Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Motompa Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.
Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
scottiechick01 I watched the 1st 10 mins that was enough. I was not convinced about the fairies and orc,s
Floated2 Bright is a straight to Netflix film starring Will Smith and directed by David Ayer (Suicide Squad, End of Watch). Being a fan of both Smith and the directed and having seing a lot of positove revoews from fans (mostly critics were panning), one was intiguied in watching the film. Having waited several months down after forgetting about this Bright, finally have decided in watching. After so, this film is completely dissapointing in what fans are saying. Seeing many audience reviews staying "critics are wrong", was more intrerested in watching the film.As a film, it starts off decent but eventually drags on and becomes something less than interested and tries hard at being something different as it falls short. As watching, it does have alot of similarities to End of Watch, as well as Suicide Squad, noting the same director. There are elements there but as a whole, Bright doesn't seem to fit. Much of the world where they live isn't too explained, as in how are there Orcs, Elves and other creatures among them, and what exactly year is it.Bright has a unique concept in potential and the trailers did make it look intriguing but overall the story feels quite generic and a mash up of something not great. As a whole the film is quite boring and it shouldn't given the cast and concept. Also a lot of F-bombs within the film, as it feels forced and pushed.Simply put, there is a reason as to why Bright went straight to Netflix as opposed to theaters worldwide. The critics were correct in their reviews and rating. Don't believe these "audience/fans" reviews.
Wizard-8 Although the premise of "Bright" is not entirely original (think of the 1980s movie "Alien Nation", for one thing), I was still willing to give it a chance, because of the great potential the story had. However, in the end the movie, while not the bomb as some people have labeled it to be, isn't terribly successful. It's never boring, and it does bring up some intriguing ideas every now and then. Unfortunately, most of the intriguing ideas that it brings up are not developed to their full potential. There are a lot of things about this hybrid "normal" and magical worlds that remain quite vague and not fully explained, which leads to many moments that are frustrating and/or confusing. The movie's script is not the only thing mystifying about the movie. The direction, primarily with frequent underlit lighting and hard to follow action sequences, also adds some confusion. Personally, I think the movie would have worked better had it used this premise to primarily be a satire on modern day race and culture relations - that would have added a lot more detail to this world. This is not really a BAD movie, but it could have been a lot more than it ultimately is. Maybe the upcoming sequel might improve things, but considering the dire state of most sequels, it probably won't.
besabestin This movie has either lovers or haters. no gray lines. I would have given it an 8 or something like that. But, since, unlike its quality it is rated really low - I just pushed it a bit higher.It was engaging from the beginning to the end. It isn't perfect but it is a movie one would enjoy and remember. A different world described in contemporary setting. I would recommend a watch!
