Contains spoilers · Show review
Worst pacing of all time, all the random bullshit slow pacing garbage they did in previous episodes caused the finale to be a pile of shit that felt so unrewarding and incredibly rushed, 2min fights, quick scenes to end subplots and to move the main plot as fast as possible. Soldier boy is completely stupid in this show, sage also because why is she the one testing kimikos blast. And onto kimikos blast, this is such poor writing, all throughout the season it is constant slow paced plots with resets every episodes, and now the final important method is introduced on the penultimate. And i am sick of the ready grotesque shit that doesn’t serve the plot, back then it did, like s3, but this dog and cat thing, waste of time because the writers think that’s what we like, mf get to the plot. So many things unresolved, so many character arcs rushed because of this. And once again gen v kids absolutely waste screen time just for Canada duty. The writers truly fucked their show over for spinoffs, which is so ironic because that’s what vought do. I genuinely hate the writers for how they did s5, ruined what once was a 10/10 show
The Devil Wears Prada 22026
Not worth going to the theater at all, from start to finish gives off Netflix movie slop vibes. The plot points are random and forced. Completely lost the charm of the first one. Sorry but Nigel’s voice annoyed me, did he get veneers? Hate the two assistants, based on the last movie and Andrea’s tasks, how did the big boned guy get the job? It’s always so corny when they try to incorporate tech and social media, the obviously placed couple of memes to drive plot. And Jin chao bro? One of those cringy Netflix film characters again. Lastly, Andreas love interest is ugly asf no offense he doesn’t fit w her or the movie, like his face looked so out of place in this movie. And all of his parts can be cut from the story and have no impact. All the side characters lacked emotion and depth, Miranda’s husband for example, in the last film they all added something and felt real, this just felt like some random drama shit. Not to mention the entire tone and colors of the movie were just bland. I do like that they finally let the other characters have more growth, Miranda, Nigel and Emily. Because they remained kinda the same in the first film.
