What a trainwreck of a movie.
I've soldiered through all 6 episodes and now can have my informed opinion. I'm so glad this mistake is finally over. Unfortunately, it stains the big title name forever.
Had there been any semblance of quality control at Marvel, they would have realized this movie was unfit for cinematic release.
Constructing a movie that requires hours of Disney+ homework to understand not one, but two main characters who have never been introduced into the cinematic universe before is not conducive to a good viewing experience.
Plot feels flimsy, sloppy and chopped to hell, character arcs are non-existent, and Captain Marvel in particular is written as a completely different character from her first film. Third act is contrived and on auto-pilot.
The fucking janitors?! Hahaha, who wrote this crap!
This is one of those films that is just impossible to hate.
It’s such a well made crowdpleaser; from the acting, to the score, to the camerawork.
From the very first scene, you know you’re in the hands of a filmmaker who knows what he’s doing.
It’s long, but you don’t feel its length at all.
The predictability of the story is the only real issue.
7.5/10
"You make my world so much bigger and I'm wondering if I do the same for you?"
Equally heartwarming and heartbreaking. Simple, but elegant. Romance is usually a flop with me, not my favorite genre but this one managed to make me emotional especially in the last few minutes. The characters and the two relationships we get here are so real and relatable. Supported by three amazing performances, beautiful imagery and a calm and soothing score. Some thought-provoking themes on fate, reincarnation, soulmates and immigration. The In-Yun stuff is a concept I probably won't ever forget. Really makes you question your life. Perfect emotional ending. Kinda scary that this is coming from a first time director, better watch out for Celine Song!

"I don't know how"

A Marvel Phase 5 movie for the cringe fangirls wannabes, the phony science mambo jambo tryhards and the weirdo unanappealing cat ladies. A humorless parody simulacra of a MCU movie from the first three phases. It's more painful to watch than the first episode of Ms Marvel (I never managed to watch the rest). Nick Fury managed to get eviscerated even further than he was on Captain Marvel and Secret Invasion. The only good things in the movie are two good songs that feel completely out of place and act like music videos with cringe visuals. The original music videos of those songs are a better watch though. The villain is a joke cosplayer that tries harder to be cool than the tryhard from the quantum realm.
You can really feel Marvel's desperation when they put the post credits scene on the trailer for the movie. I think this was a first. And what an empty mystery box that was! This was definitely a huge nail in the MCU coffin. Let's see for how much longer they will drag that corpse.
This is a very charming movie. The movie deals with stereotypes and racism in the 1960s as well as you would expect. Racism is bad, stereotypes aren't always true but the journey is fun with these two. Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali are both fantastic. They play very well off each other. Being directed by Peter Farrelly there are quite a few funny moments too.
This movie is what you get if you order The Da Vinci Code from Temu
Watchable one. But if I could go back in time and tell myself not to watch, I would.
A well made film , great direction , good acting and the chemisty between christian bale and matt damon is awesome
Even if you're not a car sports fan you're gonna dig this one.
The race sequences were impressive .
A movie that never justifies its existence.
I have a lot of respect for what John Favreau did with The Jungle Book.
He managed to do something that every remake should aim for, but usually fails to do: improve upon its original.
This, however, is the exact same movie.
There was zero effort put into improving things, or even do anything different, for that matter.
And to some degree, I get it: the original is almost sacred to some people, and they’ll act autistically if you change too much.
There’s also an upside to that, which some critics don’t pick up on: if a story works in 1994, it still works in 2019.
But you could at the very least try some different shot compositions, or different music cues, or anything to not make this movie completely creatively hollow.
Yes, it looks just like a Discovery documentary.
At the same time, the realism strips the expressiveness of the animals away, so those things cancel each other out.
There’s just no reason to watch this over the original.
5.5/10
2 hours in and nobody's been terrorized by a giant insect... Honey... I shrunk the Trakt score
Ford v Ferrari is an expensive, finely tuned machine that races out of the starting block and kicks into high gear until the finish.
Matt Damon is in peak form and Christian Bale keeps up the pace in this fascinating tale of the 1966 Le Mans race. Trust me, the +2-hour run time flies by so fast you won't see it pass.
Yes, I could've done without the grease monkey poetry, but any film that can stoke my interest in car racing of all things has got to be well put together.
(And, as always, go in as blind as you can and see it on the biggest screen possible.)
Honestly I really liked the look of this trailer until mcgregor came on the screen
It was obviously a product: "Hey Dad! I wanna play in a movie too! Can I, Daddy? Pleaeaeaeasse?"
Seriously, this movie was offensive towards the original. You suck, Will Smith, for presenting this movie to the youth of today and ruining youth sentiments for me, and many others.
Who approved such a crappy script? Do we need three to share powers. Pointless.
All reviews or comments on this film should start with stating what a phenomenal director Sean Durkin is. What he is able to pull out of his actors, the expert lighting and mood, every little detail is top of its class.
I don't know anything about wrestling and this isn't a movie about wrestling, it is a greek tragedy and misery biopic. So many great performances here to call out an individual, but Zac Effron blacks out and turns in an all-time performance here. Absolutely stunning across the board, i can't keep thinking about the entire thing.
Richard Reed Parry absolutely murders the score here too.
I will follow Durkin to the ends of the world after this, Martha Marcy May Marlene, and The Nest.
Harris Dickinson is going to be talked about in best actor circles in the coming years.
"buncha slack jawwed faggots!..this stuff'll make you a goddamn sexual ty-rannasaurus...just like mmee"
When every scene is agonizingly slow (motion) of course your movie is 4 hours. Do not waste your time like I did.

This must be the first film written by chatgpt
Another boring and inconsequential Marvel movie, not much different from what DC would do.
The change of positions between protagonists is the only interesting thing, but it doesn't feel very used.
Worst MCU movie so far. If they don't produce something that feels epic and engaging going forward then the MCU is basically dead.
Boogie Nights by way of Happy Madison productions. A monumental failure in every way.
Stripped down to its core this is probably the most romantic of all superhero movies. Man and woman immortal and bound together by cosmic fate live through centuries being chased by bad guys, only having each other to protect. But they can't be together or else they become mortal. In order to save his life the woman leaves the man upon learning he won't remember her after waking up from a life threatening injury, which he sustained while protecting her. Many decades he has become Hancock a no-good, booze drinking, alcoholic excuse of a superhero and she is a married housewife with a son. They meet again and the love story that has been going on for thousands of years continues in modern day LA. Now THAT'S original storytelling, Thanks to its unique mythological undertones Hancock is easily one of my top 3 superhero movies of all time.
It’s not often that I have such a strong aversion to a movie that I have not seen. I will never ever ever watch this. From the preview, posters past Miss Marvel etc. I know with 100% certainty that I will hate this movie. I’m still having cringe flashbacks from the preview. And I love bad ass chicks - I even have Trakt list by that name…
I wasn't even halfway through Aliens when I knew it was going to be one of my favorite movies ever... and Ripley is such a badass #girlspower
One would say a hundred years from now humans will be more clever but this movie represents the exact opposite. I know there has to be some plot but you can write it in many different ways (and better ways). Instead we can see the dumbest space crew ever with totally no responsibility, no precautions, no strategy. Just a total lack of everything you can think of. And you will be probably repeating one single question over and over while watching this movie. Why the hell are they....? What the f*ck are they....? And when you repeat it for the fifth time you will start regreting watching this movie. Really, it's not worth it.
I laughed so much!
Not because the movie was funny but it had a so bad scenario, and the acting was so lame that I couldn't stop laughing.
We are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay far from the first Marvel movies, Loki or Dr Strange movies.
It feels like a teenage Marvel movie.
The part with the singing people, I almost cried. Princess Carol, seriously?
Stay away from this guys
