In my list? Thus you should. Because that is the best Netflix has to offer.Quoting Philip J. Fry (view post)
I was putting in perspective all the netflix exclusive stuff.
I'm about an hour in and I like it a hell of a lot more than that chris hemsworth thing. At least its interesting.
Interesting really? A bunch of immortals suddenly become not immortal when the plot needs it to? And a trainee immortal who has as much charisma as that sack of meat in the Godzilla reboot?
Yep. I'm not saying it's amazing, but good god was that hemsworth thing a snore-fest for something trying to be a Cannon film.
Edit: I havent finished either yet.
We watched different movies if you're describing Hemsworth thing as a snore fest. It's filled the brim with hand to hand fighting.
I was so bored I turned it off after 30 minutes. But if you're forcing me, I'll try again....

Has the bones of a decent action flick and benefits a lot from Charlize Theron’s presence. However, the craftsmanship and direction are a little lacking. Has the sheen of a direct-to-video effort. And the villain is ridiculous and kind of ruins the whole thing. Passable entertainment, though. I wish we could see the concept in more capable hands and with more substantive scripting.

Yeah, the likes of Theron and Ejiofor wouldn't have touched this with a 10" pole if things were different. I don't share Duke's vitriol, it was done well enough for what it is and Charlize doesn't disappoint, and I didn't mind any of the others either, except for Dudley's scene chewing Martin Shkreli wannabe. It plays more like a decent pilot for a SyFy show, and is exactly too long by the difference between it and a TV episode.

Shocked actually.
"Who are you?"
*Shoots self in foot*
"oh you're one of them"
"Yeh I'm new"
Bitch that didn't prove anything except she's an idiot! Are you supposed to see her Wolverine healing through he shoes? Or is it the noise of the skin grafting back together what convinced you?
Passable Entertainment??
Where's Irish or Trans?
Finished this. Enjoyed. Duke not wrong on that scene, eye rolling. Still enjoyed. I'll try to finish that Hemsworth thing.
There is no way I am watching this.

The response to this has been... interesting. I'll watch this in two weeks... just have too many other movies on my "to watch" plate.
I can't remember the last Netflix exclusive film I watched. Maybe The Highwaymen counts? I donno.
Blog!
And it's happened once again
I'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands
And sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone
And I've been here for too long
To face this on my own
Well, I guess this is growing up
You would hate it. Dont bother.
Yeah, I don't see why anyone would bother, with anything better to do. It's exactly what you expect.

I'm telling your wife to make you watch it since mine made me.
Oh, she would have no interest in it either. So I'm safe for now. She is eyeing up Eurovision Song Contest though...

I hate shitty will ferrell comedy trash and I laughed and loved a lot at this film.
To be clear, I dont say that as any sort of judgement of you. My wife hates ghost possessiony jump scare movies and most horror in general. I wouldnt recommend her those kinds of movies because duh.
This isnt a transmogrifier movie. No judgements.
No worries, I didn't think that at all. And even if I had thought that, there are worse things for people to judge you on than "Wow, he really doesn't like generic, self-serious action!"
I'll end up watching it. Rachel McAdams will ease the pain.I hate shitty will ferrell comedy trash and I laughed and loved a lot at this film.
