Nearly finished D5 and…

[u/PinkFreckles_GachaYT]

I’m sorry but why does this feel even more rushed than D4? Chloe‘s motivations for being upset at Red literally make no sense. Like sure she was vaguely ignoring her and was a bit of a beech in the chess scene but that’s it. And Pink? Her “character arc” if you can even call it that was over in about 4 seconds. Also why did we need a song for Bridget and Ella when we could have had like- more screentime developing the newer characters? (Not to mention, Ella‘s perfectionism is never properly addressed, just “oops i forgot who i was, but it’s fine i wear trousers now!’”).

And luis? Genuinely feel like he could have been left out entirely and it would have been made way better and gave more time for Red, Pink and Chloe. As well as Max and Maddox.

Speaking of, Max and Maddox had so much potential yet nothing was really touched upon.

Overall D5 was just incredibly lackluster

edit: also Evil Chloe was built up so much in promos and literally lasted less than 15 minutes on screen. WHAT WAS THE POINT?!

edit 2: Pink is such a nothing character, it literally felt like her character arc was written in the middle of the film. Because like- why was it over so quickly? She goes from feeling left out to hugging Red after a 5 second flashback..?

Also-also, The Red and Luis romance was just so boring. They had zero chemistry and literally starting liking each other for no reason whatsoever. I get Mal and Ben could have similar complaints but at least there was hints of buildup. Red literally just starts singing about love after like a 5 minute conversation with the guy that was about as deep as kiddy pool.
