Oddly enough I took my sweet time getting around to watching "The Witcher" as it was based on a computer game, and those movies then to do quite poorly. But after several people telling me that I, as an avid player of role-playing games, should sit down and watch "The Witcher", I eventually did.
Turns out that I was m... | 8 |
Inception was okay, it was well produced and directed and kept my attention throughout, so that's why I give it a 7 instead of a 6.
Having seen the trailer, I went into it expecting a mind bending movie with a dreamlike script, but instead it's basically a puzzle movie with lots of run-of-the-mill shoot-em-up action. ... | 7 |
The storyline jumps around massively in terms of timeline; that's not necessarily a bad thing, e.g. I liked the way it was done in the film Dunkirk.
However in that film the viewer was told when things were happening even if they weren't in sequence. In the Witcher there is absolutely nothing to tell you that which is... | 7 |
I love Tarantino movies and like Leo and Brad. Looks good. Can't wait.
A quarter of the way in....sometimes you have to give these movies a chance to develop....
Half way in.....wife has fallen asleep.....ok, this has got to be going somewhere, right?
Three quarters finished.....this might not be going anywhere.

I watched this because I grew up reading Marvel Comics, I've loved the big-screen Marvel Movies, and I really like Josh Whedon's past work, including "The Avengers".
That being said, while literally opening with a "Bang", the show wasn't everything I hoped for, yet it shows the potential for more--much more. Its unfai... | 8 |
No magic so far (Episodes 1-3), dragons aren't as huge as I expected considering the lore of the past explained in GOT. It's more like Rome or The Tudors than GOT. No comedy relief, no big personalities or colourful backstories with Tyrion, LittleFinger or Varys. I hope they'll be bringing in some supernatural elements... | 8 |
Ah, humanity.. if the collective decides that something is good, cool and great, it sees it through tragically twisted perspective. This time, everyone just seems to fall under the brainwashing hype train of this whole Marvel cinematic universe cultural farce. Let's just shut our brains off and ignore the absolutlely O... | 3 |
Wonder Woman started off really well with stunning visuals of Thermyscira the island created by Zeus for the Amazonian women.They did a good job portraying it to be untouched by the modern era. As well as an excellent job of developing the secondary characters that Steve (the main character) brings, given the run time.... | 5 |
The movie is extremely simple in design: young boy is separated from his pack of hunter-gatherers and has to get back home. They don't even speak English, although what they speak is "translated" to English. I don't know how they watch it in the US, considering their fear of subtitles. Dubbed? It is part survival movie... | 7 |
Best Engaging Movie & Story Worth 10 stars, You Will Realize. | 10 |
Easily my least favourite Marvel movie ever.
It has every problem marvel movies tend to have but worse. First of all, it relies heavily on you having seen WandaVision for large parts of it. The plot is formulaic. The fight scenes are flashy and nonsensical with no way to know who's winning and absolutely NO TENSION. T... | 2 |
My Hero Acadamia is a story told by Izuku "Deku" Miyadoria, a teenage boy, born without any superpowers (quirks) who now with help from number one hero, All Might, with many other kids, learn to become superheroes.
This show is so so good for so many reasons. The best thing about this show in my opinion and it's bigge... | 9 |
Boring. Horrible movie. Started interestingly then went no where. Only Pankaj Tripathi was good. Everyone else acted miserably. | 2 |
Slow seems to be a good word to describe it.
It was almost like watching HP7pt1. Not a lot of action, just enough to keep a person watching, but seeming like a stringer for the second part only.
Sadly, not overly impressed and I have always likes the HP movies and Beasts as well.
This one missed the mark for me. | 3 |
Mixed emotions. On the one hand, great reconstruction of the Soviet environment of the mid-eighties, great work on the depicting of the disaster, the victims. Unfortunatelly, complete failure on showing the insight of the people, the political affairs etc. Almost childish, unnatural characters. Who could believe that t... | 1 |
I'm a fan of GOT and have a lot of recpect to criminal affairs lihe HOMELAND, HOUSE OF CARDS ets.
So rating of 8.1 forced me to check it out.
I was intrugued from the 1st serie but afterward - a long ladder of disappointment.
Everything about this tv-series is a cliche and templates. Script is very simple and stupid... | 3 |
I'm no actual movie connoisseur, im just having fun.
I absolutely adored this show when it came out, loved the characters and the dynamic (except for a couple things *cough *cough* like incest) anywho. I enjoyed watching it all. I especially enjoyed ben and klaus' dynamic, which makes sense for someone who likes the "... | 6 |
When I heard this movie was being made, I wanted to see it. But, I missed it at the theaters. To say I was disappointed would be an extreme understatement, as my 4 star rating attests. Actually, it's a generous 4.
I could understand the B Western performances on the film sets, but I didn't expect the B film performanc... | 4 |
I paid attention to every word, yet I was still confused during the entire time. Too many characters and way too many stories within 2 hrs 14 min. Tip for you: watch part 1 a day before. | 2 |
Paul bettany was grear. story was fresh and fabulous.Direction was really good. | 8 |
I loved the Loki character in the movies and looked forward to this series. What I got was a dumpsterful of disappointment. A pale shadow of itself. Not only was it not very funny, it wasn't even good drama. Dull, boring, and a waste of time and talent. It's only virtue was the quality of the special effects. All hype,... | 3 |
Reference to 'white priv', gender he/she pronoun suggestion, and an LGBT promotion 1/4 way through. Funny how the anti-capitalist gun grabbers can't help but make money through capitalism using guns and weapons in their movies. Sick of these liberal regressives. | 3 |
Okay, so the critics hated it and no way is it going to be the funniest film you'll see this year but this Netflix production is silly enough to produce enough belly-laughs to pass an evening. The "Murder Mystery" of the title occurs on board a yacht in the middle of the Meditteranean where Terence Stamp's billionaire ... | 6 |
There's something of a tradition in fiction of using the idiot savant to hold the mirror up to society and reflect its foibles. The figure of the Good Soldier Schweik was one I remember being introduced to in my early years at university. Forrest Gump is also a soldier for much of this picture's duration, but the satir... | 7 |
The episode is too short only 30 minutes something, compare to other series which runs around an hour | 6 |
There are very few movies that I could give them a 10/10. One of them is Kung Fu Panda 2. What can I say? It does everything right. It is as epic as the first one, has a dark but at the same time awesome story, great music, badass villain, everything is basically amazing. I just wish I could experience it for the first... | 10 |
A breath of fresh air from almost all movies made in the past 10 years. Great acting, amazing set designs and a wonderfully interesting story with a few twists! I've been so turned off with many of the movies made in the past 10 years due to poor storylines, and an extreme over abundance of CGI, which I'm guessing most... | 9 |
My wife just started some tomato seeds and watching them grow was more exciting than this snooze fest. It was a boring stream of dialogue that just droned on and on. We could not even finish this. We cut our losses about half way through. I enjoy a good mystery, But it has to keep you in suspense and it must MOVE ALONG... | 3 |
I've watched this movie just for Johnny Depp. He did a great job. But the rest of the movie is boring, especially Newt.
Sorry guys, it's not worth the money. | 2 |
Hollywood produces this kind of feel-good movie all the time: They're corny and over-sentimental, they promote traditional family values and are an example of how the little guy can live the American dream, y'all. And Forrest Gump is guilty of all of this, but somehow it all fits together and is an entertaining and gen... | 7 |
The tapes fail because after the hour of the movie the magic and the freash stars to end; so you think there's nothing interesting to still watching.
The cast it's exelent, but don't they mised all the original topic.
Very boring AND stupid. | 4 |
This is a film, coming as it does after the defeat of 'India Shining' campaign in last year's elections, for urbanites/NRIs to show them what Indian villages look like and what can be done about the problems with rural India. And it does nothing but reaffirm this superficial 'concern' for a fictional rural poor (not th... | 5 |
I cannot fathom all the good reviews for this series. Sure the production and acting is great; that's where it ends.
It starts out as a comedy, then turns into a Superhero geek fest and then ends as pointlessly as it began. | 5 |
Too Boring and for some reason the dam camera can't stay fixed, recorded with no tripods. | 1 |
I know everyone is supposed to really like this show but to me it feels like a version of The Walking Dead.
The impressive sets didn't impress any more than most other sci-fi shows. The tight camera work with a lot of close up that seem to be there to raise the tension, have been obvious and noticeable and distracting... | 8 |
All Russian intelligence officers are monsters, but all American so kind and nice. Hollywood producers, come on guys, why you are so afraid Russians? | 3 |
I do not understand the insane hype surrounding this movie. It was good. Just good. I'm a big Bong Joon Ho fan. And I get what he was going for here. Social commentary/satire with finesse. But he missed the mark with this one. This was no masterpiece, as almost everyone is calling it. Joon Ho did make a masterpiece. It... | 6 |
I'm sure there are parts that were exaggerated, But the story was well told and fit perfectly in a 5 episode series. No need to drag it on longer than it needs to be. These 5 episodes were better than the last 4 seasons of Game of Thrones. | 9 |
Intelligent horror. For once there's a horror movie with character development and a scenario they're out in that gets the audience invested in. Not since the first Elm Street movie was there ever an intelligent story about fear and loss. The movie examines the curiosity of what's on the other side of this life. Yes, i... | 10 |
The casting for his is so strange. CZJ is as gorgeous as ever, but fails to evoke the right Morticia vibes. Without the quirky mannerisms and innocently self-righteous tone, this Morticia is all dry and no quirk.
Let's forget about Gomez going from half Latino to full, he now has a NewYoRican accent, has gained 100 lb... | 2 |
I'm sorry guys. This would have been so much better if they used Russian actors with subtitles. I am struggling to get past the actors with English accents. It's ruining it for me. | 7 |
I just watched the movie about 30 Min's ago. First of all everybody must know! This screenplay is stolen from Frank HERBERT's "PANDORA trilogy" and there are small parts stolen from Ursula K. LEguin's "The Word for World is Forest" the whole movie is a bad copy of that PANDORA trilogy.. And Colonel character is stolen ... | 3 |
Calling all nerds, d&d players, lord of the rings fans, larpers, incels, cos-play types, witches, wizards, wierdos and single guys over 30 that still live with atleast one parent: You Are Gonna Love "The Witcher"
Ok if you're one of the above or have considered becoming one this is a show for you. "The Witcher" has go... | 7 |
I know that my review will get a lot of disagreements but I'm going to say this anyway.
What the hell is this? In my opinion, this is just the house of boredom and it's so dull, as some people said. I only decided to watch this show because Matt Smith was in it. I could only watched 15 minutes of the first episode and... | 1 |
So basically it's not like the book? Really really disappointed.
Ok to watch, expected more, where was her dragon?
Not sure what happened but nope.
Ok so I can only post my reviews if it's long enough... clearly my disdain was not sufficient. | 1 |
Seth (Johan Hill) and Even (Michael Cera) are best friends for years now but since they are leaving for college after their high school is done. Which their plans has changed as well, since they are not going in the same college. They would like to have one big party and hopefully trying to get laid with the girls, the... | 8 |
One of the best American comedies. Really clever and consistently funny. Amazing performances from all character, not a single weak link and rarely a dull moment in the show. Quality. | 8 |
This movie will blow your mind , will leave you speechless and give you chills at times. A must watch movie for cinema lover. It's one hell of a thrill ride. | 10 |
How does this movie have such a high rating even after so many people watching it?
I watched this movie only becos of the no of people but was completely dissapointed.
The movie started off good and the explaination of the dishes also seemed interesting at first but then it was complete downhill. I was waiting to hav... | 3 |
"Talk to Me" (2023) is hands down one of the best horror movies of the year for me. The film may be short and sweet, but let me tell you, it keeps you hooked throughout its 1 hour and 35-minute runtime. Sure, there are a few little plot holes here and there, but overall, it's definitely an enjoyable movie. The only rea... | 7 |
An incredible transition from cinema to TV, Wandavision is unique brilliance, that must be appreciated for what it is in each component part. The early episodes are a far cry from what many would have expected from the series, but if judged by what they truly are, still great. The early, fun 50/60s sitcoms are a perfec... | 9 |
There was the potential there for a very good movie, but the story line had so many holes in it, the acting was hit and miss and there was nothing holding it together.
Considering all the hype, it was a tremendous disappointment based on the story alone. | 2 |
Could have been better if not for bad and force acting all around, even for the main characters. | 4 |
Frustratingly boring after episode 2. Feel like they were filling time until the end. Agree that the cast is excellent but felt like the story was just being told to every character by every character. Blah. | 5 |
I liked the idea of an invisible entity in this film. Kind of done already in Shamalayans Happening but this time it doesn't kill - it turns you psycho with all the associated 28 days later type zombies that we have come to know, love and ultimately get bored with. The interesting thing is this entity obviously has an ... | 6 |
Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) is easily one of the best, if not THE best TV show of all time. Everything from the characters, to the setting, the the titans themselves are perfectly done. The atmosphere the show provides is also very noteworthy with it's music, camera angles, and animation. The show takes place ... | 9 |
So I knew very little about this major scandal when it broke - but then I became infatuated with it. The story is crazy and it just proves how evil some humans can be when "money" is the focal point. Don't get me wrong I think intentions were meant to be good but pressure from VCs and other investors can cause one to w... | 8 |
Lemony Snicket's "The Watchmen"
That's really all you need to know. I understand why people watch, but I mistrust the abilities of anyone who thinks this show is any better than extremely average. | 4 |
I just had to create my first review for this amazing series. This is great fun whether you're a huge superhero genre fan, or starting to feel 'franchise fatigue' set in. I'd recommend this to anyone really who likes intelligent, funny, and (very) adult subject matter, even if they would typically avoid caped hero anti... | 9 |
Thanks to Ortega's wildly entertaining blur of arch broadness and subtlety, Wednesday gets to come into her own here. The series rarely feels derivative, and the predictable plot doesn't mean it's not entertaining.
With a script that doesn't take itself too seriously, a knowing wink at the audience, some genuinely sca... | 8 |
I watched this with a group of friends who enjoy action and war movies, and we picked this one to watch solely due to its rating on IMDB. What we discovered fairly early on was how mislead we were in thinking this would be a movie worth watching.
Even for us diehard fans of war movies it was difficult to get through t... | 4 |
There's nothing keeping the story together.
Characters randomly jump from point A to B without any explanation. Why are they going there? When did they decide to move? What's this for?
There are three different arcs going in each episode (per character!) with 4 different plotlines and characters just jumping around w... | 4 |
I'm now re-watching this masterpiece again for the first time in years, and through each episode my eyes feel on the brink of watering up, it's just so well presented, written, acted, animated, everything. It's consistently funny, moving, beautiful, inspiring, creative, and always drives the plot forward in captivating... | 10 |
Very few shows are able to bring out the ethos and pathos of big city life.
Expats is a fantastic show, not only for its characters but for the way it shows Honkong in all its glory and decay. In one shot a waiter at a cafe says, "Tell the Govt, Hong Kong is a dying city." There are many shots that bring this out. A s... | 9 |
It had so much potential but the repetitive family drama is getting a bit boring. So much hugging and long separation scenes. Also whats with the constant music! | 1 |
"Red Sparrow" which is based on a book trilogy written by former CIA operative, Jason Matthews, tells a long and winding story of a premiere Russian ballerina who is trained to be a spy after suffering a career-ending injury. Jennifer Lawrence brings her "Hunger Games" star-power to this severely sluggish film which ru... | 4 |
The movie revolves around Rick Dalton, a once semi-popular actor whose career is slowly fading as the new era of Hollywood begins. The movie can be split into two parts. The first 2 hours of the film is kind of a reminiscence of the late 60s. Good acting, excellent cinematography and, as always with this director, outs... | 5 |
Must watch thrilling and entertaining that may never occur again in tamil film industry. | 10 |
This story is so derivative I felt as though I was in a coma. I remember watching this film when I was in eighth grade and thinking it was the coolest thing I've ever seen. But on rewatch the story lacks so much character development and actual "Story" that I forgot for a moment I was watching a movie that cost $400 mi... | 3 |
Indeed a great homage to Sir James Headley Chase. This is the last thriller of it's kind. Neil Nitin mukesh, Dharmendra, and every other actor outdone hemselves. | 10 |
I do not understand the big fuss about the Godfather trilogy OK yes the acting is top quality with brilliant performances from marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan, Robert Duvall and even talia Shire is good but the film just drags the whole story is boring and the films just seem to go over the same things over and ov... | 4 |
They missed important parts from the book. I know this sounds a clishe, but I've watched the series first and then read the book and then understood key points of the plot that were rushed if not even ignored in the series.
We know that the creative department always tweaks book stories, but, especially for a storylin... | 7 |
If you are a dog lover not does not matter just watch it once and you will be mind blown by the movie. I knew it is an emotional movie but never in my dreams I had thought that i would cry watching a movie it's that good. | 10 |
IronMan 2 was a missed opportunity. The spark, the magic that made the first movie so special, was all but lost here. The inclusion of Sam L Jackson as Nick Fury and Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow was completely unnecessary in terms of plot ... what one earth where they doing there? Talk about blatantly setting up t... | 6 |
Such flatness in a story of terror and intrigue.... OMG, Mary-Louise Parker as the drunky loopy lesbian. I want to see a movie about HER!! | 5 |
These first two Spider-man movies are the best of the bunch. Dr. Octopus is a great villain, and most of the effects hold up really well. (Probably the least was Spidey swinging past cg helicopters etc at the end) The story is very good and I love the cast. I wish this quality could have continued through several more ... | 9 |
Daniel Craig has serious issues when it comes to acting versus shooting and beating up people (though the least admirable James Bond as well). Some of the other characters (actors) offer a high level of acting. But at the end of the day it's about the combination of all and not one or the other little highlight. The st... | 1 |
It's been a long time since I've watched anime, the last anime I watched was the original Dragon Ball. Now this has made me fall back in love with anime and I love it! My hero is fabulously brilliant, the story the characters in fact just the whole show in general. If you're thinking about watching it just jump right i... | 9 |
Batman Begins is a muddled mess. It begins with an hour long origin story, which is almost identical to the origin story in The Shadow which is not a great film, but is a better film than this one. In this version of Batman's origin, Ras Al Ghul trains Bruce Wayne to cloud men's minds/fight evil, with brief flashback... | 3 |
At first I wasn't convinced with Ani's character at all. It seemed forced, and it was a little bit confusing. Also, suddenly she seemed an important friend for everyone and part of the group and of Clay's life, when she literally just got there. It wasn't believable. Then, after episode 10 it started to make sense why ... | 9 |
Want to see what it would really be like with super heroes around? Check this out! No kids play here folks....not for kids. Best damn series on right now....about time! | 9 |
Before "Gravity" occupies the black screen with the same ominous effect than TV series' title "Lost", you have this superposed text about the temperature and pressure in space making life impossible. When I saw this, my immediate reaction was "duh? really?", how about telling me something I don't know.
I don't mean to... | 7 |
I am an hour and ten minutes into it right now and can't believe it still has one hour and twenty minutes to go. Boring. Michelle Williams looks creepy in it, like she took Catherine Zeta-Jones's wig from Chicago and died it blonde. I'm probably going to turn it off soon. There is nothing interesting about it to wonder... | 1 |
I went to see this movie thinking it was a great world war 2 story filled with action story and suspense and with lead actors in the shape of similar world war movies like Hitler the rise of the evil, valkyria , the downfall the red thin line and so many others.
Unfortunately I was wrong. there were no main lead actor... | 1 |
This series is quite brilliant on many levels. The acting is superb, the visuals are stunning and the story lines are intense. I can hardly wait until the episode comes out, but that feeling isn't induced by operatic cliffhangers. Yes, there are twists and turns in the plot, and they're also quite brilliant, but the ov... | 10 |
Like i said in the title, the initial seasons of the show was so good and funny but somewhere inbetween the show changed a lot and got boring.. it was such a struggle to finish it. | 7 |
One the most overrated movies of entire history. I really don't understand these hypes at all.
And just imagine this piece of garbage have had 14 Oscar nominations and Christopher Nolan the most genius film maker of all times didn't even get a nomination for masterpiece like Dark Knight! | 1 |
Is it greed? Is it the limelight? What causes men to trample all over their work! I had free HBO for week and couldn't stomach it...there is like no one on this show but sweet Paddy and Ryhes(?)! GOT had mostly memorable characters and dialogue where as this is all NOT! The princess is devastatingly trite with her atti... | 1 |
I don't know what is with all these awful reviews. I didn't start out expecting to like it but I was blown away. It starts out a little slow, but by episode 3 I was hooked. I laughed, I cried, I watched the entire series in just a few days. It would've been faster, but life, you know? I feel like this show is very well... | 9 |
13 Reasons Why tackled some very important topics facing students today and wasted the opportunity to properly address these issues. Instead of dealing with the issues they decided to write overly dramatic and unrealistic episodes, and show the teens dealing with the issues exactly how they should not while simultaneou... | 1 |
After being encouraged by several friends to watch this for years, I finally made the decision to stick with it. I was not disappointed.
The complexity of this show, and the lessons it teaches: That doing the right thing is not always easy; as other lessons in morality would have us believe: are the foundations of a f... | 9 |
I'm of Hispanic descent, but happen to have picked up the Italian language to a point, that I can hold a conversation with a native speaker in most any subject, but I didn't understand almost nothing of what Deniro was talking about.

Although i waited this movie 2 years with my harry potter fan friends, this movie was really disappointing because this movie does not have a good and orijinal scenerio.Some hogwarts scenes and harrypotter things does not make a good movie.They can be use but can not create a new fantastic beasts movie.All of us were r... | 1 |
As a long-time fan of the Spider-Man franchise, it pains me to write this review. The latest installment, unfortunately, feels like nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to milk every last drop from the beloved series. Titled with the promise of exhilarating adventures, the film instead delivers a tangled mess of r... | 3 |
Tom Cruise back on form...and thank heavens for that.
With the abysmal " Mummy" still rotting in the movie graveyard...we get this little gem.
Perfectly welded with tongue in cheek and a fair pace of action. It could have gone down the violent real life events we all know about...but they decided to go down the comfo... | 7 |
I can't speak for the reviews that bash this show for the first three episodes. All I can say is that the writing is on the wall from episode one. All is not what it seems. Once the veil is lifted, you get what you've been craving for since Infinity War (but didnt know you wanted). Dark, visceral, vulnerable, delicate.... | 9 |
The last if us is good, but it's far from what the inflated rating would have you believe.
The acting is solid, the story is okay. But I cant see were the 9.1 rating is coming from.
The first episode was good, the second episode meandered away from the main story to show us a love story, which basically didn't progre... | 7 |
Hello to all,
Yesturday i entered the movie theater waiting to get a dose of James Cameron's undisputed talent. Eyes wide open and balanced expectation I waited for the movie to catch me in a wild and thrilling world that was promised to be delivered.
3D glasses or not, after 15 minutes I understood I wasn't going to... | 3 |
Came to this expecting to be blown away, but what a let down. Just a series of idiotic fight scenes, ridiculous characters and plot less. Note to self to ignore reviewers in the future. Beauty, and appreciation of film, is in the eye of the beholder and this was plain ugly.
Make your own judgements of course but my re... | 2 |
Oh man what an amazing movie this was! Sam Raimi really did an amazing job with this one. The storyline, direction, screenplay everything was so good in this movie.
To start elaborate first let's talk about the villain of Dr. Otto Octavius which is being portrayed by Alfred Molina and he did really good job in acting ... | 7 |
