Cocaine Bear presents the spin-off we didn’t asked for Cocaine Shark
Really predictable, poor acting and overall boring.
One could argue that the end is really the beginning of the story, which is left to the watcher to wonder so I understand why some people will dislike it, all in all I liked the atmosphere, style and soundtrack, but the movie does kinda end up feeling like it was more of a presentation of the world and building of it on the midst of the hero's journey of Vesper. It was slow but I really enjoyed and the curiosity about the society in this reality really kept me interested. I don't have hopes but I'd love to see it being explored in a tv show format, perhaps, picking up where the movie left. And no doubt that if you are a Nausicaä fan like myself you'll at least enjoy the aesthetic inspiration of this world.
Can't even imagine the emotional and financial damage he inflicted upon so many women. Victim blaming is easy when you haven't been in the shoes of the other person. I'm glad they got their power back in some way, 'cause many of these assholes take advantage of discretion and these women made sure he was known for who he really is: a piece of shit, like one of them said, pathetic, definitely, and a criminal. Whoever's with him now won't be able to say they didn't know what they were getting into.
Funny as shit. And then sad as hell when you realize it's basically just a documentary.
The real question is why the hell did the guy charge money for snacks at the white house?
If you don't like this movie, wait for next parts. They will be released in the following order:

Just shut up, Meg.
2/10
Like waiting at a bus stop for the scares to come but they're behind schedule so I just ended up sitting there for most of it.
This film is the living thing that brushes up against your leg under the sheets in your bed when you're asleep.
There were many original concepts in this film (the blend of horror and drama, the conflict, the body horror scenes and insect closeups...) but the narrative arc and the ending ate away at the good parts and left the film with some fairly obvious holes.
Still, there are enough elements of above average French horror to make the film worth a look.
Pirates of the Caribbean meets Indiana Jones.
Nice try, just entertaining, not a masterpiece.
Super fun watch.. woulda made a great tv series
Not going to lie, I was expecting hoping for more Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga.
Works as both a horror movie and an examination of the immigrant crisis, with themes that extend to guilt, displacement, and the horrors of ghosts past. A great film, stylish and unnerving.
Halfway through the movie I was already blinking like detective Loki.
At age 88, Clint still has it. I'm a big fan and have seen all his films at least once. I can understand how someone who does not like him finds this movie rather boring. One thing this movie is not is a thriller. But you have to give it a chance and maybe find something valuable in it. You have to invest some time. Nowadays, it is rare to find a slowly moving picture that is not overloaded but straightforward. This tells a story about a man for whom you can actually sympathize, even though he does something criminal.
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.
If you don't know anything about the Watts case, this is a great way to become familiarized with it. And that's why I like this documentary because it's a good introduction to the case and it shows what an absolute piece of shit Chris Watts is, which I believe is something everyone on earth should know.
However, I wish it was more in-depth. I do like the fact that they used all this real footage and allowed them, both Shannan and Chris, to present themselves in their own words. But I wish it went beyond that. There's SO MUCH MORE to this case. I've watched so many videos, interviews, and I also read the case file, which is almost 2000 pages, and I wish they would've explored all that more deeply.
This is one of the most heartbreaking, shocking, and disheartening cases you'll ever come across, and this is coming from someone who constantly consumes true crime content. That much is clear from the documentary, so it's a good one. An important watch!
A good and worthy film; more revenge flick than political drama. And because of this, the film was far more entertaining than I thought it was going to be.
Here is what happened: the writers got so confused by their own story, that they left and got replaced by an apprentice (who actually was just the pizza guy), and he finished the script, leaving everyone so clueless that they called it a day and Netflix released the movie accidentally, because they forgot to delete the file in their trash bin. I'm pretty sure this explains everything!
I’ve seen some fucked up hairstyles in my day but damn.
The script is the only thing that you can save in this poor acting movie. A story that could have been pleasant turned boring. Is not possible to empathize with any character neither understand what is their motivation. Also there are some holes on how Tomás is not able to demonstrate Lara that he isn't lying.
I did not understand the story at all. I waited for explanations until the end, but they never arrived. Very disapointed.
Just 1 hour and 30 minutes of waiting for something to happen, and when something finally happens, the movie ends.
Did you know, that picking something up with your foot is surprisingly easy?
What? No, there's no particular reason for me mentioning this.
Overly dramatic movie, the trailer tells the whole story already and of course it has a "happy end".
The amnesia thing is way too convenient for the premise, waaaay too convenient.
Predictable in every way, shallow characters, nothing is explored whatsoever.
The past of the couple? Only a few hints at best.
Did she ever get her memories back? No-one involved cared about that tiny thing.
She's going to San Jose? What significance does that place have? Never explored.
Her family is dead, we do not know about any friends at all. Her husband was killed.
She's all alone and most likely incredibly traumatized but going to San Jose after 3 months.
Well, okay then.
This movie is uninspired all around. From writing, through acting, to directing/production.
A filler movie for a timeslot not even hiding it, nothing more.
Oh, we fulfilled our runtime requirement, let's wrap it up with killing the perp and skip 3 months ahead for a closing scene.
Cut.
What do you mean, it doesn't make sense?
Velvet Buzzsaw tries to juggle with too many balls in the air. There's the message ball, the satire ball, and the horror ball and, as anyone will tell you, if you have three balls, none of them get enough attention.
As I was watching I wondered why they made Liam Neeson recognizable on the family photos if he wasn't anywhere in the movie, but it turns out he voiced The Monster. I just noticed it, I didn't recognize his voice. Nice.
I'm still sobbing as I write this. The film is very good but it is quite traumatic. It is a subtle meditation on grief (as symbolised by the monster) and will ring true to a lot of peoples experiences. Billed as a family film, though I fear young ones will be too scared by the monster and too upset by the subject matter. Brilliant performance from the young lead and a great script that isn't as heavy handed as it could have been.
That Daily Mail "journalist" is utterly despicable and somehow wilfully ignorant of his role. Solid documentary.
An interesting true story, but one is that is better suited to television than cinema. Still, I hope it raises awareness to those who may be suffering the symptoms of this medical condition.
