I was reallly looking forward to this game, but I’ve been stuck in the early game for about 2 hours trying a section over and over again. It’s a mini boss - rush type thing. But the part that takes the most time is a very difficult platforming section right before that. You don’t have any upgrades at this point. Maybe I’m missing something but there’s no way you can have an extra mask at this point. Every time you lose the boss rush, you have to platform back, which takes about five or 10 minutes, depending on how quick you are. Oh and the closest save is on the other side of the shitty platforming. It’s just really shitty game design. The game punishes the player for not being good enough, at a point so early in the game it’s ridiculous that anybody would be this skilled. And if the point was to teach the player more advanced combat, then why would they put a giant difficult platforming section right before this mini Boss rush that they expected players to lose over and over? It’s just punishing for no reason… I was a big fan of hollow knight, but this is just brutal. Hollow knight was difficult but the brutality of it was mostly optional. And you could definitely level up your character before getting to the really hard stuff.This is just ass. Team Cherry the rest of this game might be good but I’m starting to think I’ll never see it. I’ll give it another couple of hours but after that I’m moving on and demanding a refund.

28 years later was a huge disappointment. Spoilers ahead. The movie started out strong, setting the stage for some sort of cult Leader by showing a scene with a kid whose father was a priest who welcomed the virus, saying it was their salvation. Then cut to an island and a bunch of new characters and the whole time I’m wondering. “ Where is this young religious kid who seems like he’s a cult leader?” And a bunch of things happen, we get introduced to this community on an island. They have strict rules about if you get lost while visiting the mainland then no one comes to rescue you. There’s a sick mom, and a dad who’s a little aloof and a liar. The dad and the son run into some new obstacles, which is the fact that the zombies seem to be evolving, or at least some of them get stronger and smarter. Some zombies are super fat because they eat worms all day? Then the son takes the mom to a doctor because he wants to save her, and I thought for sure they were gonna run into the cult leader kid who had grown up. But instead they run into a pregnant zombie? And she gives birth to a normal baby? So did the zombies have sex or did a regular human have sex with a zombie or did she get ZOMBIFIED while she was pregnant? All unclear. Also, the zombie has a very human moment where she is holding hands with the mom as she’s giving birth, but as soon as the baby is out, she immediately tries to eat the mother. And I’m just wondering, what was the point of all of this anyways? Basically, there are a lot of moments in this film that seem to be leading somewhere, to a thickening plot, but ultimately none of them lead anywhere. Nothing else happens with the zombie baby Who’s not a zombie. The mom gets voluntarily killed by the Doctor, Who tells the son to put her skull on a big pile of skulls. Kind of weird and gross. Then the kid goes and drops the baby back off at his island and goes off into the wilderness on the mainland. Then at the very end of the film, we run into the young religious kid who’s dressed in really clean golf attire and is leading a group of weird ninja people with the same hair as him. That was an interesting choice, I think if this was a standalone film, with that choice I would be excited to see the sequel, but this movie was just so boring, and had a lot to live up to with the first two films - on a budget that was a lot bigger! and really, the plot basically went nowhere. This could have easily been an episode of black mirror, which would have been more entertaining, and would have told a better story in a smaller amount of time. The Alpha zombies had a lot of potential, but they really did nothing with them. The zombie baby that wasn’t a zombie had a lot of potential, but they did nothing with it! They were just things happening because they were things happening. It was truly a movie of “ this happens, then this happens, then this happens, and then what if this happens?” Which is about the most boring type of movie to watch. Love Ralph Fiennes but one good actor does not a movie make. Blegh. Danny Boyle has killed it in the past with movies like “sunshine,” I’m just disappointed with his latest film. My ass is chopped.

I mean the plot that every other bad thing that happened to Bond in the other movies was part of this one organizations plan to “make Bond unhappy because he made their boss unhappy when they were brothers” is pretty silly. Although that’s exactly what’s happening with Trump’s presidency so maybe more realistic than I’d believe. Still, villain motivations in the movie are lacking and the fact that bond takes down a helicopter with a tiny handgun is hilarious. Effects were great though and Lea Seydoux is an amazing actor.

Really boring story, strange that a story that centers on a man from an African village is still about a white man, and compared to every other fighter in the film he is scrawny and unimpressive. Cinematography did nothing to convey the emotions of each character. Really just a bust all around, very disappointing film.

Honestly I’m three episodes in and a show about a literal god of mischief takes place in an office space and a supermarket. It’s just not interesting at all. Dialogue moves the story nowhere, characters aren’t interesting. I’m curious where their budget went because it’s not towards writing, effects, or the set… maybe just paying Tom Hiddleston and Owen Wilson? Very boring show so far, you’d think the first few episodes would want to wow the audience but nope.
