex Machina and Morgan did it way better.
The gratuitous nudity throughout gives the whole thing an aura of softcore porn which is obviously enhanced by the fact that they cast Stoya as the droid but if there's one redeeming feature about this it's that she really can act.
Next time she might even get a role where she's dressed for more than 50% of the feature.
This is a Netflix series that drew my curiousity for it's interesting premise. It was filmed in Portuguese and I'm assuming those viewers who gave it rave reviews saw it in Portuguese, And those who felt the acting and dialogue were horrible saw it on Netflix, dubbed into English, which is how I first encountered it. And a horrible job of dubbing it was, causing many to abandon the series disappointed. However, I discovered you have the option, in Netflix settings, to choose Portuguese with English subtitles, and, voila, the acting and dialogue issues disappear (except for a few places when Brazilian passion for political speeches overtakes the moment). The pilot is available on YouTube, in Portuguese (no subtitles), so I couldn't start at the beginning of this tale (my Portuguese is non-existent). Netflix doesn't carry the pilot, only seasons 1-3. With the setting corrected, I found the series to be very enjoyable. I give this a 7.5 (really good) out of 10.
Update after Season Three - I have always believed that the weakness of this show was its tendency to melodrama. The last three episodes of this 3rd season fell victim to this, which is why I rated them so low. But it seems it is all set up for a 4th season, so I'm settling into a wait and see position, but I've reduced my rating to a 7 (potential) out of 10. [Dystopian Drama]
<Update after Season 4 - After much loss and sadness they opted for a very optimistic ending, but the contrast made it hard to swallow.
<Altogether, I would recommend this series for it’s unique approach to apocalypse, a talented core cast, and some great writing. I give this series an 8 (well rounded) out of 10.
Psych: The Move Sequel is a GO, and has been greenlit at USA Networks as of 02/14/2019. What better Valentines Day gift could Psych fans hope for, other than some San Francisco Sourdough from the exceptional bakeries around the Bay Area?

And Tim Omundson will indeed be back as Lassie, and in fact is at the center of the sequels plot!
This is mostly just bad kitsch.
James Wan’s trying really hard as a director and ends up succeeding in many regards, but it just doesn’t bring much to the table otherwise.
Some of the practical action scenes look good, but the characters and story are severely undercooked, unfocussed and messy.
It’s good that they’re not taking themselves too seriously, but the costumes still look kinda goofy and lame, the dialogue is inexcusable at points, and the actors are far from charming or funny. In fact, the leads of this film straight up suck, and don’t have the acting skills or presence to carry a franchise like this.
It’s trying to look expensive and vast, but a lot of it ends up feeling like one of those cheap Russian knock offs of a superhero movie.
4/10
Sorry folks but this one didn't go well for Marvel. I don't even know where to start. Acting was average, more like below average. Screenplay was as much ordinary as it could be. No surprise here. CGI was OK but it's somehow expected from Marvel. But I totally didn't like the idea of Wakanda. Hidden city in the center of Africa with tons of technology and advanced weapons and systems and so on. But how the hell did they build all of that? No explanation. It just happened. Yes, they have Vibranium, but they don't sell it. In fact they never did and for whole world they are just a bunch of shepherds and farmers. So where did they take all that money to build empire like this? I don't like movies without explanations and this is one of them. Almost nothing has been told about Vibranium whatsoever. Oh yeah, it's some super thing from the universe capable of anything. That's all the explanation you get. There are too many clichés we have already seen too many times. And we have to see them again. One example: I challenge someone for a fight because I want to kill him. And when I have the chance to kill him, what would I do? Kill him or throw him down from the cliff to the water where he can survive? But enough. If you hesitate if to watch this, I can recommend not to waste your time. Wait for the Avangers where you can also see the Black Panther. You won't miss anything if you miss out this movie.
A great world war 2 documentary, it feels a little bit fast at some points. But that is to be expected when trying to put 7 years of war in 12 hours.
Although the series is quite good I a bit disappointed that it only covers the battles. And doesn't give an in depth view of WW2.
Of course it was a brilliant marketing idea - they had the script, they had the music, they had all the creative part. The rest is mechanical work.
The result is pretty much mechanical too. All the magic is gone. Every scene looks artificial and lifeless, every phrase or action is just a filler. The filler is Emma Watson herself - her acting is simply walking from point A to point B with the hands down and turning the head on director's order.
They brought nothing new to the adaptation, so it turned out to be as dusty and rusty as a cursed castle. Shame on them.
Disney continues to throw money at these live-action remakes and whilst at least Maleficent tried something a little different, it seems that the success of these remakes have made Disney less willing to try something a little different, resulting in a film that is virtually identical to the original animated version barring a couple of additional moments or songs. It is such a shame because the casting is fine and the story as you would expect has all the strengths and flaws of the original - the problematic nature of the heroine falling for her captor is amplified even more here by the shortened passage of time between capture and eventual release. It all makes for a watchable if rather pointless exercise. Notwithstanding the box-office success, the overriding feeling is why bother remaking what was already a classic film in its own right ?
Ooo eee ooo ahh ahh..ting tang..wallawalla ape bang
So the beginning of the episode explains the issues and questions about the explosion/planet destruction from the last episode. Well, here I thought they were going to milk that for next season, but everything/the answers are just wrapped up in a quick recap by two in like a minute.
Two continues to be the show's most compelling character, and I suppose this is partly because the actress is also the most compelling and convincing out of the whole cast (aside from The Android). She really makes an okay script into something beautiful to watch. The rest of the cast, still feels disconnected from the words on the page, almost as if they are going through the motions. Now, It could also be in the directing or just lack of chemistry between the cast. Hell, it also be part of the setup for the show: to have a group is disjointed characters have to work together and only be bound by money and circumstances. Whatever it may be the case, Two is still the character (and actor) that grabs my attention the most.
The crew takes a job, but ends up being a setup/trap to capture Two. The group who engineered/created her want her back and they are lead by Whil Wheaton (!) in very heavy villain eyeliner. Apparently she is an advance bioegineered humanoid with some organic parts but mainly nanobots. Also, her creation is totally illegal and would be destroyed if anyone found out. So all of Two's backstory is literally female is a robot and engineered by mad men with a god complex. And once in his presence she is rendered completely harmless. Hmm. Watching Wheaton is a bit distracting cause he plays cartoon villain to a T. All that was missing was him twirling his evil mustache.
Even as the team is forced to leave her behind, they figure out a way to save her: The Android. I really like that the robot gets to go save the robot. Both of which are women. And, yes, I ship it! Again, the women on the show are the most compelling. Watching The Android kick major ass (taking down 6 guards), and putting herself on the line to save Two makes me so happy.
One of the favorite arcs is how The Android questions her effectiveness and stabitlity because she starts to care for the team. Even as a logic based machine, she cares and she is okay with that. (though it's entertaining to see her talk/argue with her factory reset version).
The hardest part to watch of the episode was watching the violence (and utter hate) inflicted by the male scientists toward Two. But watching her destroy them and freeing herself was so satisfying.
Note: I hadn't realized that the next ep was the season finale. The show's writing (and possibly it's direction/tone) has had a hard time building momentum and setting a pace to a proper build up toward a season finale. And it's frusrtating cause I like many of the shows general ideas and concepts they play in, but I fail to love the actual execution.
Wasn't sure where the episode was going, the only thing I knew for sure was that Two was dead. Well... seems I got that wrong, in the most epic twist.
As the traitor crew takes over the ship, the men of the Raza are held prisoners in their own ship slowly dying from lack of air.
Five, as the ships tech geek, is used to fix the broken FTL drive. But in order to fix the drive someone has to go outside. As one of the minions is sent out, they inexplicably lose air and drift off into space, while something comes back in. And yes, you guessed it, that something is Two. And there is something really really weird going on with her. Like, she might not be human weird.
Two takes out, in the most badass fight scenes, the traitor team and takes control of the ship. Gotta say, my favorite part of the show is how fucking badass Two is. The guys might out number her, but she can out badass them any day.
So far Two is the one with the least backstory, the one we know VERY little about but also the most compelling on the show. As the Android tells her, she was bioengineered, made to specifications but with living organs. She is not supposed to legally exist. But who made her? Was she taken from a previously killed person? Was she ever really a person? Did she escape whoever made her? So many questions. But one thing is for sure, Two is absolutely my favorite character and the actor who portrays her exudes command and control.
Two is more compelling than the four guys put together, and I say this knowing that each of the four guys have interesting and complex backstories.
Another interesting story point is the malfunction of the device they were previously sent to steal. It blows up a whole planet!?!? Was this done on purpose by the corporation? Or was it a real malfunction and they are going to be blamed for it?
Heist episode.
Starts with a great (and badass) moment where The Raza is ambushed by their old Corp partners, via a crazy move save themselves, and their new cor partners arrive in the nick of time to "help". This was a great setup but I wish we would have focused more on that. Things get complicated and backstabby when the corps are involved, almost like an intergalactic coporate version of mean girls.
The intro is a set up for the Heist. Their new corp partners wants them to steal something super top secret, but this time with a secondary team, the very much antiRaza (cold and calculating).
After Two kicks some serious ass after douche hits on her, Five is brought in to the team. Rest of the ep follows a standard heist with the expected complications. But they get it done. Does have two great fight scenes, which is always something I love and something I usually feel is missing from this series.
The twist at the end is the second team turning against them. Holding Five hosted in exchange for the stolen material. Suprisingly its Three who gives it up. But in the end Two is shot out of the airlock.
Overall at fair episode. Again, this show keep setting up interesting things but I feel they go a very conventional route.
And all the dynamics I liked from the previous episode are gone.
The show returns to talkyness, choppy storytelling and disjointed acting. Get lots of talky story about Four, One reveals to Two his dislike with Three, and again no storylines that pull at you. Filler.
Episode is a connector episode, fills almost filler and not really moving the story forward.
Episode sets up the pay off that was placed earlier in the season when Six saw the ad for human clones/conscious transfering. We start off the episode with Six being killed and disintegrating immediately. Cut to Six waking up in at a clinic in a Pod. Surprise! It was his clone who died. So many questions!! Why did he have a clone? How long has he had it? Did he join the Raza before or after cloning? Will the original Six have all his memories now that the clone is gone? Is he going to rejoin the team? How will the team react to this revelation?
No wait! Six isn't the clone, Six cloned himself. To be able to move away from the Raza. This is even better than a reveal, it's not for backstory but to push the story forward. Was not expecting this use of the clone tidbit.
Really enjoyed the bit where the group goes out for dinner and ends up drunk. Showing them just hanging out and not trying to not get killed. Also, Three mourning his lost lady love while being drunk is great.
One and Four follow Six via clones, and another Surprise! We are confirmed that One, or the face of One isn't really his. When his real self is revealed via the clone. Again, we are confirmed what was planted in an earlier episode when One meets himself, who implies he altered his feautres to look like the criminal. Now the question, why? Why go through the trouble of looking like an outlaw? Why did he want to be on the ship? So many questions!
Also loved how Four believes he is One when he calls Three a jerk. Like, yes, I've met him.
Six goes after the General who made him a murderer (and fugitive) not a freedom fighter. As he finally kills him only to discover he killed a clone.... well, this clone thing just makes this more complicated. So close, yet so far.
Shit hits the fan for One as the team finds out his truth.
Another reveal! One is a corporate heir and went on the ship to go after Three for his wife's murder.
Well, this is getting more complicated, and interesting, with each episode.
This episode is the show finally hitting it's stride. The writing sets up and pays off many elements that have been placed earlier. And the actors are finally messhing into a workable dynamic.
The crew finally figures out the room that has been the focus of Three's attention and interest. The room is a cargo room, full of weapons, etc, etc, but also comes with a frozen human and an "entertainment" android.
Three's obession with the room reconnects him to his past. The frozen woman is his (former) lover with a terminal disease, Three/Marcus had placed her in statis to extend her life for a possible cure. She saved him after being left behind for dead, she nursed him back to life and fell in love. It's interesting to see Three in an emotionally compromised situation, as he's only even been portayed as a cold-hearted, opportunistic SOB. We are shown that Three does have a heart, it was just frozen inside a dying woman. When they thawed her, they also thawed him.
Meanwhile, One focuses his attention (and interest) on the Ent android, after Two rebukes his advances. His integration of the new droid sets up a rivalry with the ships Android, making her feel ignored and unappreciated. This is an interesting notion as the android begins having "human-like" behavior, maybe even possible emotions.
Unbeknownst to the crew, they have opened up Pandora's box: the entertainment android is a trojan horse, revenge on the group from an old target. The android was sent to kill the crew and take control of the ship. Three places Sara in the stasis pod hoping to save her, while he goes out to kill the killerbot, but unfortunately the pod malfunctions, letting her die
Unfortunately for Three, unthawing his heart has caused his love to die, as the disease advanced rapidly and takes hold of her, the very thing that he was trying to prevent when he placed her in stasis. Sara is used to represent his heart, his humanity, that he is much more than a killer.
On the flip side, One's self indulgence, his view of being a "nice guy" who doesn't get the girl, and activating the bot for his amusement has a domino effect that ultimate leads to the death of an innocent woman.
Note: though the bot does notice that Two is physically attracted by One, I dislike that Two makes a move on One after his selfishness lead to the death of another. Also, it feels like it rewards his behavior and leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Like he is just too much of a nice guy to have to account for his immaturity and their consequences. I don't like One, he is the quitesential nice guy, who is actually an immature, self absorbed who covers himself in victim/nice guy.
The concept that memories of the team are implanted, by accident, into a child, Five,and can only be accessed via dreams is interesting.
We see the childhood and history that lead Four to the Raza. He is a young prince and heir to a dynasty. Coming from a ruthless father, he learned no mercy and coldness. By dynasty politics are complicated, more so when he finds out he was framed for the murder of his father, the emperor, by his stepmother. We finally get an answer as to where he learned his sword and fighting skills. Four is the embodiment of his upbringing: distant, reserved and precise, all the makings of an emperor.
We also learn Five was an orphan and also lived with another group of street kids; they stole something that was very valuable and went after them. The young boy that they had found on the cargo hold was her friend who had been stabbed in the attack. Five is a stowaway.
Six learns he was an outlaw but also activist, trying to fight for what was right, but the cost of change, the cost of war, especially the cost of innocents for that change was too much for him to bear. He is a wanted terrorist, killer of thousands of innocents, scum of the earth. He is set up by his commander, when he learns of the betrayal and manipulation, he kills them all.
Kudos to the show for constructing complex and diverse backstories for the crew. Each character isn't a simple bad guy or mercenary, rather complex individuals that have learned that good and evil aren't opposites, but a gray scale and depends of context.
Still not loving the acting on the show. It usually feels very phoned in and flat. More of actors saying lines than acting.
Though I'm still unsure about the cast dynamics, the storytelling is moving toward a stride. With each new encounter, we uncover a little about the amnesiac crew, but ultimately leading to more questions. This episode was all about mysteries hidden from 2. Who is she? Why is she immune to a zombie-making virus? Why is she such a skilled fighter? The focus on Two in this ep made it much more interesting. She holds your attention and carries most of the ep.
Episode focuses mainly on monster/mystery of the ship they encounter. It's another stuck-in-a episode, this time with a virus on another vessel.
Though the back stories are taking focus. The interesting story is how it's implied that the crew might be clones or at least some of them. 6 sees a commercial about cloning ones self, which is given alot of attention, also 1 is revealed to be a clone when he comes across his original. While 4 is revealed to be a prince, who also possibly killed his father and part of a dynasty.
Still having trouble getting into the pacing of the show. The stories keep focusing on a whole fish out of water/we have no memories or how things work (which is a bit contradictory to how 2 made a complicated solution from the 2 part pilot).
Also, the cast dynamics still don't mesh well. As of now 2 as the lead is the strongest in holding my attention. For a scifi show about mercenaries, there is little action and alot of dialogue to push the story forward. Want less dialogue and more movement in the story.
Stuck-in-a episode. The crew tries to figure out who they are and if someone is lying about not knowing who they are, while the ship is nonfunctional. Episode feels like a filler. Very talky and drama heavy. It's meh.
Part 2 of the pilot. Expands on basic history of the crew, while setting up principal conflict. Their memories were purposely wipe by one of the crew, because they are dangerous, but Who from the crew wiped their memories? Gives us a glimpse into what the Raza is best known for: Killers for hire. You don't want to get on their bad side. Also, shows how 2 is clear leader of the crew.
Thoughts: overall having the crew focus on someone other than themselves helped with the pacing and move the talking into action. I'm still not fully interested in the show. Feels the same way I felt about Stargate series.
The pilot opens strong with a fight scene and quickly jumps into the premise: crew of 6 doesn't have any memories. Most of the crew has some sort of fighting skills, so maybe military or mercenaries? Oh, might be mercenaries... mentions of a group, The Raza, who no one knows who or what they are, cause no one survives them... okay, for the Raza is the name of the ship and they are the crew.
Standard Pilot episode. Mainly exposition based. Introduces the prinicpal crew. Alot of who are you? What am I doing here? Shit, what's going on?
[spoiler]Overall first impression: the premise of the show is interesting. We are dropped into the middle of the story with no reference or clue, via the characters. Not sure if the cast, as an ensemble has enough chemistry to catch my attention. For the cast, I only found Two and the Android to grab my attention. Some of the cast feels miss cast (or just the actors avail for the roles?).
Let me start this off by saying that this sequel did not feel outside of what we remember.
Blade Runner 2049 maintains the mood and feel of its predecessor. The visuals, the sound... the dystopian future, it's all there.
| FIRST THOUGHT |
I love writing reviews, it comes somewhat naturally to me after watching something that I learn to feel passionate about.
This movie taught me to be passionate.
But... it's really hard for me to express judgment. And I'm going to explain why:
Actually, it's very simple. This was a 3 hours movie. Of these 3 hours, 2 were simply... air. Now, don't get me wrong, that isn't always negative, like in this case. It was refreshing air, but still... it doesn't (at first glance) hold anything on the plot.
Because of this, the viewer (me at least), is left with a lot of questions, the picture doesn't explain itself. Also; as a side note - you most definitely need to watch the first one. The great majority of the runtime is inexplicably useless.
The longer it goes, the longer it begins to add new stuff, and then some, then it seems somehow related to what's actually going on, but right after it deviates the actual story on an ideal from the characters involved, that at a certain point, evaporates. I'm really conflicted about this because it looks to me like the screenwriters and director wanted to leave all of this to theory and the fans.
Why is this confusing? Because it's a very strange mixture of linear narrative and non-linear narrative. One is focussed on one objective, the other starts a bunch of other objectives and then it simply dies. No explanation was given, no closure was given.
And this is aggravated by the fact that it's a 3 hours movie, of which 1 hour of the actual story is spread and mixed amongst 2 hours of absolutely nothing. VISUALLY IMPRESSIVE NOTHING. A VERY INTERESTING BUNCH OF LITERAL VOID.
This is actually the only thing I did not like about the movie. Which, again, if you are like me and enjoy movies that aren't patently explaining themselves, it's not a bad thing. I just feel like it could've been much more interesting if they explained somehow what happened to all the side characters, or just cut them out.
|STORY & ACTORS |
Aside from what I've mentioned before, the more "linear" part of the story is actually not that bad. It's nothing impressive. A part of what I said earlier connects to the fact that this movie constantly keeps juggling between what is real and what is not. Be it by robots, or actual reality that the characters are living. So it came out pretty obvious that the movie would have a twist at some point, somewhere. I will admit that I did not get it until the very end, so, don't be discouraged.
Ryan Gosling was great, also because he as an actor was perfect for his role. Being so that he has this way of being and looking conflicted, and so it portrayed really well on the protagonist.
Harrison Ford had less value to this movie than he did in the last Star Wars.
Jared Leto's character is a mystery to me, but he did a phenomenal job talking random shit.
All of the other actors, Jared Leto included, were there to push the story forward (or to add random bullshit) and that's it. They did a fantastic job, but unfortunately, as mentioned above, at first glance it looks like they don't mean shit.
| CINEMATOGRAPHY |
The movie is visually pleasing, it's bliss for people with OCD. It's perfectly round and at the same time perfectly square. It keeps smooth lines combining great color combinations in the palette, and utilizing great solid colors at the same time.
As I said before it holds perfectly a spot near its predecessor, the mood and feel are almost identical. (Having watched the first one only an hour before going to the theater to watch this one)
I have to say, this one looks A LOT, like A FUCKING GIGAZILLION LOT more gruesome and splatter than the first one. The fighting scenes are brutal, they do not go into dramatic effects, they just are what they should be. A punch in the face, exploding heads and blood.
There is no doubt that this movie looks fucking amazing.
It sounds amazing as well. It has a collection of deep, pure sounds. There is not a lot of music, but when there is it's powerful and present and it makes you wake up and amaze. Same goes for the special audio effects: I have watched it in ATMOS and I have to admit, they did not utilize it at all, except for one scene later in the movie, but the way it goes from absolute silence to seat trembling sensations it's really amazing. The sounds were so powerful I could literally see the movie screen shake and the subwoofer hit made the whole room shake.
I would also like to add that in the Italian version, you can clearly see that they used "incorrect" words grammatically, they used a lot of anglicisms, I guess they've done that to express how language is evolving? It's actually current of our generation, I see a lot of people adapting English words in Italian, so I was very impressed by that.
| FINAL THOUGHT |
I feel like everyone needs to understand, before watching this movie, that you need a time, a mood and a place perfectly fit to sit for a 3 hours movie that it's going to feel like a 6-hour long journey into colors, shapes, and absolute "living" silence.
This is NOT a Marvel movie, there is action, well-done action, but it's not about action. You need to sit, relax and don't think about time, because, trust me, it's going to fuck you.
Please like my comment if you enjoyed my review, it makes me really happy.

On Twitter, I review the entire world -> @WiseMMO
Back in 2014, there was a film called "Whiplash" that blew everyone away, including me. It was my 2nd favorite movie of that year and I had my eye out for the director next project. Wasn't very long until Damien Chazelle next film in was in post-production and was already a serious Oscar contender. I think "La La Land" and "Silence" was my most anticipated movies of 2016/17. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint.
"La La Land" is one of the best musicals I've seen since "Sweeney Todd" and "Singing in the Rain". It's a movie that lifts your spirit up and leaves you smiling though out. Even with today's generation of loud politics, four years of Trump, celebrities dying, and endless amount of pointless controversy. But then comes a musical about two people who are dreamers, that deal with inn conflict and show how dreams can lead to success. By making the impossible possible while living in a place where dreams come to die.
Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone were both dynamite in this movie. The relationship was sweet and relatable that I actually cared for what was going on. Even with the singing and dancing use as a tool that the characters express their happiness, sadness or disappointment was terrific. This is the best I've seen from Stone and Gosling. Both of them sparkle in this musical.
Damien Chazelle, what can I say about this guy. Chazelle as a film making is both amazing and inspirational. He's on a roll recently and if he's next two movies are brilliant, then he is the best living director today. In "La La Land", he follows a similar theme in his previous movie "Whiplash" about fighting for a dream and jazz, but this movie goes for more a light tone than a dark one. For the dramatic elements of the movie, I really like how he lets it go on for awhile as an emotional effect. He also got an eye for spectacle, because LA never looked so beautiful and fairy tale-like. What else is there to say, but Chazelle nailed it.
Without spoiling anything, but the last shot of this movie was so beautiful and yet sad at the same time. Chazelle sure knows how to end his movies and that's with a powerful punch.
My only complaint I have with the movie is that a few scenes could've been trimmed a bit, as it dragged for me. And while the homages to old musicals were fitting, but some was a bit down your throat. I wouldn't say repetitive (because it's not), but more of a "alright, I get it" kind of complaint. That's really it for flaws.
Overall rating: "La La Land" is simply wonderful. It's a firework of joy and excitement that it's really hard not to fall in love with it. I'm already looking forward to "First Man".
Another one of those shows that starts off pretty meh then finds it's footing and takes a significant turn for the better.
Gave up half way through season 1, gave it another chance, and now I can't wait for each new episode!
The potential is sky high for Midnight Special and the cast is great. I really enjoyed the movie but there is a very painful lack of depth. I feel like this could've been the movie of the year and it just didn't quite get there.
What a pointless waste of time and money this movie is the worst I've seen in a long time. switched of after i wasted 30minutes waiting for something interesting and entertaining to happen. avoid like the plague
Like its name, this movie is a bit of a trainwreck. For one, it is far too long. And while Amy Schumer proves that she has the stuff to potentially make rom-coms funny again, the script of this movie does not give her the opportunity this time. There are a few laugh out loud moments, but most of the jokes fall flat.
This film was extremely sad and heart-wrenching like most pixar films are. However, everything that happened were things I've seen before in other Disney movies. It was similar to The Lion King in someways.
Cute movie. But it offered nothing new.
Just went through and correct all the mistakes on TMDB, TVDB and Wikipedia so it should update soon.
