The Worst Film Ever
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
This from someone who likes superhero stuff in general. A Peurile sense of humor, peurile cartoons, peurile themes. Unintelligent tripe.
One thing that is important to remember is that this is an R rated comedy first and an R rated action movie second with super "hero" syrup all over and inside its crevices.If you weren't a fan of the first one, well I guess it depends why but DP2 probably won't tickle your jimmies. There is all the swearing, brutal violence, blood, dismemberment, jokes, irreverence and meta-references that you would expect. Every scene with a serious tone is completely cut out by jokes, but this is still a bit more of a movie with plot and characters and motivation and all that sort of jazz. Definitely tried a little harder to make more of a narrative than "guy kills dude to save girlfriend".The stakes are really only relevant to those on-screen. Sure, there might be some larger implications if you really think about it, but they're never stated. The implications that are stated are small time, but that makes the stakes personal and better for a plot involving a bunch of selfish characters.Its also nice to have a movie that doesn't take itself seriously in a time where most blockbusters with ridiculous premises are also trying to be like "BUT THIS IS REAL LIFE!"Its more of what was successful. The same dish, but they just changed the presentation. That isn't a bad thing.
This is a good movie. Batman vs Superman dawn of justice is better. But still this a great movie. Green Lantern is better. But this had great acting. It is a good acting movie but it could have been better with out the humor.
I personally haven't seen many movies, so I wouldn't know... but this one seems pretty original. The main character keeps breaking the 4th wall and makes tons of good jokes (unlike cringy family movies). Also has good nice action sequences.Good comedy/action movie, a bit of originality, that's about it.
