Like it or not, this movie is hell of a ride! Movie opens with a train travel. Passengers seem like dead. A bit later we found out that a son goes a visit to his dying father to a sanatorium, where time ticks differently. His father is dead and not dead at the same time, doctor tries to save him by playing with time. Son seems did not understand what's going on. Doctor advises to sleep and son sleeps. Or doesn't he? At this point everything goes up and down. You can go to a town just simply going under the bed or there might be a town center in your basement. Movie goes through times/places/memories. We follow teenage fantasies, books, women, birds, mannequins... Movie is hard to follow and there are lots going on, but with a style. Director did a wonderful job at picturing scenes. Cinematography are over the top. Acting are flawless. Movie is funny, mysterious, scary and sad at the same time. If you haven't seen this gem yet, which is most likely, give it a go. This will be a different journey at least.

First of all, no. Do not watch this, never. No. Acting, directing, writing are bad. Actually, there's no writing, only Elizabeth Banks walking at there, at there and over there with a tight dress. This is the story. Nothing else. I wasn't expecting a super story or nice twists, I was hoping a nice 90 minutes and a bit fun. But there are none of them. If you are super free and want to do something bad, watch this. If you love yourself a bit, go watch bathroom walls, comb your hair, pick your nose, you have endless options. Lastly, no. Do not watch this, never. No. Even Elizabeth Banks in a super tight dress cannot make this good.

Do yourself a favor and avoid this sh.. show. Everything about Arrow is bad. Acting, directing, story, dialogs, writing, Katie Cassidy, Katie Cassidy and her half expressions and Katie Cassidy. Ah, I almost forgot to tell how bad Katie Cassidy is. She really sucks at acting. Or she is super talented at acting like a girl who cannot act. But it's a fact that she makes this show more painful to watch.

Story is simple. An über- rich-spoiled-handsome-playboy trapped in an island -for 5 years and came back as a superhero who wants payback. And he uses only supa-duba-suga-baby arrows while his journey continues.

"Look, there's a locked door!" Bah! No need to be worry, next arrow he picks "randomly" will blast that door. But same arrow will do nothing to Dark Arrow's hand. Because, frak logic.

All bad guys are ex-stormtroopers I suppose. They always aim bad and shoot last. Shoot sky. Shoot wall. I mean, you gals have a machine gun and that guy has only arrows. You are like 10 guys at there. Just frakking shoot already! But no.

His mom, sister, lover, best friend won't recognize him because of the hood. Yeah. Probably the best cover since superman's s-shaped-hair.

No one will ever notice that Arrow and Oliver Queen show up and disappear always the same time. Oliver leaves town, Green Arrow leaves town. Oliver comes back, well, you got the point.

He has the most annoying sister. She makes you want to slap her in the mouth every time she speaks. And what was the scene at Glades with Roy? Town is about to explode and they made out. Oh god! Gosh! OH MY OH MY! Well writers, congrats, you used every possible cliché. Except saving the city at last second.

Katie Cassidy... Her body is at there you can say that easily but her face looks like a mask. You can't tell if she's crying or smiling or terrified or happy or about to die or or or or or. She has only a half expression and that's called "open-eyes-and-glare-to-the-person-you-are-facing". I can't believe how bad she is. I liked her in Supernatural. She's not that bad at Harper's Island either. But in Arrow, she kills pixels on your screen.

And I'm not overreacting, she is really that bad.

If you have lots and lots free time, go ahead, this could be your time passer. While you are playing solitaire, this show could be your background sound. But if you want to watch something serious, avoid this.

First of all, if you are a dude, watch it. You'll definitely enjoy it. How many times a man can save the day? Country? World? Universe? I don't know and if this guy is Jack Bauer, I don't care! Every season has the same flow, a threat -obviously-, a guy that turns out bad, an annoying woman -maybe more than one woman-, a dumbass teenager, Jack Bauer -who is proved himself as a semigod but no one ever listens him-, a man/woman who wants to put Jack in prison, "I need blah blah and I need blah blah now!", chase, chase, phew phew, Jack does it -again-, end of the day. Sounds boring, right? But no, show isn't. Every episode, every hour gets you and raises tension. End of every episode, you find yourself looking for more and that's a good thing. Actually, as a action show, 24 has its own moments. Like father-daughter moments, father-son moments, Jack's dilemmas... These moments are really touching and actings are impressive. Some characters are remarkable, like David Palmer, Aaron Pierce, Charles Logan -Gregory Itzin did hell of a job as C. Logan-, Sherry Palmer... And most of the actors are simply great for their roles, they won't bore you with dull faces, or overacting. But women and teenagers in this show, they are just here for your anger. They always do the wrong thing, say the wrong thing, meet the wrong person, meet the wrong person or even a cougar! Yes, they even did that too. That's OK but I don't know why writers hate them too much. If you don't care some mistakes and you're looking for action, here, watch 24, you won't be disappointed.

I leave you here with a Jack Bauer fact: "If everyone listened to Jack Bauer, the show would be called 12."

I'm not the biggest fan of this show, but watched it all the way. I must say, I'm so disappointed and won't watch this show anymore. Logic is simple: "-Hey, do you remember that guy from second episode of this show? -Yeah, hardly. Why? -Let's make him Red John. I know he played only 1 episode before season 6 but think about it? -Hell yeah! That makes super-ultra-mega sense!!! Let's do this, but don't forget, we won't answer any questions about Red John. Just put him on the scene and release the pigeon. -OMG we're geniuses! -OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG I'm wet now." In 5 seasons they gave so many clues about RJ. But ending of RJ, nothing answered. They destroyed his personality too. He is begging for his life? He is calling 911? There is some many to tell but I'm stopping now. Summary? Motha Fckin Bread Crumbs.

Show started very impressive... back at then. Very long time ago. I can't tell when exactly but somewhere at season 4 show started to being absurd. Then jokes faded away slowly. Then Ted faded away. After one point show became "How Barney and Robin 'AWWWWW"ed Each Other". I didn't give up, I thought may be they can continue where they left off, but no, they didn't.

Writers started to make silly mistakes, Lily got much more annoying - I mean, do you really find her sweet? Funny? She is probably the most annoying person on TV. With all stupid faces and interfering others lives, I know everything and I can do whatever I want with your life behaviors... Gosh.

And at season 9... Oh my, what we got? 20 minutes nothing and lots of "Thank you, Linus"es. Please stop it. It is not funny. It was never funny. Maybe the first one we heard it but please, stop already.

Every episode is the same: Barney and Robin fights, one of them apologizes, then they make "AWWWWWW" and some make out at random place, credits. Where is your creativity guys?

I'm watching this because this is the last season and I wasted a lot of times with it -yeah, silly me. But if someone asks me what am I thinking about this show, answer is ready: "NO."
