Saw the move love you darling Robbie😘😘😘😘🤩🤩🤩
Genius for sure - a complete artistic success!
They’re just such fun films. Now you mention it, I see what you mean about Keanu voice but damn it’s perfect casting. But the laser dance segment was pretty awesome. Though it’s a shame not all of it was Jim Carrey. Still one the best moments in the film.
Had no idea who robbie williams was but i saw the trailer and i love things that seem interesting or different so i checked it out. Somehow at the very end of 2024 it became my fav movie of the year.
Seeing this movie alone in a theater at 10:30 pm was one of the most ethereal and mind-melting experiences I’ve ever had. It sucks that this is bombing because it’s such a bold and entertaining movie!
Yes it’s just rubbish John wick but he’s Aladdin .
Genius meaning losing the studio millions?
it was a genius idea to convey the story! See that's the problem with you people nowadays, expecting PROFIT not ART, you complain how movies are made for profit like the MCU, but when you get served with a picture daring to risk profit for novelty and quality you make fun of it!
@@bamboo6640the movie stinks and it lost money
@ oh no! it lost money! what will we do now? how much money do you think the pyramids lost? how much money did kafka lose out on having not published his works? You are making a circus out of this comment section
@@bamboo6640 😆nicely put
It was independently financed. Paramount picked up distribution & marketing. It's been stated by experts that the marketing was the problem, so Paramount caused their own problem.
Sonic 3 is so peak cinema man. I have no words man💯💯 Can’t wait for Sonic 4.🔥🔥
It is scarey but fun I like it
Is the peak 🧐
Bro you wasted 10 seconds of viewers time. you think ppl watch all that crap? will you?? asap you feel bord you just swiped away. so make sure not to waste time. just jump straight to the video. no intro no shiiiiit. use your brain. do your research. i'm giving you a good tip. learn.
Thank you for your review. You really nailed it. Juror #2 is one of the best movies we've seen in years for the reasons stated in your analysis. The movie pulled the viewer in as if it were their own experience, and it would be difficult to walk away without soul-searching the ramifications of such a profound moral dilemma. We agree that Mr. Eastwood ended his directing career on a very high note indeed. His extraordinary talent will be missed!! ❤
Мультфильм Муана 2 небудет❤
Excellent review. Major wizard of oz fan. Read the book 20 years ago. Overwhelmed by the film. Drawn to Cynthia and Arriana so missed a lot. Going to see again next week 😎😊
Okay, let's start off by acknowledging that there is no bounty hunter in the film. Did you even watch Red One? I thought it was a pretty enjoyable Christmas film, not typical, somewhat predictable and yet still a good time. Maybe you just expect more than other people can deliver to be entertained? Maybe, just maybe you might not have the ability to suspend reality and just enjoy a Christmas moment?
Indeed it was such a surprise to see ekko use the z-core to save jinx i was thrilled that now he can use it whenever
Hey Harry, been watching your videos for a while! Don't know why these aren't getting more views because the content is good. Perhaps the SEO Keywords are not right, are you using any kind of tool? I'm not selling one lol just trying to help. I'm trying to figure this out as well, just recently started my own channel. Anyway keep up the good work.
Thanks dude! Yeah if I’m honest I’ve not been using an SEO tool, but realise it’s probably something I should look into, would you have any recommendations? Best of luck with your own channel as well!
I watched this 4 times in different formats but that is enough. Just wanted to watch the details of the armour, sets, costumes, fighting scenes. The story was meeeh.
I watched it 4 times in different formats. I hope I won't end up like that guy who watched Dune 2 TWELVE times in the cinema...... hmmmm.
which formmat did you prefer?
That would be so sad, I'm sure you can at least crack 20!
The film is an unapologetic cash grab, completely devoid of thought, might as well be a remake, and like vast majority of remakes, it’s just worse in every aspect. I’m so tired of “well it wasn’t completely trash therefore it’s good” rubbish. On it’s own G2 is an average film with high budget, not as bad as most modern films, but as a sequel? It’s a travesty, it made maximus’s death completely pointless, he failed, achieved nothing.
Glad he WHAT ???
(WARNING SPOILERS) For the first half of this movie I felt like they were just recreating the first film (Big battle, loss of a loved one, taken as a slave, etc, etc ) with like for like characters; Maximus = Lucius, Proximo = Macrinus, Cassius = "Master of ceremony", to me it even felt like they felt they had to provide twin emperors instead of just 1 so as to not make it the same film. I then think the second half is where it really differentiated itself, and I did like seeing certain actors returning to play the same characters again. I know many people have mixed opinions of this film, but as someone who went in with very low expectations I can comfortably say I enjoyed it and would recommend it, but would caveat that it was never going to live up to the first film.
The original Gladiator wasn't 16 years ago. It was 24 years ago.
Ah yeah sorry probably didn’t make that clear enough! The film was 24 years ago, but the story of the original gladiator was 16 years ago in the story!
I just got back from watching it
What’s your opinion?
I don't really think Wonka serves as a prequel to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) despite the number of references and nods. The 1971 movie presents us a Willy Wonka who's displeased with the presence of other adults or even kids in his factory and it tries to root his physics-defying shenanigans in science. Wonka, on the other, presents us a much more optimistic and friendly Willy Wonka and makes his shenanigans more magical.
I think ur mistaken willy wonka in the original film does still come off as quite friendly despite being rich and having a hard time when he was young and poor. so there are this is a prequel to the original film. plus in the original film he does seem to come across as friendly so it makes sense he would also be friendly as a youngster. the only characters who aren't friendly at all are the chocolate cartel.
What is wrong with you people? This film was brilliant and wonderful! I loved the music and the editing. I loved the singing and the dancing and the ending was realistic!
When joker is not anonymous, it is not interesting.
tired of endless cartoon world in Hollywood.... real life is far stranger and more interesting...or even supernatural, than cartoon characters. imo.
It is a gay prison movie. That it is a musical is sign number 1
All your comments had no substance, you said everything was boring as opposed to criticise the plot, wrong use of techniques, character flaws, or better, give your poor arguments about why it was boring. Instead this is just a 2 min video of a spoiled kid complaining about what he saw on the internet lately. Grow up dude.
Its his channel and his video he can post whatever he wants why are you crying in the comment section like a random karen on the internet
Smooth brain meta critic. The irony.
going to give this one a miss just like the batfleck film
I'd say the most interesting thing about it was that it connected Joker 1 to The Dark Knight, and it made me respect the film a little more that it wasn't just another excuse to use the "multi-universe" as excuse to make another film of the same thing. It did answer Heath Ledgers question "You wanna know how I got these scars", but I think that question was better left to the audience's imagination. All in all, I agree. The songs don't add anything, Harley Quinn could have been so much better and nothing much happened - I looked at my watch about 6 or 7 times to see how long was left. Can't recommend.
Ima probably wait till it’s on streaming before I watch this one 😬
imagine paying for this. imagine wasting bandwidth on this
This was the best film over the last 5 years.
When can I see the ending of swords Smith vic.please help me were can I purchase this video hawaii.i just finished watching episode 7 of swords village
How about all those plot holes are intentional? That the preposterous premise and 4, 291 improbabilities are CAMP? Night TOLD us what the movie would not be like. Only flaw, unfortunately, was a big one. Saleka’s cringeworthy acting performance almost broke the back of the story. He needed to get an actress for the role. But Hartnett carried the ball into the end zone with that wonderful scene in the kitchen with Pill (put down your cleaver and let’s share that last piece of pie 😂) and out of the room tased like King Kong falling off the Empire State Building. Polarizing film for sure. But hubby and I don’t get why haters don’t “get it.” We love it! Great fun!
Wouldn't it be nicer to just follow the books
Terrible movie, a very bad comedy that is badly scripted,badly acted and terrible direction that is a MESS.
I really liked this film but for me the ending wasn't dark enough. Spoilers... . . . . . . . . . . At first I thought it was great when you think he was caught but the kidnaps the singer and that would have been a cool way to end with some news clipping in the background of what he did and how he's still at large during the credits . But then as the film went on how much better would it have been if when he returns to his wife , she was actually in on the whole thing and was really his partner!!!
Absolutely! {Spoilers Below} . . . . . . . I was fulling expecting there to be a twist at the end with the wife being in on it! is it a twist that there's no twist? I'm surprised how many points in the 3rd act there were where I thought to myself "ah okay the film is probably going to end here" and then it just kept going! I think this was what surprised me with just HOW much of a role Shyamalan's daughter actually ended up playing!
I was totally expecting that twist as well
Definitely worth a watch, or two. I actually enjoyed the 2nd half a little more than the 1st, especially for the hilarious 3-way chemistry and banter of Damon, Affleck and Chau. Thanks for the tip, to watch Logan Lucky. For me, The Instigators had a similar feel to The Nice Guys and Watching the Detectives - so I expect it'll garner a cult following over time.
That a good point about the Damon, Affleck & Chau dynamic. It certainly helps to refresh the interest in the story with the more quirky conversations that goes on between the 3 of them! Hopefully you enjoy Logun Lucky as well!
This movie is absolutely terrible lol.
😂fair. Always nice to see Damon again
Great review 👍 im planning to watch it tonight.
Thanks! How did you find the film in the end??
Spiderman 3 was an OK watch. More of a "last shout" for the original Spiderman cast. Nice to see everyone.
The Multiverse storyline is awful. Anything past Endgame is terrible. No excitement.
The fact that you only have 500 subscribers is shocking to me, this video is so well done, this channel will have 100k by the end of the year, remember this comment
I think the movie single-handedly healed my love for marvel movies
Exactly what I thought while watching it, a fever dream, even though a great one 🔥
The predictive programming movie is way better than the ratings you're right😢
Hey, my name is Harry😂😂😂😂
Great names think alike? 😏
Loved this film! Great fun! Solid excitement. Would love to go see this again in IMAX and in 4DX. Just gutting it's going up against Deadpool and with a budget of 200mil dollars I don't think it will make it's money back😢. I hope people go to see this film!
Very true, it has some tough competition this summer but hopefully the studios will go for longevity, and leave it in for as many weeks possible to give people a chance to come see this!
