something was missing here. part of it was Gosling just isnt a strong enough song and dance man

Split was borderline B-, its nice to see a horror film that isnt full of the typical genre stupidity. the end spoil was a nice moment

So Who Saw What Last Week? {nm} tealfan Jan 23, 08:49

Sicario (B-)...minus because they made Emily look scared and incompetent rather than strong & capable like her past heroines {nm} tealfan Jan 23, 08:49

Del toro's performance was extremely overrated in that movie. And that forced signature ending was stupid. {nm} adrenalin112 Jan 23, 08:54

She's a strong person but an individual being played by the system. Scared, maybe, but not incompetant. {nm} numbersix_99 Jan 23, 09:08

I'm still trying to figure out the point of her banging her night vision helmet on that beam like a Stormtrooper =P {nm} tealfan Jan 23, 12:34

I liked that. It's realistic. People make mistakes in unclear situations. Happens to everyone. It's why I like Aliens so much ;) {nm} numbersix_99 Jan 23, 15:18

I think the film is pretty careful to establish Kate Macer's competence from the top, and I think it is a virtue of SICAR that. . . second gary Jan 23, 09:23

Yep (spoils) RogerMore Jan 23, 10:34

I agree that they established it at the beginning...but then her character did a complete 180 the rest of the movie, I thought... tealfan Jan 23, 12:39
