It was everything they said it would be and then some! Supreme spectacle with otherworldly intensity. Fan first was an experience I’ll never forget. A film for the ages. Long live the fighters!
Another one the censors at letterboxd probably hate. Dave's not backing down to offended inc. His bit on Chris Rock was decent, the long joke story he ends with was the weakest bit. But every jab at the alphabet mob was well deserved.
If you use the term "punching down" you're stupid, go away.
My wife acted like she did not like this movie, which is usually a good indication that I thought it was great…which I did. I will say that in a room with all the lights shut off, stretched out on the couch while watching a movie over 2 hours long, she stayed awake, which I don’t think she has ever done, so at the very least this movie should engage you. Visuals were stunning, and helped give the movie that magical feel that I think they were going for. I was entertained.
What an incredible film. The Green Knight is truly a coming-of-age story, disguised with the trappings of fantasy and suspense. The acting, directing, cinematography and music are all done as superbly as one can expect. While some may not enjoy the pacing, as it does slow down at times, it always adds to the suspense that makes this film so compelling in the first place.
You either love him or hate him, there's no real in between with him. The thing is: one needs to understand his way of storytelling and sarcasm and cerebral deep diving he does to dissect human behavior/thinking. If one takes what he says at the surface level, one will likely be "offended" because one does not understand his perspective and one will cast him aside as an "ist" of all ilks. It behooves those who want to watch his sets to do their homework, find interviews with him explaining his comedy and then watching with a humble and open mind, no expectations.
Simple but poorly written light comedy, with a terrible climax, but overall quite entertaining. In some scenes it takes quite a good snapshot of the current social situation in the US.
I really need one uber driver
I don't stand a chance of articulating how this movie made me feel, but I ran the gamut of emotions watching this unfold before me. Wonderment, unease, angst, anger, disgust, disbelief, sadness, despondency, anger again. It's unfathomable that this even happened, let alone how little it's known about by the wider masses. An important movie that is beautifully composed; it's just a shame the subject matter is so ugly and disheartening. I must rally against the negativity surrounding the runtime. I'm usually the first to call out a movie for crossing the 120-minute barrier, but Scorsese's ability to weave such a succinct story makes this one roll by so spritely, I barely realised the time going. I'll probably never watch this again but I’m glad I saw it through, it really is a masterful piece of cinema that proves Scorsese is more than just a name; he’s still a master of the craft, and I hope he’s still got many more projects left in him before he folds up the chair for the last time.
The fighting scenes are off. The pacing is weird and some of the scenes feel rushed. I’m even more annoyed that the military actions don’t seem to make much sense: we’re attacking a base but we don’t do any recon up front despite having a huge drone in space, we’re sending in a single guy to do an extraction, we’re sending a walking robot instead of all the rockets. The world building is really cool, but for me I got distracted by how forced some of the innovations were that didn’t seem logical in many places
It's not like this movie is bad, it's more like it's so mediocre there's not much to it. They took a whole bunch of old cliches from other sci-fi-ish movies and put it all together, but it doesn't work. It's more like a soapy love drama in sci-fi entourage. And all that woke agenda doesn't help either - all good characters are either black or asian, and all bad people are whites.
there was this one beautiful silhouette shot i really liked, it's around that chapter when he was in florida, then his fight with that man was good, especially the sound design, it was unusually quiet for a fight scene and that exact detail is what drew me in
also his internal monologue throughout the movie was nice, Michael Fassbender was great
Boring, then boring, at the en boring. 1 fight that is it, a real one, no a skinny girl who eats lettuce knocking a 250 pound dude, nothing more, no action, bad script, I think nowadays directors and actors just take advantage of Netflix, Amazon, 20 years ago, no one read the script and said, ok let's do this, but today the ppl could watch a show about someone inclusive painting a wall and saying , the best movie, the painter break the mold, he Is not a poor latino, he Is the new freedom, jajjaja. Skip it, I would like to see a korean cop movie or an Indian cop drama dance romance instead, at least those movies are something that i could talk during my lunch.
Lady gaga? Really? Wait and see I guess but I’m not holding my breath.
Lady Gaga as Harleen Quinzel ... ohh noo, what was wrong withMargot Robbie, she played the role superb.
"Monica, you gotta fly"
"I don't know how"
"Use black girl magic"
Oscar winning writing
This looks like something how all historical stories should be told. The new documentary style. It's difficult to say if it will really be good, but the trailer is magnificently done!
During 80% of the movie I thought that I didn’t like it. It’s basically about the perverted relationship of a nymphomaniac woman with her cuck husband. It’s disturbing, sado-masochistic and sick.
Most of the movie I was in disgust, because I do believe that these kind of people really exist. At least, whoever wrote the story, is a genius and a very sick person for sure.
Yes, I was disgusted and annoyed by nearly every character, but yes, in the end I like it because very few movie characters do that emotionally to me. I will never watch it again of course…
is this Will Smith's biopic?
This movie doesn’t make sense and that is a compliment!!!
This is a masterclass in how to portray subjectivity. I was absolutely immersed in this character and could feel the amazement, horror, and divided feelings that he was going through. The directing was phenomenal and deserves much praise.
This movie is legendary. someday it'll become a classic. I don't know why someone is complaing about why they didn't get to explore more of Oppenheimer's character, or what he was. I think that person needs to rewatch this movie. Scene are not snippets, It is complete and well integrated. Yes, they covered a lot ground. Could it have been a miniseries? of course! but saying that this movie fails to integrate different aspect, is completely false. Even character whom had small screen time, did perfect. I think everyone needs to hit theatre, so Hollywood makes more fucking movie like this. which delves deep in character and dark part of human chatacter. Not everything is Pink and happy. I think, you must watch it in theatre decide for yourself. I think I have spent all my penny well. Thank you Nolan.
I guess I'm the target audience for this movie because I think it was an absolute masterclass in producing an enjoyable action movie. Cinematography was great, the story was paced extremely well, and the casting of ALL roles was absolutely perfect.
Cruise, Pegg and Rhames were awesome as always, Whigham and Davis were great additions, but the power quartet of Ferguson, Atwell, Klementieff and Kirby, really went above and beyond in making this movie perfect. Not to mention the chilling confidence of Morales as Gabriel, who practically oozed tangible danger.
From the pre-opening credits scene to the final act, you will be on the edge of your seat - especially during any fight scene that involves Ferguson or Klementieff - and whilst there are moments that the tempo slows down to advance the story, it is always completely captivating.
The single, solitary, disappointment comes as the credits roll, and you remember you're going to have to wait until next year to see how it ends.
just something that made me freaking angry: THEY JUST UNNECESSARiLY KILLED MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS FROM THE ENTIRE SHOW. freaking Wash and Shepard Book. frak!
Hey, you remember that joke when Indiana's son Mutt in Crystal Skull made the joke to him proclaiming, "What are you, like 80?" Well, by the time Dial of Destiny releases in 2023, Harrison Ford will be. What once was a passing jest at the character's long past prime, we've now scraped the bottom of the dig site. Just reboot and get Chris Pratt to play.
Music track, Sound effects were good. Story and Plot, meh and old. The diaz and lady chemistry(they tried) was half baked and out of place. I still don't understand how one piece was in Sudan and other in Peru? and what was she doing in NY? wasn't she suppose to keep it safe, like other primates were trying to. Overall, if someone love autobots, they should watch just for the love and joy of seeing them in action.
After a long time I can say that YES marvel finally did it. James really did it. Thank you James Gunn for this amazing ride.
What value is there to make Aethelstan gay except to check off the gay check box.
The last Kingdom "The message" is what this should have been called. Gay washing an established series is what Netflix et al insists on doing these days. This is at best pseudo "history". Typical woke hive mind propaganda masquerading as entertainment. This movie is yet reason to cancel your Netflix subscription.
I think whoever made this was high AF. It's like they forgot the characters personalities.
Anyways this & the show would have a banger if it had a good budget at least.
It might be dense and boring but I found it very interesting and extremely well performed by Driver and Bening. We all know how FBI and CIA stinks is abuse of power and violations to human rights, but seeing a particular case as well filmed as this one is very eye-opening. Of course you know the end: it is published, how else people could've done the film, but it is more because of the process that because of the result.
