This show has nothing exceptional about it at all. It's pretty lame and cookie cutter. Disappointing.
I can't watch Robert Pattinson as Batman. I'll just watch the Dark Knight again and again.
Quite entertaining despite all the bad reviews. Critics are just tired of Jack Sparrow I think. They are not tired of Fast and Furious movies though ?
The movie is fun and better than the 4th one. Kaya Scodelario makes a good addition as Carina Smyth. Who gets either confused as a witch or...a whore because she's a horologist lol. There's plenty of humor like that throughout that makes this one of the better Pirates movies.
While Javier Bardem once again makes a great villain as Captain Salazar. Who from the trailers you probably figured out, is a spirit wants vengeance on Jack Sparrow.
Otherwise stuff, like the search for Poseidon's Trident is as silly as the search for the fountain of youth in the last film. Also don't expect too much Orlando Bloom but it's nice to see him back nevertheless.
If this is the last one I wouldn't complain since it's a fitting ending.
Worst Batman movie ever. Those costumes were a joke(And so we're the actors). At least the Batmobile was cool.
Lost all interest when Catwoman made a woke comment about white privilege. Wasn't good before that and turned it off after that comment. Don't waste your time, worst Batman movie to date...
3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Halloween Ends’:
You’re tasked with creating a franchise-ending chapter of a legendary horror series with the iconic star/character that started it all, and this is what you put together? A “final” Halloween film that’s barely about Michael Myers. GTFO. Missed opportunities GALORE.
The relationship with Laurie and her granddaughter starts out healthy and promising. A nice setup for chaos to ensue. Two seconds later, Allyson is ready to ditch her family for a random dude. So many out-of-character moments that made zero sense.
This wasn’t the film to introduce (and focus on!) a character like Corey. Maybe mid-franchise this could have been done to mix things up a bit. Friday the 13th kinda sorta did that, where the killer wasn’t always Jason. But NOT this time, not when you’re touting a final face-off between Michael and his Final Girl. You’re setting your fans up for disappointment.
Bonus Thought: I’m officially pretending that this new trilogy never existed, back to when Laurie Strode was Michael’s sister and everything made sense.
Ok, so here is why this is one of the best James Bond films ever made. It does a spy story in a pretty close to realistic way. Now, I'm not saying I don't like some of the more over the top things in other films that much. I just love that this feels like it could have happened around a pretty enjoyable agent. However, it is still pretty damn fun to watch unlike some "real" spy films I've seen. I think Connery is really high into his role at this point, and stays that way for a few more before he gets bored.
All the other actors are great in this too, especially the bad guy who goes on to fight a great white shark in a Spielberg film. And a lot of people underestimate the quality of cinematography. I love the entire train scene. It is so long but flies past me it is so good. Anyway, make sure you watch this one if you're interested in Bond a little bit.
They couldn't keep track of the wigs? Very pink (we saw her painting), blonde, ash blonde, dark roots, no roots... all in the same episode/day
Amazing film with adult themes and humour throughout. loved watching it and can't wait for release to watch it again
Everyone is breaking their back to say how much better this version of Batman is. I think it is just "okay." Certainly gritty and dirty, but not all that "super hero-ey."
I think I'll just watch the Gotham TV series if you don't mind.
I don't know how anyone could not enjoy this movie. Streisand is delightful as Dolly Levi. All the other characters were so well done and the movie and all of Dolly's manipulations are fun to see unfold. And the music is so great. The songs really stick with you and you'll find yourself singing along.
In fact, you maybe even recognize parts of this musical from the Disney movie Wall-E. This is the musical that Wall-E watched over and over again, that he danced along to, and that inspired him to want to hold hands.
What was really disappointing was that this didn't really follow in the footsteps of the original Jumanji movie. There was no need to title it "Jumanji," they just set me up for disappointment.
The original film had such a great format, they roll the dice and some new danger rolls in, and they have to survive whilst still trying to carry on with the game, adding new dangers every time they roll. It's what made Jumanji, Jumanji. The new film didn't follow that at all.
The characters were all sucked into this Jumanji video game with 3 lives, so there was no real danger. It's their in-game "avatar" that dies and immediately comes back, rather than any consequence, so the exciting danger that the first movie had wasn't there.
To add to that, the effects and scenarios that the characters are put in just aren't as good either. The first Jumanji had monsoons, swarms of dangerous animals, stampedes, all coming out of this board game into the real world. In the new film, the Jungle may as well not be there, the main threat is a gang of people on motor cycles. A few different poorly CGI'd animals make brief appearances.
It wasn't very funny either. The trailer probably shows you the funniest parts, and even that wasn't particularly funny. It wasn't an awful film, it just wasn't good.
Jumanji 2: Bored Game. They took the original idea and sucked all the charm from it, leaving a film where the game aspect is only cosmetic cover for a run-of-the-mill action movie.
Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is a tribute to Robin Williams because watching it will make you miss him and his irreplaceable talent all the more.
Still, there was one bright spot. You can play a drinking game where you must drink a shot every time you spot the piercing hole above Karen Gillan's navel. Call it, Drink Like a Hole. It'll help you forget this wasted opportunity.
So far, this is a decent start of a promising story.
I've never seen True Detective before, but I'm jumping in here because the supernatural element, diversity, queer cast and characters got my attention. It's great that each season is its own show, if you don't like 1, you might 2... there's something for everyone.
Also, "The Thing" DVD placement at the lab was a beautiful reference and inspiration tribute.
"Don't mess with the class of 99, bitch!"
Crazy that is has been 10 years since this came out. I remember thinking it was crazy that it had been 9 years since American Wedding came out. This one is still pretty funny and I also felt sad seeing them get old, but dammit I want one more in the series!
In my opinion American Reunion is the second best in the American Pie series just below the second film; better than the rest. Seeing the entire original cast back even if some of them were only on the screen for no more than minute felt very nostalgic, and American Reunion did a wonderful job playing off of it. If you are a fan of the series then you will love this film. This film was hilarious, and had a lot of good heart. As mostly others are saying, American Reunion is a very satisfying conclusion to the American Pie series.
this and the benny hill show on the weekends was great.
[7.2/10] I gotta be honest, it’s kind of weird to see Star Trek going for the whole Pixar vibe that this short seems to imitating. It doesn't help that the characters have a Polar Express-esque Uncanny Valley problem in both the real world and the storybook one. There’s a semi-odd tone that doesn't really track with anything else we’ve seen in the franchise.
But that’s kind of a good thing? As one of like twelve people who watched Star Trek: The Animated Series, it’s nice to see the franchise using the medium of animation again. And while I don’t know how I’d feel about this as part of a regular episode, these shorts should be for doing something different and experimenting.
I’ll again admit that the actual fable Michael’s dad imparts to her is a little generic. But despite the off character designs, the environmental and particle effects were really cool and created an interesting mood for the piece. The overall theme of the light inside, the boldness of exploration balanced against the fear of the unknown, and the literal representations of those things, were all well-done. The bedtime reassurance frame story was a little cheesy, but did what it needed to do.
What’s funny is that, outside of a very small handful of episodes, Trek isn’t really aimed at kids. That’s not to say it’s not accessible to people of all ages. (I certainly watched TNG as a pretty young child.) But at the same time, there’s a certain kid-specific tone that “The Girl Who Made the Stars” puts on here that I’m not sure we’ve ever really seen before, even in the 1970s animated show.
Overall, I can’t say I was chomping at the bit for more of this, but (a.) I’m probably not the target audience and (b.) it was, if nothing else, interesting to see Trek attempt this sort of thing.
"Wouldn't it be better is he shouted up her skirt?"
"Nobody is shouting up my skirt saying they recognise the face!!'
The first is much better, due to the late great Robin Williams and musical score by the late James Horner. Welcome to the Jungle lacks the fantasy, mystery or excitement of the first.
I say "first" because this is actually a sequel that starts out right after the 1995 film. That film had it's goofy moments but this one is mostly goofy. I also think there was more to the board game plot of the first. Since there was more surprises with that plot.
Welcome to the Jungle is more Pixels in the Jungle with Breakfast Club like characters. Doesn't capture what I liked about the first. Yet, it some how has 77% good reviews and the superior 1995 film only has 50%.
Keke and the rest of the actors were fantastic. The storyline was OKAY. The movie itself was confusing. I still have no idea what the hell I just watched.
