Need this as a series, but don't change a thing. Has to be the same cast.

One of the most original mix of common theme elements I've seen in a long time. Mixes the typical cop mcguffin story line, with a unique setting for that genre. It's interesting and thought provoking. Good action scenes, good pacing and good tension. I am delighted they are making a squeal.

So, I now have a theory. We were told that Suicide Squad was not a good movie due to studio interference. They forced reshoots and interjected humor and just monkeyed with the entire thing, making it a dumb, muddy mess. They interfered with David Ayer's vision. After sitting through the entirety of Bright, it is now my opinion that all of the studio interference probably made Suicide Squad a better movie and turned it from unwatchable to moderately entertaining. Bright, unfortunately, had no studio interference. How do you take such an original idea and have absolutely nothing original to say with it? Bright is every buddy cop cliche mashed up with every fantasy cliche delivered via a two dimensional plot and corny dialogue. Nothing about this movie was good. The story plays out like a third grade D&D campaign. The characters were cardboard cut-outs from Tolkien meets Lethal Weapon. The acting was wooden (aside for a few brief moments by Edgerton who did his best with what he was given). The pacing was bad. The shots were bad. The stunts were bad. The FX were beyond bad. Seriously, 90 million dollars for rubber orc masks and tattoos that were obviously drawn on with a Sharpie. Noomie Rapace looked great. Everyone else looked like cosplay on the last day of comicon when everyone is tired and hungover and just can't be bothered. Ayers made nothing but bad choices and delivered a terrible movie. I am tempted to insert the words "visionless hack" into this review somewhere but thought that might be bit too harsh. Hopefully, Netflix ignores the obvious shill reviews praising this stinker, takes note of all of the harsh criticism that this flick so richly deserves and interferes a little more in the sequel so the next installment will be at least moderately entertaining.

I had no expectations to this movie, given the fact that it was a movie that aired on Netflix. And it starred Will Smith as a police man with an orc police partner, right I know sounds rather corny.But still I gave the movie a chance, and I must admit that I am more than happy that I did so. Because "Bright" turned out to be a really amazing movie.I was more than genuinely entertained from beginning to end. The storyline in "Bright" was captivating and it felt very much as if the movie was set in a pre-Shadowrun setting one that was just missing the cyberpunk aspect, or at the very least the director has been heavily influenced by the Shadowrun roleplaying game.The acting in the movie was good, and even Will Smith was able to shed his usual shackles of mediocre acting for this movie.What really blew me away, was the special effects and practical effects, because they were spectacular and realistic. And the way they made the elves appear was just phenomenal; they really made the elves seem like they had transcended humanity and reached a higher state of being.They had a very impressive cast ensemble for this movie, which really helped bring the characters to life on the screen.I hope they follow this movie up with a sequel or perhaps even a series because there is so much more to be explored here.
