Thank god!!! This series is as good as the original series (at least the first few seasons anyway). After the last outing, I wasn't expecting much but this is great. Even Harrison is watchable this time around. Good to see original cast members popping up as well. Overall a stellar cast and great storytelling.

Make no mistake, this film is garbage. The script. The acting. The plot. The effects. I get it: a "filmmaker" using his pocket money to make a film on a Saturday afternoon in his mum's basement is not going to win awards. How this has spawned two sequels (at the moment!!) is beyond me. I'm glad all the characters died. Here's an example of the stupidity of the film - the girl at the end gets out the warehouse where there are cars and then goes back inside using a different door. WTF!!! It clearly wasn't made to be a comedy horror but that's what we've got, except the comedy is unintentional. Of course I'm gonna watch 2 & 3!!

Oh for the love of....... I genuinely don't understand how this man is allowed to keep making movies. This film is by far his worst yet. The script was written by a child. The exposition throughout is comical. The acting is worse than amateur and the plot is so weak, it couldn't get out of a wet paper bag. There is nothing believable at any point. It is a nepotistic piece of cinema; a vehicle for the director's daughter who is as much an actor as I am a brain surgeon. Have you ever watched a film and thought of cutting off a limb because it would be a more pleasurable experience??? Well I have. And it was whilst watching this dog mess of a movie. I hate my life a bit more for having watched this.

Honestly, I don't know where to start. From the outset, I was rooting for the bad guy to kill off all the characters. None of them were likeable, believable or realistic. I'm assuming the writers of the film were 12 years old because it's just a horrible story and the script was just the worst. And the end of the film!! Oh my god!!!! All their friends have been horribly murdered but they literally drive off into the sunset laughing!! I was expecting a post credit scene to show the bad guy was still around and finished off the survivors, but no!!! Just wishful thinking on my part. If you watch this, more fool you.

This was never going to win awards but that was never the intention. It is a blast from start to finish with no dip in pace. It's one action scene after another which are all well done. I wasn't expecting much from the two leads but they were really great together. You aren't meant to take this seriously, and the film does a great job at laughing at itself and Hollywood in general. It's just a great way to spend two hours. There are plenty of retro references such as a sound effect being used from The Six Million Dollar Man a few times. The tongue in cheek humour works really well. I really hope they add Stunts as a category at the Oscars because this film demonstrates how incredible they really are, which is reinforced with the behind the scenes montage during the closing credits.

I knew exactly what to expect before I started watching. I put my brain in a drawer, suspended reality and began. Ten minutes in and I resorted to contemplating what I have done wrong in my life to warrant this film being made, let alone being made available to watch. It looks pretty. That's it. Awful acting. Cliched speech. Rubbish CGI. I don't pay for Netflix. My partner does. I cancelled my subscription last year because they only make dog-do shows and films. And this is the top of the heap. I'm a fan of apocalyptic films - the ones where the world ends. I longed for a meteor to smash into the planet to end my misery. I'd rather watch my nan in the shower than watch 5 mins of this film.

I am a massive Gervais fan. He is responsible for some of the best TV - After Life, Derek, etc. His earlier stand-ups are genuinely brilliant. The last two or three have seen a steady decline in quality. All he seems to be doing is fulfilling his Netflix contract to collect the obscene amounts of money without concerning himself with the quality of material. He is clearly surrounded by Yes-men who are paid to worship the ground he walks on rather than someone with an ounce of integrity telling him, 'Ricky, this show is rubbish!' This is by far the worst of his stand-ups and isn't worth your time!!

This started well but by season 2 it was clear that the current Message was going to be threaded into this show. I can tolerate Superman having constant stubble with Latino looks, or Lois Lane looking like a cross between Skeletor and Megamind. I can even tolerate Lana Lang being made Arabic in ethnicity. But making the kids have to deal with liking boys or girls or trying too hard to make the girls more important than the boys..... just leave established material alone!!!! That's what I hate. The constant need to 'update' pre-existing material Modern!!!! Create you own original stories and characters!!! The character Natalie is insufferable.

The idea of having NOBODY speak in the film except on a radio and a couple of mumbled words must have got someone excited in the pitch meeting. The reality is that it's awful. Just awful. The film is only 1hr 40 mins but it's still 40 mins too long!!!!! The whole middle can be cut out. Utterly pointless!! The action!!! Woo may have directed but the action scenes were devised by a 4 year old!!! In the car chase, despite the engines revving to the extreme, they are moving about 5 miles an hour!!!! The shoot outs see the bad guys about 10 feet from each other and nobody can hit a thing!!!!! Two cars driving side by side shooting at each other with about 200 bullets and they hit nothing!!!!!!!! I found myself laughing out loud and swearing profusely at the screen!!!! Woo's use of slo mo is still there but it just made scenes funnier!! The opening shows our main character running in slo mo and it looks awful as he is clearly pretending to run!!!!!!! CGI blood splatter galore! Don't bother!

The slowest quiz on TV. And who keeps giving Alan Carr work? He is utterly insufferable. I'd rather watch my nan straining to park her Sunday roast. And there appear to be three people in the audience with some added canned laughter for good measure. It's even worse than Blankety Blank with Bradley Walsh! What is also apparent is that those responsible for booking the contestants clearly have a criteria: IQ's under 50. Shows a picture of Agatha Christie - "Is that Roald Dahl?" Sweet lord. I thought torture was outlawed yet this show is available to the public!! Don't watch it. Have a bag of beef monster munch instead.

This 'documentary' asserts from the outset that this is the tomb of Jesus. This is nonsense. It is as much his tomb as the Shroud of Turin is a picture of Jesus! What it does highlight is that no one can agree on the facts demonstrated by the religious sects shown violently clashing at the tomb. I don't care what people believe. I care about facts. Demonstrable, evidenced facts. An old book is not proof. Faith is not a valid method of deciding on the truth. There is literally zero real evidence it is the tomb of Christ. This show relies on the gospels which can be instantly dismissed as we know they are anonymous and full of lies. If it makes you feel good to believe it then I'm happy for you but do not push this religious nonsense down outlets throats!

I lasted ten whole minutes before I had to switch off before I had a stroke because it was so bad. The script in those ten minutes was utterly diabolical with every single spy cliche spoken. Gal Gadot is, to me, the most beautiful woman in the world but dear god, she is a dreadful actress. Perhaps she should stick to posing glamorously on social media and selling her own brand Mac n cheese!!! She is not a leading lady. WW 1 and 2, Red Notice, etc were all awful. This is on Netflix so you know it's gonna be bad! But then again, people will watch it because there is nothing else to watch on that platform!!

Look, I get it. A fun, family show with entertaining characters. But there is zero realism. This is pure fantasy. Nothing the team of geniuses would actually work or be even possible. This makes The A Team look like a documentary. Cheap production values, scripts written by teenagers, over-acting; I found myself watching this garbage just to laugh at how stupid it is. The fact this was cancelled midway through makes sense - someone in charge actually bothered to watch an episode and clearly saw that it was worse than watching James Corden!!! In fact, that's a perfect way to sun it all up. I'd rather watch anything with James Corden than this. Yes, it's that bad.

I'll keep this short and sweet. I enjoyed this at the start. But then it turned into a "white man is bad" platform. Add to this the stormtrooper skill level shootouts in every episode - officers shooting at bad guys with automatic weapons at a distance of ten feet and missing!!!! Officers shooting bad guys in the leg, arm or feet but never centre body mass. This show has become Naked Gun. Plus all the women officers are ninjas. I get that it's just a Tv show and it's not real life. But I laugh out loud at most episodes. Four or 5 officers head into Guatemala to rescue a colleague from the most powerful drug cartel and are home in time for tea. Utter nonsense.

So it's June 6th and this is the worst thing I've seen this year. So far. For the love of god, do not watch this. You have been warned!!!! Not one funny joke from any of the acts. Jimmy Carr was diabolical!!

Well, that's me done with Marvel films. This was truly awful. Terrible CGI, terrible script, terrible story. Ben Kingsley was the worst. I genuinely hoped they would all die at the end. And I thought Black Widow was bad.

If you want to teach your kids why drugs are bad, show them this film!! This is utter garbage, giving basement dwellers an opportunity to spout conspiracy nonsense whilst providing no evidence at all. You have been warned.

I had cancer last year. That was infinitely funnier than this car crash.

Bloated, egotistical, self serving, done-before, unnecessary movie. It's wonderful to see this cast together, especially JP out of retirement. However, De Niro phones it in but Al and Joe are, well, Al and Joe. The CGI de-aging worked well but these guys can't move like the younger men they are portraying. It felt like a swan song for these legends but they deserve better. I was bored; had to break the movie up into three sittings.
