Not woke fun for fans of the show

Overall the movie was fun, the second act drags a bit as Henry goes through multiple scenes slowly gaining appreciation for his friend that he has taken for granted too long. Most of the scenes are there just to allow the actors to play a bunch of alternate versions of themselves and it gets a bit repetitive. Surprisingly there was no wokeness. There is a flamboyant character that does some singing acts but they don't use it to push any agenda. I'd give the movie a 3 outta 5 for being clean family fun only thing that brings is down is the slow middle section.

She still got some, but her California is showing

I used to like Shlesinger. Then again, she used to be balanced in her views.

I was probably put off by her investing the first 5 minutes of her routine to berate men for "not realizing women are persons too before having a daughter of their own".
Well, I use routine quite liberally, as it was more preaching than funny.
Also, yeah, maybe. I know for a fact many women can be mothers and grandmothers to males without extending compassion to men, so there's that.
Don't know, maybe it's just me being thin-skinned.

Most of the audience's laughs are at the expense of men. Maybe because most jokes are too.

She has a part about pregnancy shrinking parts of women's brain, and making them unfunny. Even stating she can't afford that, being a comic with two kids.
Yep, agreed.

I was on the fence until she launched into the "real men are like this" tirade.
To echo Palahniuk, not sure one more woman trying to tell me what to do is the solution.

So yeah, she's gone pretty lefty with age. Not full retard, but definitely men=stupid women=victims, and political.
She even states it's the hill she's willing to die on.
Well, it's a free country.


Also, what with the trousers? She used to be hot. Now she's nice-looking for a forty-something.

And, before the cries of 'misogyny' and 'patriarchal male gaze': I remember McDonald, or even Carlin, being somewhat dashing young bucks, but they stopped playing to that at some point.

Season 1 okay. Season 2, bring the woke.

There are a few series that have done this. They keep the woke at bay until you get invested in the story. Season one was interesting. There is a homosexual character, but it's incidental. A few episodes into season two, it becomes a central theme. When two high school boys (ghosts) go to the prom and start slow-dancing, that's enough.

Cliche and Unoriginal

DEI heavy casting, multiple mixed race couples or love interests, multiple gay and lesbian characters. Very cliché teen sex comedy nothing original
to it at all. There are multiple scenes ripped straight out of other movies. The acting is average to bad. The jokes are all stale and telegraphed. The weird creepy teacher is not funny at all just very
disturbing. The adults in particular make no sense, nobody acts like these people do. While there may be a few humorous moments it just isn't
enough to make this one worth it.

Much Better Than The Last One

Some DEI casting choices. Gender swapped Dr Paine who is a male villain in the comics and of course this one has to be good instead. I thought this was much better than the second one. There is still too much silly humor and the dance sequence was one of the most eye rolling cringe things I've seen in a while and served no purpose. The FX are all great and the writing was pretty good. They completely wasted Knull though and we will probably never get to see where this would of went. Still worth a watch in my opinion.

Not much woke, but acting and dialogue is broke

By the time I hit the 3rd season, the horrendous fake accents, mundane and forced script lines, and overly "girl boss" roles with poorly choreographed fighting making it scream "unrealistic" was just too much to waste time on when there's so much other better content for entertainment.

Trash-Ass Gay Propaganda

Oh my god, where do I begin?? After watching this absolute dumpster fire of a movie, I emailed Amazon (my favorite company btw) and asked for a refund for the 99 cents I paid for the rental. I don't know what it was, but something about the title character made me feel so confused. Every time that Sam appeared on screen, I had the uncontrollable urge to kiss him right on his thin little mustache. My lust was uncontrollable. At one point, my Mom (she's my roommate, I don't live with my mom, lol) walked in on me kissing the TV and threw a chancla at me. This is definitely liberal propaganda designed to induce feelings of homosexuality in unassuming viewers. Even after I finished the movie, I can't stop dreaming about Sam. In the night, I feel the fibers of his straw hat gently rubbing against my cheek, and it makes me fucking sick. If there was a number below zero, that's what I'd rate this soy-pilled piece of shit.

idk

as in "idk what to rate it"

on one hand, it's a well-directed show. that opening sequence was peak cinema.

on the other hand, oh boy...

3 things.

1) Fisk is Trump. everything about Fisk here is a shot at Trump. even the characters he meets and talks to or is involved with are counterparts of the likes of Melania, JD Vance, etc.
yes, it's subtle. very subtle. only people with sharp non-verbal communication skills and the ability to "read between the lines between the lines" will get what i'm saying. and that's fine. if you don't see it, that's not your fault.
but here's a fact you'll find interesting: Fisk's storyline here is in fact a direct adaptation of the 2017 comicbook storyline where Fisk becomes mayor... and that too was a blatant shot at Trump right after he became the Prez.
Go figure.;)

2) not a single likeable female character here apart from Karen. love Karen. she's the only woman in the show that feels "natural" (at least for the 30 mins that i managed to watch from episode 1). every other woman in the show is written like the fluttering tail of a still reverberating echo (pun not intended) of the DEI clusterfuck that was Marvel circa 2023-24.

[but yes... they picked some damn good writers this time, because they sure know how to hide these things under the mask of excellent filmmaking. to the point even i begin to question whether it's really that woke or not. and that's when i say to myself: "don't let the greatness fool you"]

3) now, i'm not a Christian. but Daredevil always has been. even the comicbook the show borrows its name from... was heavy on the Christian undertones. not as some religious propaganda (duh), but because it's who Daredevil is as a character. it's what sets him apart from the rest of the Marvel heroes. his struggles with "faith". facing his "demons". etc etc... it gave him that edge. that atmosphere. like a fever-dream of realistic superheroism.
BUT from what i'm hearing... this time around... it's been reported (rather joyously by left wing journalists) that there are NO Christian themes in the show whatsoever. lol.

again, i'm not Christian or any kind of religious snob in the traditional sense. but i recognize butchering of art when i see it. i recognize the desecration of a character's depth when i see it. i recognize woke when i see it.

over.

Awesome

One of the best films ever made.

Feminist drivel.

N00b Reacher Watcher opinions

I've said in my other reviews that I hardly ever start watching these types of series since they *immediately* turn man-on-man gay. I said, "self, let's see how long it takes" and turned on Reacher. So far, he's cool. Kicks ass. Note: I did not read the books. Going to keep watching and see how it goes :)

The last of the theatrical released Ernest movies. By this time you should know what to expect from these movies and you wont be disappointed. If you like the previous ones this is more of the same. Acting and humor are on par with the previous films and this is a decent entry in the series. The humor while still stupid silly fun mostly works in a light hearted turn your brain off kind of way. Some of the jokes and setups (the runaway canon sequence in particular) go on for way to long and just become really silly and unfunny. I think it's a little better than the previous one but not by much
