My wife and I are big Bill Burr fans and were looking forward to watching this. Holy crap, was this bad. Bill's jokes came off as cringey and we didn't laugh once. He was followed by Michelle Wolf who was also very unfunny. We turned off this "comedy" special two minutes into her routine.

Watch Ricky Gervais: SuperNature or Norm MacDonald: Nothing Special if you want to watch comedy on Netflix.

Just re-watching this series again. It is masterful. Not one bad episode in this series which is the highest compliment I can pay to a TV series that went six seasons.

Started fast forwarding at 15 minutes and turned it off in 20 minutes. Wow! Did anyone read the script before they started filming?

I heard a lot of negative review of this one but wanted to give it a shot. 15 minutes in I found the lead character to be so annoying that I turned it off. This is the worst movie I will see this year. Who was the audience for this? How did the hacks who wrote and direct this get hired in the first place?

This has got to be one of the worst years in film and here we have a needless sequel to one of the masterpieces of cinema.

My biggest problems with films these days is that I just don't give a about the characters. Here we have the kid from the Shining all grown up into Ewan McGregor, who following in his dad's footsteps, is an alcoholic. Now, there's a lot of good things you can explore here and maybe if this film was in better hands, that would've been the case. Instead we get some lame plot about pseudo-vampires feeding on children that have "the shining" and how Danny Torrance has to save this girl from these people. BORING!

After watching this crap, I went home and watched the Shining again. Holy cow! That film was really good.

Awful interpretation of the great DC character.

First, let's get the cinematography out of the way, a lost art it seems these days . This show is so dark, you really can't see anything. Either shows do this to save money or the filmmakers are just incompetent.

The interpretation itself is total bore. Characters look nothing like they're counterparts in the comics and the Swamp Thing character has a different origin now which shows that the filmmakers were embarrassed by adapting the source material. This used to happen a lot more often in earlier wretched comic to live action adaptions. Abigail Arcane is reduced to a typical CW heroine while the actor who plays Alec Holland character comes off as completely wooden. No real advantage is taken of the swamp lands or the Louisiana Bayou. A lot of it looks like it was shot on sets. The story is so boring that I had to look at the time about 5 times during the first episode. There are some homages to the "The Thing", but it only made me want to watch that film more.

Honestly with a hack like Len Wiseman attached to this, it really didn't have a chance.

Don't understand the great reviews and I'm assuming the WB paid to have these reviews written. This is an awful show which I won't be watching again.

I was looking forward to Glass as Unbreakable was one of my all-time favorite films. Despite the bad reviews, I decided to see it anyway. Things start out well enough where we see what David Dunn has been up to since Unbreakable and things move pretty quickly to setup a confrontation with David and the Horde which ends in the two men being apprehended by the police and admitted into a psychiatric hospital. After that, things start to go south starting with one of the most annoying characters I can remember on film; this being the psychiatrist who thinks these men are having delusions of grandeur (putting aside the fact that there is more than enough evidence on hand that these are not delusions). The Mister Glass scenes are interesting in the asylum but I wasn't impressed with the Horde multiple personalities. All the setup leads to a showdown between Horde and Dunn orchestrated by Mister Glass. If this movie ended here, it would've been a decent movie, but it takes a bad turn where the psychiatrist is part of secret organization that doesn't want people to know superheroes exist. They end up killing all three men (Dunn gets drowned in a pothole of water! LOL) and deleting all the footage of their powers in action. Ah, but Mister Glass live streamed everything to a private server and is later deployed everywhere so the whole world knows about the existence of superheroes. Part of the problem with this is that the footage released can be made pretty easily with kids who know how to use Adobe Premiere.

As a side-note, movie editing seems to have become a lost art. This movie could have easily been 30 minutes shorter.

So many filmmakers who make "comic" properties are embarrassed by the medium and ignore what makes them great. This is the first comic film that truly embraces its roots. These guys took what a great comic is and amplified it for the film medium. Character designs are awesome including a nod to Bill Sienkiewicz amazing work. And finally, the story and direction are pitch perfect. Can't wait to seem more movies from Lord and Miller.

On a separate note, I can't believe these guys were fired from Solo. Makes me sad that we will never see their version of the film.

One of the worst movies of 2018. As I get older, I feel time is flying by. Not today... while watching this boring piece of crap for 2 1/2 hours I felt like time wasn't moving. Several plot elements including a holocaust survivor and terrorism go nowhere and lengthen the movie by over an hour. The dance sequences reminded me of Staying Alive in the way that the director doesn't really understand the art form. The plot? Who knows and who cares. Near the end, I was just happy it was finally over.

On the plus side, the film has lots of atmosphere taking place in 1977 Germany, but that's about it on the positives. A film needs to be a lot more than great cinematography, it needs to tell a engaging and compelling story.

Wow! where was Han Solo in this movie? Let's start with the awful lead, Alden Ehrenreich, who never once felt like he channeled the character of Han Solo. I never once felt like I was watching a Han Solo film. It felt like random characters in a movie with Chewbacca. I have more respect for Ewan McGregor now. In his performance, I felt like I was watching a young Obi-Wan, despite the fact that he looked nothing like Alec Guinness.

The plot/story is so by the numbers that I think the Star Wars franchise is in big trouble in the hands of Disney. Characters are unrecognizable and stories so generic that it really needs a visionary at the helm. This was a heist film and when you compare it to the best heist films, such as The Sting or even Oceans 11, the writing is lazy and boring and you can see the "twists" coming from a mile away. This is the third crappy movie they've released after The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi with the only decent movie being Rogue One. Kathleen Kennedy needs to go.

The last thing I'll mention is the politically correct droid in the film. One of the most annoying droids of all time. If you're going to preach political themes in films (which I have no problem with), try to be less heavy handed about them. Go watch some old episodes of Star Trek to see how it's done.
