LOL - Chi ride è fuori (2021)
Very unfunny
Bellissima idea, ma i comici, eccetto qualche sprazzo di Elio e Lillo, sono penosi, e le battute e le gag erano in genere cosi' poco divertenti che c'era da sentirsi imbarazzati per i comici. Non so, magari sono bravi con del materiale preparato in anticipo, ma qui davvero non ci siamo. Magari da rifare con comici magari meno famosi, ma che sappiano improvvisare.
Great idea, but apart from a few really funny moments from Elio and Lillo, the rest of the gags and jokes were embarrassingly unfunny. Maybe these guys are good with prepared material, but improvisation is really not their forte. Overall, very boring.

Wonderful
I absolutely loved this series. The story is intriguing from the start: a corpse is found on the bridge between Denmark and Sweden, carefully positioned so that each half is in a different country. The story that evolves from there is satisfactorily complex, without getting silly, and full of suspense. There are a lot of interesting characters in the series, but the stars are the two investigators. Saga Noren, who clearly has a fairly serious Asperger syndrome, mixes an infuriating lack of understanding of people's feelings with an endearing innocence and admirable honesty. Martin Rohde, a more traditional investigator, is a man that often doesn't really think about the consequences of his actions,and is willing to break rules. The relationship between these two provides a lot of interest and plenty of really entertaining moments. Everything is greatabout this series - the story, the ending, the characters, the music,the photography (the night shots of the bridge and the city that are interspersed during the series are mesmerising). More like this please!

Stupid and boring beyond belief
Everything's awful about this film: writing, acting, special effects, directing. For instance, you would think that the original story would be interesting enough on its own; what need was there to do something so stupid as adding RCS and trolls? And in this age where special effects can be so sophisticated, why have a film that just looks like a video game? It's one of those films where you feel faintly embarrassed for the actors who have to utter such idiotic lines, and whose name will be forever associated with such a stinker. I suppose if you're a spotty 15 years old addicted to video games you'll probably love it (and that, I suspect, explains a lot of the high ratings) but this is arguably as far from decent cinema as you can get. Learn from my mistake, and save your money...
