No Whammies!!
It's an Allround disaster.

I don't know why people hate that movie so much, I think it's the second best Craig Bond, doing what license to kill attempted to do but failed: showing James Bond in rage mode going rogue.

I think I need to give QoS another chance. I'm starting to hear a lot of people (not just here) saying that its very underrated. I've only seen it when it was in the theater.

My take: Would be a pretty good standalone Bond action flick but its utterly and completely ruined by horrible quick cut editing. Like distractingly bad. I don't think there's 3 seconds the camera goes without cutting..in the entire movie. Headache shyt

I actually don't think it's as bad as people make it out to be. That was just the fashionable thing to complain about at the time, since the novelty of the Bourne movies had worn off and a lot of other movies copied their style. People complained that it was a "James Bourne" movie, even though "In her majesties secret service" had introduced the quick cut technique to action scenes back in the 1960's. The quick cuts also fit the rage theme of the movie. James Bond is not yet the smooth agent that is always in control, he is a hurt and violent individual, driven by anger :yeshrug:

Just my personal opinion. I like the long John wick style takes where you can see what the hells going on. I recently watched QOS and the cuts were worse than I remember. Pet peeve of mine but if you didnt mind it then props

QoS with well shot action would blow all the Sam Mendes Bond movies out of the water. I loathe quick cut shaky cam action and yet there is more enjoyment in watching it bring down every QoS action scene than having to sit through Sam Mendes reminding me why he is the OG most boring director.

X-men apocalypse has one of the greatest of all time comic book opening scenes.... followed by a nonsensical movie.


that movie makes no sense at all

the opening makes no sense at all to what the xmen grew to be as a title at all.
it is a complete moronic cash grab.

anyway the winner of this is the worst movie of all time:

the second Disney star wars movie is trash after the crawl and especially after it shows it does not know how to have an intergalatic spaceship battle at all whatsoever. Then it proceeds to ruin luke Skywalker impromptu.

fukk Disney....
they about to run marvel too watch them.
