Seunpaul01:That was basically a summary & it was gotten from Wikipedia if am not mistaken, that barely scratched the surface of the Harriet Tubman's story. Had it been that i still have the Ms word document i did on her, I'd have gladly mailed it to you. The movie was good but historically inaccurate, hence my very poor rating. All the same, let's just leave it at that. |

mekaprime: I read the story on wiki, but firstly, why would a man that knows what hardworking means rate a movie at 1/10. Seriously? How did the writer wrote what ought to be? Pls, tell me. Where do you read your story from? maybe u should share where you read your story from to prove what you said. The following quoted text is copied from Wikipedia. I copied some part of the article. Read it and tell me how it is different from the movie. I read it and majority of the point was noted in the movie, few part was branded to fit a movie sense just as it is with all real story movie. They didn't call it Harriet and give you another story as you mentioned. Harriet Tubman (born Araminta Ross, c. March 1822[1] – March 10, 1913) was an American abolitionist and political activist. Born into slavery, Tubman escaped and subsequently made some 13 missions to rescue approximately 70 enslaved people, including family and friends,[2] using the network of antislavery activists and safe houses known as the Underground Railroad. During the American Civil War, she served as an armed scout and spy for the Union Army. In her later years, Tubman was an activist in the struggle for women's suffrage. In 1849, Tubman escaped to Philadelphia, then immediately returned to Maryland to rescue her family. Slowly, one group at a time, she brought relatives with her out of the state, and eventually guided dozens of other slaves to freedom. Traveling by night and in extreme secrecy, Tubman (or "Moses", as she was called) "never lost a passenger".[3] After the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 was passed, she helped guide fugitives farther north into British North America, and helped newly freed slaves find work. Tubman met John Brown in 1858, and helped him plan and recruit supporters for his 1859 raid on Harpers Ferry U can continue with it on Wikipedia. From the way you rated Terminator Dark Fate said alot. I know it's your opinion but this is a public forum and your opinion matters to us here. Majority come here to get movie references. Your rating help us decide the movie to watch. It is unfair when you come here and bad rate (1/10) a movie that majority of rating site give not less than 70% or 6/10. |

mekaprime: from what i read online after watching the film, the film is historically accurate, i think it's part of the reason rotten tomatoes rated it high. it's also a solid movie. your 1/10 is very unfair and deceiving. |

Seunpaul01: Now you've touched my inner child, yeah 1/10 was quite an outrageous rating, let's just say i did it in the heat of the moment. To create a concept out of ones mind isn't really an easy task, and for that, I do hold writers in high esteem. The thing here is that most times,we let our emotions get the better side of us & the result is cataclysmic. Let's just say i went into the movie with so much expectation & basically wanted it to be the way i imagined it while reading about it, no sugarcoating or mild editing, that was what i meant when i used the What ought to be & what is phrase & also when I said instead of Harriet they gave us another thing. You see my good man, word on print (books) are different from movies. In the sense that books gives you that poetic licence to create from your own wealth of imagination, so when what you imagined doesn't in any way bear semblance to what you are seeing as a result of a lot of factors, then cursing becomes inevitable. As for Terminator Dark Fate, everything I said about it was the honest truth. Asides the action & the fancy special effects, the movie seriously didn't bring anything new to the table, it was more of a repeat to what we already know. Also the movie lacked emotional connection between the characters, if you saw T2 you should have a clear understanding of what am talking about. They said it was a sequel to T2 but it seemed more like a Reboot to T2. And believe you me, if you like you Action movie mixed together with a good story, you wouldn't rate that movie nothing more than 5/10. |

DandeNumeruno: I have to admit, i went to far, i was having a movie bad week, in the sense that other movies i saw in the same time frame with Harriet was horrible, thus, my expectation for the movie was way too much. And when my expectations & imagination from what i read, fell short from what i saw, i became rankled & lashed out at the movie. |

DandeNumeruno: Terminator: Dark Fate...5/10 That was what he said. He rated it average. Emotional connection? Just imagine. Would u agree with the low par statement on the effect? What we all see and agreed it was an obviously improved tech/effects than the T1 n T2. |

Seunpaul01: no fucking way! one of the best thing about dark fate was it's vfx. it was da bomb! viewers main gripe about the film was that killing john connor and choosing another saviour kinda rendered T1 and T2 insignificant, and honestly i agree with them. but as for the visual effects, dark fate looked glorious on a 1080 resolution. franky this is the first time i read that someone had issues with dark fates' vfx. mekaprime you're losing your touch o. maybe someone hacked your account or something. 2 Likes |
