The Acolyte (2024)
I'm liking it so far.
Action, stunts, special effects, Jedi and a mystery are all cloaked in Star Wars lore. What's not to like? The choreography of the fight sequences reminds me a little of the "k**l Bill" movies. Some of the dialogue, however, is a little too on the nose. For example, " I have a bad feeling about this " was used. This has been repeated to many times in the movies, other star wars shows and even in video games. There were refreshing new droids and creatures. The 2 droids pilots that transformed into chairs and the bat like creature that covered the mouth of one of the prisoners. This was new but felt like Star Wars. What a great start. I hope every episode continues to be this strong.
Nuovo Olimpo (2023)
Cinema Paradiso did it better
Why didn't the writes fix this obvious plot issue?
If there is a riot that ruins your plans for a lunch date, why wouldn't you go back to the theater (where they met twice before) the next day to see each other. If your that much in love, that's what you would do. However, to never go back to the theater where your friends are where, the movies you love to watch are shown, and where you met the man you love, defies logic.
Then, for years and years, to pine over the guy as the love of your life made no sense. So much potential lost.
You want to see a well made Italian heartbreaking romance go watch "Cinema Paradiso ".
