Walton Goggins has played some interesting characters in the past, but The Ghoul is iconic.
8/10.
Surreal as Benedict Cumberbatch’s acting is, in “Eric”, the gritty atmosphere of New York City in the 1980s is masterfully captured. Although lengthy, this show is a real gem because it interrogates deep themes.
It's really boring, plot moves at a glacial pace with a lot of filler in every single episode. I watched 5 episodes, and don't really care who did it at this point.
A fitting send off for Jack McCoy. “It’s been a hell of a ride.”
Great season finale. Couldn’t have predicted the outcome
Clearly a step back rom the first episode but mainly due to the over the top neurotic behaviour of Helen and the clichèd subplot of former lovers. Expectedly silly with decent action and fine CGI, though.
Hopefully they get a bit more serious in the upcoming episodes, though.
But I am sceptical that this is going to happen..
I'm so glad that I haven't had to hear "We get our babies back." in the last few episodes :raised_hands_tone4:
Black hole sun! Black hole sun!
This episode deserves a 10 just for that ending montage.
Probably one of the best film ideas in recent memory. It's too bad that Helander didn't follow through on the idea presented in his 2003 short film precursor to this. While the film fails at living up to it's original billing, it is extremely entertaining and will keep your attention throughout. My wife, who rarely likes films like this, said and I qoute "It was good." Well worth a watch.
Someone is thinking this is The Block (Australia). lol
This doesnt belong here. This series only has the 7 episodes
Lol only 6 minutes in and she's already saying "we get our babies back." OMG! Idk which is worse this line used multiple times per episode or "lifeboat" from Manifest.
They should just cut every scene with this worst ever character dr. smith!
I knew regardless of what this new version was people would hate! I’m so tired of people being so critical lol. Nothing is going to be as great as the classic and any version of this movie would be compared to the original. It wasn’t fantastic but I didn’t care because I loved seeing Eddie and the rest of the cast in this light. I didn’t go into watching this for any other reason except the nostalgia of it all, and you should to!
You know there were a lot of things I loved about this film but for the sake of this review and to keep from spoiling too much I'll keep it short. The scene where nothing happens really blew me away along with the part where nothing happens. There's a slow, intense scene that really sets the stage for nothing happening that I found really well done. I also enjoyed the ending that took 90 minutes to get to in which, finally, nothing happens. Really a great film about the ins and outs of nothing going on. Solid 10/10.
This is an excellent example of using a great cast to make a good movie into a great movie.

When a show consistently makes you root for it's characters, smile for the prospect of what is to come and have a sense of hope and "glee" in your eyes and heart you know you're watching something great.
Coincidence that Alexander Skarsgård — aka. Eric Northman — stars in this movie? I think not!
I'm surprised by how much I liked it.
Edit: With the second half of season 1 coming out. In this part, feminism comes out more into your face which is not inherently bad, but a little bit invasive. Despite that, the second half sets the bar even higher than the first part. Really looking forward to seasons to come.
Edit2: Season 3 slightly drops in quality as they are trying to shove in a few too many songs. But it looks interesting as to how they are incorporating other faiths into the series.
not bad but not brilliant either. tonally i don't think it works that well and there's no one to really root for.
- "Hey, you can call my vagina any state, but you do not fucking call it Florida, you hear me?"
- "Fair enough."
this is an infuriating and stomach-churning documentary but it’s well-done and it’s nice the siblings get a chance to tell their story and discuss how this horrifying ordeal has impacted them
very enjoyable show, i would love to see a second season!
the acting was decent, so kudos to each actor in portraying their character. characters that were flawed; they made as many stupid decisions as they made good ones.
but honestly, i loved that this show was more character driven than action driven + the backstories really added depth to each of the characters. i started out disliking all of them and ended up caring for everyone. A+ in that aspect.
the CGI was surprisingly well done and despite it only being 8 episodes, the story did not feel rushed.
definitely worthy of being on netflix tyvm. also this is the first danish tv show i've truly enjoyed watching. well done denmark<3
Well... this was a huge surprise. I only decided to watch it 'cause Robert Sheehan is in the cast and I'll watch anything with him in it. Turns out that this might be my new favorite show of all time. I'm not sure if I can explain exactly why, but it just clicked with me. From the first episode on, I felt a connection with the characters and the story and I loved everything about it. I even restricted myself to watching 1 episode a day, just so that I could enjoy it longer. I know it sounds crazy, but it sounded legit in my head.
Can't wait for season 2. In the meantime, I'll definitely read the comic-books and re-watch season 1 a couple of times.
Gallavich is endgame and that's all that matters.
A really good story of the complexities of family and coming to terms with your past and reconciling that with your present and future. The struggle of loving what you are and who your people are while realizing the deep flaws of humanity.
A really, really good movie.
Am I a team player?.. I chugged a 40 with my asshole!.. I'm a team player
I watched this remake with zero exepectations and it suprised me, as i watched the original 2 times in full i always missed the diversity there, but this cast is amazing and breaks the number one criticism of the original one. They kept some of the dinamics from the first episode of the original show and it feels like another series but fresh, i really want to see where they are going with this, the first 8 episodes were good and got me interest on the other characters, but the fist episode was execptional, the sense of community it had it made me cry.
Already know I'm gonna love this. Weird strange shows like this always gets a thumbs up from me.
Leslie Mann has top billing. Then Ike Barinholtz. Yeah, they are both funny...but John Cena STEALS this movie. STEALS. Pretty much this is the movie you expect as a raunchy comedy. It's funny and I laughed out loud a few times. Worth catching. 7/10
