And they say Jodie Whitaker was not a good Doctor?

Well, I'm not blaming Ncuti Gatwa. I'm blaming Disney. I said it.

The Disneyfication of the Doctor Who franchise has turned it into a bloody mess! BBC has lost credibility by turning over the artistic reins of this episode to the producers of Disney's High School Musical which I have never seen, and don't intend to see. This might have been better as an animated episode.

No empathy towards the characters, no heartfelt companion story; just a bizarre villain(ess?) and some hokey Special FX. The Eccleston, Tennant, Smith and Capaldi years were leaps and bounds better, with much better storytelling. Please hurry up this season so I can unsubscribe from Disney+!!!

STOP! MUST READ! DO NOT WATCH THIS HORRIBLE FILM!!!

As a fan of the original Dr. Seuss animated television shows based minimally on simply the children books he wrote, how this apocalypse of a film ever got made I will never understand!

I'm embarrassed for all the top notch talent that appear and add absolutely nothing.

Whoville and The Grinch don't need a back story.

I've avoided watching this film for 22 years and am only watching under duress.

Post-Batman & Robin, Joel Schumacher's abomination, they must have had leftover bits of the Riddler for Jim Carrey to include in this Grinch film.

And I can't believe this actually win an Oscar for Best Makeup! Since when did the Grinch become a dog faced creature?

AVOID FOR YOUR BENEFIT!!!

When you have an Emmy-winning star, Tatiana Maslany, paired with a Lead writer from "Rick and Morty" you're bound to get an overall bad production with lots of stereotypes.

I've never read the comic books, but as an MCU fan I shouldn't have to since Disney hasn't stayed true to those storylines much anyway.

She-Hulk can be a strong character without all the stereotype traps! Like any hero/villain story give them deeper origin stories. A 2-month montage doesn't get it.

I was hoping for some Popcorn entertainment and I got cabbage soup. Hope this gets better!

The 1977 film captured a struggling actor's world in New York. This remake completely misses the mark, casting two near-age 50 main actors. And notes to anyone producing or directing Neil Simon: stay true to the text.

This was a straight-up greedy money grab to try and profit off of an already successful screenplay.

If Xanadu and Marvel had a baby, it would be the Eternals. Fantasy, inspiration, Gods & Celestials, End of the World, Save all of Humanity.

Except no Roller skates, but it does have a Bollywood Musical Number. I wish it had had Roller skates.

All the 1-star reviews are flatly wrong. Only 1 episode was watched when those reviews were even posted!

1) this is comedy 2) It's a SITUATIONAL Comedy... aka Sitcom. Normal situations. Awkward characters. Comedic setups. Funny outcomes.

3) it's meant to be cringe-worthy with a 14-yo main character starting High School, who is muslim, awkward, child of divorce, pubescent, and seeking to be popular and fit in.

Relax, not all comedies are for everyone, but please: Actually watch the whole series before criticizing.

I am usually a Disney skeptic for its cheese factor with Princess movies, but much like Enchanted (Amy Adams, Patrick Dempsey) this film teaches that there is more to true love than just between two people. It's within families, extended families, new families and friends. You can truly love helping someone find the happiness within them. Kicking off 2021 on New Year's Day with this film is just the thing to brush off the holiday blues. I watched with my adult special needs sister and even she spontaneously applauded at several happy moments! 😃 So, Brava Jillian Bell and Isla Fisher!!!

Who knew? OperaVision dot eu is offering this gem online

A Leonard Bernstein classic!!!

This is not a licensed, commercially available film.

It's video (via YouTube) of production backstage and clips from the show.

Brilliant performances by all, in a heart-wrenching and compelling story dealing with mental illness.

And that's just the first episode.
