Yeah I get the CGI is pretty dated and it's very silly, but look at the movie as it is. People on imdb have a bad habit of giving movies they think are overrated 1s, or movies they think are underrated 10s. This movie is an example of the former.

The kid actors are good, as well as the adults. Danny Trejo is a standout for me. Antonio banderas was great as well.

The villain, Floop, may be silly but you understand his character, which is something MANY spy movies fail at.

Jokes do fall flat, but some do land and are pretty good. The plot is simple and silly and does makes no sense at times, but it's a kid movie: I don't know why some reviewers were expecting an in-depth socio-political commentary on the government and spies. And in my opinion, the plot is entertaining and that's what matters.

I suppose that what movies should be aiming for: entertainment. Obviously a good movie needs good plot; score; direction; writing; cinematography and acting (all of which this movie has), but what makes me actually care about the movie is the question of 'if I enjoyed the movie'

And I enjoyed the movie, a lot

This show already is very good . I like most of the characters and found the humor was very funny. It felt very lighthearted, and was fun to watch. It was so fun that, I didn't even know all the episodes have finished.

People may come looking for a community season 7 or a It's always sunny season 15, but they will get a season 7 of Silicon Valley, so be warned.

The cast also does a great job, I personally think David Hornsby was the best at his role. Rob and Danny did great jobs too.

Now onto the problems: The two testers, danna and Rachel seem to be really boring and need to get more interesting in the second season. They did get more interesting as the series progressed, so I have hope.

The shows uses a LOT of sitcom tropes, many of them being incredibly overused. This idea of setting an entire show behind the scenes of a video game company has never been done before, or at least I know about. This creates a whole new set of ideas that the writers don't seem to approach.

Sitcoms with much worse first seasons ended up becoming shows that have been called the best sitcom (parks and rec, Seinfeld, etc....).

I believe this show HAS the potential to be one of those shows. The writing is very good, which brings me to episode 5...

This episode was a surprise. It was much more serious and showed that the writing can be great.

I DON'T want the entire show to be like episode 5, BUT episode 5 shows how good the show can get.

The show started strong but then quickly turned sour.

Characters now act incredibly stupidly and have dumb 'romances' between each other. Whose idea was it to put multiple romances in a 'heist' series?

And more importantly, whose idea to turn a mini series into a 4 season soap opera with a season 5 in the works?

The show must end, this show has the worst case of seasonal rot I have seen. Only the network behind the show knows what may come next, and how bad it could be.

What started as an intelligent intriguing heist story is now just a soap opera.
