Slow motion harvesting!?!
19 April 2024
I am thoroughly disappointed and have come to realize that I may never watch another one of his films again. It has become increasingly clear that his films, consistently lack meaningful plot progression and substantial character arcs.

The repetitive film sequences and copy and pasting, for me have become boring to watch. It sucks to watch his body of work, which fails to bring anything new to the table.

The persistent use of slow-motion effects seems more a stylistic crutch than a narrative necessity. The excessive reliance on CGI and these slow-motion scenes, which add nothing of value, is confusing.

Additionally, particularly the editing, was underwhelming. Glaring continuity errors in the scenes. I even saw the dull end of an axe slice a throat. These are not minor oversights; they significantly detract from the film's credibility.

I had high hopes that 'Part Two' might redeem the cinematic tragedy of part one, but instead, it confirmed my reservations. This film feels more like a visual spectacle devoid of soul than a coherent narrative. Why make a story in 2 parts, 2 hours a piece, and prioritize flashy visuals over compelling storytelling?

No Spoilers, the movie spoils itself

A mesh up of older classic movies doesn't mean you've got a hit! I actually thought the acting was horrible and combined with the slow motion action scenes 🚮. I want my money back!

I wanted to love it, but it got worse and worse. I truly don't understand repeating scenes from previous movies, over and over again. I feel like I'm not watching something original. It feels cheap. You got me again Synder, you snake oil sells man.

Star Wars, The Justice League, 300, Blade Runner, Gladiator, and Dune.

** does this review contain spoilers.....lol Nope the movie spoils itself **

I can't wait for part two 😂

Once upon a time...

"I convinced the family to gather and a movie on Christmas Day, subscribed to HBOmax, and turned it off 30mins later. The End"

I lost credibility for even suggesting we watch this movie. I snuck back and finished the movie later, and it was horrible. I mean it's bad!

This whole "let's use CGI in every movie", is like balling up hard work and throwing it in the trash. The worse part is that CGI wasn't the worst part!

It's hard to find something positive about this movie and I was a huge fan after the first one.

THANK YOU JON FAVREAU - True Fans Just Know

Finally, it's here, exactly what we've been waiting for, a New Hope. The hope that a true fan of the franchise would come and save it. It's not polished, with needless CGI and a pointless, baseless storyline. It's nostalgic and wistful with well-placed Easter eggs that finally pay homage to the classics while turning pages on a new chapter. To have been a concerned fan for so long, watching horrible iterations, one after another. Thank you, Jon Favreau! Don't bend or change what you're doing; you're are our only hope!
