I like this kind of miovies and series. So I was very pleased these episodes scored very high on IMDb. So I had to watch it.

For me, after watching the first three episodes, this is a no go. It looks very much like The Last samurai, although the Samurais are replaced by Shoguns. There is a white fellow who gets captured and learns the way of the Shogun. Similar story, stretched out over many episodes, does not have the heart and soul of The last samurai. But still manages to get a higher score. That's strange.

So Hiroyuki Sanada has played in both as well; Shogun and The last samurai. But in Shogun he is the leader of his tribe and his part is played by someone else. Tom Cruis has been replaced by an other white guy and that's it.

What disturbed me the most is that there is a lot of talking going on. During the talking, a younger man gets emotional and shares his anger in front of everyone. By doing so, he says that his bloodline will end. And so it happens that his ashes and the ashes of his baby ends up in two doggy bags for his wife. That did not make any sense. Cutting his thumb off would have been enough.

Since Ron Howard's Rush 2013 is like to watch car racing movies. Ron set the bar really high and ever since there was no movie to top it. Not Le Mans '66 2019 and not this one.

First of all the story goes all over the place. Every scene gives you an insight of Enzo's life without connecting the dots. There is no character development to share some sympathie for the characters. It is just a sort of study about the man's life what should have stayed as a story.

The race sequences were not exciting. Something I excepted to see in a movie about Ferrari. When you know that Masserati was terminated there was no rush in finish the race as a race. So why didn't Portage change the tires or why did Enzo leave that choice to Portago? At the end it was Enzo's car and his name on the line.

Acting was average. Did not know what Dempsey was doing there. Penelope wasn't acting great, come on. I hear people say she acted Oscar worthy. I still have to see that movie with her in it. This wasn't it. I guess I expected to much of this movie as a Ferrari car lover myself in combination of a fan of the movie Rush 2013, that in all aspects this movie was about to fail. But then again, if you can't top a movie made ten years ago, just don't give it a try. Leave Ferrari as a book. Not everything has to be transformed into a Hollywood movie, just because there had to be a movie made.

I have seen the movies with Katniss and I liked them. This one not so much. I did not like the female main actress. Her acting was not loveable and I just did not believe it. Why did she have to sing?

The writers have been up and down in every corner to make links between this movie and the movies before, but the links could easily be forgotten as well.

There were so many flaws and ideas that made no sense at all, like the birds who could copy human voices with a device. What was up at the end of the movie? Since this is a prequel, what kind of effect did it have for the other movies? Was Katniss Snow's child?

The only plus was the male actor. But he could not carry the whole movie on his shoulders. This movie is just a waste of my time. It was better if I wasted on Napoleon, but can't go back can I?

If I would have to write a review about all the things that are wrong about this movie, it would be a very long review. Nowadays movies are not what is used to be. Movies with srk in the past had a soul (DDJL), a heart (Mohabbatein), were thrilling (Darr). Movies of today are poorly written with a lot of action that makes no sense at all. We get to see the scenes in normal speed and when someone important shows up we get to see him or her in slowmotion. That effect wears out.

The writer didn't know if this movie had to be a thriller, action movie, romantic or a comedy. So he mixed it all up and turned it into a turd with a flague on top of it with the letters SRK written on it in the hope it would save the movie.

It didn't. IT's a soulless, heartless movie. Yes, the situation about the farmers in India, breaks my heart. But to use that as an excuse to make a bad action film around it makes me cry.

This movie is about an astronaut that travels alone to Mars. When he leaves earth he looks outside the window and sees earth. How is that possible? When you leave earth, the bottom of the spaceshuttle faces earth. There's no window there.

The astronaut faces little problems and meets weird other astronaut in space what has to make the movie a bit exciting, but as the movie progressief, the events did not really matter.

Then a fuse burns and a part of the water supply gets dirty. How did that happen? If a fuse in my house burns, the water in my watercooker stays as it is; it is a closed system. But not in the spaceshuttle. So it leads to more so called problems. He gets condens in the shuttle and his Plants dies but ultimately he also fixes that problem.

He talks to a guy on earth who says that if there is an error, he has to go back on earth. As a viewer I don't get how that is a bad thing, so I am not engaged to the story or the astronaut.

Movie is not interesting. Even the acting of Mark Strong cannot save a movie that has a lot of flaws and doesn't make sense.

Heart of Stone is a movie about a secret service team within a secret service team. I must admit; well found. I watched this movie because Matthias is in it. Fine actor, had a smart role unfortunately.

This movie is full of cliches. The movie starts with a Cameron - Schwarzenegger feel; True Lies. Fun humour (what gets away when the movie proceeds in this case) seeing a lot of Galdot action in the snow. In the middle lot of talk about this device called the heart. Bit boring. At the end kind of a Schwarzenegger feel again, Total Recall; where a team gets out of air.

Action sequences are fun to watch, a thrill. Gal Galdot is a beautiful woman to watch, nothing more than that. She comes up for equal rights for women in movies. Or maybe for her own paycheck even though she puts in less work in the result (Red Notice). What I don't get is she didn't defend her female boss being called "the king" like only men can be at the head of teams. Why wasn't she called "the queen"? Why didn't Galdot stand up against that? I guess standing up would not affect her paycheck in a good way.

Fun movie to watch, for once.

The Flash begins good. Good action. Affleck had great action on the highway, the kind of action Batman deserves. Miller is fun to watch. But when he goes back in time to meet himself the movie gets boring. The cgi is indeed awful to watch. Overall you get to see the difference between Marvel and DC. Spiderman no way home was awesome. This was kind of a cheap knock-off. Somewhere at the end putting Reeves in it, Nicolas Cage, George Clooney and so on, was misplaced. They had no significant part in this movie whatsoever.

Barry did go to the past two save his mother and father, but never got to find out who killed his mother and why. That's what I would have liked to know if I was him.

I watched Enough, starring JLo, with my 14 yo daughter and we liked that one a lot. Since this one is rated 16 (don't know why) I pre-watched it. It was boring.

• We have all seen it before.

• Stupid things that made no sense were piling up.

• JLo is a beautiful woman, but she is not a bad-ass like Noomy Rapace.

I don't know why people who are that rich still bother to make movies. Just go enjoy your life. Do good things for people. Skip making mediocre movies no-one asked for.

The movie was predictable, not exciting at all. When there was a bit of action with the snow scooters, it lasted not long enough. The background music wasn't solid, the story about bad people going after a teenage girl because they wanted her mother, but they managed to kill a bad-ass CIA agent in a second, did not make any sense. Seeing a woman like JLo putting back her dislocated shoulder was hilarious. And of course, at the end of the movie, out of the blue, she was the mother of the year. I am a guardian to a little girl who isn't my child. It took us a very long way for her to call me her dad.

This movie did not make any sense.

The movie starts funny with a hilarious joke about mittens. Although the movie is not completely action packed and from time to time it is boring (the girl with the horns was a miscast), it still is fun to watch and you get to see some surprises.

When there is action, you get an overload. That's a pity. So the ups and downs between boring and exciting are far away from each other. But still it is a good maintained movie. At the moment you think the movie is over, you are wrong.

The best treat I got was in the maze, where I got to see the group of the cartoon version of Dungeons and Dragons with the Viking, wizard, the girl with the Cape. Thank you for that, it made my day. Maybe there will never be a movie made about them, but still I got to see this.

I like movies with dolls in it, like Chucky, the Terminator and so on. In that category this movie sure delivered. The combination between horror and the bond between Cady and M3gan really worked. If there will be a sequel, that's the First thing that van get lost.

Some actors acted very exaggerating, like the boss and Cady. That made the movie hard to watch. Luckily M3gan took care of the boss. Yes, this Cady actress is a young girl, maybe the child protection services will send her to a far different place, away from the sequel.

I notice I am already asking for a sequel; bring in like five different mean dolls. They get mean, but when the original M3gan, who is good, interferes with their pairing, they get a malfunction. So the five dolls join forces to hunt down the original M3gan. 😄

Make the look and feel different, but keep the combination of heart and horror. That combination made T2 one of the best movies made... Ever.

Nice movie.

The movie is about Melinda having a relationship with Robert at highschool. Even though Robert cheats on Melinda, she still marries Robert and chooses to be with him for the rest of her life.

Robert does not have a job, so Melinda has two jobs. Robert has faith in his energy invention, but after 20 years Melinda loses all hope when Roberts mistress comes back in het picture.

Movie was good, acting too. The movie was all about Melinda and her borderline disorder. That was a shame. I resulted in a stupid overdone ending on the boat. This movie lost the maturity to tell Robert's story. And that was a pity. When he was handed the check, there was no background music. At that moment I knew; this movie will not be what it could have.

So all the acting, conversations, building up till the end, got lost due to poor writing of the end. It's like Billy from It : chapter II wrote the script. The most beautiful part of the movie was Roberts new wife. Oh my God, that woman is heavenly gorgeous.

I must say that I love the way Park Eun-Bin gives herself in this authistic character. With her childish voice and her clumsiness she gives you as a viewer a very loveble character.

What happens in the series is very modest. There is never some kind of explosion like a fight or very nasty things that happen, like you see often in American tv series. Still Extraordinary Woo is fun to watch.

You get to see a bit of the life of a woman who struggles with her own condition. What she goes through on her daily job, she reflects on herself on her daily life. What people go through in life, she projects on herself, like every human being does durig their own character development. That makes these episodes so relatable.

On the other hand, the big things she goes through, stay small. Like her relationship with Lee Jun-Ho or her mother Tae Soo-Mi. I like the way Kwon Min-Hoo turned around. But even a relationship for him, wheter it is with Choi Sue-Yeon or Dong Geulami, stays under water. And that's a pity. There are a lot of loveble characters, but nothing much happens around them.

I am looking forward for the second season. My daughter is watching the first season now and she loves it too.

I hope in the second season there won't be an other woman with autism who becomes Woo's competition. I hope her relationship with Lee Jun-Ho will reach a whloe other level. Spice it up a little. But please take care of Woo. She's very cute.
