Mr. Who 919 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I think she was good in Wolf of Wall Street and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and I thought she wasn't very good in Suicide Squad but that maybe isn't her fault. Don't think I've seen her in anything else but generally I'd say she's pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen it, but in terms of relative to the pedigree of its talent in front of and behind the camera, it could be considered one of the worst reviewed movies in recent history.

People here look down at IMDb scores but I find it fairly reliable. If a movie gets, let's say, a 4/10, I rarely disagree with that and claim it a great movie. I find it very handy that Prime shows you the IMDb score for all of their movies. Of course, if you find yourself constantly disagreeing, then it isn't a useful tool.

I can't think of a single time I've ever looked up a film's IMDB score I decide what movies to watch based on trailers, worth of mouth, and/or the previous works of the people involved. That's it! I'm always surprised that people in 2023 care about what critics think, or what any particular website's aggregation of data totals up to, or anything like that. Maybe back in the 90s when you had to spend money to see a new movie in the cinema every time and didn't want to waste money on a film you didn't like when you could have seen a better one, sure, that was a different time. But everything is just a few clicks of my remote away now. If I see a movie and it wasn't that great, I don't really care that I spent 2 hours watching it instead of some other movie >shrug< That's life!

rough cut 1,714 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 I use IMDb as a reference all the time. I like getting upset over having dissimilar opinions with people I don’t know. Jokes aside, I like to read what people think. I think it’s enlightening, even if I don’t agree. Also, I like to watch movies that aren’t in the mainstream, and then it’s a great help to look up a movie for a point of reference. <5 I usually won’t watch it. 5-7 I will try to read some reviews and see if it’s a movie I might like, since any grade that is 5-7 can mean anything from “it’s very bad” to “it’s very good”. >7 I’ll usually give it a try.

Edmilson 7,469 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Quote Francis Ford Coppola’s latest movie, the sci-fi-tinged Megalopolis, has descended into chaos, according to multiple sources. The movie, currently halfway through shooting in Atlanta, has in the last week lost key creative talent including its production designer and supervising art director. That’s on top of losing the entire visual effects team in the first part of December. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/francis-ford-coppolas-megalopolis-in-peril-1235284875/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldfinger 59 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Megalopolis has been something Coppola has been trying to make for decades and will probably be his final film. Its gone through so many hurdles to get made, and now going through his patented very troubled production as well. Either it will become a classic and have an all-time great deliver one last masterpiece, or will serve as another forgotten film by a director who hasn't had a memorable film in decades. I hope its good, but the fact that even Coppola himself cannot tell what the movie is about is not a good sign. Bayesian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
