Words cannot express how dire this film is, within the first few minutes there's a terrible monologue recite character names that sound like most of the vowels were removed from a scrabble bag in order to sound sci fi but wait an overly dramatic 'or so they believe' enigmatic clap trap.

It's 70's B movie plot and dialogue but without ANY of the B movie schmaltz that made them classics.

It takes itself seriously when it shouldn't as it's terrible. It should have a RAZZIE category all of its own, The Snyder Razzie - films so terrible that only 'piping up that it's not the film you wanted to make and if you throw more money at me I will make the cut I wanted to make in the first place.... I have the footage, honest' Snyder effectively throws talent at a wall and sees what sticks and then shouts wait... I can make it better whilst not being able to make it good in the first place.

Awful, awful film.

I thought one was bad but part two laughed and said 'watch this then' because it had no beer to be asked to be held.

It's taken me several sittings to wade through Rebel Moon as it's a firm pile of... well.....you get it.

Visually nothing we haven't seen and in fact have seen often. Same re the plot nothing we haven't seen and character wise, well we have seen a lot of these characters over and over.

It's like Snyder set out to steal from every single trope and make it worse.

I have no doubt there will be a directors cut but this is starting to tell me he can't make a film in the time allocated and sets out to fleece us twice over.

It's dull and unoriginal - stealing from seven samurai, rogue one, starship troopers and a host of other better stories.

I truly believe he has nothing original to give but I've no doubt they will keep chucking money at him as he talks a good game.

I was a fan but that affair is firmly over.

Oh my days.... Laverne Cox's character is awful and frankly her acting is awful too.

The writing for her character is one dull monologue after another however it's all delivered in an overly dramatic breathy manner that just annoys and annoys.

At one point my wife exclaimed 'oh for goodness sake just shut up!!!!' Dembe as always is great and the series is trundling along nicely.

I'm hoping that it all wraps up nicely and that the series end is finale but I could really do without any more episodes like this or more specifically without any more characters like this.

There are so many rich characters out there from this entire series, why bring her back??

Normally when you think of a film that's fifty percent you think that it has a strong ending or strong start and is missing the other half. Plenty of films go that way with either a magnificent start that fizzles out or a dull start that you have to endure to get to the exciting second half.

That isn't what I mean.

The 50% is that it has a majestic cast that any film would be proud to have a fraction of, it has stunning visuals that demand attention and it has a great director whose attention to detail is fascinating to watch.

The 50% missing is the plot.

It's missing a coherent plot. The one we are given regarding a tv show about a film about a play that's about a competition set in a desert where an asteroid landed isn't a plot. It's a series of small jokes that aren't funny.

Watched it, gave it 5 for the cast etc and left the other 5 off due to lack of substance over style.

If anyone is on the fence about watching Wednesday, watch it, it's very good, the cast, direction, plot and style are all excellent except for two things.

Gomez and Morticia are awful, awful actors acting awfully and completely miss the passion of the characters reducing them to the effect of teenagers in the back of a pickup truck, but thankfully they aren't in the series much.

Morticia doesn't spark the dark sarcastic cold note of the character but hams it up not in a good way.

Gomez is a parody of a great character who is meant to me stylish, debonair, witty, clever and focussed on the love of his life being everything. This character depiction is reduced to stupid hair, acting like he's a teenager with raging hormones and awful one liners referring to Wednesday. It's an awful depiction in my opinion.

Thankfully they are only in the series a couple of episodes and I'm hoping that will continue in series 2 I cannot imagine that there won't be a second series as there is so much to love about it.

Enid and Wednesday are perfectly cast as are the rest of the crew and the plot will twist and turn sufficiently to entertain and make you laugh etc.

I loved this film, great story telling, lovely animation and such nostalgia.

This was coupled with a great soundtrack.

So much to love of this, especially if you're a lover of history or nostalgia, such memories of things forgotten and I'm not even American.

However the last 5 minutes spoilt it all and left a dulled taste.

They wanted us to know some statistics and instead of the narrator saying it they rammed words onto the screen breaking the feel of the whole film. That was bad enough but it just stopped. No rounding off of the nostalgic story, no suggestion the narrator was talking to someone special. It just stopped like they ran out of cash or effort. I think this felt worse due to the writing stats.

A lovely film, well told whose ending was ruined.

I've read the graphic novels and I know the stories.

I'm watching the series and reading the reviews.

There are no filler episodes, it's all about Dream.

Each episode is about him.

It's a masterclass of transitioning a graphic novel to a series successfully.

A masterclass I am loving this series.

It's ludicrous and stupid writing but that's what I used to love about this programme.

It never used to take itself seriously, it was never real in the early days but then it lost its way, it started being serious, dark, with meaning but couldn't quite pull it off as it didn't quite mean it.

This was a silly episode with a silly series of plots. But occasionally pretended to be real.

Think TJ Hooker. Cheesy silliness, and I enjoyed it.

I have binged this like I haven't for ages. Imdb gives very mixed reviews and compares it to the film a lot. The film is a classic but hasn't really held up to time.

This doesn't take away from the film and the plot is as solid as ever.

I really like the cast and the main leads are stellar.

The female leads are what stand out for me however as the focus isn't solely on Palmer, but subtly he takes a second to Jean's character who doesn't put a foot wrong and Lucy Boynton is both talented and stunning.

If you like classic drama done well watch this.

Cannot stand reality tv and to be bombarded with clip after clip of Thorsons reality show in such a short amount of time I realised I was instantly tense and couldn't watch the episode.

I dislike 'documentary' episodes in general but when they are heavy loaded with annoying music and WAAAASUP whut whut! Clips it's just too annoying.

Don't think I've ever given a 1 before.

What is the point of making a film based on a classic story arc and then not adhering to the story line.

The big reveal, the reason why, the build up. All wasted and ignored for a bland story that leaves you slightly bored and very disappointed.

I gave it five as the animators and voice actors gave it their best, i didn't give it any higher as someone wrote this story and someone approved it instead of shouting why have you changed a CLASSIC story line.

THIS is why marvel is winning and why DC fans such as myself are so angry that they are but not surprised.

I have loved this series since day one. This film fulfils on every level and made me laugh out loud, feel and love the ending.

Those being mean have no soul.

Trust me as an honest review.

You will love this culmination.

It's a solid 8 but I've given it a 9 to redress the bizarre 1 a reviewer gave it 'beats up college kids' did you even watch the film?? The college kids were Russian mafia about to do very bad things to a young lady.

Onto the review - it's a romp, if you're expecting Hamlet you're sorely in the wrong place. It's about a guy with a pst trying to be a better person with a better life but ultimately he is true to his dark demons. It's all done with a smile and a wink and a strong dose of subtle humour.

Bob Odenkirk is stellar in this role as a man who at each stage hopes the villains don't act in a certain way whilst pleased they do, he also flips that to be the every guy father and husband just trying to get by.

The violence is brilliant and set pieces well timed. It's not that he is a ninja, it's just that he can take a punch and keeps on trucking.

The sound track is on point and lends to the humour.

It's a great film that you should go and watch right now.

I honestly do not know what the hell people are talking about. The new Mulan is brilliant. It's a solid 8 and I would watch it again. I used to love the old classics such as The Water Margin and this did those stories honour. Absolutely brilliant film and better than the original (which I watched a few months ago) also a nice cameo from the original voice of Mulan at the end

I'm once more at a loss, I'm watching a fantastic series, with amazing writing and dialogue, delivered by an astounding cast. The direction is superb and cinematography and music score beautiful. There is humour, action, pathos and a whole host of everything that makes a series great is great, and yet there are lots of low ratings. These are the people that get brilliant series such as Firefly cancelled, these are the Star Wars fans that hate because they can't be bothered to think, evaluate the information presented and interpret a result. In short the easily confused and bored. They have no ability to read subtext but want it all laid out with clear idiot boards signposting the way. The low raters are the people that require a flashback scene to ram home the plot information that occurred a mere 15 minutes earlier but are too dumb to remember or think 'oooo it all makes sense now' The Witcher is a stunning series that treats the audience as adults and lets you work out the plot by piecing the puzzles together and one of the puzzles you need to work out are the fact that there are different timelines at play. Enjoy

The Mandalorian just keeps getting better. Pedro Pascal gives a great master class in how do convey emotion whilst saying very little and wearing a mask. You know exactly how he is feeling, his turmoil and frustrations despite the fact you never see his face. This is ably assisted by the Pitch perfect direction. If only the films were this good

I've read the reviews complaining about it not being black mirror or the episode being boring. What were you watching? Black mirror is all about technology affecting our lives in the near future and showing us paths that may be trodden. This is about the perils and highs of immersive gaming, this is about better than life (thank you Red Dwarf), this is about boundaries being blurred, relationships being blurred, life being blurred. Nothing in this episode couldn't happen and very likely will happen. The cast was strong, the writing and direction both strong, ending strong. This had it all. Writing this review I changed my score to a 10 from a 9 as I couldn't see what was dropping the point whilst I wrote. I've intentionally not put any spoilers and the hints I have given were in the trailer. It's a great episode. I have no idea what the negative reviewers were watching to be honest.
