Movies Discussion Thread V1: Ratings and Opinions

Saw Lights Out (2016). Finally, after a long time, watched a horror movie which was actually scary. Well, mostly jump scares but none seem out of place given the context of the film. Acting is pretty decent. In fact, the lead actress Teresa Palmer was pretty good. There's not much as far as the story is concerned but this movie doesn't really need a convoluted plot. This is a simple straightforward horror film with more than a few genuine scares that will keep you on the edge of your seats right upto the end.

3D - 9/10 - Really well done, complete effect throughout the movie
Story, Screenplay, Direction - 6/10 - Screenplay of conveneince, lots of plotholes, nothing new

same here. except story/plot part is 5/10. strange just did Veni Vidi Vici there,no story, no feelings or nothing. other characters looked just too shallow.

7.5/10 for fun time only.

Batman:The Assault on Arkham (2014) : Good movie. US govt official calls for criminals,Suicide Squad, to get to one Criminal "Riddler" in Arkham Asylum. But as usual, things doesn't go as per plans as no one trust each other.
My ratings would be 7.5/10.
PS: Rating is Compared to other batman animated movies. But definitely a must watch for Batman's fans

The blackcoat's daughter - Atmosphere horror at it's best! Watched a good movie after very long time. It is very slow, so better watch it if you are patient enough.

Light's Out 6/10

Cheap thrills.
Solely dependent on jump scares. Lacks some basic horror movie logics.

Since I had no knowledge of Dr.Strange's character from comics(i just knew there is a character in comics), I liked the movie. CGI was great, Cumberbatch was great so I was quite satisfied until now. Seeing so many low ratings here I want to know where did the movie fall short?

No. I have never read it before. There were a lot of good actors, dialogues, cgi etc. But the story was predictable and ordinary. That's my take on it. The mid credit scene was interesting though.

Cumberbatch and the VFX were the only positive. Story was predictable and boring, Ancient One's role was not meaty enough and the villain was so meh.

I was not bored actually. May be I was carried away by CGI and Cumberbatch. Story wise, Since I was coming across this kind of whole stroy/plot(whatever is the correct word) very first time, I liked it. Same reason I liked all the Avengers movies.

I don't think that most people are saying it's bad. It was just ordinary. I found avengers more entertaining.
