A Ghost Story - 50 word Critique
“It’s all about time” - written & directed by David Lowery (2017)
Haunting
exploration
of grief,
the afterlife &
the passing of time
the human connections
we experience &
how sometimes
we have to move on
from people, places &
things
through
happenstance
but if only
we could get it back..
We’re alive
Don’t squander it!
A powerful story
for all times.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Mistakes in Stranger Things - Season 5
Stranger Things 5: A Train Wreck of Lazy Writing and Brand Blunders When Stranger Things first dropped in 2016, it was a masterpiece of atmosphere and tight storytelling. It felt like a love letter to the 80s. Fast forward to Season 5, and that love letter has been shredded. What we got instead was a bloated, nonsensical mess that felt like the creators were just checking boxes to get it over with. It wasn't just a disappointment; it was a total collapse of the logic and stakes that made us care about Hawkins in the first place.

Don't know how I missed this. A critique in poem! Nicely paced, formatted, and worded! 💙Anneliese
Great❤️😉📝✌️
My comment is #13. Egads!
Oh this was lovely. I adore ghosts, not the bloody ones though (nightmares). The poem was so well done. I will watch the trailer now.....Here is hoping 👶🧚♀️🧚♂️
I am intrigued now, your review was enticing enough but with the adage of the trailer... I'll be adding this to a list of movies I need to find/ watch!
I saw Casey Affleck and I'm in. Great critique
I have not seen, but this looks interesting. Will definitely be looking for it. Great job❤️
Wow, this is incredibly done in so few words! I love how you structured this. I would have never thought to do a critique in poem form but this is so engaging and really makes me interested to see this film! Awesome work, Grz! I've been on a bit of a break from Vocal but I'll be back soon to read more of your amazing words! 🤗
Great job getting the most out of the 50 words!
This seems like an emotional movie. Better stay away from it, lol! Loved your review!
Oh this sounds good! 😁
From your poetic critique, this sound like an interesting movie 🥰
Beautifully sweeping.
Never heard of this. Sounds intriguing. Great critique. Maybe you could craft your own career? Maybe you could publish "A Pocket Book of Critiques"?
Wonderfully written!!!
+1 for last minute entry;)
