Just back from Zootopia. A solid 8 / 10 from me. Very few kids in the audience, but the theatre was rocking from laughter most of the time. The kids will love, but the little ones might find a few scenes a bit scary. There were four of us and we all loved it. Usually l am not a great fan of the songs in such movies, but this one had a couple at either end of the movie, and they were more than passable.
Really looking forward to taking the kids to this one!
l reckon they will love it. The few kids in the theatre last night never made a peep during the scary bits, so l figure they werenât too upsetting.
Am I the only one who thought Deadpool was average? Especially considering all the hype surrounding it and the build-up?
Donât get me wrong, Ryan Reynolds is one of my favorite actors and someone who I find very watchable to say the least but I personally think you can watch the trailor and see all the funniest parts of the movie and not bother actually seeing the extra one and a half hours.
Yeah, it has raked in all kinds of money but if history shows us anything it is, if you give people a Marvel Superhero movie, theyâll spend ridiculous amounts of money to see it. Let alone pumping itâs tyres to the moon and back.
It has been impressive at the box office so far⌠But letâs not forget⌠So was Water WorldâŚ
I was disappointed immensely. Many obvious plot holes and it didnât meet the hype. But everyone loved it so I might be wrong(as was my girlfriend).
I thought Deadpool was just okay. Nothing special. Itâs a Marvel movie but with swearing and violence. If thatâs all it takes for people to get excited then I donât know what to sayâŚ
Watched Bridge of Spies last night. That couldâve been titled âA series of things that happenedâ. Nothing ever felt really at stake. As by the numbers as it gets. Entertaining, but in no way special.
I got more laughs from Deadpool than every other Marvel film combined, and yeah, I like my action films to not be PG.
Iâd be careful with the âeasily entertainedâ judginess, personally.

Yes - it is, essentially, a comedy. You watch it for a laugh. Not for heart-thumping, chair gripping action. The gore/violence is there for contrast and emotion-management. If youâre an adult and still go and see super-hero movies purely for action - well, what can I say.

I think it tried much harder to be funny than any marvel movie?

Maybe.
The day wasnât saved through the power of dance, though.
Ok so I'm going to get flamed for this, but I think the Marvel movies suck. Boring, predictable, cgi heavy popcorn nonsense.
I have one exception - I thought that Guardians was a really great movie, and I didnât hate Iron Man 1 until the last half hour. Other than that though, the rest can ead.
Flame away.
Iron Man 1 was probably the second movie Iâve watched with Gweneth Paltrow in itâs entirety.
Pity it didnât end like the first one of hers I sat through. Witch was Se7en.

Iron man 1 and 3 were awesome. 2 was pretty good until the last 30min then it just went downhill really quickly.
Saw Deadpool, was a hell of a lot funnier than i was expecting to be honest(the opening credits really cracked me up), some of the one liners were great eg what do they call cancer in spanish, you have something in your teeth . Action was better than i was expecting. Some of the breaking the 4th wall stuff was very clever. Ryan Reynolds is perfect for the part.
Remind me never to celebrate international womens day as well.
The biggest problem i have with the avenger movies and the stand alone films is nothing is ever at stake. And when they do kill off a character they are back alive by the end of the movie- takes away any emotion in the film.Without RDJ the whole avenger series would be screwed imo.

To be fair, thatâs entirely within genre. Nobody ever stays dead in comics.
In fact, the movies are if anything MORE prone to killing characters off for good. Bad guys at least. I think Lokiâs the only bad guy whoâs survived a film so far (does Winter Soldier count/). Red Skull is dead, Malekith is dead, all of Iron Manâs baddies are dead, Ultron is dead, Robert Redford and the Nazi in the old TV from Winter Soldier are dead. In comics theyâd have all come back again and again and againâŚ

To be fair, none of MCUâs villains outside of Loki have been worth keeping alive.
