This movie in a nutshell with an example: Did you know that you can travel to Greece with a firearm hanging from your balls and walk freely without being in police custody? Oh, "it's a just movie" you say, such details are not important in a "solve-a-mystery movie", only the things that the screenwriter was intelligent... | 5 |
First of all, let me say that the featured comment on this movie cracks me up. "A movie with a difference - It's realistic"? Ha. This movie is hardly realistic. It totally misrepresents the nature of Nash's delusions, and it criminally oversimplifies how game theory works. For example, schizophrenics never experience v... | 1 |
The Crazies might be the first of this type of horror film, were the people don't attack other people like a slasher film , but they kill themselves. I ask why has this type of horror film become more popular in the recent years, like 'Suicide Club" 2001, the Happening (2008) ? are they promoting mass Suicides ? Maybe ... | 6 |
As other people have written "The Lighthouse" isn't your standard film and that's intentional. It's more of a situational mood piece that's taking you to a specific place and time so that you can get inside the head of the characters.
Unfortunately the characters appear to be insane. Or maybe they're not. It's impossi... | 5 |
I waste of time. Dicaprio played his role very well and so did Brad Pitt. there were some funny scenes in it but all in all it is way too long and not much happens in all the time. I loved the dog scenes though, for that I am glad that I eventually watched it but otherwise it is not worth it. The 'story' is told in alm... | 3 |
I saw this at the Sydney premiere and was highly impressed, Yates has done a terrific job here after the let downs of the last two films.
Now I've just read some reviews and there are many complaints about it being too long, action-less and boring. I must protest. One of the brilliant things about splitting the story ... | 8 |
This film revives the good film making of thriller and spy movies.
It modernize the clasical spy movies. Jennifer Lawrence has become the best actress in decades, and she is more beautifull than ever.
I feel sorry for those who can´t aprriciate the quality and inteligence of the film, and worst for the ones that make... | 10 |
The more I think about this film, the more downright evil it appears to be.
Any young girl who sees this is going to be traumatized by it and just as likely turned into a manhater for the depiction of male manipulation and rape. It's traumatic even for adults and the sexual violence/sadism should have earned it an X.

So, yes I am on the side of WandaVision (WV) being a brilliant TV series. For it has everything I always thought marvel films needed. WV starts off with 3 episodes that many have critiqued for being too slow and lacking a plot, something that I can definitely understand. But personally the mystery and confusion paired ... | 9 |
After watching the trailer, I was curious what it is actually about. After watching each and every episode, it becomes more intriguing, and you won't be able to wait for the next episode. | 10 |
After a disastrous Delhi-6 four years ago, director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra has a winner at his hand. Direction is perfect, and similar to Rang De Basanti, Rakeysh uses a non-linear narrative to unfold the story beautifully written by Prasoon Joshi. However, though the film starts off great and the first half is perfec... | 8 |
This is a good movie. It is like a mix of a romantic comedy and Inception. Jim Carrey use to be a bit to childish in my opinion but this along with The Truman show is very grown-up. I wish a method like this to forget things will come in the future. Would be so extremely helpful for people who have been through somethi... | 7 |
I liked it, I hated it. I was intrigued, I was bored. Daniel Craig's accent made it a comedy. The vials and labels got switched around so much I lost the plot. The plot twists were so contrived the film lost credibility. I hate Jamie Lee Curtis AND her pal Sigourney Weaver - maybe ball-busting women scare me, or maybe ... | 5 |
Characters and story-lines were left undeveloped. There were more subplots going nowhere than Irishmen changing light bulbs! I got the black humour, and even the pathetic attempt to bring every minority group known to man into some sort of relevance to the plot to fulfil some vague political statement, but I just did n... | 2 |
House of the dragon has hours where I am barely hanging on and yet other hours where I'm gripping the TV. Be inconsistency of this painfully slow over the orchestrated plot as well worth the slow burn. Moments of brilliance sometimes last seconds but have such a brilliant impact that they make you feel it in your bones... | 8 |
Much hype about what??, its just an average flick, far behind much less hyped but better made flicks like Main Aur Meri Biwi, Khosla ka Ghosla.
The performance were OK I would say Abhishek was good but nothing great about it, Mithun after a long time got a good role fitting for his enormously mostly wasted talent, Ash... | 6 |
Great anime, refreshing different, absolutely unique. Never saw something like this. Because of its simplicity outstanding.
Definitely waiting for season 2 | 9 |
Lame joke, but I can't think of a good summary. Pirates of the Caribbean is a pretty decent summer blockbuster that received much acclaim thanks to massive marketing. It's not terribly original, it's not terribly funny(lots of the lines meant to be funny really doesn't work very well) and in the end, it's not terribly ... | 5 |
Positives:
Directing
The cast
Musical score
Action scenes
Story
Tone and pacing
Negatives:
Not much | 9 |
Oh my, what a dog. Waited for its release with such enthusiasm, after enjoying the witty, happy innocence of the original. From the opening sequence, it was clear this was a film delivered by a committee... a confusing collision of out of control action and noise... much like a multi-car pile-up on the world's busiest ... | 2 |
There's an interesting story in here that would have been much better served as either a straight drama or comedy. Perhaps, it could have even still been a musical, so long as the real-life events were portrayed honestly and the characters were given some actual development, instead of the glorified and one-note repres... | 4 |
i cannot believe the stellar reviews for this film. what a waste of talent. Kenneth branagh,mark rylance,and tom hardy...omg. no script,no characters to relate to...i needed an ativan during my viewing . that's as real a physical emotion although i did do a lot of flinching in my seat from the bullets and bombs. | 2 |
Boring, doesn't leave you wanting to see more, just a total waste of time... I do not recommend it at all and I would hope that they could improve the characters that are so mediocre. | 1 |
If this is critically acclaimed and highly rated, how bad must a flick be to get a low rating?
To be fair: Black Panther is not exactly a bad movie - it simply isn't a good one either. It's just formulaic, by-the-numbers, plotless, shallow superhero-mainstream featuring an all black cast sporting a white sidekick, mak... | 3 |
The Apatow production group have made many great comedies '40 Year Old Virgin', 'Knocked Up', 'Superbad' but none is as underrated as this. This is the funniest of all there movies.
I was laughing out loud every couple of minutes and even sometimes it was hard to breath it was so funny. I loved this more then there ot... | 9 |
What a wasted opportunity.
This has mostly nothing to do with either the Addams family tv series or movies.
Characters are terrible and don't look or act like you'd expect them to, story is bland af.
Overall, poor acting, bad miscasts (especially gomez and morticia), bad plot and dialogs.
What were they thinking?? ... | 3 |
How on earth did the lead men agree to do this movie ? Besides Pitt's likable character the movie is a huge let down. It's like a in form Roger Federer losing 0-6 0-6 0-6 in the first round of Wimbledon. Margot's character has no relevance to the plot (if QT thinks that's a plot). Except for some comedy scenes, this is... | 4 |
I couldn't even bare to watch a full hour of the movie that is riddled with clichés that are so typical with fight movies. A street kid, orphan or someone else who had a rough childhood rises up to be a champion or a star or something else, only to gain millions of dollars, having everyone leech his money and end up lo... | 4 |
Season 2 wasn't that good but season 1was incredible 😀👍 every seinen fan should watch this anime. | 9 |
There is a lot of talk on the internet about the "curse" of game adaptations for cinema or television, however, it has been broken with releases like Sonic, Arcane or Cuphead. As live action, we still didn't have productions that good until The Last of Us came out. This, without a doubt, is the best live action based o... | 8 |
'Dunkirk' is a great film. And it's not. I really enjoyed a lot of it. And yet I can't see me ever watching it again. It's a two-hour account of one of the most famous 'retreats' in modern warfare (or, if I'm being cynical... a longer version of the opening credits to 'Dad's Army' - boom, boom!) where British and Frenc... | 7 |
......shadows of grey ,freed or whatever it is name worse than all tarantino s story s together...it s nothing personal as they says in the movies.Just .as usually when i see rating ,,,,cant help myself.Anyway i am put on because of r.mcadams of course.Forest whitaker is past tense long a time ago-If Fuqua got a movie(... | 2 |
I saw it for the first time and had a best quality time. | 10 |
Overall a brilliantly written, acted and directed series. It's a huge shame on Marvel Studios for refusing to acknowledge it exists and (possibly) shafting it off into the multiverse instead of keeping it in the main MCU. | 10 |
I saw people comparing this to Game of Thrones and I got a bit excited and thought we might have something here. However the trailer didnt really spark me THAT much but I of course was still going to watch. It wasn't bad but the storylines jumbling around does get a bit confusing and unnecessary maybe. Also sometimes t... | 7 |
I adore going to the movies! But this was one of the films that really made me want to get out of the theater. Boring, inaccurate, with no meaning AND ABOVE ALL propagandistic!
There is a lack of character evolvement and the director shoots like she is in duty, heired from USA propaganda department. NO YOU Shouldn't b... | 2 |
What I liked about it was that the visual effects were astonishing - they really made it feel like it was real. Some of the actors were also a great pick for their characters (like Pedro Pascal, Anna Torv and Merle Dandridge) What I personally didn't quite like about this movie was that it felt too rushed. In the game ... | 7 |
This show is great....kind of a twilight spinoff but with less glitter on people, and way better. But after the episode ends you are left with a strong feeling to hold someone, and believe me that hurts when you are single. | 9 |
From its beginning there has never been a television as consistently action packed as 24. Season 5 may very well be the most entertaining season of television ever produced.
Sure, there are sequences, that upon reflection, may lack credibility, but when you are caught up in the story, as you will be, you won't even no... | 10 |
What a movie it was. What suspense, what thrill. I was not watching south Indian movies as I don't know the language but I watched the Hindi dubbed, it was too good.
Lead actor was good and the criminal, he has done his role too good. That twist was very unexpected at the end.
9/10 | 9 |
In the intriguing mini-series "Devs," the storyline captivates viewers with its compelling narrative. However, the overall viewing experience is hindered by the perceived shortcomings of the lead actress.
While the plot holds promise and engages audiences with its complexity, the portrayal by the lead actress falls sh... | 6 |
Sci-fi\fantasy entertainment, when done well, holds up a mirror to the world. The Boys is not a superhero show, it is 'the office' or 'the thick of it' but with superheroes. The Boys does this parody better than any current TV show and does it without being preachy or one-sided.
I suspect that many of those people who... | 9 |
There is a phenomenon in music broadcasting called "The Loudness War" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war): In order to attract maximum attention, music is compressed to constantly play at maximum volume. Alas, this reduces the dynamic range, leading to music that sounds flat as it lacks any variation. This is e... | 5 |
Booooring movie and want my two hours and 50 minutes back . Lame and unfunny so much potential to be a decent flick, but Mr. Boringtino sucks. I hope this will be his last movie. | 2 |
First of All, I am a huge fan of the first Ironman--The FIRST Ironman had a great plot, excellent acting(especially the guy who gives his life to save Tony in the cave) and great special effects.
But this film opens to an interminably boring scene of Tony making a big speech, and then goes downhill from there. The big... | 3 |
I loved this series, I thought they really managed to capture the events and craziness surrounding Theranos. How one founder and a few of her close allies managed to dupe the biggest investors in Silicon Valley and the government was truly captured here.
The series paid attention to the little things like the Yoda man... | 8 |
It was really, really just okay. If you saw the review, you saw the movie. Don't see this in the theater, but wait instead for it to come out on elsewhere.I'd waste more of my time writing about this, but I already wasted a portion of my life watching this flick. Ben was only so so in his acting. Really, it wasn't an e... | 7 |
I remember when i saw first episode of wandavision YEP , i'd shocked yet the show wanted me to watch another episode ! And episode after a episode it got better and better ! I know that there's much of a difference between this kind of sups in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier ! And that kind of sups in wandavision :) ... | 4 |
The premise of a young up and coming man with ambition making it in the fuel industry with his beautiful wife and two (2) children after just moving into their dream home and in a tony neighborhood is turned upside down rather quickly in the cut throat business he has chosen.
I always enjoy the retro scenery of the pa... | 4 |
As the strange name "Karthik calling Karthik" forces you to think about movie, ditto with the well maintained suspense. It forces you or better says engages you for 2.5 hrs that most other bollywood movies never accomplished even for few mins. It's nice to see lot of bollywood movies coming up with tight script and eng... | 7 |
Didn't know it was gonna be a comedy, some parts for me felt like it was a game. Then the main thing that ruined it for me was the music, I seriously thought Shrek or Snow White was gonna come out. The whole family especially the kids where laughing so hard, if you watched Shrek 3 you'll understand. | 3 |
It has been five years since the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows part 2 and if I am being honest I did not really like the last 3-4 Harry Potter movies, despite being a huge fan of the books and earlier movies. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is the first spin off movie in the Harry Potter unive... | 7 |
10 out of 10 for Visual Effects but 3 out of 10 for everything else.
8.9? Seriously? Is this movie really THAT good? I saw Avatar yesterday in Cannes and I was lucky to have free tickets or I would have felt robbed after wards.
Don't get me wrong. The visual effects are really well done, impressive and beautiful. Eve... | 3 |
Loved season 1. Can't recall much about season 2, it was more of the same. Was disappointed with season 3.
Loathing season 4.
Everything which was good about the start of the story is gone. The charming characters, the mystery, even the 80s nostalgia.
Instead, we get splash-in-your-face gore, cringe-inducing dialogu... | 6 |
This is either a terrible story well told or a great story badly done. As it comes from Heinlein, I tend to the latter | 4 |
High-school is no easy experience for kids, encourage them to cry out for help, to seek it, to ask for it without being judged. 13 RY encourages them through depressive events to do just that, just areful never to have them watch it alone. I just wonder why would they hire American actors to play British students. I am... | 7 |
Never heard of this film till I saw it on social media but what am amazing film, never lost my interest. Great acting, great plot and really clever horror without stupid jump scares. Just finished it and I will happily sit and watch it again with my wife, the build up premise is clever and the story makes great sense a... | 9 |
Are all these reviews from people on Sky payroll?? Or have the genuine reviews been deleted? . | 7 |
Nice to see Steve Martin and Martin Short back together again, and with Selena Gomez, to boot!
I've been around for over fifty years, so Martin and Short's older stuff is right in my wheelhouse.
As to the show, it is a slow burn, but very enjoyable. There is no knee-slapping, laugh out loud comedy here, so don't go i... | 7 |
Disenchanted with amazon's delivery choice. Putting that aside, this season is a slow burn and less exciting for me. | 1 |
We need a season 4 right now. If Netflix doesn't give it to us I'm gunna be really pissed. It is the best show like it to ever be made. The best crime/mystery show ever made. It have the best acting, mystery and plot of any shows. Must be watched by all people. It is criminal that it was canceled after only 3 seasons. | 10 |
All this hype only to watch the same action scenes that we've already seen in previous films. So many great actors repeating the same lines. This was a golden opportunity to show witty dialogues and epic scenes but the makers have failed miserably. So disappointed! | 2 |
If you have seen any horror movie of the past decade, you've already seen this movie. Power goes out. Flashlights stop working. Something is creeping around in the background. Awkward, forced humor. Enormously loud sound. You jump. Repeat this a few times. The End. Entertaining, but nothing new. These universes need to... | 5 |
This movie is so bad that we had to leave the cinema before it finished. It is merely a shallow attempt to depict the "moment" and nothing else.
Content wise it offers no insight into the historic context, nothing. There's no dialogue, no story line whatsoever. If the intention of whoever made this movie is just to fo... | 1 |
Me and my other half made it an hour through the film and spent the second half hour deciding whether we should turn it off! The only reason it has any stars is for DiCaprio's performance alone. I truly think this film has been made for teenage boys to touch themselves. In the hour we watched there was no character dev... | 3 |
Oh, how predictable.... Don't waste your time watching this if you have an iq of average or more. I just sat the whole movie nodding yes yes yes and check on that and that as well. I really don't understand the high rating of this movie, a total waste of time and a huge disappointment. Please do yourself a favour and w... | 5 |
Based on the book by the same name penned by Solomon Northup whose biographical date is important to note: Born a free man in New York, Northup was drugged and kidnapped in Washington, D.C. in 1841 and sold into slavery there. He was soon taken with other slaves by ship to New Orleans and sold into further slavery. He ... | 7 |
So to get hyped for this new show, I started rewatching the original GoT. I probably shouldn't have because all it makes me do is realize how much better the original started off. I will keep watching, and I hope it finds it's identity eventually but right now it's just a good show, not great.
Story moves too fast, th... | 7 |
Have to agree with others who've been surprised this garbage has got such a high score on IMDb, it's not clever, well written, nor are the special effects great (when the ships 'grab' onto each other it's like watching the grabbing machines at a funfair)
It's just a load of nonsense, I'm all for weird sci-fi movies th... | 2 |
Action Packed but Completely missed the Environment of Dhaka
The premise of the movie was supposed to set in Dhaka, a city of 10+ million people in Bangladesh. Unfortunately, they completely missed mark making the set in Dhaka.
To start with, the accent of the locals are wrong, they are speaking in an accent that's c... | 5 |
The watcher said in the end that watching all these universes is my whole life and I started to imagine at the same time that may be watching my life is all i have and then crossing them to all universes and then if we imagined we lost what we wanted or who we wanted....the story we have is actually what left in our li... | 9 |
I am a big fan of the games but I did not like Season 1. Besides Henry Caville nailing Geralt from the games (you can tell he played them), the acting felt over done in a lot of areas and having events happen out of chronological order made it even more frustrating to follow. It was a chaotic mess.
That being said, I ... | 6 |
Like many other people (and you if you are reading this), I read a lot about Spiderman 2 before I went to see it. I had heard so much hype about how it was the best comic movie and was even better than the first Spiderman (which I thoroughly enjoyed). Thankfully, there were some calming notes too about not expecting to... | 10 |
First off, LOL at all the people already comparing this to Game of Thrones. We literally got through the first two episodes and people are saying that it doesn't live up to GoT. It takes time to establish a story line and introduce characters. For everyone saying that the characters lack depth, GIVE IT TIME! This show ... | 8 |
Downey Jr. is a delight to look at. He eats up the screen. He gives the character all sorts of mannerisms and nuances which really bring Holmes to life like never before. The chemistry and interplay between him and Jude Law is hilarious. | 6 |
Finished season 1: It got some classic boring tropes of a sitcom. And not all storylines are interesting. But, the characters are well devolped, and some jokes actually land. So all in all, some really solid writing on this show.
7/10: ok pog. | 7 |
Well-made movie all around. christian bale is amazing. damon impressed me as well. i don't have any issues with it. just not a fan of based-on-true-story bio-pics (1 viewing, 2/14/2020) | 6 |
Even great actors can't save this storyless plotless meandering piece of self-indulgent nostalgia. It looks like they had a great time making it and to heck wirh the audience. I love the old-time movie feel of most of QTs films, but come on, you need a plot. You need to tell a story. As QT famously said a movie should ... | 3 |
It was watchable. Not great, but ok. The first movie was better and the difference boils down to the characters. The characters in the first movie were better than the ones in the sequel. Daniel Craig's version of Sherlock Blanc was good and I liked Edward Norton's Miles Zuckerberg and Janelle Monae's Andi Brand. The r... | 3 |
When Tim Burton first did Batman the movie (1989) you didn't expect a sudden change to some other actor after Batman Returns (1992). While Michael Keaton was glad to not get stuck in a type cast mode as the dark knight, it didn't help those who followed Tim Burton's Batman movie from the start, to end up shifting over ... | 5 |
Let's be honest, this would have ended well if it had been presented as a miniseries. The first season had a beginning and an end and the story was good as it was presented to us. Everything else that came after turned to rubbish, nothing more to say. Thanks Netflix :) | 3 |
I took in all three of the Dark Knight Trilogy movies with a group of friends, during that time in your life when you really don't appreciate how great things are!
All three films were untouchable as far as a twenty something Movie fanatic could see.
However as the years have gone by, all I have thought about at nigh... | 5 |
When Marvel and Disney announced their new venture into streaming, high expectations arose and the first show WandaVision has just finished its 9 episode run and here is my review for the show. The premise of the show sees Wanda Maximoff and Vision living in a sitcom like world when they realise all may not be what it ... | 9 |
Come on i didn't watch 12 years of amazing fights, dialogues , good villains, and amazing twists to see this crap, no i don t read comic books i am just a humble fan who speak for himself.
I know what they trying to do with all the mystery and the bad comedy with the fake laughs on top, being wanda she created a loop ... | 8 |
The funny part is I hardly need to write more than that title. They tried too hard with this one, and like one of the very few critics who was right said, " it lacked finesse in its story-telling, " big time. They tried to make it into this deep moving story about the universe but it falls very very flat on every level... | 3 |
So this movie was trying to be. Movie that movie wasnt. I think it was better than whiplash but maybe not as good as blade runner 2049 loose plot and story makes the pacing poor ish cinematography probably will be there when fabelman 2 comes out but while waiting for that i should probably watch the wolf of Wall Street... | 1 |
Upon first viewing I was left deflated. Hoping for more and getting a lot less. As with all Marvel films, it's worth rewatching to see what I maybe missed with my expectation glasses on.
Having Woody Harrelson playing a villian set my expectations mighty high. What with his unique, lovable bad guys (as in his murderou... | 7 |
Storyline is all over the place. The show has so much h potential, Henry cavil does a great job but it has 0 flow. The fights and creatures are cool but 80% of the dialogue is hard to sit through. | 5 |
Very entertaining series about superheroes, where superheroes have a life, a character, dramas and traumas... But what in my opinion raises it above the already good series is the use of music in the movie. Remarkable, impressive, needs to recognized with an award. It's been years (pulp fiction?) since I saw such a per... | 9 |
A screenwriter who promises to show Geralt's story from a new, feminine side. Pan Sapkowski, who does not want to participate in production, because he needs nothing but money. Casting, in which one controversial choice of the actor drove another person who did not fit into the image less.
Disgusting trailers, where H... | 4 |
So I am going to sound extremely knowledgeable here so that my review seems interesting AND I reach the minimum amount of words needed to post my review :P
OK, that's the best I could do. meh!
Well, not that big a fan of show's seeming to outdated, started off with minimum expectations, and bammmmm, there I was, tota... | 9 |
It was a great experience. Unfortunately hate won over love in the ratings. Mostly because it is not for kids. Excellent performance all over the board. All the characters are greatly built. We can feel the attachment. The story is finely paced. I loved the friendship. Excellent choreography,music and art. Truth be tol... | 10 |
The feeling I have right now is as if I thought I was purchasing a limited edition box of Lucky Charms filled with nothing but marshmallows, no fillers, but instead it turns out the box is filled with god damn corn flakes.
Tarantino, DiCaprio, Pitt, Robbie... has to be a top notch film, right? WRONG. So, so wrong. The... | 2 |
I'll admit that some parts were cute. However, the overall subject of the movie was way too deep for a Barbie movie. I don't get why they have to stick society issues that are way too deep for kids in a movie about a doll. And don't get me started about the ending! What the heck was that about? And why did they have to... | 2 |
This is basically Coen brothers classic breakthrough film. And the story is superbly put together and crafted so well. To the point it makes it one of the top crime films that is a must watch. It's a serious crime story shown in a subtle and yet engaging manner, with slight awkward humor in it. But still stays consiste... | 8 |
Had to turn off after 20 minutes, perhaps it got better. Christian Bales accent was joke. I wondered why they didn't just get an English actor to play his character until I found out he is?? Pathetic. | 1 |
My kind of story. Great characters with perfect casting. I cannot wait for the second season. I have read that the show was renewed for 2nd & 3rd seasons. The books are a trilogy so I'm certain there will be closures on the many questions I have. | 10 |
I suppose that every era has its own issues to promote via TV shows. Once it was Sexism, cigarettes, rock band life style. These days it's feminism (sometimes to a radical extent), racism (up to a reverse degree) and as this show that touches the subject of teenage psychology and the destructive consequences.
I'm a bi... | 1 |
First couple of episodes were intriguing, but thereafter tailed off badly. Acting, particularly Mendelsohn, Bateman, Considine, and Nicholson was very good, but the story was very drawn out and slow moving, and the supposedly scary stuff was a bit corny. The cast deserved better material. | 2 |
Need I say more, had to stop after an hour of pointless drivel. One of the most boring films I have ever attempted to watch, usually no matter how bad I stick with it. However, this was so bad. | 2 |
