Bradley_FarrellJuly 22, 2024This movie felt like a really dragged-out episode of a TV show. The editing was a bit choppy, and the pacing was all wrong – the opening was way more exciting than the rest of the film. Since they didn't add much to the story, many everyday scenes could've been trimmed to keep the runtime under two and a half hours. I'm crossing my fingers that chapter two will be more thrilling.

Grant_CortezJuly 22, 2024First off, the music for this epic adventure was incredible! It gave me goosebumps and had me on the edge of my seat the whole time in the theater. I absolutely loved this movie and was glued to the screen for those three hours. And let me tell you, the cast was super charming!

Trevor_StewartJuly 22, 2024I'm giving this movie a 6 out of 10. The pacing is a real problem. The action scenes, which I was excited to see, didn't deliver the intensity or excitement I expected. And given the budget, it's clear they were trying to do a lot with very little. Everything feels a bit rough and unfinished. I thought it might be an okay action flick, but it was a big letdown.

Antione_ZamoraJuly 22, 2024This movie is a bit of a mixed bag for me. It's not the best, but it's not totally awful either. The main problem is that it's just too predictable and clichéd, with nothing really standing out. This kind of story would've been a forgettable B-movie from the 80s, with an obvious ending from the start and some logic issues. The pacing drags, the editing is all over the place, and the music is more like a lullaby than something that grabs your attention. I just don't really get the point of making a movie like this.

Jared_StanleyJuly 22, 2024The concept for this movie was seriously cool, but the execution just didn't cut it for me. The set design, particularly that house, had so much potential to be visually captivating and memorable, but they didn't really capitalize on it. And the script was a real disappointment. It didn't even hit the mark for a basic, formulaic horror flick. The story seemed surface-level, like there wasn't much depth or complexity, and the characters were just too generic and goofy. I couldn't relate to them at all. Then, out of nowhere, the demon popped up at the end with no real explanation, leaving me confused and unsatisfied.

Peter_CunninghamJuly 22, 2024This movie was a huge letdown. A perspective from a terminally ill patient seemed unique at first, but it was just another predictable story about overcoming pain. The story didn't have much momentum and even relied on an imaginary cat to move things along. Plus, some totally unnecessary characters were added. The sound design and scenery were also uninspiring, with the sound effects feeling jarring, and the apocalyptic setting feeling kinda fake. It just made me feel bored and sleepy.

Berta_FerrellJuly 22, 2024The script is a bit formulaic, and the plot is straightforward enough to follow. The dialogue is concise and on point, and the suspense is handled masterfully. I couldn't shake the feeling that it reminded me of "Cloverfield" and "War of the Worlds," especially when it was shown in IMAX. My only gripe is that the monster's backstory and introduction felt underdeveloped, leaving me wanting more.

Saul_LiuJuly 22, 2024The writer and director really poured their hearts into making this movie. They took a small-budget sci-fi thriller and turned it into a big sci-fi disaster film with a simple but unique tone. The cinematography, art design, special effects, and editing are all top-notch, making it stand out from other movies. Additionally, Lupita Nyong'o really delivers an excellent performance.

Alisha_HawkinsJuly 22, 2024This movie's concept is super intriguing, and the actors really breathe life into it. It's almost like they used the cityscape as a backdrop to give us a sense of how eerie silence can be, making the ending poetic and profound. But, there are a couple of drawbacks – it relies heavily on jump scares for its horror element, the story's a bit straightforward and predictable, and the leads are kind of cookie-cutter characters.

Elijah_GloverJuly 22, 2024This movie has some fantastic tunes, a tight story, amazing acting, real emotions, and a creepy vibe. Overall, I liked this heartwarming thriller better than the second one. I'd give it a 7.5 out of 10.

CORNÉLIO-1July 22, 2024This is one of the few good horror movies this year. It takes place during an Invasion Day and tells a deep story about finding purpose in life. It reminded me of "It Comes at Night," which also did a great job telling a focused story in a post-apocalyptic world. But, compared to the previous two movies in the series, this one doesn't quite have the same level of innovation and scope. Still, the middle chase scene is intense, making this movie a worthy prequel.

Carolina_LeJuly 22, 2024This movie gets right to the heart of the matter. It's a solid flick that delves deep into complex emotions and keeps the visuals and twists pretty low-key. Plus, the vibe is totally different from the last two movies in the series. It's emotionally intense, and the ending really sticks with you.

ruud-35July 22, 2024This movie might not hit the spot if you're just in the mood for a good scare. It's not a traditional horror film but more of a deep dive into the minds and connections of the characters. I got a bit emotional, especially when Lupita did her incredible "eye-acting". And it's been kind of wild to have seen two movies in the last six months that both used "Feeling Good" as the closing track.

Bailee_RyanJuly 22, 2024The movie is still entertaining, but the plot can't be more dull. There isn't much going on. On the other hand, the production quality is still top-notch. And that ending with all the old villains from before was a nice surprise. It added something extra to the movie.

Alice_PowellJuly 22, 2024I'd give this movie a 4.4 out of 10. The "Despicable Me" franchise is definitely a part of my childhood memories, but this sequel left me feeling really disappointed. The plot was boring, the script was awkward, and the new characters didn't add anything. It felt like a bunch of cute moments thrown together instead of a real movie. And they seemed to have tried really hard to make a real ending to the whole series, with all the old villains showing up, which was kind of funny, but it was one of the only few good things.

fu3ianJuly 22, 2024This is the worst one in the series. It's like the writers were just scraping the bottom of the barrel. The story is a mess, the plot is all over the place, and the characters and short clips feel like they were just thrown together to keep people interested. There's no big moment, the bad guy is boring, the characters don't change, and even the superhero Minions lose their charm. And that final prison choir scene? It's like they're just making fun of us. Maybe it's time to let this floundering franchise go.

Bruce_HartmanJuly 22, 2024I'd give it a solid 9 out of 10 because this series consistently puts a smile on my face. After all these years, the visuals still hold up pretty well and are totally accessible for everyone. Sure, the villains might not be as menacing as before, and the plot points feel a little disjointed, but it's cool to see Gru moving on and adapting, while the future seems like it might belong to Gru Jr. and Poppy. And that Easter egg? It's like a sneak peek into the exciting adventures the series has in store for us, which is pretty cool.

Charity_WalkerJuly 22, 2024This sequel is basically just a rehash of the first movie with a little superhero flair. The bad guy is not well fleshed out, and the Minions go from cute to creepy after their change. The choir at the prison at the end feels like a pointless addition. The whole series has gotten so boring that even the loud parts make people yawn. Maybe it is time to wrap it up.

Nelson_SimmonsJuly 22, 2024
Nelson_SimmonsJuly 22, 2024This movie feels really slapdash like Illumination Entertainment just threw together some clips they thought the average audience would like and forced them into a movie. The main storyline is unclear, and the jokes just don't land. Even though all the villains from the series, even the ones from the Minions movies, pop up at the end, the movie couldn't be saved. I don't wanna put it like that, but I'm thankful this movie is the last one in the series.

José -SusuJuly 22, 2024I've watched the first 20 episodes, and as a way to promote the game "Super Dragon Ball Heroes World Mission," this anime is top-tier. It's definitely made to sell, and it's really well done. Each 8-minute episode introduces a new form to keep the fans entertained. But the storytelling isn't the strongest aspect. It's all about the fights, and the backstory is loaded with strange power levels and things that don't make much sense.
