This movie doesn't know what it wants to be. It gets very serious, with serious music and then it tries to be funny. It should be a funnier movie, it's not. It's actually very similar in tone to the first movie so hats off to that. There's no suspense, everyone after the opening act will obviously survive and the Avengers style ending is such a disappointment (mcguffin saves the day right before every dies). But the biggest issue this movie has is the completely unnecessary love triangle that weighs the movie down so much. It's a movie about tornadoes, nothing more nothing less, leave the love triangles out of it

This movie is ridiculous. But so worth a watch. It's dreadfully dumb, almost offensive in its premise. Imagine Jaws 3, Jaws 4 and Deep Blue Sea mixed together and you'll get close to this. It's ludicrous, but great. It's actually incredibly well made for a B movie. Decent characters and one truly excellent set piece. It takes itself too seriously most of the time but the french aint know for their sense of humour. Just watch it, it's decent

This movie is offensive to the Irish people and should be banned from the country. One minute they're in Bray and then next minute they're at the Cliffs of Moher on the other side of the country. They claim to be staying near the cliffs in Co Clare, yet they're staying in Powerscourt in Wicklow and then the mother wants to fly to Knock airport in Mayo, when Shannon is much closer to the Cliffs. The editing and acting are a joke and im fairly sure there's not an Irish person in the entire movie.

**SPOILER ALERTS** I am conflicted writing this review. On the one hand it is a masterpiece of tv drama and storytelling. On the other its a painful cliched bore that made me nearly throw my TV out the window. Sticking with the former first, its mostly a joy to watch. Sam Elliot and Lamonica Garrett are exceptional and deserve their own prequel show. Sam Elliot in particular steals every scene he is in and is criminally underused. The show should have been about him instead of Elsa, who i will get to shortly. All the other actors are great and there are some really good characters in there. Then theres Elsa. The actress is actually brilliant and fair play to her she absolutely steals the show after a few episodes but my god do they focus too much on her. She has two separate love stories in the space of like 3 episodes, and gets over the death of her first love incredibly quickly. I bought the cowboy love as it seemed genuine but the Indian love was so weird and forced and came out of nowhere. And i dont understand why he would let her got to Oregon and come back all by herself, why didnt her husband go with her to protect her, makes no sense considering how dangerous her return journey would have been since would have been all alone. You could skip Elsa's love story with the Indian and have a much better time watching the show. How the show ends with her death is brilliant and is very emotional as you have been on this journey with her and her parents, and wee useless John who is even more useless in 1923. A show that starts so strong but loses its way in the middle and then recovers brilliant to give you a gut wrenching finish. Addictive, glorious, beautiful TV drama

Let talk about the good stuff first. The acting is top notch, both Ford and Mirren are fantastic and you cant take your eyes off them. Dalton is wonderful sadistic and Flynn plays the role well, albeit their scenes seem to be written by the Game of Thrones writers and feel so out of place. The cinematography is outstanding and they certainly make use of the majestic scenery. Its also just immensely watchable. Now to some criticism. We needed a family tree to figure out whos related to who. If not for wikipedia you wouldnt know James Badge Dale was the son from 1883, no one calls him John and he has maybe 2 lines. I dont understand why youd get an actor of his caliber to play an important character and give him nothing to do. The show has a serious issue with time and how long has passed between each episode and sometimes each scene. Plot lines like the wedding ceremony are completely forgotten after spending so much time on it. Then theres Africa. Admittingly its the most exciting part of the show but thats because it is so unbelievably unrealistic and ridiculous. So much happens to them in such a short amount of time it removes authenticity from a very authentic show. When they're rescued and told theyre being brought to Marseille they are suddenly dropped off in Sicily and run into Alex's old friends which is so insanely unlikely i nearly turned the show off. There is so much forced drama for them. Their relationship is too much, theres no chemistry between the actors and Spencer has so little character development. Too much happens to them on the trip for them to develop as people other than ravage each other every chance they get. It feels like there should have been another 2 episodes as the ending of ep 8 is no more of a cliff hanger than any other episode and nothing has been resolved. There were so many long scenes that could have been removed and replaced with dialogue that explained in one sentence what happened. That being said its top tier tv drama and if you can swallow the cliches, and there are many, then you'll enjoy this

I'll start with the positives. All the acting is fabulous, the cinematography is magnificent, the battles are brilliant and thats about it. The script is absolutory terrible. I have no idea what Napolean's motivations are at any time. The dialogue is so poor, there is no battle tactic talk except for a minute before Waterloo and its just about numbers. You could skip the first hour and it would make no difference to the movie, nothing happens that couldnt have been said with good dialogue. This should have been a 8 part mini series as it would have allowed for more character development. Worst of all, this movie is boring, genuinely boring. I was so relieved when the credits rolled. I love historical dramas, but Alexander was a more entertaining movie than this.

I got a refund off Xbox after 2 hours. The attention to detail is pathetic. Swords don't have sheaths, he slides down ropes without gloves, torch is pulled from nowhere, its bright at night, enemy AI is dreadful, the graphics are from early 2010s. The sword play is so it's impressive they got it passed by executives. It's such a shame the gameplay in these games are so bad because the world they're in are so interesting. Do not buy this game the good reviews are a scam
