Oh hey, it's February the 2nd, let's re-watch this for the umpteenth time. :D
Possibly Shinkai's best work so far, and as a massive fan of both 5cm and Garden of Words I do not say that lightly. The animation is breathtaking as always but some scenes go beyond mere visual splendor and are just mesmerizing. The characters are so fun to be around and you'll find yourself rooting for them and hoping it all works out. I was slightly concerned when I saw the "boob fondling" scene in the trailer but even that becomes a genuinely charming gag throughout the movie, believe it or not!
As to be expected of Shinkai, the film also takes you on a roller coaster of emotional highs and lows and keeps you guessing how it will end until pretty much the last minute.
I cannot recommend this enough.
There was nothing enlightening here. I felt that the engineering from social, psychological, computational, and mathematical aspects were interesting and should have been explored more, since they essentially glossed over the misinformation campaigns running rampant on every social media platform the world over. Even if this doc would've focused on regulation, or the lack thereof, that would've been something, but they chose to not call any entities out, remain middle-of-the-road, and out of the fray. I think that this topic would've been much better served as a multi-part series that explored the various ramifications of social media, rather than 90 minutes of glossed over, big-picture fluff that didn't hit at the heart of any of the numerous implications caused by the inherent designs of social media platforms.
I will say, however, there were far better recommendations for how to combat this ever-present problem in the last few moments of the film, while the credits rolled. The director had the interviewees each list methods they utilize to prevent overexposure to the ills of social media to them and their families.
It makes me feel like an unsophisticated swine but this was so incredibly boring. Took me 2 months to watch the first hour, maybe when I am old I'll be able to appreciate it.
Don’t read the comments or reviews, just fuckin watch it. Not for the Evas, not for the fights or the quality of the animation, watch it for the best delirious poem around, This is not anime or entertainment whatsoever, this is pure art.
I do not usually comment, but is too great movie!, animation, story, feelings ...
This is how DC's Movies should have been made. It's action sequences are insanely awesome. Amber Heard is drop dead gorgeous like a goddess in this movie. Jason Momoa is born to play Aquaman. Perfect castings. Don't miss this amazing movie guys.
Tom Hardy, a good actor, always puts on a good show and definitely the right casting choice because It works well. I thought the movie was decent with a good plot easy to follow and some good effects with plenty of action but with a slow start and didn't expect It to be full of humour. My only downer was that It was a little rushed, also I feel It would of been so much better If It was (R) rated.
The music, animation, story. Absolutely beautiful movie <3
Surprisingly overrated. It is worth watching once, but not worth a return visit. It is very predictable, right from the beginning.
It would have been better suited as a made for TV SYFY movie.
Okay so walking into the theater I wasn't exactly expecting much however wow I was blown away complete must see
I had no idea what to expect from this film and I actually really enjoyed it. Highly unique plot, loved all the alien creatures, spectacularly aesthetically pleasing visuals! Overall an enjoyable choice.
An unexpected science fiction tv show that brings out the adventure and comedy with a unique bunch of characters. I love Seth MacFarlane as the Captain with his own complications and personal issues which have plagued him. Love the characters and the way they were portrayed, and you can feel the comedic punches from MacFarlane already thrown into the mix.
The SciFi part is good, just enjoy the ride, I for one really enjoyed the first episode and seriously can't wait for more from The Orville.
DC has finally did it! Not only is Aquaman much better than any of the Marvel movies, it's an awesome movie on its own. The pace is good, music is good, humor is good, and visual is awesome! Wan did a great job displaying the beauty of the deep ocean.
The paradigm of material being cut from a book to fit into the run time of a movie doesn't really apply here because next to nothing from it happens in the film. It bares little resemblance to the book at all and is completely shallow for it. Conservatively I'd put it at 10% of the book translated to the screen in a recognisable form.
It should be "Inspired by" rather than "Based on" however I didn't find it that inspired at all. It's unbelievable to me that Cline himself handled the screenplay, at least in part. People that love the film will be thoroughly disappointed by the book, especially the PG-13 crowd the film brought in.
The Oasis itself was done an utter disservice by portraying it as basically just a game, it was so much more than that.
Disappointing.
I don't get these ratings. What did people expect when they went to this movie? I mean, come on, it even has "Hardcore" in its name... I've been a fan of Ilya's work for a while now, ever since I saw his Biting Elbows clips on YouTube, and I've funded this movie as soon as it hit Kickstarter, and then I bought tickets to the cinema too, and I don't regret a thing. My expectations - brainless run'n'gun, violence, blood, explosions, gore, loud music, with a good share of comedy - were fully met, and then some. Crank got by without a strong plot, why does Hardcore suddenly need one? Scene transitions made sense, why would you need anything else in a pure action film? 10/10, will watch it again, once I get my digital download.
Ignore the reviews, this movie is actually pretty funny, I wouldn't go as far as saying it's better or worse than A Million Ways to Die in the West. The script is supposed to be stupid. We've seen much worse in the cinema's over the years. Enjoy or not, each to their own opinion. Myself, even though I'm not the biggest Adam Sandler fan, it actually works well, massive cast Steve Buscemi and Dan Aykroyd make an appearance as does would you believe Vanilla Ice. Just take it for what it is. Fun.
While I can understand, people enjoying this film or even holding it a personal favourite the accolades it's getting and being passed as movie of the year is laughable. It has a very nice theme and setting which makes for a pretty looking film but the story is so one note with fairly one dimensional boring characters (the antagonists are so unbelievable) with a fairly on the nose basic story. Ignoring that the logistics and execution of the whole thing seems ridiculous and lousy what with how unsecured and awfully maintained the lab is etc. It's a passable movie to me with no rewatchability
IMO the best combination of action & humor ever made!
...including some lies and overreacting. the few facts are abused to make it appear this "opinion" or better "limited point of view" is the only solution.
No Question most people eat to big, unhealthy and to much meat.
But are animal-eating animals unhealthier than plant-eating animals? Are they extinct? No! It has more to do with exercise.
"Casein is addicting" No! All things you do (eat, move, learn, toilette...) trigger the same reward system in the brain for a reason.
An Egg containing all nutrients to create a new life - in their opinion egg yellow kills you. lol
It's 2017 and they still think cholesterol from food is harmful for the body.
What about insects animal protein? Why became the dominant species on this planet an everything eater?
... and so on.
propaganda movie which could have been perfected with a narrator voice of Putin or Erdogan. The same kind of movie could have been made for "only eat meat, plants will kill you"
learning sustainable nutrition not with this "documentary". you might want to go vegan for reasons, but not for this.
just brilliant...
Spectacular on the outside and a big, empty nothingness on the inside. Couldn't believe how it got 13 nominations at the Oscars.
Awesome! Laughed my ass of, the whole evening!
Flypaper" - is the best movie that i have seen all year long! It Twist and Turns past the Twist and Turns - BRILLIANT! Best "who done it" movie EVER!
Shitty film, classic Hollywood action/comedy film. Nothing special, everything is bad. If only Brad Pitt would have been more in the movie, maybe it would have been watchable
4/10
This movie has everything going right. It has a funny, yet a heartwarming themes and sequence that fallows troughout the movie without it being too much nor too fake. It's a movie that makes you feel joyful and emotional from time to time while laughing out loud fallowing with tears going down your face because of how well it's inclusion of this sprinkled heartfelt dramatic moments that continues to be presented in the movie without inturupting the main comedic factor of it. Another great aspect this movie has is that, non of the themes showcase in this movie overpower one over the other. Amazing heartfelt joyful comedy.
Great episode, but it didn't feel like Black Mirror. It's missing the sci-fi element, the dystopian topic, the futuristic technology aspect.
