Watch “Heat” from the 90s starring Al Pachino and Robert DeNiro. It’s very obvious GTA V was heavily inspired by that movie.

It wasn't "okay" show. An "okay" show at least makes some sense. We got a lackluster of a plot, acting and lore. Their actions and dialogues seems so random it hurts. Your favourite Sol is just a mess, something half a predator, half a mental patient, not a jedi. The dark side guy plans is pure nonsense. The motivations of Twins in every particular scene is different. Their overall motives is just random dice throws. If you're really a filmmaker, i suggest you to change your occupation as soon as possible, because, sitting there and defending this garbage, calling it an okay show, with a straight face, requires an extreme level of incompetence at your area of interests. P.s. that clickbait on the thumbnail is a low blow, i hope it was worth it for you

Amazing cinematography for something shot in iPhone, and the audio was super clean! The only thing that kind of downgraded the overall pretty nice production value was the way the scenes were shot, because there wasn’t enough variety in the angle choices, since the vast majority of them were medium angles. Although this worked really well for suspense in the scene were the protagonist breaks into the house, in the phone call scenes, for example, it would’ve been interesting to have the option to cut from medium shots to closeups rather than just cutting from medium shot to medium shot to medium shot. Still really enjoyed the short, the attention given to fleshing out the plot definitely paid off and made it stand out!

Hey Nick, I apologize I just saw this review! Your feedback is incredibly helpful, and I agreed with all the criticisms. Think I definitely would’ve liked to spend more time on the struggle, and working family members into it more would’ve been ideal but due to time constraints/how many actors I could get I wasn’t able to do so. I tried to replicate the social network with the non linear storytelling, but I think I told a little more than I should’ve, and should’ve shown more like you said. Great points to take into my next film. Thank you for watching it 🙏

The Problem the People have with it is not a political, one it is politics. The Creators of the show have more than once shown that they don't understand or like the Star Wars universe. They are just using the IP. There is one interview where some of the cast talk about that the "Bad Guys" aren't always bad and that "Anakin" destroying the death star also killed a lot of people. They don't even know who did that, apparently. Also the story is just bad. For example. The Acolyte have to kill a Jedi because their master said that they couldn't be harmed by laser or steel. May killed one in the first 15 min of the film with a very small knife. People got impaled in Disney Star Wars and lived. But this small knife killed a Jedi Master in seconds. Why? Also, the Fire in space part, but that's not too bad. There are so many errors or bad things in this series that nobody could watch it twice and still think that this is good story telling. Some of the others Disney Star Wars series have the same problems. Kenobi for example, where most plots make noo sense. The Grand Inquisitor got impaled by the way and lived. Why? Why? Boba Fett was the worst disappointment. The Episode with the Scooter gang was the most embracing thing in Star Wars ever. Andor and Mando were good and Bad batch was too. But most Live Action is just Bad. And don't even get me started on the Sequels.

Yes, but it's unfair how fans generalize. Shows should be judged on a case by case basis. I noticed no politics from watching the show blind to all the behind the scene content. Not like I noticed with products such as She-Hulk or Endgame. The fact that the show got nuked with negativity before it even came out, as well as all the personal problems I've heard about the show thus far being really petty stuff, just proves to me that most of you lot are disingenuous with the hate. There's certainly an agenda being carried here, but fans are the ones pushing it this time.

The reason it’s rated a poorly isn’t only because it’s a mediocre show. If that was the only reason, a small fan base would approve of its content. This is Star Wars, it has a huge fan base. So the expectations are very high. Rather than meet those expectations, they’ve spoiled the lore for existing fans with simple plots, riddled with mistakes and weird messaging.

It's not review bombing/ political believes, when FANS of star wars are angry at the fact that the writing is awful the source material was not respected at all, the people behind it are not FANS of star wars (like that actor saying anakin destroyed the death star, what a joke), you have projects with great diversity that are GREAT due to respecting the lore and good writing, not all are Haters just because they have an agenda...but because their beloved franchise is being completely destroyed, and now they will get it where it hurts, their pockets, no views = no money! so They will eventually change or die, at this point me and several other former fans of Star Wars will not watch any more of this garbage.

Star Wars fans have every right to say enough is enough. I don't know of a company that has turned on it's original fanbase more than Disney Lucasfilm has. The very thing they claim we are against (diversity), is the thing that has always been a huge part of Star Wars. George Lucas even recently defended the apparent lack of diversity in the Star Wars universe for crying out loud. Real fans don't care about who the lead is, they care that the lead is well written and the story is compelling. Modern day Star Wars (with a few exceptions) lacks any emotion or imagination. There are a few projects in the SW universe under Disney that I'm thankful for but the rest including the sequel trilogy range from underwhelming to down right insulting. To take the inappropriate 1% of fans and somehow label all dissenting voices with that brush is so disingenuous. How does a company buy a $4B franchise and have no plan, no story outline for episodes VII-IX? How does this company fail to reunite the original cast in even a single scene? How does such a big company publicly announce several projects only to cancel them shortly after? How does a company selectively fire certain actors for voicing their opinions but not others? How does a company like this fire several directors / creatives shortly after announcing them? How does a company lose hundreds of millions of dollars on an Indiana Jones movie? How has Disney still not turned a profit 12 years after acquiring Lucasfilm despite putting out more content in that stretch than the 35 years that preceded it? I could go on and on but rest assured that there are legitimate grievances by fans who have simply had enough.

It sounds like u have the answer to your question. The show is being review bombed by ppl who hate the producers, creators and some of the actors for political reasons. It doesn't have much to do with the show itself. Many sites were being review bombed before the show even came out. Ppl will nitpick the show to death but that's a smokescreen. The reality is that if u nitpicked ALL Star Wars the way that "The Acolyte" is nitpicked, no Star Wars project would hold up.

Everything you just said is wrong. This show is high budget cosplay written by children for a casual teen audience. It's forgettable to the "modern audience" it's aimed at and insulting to fans who've followed Star Wars for decades. It's not only a failure in a vacuum but also breaks what came before.

It's funny how your theories fall apart the moment you leave your room. Like house of the dragon season 2 episode 1 just came out. Strong female characters, main ones, not just that but reigning queens. The actress of one of those queens is a member of the lgbtq folks. It has black people in it. Most guys are insufferable pieces of shit. If you watch it, it's just as woke as the acolyte. Somehow no review bombing. Somehow everyone and their mom loves house of the dragon. The only difference between both is one has good writing and the other doesn't. Might this be related to the abysmal ratings of the acolyte. Naaa it's muh toxic fans. They just don't know about house of the dragon yet ahahahahaah

Also; It looks cheap and confined... poor production values. Riddle me THiS, "Filmmaker": "WERE DID THE $180 Million go??? IsThe Acolyte a Money-Laundering Scheme.
