>Director David Ayer has praised a negative Bright review that called his $90 million Netflix cops-and-orcs fantasy “the worst movie of 2017.” Early reviews of Bright have indeed been largely negative, with most critics citing the dialogue and story as the major issues. The movie currently sits at 32% on Rotten Tomatoes.
>he movie gained further credibility when Netflix hired Suicide Squad director David Ayer to helm. Ayer’s background on gritty crime dramas like End of Watch and Street Kings seemingly would come in handy in realizing the movie’s genre-bending world. Set in an alternate present LA, the film imagines humans living side-by-side with orcs, fairies, elves, and other fantasy races. The story follows cops Will Smith and Joel Edgerton, the latter an orc, as they become reluctant partners. In true tentpole fashion, the new buddy-cops soon find themselves saving earth from villains armed with a magic object.
Fucking damage control
What happened to Ayer?

Liam Wood
>f*cking epic
Adrian Hall
When the fuck is this shit going up on primewire???
Nicholas Parker
Can we really take critics seriously after they gave TLJ glowing praises?
Christian Bell
Been really looking forward to Bright. It looks Shadowruny, and until Harebrained gets to making more, I could use a fix.
Hudson Morales
>Caring what an autistic letterboxd critic thinks.
Connor Thompson
BRIGHT is a RAUNCHY and pants-pissing romp of family fun! #LITTY
Jaxon Nelson
Ayer is like that. When SUICIDE SQUAD got shit reviews he spent an entire week tweeting Bible verses about judgment and shit.
Justin Smith

Luke Stewart
What a bitch. Why respond in such a childish manner to criticism?
Oliver Roberts
bro he's an ARTIST okay? you just wouldn't understand.
Ethan Martinez
>I'd love to read any script you've written You don't need to have written a script or made a movie to know when you're watching a shitty one. What a passive aggressive asshole.
Joshua Hill
They shouldn't have cast will smith. I would watch it if they'd cast anyone else but him.
Christian Brown
this is what butthurt looks like
Ayden Ross
This movie is for the FANS not the CRITICS
Grayson Stewart
>Max Landis writes it >Ayer does a rewrite and makes it worse
how can such a thing happen
Sebastian Lopez
>cops-and-orcs fantasy
Asher Garcia
Blade Runner got positive reviews and Baywatch got negative reviews
David James
yeah wow how can something from the mind that brought you sum finna soosai swad make something bad
Adam Bailey
Well it's worked for Disney with TLJ...
Chase White
>What happened to Ayer? Well, let's start at the top. They hired the guy who made Suicide Squad to make another movie. For some reason.
Benjamin Barnes
you can just ignore anyone who saysthey are cheeto dust covered manchild.
Liam Gutierrez
one of my favourite non-arguments desu
Isaac Walker
> defending critics Settle down, Virgin. The game’s up at this point
Juan Hall
End of Watch and Training Day (he only did the screenplay) are great cop movies.
Logan Watson
And blade runner was boring as shit. Was that your point? That you like bad movies?
John Parker
>white knighting movie critics Whew. That's a special breed of autism you've got there.
Lincoln Bell
Baywatch was a a fun, raunchy, litty comedy of summer 2017. It was for FANS only, not critics.
Noah Walker
>fun
Zachary Gomez
>The movie gained further credibility when Netflix hired Suicide Squad director David Ayer to helm. Why would anything ever gain credibility by incorporating a piece of Suicide Squad?
Joseph Sullivan
>A $90 million blockbuster that boasts all the production value of an episode of “Charmed,” Netflix’s first mega-budget film effort starts with a potentially compelling premise that never gets off the ground. >The elevator pitch is easy enough to understand, even if it requires some further explanation: “Bright” is essentially “Training Day” meets “The Lord of the Rings,” but much dumber than that sounds. >Imagine, if you will, that the war for Middle Earth was a seismic event on our timeline, and that all of the various fantasy creatures who participated in the fight simply went their separate ways once it was over.
Jackson Wood
time to say nay to the ayer
Elijah Hughes
He's got a point, who appointed these self proclaimed Gatekeepers of the industry?
They also always more times than not argue for bigger government so let's regulate them
Jason Thomas
What a fuckin bitch, he'd love to read any scripts he's written? What a fucking bitch way to discredit an opinion. What does an audience's ability have to do with the validity of their opinion? I hate these little pricks that carry on like that. Matthew Vaughn does it too, little bitch boy.
Isaiah Roberts
>Can we really take critics seriously after they gave TLJ glowing praises? Nope. Never trust critics. Alway torrent a movie before buying it on blueray or seeing it on theater.
Cameron Baker
Will I need my piss pants for this one?
Owen King
>Critcs are allowed to shit on a movie and put peoples careers at risk
>Soon as the public does it to a company that can affect a critics career they shit themselves and start telling the public they are wrong and have had their brains hacked by the alt-right and Russia
Man fuck ''Professional Critics''
You could line them all up and shoot them and no one would miss their input life would go on.
Isaac Edwards
>Man fuck ''Professional Critics'' This.I stopped trusting them a long time ago.
Wyatt Ramirez
>four in top 12 made in the past three years or whatever really got my noggin joggin
James Bailey
I'm not defending the critic, I'm saying Ayer is a bitch for saying 'well I'd like to see you do better' just cop it on the chin. Everyone outside the creative team is an audience member and all their opinions are equally valid.
Dylan Collins
This is the same reviewer who said TLJ was the best Star Wars movie
Aiden Carter
I never heard of this movie. Is this one of those *breathes in* movies or not?
Samuel Thomas
>Imagine, if you will, that the war for Middle Earth was a seismic event on our timeline, and that all of the various fantasy creatures who participated in the fight simply went their separate ways once it was over. Isn't that how Tokien wrote it? The Men grow powerful, the Dwarves die out, the Elves go away, and the Hobbits disappear. The Orcs, Goblins and whatnot died out too.
Nathan Williams
>This is the same reviewer who said TLJ was the best Star Wars movie Really?
Tyler James
i liked all of Ayer's films (specifically the ones he wrote and directed). i even like Suicide Squad. i'm looking forward to seeing this movie tonight. the problem i see with this film is that it's going to pack way too much in a 2 hr run time. with all that's going on, it would've benefited from 3 movies or a mini-series.
Ryder Adams
I really wanted this to have been great as in not sequal but whole new series of the back of this pilot movie but fuck if the review's ain't half bad. Could have been such Kino
