Reviews

Why do reviews always have to be 9's, 10's or 1's? People seem to think reviewing is a simple, yes / no vote and have forgotten that a mediocre episode or film deserves a mediocre score. Your individual review won't change the average score and fanbases will usually rally in higher numbers.

I enjoyed this episode a little and found it to be a welcome relief after the darkness and anger of the last episode, but I dont intend watching it a second time next time I binge the show. Everyone will know this is a musical but there are a few plot points that are worth knowing as the series move forward.

Summary - It's not a 10 like the Lower Decks crossover, but it is mediocre in an average way.

I'm not a rabid comic book fan gatekeeping against some nebulous ideal of canon. I've enjoyed the Disney generation of Marvel, not as much as the original movies, but I've still enjoyed it all. Loki, She Hulk and WandaVision are right up there with Iron Man in my books.

This last episode somehow dragged on longer than any of the other episodes and the final "boss" fight was some of the stupidest television I've watched I've ever seen and then at the end of this cringeworthy fight, the writers and director managed to make the last five minutes drag on interminably. I stuck with the whole show in case anything happened and it didn't, in the age of tiktok where kids can't focus on stuff for more than a few seconds, Disney managed to make a show that bored a middle aged man.

Bravo on making pure dross.

Like other reviewers, I enjoyed Series One and Two quite a bit and I thought it out Star Trekked Star Trek Discovery, in fact I still do, but in Series Three I feel some things changed for the worse. With an injection of capital they seem to have spent it all on VFX and forgotten to check the script for charm.

I also have a bit of a problem with McFarlane giving pivotal roles to actors he's having a relationship with, writing new characters into and out of a small core cast removes too much continuity, as each one needs a backstory explaining why they're given such a prominent role.

Finally, each episode is 20 minutes longer and the less ruthless editing means they seem to spend too much time wallowing in ideas which would be more believable if they were mentioned in passing. We're asked to make a few leaps and suspend disbelief to accept a futuristic sci-fi adventure and these leaps of faith are easier to take if we aren't given an unnecessary amount of detail, filling in the blanks ourselves provides enough detail to accept things.

I'd give Season Four a fair chance if they make it, but I'm not going to watch too many episodes if it's stays on this Star Trek Discovery downward trajectory.

This has started in a way I really enjoyed, the actors were all great and the writing and direction was snappy. I've never read any of the comics and have just enjoyed Marvel movies as they're written, I hope we get a few funnier shows like this interspersed amongst the heavier hitters. Vale RDJ's Tony Stark.

I enjoyed the callbacks and the new stuff, I'd give a ten just for the chase scene that involved a Kei class van and dinosaurs, laughed a bit in that part and can I forgive any plot holes and supposition. Easy to watch and I'm glad I did.

I was pleased to hear about it being made, these two nerds were a big part of my zeitgeist when I was learning how the world works. It's filled with a refreshing charm and I enjoyed it for a while but then halfway through I started getting bored with the same elements repeating. I'm glad I watched it but I won't revisit as I've moved a long way on from my cloudy teens. I won't leave a political comment as too many commenters here seem to think you have to review something from a fixed idealogical position and I worry this mad US tribalism will further degrade film making and the country until there's nothing left there but a landscape from the excellent movie Idiocracy.

Whichever members of the committee that writes and directs told Sonequa Martin-Green to whisper for dramatic effect needs to be fired. Having to raise and lower the volume constantly is irritating as heck and destroys the continuity for me.

Whilst this lacks many things, it's still better written than the third movie and just lacked the budget. I hope the studio green lights a sequel and gives them the special effects team this movie needed. It mostly lacked cinema style cinematography and the soundscape was teensy.

But I still want to see the story continue.

Ridley Scott for me is hit or miss, this isn't as awful as Prometheus but it is close. Also it took me way to long to recognise the Batfleck, good casting and makeup.

The books tell a good story, there's zero reason for this to be a Game of Thrones clone. Whoever signed off on this needs to take a good long look at themselves.

Cool idea, bastardising an excellent series of novels just to steal the name of them to lend an awful series an iota of respectability. The first episode was a good adaptation which finished strongly, the second episode was rubbish and this has nothing to do with the original idea at all. I know Asimov's original few novels were a bit old fashioned but why ruin the name with this garbage. Gaaah! I'm so cranky.

I've rated every episode a ten this episode on this final and maudlin season a ten so I guess this one gets a ten and a half. The last couple of lines made me genuine lol and made a sad ending hilarious, bless the writers for delivering another happy / sad episode.

I wanted to like this, Ninjas, Joe's and bad guys. Not much to dislike there right? Except the lead was an unlikable character with a terribly written script, Tommy was better, but each scene flipped between a buddy movie vibe to the tortured soul and sadly his accent slipped more often than that. The supporting cast also went back and forth, this is like the film had two directors, neither of whom knew the other one was also working on this film, and they each had a different brief.

I don't even care if it's better. The aspect ratio was too glaring to ignore

I can write whatever I want and no one will read, they'll just downvote because they gave it one star. It's a good action movie with heaps of robots, explosions and guns. Miller did a great job directing it too. T2 is my favourite, I saw it at the cinema when it first came out, this is my second favourite in the franchise

The monster stuff was fun, the people stuff could've been but they had a B grade actor in Kyle as the lead and gave him too broad of a role to cover. And why the hell did he keep whispering? Baffling casting

Monsters - 10 Visuals - 10 Story - 6 Lead actors - 1

So this is how it ends hey? One tired joke being wrung to death each and every episode. Coma Archer had growth as a character, this disobedient, selfish crap is tired

I hope every episode doesn't keep following the same formula, self obsessed Stirling isn't working and is really annoying. It'd be great to see the team winning using their plans without this disruptive bs

The story tackles sexual harassment in a great way and Scully has some of his funniest lines of the past 6 years. People are whinging that's the show has gone woke and are blaming Stephanie, have they missed that this show has been tackling homophobia since the very first episode? You gotta wonder at any men scared of day to day harassment. What are the one star reviewers hiding?

This is my favourite season and his finale captured the chaos and fun in a way I really enjoyed. Holts best season culminating in a glorious booty shake

Ignore the naysayers review, this is great, I'm 44 years old and loved the original so take that with a dose of salt. This reboot is classic and fun, binged the first 3 episodes and hanging out for the rest of the season

Thanks to Films NSW and Netflix for making this
