Yes I got most of the references. But nostalgia does not a good movie make. I think Spielberg has jumped his shark. Disclosure: yeah I'm Furious about his suggestion that Netflix films should compete unded the Emmy's competition. But that pissed me off after I saw this dreck. I'm quite pleased that others loved it beca... | 4 |
John Wick 2 more or less follows the same pattern of the first movie, delivering a relatively shallow story that serves as an excuse to reveal what a bad mamma jamma Mr. Wick is. Except it doesn't really work here, because we already know what Wick can do, and his motivation this time around isn't nearly as powerful. S... | 4 |
First episode watched, oh man...
i was engagingly glued to the screen. and i am left - unlike with true detective s1 where i was clever and waited till i have the whole season in front of me - impatient, anxious, longing for more, nervous.
acting, pace, cinematography..everything good. good-good! i have n o t h i n g... | 8 |
To say it clearly: For me it was a pure waste of time. It's a movie made for children (12-15), but was advertised differently. Besides that it hat a thin story. Constantly talking to the audience didn't help either. Would not recommend unless you have seen everything else on this planet before. | 3 |
This was a watchable film, (that could have been a good film) if it wasn't let down by plot holes
Such as police cars chasing an airliner taking off trying to stop it taking off - just radio the pilots, even if in the air, they have radio, for emphasis you could even scramble a fighter.
Scenes that treat the audience... | 7 |
Jason Bateman was touted all throughout the promos for this show. He stars in the first two episodes (the only good episodes), then he completely disappears from the show. He's in jail wrongly convicted. But somehow the show never ever comes back to explain what happened to him, or why his wife/ family never checks on ... | 4 |
But great Many Questions very few answers The town almost reminds me of stepford wives | 9 |
Captain America Civil War was a flawed Masterpiece! It has everything I could ask for with Spider-Man and Black Panther being great new characters. Iron man and Captain America having amazing motivations to be fighting. Every character feels so down to earth and real in this Marvel movie. There are a few things I do ha... | 8 |
Well executed on many levels. But when a non english speaking film wins an Oscar for best picture, needles to say the expectations are really high, and for my money they did not reach all the way. Half way thru I felt it was promising, but the last half hour lowered the rating for me. Over all a good movie but no way n... | 6 |
Henry Cavill carried the whole show in his shoulders. But the poor direction kinda ruined it. Director must have given the hint of different timelines in start. Poor performnce and odd sequencing of events was the low for this show. | 7 |
Have you ever wondered what The Boys would be if you kept all the gore and shocking elements, but removed all subtlety? Gen V doesn't do a great job at much, but it certainly does a good job answering that question.
Everything from script to characters and cinematography looks and feels generic. As if a child has trie... | 4 |
Love comic books, Daredevil was one of my favorites. The Ben Affleck movie is widely panned but I thought it wasn't that bad. I thought the worst part of it was Colin Farrell as Bullseye, very annoying. However this show is miles better than that movie. The acting is on point, Vincent D'onofrio is incredible as Wilson ... | 9 |
Where to start.
The good; opening scene is reminiscent of bilbo sitting under tree at the start of the LOTR and is totally unrealistic but then gets creative and shows some real promise as it delves into the trenches which are sadly too sanitised and unrealistic and more reminiscent of a video game than real life. And... | 2 |
The anchor of Umbrella Academy is the family dynamic, the ever-impending apocalypse and the perpetually ever-more-complicated timeline-meddling that folds around it. There are some legitimately impressive setpieces dotted throughout and the core cast are glorious and have palpable chemistry. Sometimes it got a little l... | 8 |
The first season of Only Murders in The Building was great. It was funny, well paced and tense at points. Season 2 was fine, everything between the first and last episode of the season was painfully slow. Hopefully season 3 retains the magic of season 1. | 9 |
*Sigh* I was so excited about this series, especially after reading the reviews here, but this was a big disappointment. It has a two dimensional story, with no real character developement, the story is dragging on, I started skipping scenes after the 2nd episode and by the 5th I just skipped to the part where it looke... | 3 |
WandaVision presented the regular audience of MCU with a new ominous mix of genres of sitcom, horror, and mystery. The series began with a 50's sitcom type and proceeded to change the time period with every episode, ending the sitcom-style with something similar to "The Office". The first two episodes were bland in com... | 4 |
Overall very good movie.
Try (not) playing a drinking game when someone says "Yeah" in the movie :) | 9 |
Terror in Resonance might be one of the more interesting shows I have seen, but not in the way that you would think. I'll explain
I was introduced to Terror in Resonance by it's music. Mainly the bike chase scene in episode 4. And i was amazed by it. The music coupled with the very flowy animation, it has created a pl... | 8 |
In terms of character study, this film is only rivaled by a few other movies in the last 30 years. Perhaps "The Godfather", maybe "Patton" and a very few others would approach a par on level of character study. Each one was superb, and right on cue. The dark comedy timing was excellent, in addition to the extreme natur... | 9 |
This movie was out of the box...edge of the seat thriller and not a single frame in the movie which went to waste. Brilliant! | 10 |
Well I can see, season 2 is divisive. Maybe the reason is what season 1 left for us, on a high note and season 2 starts with yet another back story of gaitonde and his downfall as a gangster. For me that was a great way to start the show beacuase it gives us more context to the actions taken by gaitonde in season 1. Sa... | 8 |
For someone who is familiar with the state of the Indian Cable TV entertainment since the past one and a half decade, this series is the breeze of fresh air that we have been longing for. Only streaming is the way out of the regular Indian soap opera monopoly. If those shows and this series were to be put on the same s... | 8 |
... but a completely different experience. You are submerged during this time in the world that surrounds the main characters, close to what they're thinking/feeling. I found myself more than once trying to make the camera move to see another angle. It is impressively made. | 8 |
Its getting hype as it's a masterpiece. But actually it's just like bb video but longer and out of his house. Nothing special that will make your mind blown. But worth a watch. | 6 |
Hollywood hypes itself and many of you swallow the bait . They take your money for a mediocre films that get better rating due to the hype . New films are the same old components juggled around and reheated . This dinosaur is looking old and pale and weary and Cruz is the same . | 1 |
Good show, seen it when it first came out and watched it all over 3 days. | 9 |
Johnny Depp has always attracted outlandish vibes to himself so it was inevitable that he would appear in the magic world and for a moment there I was genuinely happy about that. That was before I have watched the movie.
Pushing the boat from the pier we still have the previous part in mind with its miraculous imagery... | 2 |
stolen from the anime PAPRIKA ,watch paprika and you'll know what i mean. almost every single detail is stolen from it , you call Nolan a genius i call him a thief ,he is a genius in the art of stealing the hall damn thing was a stolen nightmare that am happy that i woke up from ,or did i? too bad i don't have that lit... | 1 |
Genuenly thought this show had enough on its sleeve to be the best Marvel TV show so far on account of their dissapointing executions towards their endings... However, this one for me was sensed as the largest missed opportunity thus far.
The whole concept of alternate realities that allow writers and producers to go ... | 4 |
I feel like season 1 is good and I was really excited for the new season and now that its out...its TERRIBLE. Season 2 is so slow and draggy. The main character is annoying. Its so dreadful to finish 1 episode of this season. | 5 |
I loved this show but and theres always a but. I was not keen on the new season 6 and very disappointed. It was more horror, drama and less Sci-fi. Black mirror is all about the sci-fi. This new season just didn't work for me. The stories were nothing new and done a hundred times before. Its such a huge shame as this w... | 5 |
Started off nicely. The first episode was promissing. I have just watched episode 7 but i have forwarded it most of the time. I was starting to get bored from episode 4-5 onwards and the whole melancholic atmosphere is realy starting to annoy me now. It is much of the the same every episode. This story can easily be to... | 5 |
The MCU is getting mighty unwieldy. Doctor Strange 2 is the twenty-seventh film in Marvel's expansive franchise, and the fabric of the universe is starting to stretch uncomfortably thin. Throughout phase 4, Marvel has made two bold assumptions; one, that audiences continue to relate to their characters, despite the fac... | 2 |
Visually Brilliant at times (and not so much sometimes) but vapid and pointless otherwise. All this comes down to is a remake of Moulin Rouge!, which I think is a flawed gem, but without the humour or enthrallingly joyous and silly musical numbers. Luhrmann, who is a great talent as is the entire cast, has reduced Fitz... | 3 |
Iron Man 2 takes a deep, dark look at the man behind Iron Man, specifically at his inner demons. We all have them, our specific regrets that make us who we are. Tony thinking his father was never fond of him nor wanted him around. The fact that alcohol becomes a crutch to lean on as he battles the fact that he might be... | 8 |
This movie really doesn't hold back. Within the first 2 minutes the movies tells you how far it's going to go...and it's further than I expected.
What follows on a half hour teen dramedy where the teens are making choices that, if they were handled by lesser directors, might seem unbelievable. However, the characters ... | 7 |
There is potential in the idea of a Nazi spoof but the creators are not up to par. The standard of humor or writing is very low. Where is Mel Brooks when you need him. This movie tries too hard cramming slapstick or unfunny jokes. The result is their are some funny moments but they are few and far between. The bad joke... | 3 |
I've been looking forward to seeing this movie for ages, when I finally got to see I don't I've been so disappointed in a film in a long while. There's virtually no dialogue, plenty of explosions and lots of music. There is some great images but they don't make up for the overall tedium. Everyone raves about well Harry... | 2 |
So overrated. I really don't get the hype. Mediocre and boring writing that merely follows an often used pattern. I don't even remember the plot. I'm so sick and tired of this Netflix formula for "minority sensitive" film-making that's anything but truly sensitive. If they wanted to do it properly, there wouldn't just ... | 4 |
Horrible pacing, it's almost half way done, and we still haven't gotten anything interesting. Characters are annoying, and just an overall bad show. Just watch it for the MCU, like me. | 1 |
I'm guessing that it's a twist on the Charles Mason murders because the neighbors had the heiress of the coffee company and Sharon was pregnant and that describes the victims of Masons last mass murder and the movie was changing the outcome but that all happens in the last 20 min and everything else before that is just... | 4 |
The best episode in Attack On Titan. Very very good, and fun. | 10 |
Fresh, funny crime drama with awesome cast and cameo appearances like Sting, Tina Fey, Amy Schumer, Shirley MacLaine et al and an wonderful ensemble cast. Steve Martin and Martin Short are brilliant - as always- dishing out comedy with a delicious twist. Selena Gomez is a terrific addition and a surprisingly good fit t... | 10 |
This series has me dumbfounded as I simply don't understand how such a disjointed mess can be so popular. The writing has the feel that a bunch of ADD monkeys on Meth banged out the script. It's quippy, snippy, bitchy and not all that funny. Shows that focus on dysfunction take so much energy from the viewer that I sim... | 6 |
Ordinary direction, commonplace storyline and awful acting a part from that Gaidonde | 1 |
Steven Spielberg, when the name appears, you imagine something big, something extra ordinary and a movie which will certainly be like none other.
Here is the grand master telling the story as to how the grand master achieved his status, the struggles he faced, the family issues, the betrayal, the experience and his pa... | 5 |
I had a hard time getting through the first hour, because the characters are very platonic and the story takes it's time to start. Once it does though, I enjoyed following it. Some twists were very obvious, others were surprising. The ending is too much for me, Johnson takes it to far there. I didn't really laugh very ... | 6 |
After spending the first part of the day rewatching two of my favourites, Batman Begins and then The Dark Knight, we rushed to get comfortable in our seats and watch the 'conclusion' to Christopher Nolan's Batman series. My friends and I had high hopes and formidable confidence that the director would not let us down. ... | 2 |
Absolutely not! Glass Onion is atrociously bad. Slow movement, ridiculous plot, with an ending( all that sophomoric , puerile glass shattering destruction) that was over the top dumb. Who was the murderer.- who cares No mystery here at all. And most depressingly of all- Daniel Craig's overwrought performance. Not his f... | 3 |
This is my first IMDb review and I don't know why am I writing this although I am not into this review thing :P...Maybe the movie drove me here. First things first....Aamir Khan - take a bow for this man.He always did everything right.Fits into every single role as if there's no one on the planet who can do them so per... | 10 |
All the elements in this series are great.Cinematography, acting, cast, music, directing. I wish they had built up Wilson Fisk's personality better. It starts very strong with the art scene.But it goes downward from there. Compare his character with Falcone in Gotham. He is calmness is menacing. He walks behind a man i... | 7 |
24 is very unique. It is probably the only TV show i can recall which tries to maintain suspense and action in every second of every episode. There is hardly any dull moment. But In its effort to be this non-stop edge of the seat thriller, it often insults the audience's intelligence, it repeats the same tricks, commit... | 7 |
Some of the acting is very good, some is pretty bad, but overall it's good.
The problem I have with this show is the writing is incredibly dull and simplistic. It's also gratuitously crude. I actually feel like this is written to appeal to children with no life experience, but then there are a half dozen scenes in eve... | 6 |
The fact that this is based on true events kind of gets me. I didn't expect some of the scenes to be played to the t. You can tell the actors worked hard to make the scenes believable in all sorts of ways. The way the director made the cameramen use the most incredible over--the-shoulder shots is fantastic, it makes ev... | 5 |
Although the visuals in the movie were stunning, the film felt too long and I lost interest at one point. Additionally, the plot felt repetitive and unoriginal, as it seemed like a copy-paste of the first movie with the discovery of a new part of Pandora. The use of both 48fps and 24fps scenes also detracted from the f... | 4 |
I really enjoy the series. Creative story telling and some very funny dialogue. I'm not happy that they went back to weekly episode releases, but it is what it is.
The only thing I don't enjoy about the series is the constant political agenda that's pushed down your throat. You can clearly see that the writers and dir... | 7 |
This reboot is very much like that of Battlestar Galactica. The premise is essentially the same, but the writers and producers have turned the characters upside down. Thus you need to go into this understanding that it will not be like the original series in many ways and you may or may not like the character changes..... | 8 |
No background studies at all. Hollywood got tired of misrepresenting African countries, so this time they come up with a country they heard for the first time. | 1 |
I have been a fan of Holmes since I was a kid and when I heard about this "updating", I was convinced that the BBC would make a hash of it. As a fan of the Jeremy Brett series, I did not consider that taking Holmes out of his Victorian environment would be a good idea. How wrong I was!
I found the first episode of thi... | 9 |
I'm gonna make you an offer you cant refuse......... watch Fanboy & Chum Chum, it's so good | 2 |
I went to see this film, feeling I had to after the rave critic reviews, the 14 Oscar nominations and the high IMDb score. I am not a great fan of musicals but remember Grease etc for some great dancing and singing. I went with my wife and 3 friends. Usually our perceptions and views on a film are quite varied! In the ... | 6 |
Everything about this movie was incredible. The casting was on point, the sets are eye catching, the soundtrack is delectable! I can not express how much this movie has impacted my life. After seeing it not once, not twice, but three times it gets better and better every time. This movie is so hilarious while also bein... | 10 |
While watching this show, it was very confusing what was going on but I like the direction they were going for. As the episodes goes on, you started to learn about what's happening and there were shocking answers and twists here and there and I love that about WandaVision. This is something new we have never seen from ... | 8 |
'.. no matter how many layers you peel, you can see right through the center'. Which pretty much sums up this film. Don't worry, you won't miss the clue, and if you did, Detective Benoit will explain everything.
The story is weaker, compared to its prior film, there's one too many 'gotcha' moment, and at times somewha... | 8 |
This was a funny little murder mystery with plenty of red herrings. Acting was superb and production excellent. It is funny that the best joke in series is saved for last, well the last episode. Well done, looking forward to the next season. | 8 |
As I watched "Lost In Space" (LiS)(2018), I kept wondering, "For whom is this written?". The best I can figure, it's written by men for pre-teen girls; preferably, girls who liked Jurassic Park (1993), Star Trek: Voyager (1995)(esp. starting season 4, featuring the Borg), and A Series of Unfortunate Events (2017). LiS ... | 5 |
If this show was marketed as a generic fantasy, then I would rate it as 5/10. It has good cinematography and the opening scenes is great. Most fight scenes and CGI vary in quality from mediocre to very poor.
But it was marketed as an adaptation of the books, and as such it is 0/10. People who think otherwise are weari... | 1 |
The six previous Harry Potter films were good in their own right, however part one of the seventh installment is director David Yates's masterpiece (since he took over the series with The Order of The Phoenix in 2007). Yates targets a more adult and grown up audience in this film, however, it is a very familiar audienc... | 9 |
The first season is just horrible. Nothing happens of any interest. It is not funny, it is not mysterious, it is not romantic, it has no plot, the characters are unremarkable. Slice of life typically has some other element beyond just pointless rambling dialogue or at the very least has good character building. This ha... | 1 |
I haven't watched one that I really enjoyed. I have watched three trying to give it a chance. I feel like it's geared toward teens but there is adult content depending on how old that teen would be. It's giving me a very poor copy of twilight zone. Doesn't hold interest or tie a story together. I scratch my head and sa... | 3 |
The 1st 18 minutes is LITERALLY a car chase with about 8 bystanders being injured. Ok. THEN - a '15 minutes ago' '6 months earlier ' 'Present day' '4 years ago' 'Present Day' In the 1st 40 minutes, I went back and rewatched several scenes, thinking my WIFI was skipping important parts. No, it wasn't. I've not ever said... | 4 |
I haven't watched a sitcom since Frazier went off the air. As so many others have already written, it is witty, engaging, entertaining and all out fun. It does't pander to the lowest common denominator nor insult a viewer's intelligence. The writing and performances are spot on while the story captivates the viewer. Pl... | 10 |
i just cant understand what the fuss is all about? finally i watched it and guess what there was nothing special about this movie. its the greatest example how the IMDb ranking deceives. the characters speak in some cheesy accent (and this movie was praised for its accurate use of accent!) what a dumb movie.there is no... | 1 |
It is really good BUT.. I have to say.. the violence ending in death is made so trivial with no remorse for death.
I wouldn't normally care but I know children are watching this and It might make kids think that it's really normal and kinda fun to murder as it's lightly played and glorified. Also there are no police o... | 8 |
I understood the first season and the need to understand why a teen might feel like committing suicide. However, season two seems to be interested in shock value and just continuing a series. We all know there are horrible things that happen and we can fill in the blanks without being shown despicable acts such as the ... | 2 |
Absolute rubbish. Not even worth my words. Other people here must be on drugs. Crap. | 2 |
Slow at the beginning but as characters are introduced got MUCH better. Martin Short is his usual self, Selena Gomez's character is very flat & dry (probably written like that) Steve Martin is neurotic & lonely. Jane Lynch is hysterical. It's a madcap mystery/comedy - reminded me of It's a Mad, Mad World. Throughly enj... | 10 |
This season was the best ever , what an episode finally we know the truth. | 10 |
Iron Man 2
Super-heroes should never reveal their alias – who do you think they'll blame for all those flipped cars, smashed buildings, and dead bystanders?
Luckily, Iron Man, otherwise known as Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.), is well heeled, and can easily cover restitution.
But what he can't afford is: a Senator (... | 7 |
This show is great for a first watch because it's like a magic show for people who love adult superhero stuff. But the second time around, you figure out the biggest trick on your own and realize they only wow the audience once per episode with a memorable scene (with the exception of the pilot and finale, which need t... | 3 |
I went in thinking this had been reviewed very positively by critics, and the premise seemed like a good setup (only two men stationed alone on a small New England island). The first 30 minutes or so were decent, as you're waiting for the suspense to ramp up. But there's no real hooks, just confusing symbolism, repeate... | 3 |
Did i write film? sorry, i meant to write "HDRish, over-digitized smartphone lookalike shots with editing that looks like they were made by an anxious teenager. why TF cant you make an action flick without huge amount of gore and slime? dont you trust the script? do you really think so little of your viewers that you m... | 2 |
This series has it all. Its scary, Its intriguing, its tense, its happy,its sad,its romance, its everything. Loved it. However there is 1 thing that snatched away that 10 stars is that it follows the same theme again. Which honestly gets quite boring. Other than that. Splendid. | 9 |
Move along folks. Nothing to see here. A horror movie that isn't scary. Just all the same tired old cliches and stupid scenes we've seen too many times before. After all they went through the next morning they're talking about going to homecoming? Really? Just another example of spoiling a franchise with lousy movies t... | 3 |
Sorry I stayed to see this piece of junk through. A waste of good actors and if goid talent. Gratuitous violence and a whole lot of crap and nothing. | 1 |
For me, one of the best movies in this year!! It has plot, very cute good guy who looks great in Spider-Man costume, fascinating bad guy who decided to be bad after tragedy that happened to him, girl who means everything to Spider-Man and of course, saving the city. In contrary with Spider-Man, in Spider-Man 2 psycholo... | 9 |
It's original, smart and funny. Solid cast including John Olivet! | 6 |
In desperation to shotgun this thing into action, the writers shamefully missed an opportunity to create a slow burn. What we are left with is awkward pacing and bad story structure.
Matthew Goode was greatly cast and works well with the terrible lines they gave him. Teresa Palmer is unbelievable as a professor and de... | 3 |
The weakest of the Avengers films that I have seen. It is an absolute mess. The plot is all over the place and impossible to follow. Action scenes roll into endless action scenes. Too many characters are thrown in and discarded again almost immediately. Characters change motivations with almost no explanation. All this... | 4 |
If you are looking for something different that is about super heroes this tv show is the one, very entertaining with very good scenes of action. | 8 |
Loved the visuals, especially the underwater scenes as these were awesome in 3D (definitely see it in 3D for this alone) but hated the crappy 'Family' plot. I get that this is supposed to be a family friendly movie but it was a Vomitfest throughout! Zero plot unless you call repeatedly saving your brats plot. It was so... | 2 |
Great premise for a series and Tick is a great character. However, Arthur is so irritating that he ruins everything. He is a very whiny and has no backbone. I wish the show only focused on the Tick. | 4 |
I go simple and direct. This beautiful and emotional film has only 2 flaws, and one of them doesn't even bother me that much: Its Duration and the character Monica (Chloe East); Spielberg shows once again why he is one of the greatest directors in the history of cinema, his script is a bit lacking in the part that invo... | 9 |
First the visuals are beautiful but the story is pedestrian and moves at a snails pace. Nicole Kidman needs to stop with the overuse of injectables, her face never moves and her one note acting in this is truly disappointing. What happened to the actress who wowed in The Hours? I understand the pressure to look good bu... | 1 |
Dunkirk-A Review.
Dunkirk is wonderful to look at, however, it is at once too much and too little. There are too many cuts and too many subplots that it is easy to lose interest in what is happening. The cuts come quickly, which works with the air and action scenes, but holding longer on some shots would have allowed ... | 6 |
The movie starts off at just the right pace, the main characters set off into no mans land and quite frankly it's nail biting. Everything looks perfect, he'll on earth. But it kinda stalls, it never really gets going. I'm probably quite shallow, but I wanted a major battle. However it's not that sort of story. This is ... | 6 |
What can i say about this movie? Not much really.
Adam Sandler has made another movie and it's not great. I think the only draw for this movie is the same draw for every movie of this type. The fun of trying to guess who the murderer is from the get go. I wouldn't recommend watching alone as all the fun is taken away.... | 5 |
Undoubtedly one of the best gangster films of not only Bollywood but also all film industries, this Indian 2 part crime film is a flawless masterpiece directed by Anurag Kashyap. Portraying the crudest forms of social evils, conflicts, vengeance ridden acts, gang wars, class difference, illegal arms and drugs dealing, ... | 10 |
It's a good entertaining movie, but for me it was very predictable. For those who are not in touch with other cultures or poverty issue may find this movie very innovative, but it has long sequences that are very boring. But overall, if you are someone who watch movies regularly, you will find this very predictable. I ... | 5 |
