How was the movie?
Person A
I had high expectations for this film. It’s a sequel I had been looking forward to since the end of the last one. I even went to the cinema alone so that I wouldn’t be interrupted by anyone. But, was I ever let down! The special effects were so unrealistic and poorly done. There was very little character development and too many plot holes in the story line. I can’t believe I waited a whole year for that. The only saving grace was the lead actor. He played his part well, but I can’t say the same for the others.
Person B
I don’t really like watching movies in the cinema. I would much rather stay in and stream one at home. My friends really wanted to see this new film, so I joined them on a whim. The tickets cost an arm and a leg and I couldn’t believe the prices for concessions! I could buy 3 packages of popcorn at the supermarket for the price of medium size! Was the movie good? Well, yes, it was alright, but I could have done without spending all that money!
Person C
Normally, I avoid films that are based on books that I have read. I don’t feel like they ever do the literature any justice. However, this one was the exception. The director really respected the author’s vision and included all the necessary plot points. Of course, some details were missing, but if they were included, the film would be like 6 hours long. The set was also amazing. Overall, I can’t find a flaw! That being said, I still don’t think I’ll watch any other book-based movies.
Person D
I can’t stand musicals. I think there are too many dance numbers and not enough content. So, I was hesitant when my girlfriend wanted to go watch one. I can’t believe I am admitting it, but it blew me away! The emotion of the actors was incredible. I laughed. I cried. I did think it could include a bit more dialogue though. Action films are still my favourite, but I definitely will give musicals another chance after enjoying this one so much.
