I’ve been wanting to watch it for years because Barry Pepper is in it. But I could never muster the courage.

Bruce Willis’ Hudson Hawk. I didn’t realize how much the critics hated it until the internet.

Battlefield Earth basically being Scientology: The Movie!
I've never actually watched it, but it looks absolutely absurd even in terms of 90s Sci Fi

Damn this a super dumb take.

Niel Breen is the correct answer. All of his movies involve him being the greatest person to have ever lived...ever. He heals people using magic rocks, he is the best hacker in the world, he knows all the government secrets, he owns 15 broken laptops, he's won every military medal ever, every woman wants to bang him, assassins are always trying to kill him. Shit's crazy

How about "let me show off my accent" movies? I especially loved Dennis Quaid's crazy cajun accent in The Big Easy.

My problem with the film was the second trailer showed the entire movie and proved (spoiler) that it was all really happening. So there was no suspense or surprises at all

The setup is meant to make you fear your political oppositions. How many youthful gay couples adopted Asian daughters? How many news events are attributed to right wing manifestation, like some mythical rainmaking?

Because it’s a story with an impossible choice. It’s a interesting premise is all.

I’ve been an atheist all my life and didn’t get your same reaction. It’s a simple thriller is all. I guess you can see anything if you look hard enough but that obviously wasn’t the intention by the cast and filmmaker. It’s really about would you sacrifice to save the world.

It’s a metaphor for climate change, so the ending of the book would make little sense in this context, where the catastrophe is real. The point of the film is whether a parent is willing to sacrifice their own life to make the world a livable place for their children. Most parents would.
The bad faith arguments around this film are really weird.
I don’t remember the film even mentioning the catastrophe being caused by God. I saw the film as more of a universal reckoning in line with cosmic horror. Nature needing a sacrifice made on the basis of love as an act of protest against the otherwise senseless cruelty of humankind. I thought it was good.

The only other thing I’d add to that was how often they were whispering. I think they laid it on a bit thick in some places as far as how dramatic they made some scenes. Also the insane amount of loud breathing.

That’s still fiction, it’s a story. I really doubt anyone who watches this movie thinks that one day a group of four people who represent the four horsemen of the apocalypse will appear and ask them to sacrifice a family member for the survival of the world. You’re being weirdly paranoid that this movie will somehow make ppl religious. Kinda funny, I imagine this is what the Soviet government used to sound like.

I like the BP movies well enough, but disappointed neither film was really focused on the character.
The BP movies both feel like avengers movies, when they should have been focused political thrillers more like Winter Soldier. Same goes for the Black Widow movie.

It just comes across as a film where you don't really care what happens, like a lot of the Marvel movies that aren't part of a chain, i.e., The Avengers movies.
The main character was so poor I was starting to wonder if she was actually going to become Black Panther or not, I would have been satisfied if it were someone else and it wouldn't have surprised me.
Get to Kang already and stop releasing this tripe.

My bad.
Black Panther was a heaping pile of shit and Angela Bassett was a fool to think she'd get an Oscar for it.

I found it a too depressing and I was disappointed by how little we saw of Shuri as Black Panther. 90% of her Black Panther scenes were already shown in the trailer.

Regarding Riri, the actress did an interview for Teen Vogue where she said we'd might see a very different Riri in the Ironheart show so it sounds like they know she didn't work well in WF.

Sir.. This sub is all about bashing popular movies who were never meant to be a classic to begin with. How dare you not just agree with OP on everything. And have the gall to correct their wrong assertions, by being a rational observer.

Governments of the world know better than to mess with Breen. He's got his own personal satellites. He's got tuna cans.
