Conjuring 2 comes across as too invested in the successful Conjuring formula to stand on its own: once again, Wan and company mix in a distracting secondary story, give each of the kids their own distinct terror moments, and follow them around the house with a moving camera intended to clearly establish the house's geography.
And he is diligent in documenting what comes across as Brooks's rapacious need to receive the lion's share of recognition on works he produced with collaborators, sometimes undercutting creative partners like Buck Henry (to whom Brooks would later apologize for not more fully crediting his contributions in the making of the television series "Get Smart").
In one of the clips, Brancusi turns his camera on a pacing hawk, which comes across as a close, natural analog to the many "birds" he created as sculptures — not because it looks all that much like them, but because it seems to be a model for the animation he's after when he carves.
Rather, he comes across as an aging rebel worried about being judged un-hip, clearly over-compensating in order to remain one step ahead of fellow stylists Zack Snyder (300), Tarsem Singh (Mirror Mirror), and Alex Proyas (Gods of Egypt) — all of whose genuinely outrageous, inadvertently awful work appears to be a source of inspiration here.
That's a relatively small detail — a tiny change in the editing of the sequence would make it play out very differently — but Hopper yelling "He's gone, he's gone!" at Joyce to get her to leave Bob behind, while Bob is still writhing on the floor, reaching desperately toward their retreating backs, comes across as jumping the gun.
"Can he move himself from being primary candidate who sometimes comes across as the host of a reality TV to show himself as a possible President of the United States?" said Bill Lacy, a veteran GOP hand who worked for Ronald Reagan in the White House and on the presidential campaigns of Bob Dole and George H.W. Bush.
Some of Baby and Debora's lines about leaving it all behind and heading west can veer into cliché territory, and although James does her best to make Debora feel as real as possible, the film's biggest flaw is that her character comes across as more of a goal for Baby to attain than an actual human being.
He also comes across as a bit of a prick: There's so much to commend in Lemmy's worldview: his fuck-you attitude to authority, his intolerance for bullshit, but an inability to live with woman as soon as they do basic human stuff didn't seem like the behaviour of someone I saw as a role model.
"But given the recent history of Justice Department leadership engaging in public messaging that comes across as scripted by the White House, it is not unreasonable to have concerns about the consultation with the department in this instance," said David H. Laufman, who served as chief of the counterintelligence section in the Justice Department's National Security Division.
Mr. Macron has something of the image of a wunderkind who has leapfrogged his way to the top, while Mr. Hollande comes across as a political character who proceeded step by step and who had the misfortune to come to power at a difficult time and without the mandate for change that Mr. Macron hopes to profit from.
It's unfair to make Daisy Ridley, now a stalwart of "Star Wars," swap her lightsabre for a waist-length tangerine wig, and, as for Hamlet, he comes across as a weedy specimen whose lust for revenge, with an unpropitiated ghost on the loose, looks less urgent than his need for a hot drink and a good cry.
The tragedy he embraced on every song before his death at the age of 21 now comes across as foreshadowing—"Break my bones but act as my spine / Wonder who you'll fuck when I die," he sings on "16 Lines"—and it makes Come Over When You're Sober Pt. 2 a difficult listen that will, paradoxically, comfort his millions of fans.
In many ways, Mills and Snowden seem like a case study in opposites attract: While he comes across as a privacy-seeking introvert in Citizenfour, the 2014 Oscar-winning documentary about his decision to leak thousands of classified documents, Mills is much more open, posting scantily-clad photos of herself online, and even a pole-dancing video of herself on YouTube.
"Donald Trump is his own strategist, campaign manager, and tactician, and all credit for his incredible election belongs to him," Stone writes in his book, "The Making of the President 2016: How Donald Trump Orchestrated a Revolution," a score-settling account against everyone who has ever upset Roger Stone, which comes across as a feverish and dubiously sourced campaign journal.
"Tony Campolo, a founder of the Red Letter Christian Movement, added that "the true Jesus is neither a Republican nor a Democrat, but what I often hear preached on some radio and television programs seems to me to be an American Jesus who differs from the Jesus that I read about in the gospels, and often comes across as being politically partisan.
In keeping with the comedy style present in a lot of Funny or Die's stuff, "Miyubi" is a lot more about nostalgia than gut-busting laughs, but it still comes across as a very thoughtful adoption of VR as a medium, even if the 80s-drenched storyline relies a bit too heavily on John Hughes-era tropes, given how long it is.
Among the smallest works in either show, a roughly 8-by-14-inch "Standard Candles" (no numeration appears on the checklist) comprises a double-wide box-jointed frame of unfinished wood enclosing a sheet of frosted Plexiglas; the wall behind the Plexi is painted a color that we don't see directly but that, filtered through the Plexi, comes across as a gentle but insistent rosy pink.
It's a perception that's held up in the press he's done over the years, in which he comes across as down-to-earth, self-effacing, prone to punctuating his speech with the word "honestly," and appealingly fond of talking about how much he loves his wife Emily Blunt, with whom he has two kids, and who's indirectly responsible for the best parts of his careful interviews.
Celeste's time on the stand is meant to shock, and it comes across as so out-of-bounds ghoulish in order to make a bigger point: that victims like Celeste, and particularly women, don't come forward because society (as represented by Ira) will make them relive their abuse, constantly doubt them, paint them as liars, and make them feel like what happened to them is their fault.
The novel opens in 1816, as Mary Shelley, on the cusp of writing what is to become her magnum opus, is holed up in a lakeside villa with her lover, Percy Bysshe; turgid stepsister, Claire; Claire's bit on the side, Lord Byron (who comes across as a 19th-century mansplainer extraordinaire); and Byron's doctor, the wannabe author Polidori (credited with writing the precursor to "Dracula").
Hillary ClintonHillary Diane Rodham ClintonTop Sanders adviser: Warren isn't competing for 'same pool of voters' Anti-Trump vets join Steyer group in pressing Democrats to impeach Trump Republicans plot comeback in New Jersey MORE is pushing back on the perception that she is "cold or unemotional," saying that while she sometimes comes across as "walled off," she learned at a young age the necessity of controlling her emotions.
Clinton has struggled throughout her career to seem "authentic," whatever that means, and there are several places in the book where she comes across as genuinely likable: Her love for her daughter, her grandchildren, her parents, and even her husband is quite moving, and she's particularly compelling when taking on Trump and the GOP, like when she wryly admits to mistaking Jason Chaffetz for fellow nondescript white man Reince Preibus.
There are missteps, because even gods have their failings—"Wildest Dreams" comes across as a tired Lana Del Rey reboot, and the Pet Shop Boys-recalling bonus track "New Romantics" should've undoubtedly made the album's final cut—but otherwise, West has delivered a millennial pop fever dream with The Life of Pablo, a generous gesture of a record with plenty of room for the haters to hate, hate, hate.
Genius-among-us Björk recently went on the record demanding credit for her work producing her albums, and even she had to laugh it off and couch it in apologies ("It always comes across as so defensive that, like, it's pathetic … I hope it doesn't come across as too defensive") and noted that even when her male collaborators tried to correct the record in the media, no one listened.
