Good fun
All good fun and I found myself chuckling on occasion. With Jason Sudeikis starring I knew there'd be some bawdy humour, as evidenced by the showing of a swollen testicle and one of the other characters referring to her sex life as "throwing a hotdog down a hallway". I don't particularly like that puerile stuff but putting it aside this film was entertaining enough as we watch 4 acquaintances become a pretend family who then develop a warmth and love for each other, all the while trying to transport marijuana in an RV from Mexico to America whilst being pursued by a drug boss. It's not cerebral in anyway so just an easy watch.

Drax and his laugh
Funny
Colorful, amazing visuals, especially if you watch it in 4k
I didn’t really care for the villain in this movie. However, I still really liked the movie. The visuals were amazing. Baby Groot is the cutest, and I just about cried when the ravagers took him. It was still funny, but it lost a little humor compared to the first one. Every time Drax laughed I couldn’t help but laugh too. I’m interested to see what happens when they meet up with the avengers in the next avengers movie. I’m a little sad that Groot will be a teenager by then though. Still a fun and entertaining watch.

Tons of branching paths to take
Wrong Path Mate
It's pretty impossible to talk about Bandersnatch without spoiling the entire thing, which I don't want to do because I feel as though everyone should give it a watch. That being said, if you don't like Black Mirror, you're not going to like this. It's got the same bleak tone that the rest of the series has. Don't go into this expecting a happy ending. It's branching pathways make for a unique viewing experience that took me back to my childhood playing VHS adventure games. I'd say give it a watch, but set aside enough time to explore the branching pathways.

Feel Good
So I went into this movie only ever having seen the trailer before another movie and so I was expecting some action film about a bodyguard.... HOW WRONG WAS I!!
This film was beautiful, heart wrenching in places, down to earth and a complete joy to watch.
There is such a journey during this movie both physically and metaphorically, between the two main characters, and watching their relationship grow was humbling and beautiful.
So even though this was not what I was expecting I think it ended up being so much more and I would urge anyone who had even the slightest though of 'oh that looks interesting' to take the leap and watch it when you get a chance.

love it
i like to watch this while im at the gym because it just so good that while it is on i can forget about how tried i am. the show manages to strike a balance between being comedic and serious.
the show does not fall to the common challenge of most comedies to not have stupid comedy in there. you know the one right? the kind that makes you cringe.
well I'm very glad to say you'll find none of that here.
you should definitely watch this I've yet to find someone who doesn't like it so give it a go even if your not a typical police show fan or a fan of comedy's because this show really is much more than that.

Product placement was ridiculous
Forgettable characters
One huge commercial
I loved Wreck It, Ralph, so that might be why I wasn't too big of a fan of this sequel. Where the first film had a warmth about it, this one is just cold. The obvious advertisements took away from the story, what little there was of a story. The internet, while supposed to look like a place of wonder, looked dull & uninteresting. Even the Twisted Metal (or GTA) world, was nothing special. And the characters found within were forgettable to say the least. I found over-all the film was okay, but I would watch the first one again & again, while this one, I probably wouldn't watch again at all.

Can't get much more 80's than this!
In my experience, few films have had such a different range of reviews by gender than this film. Most women I know utterly hate everything about this goofy 80s campfest starring Kurt Russell at his best while men seem to eat up all the cheesy one liners and mediocre story and visual effects.
I watch this movie a lot when I was a teenager.When revisiting it as an adult, I can see why some people can't get into it as it does look dated now, but it will always be a guilty pleasure for me.
What a perfect blend of comedy, action, romance, sci-fi and fantasy all rolled into one.

A crazy, interesting ride
Since I am a huge Gilliam fan, I was excited to watch this film. From the very first frame you are sucked in to this unusual, sometimes hilarious, sometimes detestable adventure of two men doing drugs, booze women all while in Vegas for a convention.
Some of the movie doesn't make much sense, the voice over helps a little. The awkward situations the two men get into and some of the unique people they encounter are my favorite parts.
Maybe I lost some of the point since I have only seen it sober? Not sure about that.
I do know it was one of the most stolen and/or never returned films in the history of Hollywood Video.

I created a video explaining my slow decent into hating this series, book by book, for your viewing pleasure:
Ah this book... I'd say it's one of the worst in the series. Book 3 made me realize that this series was only following a template, but this book... It was the one that made me aware of the little sprout of annoyance I had towards this series, growing inside me. The template was bad enough, but now we could top it off with sudden character changes, inconsistent storytelling, and just a boring book all around. I complain a lot about this book in my spoiler video, and for good reason...
