If not for Smulders, this would have been one of the worst episodes. But her work here goes a long way. In this alleged comedy series it was impressive to see so much genuine pain coming from one character.

That must have been after my time. I remember regular Team-Up. Man, comics used to be great.

Actually, I rather liked MY SON… I was speaking of SALT AND FIRE.

Having said that, I have faith in Hawley based solely on LEGION.

How do you make a Doom film *without* the FF? (I haven't read those comics in several decades, so if there's a way, please be kind with your feedback.)

Want me to watch your show, whether it turns out to be good or bad? Cast Shannon, who I will watch in ANYthing, even a really awful Herzog flick.

Most of these episodes had one or several moments that deeply irritated me, no matter how much I found funny or how much I bought Smulder's increasingly pained portrayal. Here it was the lotion thing. If Ethan had taken a moment, washed his hands thoroughly and dried them, it wouldn't be a problem. But then we get…

Every time they cut back to Belushi and he had a new irritated/baffled expression, I was loving that.

The YA subplot, like the affair, ends in what I consider to be a real cheat. I wish the writing had been stronger.

The wedding dress bit, and the general reactions of the crew to the play, were my favorite moments in the entire series.

It is a show where a lot of fleeting words and gestures have far more impact than whole characterizations.

I've watched all 8 episodes, and to be fair, there is some thing (or things) in each episode that made me laugh out loud, and I guess that's what was intended. But no one is relatable (and worse, Parisse & Key's characters are deeply unlikable for very different reasons), and many of the antics are grating. If there's…

Oh well.

Unlike (it appears) 90% of AVC commenters, I am a fan of Ayer's work prior to SS. But that was really a rough watch. I'm hoping he will stick with original projects going forward, and avoid remakes/reboots…and comic books.

I don't know that review length is necessarily a signifier of the critic's honesty. IV strikes me as an honorable critic, one who would not kick out without saying so in said review. Having said that, I likely wouldn't watch this anyway because I have problems with uncomfortable representations of the human body. So…

For a review in which almost nothing positive is said about the film, a C doesn't seem like a low enough grade.

Crude as that comment was, I find I cannot disagree. Also: your name made me snort-laugh. Kudos.

I didn't find them quite as satisfying, but I like that they're doing some quick attempts alongside the heavier stuff.

Now that I've watched it, I can say it's rather telling that the most inspired moment involved not cyclists but a bitter Phylicia Rashad and a Muppet. But narratively speaking it seems they missed a golden opportunity not to reunite the two characters who were separated in the 25 years since the Tour. I have now…

Greatly enjoyed this when I saw it. Brevity and humor made me appreciate it more than RAKKA and FIREBASE. Still, I like Blomkamp's overall concept and they're all extremely well-made.
