Wicked

The casting was excellent, the CGI was much better than I expected, and the acting was ... okay. It seemed like they rushed the lines a little.

I just finished reading the book. This movie is a faithful adaptation which I really appreciate. Same dialogue and even the same food (biscuits and gravy). If you liked the book this is worth the watch.

Like I appreciate it stayed true to the books, and stuff but like. If you didn't read the books you'd be lost on what is going on in many scenes. And like some scenes from the book were great but rushed in the film that it was like, you should've just cut that scene out and spent more time on more important scenes. Also. The acting. I'm sorry. I wanted to love it. But it was so brutal and cheesy. And I've seen some of these actors in other things before so like nothing against the actors. But. I really tried.... I did sort of like it.... I liked Ivy and Ren.

I dont think this movie it has bad has the reviews, yes it has problems but i think it was about money, this fantasy movies need money to make cool effects and even do i think Tink was really well made other effects not so much , the actors are good, some lines are not the best,the make up could have been better, the actress was not rocking the red hair, the tattoos looked cheap , but i think if this movie had more money they could have fix all of it, i do hope they make the rest of the series and explained more about this world, it was interesting.

Having not read the books I can't really comment on the story or if it brought the characters to life. Movies don't always fulfil our expectations when reading a book. Although as I didn't have any prior context to this movie, It was very enjoyable. Yes there were some parts that felt a bit scripted here and there but all in all I think the main actors did their best to portray their characters. Some scenes of course looked quite fake and could have been improved but that is mostly down to funding. Had there been more money invested all the fantasy effects and fighting scenes could have been alot better. Found the fighting scenes a bit too easy and not much of a challenge. Having watched lots of fantasy and sci fi and action movies I know it could have been done alot better had there been more funding. In terms of storyline pretty predictable but I don't mind, the ending did throw me off a little as I didn't expect that to happen. Thoroughly enjoyed the movie and I cannot wait for the next one. Hope there's a next one with lots more action and more answers I just don't like cliffhangers...

I didn't read the books beforehand, so for me the casting felt absolutely perfect! I love to see small-budget movies just because they introduce fresh faces, and this one didn't disappoint at all!

That being said, I understand this was the director's first feature directorial debut, so many things need polishing if she plans to direct the future installments too. The transition and backstory of the main characters could've been built better, the attraction felt rushed and not spontaneous. The action-scenes need to feel more realistic. However, kudos to the director for so many critical things like action and CGI in her first feature project.

Acting-wise, I believe Liam is better than Anna. Nonetheless, for acting in a movie with lots of action sequences, they simply needed more rehearsal and clarity of their respective characters.

Lastly, this is a passionflix production, so director, could you please give us more of that amazing chemistry? I felt I couldn't get enough of these two!!

Overall, not the best passionflix production, but definitely one of the good ones :)
