Beautiful college students were advertised. Where? The 2 female leads were maybe cute. We see too much of the chunky male lead without his shirt. I guess he was what the director considered horror. The movie is not scary. Nothing happens most of the movie.

Woman in Car
(2021)
Boring
10 April 2022
A former athlete has regrets and develops a mid-life crisis when her step son returns for a visit with his girlfriend. Main character is uninteresting and I developed no sympathy for her. I wished woman in car drove into a wall 5 minutes into the movie so I can get my 1 hour and 45 minutes back. Recommended for insomniacs. This movie would put you to sleep.
Awake
(III) (2021)
Awake will make you go to sleep.
2 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The movie had potential. What we received was garbage. None of the characters were likable except the Black convict. Nobody could figure out the problem except an elementary school age girl. My recommendation is skip this movie. It is too bad I cannot give a half star.
Nice addition to the MCU
2 August 2021
The series features Falcon and Bucky. I enjoyed the series. We find out more about these supporting characters in the MCU as they take the center stage. There is decent action and some buddy buddy moments between Falcon and Bucky. I loved Netflix "Daredevil" and "Punisher", but this show is superior. The Disney Plus shows are 10 minutes shorter per episode, have some funny moments and more action than the Netflix Marvel shows.
Escape Room
(I) (2019)
Entertaining Low Budget Movie
28 August 2020
The movie is a solid thriller. People have to solve puzzles to get out each room before time runs out. If you participate in Escape Room challenges with friends or co-workers, there is a good chance you would appreciate this movie.
The Danger of Positive Thinking
(2018 TV Movie)
This movie should be on Lifetime.
17 August 2020
Some might wonder why I gave this movie such a "high score". The movie is for a certain genre who watch the Lifetime channel. The men are clueless and the women have a brain. Typical story: woman wants revenge since her mother followed the main character self-help book for advice with disastrous consequences. So she insulates herself into the author's life and causes trouble. Of course, nobody believes the author. Though I cannot blame the "teenage" son for following the Ashley Rickard character around like a love deprived puppy.
The idea with casting an actor who looked like a grad student as a 17 year old was mind boggling. Most of the cast looked like they stepped out of an Abercrombie and Fitch catalogue.
Watch it only if you like the movies on Lifetime.
Birds of Prey
(2020)
DC fans stay away.
17 August 2020
If you are DC comic fan purist, avoid like the plague. "The Birds of Prey" movie takes a different direction for the comic book. In the comic, the Birds of Prey team consist of Batgirl, (Caucasian) Black Canary and Huntress. In the movie, Huntress, Detective Montaya and multi-ethic Black Canary were the team. Victor Zsaaz is bald in the comic. He had short blond/ white hair in the movie. The movie tries to take a different direction from "Suicide Squad" and make it an action comedy. Gotham looks like sunny LA. Story is just mediocre. Harley has to work for Black Mask to get a diamond back.
If you have some time on a lazy Saturday, it is ok to watch on a streaming service provided you are not a DC fan.
The Bay
(2010– )
For Soap Fans only
22 April 2020
This serial is geared for soap opera aficionados only. Soaps are practically extinct now. This show bring back memories by including many soap vets from :"Days of Our Lives" - Kayla, Jack, Shawn Brady and Belle, "General Hospital" - Bobbie Spencer and Robert Scorpio, "Bold and the Beautiful " - the original Ridge and "Santa Barbara " - Mason Capwell and Lionel Lockridge. Episodes are 30 minutes. Acting is what you expect from a soap. This is not a Scorese film.
Recommended for soap fans only.
Shattered Memories
(2018 TV Movie)
Standard Lifetime movie fare
17 March 2020
Movie is typical what you find on Lifetime except I saw it on Netflix. Repressed married woman has an affair then regrets it. Throw in a murder and a memory blackout. Did she do it or not? Recommended only for Lifetime movie fans.
Bulletproof 2
(2020)
Watch Bullet Proof 1 instead.
10 March 2020
I enjoyed the 1st "Bullet Proof" . I did not care for the new main characters. Wayans and Sandler were far superior to the new characters bearing their names. I cannot buy Faizon Love as the real Jack Carter. Skip this sequel and watch the original
The Super
(2017)
Avoid.
26 February 2020
Snoozefest. Dick Wolf should stick to cops and robbers. I did not care for any characters. It is not very believable. When the killer is stalking his victims, the hapless victims runs through large open spaces in the basement with no people. Nothing was resolved at the end of the movie. Too bad the Ghostbusters could not have an appearance at the end of the movie.
Into the Ashes
(2019)
Very Slow Moving
8 February 2020
The acting is okay. The problem is none of the characters are likeable. The movie moves at a snail's pace. I did not care if the main character got his wife's murderer. There are better Frank Grillo movies out there like "Point Blank" and "the Purge Election Year".
