Movies Discussion Thread V1: Ratings and Opinions

Had a chance to watch no way home recently and was really disappointed - perhaps its one of the worst super super hero movies to have ever been made. Even though it was hyped to death, its story had little to no depth and the acting was absolutely subpar. And why was everyone cracking some stupid joke every few minutes?

And wth does scooby doo this $hit even mean? I wonder why almost every who has watched it speaks so highly of it-even reputable media outlets, youtubers etc have awarded it glowing 5 star rated reviews which it absolutely doesn't deserve. Maybe the marvel team had paid them off really well to write highly favourable reviews!

Does anyone else feel the same way about the movie?
watched it too similar feelings. stopped watching just after 20 mins.

I too feel the new spider man movie was very boring .
Maybe I'm getting old ( I grew up watching Spiderman cartoons on Doordarshan and comics in the vacations .)
I gave it a 4/10 in IMDb . Generous by my standards .

Spiderman used to come on Doordarshan? I remember Star Plus but never on Doordarshan. When was this?

on DD Metro IIRC. Superman used to be broadcast as well.
Ah yes. Completely forgot about DD Metro. Those days it was considered at par with cable TV channels, at least I thought so. I think I might have seen Spiderman on it too. I think they also had some Disney cartoons.

There were two renditions of spiderman cartoon, the old one and the. 1994 one. The 1994 one still holds up today in terms of plot, music.
My favourite episodes were the manspider-punisher ones.

the old spider man cartoons from '94 still hold up extremely well even to this day-its characterization of spider man/peter parker and his array of classic villains is perhaps the most definitive out of all of their portrayals that have been made in films,tv etc in recent times.

Movies like no way home are nowhere close to it in terms of its story or acting -i think that tom holland fellow is a total misfit as spider man. He looks like a prematurely old bloke who's desperately trying to portray an individual in his early teens and failing miserably at it. Even more annoying is the character of aunt may and that african american girl with a weird name called zendaya or something whose depiction of MJ is quite abysmal tbh.

sure, clearly neglecting everyone elses death and only showing deaths of hindus seems a bit too out of hand taking the sheep further more violent and extremist
u could show a historical event with almost complete truth or showing parts of it , but only showing one section and rushing politicians(i wouldnt say they are mentally fit enough to be called as politicians, they are mere puppets) inside theatres to give speeches later after the movie inciting violence and hate is on a whole other level !

Agreed. Discuss the movie objectively and try not to bring politics about it here. That road only leads to butthurt-ery and a bad day for everyone.
