A lot of paid critics are idiots or arts snobs. Consider Charlotte Observer's Lawrence Toppman. He gave this 3/4 and Rogue 1.5/4 (3rd lowest of 60).
‘Collateral Beauty’ goes out on an emotional limb http://www.charlotteobserver.com/entertainment/ent-columns-blogs/lawrence-toppman/article120773393.html
Maybe Lawrence is unimpressed with mindles bombasitic fan-fiction and prefers something with a little more profundity.
"Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man..."
with a little more profundity
Rogue One is entertainment. Collateral Beauty is trying to make you think. This one critic believes it succeeded.
Better?
"Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man..."
it tries, alrighty, but based on some rather mediocre performances and an awfully boring script is fails.
I do enjoy both, movies that make you think and movies which are pure entertainment.
But this one (which I only watched because of Norton and Mirren) was just awful.
...but they hung him anyway.
Hanged, Ami. Your father was not a tapestry.
Sounds like Vincent hasn't even seen Rogue One
shareAnyone who finds profundity out of this movie is clearly falling into the marketing gimmick Warner Bros wanted them to fall into. If you think about this movie for any period of time you'll see it is senseless, cruel, and condescending.
Trying to create a channel based on interpreting, reviewing, and even giving you something to laugh about film. Hope you enjoy what you see. Thanks in advance.
Review of the film here-https://youtu.be/j6E_mun4Cj0
I didn't particularly like "Rogue One" for making so much fuss over what was basically explainable as a minor engineering oversight... among other issues (getting really sick of the 'teenage' children of destiny shtick) but I'd give it about a 7/10.
This... I don't even know what to think. I just know it ain't good. I can't even put enough interest into analyzing it.
