You can’t be serious. It was TERRIBLE. I was legitimately shocked by just how awful it was. Between giving this an A- and the ridiculous Lisa Frankenstein review, this site has lost every last shred of credibility.

How on earth did this deserve an A- grade? How much were you paid?

I would have never expected this show to lean so hard on the supernatural and mystical. I’m surprised that more people aren’t offended at this portrayal of the indigenous as a magical, superstitious group of sage super detectives. It reduces a compelling story of an indigenous death, townie indifference, and corporate…
This is how I feel about every season of True Detective. Even Season 1 was poorly written and trite and obnoxious. The only thing that makes that one a little better is it had more compelling characters and good direction, but it still sucks. You can’t overcome writing and storylines that are that bad. Season 2 was…
Just rewatched season one. Made me realise just how little investigation work there is in Night Country. Like a ridiculous lack of police investigation work! I saw better investigational work in Paul Blart Mall Cop.
Hoo boy, that was 10 pounds of narrative shit stuffed into a five pound bag.
The supernatural shit was so silly. The one dude sitting up in bed and speaking in the demon voice about Navarro’s mother during the hospital riot... the security camera shot with the ghost or whatever appearing behind her... etc.... It was all so unnecessary. Do people not remember that nothing actually…
I was pretty excited to and like you when the talk of the season 1 references became a big part of the press prior to the premiere I got a little put off. Then I really tried to like it but... nothing. For six episodes nothing compelling really happened. Then there is all the supernatural stuff which was dialed up to…
I was genuinely excited for this season, especially for Foster, Hawkes, Eccleston, and Shaw. Saw a couple interviews with Lopez that quelled that a bit but was still cautiously optimistic. I’m glad I waited til today to binge this because this was a sloppy, disjointed mess. The acting was the only good thing about it,…
Are you serious? This was horrible.
Jodie Foster died for this wet fart of a season.
What an absolute dumpster fire this Season 1 rip-off was.
A lot of the story in the book is told through internal monologue. Denis ripped all of that out and replaced it with nothing. The movie was just the series of events that happened in the book without most of the character and subtext. If the movie didn’t have the legendary book lending it prestige, I think it would be…
FUCKING hell I could go my entire fucking life if I never saw an article that uses the word “we” when the author clearly means “I, here, in my bedroom, lacking equitable remuneration and health insurance” or the headline locution “Science says” ever the fuck again.
When I discovered The AV Club it was all down to Sean O’Neill’s writing, and I don’t think I ever realised how good we had it until everything went wrong. But he really did an incredible job making some very mundane stories enjoyable to read, day after day after day, and it was via his writing that I discovered that he…
Plus her completely monotone delivery of the whole thing.
They don’t even need to be trolled. They are begging people to make them so they can keep cashing checks from Marvel. It’s like buying things you don’t want because you get frequent flier miles for them.
The sort of movie that has no blooper reel because all the mistakes are in the final cut and no one gave a shit.
This is the fourth of these movies, the first three were bad, and all of them have been made for the sole reason of Sony holding onto some rights over a character that can’t appear in them, but makes them money when someone else makes movies with him.
