Message: [QUOTE="Mano, post: 3195516, member: 3300"] [B]The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part[/B] - I think I enjoyed the first one better with it's more streamlined approach into it's forays into the "real world". This one was reaching quite a bit when trying to connect what was happening with these play things and their imagined world. [B]Bad Times at the El Royale[/B] - The movie ended and I thought to myself, "whelp, that was completely pointless." I didn't give a flip about any of the characters and really not a one of their backstories were all that interesting. I think the writers thought they were more clever than they really were. [B]Wonder Park[/B] - I know it's just a kid's movie but this had some of the biggest plot holes and incomprehensibly fanciful plot devices of any movie I've seen in recent memory. [B]Captain Marvel[/B] - Boring. Truly. I wanted to like it but found Brie Larson's performance lacking much of any charm or even intensity (which seemed what she was going for, albeit the quiet kind). Samuel L. did his best to keep me engaged and it was a little fun seeing Nick Fury's beginnings I guess. The cat was dumb and seemed mostly like a deus ex machina device. The central mystery was waaay too easy to call and pretty uninspired. I liked Ben Mendelsohn's character and performance for the most part but the garbled accent he was going for made it a bit hard to understand what he was saying. Hoping for better out of the character in [B]Endgame[/B]. [USER=937]@Deadrody[/USER] [USER=127]@traitor71[/USER] curious if you guys ever bothered after coming out so strongly against it. [/QUOTE]
