Plenty to like but not to feel
Overall a satisfactory experience for animation enthusiast like myself, with some imaginative action and storytelling. But with no background story and no real character to know or love, it's doesn't really hit you emotionally.Act of Valor
Seal team hunts down a terrorist across the world

Wicked action saved the mission
One the one hand, we have very peculiar acting, misplaced slo-mo shots and indigestible patriotism and voiceovers. On the other, we have exquisite action scenes and a Call of Duty-style story telling that works very well.Altered Carbon (season 1)
In a future bladerunner-like world where peoples change bodies as they see fit, a man is asked to investigate a murder

Ups and downs. Mostly up though.
I liked the overall concept, the dark yet sensual atmosphere, and some cool action scenes. But I was struggling with the ice cold characters, a lot of talking, the unnecessarily complicated story and the ridiculous Agatha Christie climax with the big reveal with everyone standing in a room.Immortals
Gods select mortal man to act against the havoc of King Hyperio

Too nasty
It looks fantastic and was made well. But the brutality and sheer nastiness in the movie left a bad taste in my mouth. I am still having nightmares about Brazen Bulls.The Superdeep

Plenty to complain about, but enough going for it
Maybe it didn't quite nail the claustrophobic atmosphere the way it could have, it aches towards a B-movie and most characters are unlikable and simplistic. But I gotta say: the overall concept is creepy and done nicely, and the mold/spore enemy original and impressive. Nice music, tooKung Fu Panda 4

The secret ingredient was missing
One of those curious cases where everything seems to be in place, yet still something's not quite right, and you can't pinpoint what it is. It is made just fine, but I had trouble getting into it, getting exciting by it, and remembering much of it.Ultrasound
Due to a flat tire man is forced to spend the night at strangers, but it marks the beginning of his entire reality falling apart

Intriguing but executed a bit dull
It is hard to follow, but in a nice, mindfuck twisted way, and it is carried on a diligent synth ambient track as well. But something about it is a bit simplistic and uninspired, like the creators were more interested in the idea itself that the presentation of it.Godzilla: The Planet Eater
As mankind was unable to get rid of Godzilla, they summon something godlike to do so

There's something about it
I can't get my head around this one. It is a bit weird, slow, they talk too much and I am not even sure that much happened in this episode. But once it is over, I felt like I had witnessed something deep and profound. The atmosphere in these animated series is just so.. unworldly.Padington 2
The bear is saving for a perfect gift for his aunt, but he is not the only interested in it

Warm and cozy
It's hard to fault this family-friendly, cozy, good looking and amusing comedy, as they balanced of of these things just about right for the target audience. Personally, I'd like some more edge, but this is probably the wrong movie to ask.M3GAN

not scary, not surpising, but ok
It's not scary and quite predictable, but it is quite solid nonetheless, and offers some decent amusement.Movies found: 1046 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 396 - 405
