Dracula (2020)
6/10
2 out of 3
5 January 2020
When I first found this I was curious mainly because while there have been many.. many.. many.. movies about Dracula there have been few TV shows. I have read many of the other reviews and mainly I've seen love/hate and little middle ground. So that's where this review comes in. If you enjoy Dracula in general the way way I always have since I was a kid I'd recommend watching the first two episodes. While there were changes to the story, they were minor enough that they could be overlooked, and fresh enough to offer a real treat. At that point, just stop. I was excited to see how things turned out in the final episode and overall I was left disappointed. In my opinion the writers just overreached themselves, and basically just tried to force a square peg into a round hole. It didn't work, and the ending was utterly disappointing.

So, give the first two episodes a watch, they were very well done.. and skip the third episode.. its.. terrible...

Northern Lights (2009 TV Movie)
Cant they make a decent movie??

"They keep taking Nora Roberts and pairing her wonderful novels to barely anything at all. Why does a mediocre guy like Nicholas Sparks get all of his novels on the big screen and Nora gets no special treatment beyond stunt casting?"

I agree with this sentiment 100%.

I read a lot, always have. I've never been a big romance or mystery lover but the first time i picked up a Nora Roberts novel I absolutely loved it and have read every book of hers I could find overseas since. I especially like her titles under her J.D. Rob pseudonym. The In Death line of books are fantastic! I just wish they could take such wonderful work.. and make a movie of at least near equal quality.
