Worst thing is that despite being big tentpole action films, marvel movies have dogshit action sequences. People just flailing while the musical score tries to hypnotize the audience.

Isn't it actually some other guy's show,? Waititi just championed it into existence and took a role on it (otherwise it wouldn't have been made). Same thing happened with Reservation Dogs, only without the acting part. They're not actually "his" shows.

the wildest thing about jojo rabbit is that it’s an adaptation of a book that’s a completely dead loving serious character drama about the Holocaust. soy mindhitler and all the gags are original to the film and book johannes is basically an incel.

I thought it was funny how the snyder cut partially redeemed snyder then his very next film was complete trash that made me feel physically sick to watch because of the horrible depth of field It was an interesting experiment into "what if a snyder film but its also visually bad"

I liked the shooty zombie bits. Snyder also seems to treat the cast and crew as human beings and put a mural of the USSR's space achievements after an interstitial that said "age of heroes".

Those were all older drafts. Still Superman doesn't talk about truth justice and the american way, he blows up Predator drones. JL did have that bear and bull fighting in front of a bank for cyborg's amusement.

I dunno someone should watch it and find out It's pretty solid, felt like a modern take on Romancing the Stone. I saw it on a weekday afternoon so the audience mostly consisted of middle-aged women who were very excited when Sanda Bullock peeled leeches off of Channing Tatum's bare rear end. It's mostly an action/adventure comedy but there's some romance in it.

What the.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_Is_Beautiful Roger Ebert gave the film 3.5/4 stars, stating: "At Cannes, it offended some left-wing critics with its use of humor in connection with the Holocaust. What may be most offensive to both wings is its sidestepping of politics in favor of simple human ingenuity. The film finds the right notes to negotiate its delicate subject matter ... The movie actually softens the Holocaust slightly, to make the humor possible at all. In the real death camps there would be no role for Guido. But Life Is Beautiful is not about Nazis and Fascists, but about the human spirit. It is about rescuing whatever is good and hopeful from the wreckage of dreams. About hope for the future. About the necessary human conviction, or delusion, that things will be better for our children than they are right now." [25] Michael Wilmington of the Chicago Tribune gave the movie a score of 100/100, calling it: "A deeply moving blend of cold terror and rapturous hilarity. Lovingly crafted by Italy's top comedian and most popular filmmaker, it's that rare comedy that takes on a daring and ambitious subject and proves worthy of it."[26] Edit: That is the magic of loving narrative art. The ability to make a viewer believe a character can just pretend away for two years the horrors of the holocaust. It's done by just excluding those scenes where the fantasy would have been easily broken for any normal human. Swell the music harder! mazzi Chart Czar has issued a correction as of 17:49 on Jul 11, 2022 |
