neutral · AI labelView post →Mayday may not be as creatively manic as the directors' previous films (Dungeons & Dragons: HAT, Game Night) but it does offer two fun leads, a quick pace, and some impressive action scenes.

Mayday cost $150 million and made nothing. Matchbox The Movie cost $160 million and made nothing. Anyone see a pattern here? 1 out of 5 film-authority.com/2026/10/19/m...

neutral · AI labelView post →Studied a newly released movie (Mayday) put out by Skydance (Oligarch, David Ellison). It’s a COMEDY drama about an American pilot escaping Russia with help from ex-KGB. In the end there is mutual admiration and friendship. It’s an entertainment psyop to sway America’s view in favor of Russia.

positive · AI labelView post →This week's Sunday evening movie was action-comedy Mayday. Ryan Reynolds plays a US pilot who gets looked after by Russian Kenneth Branagh after he gets shot down behind enemy lines. It was actually really good & had an absolutely bonkers car chase towards the end. Recommended!
positive · AI labelView post →Meduza’s review of Apple TV’s “Mayday” argues that Kenneth Branagh steals the film as an ex-KGB “good Russian,” outshining Ryan Reynolds in a knowingly absurd Cold War buddy comedy that sends the pair fleeing the Red Army across the USSR. meduza.io/en/feature/2...
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched Mayday with the kids. Fun movie! The least of the three Daley/Goldstein joints, but still a lot of fun. Ryan Reynolds is toned down to a lot more tolerable level and Branagh is really good.

I knew jumping in it was a comedy but this should have been labelled a parody. Its like Temu Top Gun, with the jokes even an 8 year old would not be amused by. Its CGI on CGI. Plastic scenes, plastic planes Plastic Acting. Reynolds plays his usual role, sarcasm but extra dumbed down its past boring. He does now have a new aspect to his skillset, the inability to offer…

neutral · AI labelView post →With an ineffective music score, "Mayday" continues the curse of flat, over-bright cinematography plaguing streamer movie output. Branagh's good, but an INSANE amount of impressive visual effects can't disguise a script Frankensteined from many other movies. Wearisome Reynolds schtick. #filmsky
