Overreached
This movie's overblown ambitions of doing war, drama, survival, courtroom and romance contrast sharply with bad fx, uninspired screenplay, half-baked actors and dodgy editing. I was bored watching those men get eaten by sharks, which can't be right!Sweet Home
A group of very different people in an appartment building is faced with fighting monsters

The characters hit a nerve I did not know I had
The groundwork was promising; colorful cartoon-like imagery, pleasantly weird monsters and potentially interesting group dynamics. But none of the people is particularly likable. In fact I started to despise many of them up until the point I could no longer watch it. Never had this before.Independence Daysaster
Aliens strike from above and below, smalltown folk (and president) scramble into action

Bad - but sympathetic and unpretentious
You B-movie you! With your continuous bombastic music blasting over shaky camera shots of people constantly jumping in and out a car! But it's sort of all right, it does what it can. Effects are sufficient. Fair game.Captain America: Civil War
All superhero's turn on each other for some reason

More boring and emotionless over the top stuff
In endless talking scenes, which made my son decide to watch something else, all sorts of story-lines from other movies are desperately and uninterestingly brought together. The battles are frantic but boring because noone ever gets hurt. And I still don't care about anyone.Dark Cloud
Traumatized girl gets experimental therapy by being secluded in a house run by an artificial intelligence

Too tedious and uneventful
The story is familiar, but one that always seems open for a new interpretation, and it's a story that can work just fine with limited budget like this movie. Unfortunate, this one failed. It is mostly tedious, slow and uneventful, and lacks the philosophical or technological wit to make it deep.The OA
A missing blind girl one day returns with sight, and an amazing story about the afterlife she entrusts to a small group of people

Problematic, but the premise may pull you through
Another Netflix endeavor with a mysterious story that is only just able to make you watch the whole thing, but requires you to sit through excruciatingly slow passages and episodes, flat one-trick characters, many dubious plot-points and even some crinche here and there. The twist felt uninspired.Halo 4: forward unto dawn

Mission failed: please try again
What happened? They got great looking props, effects, a spot-on color palette, an exciting Halo playground, and even the warthog. Yet all they came up with are close-ups of whining and insubordinate teenagers, and a minimal story that's still going nowhere.Pacific Rim: Uprising
The monsters have been defeated, but not for long

Do you like robot fights?
Listen, I just came here for giant robots smashing huge monsters, and got what I wanted. Never mind that every person in this movie is a ridiculous Hollywood abomination and everything they say and do is stupid as can be, making this essentially a horrible Power Rangers movie with no soul.Captain Marvel
A woman with superpowers and generic green aliens and avengers and tessaracts and whfff

I felt nothing
A cheerful, colorful, slick looking action superhero movie that went straight through me.Synchronicity
Small teams get a timemachine to run work, one of them gets caught up in paradoxes

The story is there. Execution is not.
There's probably a really clever, if not somewhat difficult to follow, story in here. But the really lackluster execution, dull performances, suspiciously limited locations and depressing dark colors made me struggle to care... no matter how much bladerunner music they throw in!Movies found: 1044 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 126 - 135
