Airliner Sky Battle (2020)
Undeserving of Such a bad score
Even my title page says please find me something to watch. I browsed the reviews of this movie in the morning since it was available to watch, and met nothing with negativity. I watched it regardless, wanting secretly to laugh at the super feats of some ill equipped puny person. But what I got was a real movie. The acting was poor because they obviously did not have the bucks of the super studios. But what have those big film makers given us in the last year of worth? Absolutely nothing. Maybe a movie in this form with good actors could have made Hollywood their next half-billion box office, but we are all stuck in our armchairs watching bad stuff that they like to shove down out throats. So I'm giving this one a 9 for what it might have been and for what Hollywood ought to have been, but they are not. I urge somebody else to do the same.
In Plain Sight (2016)
Nicely piece of vintage TV set in Scotland
Looking for advice on the new Miss Mary McCormack drama with the same name I clicked this one by accident. It seemed more interesting, so I streamed all 3 episodes. Oh so glad I did. It is a Police drama set in 1980s Scotland, which I can only describe as a sort of whodunnit in reverse. Very recommendable.
Tehran (2020)
Has the atmosphere of a good Spy Drama
I quite like the Iranian guys, they look realistic enough, with that rugged look like they've been around when it mattered, and occasionally with a tender side, which was a great detail. Can't say the same for that scrawny agent named Niv. They would have her for breakfast. When you start liking one side and not the other it makes me wonder what these TV people are really up to. Or was it simply that they were told to cast Niv as a girl when all logic says don't do it.
Barbarians (2020)
'fast dort' or 'kind of'
I have a German channel on my cable so was interested in this because it has subtitles, seeing I also know some German which was OK since the other sides were showing their usual ****. That woman witch that is also a PT warrior really needed more Armour and some gym time to be able to fight hefty Roman legionaries, and perhaps a gun, or they would have made strudel out of her. So a bit low on money to do the battles as good as Games of Thrones, but it must have been that Arminius bloke's lucky day.
