Pretty decent action movie with an okay plot. Nothing spectacular, but it's not bad.
Just one question: Why do the people inside act like they're starving?
There's a bunch of cows roaming around near the wall. At this point, they don't need to resort to cannibalism anymore.
I think the problem with this movie is that it assumes you've read the comics before you watched this. I hadn't and so to me it felt like the story jumped all over the place and lacked coherence.
Ultimately, the documentary really makes you wish that Jodorowsky's version of Dune had pushed through. It would have been vastly different from the original novel, but I think it would have amazing in its own way.
I really liked Legion so I had high hopes for Dominion. The premise is great and the sets and costumes are cool but the execution was kind of shit. I don't feel for any of the characters and the acting's flat and boring. It's like watching a trainwreck. A boring trainwreck
The movie feels like an episode of the Justice League animated series. For some people hoping for something grander, that's a bad thing, but for other people who love the DCAU, that's a good thing. Best thing about the movie was the chemistry between the members of the League.
A bit too slow for my tastes. I didn't like Su-Mi at all and it wasn't nearly as scary as I'd hoped it would be. Though I do like the fact that you end up going, "Oh, shit," when you look back at the rest of the movie after the twist was revealed.
While it's a decent movie, it doesn't really do anything new when you compare it to the first movie. There was a hint of a bigger sort of conspiracy thing at the end, but it felt tacked on, wasn't really felt at any other point in the movie, and we didn't get a third movie so it was more or less pointless.
This was HILARIOUS. New fans of the franchise will have no problem keeping up but there are also a lot of nods/references for the older fans.
This is the greatest thing DC will ever produce. If I could give it a 20/10, I would. It's ridiculous, completely extra, and an overall wild ride.
On paper, the movie seems like the kind of thing I should be really into, twist and all, but it just fell flat. It was more like an entertaining but forgettable Bayformers movie rather than a sequel to Pacific Rim.
The humor and the more serious parts weren't balanced as neatly as they could've been but it wasn't too jarring. I don't mind the choice they went with for the big bad and I thought it also made sense for it to be Enchantress. El Diablo was kind of the breakout star in this -- I wasn't expecting to like him as much as I did.
The movie's not perfect but it's still an over all fun ride.
If you like grittier movies, you'll enjoy this but if you're looking for an upbeat and happy Superman, this movie isn't for you.
I understand where the people who dislike Man of Steel are coming from. The things I dislike about it are the same things they dislike. The difference is that the things don't bother me as much as they do others, mostly because I like darker movies in general.
I think Man of Steel's biggest fault is what they did to Pa Kent's character - it's so jarring seeing him be so callous about other people's lives just so Clark could keep his secret. I understand advocating caution but letting a bus full of kids drown?
The special effects weren't as polished as the previous movies, the acting was stiff, and the movie as a whole wasn't engaging. Surprising since the first two movies were pretty decent.
