uhm i cried of happiness when that kiss happened, but then they said goodbye and i cried even more. but this time of pain. fuck. i want jane to be with michael so bad. having him back on the show has been really painful, and now i dont even think it was worth it? i mean jane and rafael are great together, but i dont see them as an endgame. but now i guess they are. sigh
THIS IS ABSOLUTE AND COMPLETE BULLSHIT
the whole episode is just michael and Jane feels just so they can throw it all in the trash can in the last 5 minutes because she supposedly loves rafael now, the same rafael that she didnt love like 3 episodes ago.
This is stupid and it is crap and idek if i’ll keep watching now that they’ll force rafael and Jane to be endgame after bringing Michael back and dedicating so many episodes to showing how perfect they are for each other:rolling_eyes::rolling_eyes:
Don't be fooled by those comments, the show isn't as bad as they are saying, it was most likely not directed towards them. Everyone has a type of show they like, so if you aren't a fan of teenage drama this obviously won't be a show for you (duh).
Ps: if you are into teenage drama meets mystery this one is for you, the first few episodes are more of the former but it gets way better as the episodes pass. It had a the 100 and under the dome vibe.
Narratively confusing at the beginning, with a reliance on a flashback structure. But stick with it, because all becomes clear, as does the evidence pointing to Bundy's guilt. A well made film, with a chillingly charming (strange choice of words I know, but true) performance from Efron.
The Raymond, Kevin, and Jake dynamic is one of my top favorites. It always gives a feel of parents and their dorky son. Hehe. Come on, guys! Adopt him already. He needs it.
Gosh, that end-credit scene was beautiful (and not just because Marc Evan Jackson with a beard is apparently hot as h*ck).
Not only is Endgame the most ambitious movie Marvel has made, but it also is the grandest. Even more so than Infinity War. No other movie can utilise the emotional ties that have been embedded within our hearts over the build of 11 years. And boy does it use them well. Stringing together scene after scene of nothing but impactful tension in the third act. But this doesn't leave the other two boring or bland. It allows these parts to build off of the aftermath of Infinity War. Never once was I bored, or felt like I was sitting there for three hours. For the action is no letdown, lovely dynamics are interwoven for a fantastic spectacle.
I don't want to say much, but it is hands down the best Marvel can offer. It is not Infinity War, Part II. It's something much better, the true culmination of everything and I do mean everything. The fan service here is through the roof and done so damn creatively. Not one thing feels hammered into the story. Even some major elements in its plot stem from the smallest details of previous movies I would have never seen coming. Taking even lesser liked fragments and stringing them into a more meaningful poetic story than the original movie would have ever told.
Using style and grace to tell this bold epic is strong with this movie. Gone are the golds and purples of Infinity War. And in comes a bleak atmosphere with hope lingering yet far. Visual storytelling is a bit lacking, but that is not what you come here to expect. You have been supported with all the exposition you need in previous movies. Since this is the case, it must be judged as a singular part of a series.
The themes in this movie are unity, utilisation, and more importantly; revelation. Kevin Feige has given this movie a lot to work with through these themes and has finally made his magnum opus.
Yes, there are a few hiccups. But that's to be expected. Captain Marvel was not given her full potential again sadly. But worked well with what was given. There is an amazing moment within the third act that truly gives her and a certain cast of characters time to shine. Plus the time it takes to leave out is a bit jarring. Not to mention, that to me Thanos seemed less threatening than in Infinity War because of something that happens. Still great impact by Josh Brolin of course.
Everyone will cry. Everyone will laugh. Everyone will leave sad yet satisfied with this amazing conclusion to the MCU so far. It's no Dark Knight, but then again, that was more drama than superhero epic. But this is modern hero gold. Here is the Holy Grail of superhero cinema.
9.6/10
8/10 After second viewing - Hype obviously had its hands around my neck I admit. Review doesn't meet my current thoughts about the film

Great Spiderman movie and Tom Holland is a perfect fit for Peter Parker. Hearing the score as the movie began got my blood tingling, loved the remix.
Action packed and well done story with Michael Keaton as a fantastic villain to the friendly neighborhood Spiderman. And a great addition to the Avengers.
Terrific movie, one of the best Spiderman movies put on screen. Tom Holland was perfect in the part and the supporting cast were great. Loved the opening score, my spider sense tingled when I heard it! Often really funny and the high school scenes were top notch. Only downside was a rather weak villain with a character arc similar to a Spiderman villain we have seen before. Despite that, you will walk out of the cinema with a smile on your face, especially after the post credits scene. Brilliant!
This episode was truly amazing, the finale brought me to tears.
This show was fantastic and I wish NBC would have given another shot to it because it was truly something special, it might have looked Glee-ish at the beggining but it ended up being something so special and truly fantastic. I'm going to miss it.
After the oh so sucky last episodes, the musical one specially, they finally recovered with this one.
I really wanted to punch Kevin in the face when he was so smug about Zoe's interactions with Tess and Annie. Being an aunt is not the same thing as being a mother. Some people just do not want to have children and that's perfectly fine.
I'm really sad it got cancelled. It had found this amazing middle between tragedy and comedy.
Of course there has to be an amnesia plot in it. this is a telenovela after all.
I always want the best for Sandra for some reason.
I honestly don't know whats worse, the whole cicada thing or the Nora thing. but never forget the iris thing...
Jack and Rebecca are something else, my god.
Okay so this must be our window into Randall getting a divorce!
why did they cancel this show? it was pretty good entertaining. now we won't see the whole plot from A to Z, only A to M :(
chris evans
that is all
I don't understand how the black father can be so racially prejudice. If the ethnicities were swapped, it would not be okay, so how is this appropriate?
Sorry Angelina, you're in the past now.
Alicia Vikander is phenomenal in this movie, and I appreciate the italian version of the movie for not dubbing her "screams" and "moans" because they are fantastic and add to an already adrenaline pumping movie.
The movie is the same as the first reboot game on the "next" gen, personally I did not play it, but I did play the second one and if they are going to make the next movie the same as the game, it's gonna be even greater!
This cinematic reboot is a rollercoaster. Lara's ability to come out of situation is always a bittersweet taste of disbelief that makes you love it even more. But, in this movie they took a nice step back to her and so we get to see a more inexperienced Lara. Because of this, every failed step doesn't look... "fake" as it did (in my opinion) with the original Jolie movies where she was a badass from starters, feared and known by everyone and still went on about and made stupid mistakes which didn't make sense really.
I gotta say that if you let yourself be immersed, the suspense in some of the scenes is thick and palpable. The line between mythos and reality is thin, but it develops perfectly near the end without resulting boring or monotonous.
Regarding every other aspect of cinematography: I have to say, some of the CGI felt a bit cheap, but usually is surmounted by the amount of action the movie delivers, sound editing and engineering was on point, note that there aren't really big, romatic or thought-provoking photografical shots, but it's to be expected in an action movie.
Alicia Vikander is perfect for the role. I absolutely loved her for the entire runtime and she honestly kept my interest up entirely on her own.
I don't know if Square Enix is to be thanked for the level of quality and "textuality" of who Lara Croft is and what Tomb Raider is about, but I think it's a safe bet and I hope it stays this way.
Please if you have the choice, watch the movie in english, it might sound creepy or weird, but Alicia's screams are fuckin fire in this movie, it gives depth and dignity to the struggle of a character that is supposed to be strong.
My god... Does Ava DuVernay know that you can actually zoom out a camera? I've never seen so many "closeup" face shots in a single movie in my entire life. I'll never be able to get Oprah's giant-sized face out of my mind...
As for the movie itself, It's a bit all over the place. Some parts and themes are very well-done, such as Meg's journey to accept herself, while others are really half-baked (especially the relationships between Meg & Charles Wallace, Meg & Calvin, etc). Too many things just get thrown together or just suddenly happen by sheer "coincidence" without a solid lead-in or development. This could have definitely used some additional scenes and runtime to flesh characters and their relationships between each other out a bit more. Reese Witherspoon's character is actually my favorite of the 3 "Mrs."'s. Oprah and Mindy Kaling's characters definitely did not hit home.
Visuals were pretty stunning for the most part, but sometimes went a bit too overboard. Don't even get me started again on the cinematography and editing... This movie definitely had potential and I was excited to watch it, but it just misses out on some major points. It was enjoyable overall for the visual fest and seeing the world of A Wrinkle in Time, but other than that it is just an average film. I'd temper my expectations for sure. 5/10 as it is just an average movie...
Apparently this is just the third $100+ million budget movie directed by a woman. I'm not sure that Ava DuVernay's movie is going to help buck that trend...
JESUS CHRIST THAT WAS A LOT. POOR FUCKING TYLER THAT SCENE IN THE BATHROOM WAS SO DISTURBING. NOT SURPRISED OVER THE FACT THAT HE WAS GONNA SHOOT AT THE DANCE, BUT GOD I CRIED. AND ALSO WHAT THE FUCK JESSICA, HAVING SEX WITH JUSTIN RIGHT AFTER U KISSED ALEX? REALLY?? i dont really know what to say about this season. A lot of things happened, but we didnt really get any answers
NOTHING ABOUT ZACH AND HANNAHS RELATIONSHIP MAKE ANY SENSE. i mean i like them together, but its so dumb
personally...I kinda dig it. That's what TV was missing for some time. whether we like it or not, some will die, and the more we get attached to a character the more interesting the killing will be.
personally I said.
What a fucking way to end the episode. That death came out of no where. Sure tugged on some heart strings.
IF YOU THROW ANOTHER MOON AT ME I’M GONNA LOSE IT
Wow.
Just got back from the cinemas. I think the movie is great.
The mix of humor, action and darkness and some really good twists.
The last 10 minutes are also perfect. Everyone was shocked.
I don't usually write comments, actually, I think I've only done it once, but this new group is fantastic, it's so refreshing to see a person that was so lonely and desperate to talk to someone and be friends with them with no bad intentions and the girl still doing what she did before everything went down, being a journalist, still going with that and interviewing people, I just, I don't know it seems so refreshing and nice.
