My 14 year old son likes it.

16+ advisory posted. I shall burn in hell for allowing ( ha ha try stopping a teenager from something) After reading a BUNCH of reviews. Except the fake 10s I am surprised on the edge of chocked that the Music numbers it's a Musical has not been brought up - Some really good/enjoyable musical numbers. Just wish that there was a plot and less profanity. For the sake of profanity sake !

If the creators would stick to the Logline / Description of the show AND perhaps in later episodes they do., as I did 'chuckle' a few times in episode 2, I can see watching and buying a coffee mugs and another posters to hang over my Farrah Faucet.

Fool Me Once (2024)

Watch the first and last Episode

[3/10 · 13 January 2024]

Here is my advice and I have to admit I read another review who suggested it. Watch the first episode ( 1/2 will be fine) then SKIM a new term when watching these limited over bloated series with sub plots and characters that go no where. THEN

Drop down to another paragraph for dramatic purpose Watch the last episode - the ending , (thou the acting is a tad over the top). Good enough to make you go "hmmmm." With script writing like this thou.

Example: "There's something more going on with you. First, you lose your sister. Now Joe. And all that army business." Mom touches her face for comfort and then says "I'd better attend to the guests".

The script also has a habit , a failure when you adaptation from a book, of telling us ( the audience ) what we just saw.

OFF topic - please stop showing us entry and exit wounds - and the splatter of blood as the bullet enters the body.

Concerned viewer.

Leave the World Behind (2023)

Say WhAt ?

[3/10 · 12 December 2023]

I give it 3 stars. CuZ of the Frustration that the people involved had to go thru..

Spell check please - Potential - judging by the cast - AND I must say in Julia's defense, she has no idea how the movie is going to come together - she's hitting her 'marks' for that day - The Editors must of lost 10 years of their lives trying to save this mess.

1) You rent a house - the owners return Are you going to deny them, and would you not feel uncomfortable sleeping in their BED? You telling me that that home only has 3 bedrooms ?

2) What crashed the first Tesla ?

3) You walk over a hill - see a watch poking out of the sand YET do not see the Crash site or any other bodies? Which is clearly revealed in the next shot.

4) Who walks into the forest with no shoes. AND how in the heck does the Mom no where to go.. Kudos to the person who made the trailer.

5) There is electricity / water the entire time. Hmmmm

6) YEs. Why is the owner of the house still in wet clothes and by the passing of time WHY are they still percived as wet. Or more to the point WHY do we care.

6a) What was the deal with the Spanish character Scene ...I got the Casa - but, not sure about the rest?

7) the owner of the house states that the nearest neighbor is only a few miles away. Yet the young 13 daughter is able to walk to a nearby house for the dramatic ending to the movie when it is revealed .. Oh Screw it . It is what it is

8) If a plane crashes in front of you so much that the impact causes you to get wet... Go down to the site and see if you can help and if not Take a few Selfie Pictures.

YOu have the power to fast forward and as a few ( more than 1) reviewer as written..... Fast Forward thru the long dialogue.

The Adventure of A.R.I.: My Robot Friend (2020)

Barely enough to fill a trailer.

[3/10 · 9 April 2020]

Kudos to the marketing department and editor - Worth the $5.99 rental? Sure, only because and the amount of work that went into making , finishing & marketing.

Who is this movie is made for ? I watched with my 11 year old who commented how bad some of the effects looked. I rated 3 stars because of major flaws. #1, #4, #5 and especially #8. When it comes to being a Family Movie.

1) The Robot Friend was simply to big to fit into that Backpack. 2) IF the Robot's power life is based on the amount used - Why waist on - un necessary activities. 3) The Robot knows he has USB port , but not how to charge himself. 4) Flying cars, and Unlimited power, yet these are not discovered or used. 5) The Robot suit ( a rip off of Ironman ) way to small with to many wires to fit Josh. 6) Josh instantly knows how to operate the suit. 7) The bully scene - So many things wrong with it. It is a good thing that the actor knew where a perfectly good tomato is. Josh seemed to have done nothing to cause the 1 bully and not so bully run off. 8) It is OK to not do your assignment, steal, and blackmail your brother who sneaks out at night. That's a good Kids movie. 9) The urgency? As my 11 yr. son pointed out - if your phone battery dies - You simply recharge and turn it back on. 10) Two Microwaves? - not sure why the restaurant was the only place. AND not sure what the doctor ( Robot's dad) was going to do if an Employee didn't have 2.5 glasses.

Hope the movie makes enough money to make another - AND more thought goes into the writing.

Pine Gap (2018)

Lots of filler...

[3/10 · 14 December 2018]

I only found two characters interesting. Production KREW....please watch your skylines.. it was so obvious that you show the bus driving away then hours later you show the bus returning - Yet the clouds remain the same..

EXT. HIGHWAY - DAY Lets shoot the bus leaving then have it turn around and show it returning - OK next shot...no one will notice.
