Watched The Expanse so you don't have to. You're welcome.

The Expanse is a cinematic experience designed specifically for film students who want to feel superior at dinner parties.

Counted the jumpscares in The Expanse. Lost count. Lost interest. Refunded the popcorn emotionally.

The Expanse is what happens when a writers' room confuses "ambiguous" with "didn't finish the draft".

Hot Take: The Expanse's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Just got out of The Expanse and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Unpopular opinion: The Expanse is the most overrated film of the decade

Honestly, The Expanse would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in The Expanse actually is?

Rewatched The Expanse last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in The Expanse?

Everyone praising the The Expanse performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
