    Dune for people who never moved on from Cedric Diggory’s death.

    You either die a hero, or you live long enough to become another forgettable villain in a franchise that’s racing another studio for who can churn out the most unwatchable superhero slop possible.

    September 5

    ★★★

    At 90 minutes this is more of a story that says, “look at the crazy lengths they went through to make this air live!” and almost nothing about the actual event taking place. It looks great! It’s acted well! But does absolutely nothing regarding the victims or the perpetrators. It feels like propaganda but it’s so hollow on both ends I don’t even know if it constitutes as propaganda.

    All of the novelty of this (and why I MIGHT recommend it) is to see the first live event of its kind navigate the world of what can and can’t be shown.

    I actually like the design of Hulk in this and the Brazil scenes are actually pretty decent. Later movies made Hulk a funny comedic relief guy when he’s supposed to be terrifying like he is in this.

    Idk who the hell keeps asking for these trauma porn slave movies but this has “white audience” written all over it. Very clearly needed to be a smaller story about Gordon but turned into some gator wrestling match bs. This year has been rife with biopics that exaggerate or manufacture facts to make a big blockbuster movie but this is truly the most disgusting example of that. With such serious subject matter it makes no sense to just make up…

    Not to be that guy who thinks about the Roman Empire or whatever but when Denzel Washington said “Hose him down” I went HOSE???🤨 200 AD Rome and you’re saying hose??? Like I get that it’s Denzel and you don’t want to be the person to break it to him that the hose won’t be invented for like another millenium and it’s just a throwaway line for a guy who’s not even attempting to cover up his New York accent…
