I hated everything but the premise and Edgerton. Smith is bad and the film is painfully boring. It plays mostly as a bad cop TV show.

Maybe this would have made a better series than a movie. There seem to be too many plot lines and loose ends to fit into the running time. Also, it was a little annoying how they try to address racism through humans, elves, and orcs, while they don't touch upon the obvious skin colour issue at all.

The worst thing a blockbuster-type film can do is be boring. Sure, Bright has lazy writing, a flat lead, and thrown together world-building, but it's biggest sin is that it's boring.

Using a hybrid Tolkein-real world mash up to deconstruct police-community relations is... interesting. And it works reasonably well. I am no Will Smith fan, but he did a good job.

Bright sells itself as urban fantasy that blends the social commentary of science fiction with the spectacle of high fantasy. I guess I set myself up for disappointment. The world is poorly thought out and explained, the plot delivered haphazardly and the characters are just not interesting. The cast did a decent job with what they were given, and Edgerton was at least entertaining. Unfortunately, Bright is neither entertaining nor meaningful, just painfully mediocre.

Interesting world-building, but they didn't ultimately deliver on the premise. Generally lackluster acting, especially by Smith. The Fresh Prince ain't so Fresh anymore. Generally confusing plot coupled with long boring sections.

If you give it time, it gets better, but it's mostly action-driven. Wish there was more time for chemistry between the leads. Alien Nation did the concept much better.

Before we begin, let me say that I say all of the following as someone who has played way too much Shadowrun and D&D. This is a fucking sheltered nerd's idea of clever social commentary. Heavy-handed, far too convinced of its own cleverness and taking place in a world that is simultaneously overly convoluted and undercooked, Bright is at best a passable action movie but is more often just mildly annoying. I should at least like this but I couldn't stand it at all.

What happens when a scriptwriter smokes too much weed at a D&D party, then takes his character sheets to Netflix and uses them to roll some more blunts for the executives he's meeting, who, after smoking the blunts, call up Will Smith and offer him $1,000,000 to come down to San Diego and sing Wild, Wild, West for them.

High fantasy meets gritty urban cop drama with more racism than you can shake a stick at. Not bad, even if the chick was a complete ripoff of Leeloo fra The Fifth Element and the idea of a fairy exterminator was "borrowed" from Labyrinth.

It's pretty fucking dumb, but you should expect no less from Landis and Ayer. That's said it was perfectly passable whilst it lasted and numerous faults aside I was you know... entertained I guess.

Bright is very rough around the edges. I like how they delved into urban fantasy, but felt that they didn't really present enough of the world so that we could understand very much. I felt that the story could have really been a lot more than what it was. Despite all this I enjoyed it. Would I have enjoyed it more with a bit better story and development of the world? Probably, but if you just take it as a urban fantasy buddy cop movie it was a fun watch.

This is a pretty terrible film, awkwardly inconsistent throughout. It's too ridiculous to be taken seriously, but too seriously delivered to be taken humorously. That said, I found the idea if the universe intriguing, so I'm excited to see what a train wreck the sequel will be.

Urban fantasy has long since been loitering around in books, and has infrequently stepped into film with little success. "Bright" isn't groundbreaking, and it's social commentary is about as disguised as a pebble hidden in a wine glass, but it's fun. If you're the type to have no qualms with kicking off your shoes and enjoying a fantasy/action popcorn flick, this is for you. Extra points for Edgerton who plays an orc with fantastic comedic timing better than he plays a man, which is also good.

Let me start with this: this is absolutely not a great movie. It's a neat premise (if a little "this thing meets this thing" pitch-y) but the worldbuilding isn't that hot, there's nothing unique or impressive about the way it's shot, and narratively it's not very satisfying. But as a gimmicky buddy cop action movie, it's not nearly as bad as the critical reaction would suggest. Smith and Edgerton are having fun with their roles and it passes the time without being too aggressively dumb.

tone bounces terribly between jokes and killing babies and being dramatic, social commentary was amateur and totally didn't belong, like if R.I.P.D. had something to say about the post 9/11 muslim scare. second half settled into straight action flick which i enjoyed, liked the palette of the film and the effects were good.

Equipped with questionable politics, two actors totally off their game and the power to turn an interesting premise into a total clusterfuck, this buddy cop movie fails on all levels. This could have been an entertaining movie, not necessarily a good one, but an entertaining one nonetheless. However, in this form it's just garbage.

They create an interesting world and the leads are fine. Every time you start to get drawn in, the dialogue takes you right back out. Things as simple as referring to it as a "magic wand" rather than just "wand" definitely dragged it down a bit. Still, not a waste of a lazy afternoon.

Bright has an excellent concept, but that's its only positive attribute. It's poorly paced, shoddily edited, and written by someone who apparently doesn't understand how to make characters naturally swear or develop characters at all, for that matter. Smith and Edgerton are good, but their characters are too one-dimensional for me to care about them at all. It's not quite as bad as others say it is, but it is boring, bland, and a pretty lazily made film.

Hard to enjoy a film written by a blight on humanity. Fortunately, there's not all that much to like about this, so it's no great loss. The review here likening it to Shadowrun actually helped a ton with the immersion, but the lore and characters and politics are much too weak to make it work. It seemed like a more sensibly directed film than Suicide Squad, but wow, the final third was so painful and boring to get through that I barely made it. 12th film of 2018

Smith's ugliest movie since Bad Boys 2. It's ambitious, but the script is lazy - Ayer continues to rely on the same material even when he masks it with fantasy. The MA/R rating also doesn't serve the movie well.

Basically a cross between Lord of the Rings and Training Day. And It's as strange as it sounds. The action has pretty high production value and this makes the film watchable, but be sure to go in with very low expectations overall. There is hardly any exposition so we don't know the rules of this universe or how they came to be. All we know is that everyone wants this wand and then there's lots of shooting.
