'Bright'

Recommended Posts

Go to RT and see the Bright audience score and then check the audience score of The Last Jedi...  let that sink in.  Fck the critics it's the same crew that praised Harvey Bathrobe Weinstein for the past 30 years Fck them all this whole business is full of ****  there I said it. Go Will! Love your work since I was a kid and I'm sure I'll enjoy Bright as well.

Okay so I’ve seen Bright. I think Will is in good in it and so is Joel Edgerton - I actually felt sorry for Jacoby... but the other characters/actors in the movie would barely be passable in a d grade horror movie... and the villain like in suicide squad is appalling... and the story is completely nonsensical! (She’s after the wand!) is basically the whole plot...

you guys might not put any weight on critics but suicide squad and bright are nowhere near Enemy of the State, 6 Degrees, Bad Boys 2, Men in Black, Hitch and I Am Legend. I seriously don’t think Wills been in a good movie in 10 years. I only watch his movies now because he’s in them but otherwise I wouldn’t bother. I think his movie career is effectively dead at this point.

I wouldn’t call a persons acting career dead when in the last 2 years he’s been nominated for a golden globe, starred in a top 10 grossing movie of 2016, that also won an Oscar, all be it for makeup. I’d say he’s not making the movies he used to so people are put off, but as an actor, he’s the best he’s ever been. Just strikes me that everyone thinks The Fresh Prince couldn’t possibly be an a grade actor.

Anyone under 25 is not interested in a movie from Will Smith... people saw suicide squad because of Margot Robbie and the joker... if bright was released in cinemas it would be another box office failure...it’s like when you see a great actor be in a string of bad movies and then they start to appear in straight to DVD type material. The fact is Will no longer is the drawer he was in the 90s because of continued poor choices in movies...

I'll watch it over Christmas. The trailer looked decent. But we'll see i guess.

If Will goes into the studio with Jeff in January, then Bright will be the last thing on ours and his mind.

A lot of great, successful actors go into that stigma though. Morgan Freeman and Sam Jackson to be exact. Will is 50 nearly, he’s not aiming at the under 25s anymore, he’s aiming to be a better actor, which he is. You’ve gotta remember Will had some blockbusters on some pretty bad films, WWW, Hancock etc. He made bad movies while being successful in the box office, it’s just his roles aren’t blockbuster worthy. 

Netflix won’t give a damn about the critics if the public like and watch it, which seems to be the case.

The movie was weird but fun, some great action scenes and comedy. I put no attention to the critics this is 90% by the public and 33% by critics on rotten tomatoes. F them critics, I watch movies to have fun and this one was right on point

Watched it last night, thought it was brilliant. 

Wills best on screen chemistry since Tommy Lee Jones and a lot of hidden messages that can pertain to our lives now. I truly believe there’s a huge approach at this movie being about racism and prejudice. Is it Oscar worthy? No. Was it meant to be? Absolutely not. 

8.5/10

The people have spoken. I think the critics are just trying to boycott Will and his movies. There is nothing 33% about this fun, action packed movie. They slammed Concussion as well when it was such a brilliant performance and collateral beauty was not a masterpiece but for what it intended to do and it's amazing cast, it was not bad at all.

I try to see movies for what they are. I was watching "jingle all the way" with my wife last night and we laughed and had fun, we did not expect a full action thriller or amazing dramatic performances, we were watching a Christmas family comedy with a message and we enjoyed it as it.
