Babylon
Unrealistic and self-indulgent.
From the OTT, crude scenes and boring, repetitive use of the f-word (its overuse makes it meaningless, in this and many other films), this is an unrealistic (for the period) film.
Agatha and the Midnight Murders
Disappointing
Poor story with unconvincing acting. The modern language (swearing) was inappropriate for the period
Long Shot
Lazily written "comedy"
Disappointed - good story, could have been so much better. Why do so many films, featuring "smart" people, have such a limited vocabulary (lazy writing with overuse of the f-word for "comedy")?
King Arthur: Legend of the Sword
Arthur meets 21st century Eastenders
Arthur meets the 21st century Eastenders. Complete trashing of the story, with inappropriate casting. It's a shame, as the big budget sets looks good.
La La Land
Disappointing
After all the hype from the so-called film critics, I was extremely disappointed with this film. The two leads (particularly Gosling) have poor vocals and can do only basic dancing which just doesn't flow. The supporting cast wasn't too good either, with inappropriate dubbing. Has Hollywood forgotten how to make a good musical?
