The first two parts are good.

Yes, I agree. It's rare to find a film where the first part is worse than the second or third.

I like the first one. The dog in it is so funny :D

And in the third one, there's such a cute bird...

Watched Watchmen.

I didn't like the movie; I give it a 3/10.

The worst of the not-so-great series.

Also, the 4th and 5th films; the 6th one seems better than these two.

I didn't like the movie; I give it a 3/10.

Not for everyone.

Four and five are still better than these two.

I disagree. A couple of weeks ago, I rewatched them all in a row. There's an obvious pattern: the further you go, the worse they get. The fourth one is still decent compared to the following ones.

But, for example, The Prestige, which I just finished watching, I really enjoyed. It's a great movie. Even the somewhat unconventional fantasy ending doesn't spoil the impression; the movie is just that good. It didn't make me want to fast-forward or turn it off for a single second; instead, it sparked a burning curiosity throughout the viewing.

Quite the opposite.

Really? I've noticed that trend too (Shrek, Taxi, etc.). Usually, the first part is ideologically complete, so creating the rest requires pulling the plot out of thin air.

Although Harry Potter is a slightly different case.

You're right, that was my mistake. I got confused and didn't read it properly. Yes, sequels are often worse than the original.
I just watched The Illusionist, and it's just terrible. Don't bother watching it.

An obvious pattern – the further you go, the worse it gets. The fourth one is still not bad compared to the next ones.

Usually, that's how it is in all movies;), I don't know, I think the 6th one turned out better than the 4th, and especially the 5th. Although neither the 4th nor the 5th, nor the 6th reach the level of the 1st and 2nd. And in the 4th, Harry and Ron have such funny hairstyles :D.

And, for example, The Prestige, which I just finished watching, I really liked. A great movie, I can say.

I like it too, I've already watched it 3 times, and it's still interesting to watch.

Recently, I watched Whisper, a very interesting and intriguing horror movie. The film has many interesting twists, and some moments are chilling. It reminds me a lot of the thriller The Omen.
I also watched the movie The Bunker, about the last days of Hitler and those close to him. The film is based on the memories of Traudl Junge, Hitler's secretary. While watching, I never felt the urge to fast-forward. I recommend it to everyone...

Fever. I once saw it on TV; it was called "forest fever." I remember I was going to switch channels, but it caught my attention, and I watched it until the end; now, of course, I've rewatched it. It's like a thriller about another group of teenagers who went on vacation, but it's not about a killer; it's about a deadly disease. It's not a masterpiece, and it's not even an "excellent film," but it's just a good one. Genre fans will enjoy it. It has a humorous ending, which releases all the accumulated tension.

Watched a few things. Dust. A good film, it makes you think about a lot of things. I can't really name the genre, something like art-house. Lots of diverse images, you can put them together into a single picture if you want, but few people will want to do that. Megamind. A cartoon, not bad. Funny, pleasant, kind, bright, good! Overall, it's okay. Titan A.E. Another cartoon. The events after the Earth's destruction. I liked it. Sky, you can safely watch it.

vampires suck, I recommend it to those who haven't seen it – it's an orcish parody.

I watched it. It's rare garbage.

Watched:

Robin Hood (with Russell Crowe) - didn't like it:( The actor doesn't fit the type, in my opinion, and it's all filmed like a backstory to the legend, which I don't really enjoy. They should have named it something else.

500 Days of Summer - I liked this one, it's lively and even a bit crazy. But it gives you something to think about.

Eat Pray Love - having trouble falling asleep? Start watching this movie:)

What Men Talk About - funny, lively, and relaxing.

New Year's Eve - a movie about three silly girls, three smart guys, and one idiot. It's okay, but Johansson makes me feel sick.

Prince of Persia - just a fairy tale.

Love Happens - booooring.

That's all for now:)

Oldboy. An unrealistic drama with a contrived ending, a forced motivation for the "antagonist," a promising start, and a complete lack of any feelings while watching – neither boredom nor interest. I'd give it a "three," but I might be yelled at for being a simple viewer who didn't appreciate the depth of Korean arthouse cinema. Nevertheless, a three. Tom in Love. Okay, you can even watch it a second time in about five years. Alternatively. MD House, season six. If previously the concentration of interesting episodes was three to four per season, then in this case, I can barely remember even one that was intriguing. Enough said.

Tekken's plot seemed primitive for some reason; the main character fights for money and then for the freedom of the world. I recommend watching it if you've played the game, and I recommend it in general...
Step Up 3D was released in the summer, but I only watched it now. I liked it; they dance great... The plot is interesting, sometimes quite simple, but I repeat, it's interesting. I recommend watching it if you haven't seen it...
Skyline reminds me of War of the Worlds; the film looks great and is visually stunning. Some moments are impressive in their scale...

Robin Hood (with Russell Crowe) - I didn't like it.

It's quite a mess. I barely made it to the end, and even skipped some parts. Although, it depends on personal preference.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.
Well... it's very charming and fairytale-like, a happy ending, love and romance, in general, everything as it should be in a fairytale. The plot has been significantly altered, and I don't understand why they did it. Here, you have a ready-made plot; take it and make a movie, but no, they had to change the names of the characters, the history of the prince himself, who suddenly wasn't born a prince but was found at the market by the king, and so on... I don't know why they did it. Let's see what happens when they make the second part... I bet they'll make it the same way, although the spirit of the game is still present in the film... just a little bit.

The plot was certainly heavily altered, and I can't understand why they did that.

But what's the point of making an exact copy? And what's the point of watching it, knowing exactly what will happen next? :)

Personally, I really hope that the second part of the movie will be based on the second game, which in my opinion is the best in the series. The atmosphere there is amazing, and with minor changes, it could be wonderfully conveyed in the film. As for the movie that has already been released, I liked it. Not very much, but it is noticeably better than a number of other truly unsuccessful game adaptations.

What's the point of making a carbon copy? And what's the fun in watching it, knowing exactly what will happen next?

The point is to watch how it's filmed. And if you take a different plot, then the title should be different too:)

The Tekken plot seemed primitive; the main character fights for money.

The hero constantly remembers his mother. You can only laugh at this movie.
