Better than I expected. Very cinematic, very atmospheric. Great performance and score and cinematography.
Other audience members may have missed the point though, walking out one of them described it as hilarious.
8/10, maybe a 9. -

Registered 15 years agoMortal Engines - every year one movie comes out with a gigantic budget and somehow manages to be really boring.
This is 2019s version.
The story is eye-rollingly stupid, they gloss over the most interesting parts in favour of chase scenes and Agent Smith has a distractingly bad wig throughout. It’s a wingnut movie so it does have that glossy look and feel but it was directed by someone who completely let that overwhelm the story.

Toffee "taste". That's worryingly non-commital. In fact I'm even having doubts over the biscuit now - it's chocolate"Y", not necessarily chocolate.

Great movie. It was never going to live up to the hype, as the hype machine had set expectations to 11/10
10/10 - Audio
10/10 - Camera work
10/10 - Lighting
10/10 - Joaquin Phoenix
10/10 - The rest of the cast
9/10 - The story was ok.
Aurther was a crazy, a Joker, but was he The Joker? -

Pretty sure I’ve only seen the 3rd cut, different endings aside the film is incredible. Opening scenes in the desert must have had so much work involved.
Williams score isn’t heard for under an hour and it’s accompanied by the best practical effects I’ve ever seen. -

It felt so rushed, like a trilogys worth of story crammed into one movie. And why the fuck was there a Terminator in it?? Yeah, the SFX were lovely but overall it was a dreadful mess.

Registered 14 years agoMy favourite story about that film is how Spielberg got the little boy to react to seeing the spaceship through the window. Spielberg was up a ladder with a massive sack of toys. They even left the kid going “TOYS TOYS!” in the film as it somehow works. -

I saw ET last year and found it far less dull than I'd remembered. I should probably give CE another go as well. -

Yeah, it really does, other than a few scenes of child endangerment and the aforementioned deadbeat space dad plot points, which probably wouldn't fly now.

The problem, really, is that its one of those zeitgeisty movies that you would never be able to watch fresh. So much of it has passed into various cultural touchstones that I imagine you would sit there going 'oh, that's where that's from' for two hours.
