      Edit: For does liking my comment because they think I’m bashing the movie, no. I’m making fun of the dumbass who made the original comment. The movie is already over $900M and is expected to make over a billion by next weekend, that sure is a lot of people going multiple times and telling their friends how great it is for a movie that according to you can only be enjoyed “ironically”. You know what movies are enjoyed ironically? Shit like The Room and that movie made literal pennies at the box office

      superhero elements, edgy comedy, and horror elements chucked in a pot and stewed together. And then the chef fell over, and there's just mess all over the place. That's what this movie is like for me.
      To make a comparison, It was like the Room for me. A B-list movie at best. Broken and uncomfortable in unintended ways at worse.
      With characters that are hard to care about, jump scares, a forgettable soundtrack, obnoxiously loud fight scenes, confused structure and pace of beginning-middle-end. I was laughing at the movie, not with it. And the garbage chicken scene really got to me.

I have never understood why people care so much about the soundtrack unless it's bad, I liked Infinity War but there's only one really memorable song in that movie. 3rd I think loud fight scenes is a problem on your end (volume wise) and have you seen LOTR? That movie is critically acclaimed and has volume issues. 4th I think a story is generally supposed to have a beginning, middle, and end, pacing wise it was a short movie and never felt too fast and couldn't be too slow because an hour 30 isn't a long time. 5th, I think caring about characters is subjective, you can't gauge caring because people care about different things. As for jumpscares I think there was one or two, that was a dealbreaker for you?

    I’m surprised you didn’t mention how awful the Atlantian troops looked like (you know the ones in white armor) and how dumb their outfits and weapons looked like, they looked like toys in my opinion instead of hyper-advanced weapons that can disintegrate a person.

    The idea that because the Atlantians can't communicate with the sea life, but can domesticate them being ridiculous is so utterly stupid that it ruined this entire video/review for me. Humans ride horses but we can't communicate with them right? The whole thing was laughable. I give this one a 4 out of 10.

    • @blarg2429
      @blarg2429 Před 5 lety +1

      You can train horses to respond to specific words and phrases as well as certain nonverbal cues. In other words, we can communicate with them even though they cannot communicate with us, whereas we genuinely cannot communicate with sharks and various other sea life (there are _some_ sea creatures we can also communicate with, mind you).
      Also, the sharks in particular could not sit still in a battle line as seen in the film, because sharks can only breathe when in motion, so there's another glaring problem. But look, if you enjoyed the movie, good for you. It's just that you're bad and should feel bad WRT this comment of yours. :P

The point I'm making is that obsessing over minor inconsistencies, or unrealistic scenes in movies (especially in super hero movies) not only isn't legitimate criticism, but is incredibly annoying.
