"The last movie she saw that made her cry was Hacksaw Ridge, a pretty emotional movie about a soldier in World War II. She revealed that she feels the most creative when she is sad, which explains why she might gravitate toward "depressing things.""

One of Jerry Goldsmith's final scores

The villain's plan is laughably stupid
The tone is dour and depressing, feels nothing like TNG
Constant continuity errors with the show
A piss poor send off for the TNG crew. They deserved much better than this.
Wastes the Romulans in their first major role in a movie
Just awful
The worst TNG movie by leaps and bounds. Nemesis is just awful to watch. It's dour and depressing for no reason and the plot is consistently stupid. It's just unpleasant, no joy to be found at all.

Awesome on Audiobook
The Girl on the Train on audio book with the 3 different voice actors was sensational. The main character is very depressing but it works really well for the story. It's like the ultimate girl drama that ends in murder. Intense.

The dialogue sounded really unnatural - at times like a couple of five year old talking! Not a lot really happened in terms of the plot, I found it profoundly depressing and am struggling to see what the book is trying to say and why it's considered a classic.

Horrible.

Never read this. It's so sad, dark, and depressing. What a horrible ending. If you want to know about cults, go watch the Kool-Aid Cult documentary - This book is just a knock-off of that. It's labelled as "dystopian" but it's definitely not, it's just freaky.

I won't lie, Kim practically ripped my heart out with this one. But, in all honesty, it was kind of a struggle to keep interest through the first half. When it starts to get good, it suddenly gets depressing, but the masochist within myself was unable to stop reading.

"A film as depressing as it is inspiring. Heartbreaking, thoughtful, fascinating. Bitter and sweet, cool and creepy. It kinda makes you want to become an artist, and kinda makes you want to slit your wrists. It washes over you—leaving you really wanting to take a shower and wash it off"

"I’ve read a lot about climate change. Mostly it’s depressing—which isn’t a good reason to not understand it. But this book from Amory Lovins and his Rocky Mountain Institute is an antidote for doom and gloom. It offers a thoroughly researched set of options for engineering our way out of the crisis."

Truly dark and depressing but intelligently conceived sci-fi movies that will be forever compared to the Matrix.
It doesn't have half of the budget its rival had which is probably the reason it didn't do half as well.
One of Alex Proyas best alongside The Crow and I Robot. Unmissable and a classic

Not what I expected
Contains spoilers, click to show
This appears to be a children's book and I suppose it approached the subject of Death rather delicately but it was really depressing. I must say that I didn't care for the story much even tho this is all to real for alot of people , I can't see how this would help someone.
