I find myself compelled to cast my thoughts into the void of the internet, hoping to hear some echoes back in the form of scathing remarks that capture the absolute vapidity of this horrendous shitshow, this lamentable waste of time, manpower and bandwidth.
Just “wow”, I’m at a loss of words for how bad this movie is. I’ve watched some bad movies, and almost always at least enjoyed a scene, a one liner, a concept, but maaaaaan, it’s so bad you can’t even laugh.
Please, someone, just tear this “film” a new one so that I feel I’m not alone in my sheer hatred of this incohesive collection of not even cutting room floor worthy scenes.
I would like to know who keeps giving Zack Snyder money to make movies. I’ve left better story lines as stains on the side of a toilet bowl

He does good action and could just stick with that and it would be awesome, but for some reason (i suspect it started after watchmen) he thinks he’s christopher fkn nolan despite the wealth of evidence to the contrary
But the action wasn’t even good here. Constant cutting makes it impossible to see what’s happening on screen and the cgi also did not look good in this movie, especially for what the movie cost. And let’s not even talk about fight choreography because it’s basically non existent. This movie has no redeeming features.

Oh don’t get me wrong I went into the movie fully aware of that, but still, it was so much worse than I expected!
Great visuals. Better plots are written on bathroom stalls.
I thought it was pretty bad too.
Somehow Snyder failed on all of the following fronts of making a movie: bad story (the plot), bad script (the dialogue), bad editing (let’s go planet hopping to assemble our merry crew?), bad bad bad special FX, bad overall visual appearance (every scene was clearly a green screen digital stage, the sepia color grading looked horrendous), and poor casting choices for everyone.
Sophia whatshername cannot act unless you call “making one face and delivering every single line with a flat emotionless affectation” acting. The only role she fit into was when she was the knife leg assassin in one of the Kingsmen movies because she had like 3 spoken lines in that entire film.
bad overall visual appearance (every scene was clearly a green screen digital stage, the sepia color grading looked horrendous)
This is deliberate and I don’t understand how anyone thinks it looks good. It’s the same as the recent zombie movie he made.
I seem to remember Sofia doing fine in Star Trek Beyond.
She absolutely was fine in STBeyond. Zach Snyder can’t direct his actors and has no idea how to tell a story.
I think he did a great job… Shifting the overton window on film so much that Sucker Punch is now only seen as “not great”.
JRPGs have deeper characters than this movie
Pornos have deeper characters than this movie
What’s the difference

Hahahh, exactly the kind of response I was looking for!
The premise, trailer, hype all seemed pretty cool. And it’s Snyder so we know it’s going to suck. So somehow we watch the whole thing to the end, forgiving the sucky stuff because we knew it was coming. What kind of brain hack is this?
People forget that, yeah, Snyder made 300, but he also made Sucker Punch.
And what was his last good movie?

Weirdly? The Justice League Snyder Cut. 72% on Rotten Tomatoes.
And I have a hard time believing this is actually good, rather than just release hype.
72% on Rotten Tomatoes, I watched it, it was decent.
Ohhh, I hated Sucker Punch back then
I still do, but I used to too. ;)
it’s no longer a mystery why Disney turned down Snyder’s pitch for a Star Wars movie, if that ever even happened and wasn’t just a story fabricated to drum up hype.
Watching that movie is like having liquid dog shit blasted directly into your eyes
From the source or via pump?
I’m going to be the weird one and say that I quite enjoyed it. However, I’m waiting for the longer, more violent cut releasing later this year. The film clearly should have more blood and there definitely needs to be more characterisation.
It feels like Netflix wanted a shorter, more sanitised version to speak to a larger audience. Netflix does Star Wars (or A Bug’s Life 😄).
This movie honestly started as a Star Wars script. And if made in that universe, it would have made the sequel trilogy look good in comparison. Now it’s like Netflix ordered a new Star Wars movie from Wish.com.
I’m glad I didn’t really get excited. The only thing that I was interested in was the robit (Jimmy) but I hear he didn’t have much screen time. Maybe there’s more that people haven’t uploaded to YT, but of the 3 scenes I’ve seen one of them he just runs in+pulls a trigger+runs back out. EDIT: For what it’s worth that is actually a payoff moment
I sort of hoped he’d be a cyborg and they’d go into that (or robot autonomy), but that’s definitely too much to ask when they can’t even do the basic shallow stuff right.
I turned it off after she gave the dude “fuck-me” eyes at the barn dance three minutes in.
It’s longer than the movie
He’s got a lot to say.
