Great film. It's a pity it didn't get added to new 52 continuity, like the other R rated titles are.

Reminds me of Heath Ledger's joker in the whole idea that he tried to get a 'regular' person to go insane like through trauma of loved ones and public humiliation, the same way Joker himself did--but only got proved wrong. SPOILER I liked it, because I like more adult themed cartoons and lets face it, Batman and Batgirl hooking up was totally hot. It's not like they did anything explicit but somehow people got hurt feelings or something because of off camera implications. If you read that much into a cartoon themed for adults, then perhaps you should watch some themed for younger audiences. You have the option.

I was thrilled to hear Tarantino was doing a Trek film, and figured this film would help boost that anticipation I'm feeling It did the opposite. I'm now less hyped than ever for his Trek project, and considering the ideological turns his most recent film is showing signs of -- I'm leary to say the least about his 10th upcoming project. As for his 9th (this film):

Not enough action. No, I wasn't looking for another Pulp Fiction, and what little we got was somewhat realistic--but I seriously expected to see a *SPOILER* Charlie Manson appearance, and hopefully--a murder or two at his hands. What I got was an off camera post credit assumption that yes, Manson killed these people eventually, about 5 minutes after the credits roll.... and after seeing the lead up to why maybe Manson chose the victims he did from the characters in the film--it suggested their murder had motive and wasn't just senseless. That was the real insult, we were denied seeing that play out. *SPOILER*

What we got, was a double dose of Tarantino's female foot fetish (and unfortunately, no girls desperate to pee like he also tends to throw into the mix--fetishes are fine with me) and some action... but did we need to see Leo freaking out about acting so much? Those scenes would have been better filled by--the Charlie Manson murders I think most of the viewers were expecting. I sure was. Not as terrible as Ocean's H8, Not as bad as the Supergirl plan to kill all former supermen of the 21st century with their F rated (F as in FAIL) crossover event--but only slightly less disappointing than Avengers and Dark Phoenix turned out being.

If this is what we can expect from Tarantino in his 10th film--I hope the 10th is his last, because he's clearly losing steam or had to sell out to some extent to even get his projects green-lit.

Sadly, hollywood producers are trying to sell idealism to an audience that just isn't interested in politics when they're tuning in for theatre. Theatre is what we engage in to escape political issues-don't fill our films and series with it anymore. It's very unoriginal, and if you haven't noticed yet: is causing your studios to lose money... to the point Disney can afford to buy them all.

This is the first ever Nick Cage flick I've rated below 9. I even liked Ghostrider (Dunno why all the hate) both parts... but I was younger when they were released. Loved Face off. 60 Seconds. Even more recent ones: A Score to Settle was deeply heartwarming. But what the F&@* is this? Did he finally cuck to the wah-men machine taking over hollywood destroying everything from comics to video games to television and movies and even the presidency? What the actual f*@#? I can only hope tt5073642 isn't like this, but we'll see where this goes from here. SPOILER THIS crap was full of male humiliation rituals and unrealistic outcome: do we really expect to believe the cartel responsible for the drugs can trace the cut all the way down the line to fishburne's character, burn him at the steak, and somehow, a superhero level girl agent of the fbi just strolls in and gets away with blowing him away in his own pizza shop after that without any sort of backlash from the same cartel that's so powerful and into shaming men? Where's her burning at the steak and being tortured naked? that's something I'd find more entertaining than doing it to a blackman in a film with all but token white cast (the cartel was awful white to point out your hypocrisy further filmmakers and casting agents) no ladies, that's now how this ends--that little girl just got herself and those kids she fought the whole film to protect--killed by the cartel. They can track her down just as easily. Already knew she was in touch with fishburne's character--remember?

First Nick Cage film I'll rate this low, and hopefully the last. He's just desperate for cash, and overall at least his character was the only respectable protagonist / antihero minus how it ended for him. I just hope the guy doesn't sell out like the rest of them...

Description: "On the run from a drug deal gone bad, Mike Ross, a brilliant college dropout, finds himself a job working with Harvey Specter, one of New York City's best lawyers" ===Spoilers follow=== Season 9 is current Is this really still an accurate summary? Mike stopped smoking pot in what, season 4? Mike was written off the show in season 7! The only accurate phrase of the description is 'Harvey Specter, one of New York City's best lawyers" and it really doesn't describe the show even remotely well (or the character in my opinion)

Maybe when you can't negotiate with title character actors behind closed doors, you're producing the show wrong and should stop screwing the talent. This show most likely will not survive season 9, as now Jessica has also left the series and we have a handful of new actors to try and fill the gaps who are spreading themselves so thin all character on the series they play are basically one person, reflecting a general lack of talent. Please cancel this series. It's a rather whitewashed cast anyway, and I'm conservative so you won't see me saying that too often. I just don't like the way this show has been written since ... well season 4, when Mike quit pot, and the show was no longer what the imdb page described it as.

Pros: -Minimal Bree Larson -Cap worthy of the Hammer -They killed my least favourite avenger *spoiler*(BW)*spoiler* -Decent battle scene (could've been better)

Cons: -PC one liners (she lacks awe, she's preachy and I skipped her film) -Phase 4 looks bleak (all orig white male avengers are now black female) -Too much drama and smug filler (and yet no post credits scene) -They killed my favourite avenger *spoiler*(Tony Stark)*spoiler*

-Overall kinda slow moving and boring, heavy on the preachy and I'm glad Stan Lee didn't live to see it happen.
