The latest one feels... yeah, like you said, inside a video game - some of the scenes are just very very smooth, like it is something you would expect watching cinematics in video gamesKGthePrince wrote: βThu Jan 22, 2026 2:18 pm These movies may be trash but they are so much fun to watch onin imax 3D. It literally felt like being inside a video game.
My sentiments exactly. In the long time between the first and second movie, I completely lost interest.
Like just the visuals or the story, acting etc etc?Adamthinks wrote: βTue Jan 27, 2026 6:49 pm I guess I'm the only one here that really enjoyed all of them. Incredible theatre experiences, especially on a super giant IMAX screen.
I liked it in general. It's not breaking new ground, but they did everything well and were fun movies.KGthePrince wrote: βTue Jan 27, 2026 7:04 pmLike just the visuals or the story, acting etc etc?Adamthinks wrote: βTue Jan 27, 2026 6:49 pm I guess I'm the only one here that really enjoyed all of them.

Not the only one, Mr. Thinks. I get why some people don't care for them, but I was thoroughly entertained and awestruck by many of the visuals.Adamthinks wrote: βTue Jan 27, 2026 6:49 pm I guess I'm the only one here that really enjoyed all of them.

People here calling the series "trash" and "pile of shit" is out of this world. Production effort, visuals and technology aside, the films doesn't have any message other than "don't smurf the environment". I don't see how anyone can go wrong with that.laitostarr777 wrote: βWed Jan 28, 2026 12:36 am The film series is great and all - all those achievements in CGIs generating an imaginable world... but after the first one, I've felt that the franchise is overhyped

So because the movie has a good message means its good?Disenchanted_11 wrote: βWed Jan 28, 2026 8:17 pmPeople here calling the series "trash" and "pile of shit" is out of this world.

I believe it should be the last film where they get away with the theme/story repetition. They should re-invent it for the next 2 planned sequels.laitostarr777 wrote: βThu Jan 29, 2026 12:48 am I am NOT implying the movie franchise is bad - itβs just over-hyped. Thereβs a difference.
I can think that a story is poorly written and acted even if the underlying message is one that resonates with me. I felt the same about 2012 (the movie).Disenchanted_11 wrote: βWed Jan 28, 2026 8:17 pmPeople here calling the series "trash" and "pile of shit" is out of this world.
