    ★★½

    This is unfortunately incredibly disappointing, and I truly believe it’s a WB issue and not a Bong issue. There was a LOT changed from the book, so I definitely don’t recommend reading before watching, because you will just be utterly disappointed. The overall plot has a lot of tweaks (spoiler alert, they will not be adapting the sequel!!) and none of them really make much sense, which are clear signs of multiple rewrites. Below is a sample size of many…

    I seriously feel bad for Anthony Mackie. He deserves this role and he deserves love as Captain America, but he’s not going to get any from this movie. There’s a lot wrong. First off how are the visuals still so bad. Especially during the third act, the CGI was awful, comparable to Quantumania levels of bad. The action in general is not good, with just about every action scene containing 1000 camera cuts, making it incredibly hard to be engaged…

    Mr Anderson does not miss, and this is so clearly one of his best and most entertaining. Cast is phenomenal from start to finish, and as always the dialogue is hilariously good

    ★★★

    Does Robert De Niro get paid double for playing 2 characters? Why was one of his characters doing a Joe Pesci impression? Is Cosmo Jarvis wearing a neck prosthetic, or does he just have that much neck? Why did they use the fade to black transition 10+ times? Why was this edited like a 16 part documentary? Is this a secret gay love story? Why was the end so anti-climatic? Did this really happen?

    I have a lot of questions but it’s a fuckin Italian mob movie I enjoyed it

    I mean come on, this movie is fantastic from start to finish. It doesn’t get much better. The visuals and the music are disneys best, and the story is enjoyable regardless of your age and interests.

    If you don’t think this is the best Disney movie ever made you are simply wrong

    This movie doesn’t hit as hard when you have a Kevin hart ad screaming at you every 20 minutes, but still safe to say that I love so many aspects of this movie despite it being so bleak and depressing. The entire theme centered around folk music, including some absolutely banging songs, paired with the stellar cast highlighted by the acting jobs of Isaac and Mulligan keeps this movie as an all-timer for me. This is the 4th(?) time I’ve…
