« Rien n’est écrit d’avance ».

Le « film » se présente comme une grosse fin de saison qui aurait été rapidement rafistolée en fin de série à l’approche de l’annulation. 

Beaucoup trop long (surtout compris de flashbacks), beaucoup trop de personnages (de mémoire, je pourrais nommer moins du tiers) et pas assez de revirements ou de surprises. 

Le film se veut une grande conclusion mais, au final, la porte semble encore un peu trop ouverte pour pleinement me satisfaire. Au moins, No Time To Die, avec des défauts similaires (incluant la mort d’un personnage racisé important) mettait un point final à l’histoire et aux personnages (même si c’était parfois maladroit). 

Au niveau des points positifs, il faut avouer que les deux gros setpieces (sous-marin englouti et avions) sont impressionnants et que l’idée d’offrir une finale à la franchise est bienvenue. 

Comme Dead Reckoning, peut-être que mon opinion changera avec un 2e visionnement.

Big fan of adventure movies (and games).

This one’s not great.

John Krasinski tries his best Indiana Jones/Nathan Drake impersonation and it doesn’t work. 

Nathalie Portman is in Thor 1 and 2 mode, doing the job, that’s it. 

The script is full of cliches (divorce, dead dad, etc.) and is not exciting or funny. The side characters (there’s a lot) are not developped at all. 

At least, the movie is well directed and has a nice score. Also, the real life locations (and some of the sets) looked great. 

The third act is when the film started to be fun and exciting. Better late than never.

The actual fountain was also interesting.

Great horror imagery and a cool monster but a thin script and no character development or real first act. 
The movie tries to be emotional in the last scene but it doesn’t work.

Le premier volet était l’une des rares adaptations meilleures que le roman d’origine. 

Cette suite tardive m’intéressait beaucoup mais c’est une grosse déception.

Premièrement, il y a beaucoup trop de personnages et la plupart sont sous-développés ou carrément inutiles. Une mort « surprenante » survient vers le milieu du film et la plupart des personnages semblent complètement s’en foutre, ce qui n’aide pas la tension. Aussi, le script est plus « humoristique » mais jamais vraiment drôle ou intéressant. Il y a une twist très « soap » vers la fin mais elle n’est jamais exploitée à son plein potentiel. 

En plus, la fin préfère « teaser » une autre suite inutile plutôt que de clore les intrigues.

I think this franchise gave me OCD as a child. 

I love these films. They are « smartly dumb » and dumb fun. 

This installment is no exception.

The bloodlines aspect in an interesting way to move this franchise forward, even if it’s not by much.

We all Know How each movie is gonna play out and it’s part of the fun. 

The opening is a bit différent than usual and a welcome addition. 

The kills are great and the family dynamic is suprisingly touching. 

In IMAX, it looked great.

A fun and well-written comedy with good actors. I wish there were more scenes with Dewayne Perkins.

As a fan of the book, it’s not as great as it could have been.

The first half is not very good. It’s very messy and relies too much on horror cliches. 

The movie really comes alive in the second half with the big twist. Then it starts to be fun, suspenseful and gory. 

The actors are okay, no one really stands out. Same goes for the kills, except maybe one or two that are funny and gory.

Like the book, I enjoyed the overall message but the movie could’ve flesh more things out. 

In conclusion, it’s a fun time but not much else. 

Bonus points for the queer romance.

Watched on Sunday May 4, 2025.

Un film du MCU vraiment surprenant et intéressant. Les thèmes de l’anxiété et de la dépression sont bien traités et le scénario évite d’être trop lourd ou enfantin. On évite pas les blagues faciles ou les clichés mais c’est beaucoup mieux que dans la plupart des films de la franchise. Le 3e acte est aussi surprenant et vraiment bien pensé. Tous les acteurs sont très bons et, n’étant pas fan des personnages au départ, je les aime maintenant beaucoup. 

Intrigué par la suite des choses.

P.S. : les deux scènes post-génériques sont intéressantes, une humoristique et une vient annoncer une évidence de belle manière.

As a teenager, I would have loved this movie.

As a fan of the game, it was an interesting way to tell a story in that world.

As a cinéphile, it was a fun but generic horror movie with hot actors and great practical effects and gore. 

Overall, it’s more Uncharted (2022) than The Last of Us.

Great fight scenes but the rest is so mediocre that it’s hard to recommend.

The central love story doesn’t work and the tone is weird and all over the place. 

At least, the celebrity cameo is quick and fun.

I connected deeply with this film and loved every second of it. 

The cast was great and their chemistry with each other was fantastic. I wish I would be friends and hang out with them. They all felt real and believable. 

The script was also really well done. The emotional scenes and the humor were always on point. 

Bonus points for Bowen Yang shirtless and the Pe Amidala reference.

Like Death of a Unicorn, great concept but the humor doesn’t work most of the time. 

Also, weird obsession with Fred Durst. 

I think that the only good thing about this movie is the death scenes that are kind of fun. The actors and the soundtrack also aren’t bad.

Un magnifique film d’animation sans dialogues. 

Le seul “défaut “ serait l’abondance de marques/placement de produits, que ce soit intentionnel ou pas.

Un chef-d’œuvre incroyable qui offre une vision magnifique de la musique et de son histoire et terrifiante des vampires. 

J’ai rarement ressenti autant d’émotions autour d’un film et certaines séquences vivront longtemps dans mon esprit. 

P.S. : les deux scènes post-génériques valent amplement l’attente. La première est un bel épilogue et la deuxième laisse sur une bonne note.

Glad that the trailers and the marketing didn’t spoil This amazing movie. 

The Gorge (the movie and the actual place) looks amazing and the creature design is fantastic. The actions scenes and the soundtrack are great.

The only downside is the generic vilain and the ok romance. 

Wish I saw it on the big screen.

Déçu de cette comédie d’horreur qui dégageait une ambiance début 2000 un peu désagréable (« gay panic », grossophobie, jokes de masturbations, etc. ). Le film va aussi beaucoup trop vite et ne développe presque rien. La fin est très expédiée. 

Par contre, la bande-sonore et les nombreux effets spéciaux (gore, maquillages, etc.) sont très réussis.

Opening credits reminded me of The Final Destination and Final Destination 5 (3D style).

La prémisse est exceptionnelle et entraîne des questionnements fascinants.

Le scénario n’est pas parfait mais il développe bien les personnages et les thématiques. La fin règle les choses un peu facilement par contre.

Les acteurs sont tous très bons et la réalisation est compétente, sans être exceptionnelle.

Belle découverte.

Pas un grand fan de la BD mais j'aimais bien l'univers décalé et les personnages weirds.

À mon avis, le film ne fonctionne pas du tout. En effet, il lui manque le côté excessif de la BD qui ne fonctionnait pas toujours mais lui donnait de la personnalité. Le film tente une approche plus "down to Earth" mais cela rend le récit moins fort et mémorable. Les ajouts à l'histoire de la BD sont intéressants mais le film aurait pu aller plus loin avec ceux-ci.

Un autre gros aspect négatif est l'humour qui ne fonctionne pas du tout. En effet, le film reprend plusieurs gags de la BD mais oublie d'y ajouter de l'énergie ou fait de nouvelles blagues mais ne va pas assez loin dans l'absurde.

Au niveau des acteurs, Fabien Cloutier semble jouer son propre rôle mais Pier-Luc Funk, Anne-Elisabeth Bossé et Chantal Fontaine se débrouillent bien.

Une grosse déception.

Interesting premise but the movie doesn’t go far enough into the humor, the horror or the critique. 

The actors are great (in other things) but the script is not funny or insightful. The father-daughter story is very cliche and the « wealthy » characters are obnoxious and badly written. 

The movie works best as a » Jurassic Park wannabe » because it’s when it is the most entertaining. 

The kills and the effects are good but one death is a bit too mean. 

The score is also great.

Interesting premise but the movie doesn’t do anything revolutionnary or captivating with it. The characters are cliche and not very interesting. The third act goes way too fast and the movie ends when it could have explored something interesting. The score is great but seems out of place. Also, the movie had the opportunity to be very scary but doesn’t go all the way there.

If Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving was a Tubi original.

Fun slasher with interesting ideas. The actors aren’t great and the opening is a bit weak but the third act is good and the ending was original. 

Most kills weren’t great but the killer’s outfit looked good.

Au lieu de faire la critique de ce mauvais film interminable, je préfère faire des suggestions pertinentes :

Si vous voulez une œuvre puissante et pertinente sur la violence conjugale, je conseille Le monstre d’Ingrid Falaise (livre et adaptation télé).

Sinon, il y a L’amour et les forêts (livre et adaptation film) qui semble aussi pertinent. 

Si vous voulez un drame romantique, les options sont presque illimitées. 

Dans tous les cas, vous rencontrerez des personnages mieux écrits et interprétés et un script plus développé.

Fun fantasy action-adventure. The script isn’t great and a bit confusing but the effects are good and the movie has more personnality than most streaming originals.

Very good but not great. 

The premise is amazing but I think the movie could’ve gone further in exploring the themes of capitalism and colonialism and developping the characters. The ending was good but some plot points felt a bit rushed.

The actors were great, especially Robert Pattinson and the visuals were excellent.

My favorite type of movie, when you never know where it’s going.

Dylan O’Brien is excellent and the whole cast is great. 

The script is smart and the ending was powerful.

Une histoire intéressant mais pas captivante racontée avec une animation moyenne et un rythme beaucoup trop lent. 

Mention spéciale à l’excellent doublage québécois et au combat final impressionnant.

Like many, I grew up with the Looney Tunes. I watching Back in Action a lot. But, with time (and the absence of new theatrical movies), I fell a bit out of it.

This movie reawakened my love with these characters. 

It’s smart, it’s funny, it’s stupid. It was amazing. 

The animation was wonderful and the jokes were funny. The script has also a lot of heart and a nice twist toward the end.

Farmer Jim and Petunia were highlights. 

See it on the big screen and with a crowd, it’s worth it. 

#saveCoyotevsAcme

Tries to be too many (better) movies to be memorable. It's watchable but the voice acting is meh and the story is a lot of copy-paste.

As a Snow White story, it's really bad because it's too focused on being 20 other stories.

On the positive side, the animation looks good and the moral is better than expected.

Fun queer horror comedy with a great cast.

I think it's my favorite version of the story (so far). Lily Collins is charming and Julia Roberts is amazing. The ing cast is also really fun and the "dwarves" are great characters that we learn to know and love. The sets look like sets but it feels more real than most fantasy movies nowadays. The costumes are somptuous and the Bollywood style musical number at the end is great. An adaptation that knows what to keep and change about the original story.

More adult than most Snow White story. Not terrifying but has good horror imagery and interesting reimagining of classic characters.

Like your weird uncle playing with his toys in front of you. 

I’ve read the short story and it’s quite faithful. 

The movie has a unique style and some fun sequences but the script was a bit generic and the humor fell flat most of the time. It felt like there were also many missed opportunities to develop the side characters.

Theo James is too handsome to play « normal people » and the most interesting cast member (Tatiana Maslany and Elijah Wood were barely in it.

The deaths were gory but felt fake and boring most of the time. Maybe because they were too quick and comedic. 

Also, the third act had weird Batman vibes. 

Still, the movie has a personnality, which is better than many Stephen King adaptations.

As a cat owner and Stray (the video game) lover, Flow is a masterpiece. The animation is gorgeous and the ending was powerful.

Great first and second act. There's an ambiance and a mystery that I really liked. The mix of religion and pop culture was fascinating and Hugh Grant was amazing. As usual, Sophie Thatcher is incredible.

But, the last act is disappointing. What was a great movie about faith turns into a predictable thriller with a safe conclusion. The screenwriters try to explain everything and the mystery is completely gone.

Before Final Reckoning.

Was not a fan on my first watch but my second watch made me love this movie so much more.

The action scenes and the score are phenomenal. The set-pieces are memorable and lengthy (in a good way). The score has an energy that you can't find anywhere else.

However, I'm still not a fan of the screenplay, even if a think it's better than I initially thought. The retconning ("Rectkonning", haha) with the collegue dying during the first movie is not great but I get why it's there. It's still a part one (even with the name change) so not 100% things are resolved, which is a bit frustrating. Maybe part two will wrap things up nicely.

Hayley Atwell is great and her character is one of the best addition in the franchise. Pom Klementieff's character is also really fun.

Excited for Part 2 but I sincerely hope it's the last one.

I’ve read a lot of reviews of This film in the last few days and my take won’t be much different than the others. It’s not a great film. It tries to do a lot and nothing is really explored. I loved Eternals and liked The Incredible Hulk but choosing to continue those storylines in a Captain America movie is not the best idea. It would have Been better to have proper sequels and leave room for Captain America to have his own story. The last scene with Joaquin and all the scenes with Isaiah show promises. The basic plot could have been exciting but the marketing departement didn’t seem to trust the movie and there were no reveal or shocking moment.

Not a fan of the humor and the action scenes felt uninspired. They could have done something more with the Celestial but the scene felt like a « we have to show that we acknowledge that » more than anything.

Beside all that, I was never bored, just disapointed.

Plus, the end credit scene was awful. Teasing everything and nothing at the same time. Much like the movie.

First Time Watch :

Fine thriller. Maybe lacking a bit of energy. The actors were good. Matt Damon was really cute at this time. Excited for the sequels.

I was not a fan of the graphic novel but I love the concept and was excited about the project.

For the first hour, i saw many pages from the book coming to life and I couldn't care less. Everything felt very robotic, "been there, done that" and was lacking focus.

But, weirdly, I was very moved and emotional in the last 30 minutes. I felt like the characters were starting to feel real. Robin Wright is a great actress and the arc of her character really connected with me.

In need of a rewatch.

Paddington is the hero we need and deserve in these dark times. This franchise has so much heart.

Bonus points for the absence of love story between the kids and Antonio Banderas in drag.

« For Roz »

The type of movies that make you fall in love with the medium. It has so much heart and you can see the ion on every frame.

Gorgeous visuals and great soundtrack but… that’s it. The idea of telling a real life story with Lego is amazing but it didn’t connect with me. There’s fun cameos and interviews but it’s a « work hard and you will succeed story ». Not a lot of conflict and drama. The movie seems afraid to go dark. Because of that, it seems to be too much on the surface.

This movie has everything : brutal kills, a good mystery, great humor, a sexy and competent cast, a cute romance, even a clothes changing montage. It’s awesome. A new favorite for Valentine’s day.

Je n'ai jamais été fan de la pièce originale mais j'étais vraiment intéressé par l'aspect musicale et j'adore la distribution. Cependant, le film est une grosse déception. Visuellement, c'est très beau et coloré mais les numéros musicaux sont très robotiques et manquent de mordant. Les chansons sont moyennes et seulement une ou deux sont mémorables. Le script est trop fidèle à la pièce de Tremblay et ajoute peu de nouveautés à un texte que tout le monde connait. Les actrices font ce qu'elles peuvent mais semblent davantage jouer pour le public dans la salle que pour la caméra.

Saw it at an advanced screening. There’s a fun little Bad Guys short before the film. The movie itself was fine. The animation is gorgeous and there’s some funny visual gags. The story is not great but it’s faithful to the source material.

J’étais très intrigué par ce film. J’aime beaucoup le casting et la prémisse semblait prometteuse. Cependant, le résultat est décevant. Le film ne semble assumer aucun genre en particulier et les acteurs semblent perdus dans des personnages peu intéressants. La comédie fonctionne parfois mais aurait pu être tellement plus drôle et pertinente. Le côté horreur/mystère est intrigant mais peu développé. J’aime beaucoup la dernière scène cependant.

Fascinating movie about awful people doing awful things. A lot was said about the excellent cast but the directing and the script are also very smart and impressive. Good soundtrack.

An unnecessary remake that is "too Hollywood" to be as impactful as the original. The cold and the dread is lost to beautiful landscapes and boring characters that are too similar to the originals. James McAvoy is good but his character is too over-the-top to be believable. The famous "catchphrase" : "because you let use" lose all meaning because it doesn't feel earned. It's a similar thing to the "because you were home" of The Strangers Chapter One. It feels like they have to say the line, nothing more. The only big changes happen in the last 40 minutes which is just a slasher/home invasion climax. Maybe it was the reason to do this remake, to change the outcome, but it's not enough to justify it. I never liked the last scene of the original so I think it's the only thing they improved.

Excellent script and performances. Very Human and emotionnal. Not sure about the Classical music as soundtrack for This story though.
