The violence, the class, visuals, audio, psychology and Hannibal's mind control. It is so beautiful I want to cry. I wish I could go back in time and see it for the first time again so I could cry from the psychological and eye candy this show brings. In my crazy head this places as #1 and best show I've ever seen even above Breaking Bad.
"Send the dothraki first since they are barbarians"
"Dragons are our heavy artillery let's keep them flying in circles without doing NOTHING for say 2/3 of the battle. Even if they all stop before a flaming trench and sit there nearly aligned for tenths of minutes. We can not win the easy way this must be EPIC"
"It's a massive invasion of Savage, quick and merciless undead but we like to walk orderly and calmly in libraries"
"By the way, libraries are still dead silent while people are being ripped to shreds outside"
"Hey, look, Arya slipped past 4.000 undead and learned Rey's air saber trick"
"Every major character gets to live even after being surrounded by dead. (jorah and theon were already half dead - oh yeah, theon, seems Arya waited in the shadows while you were impalled too. Go team.".
when the critics are using words like "masterpiece", and Den Of Geek is proclaiming that it sits at the top of the MCU, you know a movie is over hyped, and boy, is Black Panther over hyped. the movie is OK, but certainly nowhere near being a masterpiece, and definatly nowhere near the top of the MCU, not even close. Chadwick Boseman is boring and lacks charisma, the female characters are much more interesting. Killmonger is a boring villain, Klaue was much more interesting, but god forbid a white villain be given the spotlight over a black villain. do i care about the plight of black people around the world? yes, do i care about someone's skin colour? no, its not the reason i watch a superhero movie. people are hyping this up into the movie they want it to be, rather than the movie it actually is.
I gave this a chance, so you don't have to.
Follows the now-usual Disney pattern of employing third-rate talent for directing and writing. Not even Ewan McGregor can elevate this to being watchable - he gets nothing to work with. Don't bother with this.
So in this big battle where "your favourite characters gonna die" they killed like 4-5 totally side characters nobody really cares about and defeated the night king in a lame ass way. Dissapointment is not even the best word to describe this episode.
This episode literally felt like a PARODY.... That is not a good thing
It is as if the dumb kid copying the exam of the smart kid and doing it poorly. It lacks everything good the original had.
It was so bad. I dont know why it had such good reviews. There was no sherlock element in the whole movie. Waste of time really.
The acting in this show is atrocious.
I'm beginning to think the writing team only had three good episodes in them. Getting predictable and drawn out.
Enjoyable enough although predictable and annoyingly cliché at times. Not a fan of the looking into the camera shtick. The enigmas were Dora the Explorer level (pity), which makes me think this was made for children more than for adults.
Liked the dynamic between Enola and Lord Tewkesbury (plus well acted roles). No comment on the phenomenal cast, love 'em all.
Would watch a sequel.
Showing the studio set at the end and beginning was not necessary.
Some blatant writing and casting errors get in the way of this being so much as passable. To name a few:
- They tried too hard to make child Leia precocious. In one scene she's Sherlock Holmes, in another she makes a self-jeopardizing comment or decision, but for the most part, she talks too much and is annoying.
- Reva is the least intimidating dark-side character I've encountered in Star Wars media. The actress is tragically unconvincing in that role.
- Then if those points weren't enough to make the episodes seem juvenile, Kumail Nanjiani's stupid face enters the picture, instantly signalling to the viewer that this show is ultimately some kind of comedy.
A powerful telling of the destructive power innate in the cult of celebrity. This is a really well told narrative of the excruciating rape of innocents and the long term damage of kept suppressed truths. The story is told with incontrovertible authenticity. This is an important film, not because of the perpetrator but because of the heart wrenching destruction that littered his legacy. This is only two testimonies of what was probably dozens of others whose lives were profoundly compromised by one man, masked by an illusion. I think it is also a wake-up call to a society blind to the danger of building its hopes and dreams around, and placing its faith in, the perceived intimacies and hollow promises of celebrity. I give this film a 9 (important) out of 10. [Documentary]
At this point I feel like it might be better to just stop watching as Obi-Wan, one of my favourite characters in the SW universe, will be forever linked to this lazily written show.
I guess Disney thought all the viewers wanted to see is some iconic characters back on screen not caring about how they'd have to do it because people would eat it up anyway. And the worst thing is, they were right.
But hey, EPIC LIGHTSABERS ON MUH 4K TV SCREEN AND VADER IS BACK!!! WOW BEST SHOW 10/10. Absolute joke.
Visual and aural experience to sit through. Performance by De Niro as Neil McCauley is something to behold. The amount of attention Michael Mann paid to details while filming this is insane. The action sequences are unrivaled, both in aural and visual sense. There's a sense of professionalism about them that you just won't get from anywhere else. It's only logical, Mann took all the actors to weapons training that lasted for 3 months. All of the scenes were trained on shooting range with built sets, using live ammunition and 3-4 people at time. The documents 'Making of', 'Return to the Scene of the Crime', and 'The Conversation' are essential and must watch after you've seen the movie. It's one of a fucking kind.
Consider my mind blown! Did I understand the movie? Not always. Was I scared by the movie? Not really, though it did get under my skin. Will I remember this film in months to come? Yes, and you can't say that by all the other cookie cutter horror movies out there. Did I like the movie? Yes, quite definitely, not only for the weird ass story, but for the acting, the camera work, and the deliberately slow pace. I understand how this movie has split people down the middle - as I came out of the film, one woman said "well, that was sh**" - and it clearly isn't for everybody, especially those who favour jump scares and gore over something a little (or a lot) more intelligent. This is a film for those who don't want to be patronised, for those who want to debate a film's merits and plotting, and is for those who want their minds to be stretched, rather than pampered to by lazy directors. Recommended.
If you were to look up "mindfuck" in the dictionary, the dictionary woud bitchslap you into a coma then proceed to surgically insert The End of Evangelion DVD straight into your brain.
Waste of time A bad story. Lots of plot holes nothing is explained. There is No emotion for any of the characters. Rey is so over powered its laughable This Feels like three movies rolled into one. With Lots of wtf moments. This is a pathetic and insulting End to this 40 year epic franchise started by george lucas. avoid this movie at all cost don't waste your time like i did. AVOID.
If you ever wanted a Scott Pilgrim show with barely any Scott Pilgrim in it, then this one’s for you!
You know when your friend keeps talking and talking and talking, jumping subjects without warning and nothing makes sense? Yep. This movie was it. Everyone in the viewing just got up in silence and went home. The atmosphere before and after people watched this movie in the theater was such a contrast it was sad. Just. Sad.
Awful episode. The whole dragon fight does not make any sense. The training grounds are empty and for target practice they shoot the water? No creativity whatsoever. And what is actually the point of this season up till now?
This is by far the weakest season, if it weren't for the cool intimate looks behind the scenes I would not be watching it. The show's format in season 1 worked well to introduce laypersons to the sport, but continuing that now completely disjoints the true storylines . For example, episode 2 was complete nonsense, how are you going to completely ignore Charles smashing into the barrier in Monaco and just say "o he's out with a gearbox issue". The show needs an overhaul and probably try episodes being race focused instead of character focused so everything makes sense chronologically, otherwise it's absolute chaos and half truths, you don't know when the highs and lows are for each of the drivers and teams.
Edit: Episode 7, Ocon's win, no mention of Alonso defending against Hamilton to keep him behind Vettel and Ocon. It's unconscionable to be this lazy with story telling.
it's not bad but it's disappointment compared to Castlevania
This is not the story of Michael Jackson. This is the story of two boys growing up in the shadow of terrible sexual abuse without being able, for multiple reasons, to speak up. This is the story of how they leave that horrifying nightmare behind them and are able to speak their truth. This is the story of how justice failed over and over to other kids who had the mindset to speak up when they were children and who were vilified by the whole world because society was too in love with a singer to believe them.
The testimonies are powerful, raw, real. You can tell they still have mixed feelings, about what "loving MJ" meant for them and how it affects them still to this day.
You are allowed to have whatever feelings you want towards this documentary, except for surprise. The truth was there all along.
Proof that several rating systems have been compromised. Possibly even Trakt. There's no way this dumpster fire is being rated so high. Perhaps I'm in an area with a bad Internet connection, but my 1 Star Weak Sauce rating disappeared 3 times.
What a joke.
A film that initially makes fun of cliches...and then falls right into them! It's not a bad effort though, and this is thanks to Emma Roberts and an occasionally funny script. Its not a film i would go on a second date with but its okay as a one night stand.
A FanFiction turned show, and that show isn't that good. Poor writing, childish dialogues, fair CGI. I have a feeling that this show soon enough will be a train wrecked.
Tolkien is turning in he’s grave!
This is trashy half baked soap opera stuff
