VIP3I can allow for some creative leeway for video game adaptations, but get this YA crap out of the show before it ruins it. I was hoping seeing teens exploded by plasma fire was a promising sign but they kept one of these annoying idiots alive and now John has to babysit and do stupid stuff like take his helmet off, rooting for a brute to rip her head off. Also the elite design is bizarre…it looks like they only played infinite and got confused what was a brute and what was an elite. Also i hope they didnt completely removed grunts, that would have been amazing comedic relief
wtf is with 80s sequels and the "just add kids" formula? They all suck. Movie starts off entertaining, then the child actors come in and its down hill from there.
VIP3These stories are somewhat interesting, but aren't compelling. The cases are pretty clear cut and not much is up for debate. I guess it may challenge your opinion on the death penalty itself by exposing the flaws of the system, not whether they are guilty or deserve the death penalty.
The characters are just stupid...I constantly root against them and cheer on the hordes. As long as Victor Strand is alive I'll keep watching.
VIP3Right off the cliff and into FBI MOST WANTED lol, this storyline went on for way too long and might have continued longer if he wasn't casted in FBI MW.
VIP3The pacing is horrendous throughout. There's slow and then there's Dannemora. The problem is the first half isn't that interesting which makes it painful. But even during the interesting part of the escape, scenes tend to linger for 10 minutes longer than they need to. It feels like Ben Stiller was trying to meet a page requirement or something.
TEAM MONKE
APES TOGETHER STRONG
First half is decent, then Michael Bay gets "Space Dementia" and gets carried away in the second half.
This show is filthy, occasionally funny. Still can't believe it aired on broadcast tv.
Not a bad documentary, but seemed rushed out the door. I fell like the annoying text-to-speech was more out of necessity than a creative decision.
This felt like the Avatar of its time. Impressive visuals, but just painfully boring and slow to watch. Pretty overrated, but I think most of its legacy is its influence on better 80s movies.
VIP3The action sequences were solid, particularly the martial arts, and the casting and acting were also fine but the script is a mess, the pacing is off, and the second half feels goofy and disjointed from the first half. The second half action was difficult to follow and felt like a DC cluster f--- aimed at the Chinese market. HOWEVER, I am looking forward to seeing Shang-Chi utilized in the future films.
VIP3EDIT: upon rewatch, I believe the open bar and pageantry of the premiere enabled me to put on goggles that shielded me from the trainwreck that is this film. Rian Johnson is a sorry excuse for a writer. It will probably be retconned at least 5 times in episode 9.
World Premiere Review: Vague, Spoiler-Free Edition
It was amazing. It still does nostalgic fan service, but nowhere near what Episode 7 or Rogue One felt like. It feels like its own film. It gets a little slow and repetitive in the last half of the first third of the film, but after the major show down in the middle of the film, it's non-stop action that's brilliantly paced. GO SEE IT!
VIP3World Premiere Review:
It was ok. It's not entirely interesting and it's the standard Marvel formula. However, it's lacking a critical element of a Marvel hero: a flaw. The best thing about the MCU is that there isn't a Superman equivalent...but there is now and I'm not sure I like it. I'm afraid now that Endgame concludes with believing in yourself can defeat Thanos...
Second watch: The main issue remains Captain Miscast
VIP32 hours of skeevy youtubers showing you how smart they think they are could have been cut...really is a documentary about how scummy some youtubers are.
VIP3World Premiere Impressions: Ugh, Chloe Zhao was a terrible choice for director. How she paces a movie made this feel excruciatingly long. This movie is also very DC in that its so visually dark, depressing, and takes itself so seriously, something Kevin Feige said would never happen to a Marvel movie. Basically everything you hated about Nomadland is in this... Now a handful of bright spots: some decent performances, especially Kumail and his assistant, they saved this movie from being a disaster. The Eternals overall are fine, but its really difficult to care about them considering their origin and nature. I also hated the design of the deviants. I was hoping to see things that had some semblance of Thanos as he is a Deviant in the comics. It appears they are treating him specifically as a "titan". The mindless animalistic Deviants in this are boring, uninteresting.
VIP3The movie is boring, but hilarious if watched with friends. 5/10 for bare Hulk butt. This movie is a crime against editing, my eyes were bleeding by the end of it. Almost made me as nauseous as Battlefield Earth did.
VIP3Beautiful film, but pacing is excruciatingly slow as the very simple story is stretched out too much and the characters are too boring to carry it. Its still required reading for movie lovers, but its not a classic I’m wanting to revisit anytime soon
VIP3Just give us a Handsome Cavill Sherlock series/movie...unfortunately this was terribly boring.
VIP3These old Bond films just do not hold up well. Sean Connery's one-liners never get old, but good god the pacing is horrendously slow and action is repetitive. The Connery Bond films are just, SET PIECES: THE MOVIE. If have to watch one more blast door or rocket silo open, I'm gonna Xenia an Onatopp.
VIP3For some reason, whenever Ricky speaks, he reminds me of Travolta in The Fanatic, he literally sounds brain damaged.
VIP3This movie might have been good if the thing wasn't so miscast
This might be the original Dhar Mann, but less unhinged. If watching on Paramount+ you are missing the "what the [heck] were they thinking" episodes dealing with white supremacy, abortion, etc. Thankfully Freevee fills in the blanks that CBS would prefer you forgot about. Unless you are Kevin Sorbo, this is background viewing.
Was that a reference to the McPoyle roof scene from Always Sunny…this show is painfully cringe
Really dumb, but at least Dolph Lundgren steals the show by hamming it up to 11.
The editing is on par with Hulk (2003). This movie is a giant meme. Go in thinking this for maximum results.
The ending is pretty anticlimactic and BORING.
Whoever designed that Mr Freeze suit should be embarrassed. Star wars storm trooper / astronaut crap
