Genuinely curious, did you actually read all 133 reviews and check each profile? Or did you just get your feelings…
lol no, reading every single review and checking each profile is time I don't really have. I have read only the top reviews that say that the movie doesn't follow after the novel. I assume that the rest are like that, no?
Once the movie reaches the U.S and other big areas will the reviews finally be valid? I doubt their minds will be changed even if they watch it.
Information about the movie has already been leaked and it still doesn't look good. Critics' opinions have been spread around, and the reception has been average if not a little low. The Prophet doesn't really seem to have much going for it, OG fans are mad, actor fans have been shaded, and new people are confused by the fast pace and lack of explanation for skills or how the world works.
Like many LA before this, the OG fans will dog on it and vent their frustrations. That is just what is happening here. ATLA hated their "LA" movie, AOT was disappointed with theirs, Dragon Ball is just laughable, ect.
FYI: Of the (currently) 156 written reviews for this movie, at least 133 of them are fake. Their accounts were…
I ask you this, who should you trust? The people who know the original material or the person who warps the story to get a quick cash grab. Fans are mad because it was supposed to be an adaptation but was given anything but. If you want to understand why so many people are doing this then I can explain it but know that people are not doing this for no reason. It can be that fans are petty (sure) and it also be because there are genuine criticisms.
I don't agree that the actors should be shamed or attacked for doing what they're told but this movie is hardly related to ORV.
They have taken out certain things from the original that looks bad (especially given South Korea's relationship with women), like taking away Jung Heewon's SA, taking out that Sangah's manager was a creep who stole her bike to force her to ride with him and that is why she was on the subway, Dokja's mother and him were abused by their husband/father, ect (why would they take out those specific details?). These are fans who are passionate about a story they care about. Like how actor fans are not happy that their actors are getting attacked, ORV fans don't like that their story is being cheapened to appeal to the masses.
