My biggest complaint, I played half of Act 3 and then quit because it just want fun anymore. Act 1 and 2 are great. End of Act 2 is as good as the game gets and then it nosedives.

Fights are drawn out too long, takes forever for the enemies to Get through their turns. Crowded battles are a mess. Every character wants to have cartoon sex. The males are all trying to get at your guy parts right out of the gate, every single one of them. Smh

It's a nerds game, it's geeky and quite honestly embarrassing to play for the story. Your character is wooden and just stands there, which is weird when the other npcs talk and have animation to them.

You can do almost anything you think of which is good. There is a solution to everything. However I can't stand how you can get locked out of so many side quest and other characters. If you go around and do whatever you want, it can make for a very boring story.

If I was to go back and play it again I'd try to make a character who kills everyone besides Karlach.

I have no idea why this movie receives so much hate. "Oh there's no character development, whaaaanh". Hey, not every single movie ever made requires 30min of character development and borning back stories to be good. In fact I think if your not going to spend time on back stories this is exactly how you accomplish that.

Movie is errie and set in the deep trenches of the ocean, that alone is pretty freaky. I've been in construction my entire life and this setting to me is the crepiest jobsite you could be on. Just knowing that if something goes wrong with the building your instantly liquified by the immense pressure.

I do have to say sorry to the scuba Steve bros, there is some flaws with the physics of deep water diving, so I do get your sentiment with that. However, the normal viewer who isn't trained in diving will have no idea, so that's a non issue. My father is a mechanic and would ruin all the car movies when I was a kid, but I understand it. Have a professional in there that talks to the writers at least.

I genuinely found this movies pace, tone and atmosphere all to be very well done when it comes to the sci-fi monster movie genre.

The writing wasn't clique or corny. Everyone seemed to act just about how you would expect a normal person to act under those dire circumstances.

The actors all did a nice job. I'm not a Kristen Stewart fan, or a hater. Never watched the teen love Twilight movies, just didn't seem like it would be for me. I do think she played a very solid role along with everyone else in this movie. No over the top acting, no bad acting. I think just the right amount of acting to be fair.

I didn't watch this movie as I thought it was just a deep sea movie, and nothing wrong with that, but I read the summarized plot and finding out what it was about intrigued me to watch it. Wish the critics and false reviews wouldn't have smothered this movie or I'm sure I would've watched it sooner. I watch a lot of movies and rely on IMDB quite a bit. But sometimes the masses are just wrong. For instance look at all the garbage Marvel movies and shows coming out. Good god, how do those movies get 8/10 rating. I mean do we have chimps throwing darts at a dart board? No, it's just the world has a lot of people who eat that junk. I have no idea how any of you find anything from Disney remotely entertaining... smh.

Underwater, great sci-fi monster flick set in the deepest trenches of the ocean on a underwater oil drill rig. It's not a long movie but it feels like it is because it doesn't waste 45min on boring back stories. Don't get me wrong a good 15more in into some back stories would've been just fine, probably made some of you viewers happier, but this movies waste no time into getting right into the action and holding you to the very end.

Well done ladies and gentlemen.

"Monarch: Legacy of Monsters" is a nostalgic journey that attempts to fuse the allure of classic 1950s monster movies with contemporary storytelling. The series opens with a captivating nod to the past, immersing the audience in the charm of the era. The 1950s timeline stands out for its solid acting, free from the shackles of excessive teen drama, and offers an intriguing narrative that sets the stage for what could have been a memorable monster saga.

The decision to anchor the early episodes in the 1950s proves to be a masterstroke. The show successfully captures the essence of the original monster genre through meticulous set design and CGI, creating a visual treat for fans of classic cinema. The absence of intrusive teen drama allows the narrative to breathe, focusing on the mysterious and thrilling elements that define the monster movie legacy. The acting in this segment is commendable, with the cast embodying the spirit of the era without veering into caricature.

However, as "Monarch: Legacy of Monsters" transitions to the present day, it takes a puzzling and disappointing turn. The infusion of young adult characters introduces a barrage of unnecessary drama, prominently featuring daddy issues and interpersonal conflicts. This shift in focus from monsters to personal struggles feels forced and detracts from the core appeal of the show. The narrative loses its initial strength, transforming from a monster-centric homage into a convoluted mix of soap opera tropes.

Adding to the narrative confusion are some poorly integrated lesbian moments. Rather than contributing meaningfully to character development or the overarching plot, these moments feel like gratuitous attempts to inject controversy without substance. The inclusion of such elements not only fails to enhance the viewing experience but also detracts from the cohesion of the storyline, leaving viewers questioning their relevance.

Perhaps the most glaring flaw in the series is the minimal screen time dedicated to the monsters. In a show explicitly billed as a legacy of monsters, the creatures themselves are given disappointingly sparse appearances. The monsters, which should be the beating heart of the narrative, are relegated to the sidelines, making fleeting and unsatisfying appearances. This stark imbalance between character drama and monster action leaves fans of the genre yearning for the promised creature-feature thrill.

By the time the series reaches its third episode, it becomes apparent that the decline in quality is irreversible. The narrative struggles to find a coherent direction, with multiple character arcs lacking depth and cohesion. The monsters, initially positioned as the main attraction, become mere afterthoughts. The pacing stumbles, and what initially held the promise of a modern monster saga becomes a missed opportunity, leaving viewers disappointed and disengaged.

In conclusion, "Monarch: Legacy of Monsters" begins on a high note with its 1950s timeline, presenting a visually appealing and authentic homage to classic monster cinema. The initial episodes successfully capture the magic of the past, but the series falters as it shifts to the present day. The influx of unnecessary drama, daddy issues, and poorly integrated lesbian moments dilutes the monster-centric focus, leaving the audience yearning for the captivating narrative promised in the show's early moments. Unfortunately, the decline continues beyond the third episode, making it challenging to recommend the series to those seeking a balanced blend of monster thrills and engaging storytelling.

I watched season one in full. Noticing the episode gain in momentum due to the cascading upward reviews. I waited for it to get good. It disappointed.

It's just a mediocre show, with decent acting but not good acting. It uses sex to act like a game of thrones big boy show but it's just kinda unnecessary as if we want to see that we all have access to the internet, honestly a better story and better acting should've been the focus.

The way characters die is extremely anticlimactic and carries zero weight.

It was probably around episode 3 I thought this show might be good, but after making it all the way to the end of the first season I won't be paying $10 for season 2. If it was free I might watch it, so that should sum it up.

This movie didn't need a great story. It has great character building and dialog. Awesome animation and carries itself extremely well. Almost like a Tarantino movie such as Dusk til Dawn. Story is overall more than good enough still come out on top. Very entertaining.

Stories should almost alway be strong. But when their not the rest of the movie needs uniqueness, character, grit, perseverance or something else to make it so we can see past that shortcoming and to me this movie more than compensates.

For people giving it lower than 6 stars you should stick to books. Movies allow a creator to paint a world better than your own mind could've created from reading a book. And this world of MFKZ is amazing.

Waiting all week for one episode is such a let down in the days of Netflix. Then to wait all 7days for such a boring episode. All the episodes besides the first have been such a snooze fest.

And if we wanted to see porn... we'll we'd rather just watch regular porn, rather than 5min of soft core filling up a show we've been waiting 7days for.

It's the age of internet and porn, you are wasting out time with trying to be Larry Flyntt, just quit it. And no you don't need to rachet it up a notch by making it insest. NO ONE IS WATCHING THIS SHOW FOR YOUR SORRY ATTEMPT TO DIRECT PORN, we want to see a good show, serious action, deep and witty dialogue, we'll developed characters, an amazing plot.

Damon has been the best part of the show same with the King, daughter/princess is doing all right.

But let's get moving along already is all I can say while sitting through an entire episode. A show like this on a Sunday night should be at least pretty good, this just ain't it guys and gals.

GOT was top 3 all time shows for me. This I'm about ready to walk away from. Even when GOT had a slow episode it at least had really good dialogue and interesting characters that you cared about.

This crap is just weird and boring. Straight cheeks.

This show is insane. Amazing. Even if animation isn't your thing, but war.. action.. sci-fi.. horror.. drama is, then you might want to check this out. I had no idea what I was getting into and watched the first two seasons in like 3 back to back evenings. Just gets better and better too. Amazing imagination.

I need to have 600 characters. So I'll add. Not for children, bloody and grotesquely beautiful. About a caveman and a Dinosaur and their travels together. Every episode is packed with blood and action. I don't know how they captured my attention so we'll but I was absolutely sucked in to this and never would of thought an animations would suit my taste for entertainment.

Beautiful animations too, I have the luxury of a LG 60" C1 OLED to view this through and it's beautiful.

Small spoiler, there isn't much talking, but you'll soon find out that it's actually setup better this way. I mean what would a caveman say to a dinosaur anyway, they didn't have a language they grunted. And this just takes that concept and nails it perfectly. Anyway enjoy.

He used to be organically funny, witty and fair with his assumptions. Now he's an old boomer who's lost it due to having a case of full fledged trump hate disorder. Dude needs to get a grip. Not funny John, not funny. And the show isn't meant to be funny. But it's just such a bad look on him these days. He should of stayed retired. Huge mistake towards his legacy. He left a king and came back a far left wing nut job. Shame.

Hopefully they cancel it soon. Only 1,500 rating for this show tells you that no one likes it or cares about it. Waste of Apples money.

Hopefully he gets some help and checks in with a therapist and stops snorting CNN and MSNBC need propaganda.

Only interesting part is like the last 5%. After watching the painfully boring show "Invasion" I'm starting to feel as if this show is going down hill in that's same fashion, bad writting. More space Sci-Fi would save this show but they focus more on suuuper boring story lines, but worse than they is the way they execute those story lines. Need to get back on track or this show is dead to me as well. Better have a talk with your writers or find new ones.

Can't stand his new girlfriend. Just destroys the show for what I thought this would be. Looked great now turning into a old man love story. Her character just doesn't make much sense. He should've hit it and quit it.

I don't know. Just not as interesting as season one or two for me. It was all about the mystery and then...... just feel like they are trying to make something for people to watch but there just isn't anymore talented writers left over to help them out. Kinda sad. Really was looking forward to this show.

Clearly they are whiling their episode that was good because the entire beginning of season 3 has been underwhelming to say the least. Getting really repetitive.

Season 1 phenomenal, Season 2 great, Season 3 ......Jesus H Christ. This is what TV and entertainment is nowadays. Gotta make sure conservatives are painted into stupid political talking points and exaggerated to look as dumb and liberals want them to be. Toxic.

Back to a good sci-fi show. This episode redeems the last two, especially episode 7 with Kwan Ha which is beyond unless for this show. Kwan Ha is terrible. Almost ruined the show for me.

I've never watched all the Harry Potter movies. But just recently watched Guns Akimbo with Daniel Radcliffe and I'll have to say I think he is a very solid actor. Great actor in fact. Kudos to him for not getting stuck in that kids role and being able to branch out. Great movie. Awesome thriller.

I just can't anymore. So many shows that start well and then just deficate all over its self. Kwan is annoying and and an all around bad actor. This story was going good then started to meander a bit then just completely fell apart. Fire your producers and directors for your next project. Taylor Sheridan is the only one producing quality over at Paramount.

Take notice of Netflix. Garbage cooking shows. Lame political message shows. Way to much dubbed over shows. Oh their stock is tanking and loosing subscribers. Surprised? Well you shouldn't be. People want their entertainment they pay for to actually be entertaining. Get it done.

I don't even understand the high reviews. I like smart well acted and artsy dramas like anyone else. But this movie is just not good. Way to slow and super boring.

Dialogue is mid tier, but the action and heart of the characters is what carries the movie. It's an entertaining movie for sure. If you like action, Scifi, and military movies combined with not any depth to the movie just a good story that is fairly shallow in depth then you'll like it.

It's a fun flick, but not a mind bender or deep or any grade A acting. But for sure it's a good ride!

I liked it. But I know what kind of movie it was trying to be and it did the job. Good movie.

We don't want anymore hand holdy games. This is what we have all been waiting for. Done with Assassin's Creed and Far Cry's "honey-do-list" style of game maps. Old and boring. Elden ring is by far the most amazing game I've ever played. Truly open world and free roaming. They've also implemented so many ease of life things with making the game very challenging. Mind blowing. If they release DLC or add on to it I will be stoked. High-Five guys you nailed it! My only couple critiques are, too much crafting stuff, even though you can get by without all of it. Also could use some more Katanas, bows and weapons for the Samauri. Been rocking his starting weapon for quite some time lol.

Movie was really not funny. Critics said it's a must if your a fan of Seth Rogan. I used to be but now he's all political and I hate that garbage. So Seth can continue to make movies that are pretty much propaganda for democrats but I'm never going to watch any of it. This was the last move. It's a stupid movie. Mostly unfunny.... Like 95% unfunny. Watch something else. Boo this man.

Season one was actually pretty good. Season two is really falling on its face. I'm starting to wonder how hands on Ridley Scott really is with this project. To be frank if I didn't get HBO Max for free through my ATT cell phone service I'd never watch HBO. Pretty lame content. All the big block buster releaes have been very underwhelming.

However raised by wolves has a chance. But season 2 needed to be strong and already these first two episodes are by far the weakest out of all of them. You can tell besides the main actress that no ones really into it. Travis Fimmel was great in Vikings. But is, I don't know. I don't think it's his fault I just think the director stinks. He's in charge and this isn't getting it done.

Mind bending, slow at times but still keeps you at the edge of your seat. Great over all. Ending could be been a bit better but wasn't bad, it did leave open for a 2nd season.

Honestly about 3/4 of the episodes are great. Supernatural story with horror elements. It's the gown up version of Stranger Things, but much darker.

I really liked it. Anyone rating it less than a 7 probably have a full Marvel collection of DVDs. For real.

Apple TV has got to do better than this. They don't have much content and most of it is a bunch of duds. This show was by far the worst one I watched. So boring, terrible writing plot has been done a million times but they blunder one of the easiest plots by making it just flat out boring.
