If you enjoyed the TV show... DO NOT WATCH THIS.
It's crap.
There are shows and movies that you have to detach reality when watching them.. Spiderman, Batman etc. But you shouldn't have to detach reality for an entire 2-hour cop show set in London!!
There are so many bad scenes in this, there's no way a serious actor would have agreed to be in it unless it was solely for the $$$$$$$$$ offered if they had read the script prior to signing on.
I could list the bad stuff but it would take longer than watching the movie all over again. Here's one that won't ruin the plot....
Driving in the middle of nowhere - literally, there is nothing there. She folds the paper map and says "We're 3 miles out." They have to abandon the car minutes later (this scene is so impossibly stupid you have to see it to believe it). They get out and she says "We're 1 1/2 miles out." They walk for a bit, come over a crest and see their destination - about 2 miles away.
I won't even go into the absolute moronic things that happen from that point on.
Based on the final scene I think think this is going to turn into a James Bond type franchise going forward... and that's why this movie was made. I won't be watching it.
2/10
A bit depressing, made me feel homesick. It bothers me that other than the rich destroy the small farmer, it doesn't offer any optimistic message or solution. It just says what we already know.
Like a random date, I prefer those that try too hard than not hard enough, even if I'm not going to see them again.
This zombie action comedy was a fun ride, but so far over the top I kept hitting my head on the low bar and now I have a headache.
heavy-handed scores taking more of a leading role in establishing a scene's mood vs a supportive role is something that often grinds my gears (most recent example being the flourishing score in a steamy scene in the first episode of AMC's Interview with the Vampire series instead of letting the on-screen action (heh) and nat sound do the work). 1976 has a loud, very leading score that really dials up the tension...and yet...I liked it! reading some mixed/polarized thoughts among early viewers but the score really takes simple, innocent scenes (kids frolicking and playing in a beachside forest) and turns into something menacing with a repetitive, clicking and clacking score, without the score the scene would play completely differently and because of that I really liked its use
Some say "Athena" has little substance in terms of Story. While this may be true, this didn't stop films like "The Raid" to be great either. Athena has strong imagery and an impressive 10 minute opening-"plan-séquence". Sadly it couldn't hold my attention the full runetime. Amazing camera-work too.
One of the best anti-war movies of all time. I was shaking and had heart racing the whole run-time.
One of the most memorable cinema-experiences I ever had. After the credits rolled, no one made a move for two minutes. Everyone sat quietly and thought about what they had seen. At one point early in the movie almost everyone had also stopped eating their popcorn.
Watch it in Cinema if you can. Watch it in german if you can. Watch it in german with subtitles if you must. Or wait for it's Netflix-Release. But watch "All Quiet on the Western Front" no matter what. And learn from it.
One of the most intense movies you'll ever see.
Slick sci-fi thriller/horror. Well executed but not that engaging for me. It felt like a David Croneneber film (Brandon's father) which is great. I loved the scenes about the displaced consciousness, with the mirrors and the creepy fluids. It lingered with me.
This film is a mirror of the human experience. I felt deeply connected and moved by it. What a ride.
The animation was great. I also believe Apple should put more focus on animation.
Awful, just awful. I had to stop watching after maybe a half hour - it is that bad.
Oh come on.
Enough with this dinosaur / dog thing.
Enough with the crappy mutant dinosaurs.
I want to see real dinos that existed not some crappy mutant dino playing dog.
The premise and script of the movie are stupid as hell, dino animal lovers, greedy humans, laughable warlords buying soldiers/dinos. I guess the writers are 8 years old...
Although i like Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard the only good things are cgi and the last 5 min of the movie.
Enough said, bad movie not worthing more time of my life.
The dance scene in opening credits might be my favorite opening credit scene ever. The rest of the movie is pretty boring, especially Colin Farrell as Jake, even though the concept of an android used to assist in parenting would be cool if done right.
This is genuinely one of the best looking, most stylistic movies I have seen. I love how every character is introduced with a unique backstory and name. The color pallette is also expecional as is the chemistry between the actors, especially Lemon and Tangerine. I also really enjoyed all the cameos. The reason this movie didn't score higher for me was that the plot was not very intriguing. To some people this won't matter as the movie does so many other things well to overcome this, but for me it was hard to keep my attention for the full 2 hours without an interesting plot to invest in.
An extremely fun and well paced movie with a great ensemble cast. Glass Onion follows a similar format to the first film but it is definitely not a just copy and paste. My favorite part was the first act which hooked me into the movie right away.
Once they reach Miles's house, however, the movie unfolds in a relatively simple manner compared to the first film and the ending is not fully satisfying.
I would have really loved an actual murder mystery, not some fake murder mystery game that was solved immediately. And Miles was implied as Duke's murderer way to early on.
very nice one :) I recommend it . a lot's of humor :) well done
Did they use a fog filter when filming this?
Everything Everywhere All at Once is an epic film that is now my top favorite of all time. The movie's storytelling is masterful and the characters are so rich and complex that it keeps the audience engaged throughout the entire film. The film's themes, visuals and sound are all top-notch, making it a true cinematic experience. The film also explores the idea that ultimately nothing really matters, which is thought-provoking and adds depth to the story. Overall, this film is a masterpiece that should not be missed.
And remember: NOTHING MATTER!
I didn't realize this was a Predator movie the first time I saw the poster and thought this was some random horror movie but the positive buzz certainly didn't pass me by so here we are again. After watching it I'm certainly... shocked?
From the get go this did very little to pull me in, be it the CG animals, one-dimensional plot or the the selfish attitude of our heroine. Now obviously one can argue how much that all matters when the action is good but it didn't really scratch that itch for me either... the Predator fighting with the animals was certainly entertaining but random guys biting the bullet with mostly offcam/unclear CG gore not so much. Would have been nice if they showed some wits when they fought him at the camp but somehow him going invisible is enough reason to lower their weapons and start talking to each other. She saw how the camouflage works multiple times in action already..?!!
What all those scenes, and the movie poster for that matter, certainly established, is that our protagonist has little to worry and that a showdown was coming but I would never have predicted the amounts of bullshit that would contain:
- Somehow becomes a baller and expert in alien technology. Knows when the Predator is coming, takes her magic herbs to immediately lower her blood temperature (but is not shivering and still standing up) and is in the Predators path who obviously doesn't see a standing corpse right in front of it or notices her moving out of the way...
- Never used the gun but knows the right angle to shoot and remove his mask (betting on this being a weakness when this did little to stop it before).
- Gets to conveniently escape for the n-th time and has enough time to finish up some traps (which the Predator even hit on some random tree lol).
- Gets hit to the head twice from the shield that cut through the Predators limbs, spear and even stone but is unscathed.
- Can easily remove a fang attached to it's face to save herself just in time.
- GPS dog that always magically reappears is ready to bring her the tomahawk...
- Manages to sit on top of the Predator and even pull him into the bog with a tiny rope and a much much smaller statue.
- The Predator obviously submerges immediately, but little does it know of her the grand plan to have him placed at that exact LOS of the mask in anticipation that he is gonna fire from his gun (despite not having had his mask for the whole time) while he is already targeted by the laser the entire time... b r a v o. Obviously that one shot was also enough to kill it.
...
Honest to god - how does a movie with such a contrived finale get so much praise, or even leave the script writing phase??
The watershed moment of the Italian Republic, its fundamental importance for what it produced in the following years highlighted in the incipit, which is the alternative ending of the true story. A film that does not save anything, neither terrorists nor institutions, much less their ideals. The protagonists of those weeks on both sides are all equally condemned, yet for them it is impossible not to feel pity, their more human side being dramatically exposed.
After the devaluation of the institutions from the point of view of its exponents, Cossiga / Alesi and Paolo VI / Servillo reduced to little men in the 1st part... there it is the identity crisis of the others men in the 2nd, Faranda / Marra and Nora Moro / Buy both executioners in spite of themselves, both who struggle to recognize themselves in a photo-sign and on television. Both witnessing the collapse of the foundations of their social life, the surreal vanity of the armed revolution and the facade hypocrisy of Catholic marriage. Collapse to which they react by shedding a single tear, only when faced with the responsibility for their actions, which they will try to remedy until the very end.
Everything closes by returning to the first point of view with Aldo Moro / Gifuni, however radically another person compared to the one in the 1st part: not the "crazy kidnapper" touted by "ex-friends" but rather lucid as never before, ready to confess the guilty indulgence of the already deceased 'free-Aldo' towards the aforementioned, Andreotti in particular being targeted by a ruthless final invective which bitter mouth considering what the post-Moro Italy's First Republic was and what it could have been without this watershed.
6 episodes to watch at all cost. Despite the television weakening compared to the big screen, the value of many scenes will still shine through their very strong visual and narrative symbolism, Cossiga's 'cyclothymic photography', Paul VI's martyrizing obsession, Faranda's maternal remorse, Noretta's dreamlike affection for a ghost that is finally palpable after 30 years of marriage. And the acting... in particular for Gifuni and Buy, I had no doubts even for a second that they were the real Moro spouses. Extraordinary interpretations compared to a cast that is already beyond the ordinary.
This film was all these kids' very first role and they're still better than 95% of the child actors you see in USA movies.
The original movie was bleak and violent; Sobel's movie is softer in approach. This isn't necessarily a bad thing but you won't get the same emotional experience with this one.
Acting was bad, looks and feels like a low budget movie, and cgi looked so awful. Also, Chris Evans looked so goofy with a mustache, I couldn't take him seriously. :rofl::clown::wastebasket:
I really enjoyed this slow burning mystery. It built suspense well, and while it did feel a bit dragged out the payoff at the end was great. The lead was especially excellent. Looking forward to what comes next from the creators of this.
a movie full of shit.
rarely i saw something this bad.. it's embarrassing...
wow that was really really boring. i guess its the movie with the least amount of dinosaurs.
wow that was something different. i cant rate it yet because i dont understand it yet. but i will watch it again. looks beautiful, feels frightening and sounds amazing.
for everyone who liked this movie, maybe give Lucky (2020) - https://trakt.tv/movies/lucky-2020-08-23 - a chance. of course its not the same, but i liked the approach of both movies .
Movie mixes the concepts of remake, reboot and sequel together to deliver one single uniform experience. And for the most of it, it did quite well.
The original trilogy will always have a special place in our hearts (even though Reloaded was kinda bad) and I believe that's why Resurrections is being slapped so hard by press and fan-base alike. Haters will always gonna hate, trying to find the most illogical reasons to justify the spreading of their toxic opinions but the movie IS GOOD and definitely worth watching.
I hate it when people use the term "career defining performance".
This is a career defining performance from our local boy done well. Such a well made film.
Absolutely fantastic. I felt my heart explode at the end.
