Merlin (2008)
Low budget, lack of creativity, massive plot holes, repetitive episodes and all the clichés are gathered in one
"Merlin" has really low budget comparing to other series and cant really compensate it with anything.
Special effects are not even mediocre. Contrary to expectations in a world full of peculiarity like magic and magical creatures, all we see "magically" pushed people flying and falling on a soft spot when someone uses magic. Gets duller and duller every time you see the flashing of eyes which indicates someone using magic.
Merlin's whole story could be told in two seasons yet what we get is episodes repeating each other over and over again. Imagine two episodes related to main plot, scattered to a season and what you get is "Merlin" . When producers cant even do that, they use as you might guess, filling materials instead A LOT.
Plot holes are all over the place. People wont kill their enemies for no reason. Characters are cheesy and some important characters do not fulfill what they suppose to be doing. MOST of the characters have a tendency to act the goat for I believe when writers feel themselves under the stress of the very little work they do.
Villains with soooo little background do evil stuff and give you an evil smiley every time they conspire that you wanna kill yourself. Magic users always use same spells and they seem to be incredibly happy after it works like you did not see it work a hundred times. No one realizes as something important when should not have to keep this show going for another season.
BAD BAD BAD.
Thor (2011)
"Marvel"lous Thor
1- Let me say first that consider throughly and acknowledge you are going to watch a Marvel production before you go to this movie. If you don't like the genre and you are not bored to death or want to spend some time all alone&with friends do not pay for this movie.
2- Now, for those who are interested in Norse mythology only but not Marvel comics, you may get disappointed because story has its inconsistencies like how Odin lose his eye not to mention Ragnaros. Hell even when Sif says "I'd die a warrior's death" Thor, disagrees..
3- Action scenes. I don't know if It was just me but 3D implementation to movie makes action scenes especially close combat scenes "a bit!" vague. You don't know whats going on there. I mean seriously .. Other than these close combat scenes where camera angle is terribad 3D go along with the movie well.
4- Humor: I think humor is well implemented in the movie. Makes you(me anyways) laugh often. Makes movie more watchable.
5- Romance Scenes: Didn't like it a bit. Too hasty to happen anything. You do not understand the relationship between a god and a mortal. You quite put your finger at it. It makes you think that there is something missing in it. If you think yourself as qualified to watch from previous topics go ahead and watch this movie. I don't think anyone would dislike the movie just because of this.
6- Overall: I myself, rate movies for a single fact. If I ever checked my watch in the cinema. Well I am glad to say I haven't. It was easy and entertaining to watch.
Sucker Punch (2011)
Outrageous.. Don't PAY FOR THIS!
This movie totally mocks you for paying money to watch it.. It stinks from the start where you have a hard time trying to figure out the changes where movie tells the real world and where fantasy begins. Musics are just there because they apparently thought a movie should have musics on its background. Thema changes so fast both for musics and and for storytelling it literally tells you :"THIS MOVIE CONTAINS PRETTY GIRLS AND MEANINGLESS VISUAL EFFECTS TO MAKE PEOPLE WATCH". Visual effects are meaningless because you feel to the core that they are there to fill the great hole that scenarists couldn't fill. They took random historical events, some mythological creatures/characters apparently because they thought It would look cool with the effects. This is an insult to those who try to put a good movie before the audience. If you have little respect for good-movie makers and If you have little respect to yourself don't pay for this movie.
Lost: The End: Part 1 (2010)
Was kinda expecting..
Over the past 5 years that covering season 1 to 5, as we dig deeper in to the background of the island, we were shown how deep and complicated (in a good way) the background is. Storyline was so good that there was a possibility for each tiny scene to be a clue for us to catch. At least that was how I felt and thats why I thought myself as a "lost fan". Then we came to last season, leaving us with so many loose ends, I was wondering how are they gonna get connected to each other. Last season started with a parallel universe which was paired result of blowing the bomb had ended up either good or bad as the main characters(not audience)understood. But It was actually how the deception had begun. As we were keep going to "THE END" ,I feared It'll be a disappointment because I didn't feel as enthusiastic as other seasons while watching and LOST finally became not entertaining.
I cant believe how incapable the scenarists really were to come up with a better season6 so I'll just assume that they didn't really try. Here some examples why I'm so frustrated.
All the things that connect the island including Statue of Tawaret(Egyptian fertility goddess), ancient Egypt hieroglyphics, pictures of the black smoke with an ancient Egyptian god which I assume to be Anubis,they were just fancy illusions ,they were unrelated(though made me believe higher forces was in charge) and never explained. Why Man In Black was bullet proof and how he wasn't immortal anymore, how Jacob and MIB couldn't kill each other(Their mother made them so ? then how newly assigned Jacob incapable of doing so). How the island had healing powers(it could have saved Jack), why MIB turned into black smoke at the point he reached the light and why others did NOT ? Jacob died yet MIB couldn't still kill "candidates" and It was reasoned to us as there are rules.. WHO CAME UP WITH THE RULES? Why MIB had to obey the rules ? Whats the point of having someone to protect the island If the purpose of the island to be is to keep MIB inside as Jacob explained. Hurley said whats I'm gonna do next, I don't know and asked for Ben his help? What the .... How cant u possibly not know ? How did Jacob do ? He had foreseen many things so he could save Sayid from the very car that hit his girlfriend. How is that work ? New "Jacob" needs to live a thousand years to gain magical foresight powers ?U don't even need to bumble some Latin to assign a "new Jacob"? . OK I'm just quit writing. As I type I'm getting more frustrated. I'm sure I'll come up with a billion things that were a total disappointment to me. These were just 5 mins of thinking of questions that I wished had answered but instead they had just left unanswered.It was just really bad and had it coming.
