loveglow101's rating
Look, I don't know what people have as far as expectations for the movie industry these days, but all I expect is to be entertained. I was entertained. This movie was fun and although it was not as good as the first movie, it was still entertaining to watch. Yes, the X could've been better, but seeing is though this is a megalodon shark movie I give it some grace for jumping the shark. No pun intended. I did not come into this expecting it to be scientifically, correct if you come into this movie expecting that you are setting yourself up for failure. Just sit back. Relax and enjoy the movie .
My five star rating of this movie is generous. Am my opinion. This is an attempt to remake in a modern way, the talented Mr. Ripley. Which happens to be one of my favorite movies. I realize this early on in the movie and I hoped that they would've pulled it off better than they did. But they didn't! You are better spending your time watching the talented Mr. Ripley. In that movie you at least get to be tuned in to Matt Damon's deceit and the world response around him. Here you are left to use your imagination and assume until the end. Which tries to be a , gotcha reveal but fails. It is a beautiful film however.
Not sure why this movie has such a low rating here but it's a great movie experience. Ir has a 95% fresh on rotten tomatoes. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The story was great, the characters, the sets, the costume design.... it was a beautiful movie set in a time of history that is rarely explored from this point of view. Africans during the time of trade with the Portuguese and English. It's not just the cargo off to the new land.
I feel like this could be a series....ie Vikings. It too is not historically accurate, but the power struggles, the fighting, the captures, the society... it's all a piece in time where the stories can take seasons to tell. Viola was great!! And the supporting cast was AMAZIINNGGGGG!!!! This movie better ve present at award season lol.
