Ok, I'm trying again, and I hope not in vain.
We also use such a word as "sequel", maybe we just pronounce it somewhat Russian: сиквел [SI-kvel]. You can say "продолжение" [pra-dal-ZHE-ni-ye], it's more common than "sequel".
I'm not sure if there's an expression similar to "counter-climatic" in Russian. I think, in this case you can say: Этот фильм не оправдал моих ожиданий. That means: This movie didn't live up to my expectations. Surely, you can use it saying not about the movies only.
Starring role - гавная роль [GLAV-na-ya rol']
TV series - сериал [si-ri-Al]
cinemaddict - киноман [ki-na-MAN] or
movie-goer / film-fan – любитель кино [liu-BI-tel' ki-NO]
flea-pit - дешёвое кино [di-SHO-va-ye ki-NO]
blooper (goof) - киноляп [ki-na-LIAP]
to get the feel of one's role - вжиться в роль/образ [VZHI-tsa v rol'/ OB-ras]
For example, Ashton Kutcher got the feel of Steve Jobs' role. - Эштон Кутчер вжился в роль/образ Стива Джобса.
The actors couldn’t act their way out of a paper bag! - Актёры играли просто ужасно!
This movie turned out to be [a bomb]. (This means that the movie turned out to be bad, doesn't it?) - Этот фильм оказался [полным провалом].

Very popular expression is:
"Всё! Кина не будет!"
The indeclinable word of "кино" is intentionally distorted. The phrase means that to something the unexpected end came. As though the film unexpectedly was broken.
Sometimes about any funny situation speak:
"Кино и немцы!"
It, is possible, because many years in the USSR the most fascinating films were films about the Second World War.
