This movie is fucking awful. I enjoyed the last 10-12 minutes of it but I don't know if it was because it was almost over or because of the awesome cameos by Jason Mamoa, Lee Majors, and Heather Thomas and Blake Shelton's cover of the theme song. The rest of the movie is just garbage.
While I gave it the benefit of the doubt there's way too many things wrong here. Not only as part of a franchise with a history, but all on its own.
Reasons this show is not a good Star Trek series.

Another tense and emotional episode. It's phantastic how they manage to keep the balance between the action sequences and the personal stories.
The air battles, already among the best I've ever seen, were once again great. The short slo-mo/time freeze was awesome. So was the fight between the Fort and these fighters. I don't know if something like this ever happened but it sure was a great sequence. But despite all that you never forget that those people were really in that. You flinch when the bullets rip through the fuselage, you wince when someone is hurt. And you feel kinda empty when they sit through the interrogation counting down the losses.
can't believe these episodes are 45 min long! I just hit play and in 5 minutes I see "Next on Masters of the air". Can't wait binge the whole thing in one sitting
Amazing, intense episode. Knowing Buck was their leader and invincible, it makes a lot of sense Austin Butler seemed to be the lead for the whole series. The uncertainty of not knowing what happened makes it hard to believe he is dead. Can't believe only one plane made it out. Next week's episode seems to feature the death camps so will be intense.
Speaking in English with French accents is a terrible choice. (and ze germanz speak English тоо!). It’s a constant reminder of something fake. It’s an outdated practice, indicates that this has been dumbed down, lazy production. Look at any good recent movie or TV show, they let characters speak in their own language.
And whom is it for? Not for people who know fashion history. Silly dialogue, like Coco saying “what is fashion?l”. Unbelievable scenes with nazis. And looks like lower cost production than other series.
On one episode of "Band of Brothers" I once wrote that no show or documentary can ever relate what it means to be in battle. But this episode was tense, it was frantic and you can get an idea what these men went through. And you really have to be amazed that they did it again and again.
The airbattle scenes in this show are through the roof. It's not all about the action, though. We are reaching a point now where losses are becoming more meaningful for the viewer.
What an adrenaline filled amazing episode. Loved it.
I was on the edge of my seat for the whole duration of the episode! This show just keeps getting better.
I have great interest in both the period and the topic. You recognize the similarities with shows like "Band of Brothers" which is a huge compliment as I see this as a very high bar. If this comes even close to that it would be a homerun on my behalf.
I was very impressed with this first part. The flying scenes are well made and I was really tense during the short battle in the skies. But I also like how the depicted the realisation from the pilots that this is not going to be a milk run and many will die before victory will come.
It should be a crime to make a racing movie this boring.
Race for Glory: Audi vs Lancia starts quite interesting but as soon as we get into the 2nd act and then the final act. It becomes extremely uninteresting and the pacing is flat even the racing scenes couldn't help it, those weren't terrible but just overall ok. I simply didn't care about the characters or the outcome of the story. The main character felt kinda obnoxious and Daniel Brühl was sadly underused.
It's not a car crash of a movie that's for sure.
i loved everything about this show ! and i can't wait to see the last 2 episode
Listen up, folks! I gotta confess something here. This show has got me hooked like a fish on a line. And let me tell you, the lead character is the bee's knees of 2023 television.

This show is very quickly becoming my favorite show of the year.
It has everything from a very good writing to impeccable performances by an extremely talented cast, down to the kids, an excellent cinematography, great costumes and decors, not to mention a heart wrenching story of love, loss, sex discrimination and empowerment of a woman who just refuse to let the patriarchy (and remember this happens in the 50s) dictate how she should live her life and fights back in all the ways she can.
It has all the makings of a single season show, but even if it does not get more, in itself it's gonna be a treasure to re watch over the years.
WOW. This is a masterpiece of storytelling. The casting was stellar and the performances were magical. The cinematography captured the grittiness of occupied France and the horrors of the invaders were on full display. If I have any complaints in the storytelling they might be twofold, all Germans were portrayed as the darkest of evil (I don’t believe it was that black and white) and the connection between Werner and Marie was a little too much of a rushed fairytale at the end. But, the whole was a wonderful romantic journey, in the classical sense of the power of lofty ideals rather than in human attraction. I give this limited series a 9 (superb) out of 10.

I'm not feelin it. From the opening scene where the girl discovers her superpower via her period to the bulimic shrinking girl the show has all the creativity of a bologna sandwich. Forcing current teen issues into storylines to make it seem relevant and topical. The same as "The Boys" and "Supergirl" went. Television writers who force pablum on viewers like this should have been left on the Picket lines and Studios should have hired more intelligent and less sensitive, less emotional and less fragile writers. It's a wonder they can get any writing done at all since I would imagine they rarely leave their apartments and spend most of the time crying over "mean" people. I think that not every form of entertainment needs to be a lesson to society and should not be a form of social justice. They are just perpetuating the stereotypes of the depressed, anxiety ridden teen and the cruel, cruel world they think they live in.
First thing wrong with this upcoming movie: it stars John Travolta, who can't act to save his life. Second, it's John Travolta with a "southern accent", I didn't have to watch the trailer to know he couldn't pull it off and, well, he can't. Third: It's John Travolta with a southern accent in a cowboy hat, now it's just getting silly.
Travolta is a discount Nick Cage, just taking every action flick to come his way because he needs the money so he just phones in his roles in this long string of D movies (he's gone below B and C movies entirely). His last watchable movie was Wild Hogs, which wasn't a great movie but the supporting cast made it tolerable and they offset his terrible acting. Looking at the supporting cast of THIS movie, it doesn't stand a chance to be tolerable.
Incredible finale! But man, it's going to be a pain waiting for the next season lol.
I simply cannot stand such singing stuff. Totally throws me out of the universe.
Strange New Worlds is still the best Trek in ages. So great <3
So this episode released early (and also has lead to the rest of the episodes being brought forward a week) and I genuinely could not be happier with it. It's everything I ever wanted it to be and more and will definitely be something I watch over and over again.
Wow what a ride. So much to process. Good laughs and also some tears. Will need to watch it again. Thank you James Gunn for the Guardians of the Galaxy
S2 felt boring and i lost interest.
This crap makes me wanna rewatch the infinity saga. Ill do just that
Oh god was this lame. Jonathan Majors, Paul Rudd, and Kathryn Newton sell the heck out of their roles but the plot was so weak. Some cringe acting by the side cast too. It felt like the actress who played Gentora learned to act by playing her role in the movie. The Quantum Realm was completely unimaginative. Most of it was like Star Wars, Kang’s minions were stormtroopers, there was even an Avatar realm in there. Zero points for creativity.
Like I said at the end of Thor: Love and Thunder, Marvel is SO done.
The screenplays of these Marvel movies seem more and more tired every time, the same things and plot twists seem to happen every time. Does it still make sense to keep dumping millions of dollars on them?
Overall, a pretty bad start to the MCU Phase 5, as the plot (which there was almost none of) was morbidly disinteresting and at times excruciatingly dull. Yes... there was action and the CGI was okay, but no where near as good as I thought it would be. Cassie and Scott's relationship prominently shows how Marvel are running out of original ideas.
Why is trakt showing season 3 in up next? Sort yourself out!
Like a vest in a 3-piece suit, sure it's not trendy right now but that doesn't mean it can't be cool.
David O Russell delivers a film in a classic Hollywood vein, where a mad doctor and a black lawyer in 1930s New York stumble on a plot to overthrow the US government.
Like a cross between The Hudsucker Proxy and Nightmare Alley, the strong cast (there's only one actor I have difficulty with), true-ish story and flawless directing make for a solid theatrical outing.
I really enjoyed the movie, the acting was great, camera work was good, and overall it was good. I do understand people saying it doesn't have any suspension, but I do like it that way, a story telling easy movie to watch. Casting was amazing with a lot of guest stars, which I liked so much.
