Poor Things (2023)
I don't know why all the hoopla about this movie
I don't know why all the hoopla about this movie I don't know why most people loved it. I watched 15 - 20 minutes and thought life is too short, and turned the channel. I just couldn't get into it. I didn't like the characters at all. And I thought it was going to be a good movie. Specifically with the cast they had. It's been a while since I seen a good movie, and when I saw the 8 stars for this movie. I thought great :) It should be really good. I really wanted to like it. Truely I did. I saw Emma Stone and Willem Dafoe from Spiderman I became so enthralled about watching this movie. Lights down and popcorn in our bowl. I was ready for a evening of enjoyment. Then it started. Well when first saw Emma Stone I thought OK I can handle this once we get into the story. Then about 10-15 minutes I could stand it anymore. She was so nauseating. This movie sucks big time. I just couldn't get into it, neither did my husband. And yet many thought it was so great. OMG The world is going off it's rocker lol Oh well! Thank goodness it was on Disney and I didn't pay to go to a theater. I would have walked out.
Shining Vale (2022)
Love the show
Almost didn't watch it because I thought it was like all the rest of them. Like watching water boil. But I was pleasantly surprised when I decided to give it a try.
It's quite funny and I do enjoy all the characters. They fit together well. My only beef is that there is only 8 episodes per season. No that is not enough episodes for the year! Why are they being so stingy with the episodes? What working 2-3 weeks a year too much work for them? :) I have found that shows that have so few episodes the people age too quickly. At least they are moving this show along each week so we don't get bored. I think they found a fit for Courteney Cox. So good luck to the show and I hope for longevity for you all.
Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)
visuals are good but storyline not so good
I too wanted to see this movie and was hoping it would be almost as good as the first. The visuals are good but without a story line to keep me interested, it really fails. I didn't like it and was so bored. The first avatar was a lot better. I thought they introduced the characters so much better. I thought Avatar the way of water came on too fast as they invaded Pandora. I thought they could have elaborated quite a bit further at the beginning on how earth was dying, right up to the time they entered Pandora. It was like they rushed the movie just so they could hurried up to do nothing much. I like it when they lead up to a war (how how's and why's) not just a bunch of fighting. Once you see a bunch of fighting it all looks a like. Not saying a good fighting scene isn't needed. Just don't make it feel like it is lasting for eternity. The special effects are good but not that good :) When are they going to learn. The visuals make a great movie fantastic. All great movies have a great story lines. So what happen to this one. It's not like there wasn't enough time or money thrown towards this movie. Too bad. Better luck next time.
Name That Tune (2021)
Jane Krakowski wear some apropriate clothes
Jane Krakowski why are you degrading yourself with your clothes that reveille far too much. I don't want to see this. For such a pretty woman you don't have to do this to get people to see your nice figure. Slutty is not a good way to go. And what about the director and others on the show? Why aren't they telling her to get some clothes on. I used to really like the show but when I see this unprofessional dressing I just turn the channel. The show is about the contestants not the hosts. Which is too bad because the show is not that bad if I could just get passed the short short shirts and the boobies. Hopefully you'll change thing around and who knows you just might be around for many years to come. Name that tune is a fun game show!! Please Do it good!
The Old Man (2022)
gave it a 5 hoping it gets better
I thought it was boring. Come on just what I want to watch is a 73 year old guy pretending to be witty and tough. The show was going nowhere real fast. Yawn, It was the toughest 10 he ever fought and he always came up being the victor. It's a miracle. I hate the long drawn out scenes where they stretch the scenes so badly. Gees if they do that on the first episode not much luck for the remaining episodes. I did give it a 5 star because I'm hoping it gets better. Something tells me it won't. It's to bad I like Jeff Bridges. Next one please!!
Don't Look Up (2021)
Real bad un watchable
I was actually looking forward to watching this. I haven't seen a end of the world movie for a while. I couldn't believe all the high paid actors that were in this film and to be such a bad movie. I would have turn it off in the first 20 mins but my grandson wanted to watch it. So all we did was complain about it all the way through. I know I was praying for it to get better but it didn't. I only reason we watched was because imdb said it was over 7. I thought it had to be good.. I should have gone to other rating sites. I don't know who on earth would give this a 7 rating. Absolute garbage. Serious don't bother with this one. I have a feeling someone is manipulating the ratings because there is noway anyone could rate this over 7. It was a disgrace to use all these fine actors and waste it on a movie like this. Real Sad!!
Mental Samurai (2019)
Could have enjoyed it but camera man kept moving away from the puzzle.
First time watcher of the show. I wanted to like it. I like good game shows. But the cameraman kept moving away from the puzzles and showing the surrounding area and the faces of Rob Lowe and contestant. And just as I was figuring the puzzle out the cameraman moved it to Rob Lowes face and then the Contestant. Not just the once either. It's frustrating. The cameraman did this through out the show. Maybe they don't want people to play along. But then who wants to watch this show? One more thing, I really didn't see how that octopus ride they have added any value to the game it could be done differently but that in itself wouldn't stop me from watching it again. But the way camera took the shots sure did.
The Lie (2018)
I thought is was as good movie.
Not sure why it got bad reviews. I am fussy on what I watch. If it doesn't keep my interest with the first 15-20 minute I don't watch it. Well of course It did. I enjoyed the whole movie. Too me 8 stars is a very good movie and that is why I gave it :) It leaves room for great movies. I'm beginning to like Peter Sarsgaard (played the father) as a actor. I hope he keeps picking good movies and shows in the future.
Creepshow: Gray Matter/The House of the Head (2019)
Boring... What a waste of time.
I really liked the older Creepshows. So when I heard they were playing this series on AMC I was right there. They do have some cast members that are well known but that wasn't enough. Boring is to say the least. It was just so dumb. I think it was the way they told the story. I have a good imagination and I really wanted to like it but this is bad.
I'm going to watch the last episode and see if it is any better... Maybe everyone was still in the learning stages and hopefully the series got better with time. I'll see...
Messiah (2020)
Enjoyed it completely
Ok I'm not religious but I really liked the show. I have to admit it got a little slow in the middle episodes but soon picked up the pace and it was great again. The acting was good and enjoyed all the characters and it had a good storyline. Everything I could ask for in a film.
The Society (2019)
One of the best series I have seen in a while.
I really enjoyed it. It got me interested in the characters right from the start. I thought they could have left out all the sexual scenes and let younger viewer watch the show. And of course they had their homosexual agendas also. What else is new. Could really done without that too.
I just thought it was such a good storyline that it would keep the interest of the younger kids maybe 10 and above (of course depending on the kid). Ever hear of watching TV together :)
But all in all I enjoyed the series very much.
The Spanish Princess (2019)
I am enjoying this show
I am enjoying this show. I know it is not factual but it's good watch it. We enjoy picking out the differences between this version and historical version. It's entertaining and I look forward to the next episode.
The Slap (2015)
I really like this mini series
warning spoiler alert... even though the title says it all :) At first thought I wondered how are they going to pull it off. It really does sound Boring. But after watching the first episode I was hooked. I guess it didn't hurt I like all the actors and they all did such a great job and the writers did a outstanding job on the script.
This is almost like watching my family. I think there is one in every family that allows their kids to get away with everything. And the breast feeding lol thank goodness not in my family but I have seen this and in public. Not for me thank You. I think Harry just did what most of us would like to do with children like this :) Not that I am condoning to ever hit another persons child. But there were times when I felt like it.
The story is around The Slap but it is much more than that. One episode left for me to watch. Win Lose or draw... I think everyone is going to lose on this one. If you are on the fence on watching The Slap. Try it you'll like it!!
