Fun Movie
18 June 2023
This is a fun movie and the cast was great. The movie is the best dungeons and dragons movie made and then some. They walked the line of game references for the players while making a good movie. The jokes are good and characters are likable and believable. This is a pleasant change from what Disney is pinching off over on their side of Hollywood.

The story was really well done enough detail and backstory of the characters to make them come alive. They definitely have another one or two they could make from the cast and story they created. I hope they will consider it. Keep up the fun and relatable stories.

Nothing New
29 May 2023
After Laura Dern was a large player in the murder of star wars, i can't watch her on screen. She destroys what she touches and that was unforgivable.

The movie is using its name to make money. No real development but does have the right racial mix for modern audience lol. None of the last should be a surprise at this point.

Note to writers. Make a movie with good character development on your own. Everything you are using today was created from previous masters.

Bring on a new character by writing story around them hell you have some great actors and you could make a hit with Chris Pratt alone. Make each character have weaknesses and strengths.

The movie should be a build up. Like a slow song that increases throughoutout. You don't need so make stupid jokes after killing people and the diversity is forced. It feels insulting from most people's perspective. Add more reqlisim and grit. Less you and Hollywood.

The one thing I did learn from this is whenever faced with a dangerous animal or dinosaurs just put your hand up and it's all good. They become tame and just stop what they are doing.

This is a good movie if board on a Sunday and nothing better to do. You can get up do laundry miss 15 minutes and it ready does not matter. Not a movie worth getting out of your seat for. But that seems to be most movies these days.

Not a bond movie
18 December 2021
Warning: Spoilers
People are being nice. The casting was terrible. Character development bad and at the end when we should be sad I was just waning it over. I love bond but the too a woke stick beat it, then they killed bond. I don't think anyone should ever end the series. They kinda imply the black lady 007 or his daughter would be bond but nobody would watch that because it's no longer James bond. Way to take a formula a show how to f it up. The glider into a sub was cool.

Almost good
28 June 2021
The base story is good but the situations or explanations are just lazy.

Characters constantly act out of character. Like father recommending his daughter destroy her best friends marriage so she can be with the man she loves. Wow stupid. That's some great advice pop.

The white boarding of how to solve their debt caused by the wife poor money management while the husband was dead. He does all this math in a frenzy on a white board, only to come to the conclusion they will make small payment and it will be fine? What was the point?

The men in the show are portrayed as feminine. The woke aspect is off the charts.

Remake this with some effort and better writing. Less, soap opera esk and it could be good.

I'm on season 1, about half way....almost ready to check out.

Great show
31 May 2021
Most of the characters and story is great. It's like a mob movie in Montana. Like so many of the new shows people die...a lot.

The only character that is hard to watch is Monica. She complains about everything and brings nothing to the table. She is not happy in her trailer, feels guilty living on the ranch and then when camping complains about that. Please kill her off and and my suffering and hers. We would all appreciate it lol.

Season 2 stinks
7 January 2020
Start with a layer of stupid and keep adding layers until it is idiotic = season 2

They are accountant but in season two they are 007 who invade another county because he has a hunch which was wrong and the current leader is a mean. I was rooting for the bad guys at the end.

Halle Berry Really!
26 December 2019
She was not a good addition. Over acting, and as typical her roll is greater than it should have been. The dogs where cool but the Halle Berry character was made to be a female john wick just showed her ego. She looks frail, It was embarrassing. I was so glad to see she was only a temp character.

As for the rest of the movie the action was great but they will need to change it up in 4 or it will become tired. John wick is becoming too powerful and unstopable....he is getting to be a little too marvelesk.

Terrible addition
20 August 2018
The story had many many holes. Felt like the Empire was all white guys vs women with big noses. Anyone can jump in a fighter and be a pilot. Political correct Hollywood film missed the mark. I can spend hours explaining my disappointment but a turd like like does not deserve it. Luke could have been much better. In return of the jedi he comes back like a bad ass. Here he is a weak old man on the big nose team

Good and bad
16 August 2018
Fun to watch. Light and interesting. Camera work is good. The down side is he speaks will food in his mouth constantly, food on his mouth, and gross to watch. I feel bad for the people he is talking too. Fix that and it's good

Wow that was dumb
18 September 2016
I gave it three stars for the expected visual effect in a Marvel movie. The action is good...often way over the top to annoying levels but visually well done.

Because I'm not 12 I need more than explosions and throwing people through buildings....kinda tired of that.

The story line, acting, and lines the actors where given are terrible. The scenes seemed to miss their intended mark. The director must have said 'that's good enough' repeatedly.

More and more it seems the story's are just ridiculous and with 10 minutes and imagination these bad plot lines could be changed to make it better.

There mom's names are the same so they are now friends? that is the best you got? Simple changes could make the scene great vs everyone saying how stupid it was. for example:

Superman could have tried to explain it to batman how he needs his help to save his mother 'while they are fighting' and after battling a while begs his help knowing time is short. Superman then gambles his life that batman will choose good over evil and gives batman the choice to take his life or help. Batman comes to realize they are a like and they jerk each other off.

Instead superman looks like an arrogant bully and they bond over mommy names....good work!
