Just got home...I usually don't walk out of movies early but this one I did. Reminded me of a Netflix movie in a way...u know, that type of generic action-movie production they churn out over and over. And just overall boring as hell. Wayyyy too much of the bitter romance angle. And, seriously, if you seen all of the numerous different previews, you've seen every single joke. I didn't hear the audience laugh even once...though that could be attributed to the whole six people we had in there. And one of those people left before I did! This movie will be a flop.
I didn't watch it? Pffft! Care to put your money where your mouth is? I can prove it via my bank transactions. Let me guess, no, right?
"Great" reviews? Pffft! A 73 Metascore...while Green Dot, just barely. I agree with The Guardianβs Peter Bradshaw: "The majority of the movie a long and essentially plotless extravaganza of crashes, bangs, jumps, punches and PAEs (Pointless Action Explosions).β Exactly.
Are you meaning to tell me you actually watched that pile of garbage and came out impressed?! Wow.
Here's just a few of my issues with it: 1) I can't think of one great line or stunt that wasn't already in the trailers...can you? 2) It seems as if Gosling wanted Blunt romantically but stopped acting because of a back injury that...checks notes...didn't seem to be injured whatsoever. He seemingly had no side effects and jumped right back into action just because he thought Blunt wanted him on set. If he wanted her so bad that he was willing to drop everything for this movie...why didn't he simply call her up?! He was the one ghosting her for crying out loud! And Blunt still wanted Gosling but was just sore at him for Ghosting her. So...You know how this could quickly get rectified? If they simply go out on another date! Why all the banter?! If you both like each other, which you obviously do, spare your friends and colleagues the drama and just go out! 3) Wasn't the bantering "the love between the alien and human in the script" bit they kept doing a little too long and forced?? They started out with a never-ending 15 minutes of this early in the movie and really never let up. That bit was tiring by the middle of the movie.
It was a formulaic PG-13 action movie with way too much romance that nobody cared about and could easily solve. I didn't even see the ending and I'm 100% sure that they got back together...was too simple, made for the masses, and not enough high stakes.
Ok, I'll get to the bottom of this. Can you please provide banking details including dates, times, $$ amounts, and location as proof you saw this movie? Also if you can tell me your seat and aisle number that also would help as well as any receipts from the concession stands
You are not the OP who is in question on whether or not they saw this movie. I am still waiting for banking details as well as the theaters location so I can confirm
If you're interested, we'll bet. I'll provide proof of my banking transaction and ticket stub to a independent arbitrator. I'll give him $10,000 of my money. You give him $5,000 of your money to hold. The arbitrator then decides who was correct and doles out the money appropriately.
Let me guess...you're not interested, right? You just like talking shit then, right?
