this is nothing special. don't know why its at the top of so many lists. its a touching true story but as a boxing movie i feel warrior was far better. extremely average
this is pretty funny and abishek does a phenomenal performance. but the everyone else's acting was horrendous and the camerawork was hideous. directing was a big fail with absolutely no continuity between scenes at all. this was a massive fail
this was far worse than the first twilight movie though i can't say the same for the others in the twilight series. this was a crass and extremely bad attempt at comedy by the guys that keep giving us "comedy" movies that get crappier every time
this was one hell of a movie. i must say when the movie ended i literally had goosebumps. it is always difficult trying to bring a book onto the big screen. conveying all those emotions from prose to film is not an easy task. but francis ford coppola did a terrific job. a timeless masterpiece that i will keep and share with my children (when they are old enough, of course)
people have been bashing this movie for ages. personally i feel if you saw the first one, you know exactly how the next one will turn out. a borderline-sociopathic genius with his slightly confused but smart sidekick goes around town bashing bad guys, being awesome and clairvoyant, and a final showdown revealing great mystery and suspense.
i expected more of the same and got it, enjoying all of it thoroughly. slow-motion set-pieces were excellent, lead cast were all great but Harris who could have put a little more substance to the narcissistic egomaniac that is Moriarty.
the one scene i felt was completely unnecessary was the one where mycroft presents himself naked to Mrs Watson
i think people just bash it because they got their dose of Sherlock from the series which was a little more true to the original and hence like to nitpick this one which is clearly intended as a blockbuster.
this was a great movie. so refreshing from all the gorefests we see so often these days when writers don't know how to legitimately scare people. a great parody of such b-grade movies
this was a total rape of scientists and their procedures, rules or language. what these "scientists" did made no sense
a biologist leaves an alien body because he's "scared" but goes ahead and touches a snake because its "cute". a geologist doesn't want to analyse rocks and is lost despite being in charge of the mapping devices. and worst of all, no protocols for safety against contamination were followed whatsoever
. this movie insulted me and my intelligence and the intelligence of all present. someone doing that to an engineer is tantamount to baiting a shark with your own bleeding leg. whatever anyone says about this being some thesis on theology and deep questions is bullshit. they answer nothing and try to pass off being intelligent when doing so. what a waste of time and money. to the people saying "oh the story is flawed and narrative is flawed and score is flawed and script is flawed but such an amazing movie!", good for you.
this was a brilliant and sad film. didn't understand much when i first saw it but now i really appreciate how rich it is in story and detail. but i wish they didn't cast keanu reeves. this is highly underrated.
this is a very cheesy and predictable movie and definitely does not deserve such high ranks on imdb but is still a very enjoyable and blood-pumping action movie with a good amount of emotion and is pretty well taken.
this movie was at the golden age of malayalam cinema when comedy was truly funny and satire was all the rage. this is a must-watch for any malayalam film-goer
its a decent movie. the good lighthearted comedy expected of the unique partnership is there and a simple plot pulls the movie forward. the movie had its good moments and ended well. not the best mib but a good effort.
as with big lebowski, this film has its cult following. and as with bg lebowski, i am going to get a lot of flak for saying I HATED THIS.
i will not go so far as to say this was "pretentious", but it was certainly very boring. i slept off during tommy lee jones' long monologue and was suddenly shocked to waking up by the climax which i saw as something really out of place. i did not understand this movie but i want no one to explain it to me since i don't think i would like it anyway and i don't want to waste their time.
i am not stupid. i have seen quite a few simple movies, many plot-filled movies and a small number of art and indie films and liked them. but i did not get this. i would rather have seen "there will be blood" get the oscar. that movie was brilliant
made by a director probably fresh out of film school, bursting to the brim with abstract and esoteric ideas, this was a mashup of science fiction, philosophy and other weird plot elements that only serve to thoroughly confuse and bewilder the viewer. i personally did not enjoy this though, apparently, many did.
this was a movie which is the ideal example of a superb script in the wrong directors hands. the plot is amazing, actually giving me goosebumps at the climax. but the shots, the terrible casting, the bland dialogues and below-average directing ruined it. at first the creepiness was successfully shown but soon became a mishmash of chases, fights culminating in a brilliant but badly executed ending. i hope someone better remakes this and gives this the respect it deserves. otherwise i can only give this a 6/10
@Nuked thanks for your pretentious, long, boring and ultimately meaningless comment. it was very much like the movie itself.
at some point in your long cinematic journey you have obviously realised everyone is different. the very fact that you wanted to point this out to me has merely proven in my eyes that you're a pretentious douche who has no respect for criticisms of this piece of shit that somehow found its way into screens. you have taken this so far as to call a fellow critic "a fucking idiot". well i have my opinion and many share this with me.
i never called the FILM pretentious. i have called people like you pretentious. people like you who see great meaning in art devoid of any talent, in "masterpieces" that are devoid of any sense. people like you who write long, rambling comments that ultimately make no sense and convey no message. you call me "not stupid" but try very hard not to actually call me stupid. you call it a personal experience but reject mine.
i respect you for your varied experiences in films (3000 is no small number) but when you come here and proceed to insult other critics, you strip yourself of all dignity and respect. i am ashamed of your behaviour.
random ordinary guys getting superpowers but going berserk instead of saving the world. it was a slightly above average movie with nothing special. ending was flat and the final scene was not in tune with the rest. actors acted decently, the camera mechanic was done pretty well, overall watchable for a night when you don't have anything to do.
very heartwarming movie, full of light, life, hope, dreams and adventure. this was charming with the most charming being little rosie mee. amazing performances by all the cast. a lovely little family flick that i recommend to all.
Wow. Never seen George Clooney sweaty, tired or totally exhausted in any movie. Anyway, great performance by all the cast, very slow and apt pacing, great drama, very original. Probably one of the best from the Oscar pick. The daughters were exceptional. This one I highly recommend to anyone that likes slow drama movies.

this was unexpectedly really good. this kind of movie i like, where it is what it presents itself to be; a loud and garish slapstick comedy.Movie comment on Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
