It's not supposed to be taken seriously, and that is great. It's not as /dark/ as the original Teen Titans tvshow (or most of DC tvshows, to be honest) but it's silly and funny and that was probably the point. It's a great silly show that makes you laugh. There's nothing wrong with that.
That scene where the prisoners run scared and lock themselves back up when they see ghost rider... priceless.
The action in the end is disappointing since it was rushed. Riggs is told his friend is downstairs with the bad guy. When he's really chasing her with his truck. Riggs suddenly shows up in his car and quickly blows up the bad guys truck with a couple of gun shots.
Otherwise it was nice to have the show back after a two week break. The two leads are still worth watching the show for. I also liked the very end.
for me, this film felt the most like the original series out of the rest in the AOS series! having the crew stranded on an unknown world, separated, and trying to find their way back to each other - nothing feels more 'star trek' to me!
A perfect blend of action, comedy, adventure and what makes Star Trek, Star Trek.
As a trekkie I was not disapointed, it had me laughing, touched and captivated just like I was as a kid watching Star Trek.
This is by far the best movie in the Trilogy. It sticks to star trek ethos and manages to be entertaining at the same time
The last true Star Trek. Such a shame it didn't got the end it deserved.
And No, I don't consider the crap JJ Abrahms puts out Star Trek.
Other than having to mute the god-awful theme song, I'm loving this series.
Ouch. I've watched some hot garbage before, and I'll likely watch another episode at least. But this has some issues. For one, Inhuman society is horrible. Monarchy, castes, those that don't get terragenesis manifestations are enslaved.
And what was up with awkward beach party. I'm glad they shaved off that hair, that was just awful. And Blackbolt is as compelling a character as warm, spoiled milk. I'm struggling to find anything redeeming in this rn.
"The Gifted" had a better premiere.
could someone explain how are they they were able to shave Medusa's hair when only her hands were being held? She was fully conscious and could have taken them all out.
The realism is way off on this show, however, I did appreciate the CIA operative played by Stacey Farber. She was by far the best thing going for this episode/show.
Don't bother with this one...probably the least interesting show in the "highly unrealistic millitary/romance show" category I have ever seen... :P
Underwhelming on many parts with an odd cast making pretty much every character very unbelievable. Acting isn't good either, stressing the unbelievable part. A plot that plays it safe while at the same time the writing tries so hard to make it cool it comes off as incredibly trashy rather often. That way I have a hard time taking it serious or being entertained by it.
As mookie suggests, rather watch Lethal Weapon. That one has more of a humoristic approach but is so much better, admittedly surprisingly good even. If you want it more serious than LW though, maybe watch The Brave or even SEAL Team, whereas the latter is ehh as well. Not sure if this has even the potential of getting another season not even speaking of airing the full first season.
Entertaining Friday night fodder. Banderas is suitably gruff, and Kingsley is suitably Kingsley. Goes perfectly with alcohol.
Efficient action thriller, short on a decent plot but with plenty of action. Switch your brain off and you will find some enjoyment.
Seen this movie about 8 times, recently in the theaters which was great. Hands down, without question, a perfect movie. Okay, it sure does seem easy to knock someone out with just a punch, but who cares. It's hilarious, action packed and the characters are well thought out and funny from their own specific point of view. It's what every "reluctant buddies on the run" movie strives to be but none have ever touched. Perfection.
I actually fell asleep during this one. The Brave takes SEAL Team down every week now.
I've got to admit, this just did not hold my attention and I lost track of what was going on. Some nice special effects from what I saw.
Honestly, this show is more Trek than the current ("Discovery") and previous ("Enterprise") Treks. Yes, some unfunny jokes here and there, but all in all -- it's a Star Trek show (specifically - TNG). Last few episodes (4-5-6 could have been easily TNG episodes).
Star Trek viewers needs a ton of Suspension of Disbelief, with all the aliens and spaceships and transporters etc., but in The Orville - this SOD is harder to swallow, because of the... let's call it... casualness... of the show - which kinda makes it harder to actually implement this necessary suspension of disbelief.
Considering the current Trek show, I am just left wondering why they just don't give Seth McFarlane write a proper Star Trek show. He is clearly up to the task, and Trekkies (sorry, Trekkers) deserve a good Star Trek show.
Saw Molly’s Game today and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great dialogue and wonderfully acted. This is Aaron Sorkins directorial debut, and while it was perfect from that aspect it is a great first outing. The movie is long but it’s well paced so it doesn’t feel like it drags, it feels like it needed those 140 minutes to tell the entire story. The scene between Chastain and Costner at the end is definitely one of the best I’ve seen in 2017. I give it this movie 4 out of 5. Go see it if you have a chance.
Terrible episode, I've wanted to like this show, but this one killed it for me.
Great episode, great writing. I hope the next episode will be on par.
There are so many things that you can't understand if you focus too much on them. However, if you look past them, it may be better. I've made my peace with this show now, it can deliver some really strange plotlines, or maybe some really good ones. I just try to enjoy the action scenes and the dialogues.
If you liked the other ones then you will probably like this one. There is a decent amount of action but man there are a lot of eye roll moments too. The more I thought about it during the movie the more I start to side with WCKD. Those kids need to look at the big picture of the entire human race.
I was excited because I loved Cloverfield! But this cliche filled movie was just terrible.
Except from saying the word "Cloverfield" a few times, There is nothing "Cloverfield" about this movie.
Many unexplained plot lines... And ugh... Tam...
Everyone on the ship talks English, Tam understands English...
She must, Since they have long conversations and Schmidt doesn't translate it.
Seems like Tam refuses to talk English and speaks Chinese instead!
It annoyed me, because it just didn't make any sense.
Really solid film but the very ending disappointed massively for me. Kind of contradicts everything that came before it.
Awkward girl puts herself in awkward situations and has a ridiculous ending. This film is like a slow bullet to the brain.
