Review of Bright (2017) by Boomba66 — 22 Dec 2017
Critics are afraid they will lose their meal ticket if streaming movies on NETflix are better then the 200 million dollar Disney star wars garbage.
This movie has several things going for it that are apparently over the critics heads. 1. World Building and Mythology. This world draws you in, it makes you want to know more about the Darklord, the orcs the elves.....Its the Shadowrun universe essentially.
2. Good stars being stars. They let the stars of the movie shine BRIGHT. 3. Good fun action and campy 80's like action movie one liners. "We going to **** bar die." It has its flaws some of the action seems to stutter, from re-shoots or editing sometimes it jumps around a bit in a weird way. It also doesn't build the baddies up quiet enough despite the lead elf really seeming like an interesting character.
On top of this, you can literally see this for half the price of a movie theater movie finish your two hours then jump to its other awesome content.
Great Job Netflix. I would love to see a 12 part series set in this world to continue to build its back story and mythology.
