Superior to the first two in every way possible. The pacing is so much better even though this one is longer than both its predecessors. I actually liked all the characters this time around too.
This is easily the most work I had to put into watching a Best Picture winner, but it was more than worth the payoff.
Gollum really said "yes i did that and you would do it too for a check.".
Let it be known that about an hour and a half into this, I realized I don't care about any of these characters. I don't even think I actually know half their names. It's not even bad, but I'm not interested at all.
The best part of watching a super prolific movie like this twenty years after it came out is telling my friends where I know all the actors from.
Elijah Wood? Wilfred. Viggo Mortensen? Green Book. Ian McKellen? Being gay and X-Men. Christopher Lee? CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY.
I enjoyed the bleakness of this one. More Josh Brolin love is needed. Javier Bardem did a good job as the fifth member of The Beatles.
what a snooze fest. every character is unlikeable. the camera work is obnoxious. the only saving grace of this thing is the bomb diffusing scenes. but you're more than welcome to watch this if you want to see Jeremy Renner play himself for two hours.
Definitely entertaining. I had to break it up into two halves though. Jean Dujardin is phenomenal. Also, shoutout to Uggie the Dog.
