Everyone was so sure that Momoa would nail it as Lobo. Well, in my world, he didn't. He felt sluggish when moving and... uninteresting. His bicycle looked slow and ... stupid. The whole movie works around Supergirl not able to use her powers for some time, get whopped and then charge up and beat'em up. Two full circles! Plus the initial one. That was just... boring. I don't really get what was the point of this movie, which could've been 1-2 scenes in another Superman movie. It's not available to watch/stream so... if you have some popcorn and tweets to catch-up while taking peeks at the TV, then go for it.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

Whilst it is an absurd-idea movie (because Norton-Cruz wouldn’t invite Rogen to anything), it has it’s moments. Deep ones. Ones which sit with folks with some mileage. And on the other side it plainly shows that Rogen never was and never will be an actor. His persona is the same in every picture, how it feels only depends on how well he is suited for the particular movie. The same can be said, but with a bit more of tenderness, for Cruz. But damn me. It’s good to see Ed Norton back. Brilliant. Wilde? On the same page.

Lion and the witch, and the audacity of this… Melania. Awful. Goddamn awful.I kept asking myself why anybody would do that, but then remembered it’s the Trumps.

Awful CGI which also looks low budget and previous millennium, plot and characters so simple, predictable and full I started doing something else mid-movie. Writers just didn’t mind all those plot holes they created. Felt like Momoa had fun, the rest tried to be serious. Momoa was in the right. Awful.

The beggining was a little uneasy for me, but after that came just pure joy of watching something different. In terms of acting - marvelous (Penn's and Leo's meeting in the store lasted like 10 seconds and yet you felt that vastly different emotions in both of them). If you ever thought if somebody could go through a movie in a bathrobe, then the answer is yes and it's a marvelous creation. Movie delivers some great lines and scenes (yeah I enjoyed the rooftop one, too). Sean Penn is electric in a role so different from his own persona, I reckon he might've enjoyed the whole thing the most. Certainly one of more novel and original movies of 2025. Do recommend.

The premise was there, the execution of the first act too. And later everything goes to hell. You see the same event three times, but nothing of significance is added and then there is no ending.Obviously somebody thought that would be a good cliffhanger. It isn’t. Wasted potential, not worth the time.

This movie has some nice shots, good cast which shows chemistry, but it just doesn't pack a punch. The whole thing feels like just a fight about a tweet between two rich/powerful people, rather than an impending distaster. It's fine, it's popcorn-y, but lacks gravitas.

Some stunning visuals, but the story lacks depth. Yes, there are some emotional moments, but they would hold everywhere due to the performances itself, yet when you see the final scene of the movie you get a "and that's it? that solves nothing on the bigger scale". The whole point of the conflict and reason for further escalation gets like two sentences. Should've gotten more. Lots of ideas just slapped during the movie to the viewer, without going further. In the end this movie is less than it could've been. I imagine this could potentially get much better if it had something of a Snyder-cut. But at this moment is just a flashy, shallow and somewhat chaotic experience.

Poor acting and dialogues, nothing enthralling at all. A completely dull movie. Actors look like they are in pain for the most time and Grillo should understand that what he can do are action flicks. Nothing more.

The worst part of the whole movie is that banter between Lawrence and Smith just doesn't work. It's not funny, it's forced. It's mostly gross. Especially what Lawrence does in this movie. Smith acts like this is a favour to his friend so he tries to endure. In terms of story and characters this movie feels like a Steven Seagal movie from the nineties. It's full of cliche's, it's completely predictable (it's a replay of everything we've already seen), the whole premise is soooo naive and poorly written (Can you log into my Ring?Yeah, we have VPN and a router. - Jeeeeezaaaas!!). The whole main plot is just so goddamn idiotic, that it just hurts. Cinematography is inconsistent - for a while this wants to be a music clip, then a game, then an action movie. A few shots are interesting, but that's just too little. I'd let this franchise go to rest.

Walken is a complete mistake, yet I love the guy. Zendaya - I don't have much love for her as an actress, but I think she delivers here. Small good aspects here and there. Harkonenns - from A to Z poorly written, performed adequatley - Austin Butler perfectly delivers a sociopath and deviant. Yet - the original character was much more. In general - a great visual experience which shallows the books and characters. Lots of stuff missing. Glad that I didn't spend a penny on both installations in the cinema and watched it as a part of my subscription. Visually nice, generally just a movie. Nothing more.

Snyder's take on Star Wars meets The Maginificent 7 is a dull and shallow experience. Characters lack depth, dialogues are mediocre, the execution of fights is poor, just like the acting and the overall experience is a big 'meh'. It's just bad. On all levels. Also - it 's completely predictable (well it's M7, so we know what we will get, but still - some good could be delivered), but still we get nothing. The fun part is...there's gonna be a third movie, which means Netflix is going balls-deep into this ****. I am a hardcore fan of both SW and M7 (watched the second iteration like a dozen times in my youth) and this thing insults both the original trilogy and the american remake of M7. Save your breath.

While the first movie did at least try to build up the world around the division between "normals" and "powered", here we get a really shallow, naive and cliche-packed movie about... well nothing. That division is obviously present, but the majority of characters present on the screen are either powered or mechanical. So you don't feel the other side, at all. Plus it's a really really simple plot, completely guessable from A to Z. The first movie was a pleasant surprise. This one is a boring sequel, that doesn't deliver at any layer possible. Nor the effects, nor story, nor... anything.

Mostly like „Magnificent Seven” in space, Rebel Moon fails to deliver in any way. While having a decent+ cast, characters are shallow and for heavens sake -the dialogues were so corny that I needed to fast forward the movie to get out of the cringe. Tons of slo-mo makes this movie feel outdated, at moments the CGi looks simply bad, the plot - as mentioned before - is a classic story but executed with infancy. I feel like I’ve wasted time. Do not recommend.

If you needed a movie that would seal the MCU coffin, this is it. It's just a mess , both in the performances and the story. If you enforce something on the viewer, rather than delivering a quality that makes him/her think you have a lost cause at your hands. And that's what The Marvels is. Avoid at all costs.

I found myself dazzled at least a couple of times with the dialogue. It feels like it’s been written by a 9-y.o. The CGI, as usual, keeps your finger on the rewind button to understand after the 34th time what happened. And then you have those shots from down below. Bay should understand by now that this works in short music clips, not movies. Wahlberg is pure comedy, Hopkins should erase this from his memory, which he probably has due to his age and absolutely all of the cast should follow. This is as shallow as it gets. It’s dumb, it’s incoherent… did mention dumb? I was raised on the 1986 Transformers movie and this is an abomination.

My grade comes from just one scene, when Wanda faces-off an another universe Avengers. I won't go into details, but it's just so sensible of what those heroes could do when facing a superior foe. I give a nod to Marvel for doing that, because it's a way to laugh at themselves. The major flaw is the main antagonist's agenda, which could've been fixed with simple measures and that's that. Besides this, it's an entertaning entry, WAAAAAAY better than the Eternals.

I was dissapointed when it ended. It didn't flesh out the most important part - Freddie's struggle with the disease. Instead it focused on the early parts of Queen and his "wild" life in terms of his new-found sexuality. I would appreciate this much more if it focused on the more important bits of his late life. As I am opposite of doing 2-part movies, this would server better as an entree for the second movie, which would battle Freddie's health decline and death. And his relationship with his partner, who stood with him till the end was way too short. Rami was great, but that doesn't make a great movie.

The problem with the movie is that it's obvious about everything that's going to happen, it's a cliche after a cliche. The character development just isn't there, you don't feel them. Plain and simple. While it's not the worst one out there, it just doesn't offer anything on it's own.

Simply put: a poorly executed dumb script with actors just don’t giving **** for anything else then their paycheck. Terrible dialogue, tons of inconsistencies… ehh I could go on and on. The simple truth is: this is something you should avoid, because it’s neither stunning, smart or funny. It’s what an action movie shouldn’t be

Movie feels like it's been made 10 or 15 years ago straight to DVD, before Reynolds became famous and now the creators want to cash in. Michael Bay is great with short forms - like those he originated from - music videoclips. He lacks the ability to tell stories, just shoves CGI and other visuals into your face. The story is ... well it's almost not there. It's just a bunch of scenes with the same people in them together. Think 5 seconds about a spy/assasin movie, then substract Mission Impossible quality from it and you'll have "6 Underground". Reynolds' charm keeps this group of scenes together in some way, but the rest... you feel no connection to any of them or the story. Lost 2 hrs of saturday evening. Don't recommend.

This film is flawed because it succeeds in giving virtually everybody their respected onscreen time. The pace is high from start to end, but that's about it. Story-wise there is almost nothing. Just different packs of heroes doing their heroic stuff. Some fail (Iron Man/Dr. Strange), some almost scream for a spin-off (Thor/Guardians). Brolin as Thanos steals the movie. The CGI and smart framing make him look fantastic. I don't dig his motivation (prophet/ecologist/saviour). I'd much rather see the comic book thing - courting Death. This would make a lot more sense. Also - I see this as a missed ball. Making Death his motivation, Marvel would open the MCU to another level of entities - maybe for Phase 4 or 5? Yet I find it funny, that Thanos suddenly accomplished what he wished for in a matter of days, without even breaking a sweat. That was made too easy, despite occasional sacrifices on his side. Yeah. He does that in the movie. Lots of character are underused (Gamorra, Loki and Banner), some are somewhat taken back in their development (Quill acts like Guardians vol 2 never happened; hell - the whole movie almost acts like it. The movie delivers in terms of simple fun. The pace gets you through the 2,5hr long piece without the feeling of being bored. The laughs are in, the tears too. It's just as if it was just a bit too rushed on some points. Yet compared to Last Jedi, this should get an Oscar. Maybe my score will change with Avengers 4, as some decisions (I am looking especially at you Dr. Strange) might become more sensible. Go, see it for yourself. I was a bit dissapointed, but I will watch it again, when it comes out on BR.

This is coming from an avid Star Wars fan. I didn't expect a brilliant movie, I expected them to deepen the plot and the characters introduced in Force Awakens. All of them had potential. Yet it was all turned in favor of doing a Marvel movie in the Star Wars universe. A good laugh here and there is okay, but this movie puts too much emphasis on bringing up laughs. I loved some of the lines from Luke. The were the sound of the fans - the past Jedis did lots of things wrong and that's what finally broke him. Yet he was out of character at least two or three times. Poe was a puppy held in a cage. Lots of noise and movement, but in the end - none of effect. Finn could be completely cut out of the movie and it wouldn't change a thing. Leia had her scenes and one in particular should've been her last. That would be so much more both for her and Kylo. Yet they went with Superman style. Foolish. Hux is a joke in this movie and I reckon that's on purpose. While this one was not able to deliver the same thing that "Empire strikes back" did, it copied some of it, while also borrowing from "Return of the Jedi", yet lacking it's depth. Kylo Ren is not and will never be the next Vader. Adam Driver tries hard, but all that is being written for his character makes it impossible. Snoke was put to waste in the movie. The FO and Resistance chase was absurd, and I mean absurd while looking at all SW movies and the final fight was just so plain and simple, it irritated me. I feel a bit broken by this movie, as I see where Disney wants to go with it. "Kill the past", as Kylo states it, is Disney's plan. Cut the ties with the previous installments. That is "a" strategy. I find it a broken one, as it could've built a new cult based on the old movies, sparkled with a fresh look, yet it killed both. To sum up, two quotes: - Mark Hamill on his role in TLD: "When I read 8, I told Rian [Johnson, the writer-director], 'I fundamentally disagree with virtually everything you've decided about my character'," Hamill said during an ABC interview. - "This is not going to go the way you think." I concur. Sadly.

Some of the jokes will stick with you for ages, some of the acting will make you raise your eyebrow, but in overall it is a pleasant and not demanding entertainment. The story covers the adventures of Robin of Loxley, who after returning from the crusade in Jerusalem, finds his family home taken away by the Prince John and his Sheriff on Nottingham because of unpaid taxes, which are unfair to the people. From here he embarks on a journey to throw the wrongful ruler from his throne with help of his new companions, falls in love and uses Maverick arrows, when needed. This movie features a wide cast of colorful characters, which you will still remember after a while, some good lines, some cheesy ones, but what is the most important - it featuers plain and simple fun. It's definetly worth watching at least once, if you're into Mel Brooks/slapstick comedy.

Focus is a light summer movie that doesn't take itself too serious. But the same can be said about the actors that are in it. It feel like a movie that was strongly inspired by Ocean's Trilogy, but storywise rushed. A few moments are worth the attention and you probably won't regret watching it, but I seriously doubt that you'd recommend it or watch again.

"Age of Ultron" is a big overstatement. Ultron comes and goes in this movie and with each screen appearance you understand the character less and less. A bit frightening in his screen debut, he goes through daddy issues to end up patheticaly. Despite Spader's voice, Ultron has been handled in this movie poorly. As all (or almost all) of the characters to be fair. This movie feels like Iron Man 3.5 with too much focus around Stark, Whedon's pat on the back to Renner - "sorry for the first movie, in this one you'll be important. Don't care whether is makes sense", romance between Banner and Romanov is... well, as many have stated before me - dull and plain stupid. But! The movie is not bad - the effects are great, some of the fights are handled great and a few lines are worth mentioning. As a standalone it can defend itself. As a sequel it fails miserably. For the Marvel Cinematic Universe Avengers: Age of Ultron could not exist. It wouldn't change much. Maybe it would be fot the best...

Inspired by it's score I gave it a spin. And honestly - I want my time back. This movie just doesn't add up in any way.. For some time it tries to be serious and just when you start to get the feeling that there will be a moral at the end or just a bit of sense in it.. the blue thing pops up. And it goes completely bananas.Unfortunately, not in a good way. It's acted rather poorly, the script doesn't make any sense and the whole thing looks like it was written in the same way the whole thing acts out - completely drunk. If you want a good Pegg move - go see Paul.

Marvel's The Avengers is a fun movie. It's a +2hrs ride full of capes, suits and explosions. Just the type of entertainment you expect for the summer. It's not a deep movie, it's rather the opposite. The focus was on the Avengers coming together. While it was cliche usually, I enjoyed it. I knew what to expect, yet I watched it with pleasure. I think that's the point of such movies. You go to the cinema not expecting a masterpiece, but a good funride. We're presented with the obvious mid-movie crisis between the heroes and then the big fight with all of them fighting together. Cliche, but it's still nice to see Hulk alongside Iron Man :) Whedon and his cast deliver. Most of it, at least. The movie is stolen by Ruffalo's Hulk. Peroid. He gets the funniest moments, with Thor coming in second. Suprisingly - Tony Stark (Downey Jr.) is only trying to be funny. I didn't laugh at any of his jokes and sometimes even felt a bit irritated. Hiddleston's Loki is believeable, while Evans is a complete and utter mistake. I just can't bring myself to liking this version of Captain America. Evans looks and acts in this movie like a dumbed-down 25 y.o. with muscles bigger than Thor's. Not my pair of shoes. Renner steals the dumbest scenes in the movie with his funny faces and acting seriously, while doing stupid things. The felt... unnecessary. Both of them, really. Well no. Black Widow served a purpose. As opposed to Cobie Smoulder's Maria Hill. If she was supposed to be the eyecandy, she surely didn't catch my eye. Other major flaw is the forced 3D. My cinema didn't offer me the choice between 2D and 3D. And I regret that, because I watched about 30% of the movie with glasses off. It doesn't improve the experience, but on the contrary - makes the faster paced fight scenes blurry and hard to watch. Whedon's humour is clearly visible throughout the whole thing and is a major strength of the movie itself. And again - Hulk steals it. Stark tries to be funny, but on majority of occasions fails. I left the movie satisfied with the outcome. There were superheroes, big fights, laughs and Johansson in spandex (unfortunately 3D instead of pleasing the male audience did the opposite, blurred everything in closeups :( ). If you wanted a movie with tons of your beloved comic heroes doing good, you get better. You get a well paced and executed picture, which clearly sets up the ground for sequels. And I, for sure, will be visting a cinema nearby to see it. Just as I will go to Iron Man 3 and Thor 2. I will not go to Captain America 2, because Chris Evans is NOT my Captain America and at the same time is the biggest flaw of The Avengers. Pity, but we get Hulk, Iron Man and Thor to cover him up. And that's enough for me. Assemble in a theatre near you and enjoy. As did I.

Me gusta. A solid piece of entertainment. I'm definitely not in love with it, but I'd go for a second date for sure. All actors live up to their names, the plot keeps you interested for the whole time. Some moments and dialogues are cliche and too shallow, but as a package - it totally works. Back to the actors - I have a problem with Clooney and Gosling. I like them, I really do. But I just get the feeling that they are great at playing every part the same way. It's entertaining, but hardly surprising or astonishing. That's why it's only a 7.

I must say. It was a challenge to make a new & refreshing formula boring at the end of its third installment. While the first sequel covered some new ground, the third does nothing new. I admit it, I was curious about the way all of this started. The problem I have with PE3 is that it focused on the same plain dumb moments during the movie, when they stop watching the footage and argue (watch it! no! it's stupid, there's nothing to talk about. there are no ghost. stop the cameras!). Doing that once is okay - people are people and I can understand such behavior. But 3 times in a row? Please... The actors do their job well, the visuals are on par, but the story doesn't catch up. As stated before, the whole explanation (if you could call it that) took no more than a minute and was really shallow. I guess now we can expect part 4, which will concentrate on the actions from the movies finale. To wrap things up - if you are new to the series, give it a shot. It would be actually easier to watch the trilogy from the end. If you've seen the first two movies, you'll probably end up dissapointed with the movie and plot as a whole. There are some moments worth seeing. It's just a bit sad, that they don't get enough attention from the plot.

"A brother's love is... a brother's love". A stupid sentence from "Gone in 60 seconds" comes in suprisingly well for this movie. It's a film that, based on it's premises, should be a complete cliche. And it is. ****! It builds on it. What you expect to be a cliche, comes as a well served emotional moment. From almost the start you know how it will end. And it does. And I don't mind it. It's just like looking at a kitten at YT. You know it's probably gonna be cute and it bores you. But when you watch the clip you go "mom, please". The same goes for this movie. The actors excel, each and every one. You don't get to hear the whole story or see them do what you expect. The brother's meeting should be about "I had problems", "well, i have problems, too". No. They don't say it. They define where they are now. They don't exchange problems. They keep 'em to themselves. While you know it well, the keep them to themselves. And that's what makes this film worth watching. I kept my fists closed even if I knew what was going to happen. And that's a great thing for me, especially. This is the best movie I've seen this year. Nick Nolte has established himself in my eyes as one of the best old generation actors now (above and beyond De Niro or Pacino, seriously!) and Hard on the newbies side. Joel Edgerton provides as well, while Jennifer Morrison is no longer irritation as in House M.D. Kudos for all the cast. And I mean ALL. The whole thing is a bit long, but trust me... it's worth the investment. Especially... when you have a brother...

I enjoyed the first movie. It was just the way I imagined Rowan Atkinson as a "spy'. The sequel is a mistake, though. 3 or 5 laughable moments just aren't enough. It's the same thing all over again. I just didn't buy it. Just as I wish I hadn't bought those damn tickets for "Johnny English Reborn". It just wasn't worth it.

It's a fresh look, definately. But that's all 'Drive' is to me. Well... that plus the music. Gosling's acting isn't that astonishing to me (althrough I like his other performances), the plot is inconsistent and overally I find this movie somewhere in the middle, with a few interesting moments. I kept on sitting and waiting for the movie to start. And then the credits rolled... The problem I had with 'Drive', along with many other movies is that the trailer tells the whole story. There's nothing more to unfold than what we can see before sitting in the theatre. And that's just not enough for me.

Absurd, completely bollocks and boring. Those were the three things in my head when the credits rolled (BTW the best part of the movie, IMHO). The story, character decisions are completely senseless. Jason Statham "acts" and looks the same as in almost every previous movie he appeared in; De Niro has something of 45 seconds of screen time; as opposed to the previous two, Oven manages to defend his role; the characters are generally shallow; handguns tend to fire something around 30 rounds per clip... The list is long. There are that many pros for this movie to make it entertaining. That's too bad, because the round-up of actors was something **** promise for this one. What we recieved is yet another **** the actors.
