Maybe I'm rating this lower because the first two movies set a high bar for both comedy and action. This was the weakest plot of all three deadpool movies and seemed to be the least funny for sure. I agree with other reviewers that some of the jokes just got repeated and some of the humor was very much intended for young children or teenagers, but it was an R-Rated movie, so I'm not sure who they were really trying to target with the jokes. It did still have some funny parts and some of the action was great, especially the fights between Deadpool and Wolverine. I would watch a second time just for the highlights of those two. They did have some great scenes together and Jackman is still great as wolverine!

Great show! I did not read the books and was too young to remember the series with Richard Chamberlin, so I'm not sure how accurate it is to the source material, but this show had me pulled in from episode one all the way to the most resent episode (6). Really good writing and interesting story. Great cast that keeps even the slowest parts interesting. In spite of the lengthy amounts of C.C. required when the characters are speaking Japanese, I am still able to enjoy the great acting of some of the great Japanese characters. I didn't know what to expect when I started watching this but it's so well done that it's the only show I look forward to each week. Every other show I have started in the last couple of years I have given up on due to terrible writing and poor character development. This one does not suffer that problem and is very entertaining, by taking you to a whole other world and time.

I was really looking forward to this show and I'm really disappointed to the point where I can't even finish it. I'm not sure what all the rave reviews are about. I almost gave up after the first episode. It's just not that interesting and none of the cast are very convincing at portraying smart people. I blame the poor writing for that. If you stick with it, it finally gets interesting around half way through the second episode and then it slowly lost my interest again from there. The tone changes constantly and at times it seems like an after school special from a production value standpoint. Someone commented that there is a lot of smoking going on in this show and that is very true. I'm not sure why that is necessary as a "creative choice". If the actors require props to show they are stressed or anxious or whatever, then get better actors. Seems a silly thing to highlight in filming these days considering the youth that are likely watching this. There are far worse problems with this show though. Poor casting, bad writing, slow plot progress. None of the characters are endearing in any way really.

After reading reviews here and on other review sites it's clear there are people on both ends of ideology spectrum submitting reviews that seem to be completely biased and unobjectively responding. I say this because those people saying episode 3 was the worst and most disgusting episode in television history have clearly not watched enough tv. I also say this because those that say this was the best and most beautiful episode in television history are also being completely biased and haven't watched that much tv. I didn't play the game but I watched my son play it because the story was so well done. The HBO team seems to be missing the key elements of what hooked me on the games story so far. For example, the game did a better job of connecting Joel and his daughter and making you care about them in a very short period of time and the TV show seems to have glossed over the impact of her death on Joel. This seems to be a trend I am noticing in Hollywood that writers don't seem to care about writing about the impact of the loss of a significant figure in their life. The game also made a big deal out of the spores and the importance of avoiding them with a respirator. It ramped up the tension to a whole other level and this seems to be missing from the show. The first two episodes were okay, but I found my self wondering if I will care about these characters. There are so many layers this show could have expanded on and explored, but it seems like they are already rushing to an ending in 9 episodes...kind of like game of thrones last season. Back to episode 3. Yes this was a very well told story about humanity, however it was also a very clear "box that needed to be checked" for producers and the director to send a "message of love and acceptance". It completely halted any momentum that the story of Joel was building. This one off episode is what many fans of the Walking Dead hated...filler episodes with a message. Although this episode had it's emotional moments and Nick Offerman was great in it, I truly found it to be boring and would have felt the exact same way if it was a heterosexual couple. The only way that this episode serves any real purpose to the actual story as a whole is if Frank is somehow still alive and going to play a part later.? That, I would be okay with as I'm not a rabid fan of the game and some creative liberty is fine for side characters. With that said producers (and audience reviewers) need to take a step back and realize the following: Fans of the game LOVED the game even with the brief gay story line of Frank and then Ellie (in game 2.) Stop calling fans homophobes if you produce a version of the story that they didn't like. Maybe the majority of people loved the game because it didn't take them into someone else's bedroom and there is nothing wrong with them having that viewpoint. So far I find this show middle of the road and that was after episode 1&2. Episode 3 did nothing to improve that and I was really looking forward to this show. After 6 episodes the biggest thing still missing from that the game nailed, is that story of a parents love for a child. This series has not done a great job of developing the relationship between Joel and Ellie. This series has not convinced me that Joel views Ellie like a daughter or anything close to it.

This is the best Star Wars project after Empire Strikes back and Rogue one IMO. Best part about it...no Jedi's so far, and very few "aliens" LOL! This is a reasonably well written drama that happens to take place in the Star Wars world. It has a more mature story line that draws elements from other science fiction films in a good way. Some great new "worlds" are shown that seem grounded within the story instead of everything just happening in space or some silly "Star Wars" world from previous projects. Some great casting choices have been made here. I hope it continues with good story telling.

Better than the Witcher and Wheel of Time, but that's not saying anything. After 6 episodes in, this is pretty disappointing. I had no problem with the Galadriel warrior vengeance story line people were complaining about, after all, she's young by elf years and has time to mature into the Galadriel we know from Lord of the Rings LOL! I'm okay with the character developing over time. But the rest of the show is so uninteresting even after 6 episodes. I have not made a connection with ANY of the characters and none of them are super likeable. If a movie or TV series can't convince me to root for one of the main characters, it's going to lose me. Galadriel story is okay, but the rest are boring at this point. ZERO character development of any meaning. Some of the actors are great and some are terrible. I'll leave that for you to decide. Some scenes look incredible (Numenor), while others look low budget (ice climbing first episode). Short haired elves...why? Seems a simple piece of cannon that is easy to achieve with good wigs regardless of diversity...game of thrones was done it, whey couldn't this show? Armor always looks plastic. The dialogue seems to be dumbed down for children and it doesn't drive the story or develop the characters very well. There is very little tension built up in this show as it seems very predictable. The best scene this series has come up with so far is the scene between Adar and Galadriel in the barn. I tried to ignore all of the pre-release interviews that clearly signaled this was going to be full of "progressive" ideology and watched with an open mind. I have no problem with diversity in casting, but for actors to say that the diversity in the series will finally bring Tolkien's work to the world is a joke, considering how many copies have already been sold in the world and in how many languages. So far it seems like the series is actually more concerned about sending the "right message" than actually telling a story that draws you in and keeps you interested.
