Loved this show. Beautiful cinematography that is on experimental side, and haunting soundtrack to match it. The story is slow, but purposeful, and focuses on human struggle. A very believable portrayal of near future. I think they missed with marketing, trying to catch a greater audience, hence the lower ratings. I hope they don't cancel this show because of it, because it is one of the most unique out there. The First will forever be one of my favourites.
Sounds like another Manic Pixie Dream Girl film.
I like my humour either very witty or very crude, and this is neither. Sort of bland actually. But I am watching for Steve Buscemi, and honestly I’d watch him host one of those fireplace channels and be happy about it.
I hate when characters take themselves too seriously. Like, O.M.G. I’m sooooo cool, look at my bitchface. Liam James is the only person without a stick up his ass. I’ll watch it a bit further to give it a fair shot, but the first impression is not good.
Finally watched this movie after avoiding it like plague for years. I always thought of the Girl on the Train as trying to capitalize on Gone Girl fever, but it proved to be a great thriller for a Sunday evening. Hard to watch this woman being a mess for the majority of the film, but once the intrigue grabs you, it's hard to look away.
Four hours! The first part with Caesar was pretty interesting. I loved how Cleopatra's tendrils slowly wrapped around him and turned him into her own personal weapon. She was a great tactician. Second part with Marc Antony was more of the same thing, plus a few underwhelming battle scenes, so it dragged tremendously. The movie regains its pomp and glory once Octavian enters Cleopatra's palace and learns of Antony's death. The subsequent monologues and a dramatic suicide scene really captivate.
Kind of a weird episode that didn’t age well. Haha, women are obsessed with a perfect wedding fantasy to a point of taking money away from orphaned children to fulfill it.
Drunk Baron determined to try pizza pie was the best part of the episode.
I’m so glad Ann simply laughed about the busybody next door.
Powerful first episode. I’m looking forward to more.
A different kind of episode for Warrior. It has nothing to do with the main plot, instead being a rather classic spaghetti Western vignette about a good old saloon fight.
Catherine portrayed here is not very likable, but rather entitled and arrogant. She is not the reserved and empathetic princess she is usually made out to be. Not sure how I feel. Very Starz-y adaptation of historic events. Why would Elizabeth of York seal her threat with a kiss?
What a cliffhanger! I love the twisted dirty secrets.
Hawkeye’s wife needs to stop making out with Cyclops.
Really great visuals, but incredibly painful acting, nonsensical science, convoluted plot, and confused editing really hurt this film. Lots of cliches about self-sacrifice and inspirational speeches of cooperation. Blah blah blah. United Earth Government is the most pessimistic entity imaginable, ready to throw humanity under bus at the slightest sign of trouble. Like multiple times. I love space movies that don’t deal with aliens, and I had high hopes for Wandering Earth, but that is the most I’ve ever been deceived by RT.
If you love Golden Age Hollywood like I do, you’ll marvel at Hail, Caesar! Great cast, great writing, and superb style as brought to you by Coen brothers.
The best episode so far. If only I could get hold of the guy who turned a baby into a vampire and left him in Bronx...
What an incredibly emotional series. I cry for an hour straight every time I watch an episode. The people who gave their lives to prevent a major nuclear catastrophe should never be forgotten.
Since I’ve seen the original Norwegian movie, watching Cold Pursuit felt kind of redundant. I don’t think Liam Neeson is a good fit for a dark comedy like this. The Norwegian villain was much better, plus Kristofer Hivju and Stellan Skarsgard! Just watch the original!
Argh... Mike. We shall not speak his name.
That scene where the two girls get a Lyft from their high school principal and it's uber-awkward? That's the whole movie in the nutshell. Kids, your actual high school experience may vary.
I put off watching this episode for as long as I could, because I knew it was going to deal with some incredibly hard scenes for me. But honestly, the whole thing, the every single minute is so full of sorrow and hard choices that it’s futile to try to shield myself. Just one more episode of emotional torture left that is so well-done, but so terrible. Give this show all the Emmys.
The great and terrifying beauty of a series. Masterpiece.
Stalker is a cinematic equivalent of meditation. Some people will get in touch with the universe, and some will pointlessly sit there wondering what's for supper. I was rather mesmerized once the setting moved into the Zone. The soundtrack is absolutely fantastic.
Oh Edith, I think you’re prepared to throw yourself at any man who paid you even slightest attention. And to think Sybil scandalized the family...
There goes my favourite character :(
That ending lol. I love Cody.
I was expecting a different movie. Speculative fantasy maybe. The premise really sold Yesterday to me. Imagine that nobody in the world but you remembers The Beatles, and now you can become a best-selling artist singing their hit songs. Guaranteed success! How would that turn out? Instead, all I got was a cheesy romantic comedy, and not well-written one either. I lost it completely when Ellie told Jack to abandon the one dream he's ever had to be with her, and it was supposed to be his moment for a grand gesture. You'd never do that to the person you supposed to love! Jack is not an appealing leading character. He spends most of the movie sort of whining and having this aloof look on his face. His "girlfriend" is desperate and annoying, and is just not a good girlfriend on more than one occasion. His parents are dicks. Ed Sheeran's cameos were pretty cute, but no more than that. If you are okay with settling for just another mediocre romantic comedy, then you'll be okay with Yesterday. Music was the best part, duh.
Oh no, a new man appears on Edith’s horizon!
It would have never happened in real life, but it’s good to see the Crawley’s stand by their own. Bates is untouchable.
