It is not worthy , you can go and have fun with your friend and enjoy the company but you wont enjoy the movie , it is boring and always looking for something to say and yet u don't get what they are trying to say. it is all set up for the third part and nothing for this part . complete waste of time people.

Kinda like a great trailer can mask a lame movie, this show's first half hour places an intriguing setup against a beautiful atmosphere - and then the plot gets going and it all turns to crap. Uneven acting, overly obtrusive music playing during scenes that haven't earned the emotional resonance they're trying to give them. And the slow-motion. Ughhhh. Make it stop!!! This huge sci-if fan is out after two episodes.

I just don't know where to to start. Utter drivel in every way. Not just nonsense, but spectacularly tedious nonsense. Good luck. Enjoy.

Season three is so bad...almost unbearable to watch. Like nothing happened. The only good thing happened is the acting of Wilson Bethel. He has the full packet. He just need to work a little bit more his expressions and he will be a great actor. Some how he reminds me Hugh jackman.

I enjoyed what was there but it needed more. They could have easily made it closer to two hours and have Venom and Carnage face off more than once. The first time they meet is the end of the movie basically.

Positive: Good visuals e.g. the trenches whether accurate or not. But: Right off the bat I was alerted to potential problems w/some incongruence beginning w/the contemporary hand clasp & quickly followed by everyone without a speck of mud on their clothing. Next the soldiers (and I mean thousands) were all clean shaven. Not a stubble to be seen let alone razors; soap, & water in a barren landscape with not a drop of clean H2O for miles. And, the business of latrines or lack of. Couldn't figure out building miles of trenches nicely braced w/cut lumber; sandbags; wiring & again with no trees or other building resources. Oh, middle of a battlefield to challenge it all. German soldier predictably was portrayed as nasty; Allied soldiers as nice & helping. Nice predictable ending.

Have you ever watched a movie where even if you already set the speed to 1.3, you still can't stop yourself to forward it 5-20 seconds time to time? I just did. I even read positive reviews to convince myself that the film is good but nothing worked. Don't get me wrong. I know, and I am very much familiar with MCU. I liked it, in fact, even if the whole plot is cliche. The whole movie is just a 2- hour fan service thus the lack of storytelling. But, of course, this would be not an issue for Marvel since the viewers watch the film only for the sake of seeing their favorite characters come to life (even with slight inaccuracies) and knowing (not figuring out because every Marvel film is shallow) what would happen at the end of the film. Thus, it is also the case that if the viewers already knew what will happen in the film, the film will lose its value. This is pretty simple. Every important part of this film is just a collection of discrete information. Watching this film felt like reading a bullet outline. There's no transition. No emotions to fill those gap--which something I believe a good movie should have. The supposed catharsis should have happened during the whole disintegration moment, like really? How cringey is that? This film is a mosaic. Most of the plot-turning moments in the film are unsubstantiated. I would bet even the Marvel fan themselves observed some moments in the film where they would react: how did that happen. The script made the film into a clown fiesta. This film is more like a parody. A highly budgeted parody is a crap.

This movie is just awesome.Awsome music awesome performances.

Gamers gave it a very high score even before they watched it. It is 8 hours show but after only 10 minutes of its debut I sow 9.8. Whatttt? Its an average tv show that has been made to takes advantage of the game's success and to to seize the opportunity of GOT absence before there is another really good series filling the place. Still waiting for Amazon's lord of the rings based series.

Not one of Scorsese's best... needs to be edited down to two hours once director figures out what he is trying to accomplish with this movie. Great actors and cinematography but movie does not come together.

Netflix really bought an excellent product, it took me directly thirty years ago. Good soundtrack, nice photography. Dungeons and dragons was the first nostalgic memory. The show is full of good 80's references. I never heard the Duffer Brothers name, but this time they really did it. I liked your work pretty much. Winona Ryder and David Harbour were good... but the kids were awesome, Finn, Millie, Gaten and Caleb... Kudos! Goonies, Super 8, ET, all together. An nice adventure, with mystery, love and friendship that you must watch. I enjoyed it a lot. Can't wait for season 2.

I almost enjoyed Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. This movie came so close to being a welcome addition to the Harry Potter franchise. However, Newt Scamander isn't a very likeable protagonist, the CGI beasts look less than fantastic and the story falls apart in the second half. Also, this film is darker than some may expect - it's the same tone as the later movies in the Harry Potter series. Where's the whimsy? Fifty points from Hufflepuff for this half-baked idea.

I'll start by saying that I enjoyed the movie and in a entertainment popcorn kind of way. It has great music, nice cinematography and the actors were good taking into consideration of what was asked them to do. But this is about it, which sometimes is plenty taking into consideration the amount of crap movies that are out there. The problem resides on this film being pretentious and flat with not possible depth of it's message in an artistic sense and let's not even go for morale. The film's plot is unrealistic in the way the The teacher (Fletcher) behaves in this particular set up, being incoherent in the way he reacts at certain points of the movie. Also the way the students react to him, or not react in this case being mere puppets. That said, there is no way in the slightest possible way, that this story could be convincing. I wont get into details not to create any spoilers. One might argue that it is an allegory of reality, but that needs to be presented with some real start point, which is completely non existent and it would serve a purpose to convey a strong message, which does not exists and if it intended to exist, it is confusing as hell: being a prick pays off or doesn't? Does talent only flourishes under extreme and sadistic situations, or not? Is being professional and always have the music as the main core the answer, or your own macho ego should prevail? The secondary characters are completely non existing and should not be there to begin with. I found this movie no different from a 80s Reagan movie, Van Dame and alike, only more eye brow and full of nasty clichés.

I remember seeing this film back in 2014 and i thought that it was great, a few days ago i gave it a re-watch and i'm glad that my mentality has changed and so is my opinion. I think that the movie is okay, i mean visually it was awesome and the music was also beautiful but the writing in this movie is worse than The Room. Nolan is a good director but a bad writer and I really hope that he'll work with a good writer or learn how to write because there's a great potential being wasted here. Anyway I think that the movie is okay and i still have some mixed feelings about it but surely it doesn't deserve to be in the top 250 by any means.

This is not your typical marvel movie or tv show , its definitely not for kids or adolescents . Its a show with realism , for adults who can understand it . I loved every episode . The Dr Strange episode just was the best . The best part of each of these is you can never guess how it ends .

It is original. I will give it that. It is beautifully shot. But it's also just very strange. I like movies that have a fairy tale feel to them (as this one did), but I never felt a deep connection between the heroine and the water creature. It was kind of creepy for a "romance."

Great creepy/horror movie with creative scares and plot. Great watch for the genre.

Incredibly overrated, amazing songs and voices, but what little story there is could be told in less than 90 minutes, and then perhaps it wouldn't seem so long, dull and boring.

What a refreshing different approach...great actors like Eilsabeth Olson, Paul Bettany, Evan Peters. Quirky, dark, funny, interesting and then it turnend it into the typical generic CGI showdown. And I can't forgive Marvel what they did with Evan Peters. Ralph Bohner...not funny at all.

If we set aside the fact that all the bad guys are always white and all the morale, good guys are black, I like the show. The plot is interesting, the writing is good and Kevin Bacon is awesome. I just don't get that in which reality do people live in - but that's not the point now is it... It staggers me that still this day and age the Good Police Chiefs are black and the perps of rape, thievery and other scumbags are always whites or latinos (I mean, sure, I agree on some parts of Affirmative Action, but Jesus Henry Christ, C'mon!), but we do live on Planet Earth, right? There are things which are realistic and not so realistic, right? No? It is simply not plausible or realistic to write television like this. I am not saying that you should not write whites as bad people, no sir. But the mind numbing and unrealistic writing submerges in television in our age so much that it's off-putting and it cries an agenda - a thing which does not lack from any modern day television. Of course this is very American. Unfortunately the guilt and the apologizing has to touch us all tv watchers. We have to suffer from this politically correct madness, because some people have guilty conscience and they want to air it out like dirty laundry. Let's just remember that this is FICTION.

I think this is movie about so-called batman. I expected to see batman word in title. Basically there is too much action and lack of science and story. Everything happened too fast, too many twists, and like a game only. Weaker emotions than in Spiderman. No explanation. Too random. No details how some things and why they happened. Unfinished, meaning there will be more sequels obviously. Overally I am disappointed, even tough I heard for word batman long time ago. Not worth rewatching or watching newer sequels. Except if you are kid, like only action, and do not care about explanation and details.

I enjoyed the first season but the new season has the Robinson characters do annoyingly dumb that it becomes distracting. It seems Dr Smith gets the drop on them repeatedly even though she continually exhibits criminal behavior. There was so much storyline potential here that it's simply a disappointment.

Now, I'll be completely honest - season one didn't impress me. I watched it with a flatmate and it was nice to have a laugh but it was also all over the place and I really didn't care about the subplots. In my opinion, season one focuses way too much on secondary characters and not enough on the main duo. So when I learned that season two is on the horizon, I wasn't sure if I was going to watch it or not. When it did come out, I've decided to give it a shot mostly because I was craving something fun and light. And oh god, season two is an absolute masterpiece. It seems like the creators of the show have really done their homework and fixed all the things that were not so great about season one. This time, ALL the focus is on Crowley and Aziraphale, and their relationship is an incredible one to follow. The overall dynamic of the season is also much improved compared to season one, and I've watched all the episodes in one go. Nothing about the second installment has disappointed me. Highly recommend, just know that it only gets better as you go.

I don't think every movie about such severe topics needs to be an intense and serious drama, but Jojo Rabbit is as much of a great movie about Nazi Germany and Anti-Semitism as Driving Miss Daisy, The Blind Side or any other "white guilt" movie are great movies about racism. It's quite sad and says a lot about society that so many people are blinded by slapstick jokes and a charming cast. As a fan of Waititi's work so far, I was very disappointed.

Pitcher perfect...sorry... picture perfect. Watch it, thank me later.

Coen film with ace performances , thrills , emotion , humor with tongue-in-cheek and some very off-killer dialogue . A riveting mixture of giggles and gore , not without its dull patches . Stars Jerry Lundegard (William H. Macy) , he is in an unknown financial jam , desperate for money and wants his father-in-law's money to solve it . His scheme to get the money involves hiring nasty criminals , Carl Showalter (Steve Buscemi) and Gaer Grimsrud (Peter Stormare) , to kidnap his own wife for a million dollar ransom , leading them to believe it's only a small proportion of that sum , and then splitting the ransom with the delinquents . However, this quickly falls apart when his father-in-law , Wade Gustafson (Harve Presnell) , meddles into the twisted happenings insisting on delivering himself and after three killings and the persistent work of chirpy but efficient police chief, the six-months pregnant Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormad) who's very much more cunning than her staff and is soon on the trail of the truth . A homespun murder story !. Small town !. Big crime !. Dead cold !. A lot can happen in the middle of nowhere !. An ordinary place, an extraordinary thriller !. A riveting mixture of black comedy , drama , violence , gore , giggles , and some very outlandish as well as excessive dialog , not without its dull patches . While this may seem like plot-a-plenty , it's mainly a showcase for the Cohen brothers' unique texturing of style and quirky but deep roles . Includes the Cohen's pithy dialogue , it looks and sounds marvellous . The film may not have the enigmatic elegance or emotional resonance of Barton Fink or Blood Simple but it is still a prime example of the Cohen's effortless brand of stylistic and storytelling brilliance . Starred by some rare characters suffering several Coanesque adventures ; what the protagonists encounter along the way are a number of surprising situations and off-the-wall characters that , when all is said and done , seem like just that individual incidents that never really add up to a whole plot . Stars the Oscarized Frances MacDormand giving a very likable acting as the headstrong officer of the law , while Steve Buscemi , Peter Stormare are two botcher evil-tempered , short-fused gunmen and William H. Macy as the desperate husband. Followed by Fargo TV series (2014) , it is one of the best TV surprises of the last years by co-opting the tone of the Coen Brothers' classic film, but still adding a unique stamp on the material . Thanks to Roger Deakin's gleaming camerawork the film expand a colorful and luminous cinematography. As well as sensitive and agreeable musical score by Carter Burwell , Coen's regular . This fun and entertainining motion picture was well written and directed by Joel and Ethan Coen . They have shared these duties on all of their films, but Joel has always been listed as director and Ethan as producer . The first Coen brothers film where both he and brother Ethan Coen are given directing and producing credits was Ladykillers (2004). Both of whom are part of the prestigious group of individuals to have won Oscars for writing , directing and producing in the same year, for the film No Country for Old Men (2007). Their career is splendid from first film : Blood simple (1984) to Arizona Baby (1987), Miller's crossing (1990) , Oh Brother ! (2000) ,Barton Fink (1991), the great Lebowski (1998), The Man Who Wasn't There (2001) , Intolerable Cruelty (2003) , Burn After Reading (2008) , A Serious Man (2009) , True grit (2010) ,among others . Rating : 7/10. Well worth watching , better than average. The flick will appeal to Frances McDormand fans and Joel/Ethan Coen followers.

I really enjoy this show. It's funny and has a good mix of mystery and twists in it as well. Sure some of it is a little cliché but when I want to watch a mystery story I expect certain themes and actions to play out as they do in a mystery story!! The mix of the comedy is great. The 3 leads have great chemistry. Gomez feels like the third musketeer to Steve Martin & Martin Short. I enjoyed watching those three build a relationship throughout the show. The other tenants performances and the apartment building meetings are fantastic comedy scenes that gave me legit laugh out loud moments. If you want to watch a fun show then give this a shot.

I'm sorry to say, but this show isn't good. I held off on judgement until I finished the first season, but now I can personally say that this show is only popular because of the legacy of the game and because of Pedro Pascal's popularity. The story is completely rudderless, most of the episodes don't drive the story or progress the main characters at all. The heavily praised third episode with gay Ron Swanson isn't applicable to the rest of the story at all and it's the longest episode! Well-made or not, it contributes nothing to the overarching story of the show and has zero repercussions for our protagonists. The character development, chemistry, and dialogue is extremely clunky; the story is all over the place, with no apparent direction; and overall, most of the episodes are boring. It feels like a live-action remake of all of the cut-scenes in the game, but without the engaging gameplay that makes the cutscenes in the game make sense. If the game hadn't preceded this show and we weren't so depraved for good cinema and TV, this show never would have received the attention it has. It's entertaining enough to watch, but giving it anymore than an average review is being too generous.

I read the mixed reviews and didn't have high expectations for content, thinking this would solely be a cast driven experience. There were so many delicious layers of historic and cautionary references to our current social and political environment. The detective story was a clever way to tell the story of the sinister work of power and control that continues to lurk behind the scenes influencing and impacting our very existence. I loved the subtle way the story and messages unfolded. While the dialogue didn't always live up to the story, the actors and quirkiness of the film were engaging enough. The array of actors were the hook.

I watched this movie and many times during it I wanted to have a move fast button to play it. What I mean is that this movie was so boring, and very stupid. 8.8 score? this is unreal... A v e r y b a d m o v i e Trust me, don't waste your money on such ugly production. Watch it online and don't go to the theaters. Everything in this movie is unrealistic, physics, etc nothing was real. I don' know what people liked this movie... Worst movie ever... Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text. idiot website

First season brilliant. Second was alright but the third is awful. You can't add a new character and make her the main part. I hate her and can't watch it because of her. Going by other reviews I'm not the only one. Whoever wrote her part needs punishing

Barbie will be a pioneer and a classic in the film world. She shatters all expectations and supersedes all standards. She is incredibly insightful, touching, truthful, whimsical. Barbie is made by women for women. To any man who "doesn't get it", you wont, but I invite you to watch it anyways as a show of support to women and our lived experiences and our dreams and hopes. To the men who feel attacked by this film, please feel attacked. This is an attack on men and rightfully so. Barbie doesn't stretch the truth or make a mockery, she puts life on the screen exactly how it is. Barbie is a mirror. And once again to the men who feel like "this isn't for me". If you are a heterosexual male attracted to women, the logical conclusion is to celebrate and enjoy femininity, to express curiosity, care and interest for women. A film that centres around women should immediately take your interest! To all the women reading this review, if you haven't seen the film yet, please indulge yourselves and do so. I hope you find joy, peace and love in all moments of your life x.

Mads and Hugh are perfect for the roles they capture in this series. They balance that fine line of love and disgust and adoration for one another - it's so beautifully done I just wish this would of continued on after season 3 Definitely not for the weak hearted in regards to gore

Come on people. I personally find AOS even more fun than the Avengers series. This show has continually met and exceeded all expectations. What more can you ask for honestly? People rating this a six or lower should not be watching this show as they just dont get it; they should go watch some boring realistic everyday life kind of show and leave this brilliant gem to scifi fans to adore and cherish.

I haven't finished it just yet but so impressed from the cinematography, the actors and actresses. Each episode brings a new arch to the show! If you have time binge the whole thing!

Very unrealistic storyline and represention of time and places

I still remember my first Marvel movie, the iron man I released in 2008 when I'm still in high school.(Spiderman doesn't count) I've never heard iron man before neither marvel universe, I went because I happened to have to one coupon and it was the only action movie at that time. My big-boy personality was brought up by all the cool armor stuff. And since then I watched every marvel superhero movies in the cinema. 8 years after it. I'm still sitting in the cinema watching Captain America III. The whole scene is even better than the avengers, gathering new team members and enhance the old. Even Spiderman get re-made. The scene at the airport is awesome and clearly they have way more budgets than dead pool. But I'm not getting excited any more; all they do are just hunting villains saving the world and people are still stupid enough to live in the super crowded cities waiting something bad happens. Maybe the only one who changes is Tony; he used to be a typical playboy and gradually grown up into someone thinks of the society. 8 years later, Tony's boyhood is over and so do I.

There's just so much money involved in the creation of the current breed of animated/cg movies that they rarely strike out. Indeed, I found even mediocrely-reviewed fare such as "monsters vs aliens" to actually be quite good and appreciable on an adult level with lots of intelligent jokes and the occasional innuendo. But not "Kung Fu Panda." Kung Fu Panda is awful. Here's the plot: fat, lazy, wisecracking panda boy is surprisingly chosen to be "the one" to defend against big bad guy, much to the chagrin of five sidekick kung-fu master animals who have spent their lifetimes in training and work. initially, they reject him since he's a fat lazy panda. will he find the solution, a combination of 'believing in himself' and taking advantage of his 'alternate but just as good talents' (he's fat, so he can be motivated by food) to defeat the bad guy and save the day? alas, yes. the plot is just that stupid, sending all the wrong messages. in kung fu panda's America, you don't have to do the math or practice for more than a few token montage scenes. you just 'believe in yourself.' this line of nonsense used to what they used to console kids on the slow bus with, but is now what passes for 'inclusive education' or some-such. and mind you, I'm an extreme political liberal (though a well educated one) writing this. but, even such inanity could be salvageable if the jokes and acting along the way were any good. they're not. the A-list quality supporting voice talent in addition to B-list quality lead Jack Black are utterly miscast. Angelina Jolie is wasted and unnecessary, though I'm sure she was glad for the check for her afternoon of work. did anybody here go see the movie because Angelina Jolie or Dustin Hoffman were cast? then why did they bother? one suspects a massive kickback scheme is in place - how else to explain why major stars land well paying voice animated rolls that probably do nothing to drawing audiences? the only good to be gotten out of this absolutely miserable movie are the fight scenes. i'm not usually one for fight scenes (and this movie didn't change this), but at times they were clever enough. there was no groundbreaking animation in this movie; I just mean to say that if you happen to like kung fu fight scenes, then you'll probably enjoy the ones here. i personally found those in 'crouching tiger hidden dragon' far more satisfying, but I can't say that those here were in any way bad for what they were. the 'dumpling scene' was particularly well done. the only thing that this movie had that in any way broke the usual stereotypes was the depiction of the prison that held the 'long caged' bad guy in the beginning. his jailers, for once, were not total dupes. i, however, felt like a total dupe after watching this very poor movie - doubly so since it was recommended to me as being particularly well written. conclusion: worst animated/cgi film i've seen in at least the last decade.

Henry Cavill really loves this character and it absolutely shows. He gives it his all as Geralt and tries his best with the dialogue to make it his own The fighting scenes are outstanding, brutal and well choreographed. The cinematography is pretty great as well, nothing really stands out but the world they've created is beautiful at best.

This is totally action packed movie. The watching of movie is playing a first person action shooter game. So watch if you like action.

I think the cast should pay their billable salary to remove their names from the credits. My 9 year old could have wrote better dialog.

I think this is an interesting show.As with all new shows they can tweak it as they go along.I thought in the beginning it wouldn't hold my attention,since I have only watched one Avenger Movie and one Ironman Movie,but I am a fan of other Marvel comic movies.I think the spin off to television is a good idea.I like the cast. I think the cast appeals to younger and mature viewers. I really like Clark Gregg's character Coulson,he's vulnerable but strong,very sexy.I think he has all the viewers wondering what they did to him while he was allegedly dead.I hope the fans and the network give this show a chance.I believe it's worth it.

7/10. Suitably scary, weird, creepy, suspenseful. Kids in danger, MONSTERS EVERYWHERE!! I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I am hard to please. Never take off your blindfold. Remember that one, folks.

An odus to the martyred Indian soldiers, Uri is inspired by many high action movies, the craft and emotional value delivered on this movie are superlative and deserve applause. My perception is its a must watch for every Indian.

Normally I am not disappointed with shows having IMDB ratings that are 6+ and with at least 1000+ contributions but occasionally it happens. That is the case with Bird Box. The first 20 minutes had a strong start and I stuck through to the end but it was very much a waste of time. The premise is different but similar to movies like A Quiet Place. As a comparison I give a generous rating of a 6 to A Quiet Place, Bird Box is at best a 3. The story development and premise of A Quiet Place is passable but it is dismal in Bird Box.

Best realistic movie to watch. Finest acting my Big B and all new comers. Great cinematography. Best screenplay, direction and story. This movie strongly highlights the barriers being faced by slum kids while making move towards sports career. Hats off to Nagraj sir and Amit ji for presenting amazing content on screen.

This film is just amazing, I love the story is telling and how good the visuals are, I mean seriously, they don't make anything like this anymore, that's why I feel that one day in the future this will be considered a classic, I know I'll call it a classic. Edit: I still love this film in 2022, I'm always afraid that one day I'll watch this and feel like this is silly and over the top, but every time I see this it gets better somehow, Doc Ock is an amazing villain for the series and Sam Ramis work really shined in this film, the hospital scene terrified me as a child.

The Thing I liked the most in this movie is Four Different Stories Overlapping at a Same Place in the Climax... Love this Movie

Some female writers would have really helped this dumpster fire of a script. We're really gonna have the female characters constantly ignored by their husbands with little to no consequences? Jake Sully is the most insufferable husband and father. Also, after 12 years they couldn't come up with a new villain? Really? I wish I could've enjoyed the VFX without some character ruining the moment with exposition every 30 seconds. But the visual effects really are stunning, and if you can see beyond the distracting exposition-driven dialogue that treats the audience like they're stupid, then you'll probably like the movie. I couldn't, but if you watch it for the VFX you'll probably like it.

The 10/10's just go to show how shallow general audiences have become!! Far from a masterpiece... lots of camera shaking, too many characters, sensational garbage. Jam packing every single marvel hero into 1 film and an ending that is far from 'deep' and just forces you to watch the next installment to make sense of it. 3 stars and that's generous!

I started watching this show and really enjoy the story line. I feel however they made a bad/poor choice of a leading man. There isn't much chemistry/sex appeal with this guy which takes away from the electricity that COULD be present if they picked someone with better looks, more swagger.

This drama coldly and strikingly reminds us of how the disease was, in the early 90's, still very unknown to the public. The nature of the premise is inevitably appealing but unfortunately the script is very academic : statement of the facts, trial, verdict, done deal. Scenes follow each other very linearly, without much tension, and despite high stakes you never really get carried away by story whose mise-en-scène is sometimes too melodramatic. Hanks first major performance, though awarded an Academy Award, feels quite insipid, as is the whole cast in fact and the movie in general, necessary but far from being a top drama.

I'm not here to compare it to GOT or any other show, why would I? I take everything at face value and see it for what it is. This had such a wonderful novel, backstory and enticing characters, but everything from the casting, acting, pacing of the story, dialogue , cinematography etc. is all wrong. Good actors could have saved it in some areas, but they never showed up. The poor storyline and uneven pacing has it doomed to be another netflix crappy original. It's even worse when you consider the high budget. I root for anything that isn't a 50th marvel remake to make noise, but this won't be it and I hope they put money for future seasons into something meatier with actual actors, not fringe british drama school thespians. The worst part is to come here and see it has a 9 rating... shows you nerds and fanboys will vote something a 10 no matter how bad it is, and why we have 25 superhero movies that make billions of dollars while original ideas never come to the surface.

Waste of time, bad jokes, waste of money and characters, unbelievable.

I knew from the first episode I would enjoy this, Steve Martin and Martin Short together is a fantastic pair up. I'm always weary of whodunit shows or films, pretty much al the same containing a twist in that it wasn't who you were made to believe it was. This Programme though has been made so well I feel it contains enough humour, and likeable characters to detract from the norm and make it a show you cant wait to see the next episode of. Martin Short's ditzy behaviour doesn't get annoying, it's genius! The chemistry between all three stars really does work, the screen time for each is well balanced, meaning you don't get too much of a good thing all in one go and the spend the next 20 minutes twiddling your thumbs, great job! I can appreciate this show may not be for everyone, but its certainly one of the best light hearted easy going shows to be found in 2022. Cant wait for S03.

The dimenson where people live is not real? By taking a red pill, a person can travel to the real world (which is controlled by AI computers). A new world can be created at anytime by downloading a file from server? What the hell it that? Since the storyline is completely fake and non-sense, why make it so complicated? I tried to understand the plot many times and I still have idea what is it about.

I think the film is so wide, it didnt feel important and deep. It was everywhere at the same time. For me this can be a double edged sword and in this case i felt that the sharp end hit the film and gave a visually stunning film and an ensemble cast yet emotionally shallow, ineffective movie. I wish we had more time to focus on singular subjects to understand the depth of the war, i couldnt find myself feeling the character or i didnt feel aroused by the cormadery that is presented in the film, I am Nolan and this film for me is too much of Nolan's bad qualities and too little of his good. Yet the subject matter calls for a step back from Nolan main approach and asks him to reinvent himself which he refuses to do.

I had great expectations going into the theaters. It was a Karan Johar-SRK-Kajol powerpack. But unfortunately, I would have to say that Johar has failed to create a masterpiece. In fact he created a disaster. I think Karan wanted to make a "Forrest Gump" movie with a protagonist suffering from a mental disability (Asperger's in this case)doing quite the impossible and affecting a variety of people's lives. But what resulted was a mess especially in the second half where everything seemed discordant. The only reason I gave this a 2/10 is that I really appreciated SRK's acting. He delivered a powerhouse performance which finally made him very credible to me. Last time he acted this well was Dil Se. Kajol was OK, nothing special. But besides that everyone else acted terribly....overacting is not even the right word. The movie exaggerated the reactions against American Muslims in the post 9/11 era and a lot of portrayal was black & white. I did not expect Karan Johar to stoop to this level of simplicity, especially since his last movie Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna addresses its theme so sensitively and masterfully. But this time, he fails miserably.

I find myself unable the tell you what the plot actually is. I have no idea how the universe of this film works. There are many moments where I have no idea what is happening. None of which matters. The film is a visually feast, the gags mostly land and the weirdness ends up being completely charming. This is a live action cartoon mixed the a Kung Fu destiny story. It is an action comedy where each are the focus. What a great style for a fun film. Sadly, the film is slightly marred by a mean streak that is misplaced and keeps bunting into the fun. There are two different running homophobic gags. Everyo once in awhile the films goes too dark and/or graphic. Of note the lovable rascal that is the heart of this film complains about how he hadn't raped anyone yet, which just doesn't work as a joke. This streak happens just enough to be annoying without fully ruining the tone. This film is just so much fun.

That Sriram Raghavan is one of Hindi film industry's (I prefer not to use the term Bollywood) most underrated director is well known. But somehow even his movies are under publicized. A brilliant masterpiece thriller like 'Ek Hasina Thi' went almost unnoticed, and as if history was repeating itself now 'Johnny Gaddar' (JG) too released, and before the blink of an eye got lost in to oblivion. Before I critique this movie any further, and before the so-called "movie reviewers" pounce on me for overtly praising JG let me put in a small disclaimer. If I were to watch this movie meticulously with an eye like Sir Sherlock Holmes then this movie has several logical flaws, not to mention that it lacks a sense of originality and borrows heavily from its predecessors (other murder-mystery movies). But then isn't that how a murder-mystery/thriller is supposed to be? So typical in its approach. A plot, a plan, a fallout, and the suspense-filled climax. And yet it is this aura of uncertainty in its stereotype characters that drive us to the edge of our seats. Just like the James Hadley Chase novels, which our protagonist (Neil) keeps reading. In short, if you are the kind who grew up on thriller movies and understands the dynamics of the plot, this one is for you. It will keep you guessing until the fag end of the movie. Let me contradict myself a bit here and say that the treatment of JG is definitely different. It starts where most suspense movies would end. You know who's done the deed (there's no suspense about that); you know why he did it; you also know how he did it. What you don't know is how the hell is the movie going to proceed. And what you would want to know is, what's going to happen next? Where does our man go from here? Unlike the revealing clothes that heroines wear in Hindi movies, I prefer not to reveal even a frugal part of the plot/story, lest it deprive audiences of the sheer pleasure of watching a suspense thriller. Let me just say that JG is one hell-of-a slick thriller. It has a flavor not found in today's cinema. JG is a tribute to many thriller and pulp movies you might have seen, reminiscent of the golden-era of Vijay Anand's thrillers like 'Jewel Thief', and 'Johnny Mera Naam'. See it if you have a penchant for retro thrillers; don't if you want to analyze and deconstruct the movie.

I must be one of the only people in the U.S. that hates this movie. Not just dislikes, but HATES. That's right; I despise this flick. Let me explain why... When I was in high school, Tim Burton's Batman came out in theaters. I remember it being one of the most enjoyable movie-going experiences of my life. Goofy bat-props aside, it was epic, colorful, and operatic. It was what any true comic book movie should aspire to. I still consider Burton's movie the best superhero movie ever made. Yep, you heard me right. I will be the first to admit that went into Christopher Nolan's version with a biased opinion. How could Nolan, a director known for Hitchcock-like suspense movies, ever beat Burton's dark vision? After viewing Batman Begins, it turns out I was right to question everything I had heard about it. This movie sucks. Nolan is best left to directing off-kilter thrillers. Given his unique directing style, I have to admit that I was excited to find out that he was going to be helming this one. Unfortunately, he shows none of the originality that seeps through in his other flicks like Memento and The Prestige. How can such a good director turn out uninspired, boring schlock like this? Batman Begins is so ham-fisted and pretentious that I felt like I had been forced into watching a Baptist tent revival for two hours. The characters love sermonizing about "good vs. evil" and "morality vs. immorality". Especially Katie Holmes and Michael Caine. Now, I am a big fan of Caine's work (I won't even comment on Holmes; how she got cast in this movie is beyond me), but turning Alfred into a nagging I-Told-You-So moralist is completely aggravating. David S. Goyer should be smacked for writing such pandering drivel. I am a huge fan of Christian Bale. I have a ton of his movies in my collection. I had big hopes for his turn as the Caped Crusader. He is the only actor in this movie that even pretends to care about what is going on, despite his very wooden performance. Gary Oldman is one of my favorite thespians of all time, but he was a braindead zombie throughout the whole flick. Ditto for Holmes, Liam Neeson, Cillian Murphy, Morgan Freeman, and Ken Watanabe. How could so many great actors sleepwalk through one production? It's all mindboggling. The whole thing feels like a project that had a ton of energy at the beginning, but everyone involved slowly lost interest and just decided to finish it so they could collect their paychecks. Very Sad. This had such huge potential, and it turned out to be just another Hollywood cash cow. There were some highlights for me, though. The final train showdown was really cool, as was the appearance a psychopathic Scarecrow on the streets of Gotham looking like one of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Ultimately, Batman Begins is marred by poor scriptwork, poor direction, and even poorer acting. I am consistently amazed by reviews that herald it as "the movie of the year" or "the best superhero movie ever made". Uggh. I'll stick to Zebraman, thank you very much. At least that has some creativity to it.

Movie should have been much more long bad to edit it for a pc certificate

This movie has all the same issues the first one does and more. Poor plot development, very pieced together feeling, not enough time spent on the story and too much time trying to land poorly placed jokes and lines and the villian (who I love in the comics) was another side act like in the first venom. Overall Sony continues to disappoint with this franchise and I truly went in with open expectations they could have easily won me over with a half decent storyline.

True entreprenaul story ...perfectly describes problems of starting a startup...perfectly lined up story...complete package

Season One is Bad. Hard to follow. The timelines make it hard to follow. The episodes sequence is like a scrambled rubik's cube. 5stars for Henry Cavil and few cool scenes. I haven't watched season two so, can't judge it yet.

IMDB episode reviews were clearly rigged going in to look like best show ever -- it isn't. Not even close. Very disappointing to see reviews hijacked like that. I hope it's not a trend. Three episodes in, the original premise of an innocent man accused of committing a murder by being in two places at once is reduced to just one of a number of subplots where an unseen dark supernatural force is pulling strings. Could still end up being good overall, but this is not Academy Awards stuff.

The winter soldier is one of the best sequels ever in cinema. Not only does it build upon its predecessor, but it expands on it so well it can hold its merit by itself. This movie discusses politics but in a subtle way. It shows how we approach politics in general. Like Captain America, it is our core individual beliefs that motivate us. This movie focuses on Captain America to the max. This is a character-focused film without giving anything much to the plot, but it manages to fit in the massive story it has. I have no issues with the film, and maybe the antagonists could've been more explained and fleshed out in the film. But it gives enough of what the movie needs. But this film is a near-perfect film.

What makes this thriller different is the extensive use of social media to develop the drama..John Cho does a credible job.

I have to admit, I was very sceptical. I loved the original 1960's series as a child. I looked over various reviews of the new series and really expected that this would be a dud. However, I have now finished watching episode 3 and I have to say, I'm hooked. Some reviewers have accused the series of being very PC (politically correct) in it's diversity. The original series was certainly not WASP. Guy Williams (John Robinson) (born, Armando Joseph Catalano) was an Italian-American actor, Marta Kristen (Judy Robinson) was Norwegian and Johnathan Harris ( Dr. Zachary Smith) was clearly LGBTQ. This series is bears no more resemlance to the 1960's series than it did to to the original "Swiss Family Robinson" story. It is far more a psychological thriller. It is about each character, with a unique psychological makeup (one who is certainly a psychopath), copes with the challenges, traumatic experiences and relationships. When viewed independently from it's predecessors, it makes for compelling and intriguing entertainment. I expect that there will be much to be revealed in future episodes. I have say, I love the robot!

Like quite a few others I'm giving this one star to balance out countless 10 star reviews. My wife and I watched this because of the high average review on this site. I won't bother describing why the movie was so bad. Others have done a great job. It was like watching a three hour train-wreck, or a regular train wreck shown in super slow motion over several hours. Unfortunately I can't just leave it at that, because I have to write at least 10 lines. So I will expand enough to say that the "science" was non-existent, special effects were poor, the pacing slow. Perhaps the most ridiculous thing was that the astronauts had to leave earth with a 20th century three-stage rocket, but later they landed on other planets and took off again with Star Wars type landing craft. That's just one example of insane stupidity, and it just got worse and worse from there.

The Godfather Part II took everything that the first did right, and made it better. Yes Part II is the greater of the two in my opinion because while the first movie focused more on story telling this film doubles up and adds an excitement factor that was missing from the first. Pacino Carries a lot of the film alongside Duvall's Spectacular performance. This is the best Crime drama ever created and it will stay there for a very very long time.

The best horror film of 2023 so far immerses viewers into a terrifying world, combining a powerful cast with skillful cinematography and an immersive soundtrack. With a chilling narrative and well-executed twists, this gripping film proves to be an unmissable addition to the A24 genre. Delivering a spine-chilling experience, the top horror film of 2023 combines stellar performances with atmospheric visuals and an evocative musical score. With a gripping plot and expertly crafted scares, this movie sets a new standard for the genre, leaving audiences haunted long after the credits roll A truly must see for people who love real horror.

Update 2 (post last episode): Boring, a show about misery, nothing happens and there is no conclusion. The acting, Nicole Kidman, and cinematography are the only positives. It is a waste of 6-hours. Update 1: Episode 5 is the worst. More than 30-minutes of dialogue was not even in the English language and served no purpose in advancing the story. Worst episode to date. Original Post: I could not understand the negative reviews, but I watched episode 2, not episode 1. I am watching episode 1 now and it is long, a lot of emotions that you would not understand without watching episode 2. The reviews for episode 1 make sense without seeing the trailer or episode 2. You need to watch episode 2 to understand what is happening in episode 1. I would have stopped watching this show, if I started with episode 1. Episode 1 is pretty weird. The son drawing a picture of Jesus, dad being in an English speaking church in HongKong, odd sex scenes, mom taking a bath in a plastic tub in a rundown apartment she is renting secretly, and mom saying they are not religious contradicting the church scene. She does not know dad attends church or did dad start attending church, because of the tragedy? There is a lot of artsy fluff like in White Lotus. I like that Kidman is older than the male actor and he's Asian. It challenges norms and shows that women's careers do not end, because they are in their fifties. That said there is no chemistry between them, but there is no chemistry between any of the heterosexual couplings in the show. I do not understand all the Kidman hate. She looks gorgeous for her age. She does not move like she did in her 20s, because she is post menopause. Women have less calcium in their bones after 50, so their bones are more fragile, less flexible. She dances like any "older woman," especially taller woman. Her bone structure has nothing to do with botox or plastic surgery, but her age and height; her first full-term pregnancy when she was going into menopause (a miracle pregnancy as her doctor said it was impossible for her to get pregnant) also damaged her bone structure. It is easier for younger women to recover from child birth than older women. She also probably does not eat enough, because in Hollywood she would never be casted, if she had any fat. The only reason there are so many viewers of this poorly paced show is because of Kidman. Her lips look like they did when she was 20. I am certain she gets botox injections around her eyes as women with her phenotype begin getting wrinkles around the eyes in their thirties, due to having less melanin in the skin. Woman require botox to prevent "crows eyes" (the term used by plastic surgeons) and it is cheaper than eye creams and longer lasting. I suspect her make-up artist was Asian, did her make-up as if she were Asian, and make-up that works for Chinese or Asian women does not work for white, especially white women with light hair and blue eyes. Her make-up artist indeed made her look like she just recovered from the flu, because she looked so pale. Asian women look good when they paint their skin white (see e.g., memoirs of a geisha). White women look sickly when their skin is that white. Few Asian women use blush, but red heads (Nicole's natural hair colour) need colour via bronzer or blush.

This year is not very good for the sci-fi cinematography. Besides multiple unintentional parodies of the genre (like X-Men: Days of Future Past), there was actually only one big-budget movie worth watching: On the Edge of Tomorrow. It seems like Tom Cruise is one of the few Hollywood stars able to wisely pick roles. His recent achievements leave little to desire: Valkyrie, or Knight and Day are good at worst, with the high pitch of Oblivion. Are we able to say the same about Matthew McConaughey? Unfortunately, not. Although his recent movies are above average (True Detective or Dallas Buyers Club), the latest picture he plays in, Interstellar (directed by Christopher Nolan and written by him and his brother), is a huge letdown and misunderstanding. I don't think anyone being fond of "hard" science-fiction stories will like it. Here is why. Firstly, the story. It is in general similar to Mission to Mars or The Red Planet, where the handful of daredevils are put in the spaceship to venture on a mission, which result will impact the whole human race. Unfortunately, which is the usual problem in this case, the whole plot is neither engaging, nor entertaining. We have a bunch of uninteresting people making uninteresting things in space. Maybe because of the long time span of the picture, the viewer quickly gets bored and does not care about the main characters. Besides, the space adventure is mixed with the very personal story of the father trying to save his children (which is also a time-consuming thread here). Anyway, the main conclusion of Interstellar is the banal statement that "love is the most important thing in the world". Do we really need to sit for almost three hours in the cinema to get this? By coincidence, the second problem is the length of the movie. Currently, when the the picture is recorded not on the tape, but in the digital medium, every director tries to surpass his rivals by creating as long movie as possible. Maybe it is supposed to be the emblem of his might, skills or wisdom? I have no idea, but the fact is that the contemporary blockbusters are difficult to watch especially because they last for three or more hours, having the plot for only half of this time. This is exactly the case with Interstellar. The presented story is far from complex, and could easily fit in two hours. In fact, the first forty minutes of the movie have nothing to do with the rest of the story and could be recapitulated by the narrator in two sentences... This film tries to treat the topic of interstellar travel seriously. Unfortunately, some ideas are presented according to our current knowledge of physics and astronomy, while others are just stupid. This mixture makes the suspension of disbelief, necessary to enjoy such movie, impossible to attain. On one side we have wormholes, black holes, higher dimensions of space and the silence of the void. On the other hand, there is totally unconvincing reality of the XXI century, where farmers are more valuable than engineers (guys, really?) and tomography is (mysteriously) gone. In one scene the physicist explains convincingly the work regime of the wormhole (by the way, this scene is IDENTICAL to the one from the far better Event Horizon). In another, we see the mission robot TARS, being the member of the crew. I know that humanoid machines from fifties seem ridiculous today (like the one from The Day The Earth Stood Still), but they are really the top quality idea compared to the robots depicted in Interstellar. It is difficult to believe someone created such a model and the whole crew agreed to put it the picture! It's almost like the the wooden planet from the initial script of Alien 3... The number of errors and non-logical events is just amazing. Anyone complaining about the lack of consistency in Prometheus (which was also much better than this one) will have the real hunting ground here. In fact, the more time passes after seeing the movie, the more nonsenses are detected. Don't think about this too much, anyway, its not worthy... The Nolan brothers used their imagination a little bit too much in the final part of the story, where the word "magic" (interchangeable with "nonsense") comes to mind. As the result, the viewer is left at the end indifferent to what is presented on the screen and does not care about the fate of the characters... Please recall the infamous Black Hole, and You will have the impression of what is going on here... The music is of course the extremely important part of every picture. If the composer knows his craft, the soundtrack complements the images, creating the flawless combo (as was in Terminator, Starship Troopers, Aliens, etc.). Here we have the attempt to create the epic atmosphere, but the events shown on screen are rather uninteresting, therefore the resulting impression is just the overwhelming noise, making the viewer angry instead of touching or moving him. Unfortunately, it seems like making a good movie about the interstellar travel is extremely difficult. People like to go to the movies and see a good story. There are multiple requirements for the entertaining movie: the mystery, the convincing scenery, the real characters we could care about, finally, the emotional strain, often related to the dangers our protagonists are exposed to. Interstellar does not offer anything of these. It is a long and boring sermon about the future of Mankind in the universe, pretending to be the science-fiction movie. With this picture Christopher Nolan proved his only memorable work was Prestige and the Batman trilogy was not the accident, but the clear sign that his main achievements in Hollywood will be too long, boring and utterly disappointing pictures, initially rising hopes for a good time spent in the cinema, but leaving in a complete, sad disillusion after all.

The action sequences are promising and the movie manages to keep its viewers engaged throughout but what the plot lacks is some depth.

After watching this movie I can see why people think Netflix made the memes themselves. What did I just watch? Full of inconsistencies, I kept waiting for something to happen, waited and waited and waited some more. Ashamed to admit I was sucked in by the hype. Waste of time!

I thought this movie was supposed to be a mystery comedy. The only mystery was why it was made and the only comedy was Daniel Craig's unnecessary half hearted attempt at a southern accent. Having a plot in which not a single character has any resemblance to an actual human being is not funny - it's just stupid and boring. The horrible dim yellow green lighting and art direction throughout hurt my eyes. And one last thing not mentioned by any reviewers who either favoured or like me hated this waste of electrons - the accompanying score was the most unimaginative generic movie score I've ever heard.

I really like the character Loki but this was boring. This storyline has him either shackled to a desk looking for clues or in "in the field" looking for clues to who's killing the time keepers. The culprit is equal parts BORING. Things really don't pick up until the multi Loki episode. Alligator Loki is primo. Alas it was too short lived and we see the great Oz reveal...boring.

Let's just say during the approximately thirty seconds we thought this had won Best Picture, I was unhappy at the decision. The setting and music are both good, but the plot and acting were very bland.

Ok, the actors and the visual effects deserve all the stars from this review. And that's it, unfortunately. The storyline is unimpressive and childish. The horror elements have nothing to do with Marvel and superhero world. It's disappointing! I watched the other movies with my kids, but this one definitely not! It's more like zombie apocalypse+superhero lame scenes and that's it.

Jennifer Lawrence has been everywhere. She's Hollywood's darling. Not that she doesn't deserve it. She is, after all, an A-caliber actress. She should, however, have passed on this movie. I didn't once believe that she was the character she was trying to play. There is a story, I'll give it that. Foundation-wise, it's actually pretty good. But the movie itself is so exhausting that you forget what the story is. The violence feels way out of place, the dialogue is weak, the sex is awkward, and the Russian accents are TERRIBLE! The all-star cast (Lawrence, Joel Edgerton, Jeremy Irons, Ciaran Hinds) is, unfortunately, not enough to save this sad and pitiful excuse of a thriller/spy movie.

This movie is charming and many people I know who also watched this absolutely loved it and recommended it to me. The movie was hilarious and we all had a laugh. Everybody enjoyed this and actually had fun. At the end of the movie I was left with wanting more. This movie is at least in the top 5 as it was something I didn't expect to enjoy. I thought at first that it would just another mediocre movie but I was so wrong. Somehow everything about this movie put together worked so well. Ryan Gosling as Ken and Margot Robbie as Barbie both casts did a fantastic job. I would absolutely rewatch this as it was better than I expected. I highly recommend this. This Barbie movie got everybody wearing pink and it just did everything right. Honestly hats off to all casts & crew. I LOVED THIS!!!

Glass Onion isn't a sequel to Knives Out so you could just watch this one without having to watch the first Knives Out. That said the first one was just a little bit better though. But I enjoyed this murder mystery as well. In this whodunit they cleverly accentuate some scenes to put you on the wrong path. You watch out for clues but in the end it's still a surprising outcome. The best thing about Glass Onion was the acting. With a cast like that it's obvious the acting will be good and it was. Good cinematography as well, they clearly had a big budget for this movie. For the fans of murder mysteries.

The writer, director have done a very good job in bringing out the concept of this film exactly as that from the book. There are few changes throughout the movie here and there from that of the book, but taking into consideration that it's a 2 hour movie in which every single detail cannot be shown from that of the book it's a really enjoyable movie.

I highly recommend this show if you like any type of witchery or vampire fiction! This show makes you want to watch more and is truly captivating! 10+ stars if I could!

The Rich. And the Poor. In this one the poor family is neither fighting for their rights nor are they fighting for their future. They try to go along as the parasites of a rich family. I guess, this script shows perfectly, how a saturated generation X sees the stereotype of poor people in today's times. Nothing to like in this movie. The story is inhuman in every sense.

Walking. Talking. Walking more. Shot like one continuous line so the parts in between the boring and less boring parts are just walking in silence. Characters weren't memorable or had any depth. Story was ant-climactic and and not worth sitting through. Waste. Of. Time.

Ryan Reynolds plays "1". He's a billionaire and philanthropist and after witnessing civilians in a refugee camp being massacred in Turgistan, by an evil dictator, he decides to right the world of its wrongs by faking his own death and going after bad people, including the Turgistan dictator. He starts recruiting an elite group to join him, including a hitman, a spy, a CIA agent, a soldier and a free running young thief, who also have to"ghost" themselves. Each of the group are given a number as their name so as not to reveal their true identities to each other. There is a little bit of back story about each of the group, but there is no explanation as to how the group are trained in weaponary, combat and tech skills, particularly 1, who as a billionaire inventor, would not have had those skills. The film focuses on the rescue of the Dictator's brother who is the good brother and wants to make Turgistan a better place for its people, by encouraging a revolution. He's currently under house arrest in a palatial pent house in Hong Kong, surrounded by his brother's henchmen. There are a few holes in the plot, but a few tongue in cheek moments, which were amusing. I enjoyed the film.

Back to back sexual content, Uncomfortable to watch in cinema theater.

Deathnote's reputation as an excellent anime is well-earned in my eyes and it was a pleasure to watch. However, it is not without flaws and while I would strongly encourage any anime fans to watch it, I would also never recommend this to someone who didn't already have an interest in anime. The series greatest strength lies in taking the relatively simple premise of the deathnote and building complex and highly engaging characters around it. The challenges and interactions between these characters is the singular driving point of the series, and what keeps the viewer engaged. Kira and his continuous battles with his pursuers, most notably L, are fascinating to watch and well executed in concept and form. The visual animation is excellent and the production values, scripting, and voice work (in both Japanese and English) are very well done. I also noticed that the music for the last 7 episodes was especially perfect. The major plot twist at the end of the second act of the series is absolutely stunning and there have been few times I've felt so engaged in what I was watching. Despite these winning combinations, I did find some faults with the series. First and foremost is that the final act failed to live up to the second. I found many of the key actions of the characters lacking in previous brilliance. Yet an ultimately satisfying conclusion is still there. Secondly, the series can seem a little too long at times. While I don't think it could be fit into the usual 25 episode anime format without losing some of its quality, I did feel that there were at least 5-6 episodes that could have been cut out for being ultimately inconsequential. My third and final criticism is more about my personal preference. I found that it held on far too strongly to the conventions typically associated with Japanese-animated film. Deathnote lost some of its potential by making use of several overt stereotypes, most notably the highly annoying character of Misa Misa who seems to exist only to provide fan service, and the far-too-perfect Chief Yagami who's every comment is both unneeded and boring. In addition, the over elaborate settings, resources, and quirks the characters are provided with are somewhat over-the-top. The core focus of deathnote remains the brilliant game of cat-and-mouse between Kira and his pursuers, but the fact that it is framed within the overly-conventional aspects of anime means it lost both its accessibility and some of its potential to be truly unique. I'm aware that the series is extremely faithful to its source material and thus don't see this as any fault of the series creators. Yet this is why I consider more accessible/nonconformist works such as Watanabe's Champloo and Bebop to be slightly superior to Deathnote, and certainly a better introduction to anime for new-comers. Despite my complaints, the pros far outweigh the cons and I'd like to reiterate that this is an exceptional series that should be watched by anyone who claims to be an anime fan.

In spite of coming from the Saga of Harry Potter, to have excellent special effects and actors of great level, the film lacks a good plot. I would have preferred to see her at home. I hope the others are more entertaining.

The cinematography obviously is stellar, but the aspect of this film seeming like one massive take is in my opinion more of a hindrance than an improvement. It's cool and unique in the beginning, but later on in the film (especially some combat scenes) there are instances where the film would massively have benefited from cutting to a different perspective. 1. It doesn't help in this case that the film starts with only two main protagonists. There are movies that pull off suspense quite well with only a few central characters (I am Legend / A Quiet Place, for instance), but this one in my opinion does not. 2. Because once you realise that since this film is one massive take, the only realistic stakes can be towards the end of the movie, (since if both of the soldiers fail at their mission early on and no new soldiers join their quest, the film can't really pan towards anything, so based on this, you now know that if the camera only follows those two around, its highly likely that at least one of the pair will survive for the near-entirety of the movie. And that's a big problem in a film depicting brutal war. (And if this didn't occur to you before, well, sorry :3). 3. It further doesn't help that a LOT of the scenes where something meaningful happens are already in the trailer. Carrying on from point #2., if you remember seeing a scene of a protagonist in this trailer that the movie hasn't caught up with yet, well, well well.... Good films only show trailers of their beginnings, and don't show anything from the 2nd or 3rd act. It's such an obvious and easily avoidable pitfall, and yet so many films try to stuff everything in the trailer just to make people see the film, at the expense of the film itself. Having seen the trailer beforehand since it was practically everywhere, this was very bad. The plane scene, and the running-trench scene, were particularly egregious examples of this. For me, this film was like reading a book, having already skimmed the synopsis. 4.When soldiers 'just miss' targets running in a straight line (not zigzagging) 15 meters in front of them, I won't lie, the film got annoying for me, that's literally one of the easiest shots to take. Shoot in the back, fin. Positives: Acting was good to very good, soundtrack, sound editing, and set design were spot on, and the story premise was decent. I truly felt for the characters, and I hear that it's based on a true story too, which is also cool. But Saving Private Ryan had a similar premise, however that movie was executed way better. Overall, I didn't feel like I had wasted my money. But I felt like this could have been so much better. For logical thinkers, and for those who have seen truly great cinema, this will definitely be overrated for you.

So back in 2008, this was one of the few movies I had in my house with no cable and limited internet. Streaming wasn't a thing. I had to cycle through the same 30 some odd movies if I wanted television entertainment. That lasted about two years. What I'm saying is, I've seen this movie more times than I could possibly count. To this day, I laugh every time. If you told me that was Russell Brand in real life, I'd believe you 100%. He is so convincing with his character and completely hilarious while he does it. Paul Rudd has a small part and all of it is absolute gold. Bill Hader as well. The end drags a bit for me. I'm with Sarah when she says she just doesn't "get" the whole Dracula puppet musical. It's fine I guess. The rest of the movie is funny enough that it isn't a big deal. It's not a purely dirty humor movie, there is definitely some heart and cuteness intertwined. Overall a staple in my comedy collection.

Much is made of Prof Kip Thorne's involvement to ensure realistic representation of the underlying physics. He's having a laugh, all the way to the bank as Arthur C Clark said after 2001, A Space Odyssey. Still, both films were excellent entertainment.

This show is not that great if we look 0roperly we can find some really amazing shows other than this like fullmetal alchemist brotherhood amd all but this is not that great.

Honestly went in hoping it was going to be great boy was I wrong. From the first episode on it was loosely based on the game and seemed to borrow more from TWD. Pascal was a good and believable casting option. Bella however has no real feeling of anything like the basis for her character. Personally I can't get a young much less talented Haley Joel Osment vibe from her in looks as well. I feel something with this much beloved story line to speak off should have been taken from much further than it was. I feel like this was made for an audience that may know the game exists but has never really played the game it fails on so many levels if I could give it a 0 I would. Even though it seems to try very hard to get you to care about the characters I find it hard if not nearly impossible to connect with any of them. This show is boring and slow which wouldn't be bad if the could produce some sort real tension. Watch at your own risk.

Waaaaaay toooo long to keep emotions to watch further. Need to improve or change storytelling this will third movie of director on relatively same topic.

Too many characters, no need for Ani. No need for flash backs, should have done the show in order. Couldnt make it pass ep 3 on season 3.

This Movie Looks Fine But It's Just Sooooo Boring But It's A Good Movie

This should have NEVER happened. The Godfather part one was a wonderful film in 1972. We got to know the family, the business, the violence. In 1974, Francis Ford Coppola does a sequel. And it's just as brilliant as the original. I'm writing this in 2003 which will definately go down in film history as "The Year of the Sequels" and not one of those will come near this rare occurance of an epic of a saga. The real term here is "saga". I got the feeling watching that "The Godfather part two" was NOT done for "sequel's" sake. It was done to complete a story, to answer questions and to get into your mind as to why things turned out for these folks the they way they did. Some things in the Godfather part two you never saw coming. That is the mark of good filmmaking...keeping you on your toes. A few things you KNEW were coming, you may have been upset to see why, but you watch to see HOW it will unfold. The Godfather part 2 gives you history about Vito and at the same time shows you how his youngest son Michael is taking hold. You're interested in both..watching the past and present unfold and realizing HOW their futures entwine. A rare film making experience. And even rarer than that, The Godfather part one is chosen best film of 1972, the Godfather part two is chosen best film of 1974. Both, deservingly so. I got to see The Godfather part 2 as a salute to Francis Ford Coppola on the Los Angeles based "Z" channel immediately following The Godfather part one. The only other film I sat this long through mesmerized and thrilled with at that time was "Fanny and Alexander"... and when you're young, its HARD to sit still. The Godfather Part 2 is a rare film indeed, another to include in the top 25 of all time.
