The concept has been overflogged by every Apocalypse "end of the world" themed movie before it...nothing new to see here quite pointless at some stage..so I am rating this "Annihilation wannabe 4/10 for Sandra bullock's effort.
How is Bird Box an Annihilation wannabe?

Stephen King praised Netflix's latest thriller, "Bird Box," on Thursday, but he had less kind things to say about critics reviewing the movie.

King tweeted, "I was absolutely riveted by BIRD BOX (Netflix). Don't believe the lukewarm reviews, which may in part have been caused by reviewers' ambivalence to the streaming platform, as opposed to theatrical releases."

He added, "One might say movie reviewers suffer from the dread NP syndrome: Netflix Prejudice."

I liked Death of Stalin. Not the typical comedy film but it was funny to me.

Similar theme HOW? Annihilation is about a dimension affecting genetic material, Bird Box is about a supernatural force that we know nothing about except that it makes people kill themselves. Please explain exactly what is similar in both movies.

Lol, I saw the comment too but chose to ignore, oyaskii my bro, no offense but you probably saw the aba boys version of Bird box, as there was nothing remotely similar in both movies. Bird box was a big cliché to THE HAPPENING, it was like they made a few changes to the HAPPENING & voilà, Bird box was born.

Smallfoot ...7/10
Genre : Animation

The movie was very entertaining & hilarious. Plot was on point, voice acting was also superb, the message in the movie was strong & very heartwarming. The songs were very ok, but wasn't catchy & didn't necessarily blow me away. All in, it was a good movie.

You are pointing out the differences in the "entity" doing the killing or making people kill themselves.both movies..some entity killing people...but am sure nothing I will say beyond this point will change your mind about Bird Box so cheers.

Johnny English Strikes Again ..8/10
Genre :Action, Adventure, Comedy

I have always fancied Rowan Atkinson movies, & I must say, he was truly meant for that role. The concept was hilarious & acting superb, I absolutely loved it from start to finish.

lol..You just brought "The Happening to mind, and so many other movies with similar plot to birdbox my point been Birdbox was nothing ground breaking or innovative so I don't know where the races are coming from.

I totally got your point about the movie not being ground breaking or innovative. What spiked the catechize was the wrong comparison you included, as both movies had nothing in common.

Haven't watched Annihilation so I wouldn't know but from the comments above there are no similarities apparently

mortal engines 6/10

found the plot to be messy, too many noise, couldn't understand what was happening at the last 30 minutes, left before it even ended. overall, it was just okay-ish.


spiderverse 8.39/10

can't say much but best cartoon i've watched since zootopia and maybe angry birds.



aquaman 7/10 (downloaded)

was very okay but not great. some unexplained events, fight scenes were fantastic, mera is kiss , love the credit scene too wink

but 2hrs wasn't enough to tell the whole story so james wan tried in jampacking everything. can't wait to see the best of black manta
please I need the link to download Aquaman

Small Foot was surprisingly pretty good... Better than I expected...

Only issue I would say I had would be just the Songs... Was like they were trying too hard... And the songs were pretty dull, although the girl had a pretty sweet Voice


Would also Rate it at 7/10 too, or maybe 8 if I'm being generous

Hmmm... I have been reluctant to download this cos I feel I probably won't enjoy it..
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by nani667: 8:06pm On Dec 27, 2018
This one was Vastly underwhelming tho... A. X. L


From the pic I saw I thought it would be one action packed robot movie.... Ended up being about one robot dog and some noobs sad

About to see this...

So much hype prompted me to finally download

Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by OgidiOlu3(m): 8:12pm On Dec 27, 2018
Bird Box is kinda similar to A Quiet Place. In Bird Box, you must not open your eyes while in A Quiet Place, you must not make a sound.

I really enjoyed Bird Box though and I found it very interesting. A Quiet Place, on the other hand, was really dull and boring. They didn't say much throughout the movie so it almost felt like a silent film.

If you fancied the previous 2 JE movies, then you'll probably like this one.

The movie had the potential to be one of the greatest animated movie of 2018, but the songs made it otherwise.

Now I see. You think they are both the same in the general concept i.e 'Apocalyptic happenings' but even then aren't all horror movies like that? Still, Annihilation isn't apocalyptic. Infact, we start the movie not far from when the Shimmer appeared and the rest of the world is still going on but as you say, cheers
Missing the point...didn't say both are apocalyptic...you like what you like sha..and it's fine.

This is getting interesting. Now what 'entity' was killing people in Annihilation?
