IMDbrief

Doom Patrol looks incredibly dumb, but I will give it a chance. I wasn't blown away by Umbrella at first, but by the 7th episode I felt it really gained some serious credibility. The final, 10th episode pulls the entire series up and over the hump for me. I would not want 2 seasons because these kids are just too emotionally screwed up to do much more

Mads Mikkelsen stars in this original film from Netflix, and he usually does high quality films (Casino Royale, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Valhalla Rising to name a few). But you'll wish you could have the time back spent watching Polar. The opening scene, which stars Johnny Knoxville, is completely devoid of any intrigue, character building (with the exception of overlaid graphics telling you who each character is), and plot. The production quality too, even though presented in 4k/HDR, is fairly low. It seems like a B-grade movie that only aspired to be a B-grade movie. If you like Mads, don't waste your time on Polar go see Arctic.

This story had several inconsistencies throughout the film. First, anyone who saw the beast would commit suicide, next others would live but force others to look at the beast. Very poorly done.

Sandra's acting was not at her usual level. I believe she tried hard it just wasn't there for here.

Overall it was a very disappointing film.

1. Star Wars IX. 2. Spider-Man Far from Home. 3. The Lion King. 4. Toy Story 4.

I mean... come on :)

Just felt sorry for chris pine. overdrawn scenes, lack of character depth, storytelling almost absent. netflix should spend money on tv shows rather than movies that almost no one likes
