Blockbuster (2022)
Wanted to like it
It only lasted 10 episodes, and I can see why. I wanted to like the characters, but everything seemed so forced and scripted. Timmy's "clever" lines were all quotes from previous movies, but never hit the mark.
I don't think I chuckled at all, even through the finale. The whole "will they/won't they" between the two main characters doesn't make sense or mesh well.
The failed relationships that they are trying to salvage don't feel real or likable. There's no sense of connection between anyone and the coincidences of people "running into each other pivotal moments" are staggering.
Even the appearance of Bobby Moynihan (who I adore!) couldn't save anything. Unfortunately, it is probably for the best that Netflix killed Blockbuster for the 2nd time.
Gary Unmarried (2008)
Suspend your belief and it gets better
Jay Mohr is your typical divorced schlub who hates his ex-wife and takes every chance to make a witty "scathing" remark. For some reason, every attractive lady finds Jay irresistible and he somehow ends up in love triangles. They jump the shark early and often. References are a bit dated, but there are some laughs here and there. It feels like a standup routine come to life, which may or may not be a good thing.
Conan O'Brien Can't Stop (2011)
Conan Can't Stop His Genius
First off, I haven't finished this yet. It isn't quite what I expected, I understand this is a documentary and there is language, but it almost seemed they were going out of their way to cuss up a storm.
I was surprised at the depression that Conan went through. His sadness was almost overwhelming, but his persistence and drive to keep going definitely blew this out of the water. I highly recommend watching Conan's last NBC show and his heart-felt thanks and humility are a nice balancing act.
This was fun to watch (minus the language), and I plan on finishing it soon. Thanks for the memories, laughter and companionship for the journey of Conan.

Citizen Kane (1941)
Horrible!
Every film critic says this movie is sooo good. That is an absolute out-and-out LIE! The techniques and junk used in this film were revolutionary and garbage like that, but the movie itself SUCKED! The story line: dung from a dog, the acting; blech! Vomit-inducing! All-in-all, I want my two and a half hours back. You might as well poke yourself in the eyes and save yourself the "pleasure" of seeing this movie. Garbage, refuse, and trash! Since the feedback requires ten lines of information, more slamming is coming this horrible excretable mass's way. There is no redeeming value in this movie. The movie should be rated on the actual MOVIE, not the techniques used in shooting it. There is no way that this should even be on the shelves at BlockBuster, it should be behind the dumpster at McDonald's. In the words of Jay Sherman, "It stinks!" Are you happy now?
