WOW. I'm writing this after just finishing the final episode minutes ago. Truth be told I was never much of a fan of anime but this series has made me rethink that. I should say that when I saw this I had never read any of the material this series is based on. The whole idea-characters/plot/etc were completely new so anyone who's more familiar might feel differently, but I still think many would enjoy this show. Incredibly engaging. Super violent. A ton of shock and downright horrifying at times. It can be very disturbing so needless to say this isn't for the faint of heart. The characters are very intriguing. Especially the villains, which is usually the case. If you decide to watch this just remember one name: SHIRA....This guy gives some of cinema's most dastardly and heinous villains a real run for their money. He's right up there with Joker, Voldemort, Darth Sidious, Amon Goeth, you name it. I never imagined an animated series could be so effectively jarring and entertaining. I highly recommend. "DEATH BY DOG BISCUIT!!!" LOL...you'll see.

I am so glad I came here to read the reviews before watching this movie. As a result I was mentally prepared to sit through something awful, but it wasn't. Okay...every negative comment people have given about this film has some truth to it. There are cringey moments. There is some bad acting, mostly from the guy playing "Utah", the lead. He manages to make Keanu Reeves's perfomance in the original look Oscar worthy. The plot is very far fetched, but so is every super hero movie. There are pretty awkward transitions throughout the film. HOWEVER, the film is cinematically BEAUTIFUL. The actor playing "Bodie", the main antagonist and in my opinion the most important character in the story, did a wonderful job. You're meant to fall in love with his character and the actor really pulls that off. The extreme sports scenes were amazing and the ideals espoused by Bodie and his gang were beautiful. The film is flawed, to be sure, but it is not boring. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. If you were lucky enough to come here to the reviews before seeing the movie, hopefully you'll end up enjoying yourself as well. "See you soon."

I would not be surprised if this goes down in history as the "Greatest Videogame of the 21st Century". One word of caution: If you have things you need to get done. STAY AWAY

Beautiful Film!! Valorie Taylor is truly inspiring! Makes me want to go diving with sharks! A great story about an Australian photographer/spear fishing champion/conservationist couple and their many underwater adventures studying and learning about sharks. But this film also demonstrates just how much of an impact Valorie Taylor and her late husband Ron Taylor had on the world and the way we look at sharks today. If you have a love/passion/interest for sharks this movie is definitely for you!

I have read the negative opinions of Marlon Brando's performance in this film by both professional and audience critics, and I have to say that I was SHOCKED by how GOOD Brando was because of it. I expected him to be terrible in this film but he was quite the opposite. So many people complained about Brando's lack of discipline in his performance and how he seems to mix and shake things up with his character when it doesn't seem necessary (like when he changes accents for example). Many people thought he went overboard. Just to make it clear: Brando is playing a very eccentric character, which will call for unexpected and unpredictable and sometimes seemingly offbeat behavior-that's what ECCENTRIC IS!!! There are also reasons for why he does some of the weird things that he does. SPOILER ALERT! He changes his accent from Irish to American Midwest country when meeting Randy Quaid's character to gain his trust, by somewhat mirroring his personality. He dresses like an old Granny near the end because after all of the extreme actions he has taken he probably figures the people he's hunting will be expecting him-so he adopts a very simple disguise(literally nothing more than a bonnet and shawl but it does the trick). My advice to you is to give this movie a chance. Ignore the negative reviews and also ignore mine. Watch the movie with an open mind and try to let go of any kind of expectations.
