I liked it. Goofy as hell but with good fight scenes. Only problems I had were the helicopter scene at the end felt in poor taste, and the cover of the original theme song is pozzed.(Cuts out all references to stars entirely instead of giving it new ones.)
Also, the number of Chekov's Guns in the movie is insane. Like the writer went on a callback bender.
Also really strange that they referred to the bad guy grabbing the gun as "Jason Bourne shit" when they literally copied the end of Bourne Supremacy right before the final act. Half expected Moby to start playing.
Same, it was fun and funny. Has issues I'll overlook for the goofy nature. There's an extended cut to come which may fill in some wholes but overall it was worth watching even though it has little to do with the original show. Def could have used some trimming to tighten up areas
Awful. Verbose romcom dialogue and predictable investigation plot. Zero chemistry between Goose/Blunt (her acting was great though, very light and charming despite the fact that the character was le girlboss)
This movie was bad. Remember when comedies actually had jokes? Every scene just felt like bad improv ("Nihilist sexy bacon"???) and went on for two minutes too long. The leads had no chemistry, and the plot was weirdly straightforward for an apparent mystery. The worst scene in the movie is maybe the one where Blunt is trying to get Gosling to apologize for ghosting her by asking him what his character would say and it goes on for like 5 minutes of them just redoing the same premise (they're talking about the movie but REALLY they're talking about each other).
7/10. pretty neer action komedie flick. The story doesn't make sense whatsoever. But if you can look past that it's pretty decent without ever becoming great
She was a super hot evil b***h in the first season of Ted Lasso too, but then the writers decided they didn't wan't to make a light comedy anymore and turned it into a lame hugbox with no characters
fun for what it is. i don't agree with anons above who said they don't have chemistry. in fact i probably would have preferred a straight rom com with them just being flirty on the movie set and pulling off some crazy stunts, i think the worst part of the movie is the increasingly unrealistic murder plot and associated action scenes.
her bogged face was too distrcting just didnt work. This movie felt like the director was pissed at the studio because he wanted to make a romance movie but was forced to add the action.
it would be kino if they didn't put rom-com into their movie. I personally like rom-com genre and I think the idea of rom-com mixed with action is good but this shit is like they used AI to wrote the script.
Bullet Train was much funnier. Fall Guy is more of a romance and the comedy that is there is not nearly as good. The stunts were more hardcore action than slapstick and honestly the action and the romance didn't really mix.
The climax of the film should be the stuntman jumping in a car with the love interest. Not with his mortal enemy. It just felt like the romance half and the action half were separate movies.
>TFW I secretly love romance >I'm also a guy
It's fricking over for me isn't it?
Millions of men and women went insane for Casablanca. I personally have seen more than one Nicolas Sparks movie that I've enjoyed. It's something you can enjoy with a woman, that's a positive.
Making the villain's minions a gang of Kiwis with Australian working holiday visas is not OK. Look up the history of immoral deportations from Australia to New Zealand.
I think what really fricks with bogged actors is that it gives them a very defined face
Its hard to display different emotions when you got RBF or look bloated.
If the Goose was after a younger woman I might have seen this movie
All the letterboxd reviews were girls talking about Ryan Gosling's "rizz."
>homosexual gets intrigued by a slop made by women for women >refuses to admit in total denial
This sitcom lovestory trash with a 50 yo couple is made exactly for women.

it bombed because young girls dont think ryan is a sex symbol. They needed to find some asian twink. Also ryan was much better in Barbie hes almost asleep in this movie.
>hes almost asleep in this movie
The character is written that way and honestly I think that's part of why the movie failed.
His whole issue is that he just disappeared because after his fall he lost the confidence that he was good enough for her.
In the movie she comes around to him but I don't think women really want that kind of man irl.
It uses masculine interests and framing to propagate progressive ideas ie Le Smart Female director. And the movie has no believable stakes, making the entire movie feel cheap.
watched the extended cut, it was fun. a lot of meta film memes for the film enjoyers, plus the ending credits stuff of the actual stuntmen was nice. probably never watching more than once but it wasn't bad at all. he's still our guy. 7/10
Bland. Focuses on stunts but still tries to aim itself at the over 40 female demographic.
Goes way out of its way to ensure a man never rescues a woman; actually specifically ruined movie for me.
Astute.
It was about 5/10 for me. I never really got bored at any point while watching it. But I never really cared about or got into what I was watching either. It was absolutely mid entertainment.
Fun movie. A shame there aren't more movies like it.
Not that it's greatest movie of all time or anything but I feel like we don't get very many entertaining movies anymore
I saw it in a pretty packed theater last night. I liked the meta film jokes (I work in TV production) and thought Emily and Goose's relationship was cute. Action set pieces were mediocre but at least they weren't CGI slop (which the movie called out several times). The Dune parody was funny.
Solid B- summer flick. Had a 24oz Sam Addams and some laughs. Audience loved it more than me.
idk where you are located obviously but just get involved with something local first. Pretty much every Church is doing livestreams these days, often with multi-cam shoots, a switcher, and a Director calling the show, so that's always a good option to get entry level experience, cause they'll take anyone willing to work for shit pay and often have surprisingly nice modern gear.
I work in live TV mostly so I'll take any warm body on a shoot who's not an butthole, knows how to wrap a cable over-under, and understands proper etiquette on comms/radio. You just need to build up a bit of experience working a few decent productions, and make it know to other freelancers that you're willing to help them out on other gigs. Production companies have a rotation of guys they call so once you're in, your in.
THE FALL something (can't read, actors are in the way)
FROM THE DIRECTOR OF other movie I will never watch
STARRING middle aged man with mid-life crisis haircut and uncanny valley face and middle-aged woman with megaphone (the last thing I want to hear is a woman shouting into a megaphone)
Didn't saw it, 5/10

Sorry, meant Bourne Ultimatum. Get the two mixed up.

I liked it quite a bit, could've easily been 10 minutes or so shorter but very good
Awful. Verbose romcom dialogue and predictable investigation plot. Zero chemistry between Goose/Blunt (her acting was great though, very light and charming despite the fact that the character was le girlboss)
Absolute dogshit movie. Awful.

blunt and gosling were very attractive 5 to 10 years ago, I hate how they both butched their faces
It's actually pretty good
>Expected some badass autistic Gosling movie
>Got moronic gay ass sitcom love story dogshit for women
0/10 time wasted
that pic is not real moron
7/10. pretty neer action komedie flick. The story doesn't make sense whatsoever. But if you can look past that it's pretty decent without ever becoming great
she was so hot frick
good taste
She was a super hot evil b***h in the first season of Ted Lasso too, but then the writers decided they didn't wan't to make a light comedy anymore and turned it into a lame hugbox with no characters
The best part was the credits and I think more movies should have a behind the scenes montage.
I really liked it wasn't expecting anything but it was fun

probably a 7/8 out of 10.

Liked it (Extended version). But Bullet Train was way better.

Why does gosling look so ugly in this movie?
1. He's over 40.
2. Blunt hooked him with her bog guys.
3. Both 1 and 2.
He took the call. It’s over for him
the scene where him and blunt reunite on set for the first time is almost parody levels. both bogged as frick unable to emote
,lrl
I like the idea of a love-letter movie for stunt guys.
The movie itself is pretty mediocre.
Making the villain's minions a gang of Kiwis with Australian working holiday visas is not OK. Look up the history of immoral deportations from Australia to New Zealand.

this was made for women right?
Yes that was my sense while watching
Women didn't saw the movie
Funny how jeets don't even bother with viral marketing anymore
Why is it a huge flop then?

More like The WALL guys

the game was fun

slop
It was the dialogue equivalent of Liam Neeson climbing over that fence.
>TFW I secretly love romance
>I'm also a guy
It's fricking over for me isn't it?
It's only over when you start caring what women think they want.
Just saw this movie. This movie didn't know what it wanted to be. It had
1. A behind the scenes story of a film stuntman and his road to recovery after getting nearly fatally injured
2. A romance plot between the stuntman and director.
3. Investigation suspense story on figuring out what happened to a missing cast member
4. An action movie about being on the run from criminals.
5. A funny comedy about cracking jokes while being on set and surviving injuries
6. A meta commentary on the film industry and crew members
7. A sub-plot about finding evidence to clear his name that was similar to Ocean's 11 with the plans within plans
8. It was also 30 minutes too long.
Make up your mind. Pick 3. Not SEVEN different plots and stories.
posts like these are the reason i don't come to Cinemaphile before i watch something
Nothing was spoiled. All this happen in the first part of the movie and just drags on for 2.5 hours.
If anything, the trailer for the movie was incredibly dishonest. They mad it seem like it was a straight up action movie. It's not even close.
wasn't complaining about spoilers. it's the completely god awful wall of text breakdowns that completely miss the mark.
Astute.
It was about 5/10 for me. I never really got bored at any point while watching it. But I never really cared about or got into what I was watching either. It was absolutely mid entertainment.
I wondered who that was.
Needed to be about 30 minutes shorted and advertised as a chick flick so I would have known not to watch it.
Absolute flop
It sucked.
Fun movie. A shame there aren't more movies like it.
Not that it's greatest movie of all time or anything but I feel like we don't get very many entertaining movies anymore

Any advice for good entry level TV productions jobs? Or stuff that would look good on a resume when applying?

Both of the leads are 15 years too old.
You shut the frick up about the goose.
THE FALL something (can't read, actors are in the way)
FROM THE DIRECTOR OF other movie I will never watch
STARRING middle aged man with mid-life crisis haircut and uncanny valley face and middle-aged woman with megaphone (the last thing I want to hear is a woman shouting into a megaphone)
ONLY IN THEATERS for 2 weeks before streaming
It was a nice little flick and I never realized Blunt had such a nice ass
highly recommend Edge of Tomorrow for more Blunt kino
