The first one has 59% and it is a masterpiece. The problem is all of the brain-dead action-lovers hoping for a stereotypical superhero movie and instead getting something their intellects can't handle. I doubt Lady Gaga is amazing in it but Joaquin Phoenix as Arthur? Incredible. It probably won't be as good as the first but still amazing.

i stopped listening to critics in high school lmao.

Apparently it is a dreary courtroom drama - and boring, which isn’t a great thing. Also, Gaga is underutilized. I think this will start off strong but bad word of mouth will sink it

I liked the first one, but giving Lady Gaga a big lead here killed all my excitement for it. It’s just hard to see her as anyone else. She’s too high profile and she’s Lady Gaga. Even when she has a dramatic scene, I just can’t take it seriously…

tbh i didnt find the first one that great. it gave a bit of cliche dark backstory for a villian. acting performances were good though.

Lady Gaga is an ok actress, but the teasers I've seen are not promising. The raspy voice and overacting, as usual, to make the role look profound...

Besides, the decision of making this movie a musical is a bit underwhelming, I don't like the idea at all but we'll have to watch it to judge.

I don’t care what critics say; if I see a trailer and the movie looks interesting, I will watch it. But in this case, the movie looks awful, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it turns out to be bad.

All online reviews are based on personal opinion. Don’t let the comments of random critics stop you from seeing a film. Everyone is different and likes and dislikes things for certain reasons. If you wanna see it, see it!!!

We'll see I loved the first one and second parts are hardly good. I didn't like Gaga in house of Gucci so I don't have good hopes about this one.

My favorite role of her ever is AHS.

Only critics at the Venice film festival saw it . It’s not great, but it could go up. I watched the first one, thought it was just old I wouldn’t be watching this if lady Gaga wasn’t in it. One of the biggest complaints I’ve seen about it is the lack of Gaga, that she’s in it less than you would think. What’s gonna matter more is audience score, It Ends with us has a 57% and did very well (for its budget) - a bad rotten tomatoes score doesn’t mean fans won’t like it or that it won’t make a ton of money.

Maybe the whole musical thing made it boring?

I was thinking of seeing this in the theatre but maybe I'll just wait for streaming then. Gotta save up for the Exhale+ membership if Jordan decides to put the forum behind a paywall

Cliche? It’s a psychological thriller that clashes reality and mentality into a string of symphonic cinematography. Que cliche. You’re welcome to your opinion buuuttt…so am I.

it wasnt awful it just wasnt groundbreaking or something new to me. call it whatever you want but it wasnt that thrilling to me. It was pretty predictable. Again not a bad movie though and acting was good.

And 54% isnt panned lol. its getting mixed reviews. I dont always trust the critics though, but its nice when a movie you like gets high ratings, or you see a movie with high ratings and you end up liking it.
