This film makes believing in fairies cool again.
I think I enjoyed this film.
I say I think as it quite literally caused a cold sweat! I'm not the best with heights - and - the scenes in this film, the realism, I felt transported to that wire; it was terrifying!!
I know it to be be true, but, I can barely believe Philipe walked out on that wire not once but 8 times. Certainly worth a free pass but sadly the 'forever' part of that cannot be fulfilled.
The best trilogy movie so far
I really enjoyed it!
I wish it never ends :P
I seem to have watched a different film to many of the critics. I'm a fan of Sebastian Lelio but the script, the performances and the general feel of the movie, the plot, the ending just didn't work for me. At times, the acting was like a made for TV movie. It picked up in the third act with some tension cranked up. But this is a misstep from Lelio, and not even a hugely erotic scene between Rachel Weisz and Rachel McAdams could save it. Disappointing.
For all international viewers, the movie is based on a Romanian fairytale (“Capra cu Trei Iezi” written by Ion Creangă) and follows the original story quite closely.
It’s another superb performance from Maia Morgenstern with her unique way of transmitting emotions, while Marius Bodochi plays the role of the bad guy in a horror movie superbly - he really is scary.
Speechless.
I love how Marvel is connecting all their recent films and TV shows
Basically the best movie the MCU has so far.
It is honestly so refreshing to watch a movie that is trying new things! i was paying attention to everything every second of it. i'm still not sure of how i feel about the ending, but the experience was totally worth it!
One man and his car. The man's name is Ivan Locke and his life is going to change completely during an hour and a half trip in his car while he talks on the phone via bluetooth with several people. Soon we discover the destiny of the road trip and throughout the film we understand and follow this man's issues.
Tom Hardy is an actor of excellence so even before I saw the film I already knew that he would give all of him as he always does. This film is not quite a monologue but is close to it since the only character we see is Hardy's. He always shows the right emotions no matter the difficulty of the role, and this was hard work. He has the capacity of keeping us interested and using the right tension and despair he is able to carry the film. We really feel connected with Ivan Locke. This guy needs more praise than he gets, so underrated and so great!
This film is definitely good but we do not see what it sells. For me it was a solid drama and not an exciting thriller. We watch a man trying to do the right thing. Against what is heart wants in his head he believes that he needs to assume a mistake not to be haunted by ghosts of the past that lead to the less happy memories of his childhood and adolescence. Another thing that bothered me in the story was the writer's (which is also the director of this film, Steve Knight) insistence on what I am going to call the "concrete talk". I understand that he wanted to prove that Ivan Locke is very passionate about his work but I felt that I do not needed so much of that.
The best thing about it (Tom Hardy's performance apart) is the fact that besides caring about the main and only character we see on screen it made me also cared about all of the other characters and we never see them! We feel their emotions and that was really cool.
Locke is definitely a different film with an interesting cinematography and editing. Doing a film only set in a car on a highway is not an easy thing to do and not even because of that we feel less power but the misleading plot might be your major disappointment.
"Innocent? Who's innocent Wayne?...it's just murder man. Everyone does it, all God's creatures ...in one form or another...I know a lotta people deserve to die... Everybody got somethin' in their past, some guilt, some sin, some awful secret thing...I think people who deserve to die are those people who are not living in the first place. I think there's a lotta people walkin' round right now who are aiready dead and need to be put outta their misery. The wolf don't know why he's a wolf, and a deer don't know why he's a deer...God just made it that way..."
That's wisdom right there!
Jordan Fisher's Those Magic Changes gave me all the feels.
Could have been a better movie...
Jim Carrey's self analysis is devastatingly touching.
Top Movie! Really enjoyed every minute!
Best visual effects I have ever seen. Funny, exciting and lovely.
Well that was nice, RDJ, NICE.
Hotel Transylvania 2 is short on a solid plot but it makes up for that with plenty of laughs and charm. To me the first was just okay but a little lame and cheesy. This sequel is actually a lot of fun and I don't even think it was cheesy at all.
What an incredible script, very well structured. A story that grips you from start to finish, very tense and very well done. The performances are magnificent and the connection between the characters makes everything so much more exciting to watch. In addition to these aspects, the movie is set in the 80s, which gives everything a special touch.
I cried more than one hour because of him! Maybe there is someone who never seen this before so I don´t wanna write here spoiler but he is the best character for me so I cried like little kid when it happened. I was all day so sad from that. I was like a zombie..
This is why I should write reviews straight after the film...
Anyway, I liked this movie. It was surprisingly clever, witty and fresh. It was also self-aware but not in a absurd Scary Movie way. It wasn't a parody but at the same time, it took a stoner movie and just, i guess, made it good. Characters had personalities but I guess the focus was more on the plot as opposed to character development. There were nice twists and it didn't go down a cliche route with romance but didn't feel uneventful for that.
I'll write a better review on a second watch. I promise.
it´s been A LONG time since i had so much fun watching a Movie.
it´s been A MONG time since i want to rewatch a Movie.
best film in ages, lovely.
The best of the full length trilogy so far, We all enjoyed this.
Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans are amazing. The fight scenes... fantastic. BUT PLEASE. Black Panther, Spidey and Scarlet Witch are the real stars of this movie.
20 minutes in and i'm already in love with Humphrey Bogart
Free Fire is simply a glorious riot. Does for guns what Mad Max: Fury Road did for cars.
How do they get children to act like that. The kids were so talented
I watched a fantastic video that focused more on the murderer Chris Watts’ abysmal turn in the interrogation. It focuses a lot less on Shanann (which is a good thing because the documentary throwing mean comments towards her did nothing for the story). Check out JCS Criminal Psychology Chris Watts for a better analysis if you are interested in the case.
