Hitti vai huti? – Ridley Scottin The Dog Stars on nähty

#TheDogStars felt like it forced from-the-book moments in, drawing it out a bit.

That said, the second hour is intense & quite good. The characters are developed well enough to care into *wild* story turns.

#TheDogStars kinda surprised me? It definitely feels like it’s pulling from a lot of things we’ve already seen in the post-apocalyptic genre, but Ridley Scott slowly brings all of those familiar pieces together into something much more thematically sincere.

At its core, this is… pic.twitter.com/V05rn9SA8X

#TheDogStars is a fine film that at under two hours still feels like its missing something. Ridley Scott knows how to film stunning landscapes, but falls short with a run of the mill post-apocalyptic film that-just-is. Josh Brolin is superb as always and eats up every scene he's… pic.twitter.com/WLkOpLe8Al

THE DOG STARS is soothing and gruelling.

A western set at the end of the world with a big heart. Some intense FURY ROAD energy mixed with quiet campfires under the stars.

THE DOG STARS is yet another example of how Ridley Scott is only as good as the screenplay he’s given, for as strong as his direction can be, or his proficiency at staging action sequences, or the performances he gets out of his stars, if the screenplay isn’t fully there, the… pic.twitter.com/bnnC8myT5i

#TheDogStars surprised the hell out of me! This is a highly entertaining and achingly raw post-apocalyptic knock out that thankfully leans far more human than apocalypse, anchored by terrific performances from Elordi, Brolin, Qualley, Pearce and Janney, who nearly walks away with… pic.twitter.com/ZuS9m95q2B

#TheDogStars took me by surprise. Ridley Scott has proven yet again that his finger is on the pulse when it comes to current themes.

A warm, human, post-apocalyptic drama about the need for community. Slow, but consistently engaging, with smart editing.

Really enjoyed this! pic.twitter.com/SSW6SVG25N

THE DOG STARS is perfectly fine. You expect it to go exactly the way it goes in a post-apocalyptic future. Some questions, but this is definitely Ridley Scott's best in a minute. #TheDogStars #IMAX pic.twitter.com/B9n7YfLkBb

#TheDogStars is a well-made but utterly soulless apocalyptic tale that feels like a bunch of other stories that have simply done it better. Elordi and Qualley have great presence but not much to work with in the heavy-handed screenplay. Gorgeous cinematography and effective… pic.twitter.com/qrNKCfMLuQ

The Dog Stars wastes a solid cast and Ridley Scott direction due to a shoddy screenplay. On the nose dialogue and a meandering feel keep this one from being anything noteworthy. Alas.#TheDogStars pic.twitter.com/GNiG8vYand
