Eh. I love Rowan Atkinson and when he is at his best he is hilarious. I had been really looking forward to this show. However after watching the first episode, it's just not that funny. Everything was predictable and most of the "situations" he found himself in were of his own making, not because of the bee. I'd say give this one a miss.
the art in this one was outstanding, and I loved the story about brothers.
I loved the comics and count them amongst my favourites, but this show... This show is so boring. Total snoozefest. And its just been cancelled after 1 season. So, that says everything.
Tried the first episode. Thought it was over acted and not funny. Very shallow. None of the characters were likeable. All everyone seemed to do is shout at each other. Won't be checking out the rest.
If you take away the height subplot there's nothing really new or different about this movie. It's your standard "awkward Girl has a crush on a popular boy who lies and she has a good male friend who has a crush on her plus the mean girl who likes the male crush is being mean for reasons and then stuff at prom happens and Girl changes and is only then finally happy with herself" teen rom-com. Bleh.
This was not good, I watched 2 eps and did not continue.
DIRECTOR: Jensen Ackles
and the band playing live was Kansas singing Carry On Wayward Son. Nice nod to Supernatural.
I know it shouldn't after years of watching short films, but it always amazes me how much story can be told in just 15 minutes. Season 2 was just as good as Season 1 in my opinion. All the "episodes" were great, and while some felt like they had more impact than others, none of them were bad/boring in my opinion. I really enjoyed the variety of animation and the different styles of storytelling. My favourites this season would be "Automated Customer Service", "Ice" (especially for the animation), "Pop Squad", "All Through the House" and "The Drowned Giant". Definitely looking forward Season 3 of this great series in 2022.
Not bad, was interesting to watch and the acting was pretty good, but the story has a number of plot holes.
Watched the first ep. It could have been a great family show that both kids and adults could enjoy, but it skews very young imo. Very made for kids tv.
Jack Gleeson's Wentworth was a cartoon villain. I kept expecting him to twirl his moustache.
Lots of strange plot holes and inconsistencies.
I probably won't watch the others.
This was great and not at all what I was expecting. It starts with an incident of Road Rage between Amy and Danny and then escalates and escalates. But what is great about this show isn't the petty revenge. It's the relationships we see between everyone. Parents and children, husbands and wives, family, friends, business partners etc. It's about how we communicate with each other (or don't.) I expected a fun romp about revenge and got a wonderful story of two people just trying to make their way in the world. Excellent acting and writing, really well done. Definitely recommend watching.
Disappointing. The actors were fine, the movie was just terrible. I found myself getting bored part way through and struggled to watch it to the end.
Season 4 is still funny as ever. The Baby Colin Robinson side plot is hilarious and spot on. Vampire night club is a bit obvious, but still works. Looove Guillermo this season too. Pretty happy to learn more about him.
lol this was hilarious. Those kids will never be bad again.
I actually quite enjoyed Season 1 of this show, but Season 2 is terrible. So terrible. The stories are just dull and not scary at all. I'm not sure that I would even call some episodes "horror". I can't believe this has been renewed for season 3.
Well. It wasn't terrible. But thats the only good thing I think I can say about it. If you read the premise above in the title card, it's not quite that. There was never really any "cat and mouse" - no one really put any effort into finding the teens, just like the teens didn't put any effort into escaping. So many opportunities, so few escape plans. I think the main issue I have with it, is there was no tension. Even when someone did make an effort to escape you weren't thinking of how dangerous it was and how they might be killed, because you never really felt like those kids were actually in any danger. It was very PG. Its worth a watch if you just want something to put on in the background thats light and not scar, where you don't have to pay attention to it.
Urgh. I wanted to like this, but it was terrible almost right from the start. Around the 1hr mark I was thinking it must be getting close to the end, only to check and find out it still had 30m to go. The whole thing comes off as a parody, like something you would see as a sketch on a comedy show. Overacted and exaggerated. And while it is supposed to be a comedy, it isn't meant to be a parody as far as I know. Even Aubry Plaza, who is usually excellent in most things, put on a very silly act for this.
I didn't think this was as terrible as other commenters said, but it wasn't amazing either. It was just your typical "someone gets lost at sea and is attacked by sharks" movie.
It had all the standard tropes these kind of movies have. Disaster strikes, trying to survive without drinkable water, dumb mistakes, blood in the water attracting sharks, multiple shark attacks, getting help only to make more dumb mistakes so the help isn't successful, fighting sharks etc. I think despsite the shark attacks, it was less of a shark attack movie and more of a survival movie imo.
I also think it tried to be something, with the early part of the story about what happened in the bathtub, but it didn't really deliver on that which was a shame.
This was a pleasant surprise, a very underrated movie. I watched it on a whim not expecting much and ended up really enjoying it.
There is very little plot outside the "Princess being forced to marry the Evil Prince" trope. But where this movies subverts the trope is that the Princess rescues herself (with a little help from her trainer, Linh.) There is no love interest or knight in shining armour waiting in the wings to ride in and save the day which was so, so refreshing.
The majority of the movie is filled with scene upon scene of well choreographed fight scenes as The Princess escapes from the tower and makes her way to save her family. And while yes, some of the fight scenes were totally unbelievable, they were still very well done and the entire movie was action packed, and it held my attention from the start to end.
It was fine. Extremely cheesy though. Like, everyone in this movie is super passionate about finding this dog. Everyone. Even the parent who didn't want the dog because of her previous traumatic experience with her dog being taken away (which is shown in a series of dramatic flashbacks). Even people in other states want to find this dog. Everyone. Im convinced that even Cruella de Ville, if she heard about this lost dog, would don her coat made of dog fur, and be out in the woods leading the search for this dog (and not for nefarious reasons.)
Also something I couldn't understand and perhaps this comes from not being in the US but the kid had the dog at college, and I wouldn't have thought people could take their pets on campus?
Mediocre and not at all original. You've probably seen this movie a dozen times before and those dozen other movies did it better. It had a great cast so this should have been a winner, but instead it was flat and boring and really would have been better as an episode in an anthology series.
I was really excited when this was announced and looked forward to seeing the show. But after watching the first few episodes several times, I found it hard to stay focused on the show and my feelings are that it isn't a show I am excited about anymore. All the elements are there for a good show, by all accounts I should love this. But I don't. Not even in a "I'll keep watching and see how it goes" way. It's rare that I give up on a show after just a few episodes, but I am with this one.
I'm not saying you shouldn't watch it though. The show seems to have mixed reviews, so you should watch it yourself and make up your own mind about it. But for me, I'm going to pass on the rest of the season.
Note: I am removing the eps I have watched from my "watched" list, so I don't have to get reminders to watch the rest of the show, and I don't have to mark the show as hidden/ignored. I have seen the eps, but that is why you don't see the "%watched" on my review.
This movie has been made numerous times before. Best friends have a falling out over something and then the power of friendship wins over adversity blah blah blah. The movie had a great cast and so should have been good even with a reused plot, but it was fairly average and boring. There was nothing that stood out as memorable or different. It seemed to consist mostly of slap stick moments of stupidity and women selling each other out/insulting each other along with tired sex jokes. There are much better movies to spend 90 minutes watching.
I'm usually up for a good holiday romance, but about halfway through this I looked at the timestamp and said "omg, is this only halfway through???" and then decided there were probably better movies I could be watching and watched one of those instead.
If you're going to watch this for the 80s aesthetic then you're going to be disappointed. It must have been filmed in 1979 and then released in 1980. It's very much a 70s movie. Disco music, electric lights, glitter dresses, bob haircuts. The dance floor at the prom looks like the one from Saturday Night Fever, all lit up.
Style aside, it wasn't a terrible movie but it wasn't great either. Just your typical slasher.
Did not finish.
It started off great but then devolved into paedophile jokes and dolphin penis.
Don't waste your time with this one.
Fun little comedy about police in New Zealand who investigate paranormal activity. If you get the chance, check out the Official New Zealand Police youtube channel for some COVID-19 public health information featurettes, starring the characters from the show!
It was fine. Based on a true crime case. If you're looking for a gritty mystery where everything is solved, this isn't it. This was more focused on making a point about how women are ignored, dismissed, not believed etc when they report a crime or are victims of one. It starts with the police not really invested in finding the missing woman because she was a sex worker. It continues with them dismissing the mother who wants to find her child. It's a fine retelling of the case and the acting was good, but it didn't leave me emotionally invested in any of the characters and felt a little like a midday movie at times.
