Heroes Reborn (2015)
Let the heroes fight please!
I am a fan of heroes of the first version. And it was exiting for me to wait for this 'reborn' but it was not fun to watch. It does not really drag you to the story nor to the characters.
Mystery is good up to some level, beyond that, I believe it will be nonsense. Which happened here, many characters are introduced without a good background, hard to track what is actually going on. In the end you may want to say "Whatever!".
Secondly some scenes has to be explained otherwise you will think writer is massing with your logic. I can believe that somebody is flying because it has some special power but I cant understand how two normal person come and kill bunch of heroes which have some special powers. One of them has flash power, can move fast but his speed only works to be shoot by a bullet and die faster? The other hero was about to send a fireball, but it took so long that that one of the normal person found a fire distinguisher and stopped him. Really? Why not fire with the gun? To make of fun of heroes' powers? Whatever the reason is it is does not make sense. Another scene, Benet, the guy used to have glass. I don't remember why the glass is that important. How can somebody forgot he needs glass? Maybe somebody erased his brain but did they also erase his mind? You may forget your name but you cant forget that you need glass. Your eyes will scream every second "I cant see it right!". How about the meeting with the mind blowing guy(!). Benet finds a card and visit a glass shop. The secretary or the girl in the main desk tries to kill Benet, but his old friend stop her and ask him to meet somewhere. Benet goes that place but guess what? The old friend only came to bring his glass and to kill him. If you were about to kill why did not you let the girl do it? What is it with the glass, why a person gives a glass to person that he is about to kill? How can a person get rid of from such a deadly approach and kills the person in his back? If you were to vote who will be the killer, the black guy or the white guy, I believe you would favor on the black one. Because he looks stronger and he is coming from back with a deadly rope. We can mention many more such scenes which are hard to explain. Anyway, in the end you will say " Nah, I don't buy it".
The last but may be the most bothering is "the concept of heroes". Why heroes are not happy that they have special powers? To have a regular life? I don't understand this. Why always heroes are hunted by humans? Why the humankind is hunting them instead of benefiting them. For me the audience wants the heroes show their abilities, do some fun stuff. This a natural request I guess, that is what heroes are for, right? But because of this hunt cliché, in these heroes movies and TV series heroes suppress their powers. This is very disappointing.
I guess my expectation for "free heroes which show their powers" has to wait again for another TV series. Let the heroes fight whether bad heroes vs good heroes, or good heroes vs evils from outside world. That will be more fun than this drama, mystery mix type thing whatever you want to call..
Gotham (2014)
Batman Fans Deserve Better Script
Why did the thief kill Wayne family even he got what he asked for?
When did Gordon assigned to the Gotham police department, what is it in his background make him war hero or a special one?
Why the guy ran away from home and got himself killed when the police said they want to search his home? His wife said he will never kill a man then why did he try to kill a policeman?
Why did Penguin killed the innocent man? Is it because he is psychopath? How about the young version of catwoman, why is she everywhere? Is she mentally ill and trying to be a camera?
There are lots of scenes does not make sense, audience needs explanation. Dialogs requires more story background to make sense.
Or maybe as batman fans we should reduce our expectations. Pilot episode was not promising for me. I hope I am wrong.
Zaman Makinesi 1973 (2014)
Failure of a Good Concept
Such a failure of a cool concept. Seems this movie made for comedy, but no funny joke or no funny scene can be found in it. I wonder whether this movie was made for kids. A man goes back in time but no explanation is being made how he did it. A boy helps him, take him to his home and his family let this guy to live in the home for a while for no reason. A brother strict as hell has a sister like his opposite. And this sister seemed loved the guy who came from the future and she had some time with him. But guess what? In the end she confess that she loves someone else. Impossible to imagine, impossible to accept. People are poor in 1973 but still everybody has a car. This movie is such an insult to any mature audience. No logical explanation, no funny joke, no valuable character. I don't count the dialog about Obama Joke also, because it could be very funny but they also failed that. Don't waste your time by watching this nonsense movie.
The Strain (2014)
Such a good Sci-fi Style Series with some Scary and Weird Scenes
Such a breath taking TV series. Very good story line will keep you in the seat and you will pray that they don't cut the story to continue in the next episodes. It is really hard to say who will be the leading character, but you will not care I believe.
Right now, there is under 500 ratings and the average is around 9.1. I believe it will be around 8-8.5 once more ratings are given. Because it has some clichés, weak characters weak plays. But it is almost unavoidable for this type of TV series and movies, it could be reduced a little bit. And the scary scenes doesn't have to be disgusting like that. That is why I gave 8 not 10.
Kogus Akademisi (2013)
Another disappointment
This movie would be so fun if i were 6 years old or if it was released in 70s. Lots of cliché, nothing new, no good jokes, bad story, stupid dialogs. It is another low level Turkish movie. I just wonder whether the movie makers watch it ever or not, to see how stupid it became when it is completed. A movie will not become funny by just saying bad words like f**k after each sentence. Come on producers directors grown up do some good jokes in comedy movies. If you cannot just leave it to the ones who does it right like Hollywood. Don't waste our time. I am a victim of overly commercialized movie which worths nothing. Unfortunately you cannot tell until you finish it.
