Excellent, Without a doubt!!
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
My story began with Arrow, from which most of the "Legends" immigrated. It was OK so far. Boring episodes changing for better ones and back. Regular stuff. But this time around the self-righteous men-hating writers just over-did it. The last night's episode is over the tolerance level for me. Filled with SJW and extreme feminism propaganda, this show parts way with me. Good riddance.
This show had promise - for the first 20 minutes of the first episode, but after that, the motto, "Abandon Hope, All Ye Who Enter Here," kept running thru my mind and I could not turn it off. I stuck it out for 8 episodes, ("Hope springs Eternal") but once again yet another CW show falls victim to excruciatingly poor writing. I'd guess the writing is around the level of a 15 year old, except when they are fighting. Then it drops down to what I remember myself being at 12 and playing Cowboys and Indians. I liked it best when the Indians won, and in this show, well...The show centers around time travel and the Time Masters, a group who watch over various time periods. So, this should be cool to have people travel thru time, yes? Shouldn't be too hard to make it interesting. No fear. It's not.There is the customary genius (Victor Garber), the customary Angry Men, and two women, one of whom is an assassin, and the other can, thru a totem she wears, take on the powers of whatever animal she mentally envisions.The story lines are decent, but one wonders if anyone took acting classes. Each person runs the entire gamut of emotion from A to B, as Dorothy Parker once said of a performance by Katharine Hepburn (look 'er. up if you're that young). That is to say, not much range. The travels thru time never include adapting the speech of the times, and oddly enough, the local people- no matter what century - seem to also speak in 20th century English. This lessens the ability to suspend disbelief. In fact, if you turn the volume off and just watch the expressions, you'd be able to tell the plot just by their actions. I hope to, one day, actually watch a show on CW that doesn't remind me of watching and listening to a group of adolescents. But this is not that show.
I think the script writers are lost in words or brain.. they do really know how to screw a show.. Terrible terrible last episodes do not make any sense.. I wonder what is really happening in these shows..??? Legends became screwed heads.. according to story one male and female will kiss..until you bring them to action..lots of boring stuff you put in there.. an honorable man of his time i.e. 1776 starts to be a jackass so screwing the history is OK.but shouldn't be that boring man....
OK here is the rub you have a guy who can only be killed a certain way and the world is on the brink of annihilation in the future, what do you do? Well you recruit the worst super heroes of all time that's what. For some reason these guys of mixed super hero ability can not seem just kill one guy and the series is drawn out with incompetent action sequences and terrible story lines. This whole show should have been over in like 3 episodes, but somehow they seem to use every time line to basically mess things up and make matters worse. The effects are probably the best part of the show with some nifty CGI and sets. There really needs to be more bad characters as everything is focused on one guy and the heroes don't seem to be half bothered about getting the job done as they have so many issues themselves.Overall the show is watchable just don't expect Flash or Arrow watchable.
