Legend has it, that the script took forever to finish. Every time they finished a line, it disappeared
The first 1/3 part of the movie is really great and i was thinking, wow that's a great one. The next 1/3 of it was only meh and i started to be stupid. The last 1/3 of it was only awful and stupid. Specially the ending. It's really sad they messed it up.
The real question is why the hell did the guy charge money for snacks at the white house?
If the point of this movie was to confuse the watchers and setup a second movie than they succeeded. What was the point of this movie? Was this supposed to be a Jigsaw (SAW) clone, if so than they should spend some time researching the SAW formula. The bigest question I have after this movie is "Why".
Finally, a good sequel. Good god the animation, it's so beautiful. And the action was so smooth. Also, Pixar better gives us a short movie about Edna babysitting Jack-Jack.
These ladies are HILARIOUS! I really enjoyed watching this. I laughed out loud a whole bunch of times and really love the actors in these particular roles. I can already see several long-term quotable lines coming from it. Chris Hemsworth was also a riot.
While it's probably technically a remake, this movie has its own original plot and its own original characters. I'm glad for that. I loved the nods to the original without (always) hitting you over the head with it. Keep an eye out for some old friends.
Having said that, the movie does drag a bit around the 2/3 mark before kind of getting its mojo back for the finale. And make sure you stick around through the credits (which go by surprisingly quickly)!
There are going to be people who will hate this no matter what. But don't pre-judge this movie based on the trailer. Give it a chance and you may laugh as hard as I did.
Great movie, I loved it. And the less you know about it before watching, the better.
Messed me up in the best ways. Unreal film, needs to be watched with zero spoilers to have full impact.
Random person: "Do you always get teary eyed on Snapes death scene ?"
Me: "Always..."
With a different cast, this premise could make up for a nice thriller. However, this isn't Capricorn One, and I couldn't shake my sense of disbelief: the cameras and tape recorders they show on frame, are all from different ages (the wrong ones), so is the clothing, vehicles, and the vocabulary is American-contemporary. There are a few sequences that are good, and made me keep watching, but the ending is a complete letdown. One tidbit: the front projection screen technique wasn't first used or developed by Stanley Kubrick. It has been around since 1949 and it was extensively used in the early 60's, so it's unlikely that bright film students (as the protagonist are meant to be) that love international cinema wouldn't be aware of it.
I watched this to the end because I couldn't believe it could be so bad the whole way through. I was wrong. What a terrible movie.
The film isn't particularly great but it did build up a sense of mystery... until the end when it explains everything in heavy exposition. A mishmash of genres, Clinical is never quite sure what kind of film it wants to be. Badly in need of therapy.
So she has a fancy security system but doesn't lock her keys or windows?... Okay, but then it's your own fault if you die, stupid.
So much more than a love story in space (lazy critics), this is a visually beautiful space epic. Its Gravity meets Titanic meets Silent Running. Recommended.
