Too many plot holes. Could not identify itself as whether it is a true horror, or mystery or comedy. Very confused writing and directing. Offends every genre. Acting is poor. Pretty much a waste of time, go watch something else. Watch What We Do in the Shadows if you respect what Vampires really are.

Not Game of the Year. Game of the Decade.

I honestly wish for DLC with more courses I will buy it in an instant. Game is phenomenal and I can't really ask for more as I've been waiting for a sequel since the N64, even having dreams about it once a couple of years. I really enjoy the unexpected discoveries, the excitement of finding new pokemon and watching them interact. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star is because after completing everything, replayability is low and it isn't a complex game. More complex interactions and pokemon behaviour and randomness or harder to solve stages should be considered in future titles or DLC. My wife who has never played video games absolutely loves it, it isn't challenging and we explore together. I reccomend playing this with a younger sibling or kid as their youthful curiosity is what highlights the beauty of the Pokemon Snap series.

Lost potential yet again. Cole single handedly ruined the film for me, writers take note, you never introduce a new character into establish lore and expect fans to receive it well, absolutely could not care less for that character. The core Earth-realm staples were fantastically casted with only issues pertaining to some costume design. Characters like Raiden and Liu Kang could have had more direction to really capture their characters. Raiden had zero memorability or authoritative presence, and it was amazing seeing Liu Kang but the more I saw him the more his character weakened, if they had put as much effort into each Character's backstory and trials and tribulations as Scorpions it would have made for some great cinema. Scorpion's and Sub-Zeros backstory and rivalry carried the movie emotionally and Kung Lao's fatality was hands down the best show of pure gratuitous violence that defines the series, everything else after was mediocre. The jump back and forwards of fights is the dumbest editing choice I've ever seen and made everything feel like a mess, very anti-climatic. To summarise, it felt rushed and not well planned out in terms of character development and time progression as if the source material was ignored for ambitious originality and squished because of time constraints. So much potential if it went in the write hands of people who respect the source material and respect for consistent quality throughout.
