The Creator new sci-fi movie from Gareth Edwards

[MessiahDecoy123]

I thought the movie was pretty good.

I don't get the backlash.

Yeah I saw it today and I was really into it. I thought it was emotionally engaging and visually stunning. At the very least, it looks better that 90% of movies out there with 2-3 times the budget. My date was crying by the end; it didn’t move me quite that much but I was still invested in the characters. JDW, Chan and Janney were all excellent. Someone tell Ralph Ineson to stop doing an American accent though because he sounds way more intimidating when he speaks with his normal accent.

How "The Creator" Did Big VFX On A Budget - Dark Horizons

The cost of film production has been a big topic of late, with the enormous near $300 million budgets of the recent “Misson: Impossible” and “Indiana Jones” sequels seen as symptoms of an unsustainable model. On the flipside, movies like “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” coming in at a comparatively...

The Creator

It's crazy to think Neill Blomkamp made a movie this year and it wasn't this.

MY FULL REVIEW
4/5

DOA at the box office. Going to lose a lot of money.

I don't get the backlash.

"Backlash", if there really is any, is to the idea that the world was about to get their new T2, Fury Road, 2049, etc. from Gareth Edwards of all people.

JDW isn't much of a draw yet either. He certainly doesn't have his Dad's spark/charisma on screen.

This movie was both weirdly over-hyped and under-promoted.

I've yet to see a JDW role where he DOES have charisma. He seems to be getting cast in these vapid, blank faced roles. I feel like he has it in him but he's not choosing projects that bring the charisma out of him.

BlacKkKlansman

Thats true, he was pretty good in BlacKkKlansman.

Despite a predictable plot, I enjoyed this one a good bit. Surprised people saying they felt nothing watching this, as I felt the last 30 mins or so especially were quite emotionally charged. Some really cool sequence's in the movie and other directors should be ashamed they can't make a movie this good looking with over double the budget.

I thought JDW, Chan and Janney were all really good in their roles, and the kid also considering it's her first role. 7.5/10.

I fell asleep about half way. An absolute snooze fest.

My wife and I saw this the other day and we both loved it.

Finally got around to seeing this, I loved the visuals and world building, last act felt rushed, but it was an enjoyable time.

This was the very definition of mid.

Finally caught this and ....meh. It was OK. Well shot and directed but i did not feel anything and I feel like I was supposed to.

Watched this last night and came off it very frustrated. Because, the aesthetics were fantastic - and believable - blending new technology with traditional architecture and human clothing and so on to make it really look like a world 40 years from now. The plot was intriguing and the first third of the film really had me invested in where it was going.

Then it devolved into a repetitive series of plot holes and questionable choices. It felt like the screenplay just fell apart and worked towards a climatic point that had already been written regardless of how weak the foundations were throughout the movie.

I struggle to understand also how JDW keeps getting lead roles. He seems to have 2 expressions and is utterly devoid of the usual leading man charisma; maybe they expect it to suddenly appear because his father has it in spades, maybe it’s just nepotism, I don’t know.
