High-Rise Rescue (2017)
Poor Writing; always too much drama!
This movie in my opinion was poorly written by those having no fire fighting knowledge or experience. Throughout the movie you didn't hardly see any firemen in the building fighting the fires with fire hoses and fire fighting equipment! For Catherine Bell supposedly being an Architect (engineer), she sure didn't act like one and follow common sense approaches, there again, not keeping track of your cellphone; I know it's for drama! The writers should have gone and watched the old episodes of "Emergency" last few episodes they had a fire in a high rise! They actually showed how the firefighters went floor by floor fighting the fire. Also the sprinkling system is basically designed fail proof!
A Match Made at Christmas (2021)
The Christmas Loser
I really had difficulty watching this movie, and even more so enjoying it. The character "Chris" played by Tim Llewellyn is the most obnoxious, cruel, and downright disgusting individual to be in a Christmas movie that I've ever seen. He definitely has many issues, and knowing him as a roommate, I don't believe I would have chosen him and my best man. If I would had been Holly, he would have been slapped numerous times. I believe that the character of Holly played by Micah Lynn Hanson did a pretty good job portraying her character. Not sure what the writers and producers had in mind, but I sure won't waste my time ever watching again! Oh, I guess he did try and redeem himself in the last 5 minutes!
On a Wing and a Prayer (2023)
Distracting and frustrating
I'm totally confused as to why the writing included two kids who have nothing to do with the story, and a husband and wife sitting in a garage in Connecticut trying to help the pilot fly this plane, who there again complicate the story line! When the wife of the pilot trainer starts building the cockpit controls, I just shook my head, like really? Then, in bad weather, out of bad weather, just like that; what was that? Hollywood writers are very similar to our journalists these days; ineffective! I've always enjoyed Dennis Quaids movies for the most part, but unfortunately, he latched on the a poorly written and directed movie! And to top it all off; horrible CGI during the landing.
