AntiMCU:
Correct me if I'm wrong, the last time he took a role in a non-eccentric character from my memory was in Transcedence.
That film tanked badly.

He was in Murder on the orient express and Mordecai, and you wouldn't even notice.

AntiMCU:
Johnny Depp I guess?
His schtick worked from mid to late 2000's.
We all tired of it now.
When last did he have a hit in a lead role?

It has been a long while he had an hit. He's always seems out of place when taking up roles where he just has be normal...This man lives for the weird roles and it's monotonous now.

KoiceReloaded:
Methinks Depp's too eccentric to delve into a more mainstream role. I mean, look at his lifestyle, his dressing habits, eating habits... the guy practically exudes eccentricity from every pores. He's able to convince in eccentric roles because they are him.

He's very talented, no doubt, but he's no Matt McConaughey/Christian Bale.

Exactly...

AfricanGenius:
I think that he was good in Fantastic Beasts; Crimes of Grindelward

Typecast...He should start taking up roles not centered on eccentricity.

KoiceReloaded:
The thing is he's very picky. He mostly pick challenging eccentric roles, and with the notable exception of his Jack Sparrow character in PoTC franchise, such roles alienate the audience. He has definitely peaked.

Spot on, had my fill of his eccentricity after "The Lone Ranger". Just wanted to see him delve into other roles that i know for sure his talent can measure up to but sadly he can't.

Just started Binging Stranger things S3 and the first episode is monotonous to say the least.

Been a very busy week for me and was only able to see just 1 movie and i unfortunately picked "The Professor"...straight to ratings first solid 4/10. Very forgettable movie to say the least. The synopsis was cliché to say the least and i was banking on the brilliance of Johnny Depp to save it but alas the movie was weird and heading nowhere and i just peeped the RT rating and is at 10%. Btw Johnny depp hasn't been in anything good in recent times dunno if it's the Amber heard's issue. This man is a brilliant actor with immense talent..am fearing that he has already peaked.

This Trailer dawgggg....felt like a normal kung fu movie and not a disney story. They have gotten Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin right to an extent but they shouldn't push thier luck and ruin the legacy of Disney animated feature film.

Hearing The Handmaids Tale S3 and Big little lies S2 are a mess so far but am still going to binge after they wrap up...makes me wonder sometimes why some show runners decides to stretch some show plot lines till they become useless. I loved Sharp Objects because they stuck with the source material but rumours are flying about that the show runners are open to the possibility of an S2 deviating from the source material.

ademeedee:
oh really.. that's exciting. I saw people say that on Instagram but didnt believe. I am not so sure about spin offs because most of them always get cancelled before the end of the first season besides I want to see all the cast together doing their thing. That's just me though.

To me personally they can't stretch the story any further than this, or else they will be making a mockery of the good work they have had before...season 1, 2,3 were pure flames. Season 4 and 5 saw a drop in intensity...so with a further season rumour and a possible spin off imo they should have tied all loose ends in this upcoming season and go out with a bang.

alexistaiwo:
Why will he claim it when me myself have listed my Nigerian nationality on Olx

lol Highly doubt if it will be worth anything.

Hugo Wallace Weaving, best known for playing "Agent Smith" in The Matrix trilogy (1999–2003), "Elrond" in The Lord of the Rings (2001–2003) and The Hobbit (2012–2014) film trilogies, was born in Nigeria at the University of Ibadan Teaching Hospital, in Ibadan on April 4, 1960..... So this dude is basically a Nigerian by birth.

His Nigerian Nationality by Birth not claimed (Who would in thier right mind claim it btw) His is English and Australian... English by his parents i think then Australia because he has lived there most of his life.

ademeedee:
August 25th.... and it's the final season.

might not be the final season..50 cent confirm there might still be more story to tell and spin off have also be confirmed.

mekaprime:
Hahahha.. Truth be told, it was one of the worst movies I've seen this year so far, but in terms of been bad, i wouldn't place it in the same pedestal as Escape plan the extractors, The kid who would be king,The Man Who Killed Hitler &Then the Bigfoot and Dumbo. For me, Hellboy was more like a myopic, one eyed man with conjunctivitis, in the midst of the blind...
On Box office bombs, did you know Shaft 2019, had a massive one. With a budget of 30-35 million, they made a worldwide gross of just 8.3 million.

Downloaded the Shaft since o, but i am getting the same review from those who have seen it which is ignore the storyline and focus on Samuel L Jackson

JeromeBlack:
But wait. How can people who love Madea movies complain about Kevin hart movies?

Are they not the same brand of stupid comedy

i saw one Madea movie one time, i immediately cancelled all Madea movies past, present and future. Sure Brain cell killer that.

Afobear:
Archetypal of Kevin Hart's movies .....very boring and unfunny !!!! That guy is bang shit

I saw Kevin Hart's "Irresponsible" Netflix special and this guy told like 1 good joke in over an hour. Very unfunny and forced. I stay away from movies that he's the lead.

Kaycee7:
On a scale of 1 - 10, how scary is Stranger Things? Would classify it as horror?

5....more of coming of age sci fi.

mekaprime:
Hellboy (2019)...5.5/10
Genre: Action, Adventure, Fantasy

The worst of the lot, when compared to the previous 2 instalments. The gory, dark humour, fight scenes, didn't quite cut it out for me. TBF, it was so disappointing & forgettable.

3/10 will suffice here sir, absolute terrible movie that shouldn't have been made. This bombed so hard that it was pulled from cinemas less than a month old.

Octopusssy:
Night School-

Slapstick humour has never been my thing. There's nothing fresh about the storyline, although the underlying theme is a good one.

5.5/10

This movie was barely a 2/10 Absolute rubbish storyline with an equally forced 20% humor.

FruitCakes:
July 19..

cool.
Wonder what they wanna do again tho

This should have ended with the 2nd season.

500 days of Summer is still a gem.

A possible breaking bad movie?? Inject it inna me viens!!!!

JeromeBlack:
Stranger things season 3 out tomorrow.

Really hope this holds up to the earlier seasons. Personally thought they could have wrapped this up inside 2 seasons.

KoiceReloaded:
Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is my favorite PC game of all time. Let's see how the television adaptation of The Witcher novels will pan out.

i think Henry Cavill's casting is a masterstroke..can't wait.

My "Hyped" level for this...101%

cao:
A flawed film can be entertaining. Bright had lazy world building and some silly plot points, but I was still entertained by it. Jupiter Ascending was a large disappointment, but the world building was so excellent that I still kinda want a better produced sequel. Granted, I now view it as a comedy.

Very true. I found movies with low RT ratings entertaining. Most of the time the IMDB ratings are usually ok just like this one. Thanks for the review.

Octopusssy:
What is the synopsis of Private Life sans spoilers?

A couple coping with infertility struggle to keep their marriage going as they navigate through the world of adoption and assisted reproduction.

cao:
Shaft.

Netflix, the reason why I've only been to the cinema once this month.

The RT rating for this was so low.

Octopusssy:
Searching-

Wow. Just wow.

8/10 (the climax kind of spoiled it a bit for me)

After Private life, this was the next best flick i saw last year.

Ayo199:
Pls what time is today own starting

10am

olalekan9320:
I graduated 2018 and when I was writing attendance most people there graduated much earlier

Among the three of us that went, two has been disqualified because of certificate not correlating with subject to mark, that's the reason I'm afraid everything won't be waste of time and money at the end of the day

That's why stated earlier is better to mark your area of specialization.

Saw "Shaft" on NF and i was thinking about a whole different synopsis
