Letterkenny (2016–2023)

I don't know what to say...

[10/10 · 5 July 2016]

...other than how amazing this show is! After seeing the pilot, I rated the show a 9 but now that I've seen 6 episodes of it, I've been convinced to give it a 10.

Its not just a funny show, its actually got actual jokes in it. The characters are very lovable and they occasionally dig in deep about their backgrounds. Even the camera shots are very interesting at times.

Its consistent with the humor and the ridiculousness brilliance just sneaks up on you. This is a show you gotta try out just to see how it fares and if you actually get the humor, its gonna be the funniest thing ever!

The Transporter (2012–2014)

Too predictable

[4/10 · 26 December 2012]

Firstly, I'd like to say the only good thing I've seen by watching the first episode is Chris Vance's fighting.

Bullets nor rear ending and squishing other cars doesn't even scratch Frank's car. The script and acting of most of the actors are just terrible. Some scenes are just too predictable especially the excessive nudeness which I predicted would be seen often in this series just after seeing the opening scene.

I noticed the inspector from the original series is playing the same role. I'm just wondering why the other aspects couldn't be brought here. It doesn't have to be as good as the movies. Just better than this.

I hope it gets better in time.

Taken 2 (2012)

Horrific sequel to the Brilliant prequel

[4/10 · 21 December 2012]

What can I say... I just finished watching it and I just don't know what to say. I mean what the hell was Olivier Megaton thinking? First thing I noticed was how they tried to make Bryan Mills way too much like Bryan Mills. In Taken, we all noticed how disciplined and strong minded this man was. In this movie, they were just trying to exaggerate this way too much. And Bryan Mills would never let his daughter get into the middle of the fight while she could've gone to the American Embassy and gotten real help. The Albanians were just completely pointless. Their reason to kill Bryan Mills was pretty pointless too. I mean especially after knowing how capable he is and all that. He had to go through much tougher forces in the first movie than the ones faced here and yet he won. SO WHY WOULD THEY EVEN BOTHER? After all, in the first movie, the Albanians got killed because of what they were doing. AND GRENADES JUST THROW AROUND RANDOMLY LIKE THAT? WHAT? And also, at the hotel, when Bryan's daughter went down to the maids' locker room and stole some clothes, the maid there started screaming "Theif" or something like that. Why the hell would a maid bother about a thief when there was a shooting inside the hotel and it was in full alert mode? And lets not even get started on how Bryan Mills and his daughter rammed through an American barricade, WHILE they were being shot at by several 50 caliber machine guns which can even handle a couple of T-Rexes, with a 20 year old Merc taxi.

All I'm saying is, I've rarely been this disappointed by a sequel. Ever. Sorry about all the rage. Couldn't help myself...

Departures (2008– )

Makes me wanna seek and explore even more!

[10/10 · 5 December 2012]

The hosts, the way they present it, the direction of photography. Everything about this show is perfect.

For those who aren't familiar with this show, here's a little summary.

Three guy crew, best of friends, running around the world, going places just because they want to the world before it loses it's beauty. Two of these guys, Scott and Justin are on camera while Andre is behind the camera. They don't travel on a remarkably high budget. They just take the paths that most people wouldn't and end up showing the most beautiful sights that I've ever seen on TV.

This show should've been on for longer. It simply made me love the world more.
