Saw the movie: The Creator

In a word: Sucked.

Forced drama, forced tension, stupid, lazy writing, wouldn't care if everyone died because there was little to NO character development. Humongous plot holes you can drive a MAC truck through. Unnecessary plot devices that are cringe.

Almost a parody of old 007 bond movies where the villain makes these unnecessary elaborate plans to kill the good guy, only giving him an easy way to escape.

Antagonist and protagonist felt like cookie-cutter tropes.

Super anti-US.

Longest 10 minute bomb timer in the universe.

Story props dropped in for no reason other than try to tidy things up.

No sense of hurry because everyone just takes their time when they need to move.

Only good thing is nice visuals and cinematic shots.
I'm not blessed with riches, but I am rich with blessings.
Thank you, LORD, my God.

Damn, I'll still see it because movies suck these days but I was hoping it would be good.

John David Washington’s permanently wooden, dull, unchanging facial “expression” is LUDICROUS. Open-mouthed, lips slightly parted and protruding, reminiscent of a child or simpleton staring with a glazed look. Devoid of emotion, he delivers his lines like a fry cook hands you your small order of soggy and unsalted fries. When you go to see him act in a movie, you are knowingly ordering a lukewarm, limp, bland performance. How far the apple has fallen from the tree here, for this man to possess not a single inkling of talent, not even a shred of what his father exudes from every pore.

Do not watch movies with him in them. He is not a leading man. He is not a character actor. He is not a supporting actor. He is not an actor. He is a mannequin.

He can’t act. He can’t act worth a damn. He can’t act if his life depended on it. He can’t learn to act, and will never learn to act. He’ll never be good at this.

If I have to see another movie poster, promotional material, video clip, or anything where I see his stupid open-mouthed, lips ajar, blank expression while he struggles to vomit up lines EVER AGAIN, I am not sure I’ll be able to contain my annoyance any longer.

Someone has to tell him…close your mouth. Furrow your brow a little, then raise your eyebrows. Frown, then smile. Look surprised. Sad. Happy. You know those things in your face and head that control movement? Those muscles? Use them to move your face around. You know those things you feel on a daily basis when things happen to you? Those feelings you get in your head, or in your tummy, or your chest? Those are called emotions, remember? Do you see people around you, and how their faces look? See how they don’t always keep their mouths open with a dumb look on their stupid faces?

I could be his acting coach…I will do it. You can count on me. I’ll do it, no problem.

The preview to the movie looks boring as sh!t. Seems like Denzel's kid was his horrible acting self?
