Well, it wasn't that great a movie. The singing did kill it. I wasn't expecting it to be there, honestly speaking. And somehow, something just didn't click. I know it was a Disney movie, but it just failed to impress.
y'all tripping, this was a good movie and +1 for the fox being bad
“Can you guess what every woman's worst nightmare is?”
You know, I find it genuinely concerning that some people are angry and upset over this movie. I mean, just look on IMDB. Film is subjective and it’s OK not to like this movie, but the thing I don’t understand is why certain people are upset with the themes this movie appropriately presents. Even through deep inside I know why. If it scares them, good, because they deserve to be scared.
‘Promising Young Woman’ is a rare revenge movie that crosses several genres with one sharp sweep. Some parts are funny, other times it’s romantic, but it can get DARK really quick. I thought the way it was executed was creative and interesting. It shocked me at times with its twist and turns, even though it shouldn’t be surprising. The world can be so dark and treacherous that being surprised by its twisted ways is a bit foolish. Certain elements felt realistic, while other elements of the movie felt...well, like a movie.
It’s nice to see that Carey Mulligan’s career is getting better and better. In this movie Mulligan delivers an amazing performance that was captivating to watch. It’s difficult to imagine an actor playing a character who is dealing with so much emotional baggage and vulnerability from past events in her life, but tries her best to conceal it, but Mulligan manages to find the right balance. She can be extremely funny, emotional, and really intimidating. Her drunk acting deserves some praise as well, because within the movie her character pretends to be drunk in bars or nightclubs, to trick “nice guys” who want take advantage on her intoxicated vulnerability, before she drops the act to scare them enough to teach them a lesson. The transformation from drunk to sober was nothing short of impressive.
I was surprised to see Bo Burnham here and it’s great seeing him getting acting roles. He is a man of many talents; comedy is one of them and in this movie he never fails to make me smile. Alison Brie and Alfred Molina are also in this movie and both did a great job in their small roles.
I give this movie major credit for being unpredictable. I would sometimes try to guess where the story might be heading, to only have the rug pulled right under me.
It was an interesting choice to cast likeable actors in the roles of predators and despicable people. The movie smartly suggests that people like these can easily hide their sinister side through a fake smile and popularity.
Now I’m being vague about certain things because I’m hoping what I’ve said so far might boost your interest in checking this one. I’m starting to do that now, going in blind and leaving impressed (hopefully).
Director and writer Emerald Fennell did a solid job on delivering a fresh and unique take on a brutal topic with extreme care on the subject matter. This is also her direct debut and everything I’ve seen on screen shows great potential for her as a filmmaker in the future. The look of the movie has that candy-like colour to it, which made the movie look visually appealing to the eye. Revenge has never looked so colourful.
Without spoiling the ending for the movie, but the way it concludes is very strange and rare. I was both sad and happy at the same time. However, it can also make or break the movie for some, while I was kind of mixed on it. Some parts of the ending were realistic, as it was a cold reminder for us that sometimes justice isn’t always severed.
Unfortunately, this is where my issues start to come in. When I said some parts of the ending was dark and realistic, well to me it didn’t quite commit to that with the last few minutes of the movie. I just wished they took more of a real approach to conclude the conflict that could be plausible. I also thought the movie was a little on the nose with its social message at times.
And that’s really it for issues. What, you expected more? Surprise!
Overall rating: Revenge is best severed in confetti and rainbow colours.
Amazing. I'm pretty sure this is the first adult-focused cartoon that's not edgy.
If you don't agree this is for adults, watch all the Peter Potamus parts again.
I think that the information released through this documentary, is for the most high importance for all of us who use the internet. A must see, indeed.
I enjoyed the hell out of Chappie, I highly recommend it! =D
If you're more of a FNAF player, this is much oriented to you, rather than coming in as a movie only person. It's alright, tries it's best to stick to the source material. But it has it's own his hits and misses, and oof moments. Could've been better, more scarier but it's also not bad. Somewhere in the middle.
Disappointing.
I so wanted to love this, and without Natasha it would be completely unwatchable (for me), but she has been let down by the writers. I'm OK with the suspension of disbelief if you can keep my logical brain engaged elsewhere, but this is not that.
The first episode is the setup for the entire series. If you get through that with a positive impression, I think you will enjoy what follows.
I'm neither a girl, nor teenager or Asian and I still enjoyed it. Imagine only watching movies you identify with facepalm
Such a great cute little claymation show. My girlfriend and I are addicted to it, we cant just watch one episode. And if we're ever in a bad or down mood, an episode of Pingu always turns our spirits around.
Another Sony movie with amazing animation and plot that... did not deliver what was promised.
Full of clichés and unfunny jokes that ruin the mood of the moment, forgettable characters, an overused "my family is so bad and out of the norm" plot device and a gaslighting father that happens to realized how good of a person his daughter is when he is about to die because why not?. The animation and the voice acting saved this movie from being hot garbage.
Finally a 1+ hour episode of Love Death and Robots
It wouldn't be accurate to say I grew up alongside Bo Burnham. He's six years older than me. So I've gotten to see him grow, but he was always a step ahead on the road. Then suddenly, in this special, we're side by side, and I feel a horrifying catharsis at being in the same place as him. The thrill and terror of being seen. I want to run back inside and watch him on the outside, going through it with a wry joke. But we're all stuck in this. Stuck inside, and that inside is so much more than just a quarantine. Even though this is probably the quarantine media, it's about everything too.The outside is inside, everything is inside, and yet we've never felt more distant despite going through the same thing. I was left undone. Devastated. Funny Feeling left me weeping. It's just an incredible piece of work that'll stick with me for a long time.
Very good documentary, on a very actual fact.
Thank you Mr Snowden. What courage and determination.
This is a horror movie.
Story, characters, visuals, sound. They're really polished and has a lot of small, but noticeable things that make you smile. Sadly, I can't tell the same about the ending. I don't know, had it been corrected or something, but it's so illogical and silly. Still, Chappie IS a very good movie worth watching.
