What's new

Netflix recs?

I can't agree more. Worst Superman movie by far.
I wouldn’t go that far. Superman IV is all-time bad. III isn’t good nor is the one with Routh.

This just had no tone or mood. I didn’t care about anyone. The lead was solid. So was Lois. Hoult wasn’t bad but as always he brings nothing to the table and yet he continues to be cast. I’m convinced he’s someone’s cuck. It was far too loud and actiony and dark. IMO of course. And maybe it’s worst issue is it’s just another Superman film with Lex Luthor. I’m done with him. Bring something else new to the table.

I was getting more at the iteration of Superman not necessarily the actual movie, so I should have clarified. Yeah some of those sequels were terrible but Reeves iteration of Superman was leaps and bounds better.
 
Half an hour into “Untamed” and you got an Aussie (Bana) and a Kiwi (Sam Neil) doing their best to imitate American accent and trying to solve a murder on the Yosemite.

I just can’t help but laugh.. lol..

This is like watching Kate Winslet (English) trying to solve the murder on the Mare of Easttown all over again.

yeah that was such strange casting
 
Reeves WAS Superman. So long ago now I'm sure many if not most don't even know what we're talking about.
Yeah casual fans especially. But he was fantastic. Brought a quiet dignity to the role that it needs.
 
Also a little pet peeve of mine…

Why is it always the white hero/heroine trying to solve a murder with a minority race actor/actress as the side kick (or lesser roles)?

- Bana with Untamed… (Latino sidekick)

- Foster with True detective (American Indian characters)

- Daniel Craig with Knives out (the Latino help)

- The Residence - detective is black but side kick is Asian.

Is this like a new “trend” or something?
LOL.. Bana’s Latino sidekick actually got called a “sidekick” by another character in Ep 4 … lol..

Great writing to drive home the point!!!

Unbelievable.
