Halo (2022– )

Season 2 is absurd

[5/10 · 10 March 2024]

I didn't really play halo. So I had no real idea of the story. I have a friend who played it and wasn't a fan of season 1 because of the story arc. I personally really like season 1. I thought it was a good sci-fi series with a concise direction with the artifacts.

Season 2 is awful. They basically scrap any real direction season 1 had and threw it out the window. It's as if they had enough material for one season then hired all new writers and asked them to get season 2 out there.

It's all a mystery now. Nobody knows whata going on. Episode to episode bring the viewer no closer to understand what's going. I made it to episode 4 and I think I'm just done. You had something and now it's just nonsense mystery. I'm sure it'll all tie up in the last 2 episodes but it's not fun to watch because it's just incoherant nonsense.

Rebel Moon - Part One: A Child of Fire (2023)

Just meh,,,cuffs for trying

[5/10 · 22 December 2023]

Like some others have said...it's got all the pieces but it's disjointed on so many levels it's hard to put a finger on it. Story could be something to build on but it's executed in such a hallow way the characters seem overly ridiculously evil or naive . Fight scenes are annoying my shot from fast to slow motion, not in a good way.

They have good actors, I'm not sure why everyone seems so wooded in their dialect.

Did I mention scenes go to slow motion for no paticular reason, then go back to normal speed. I'm curious if it's a funding issue. It almost seem the script was very loosely boarded and everyone improvised.

The Witcher (2019– )

Season 3 is awful

[3/10 · 16 August 2023]

I can totally understand now why Cavill had issue with the script. The show is basically unwatchable. Netflix would be wise to forgo 4th season. Season three is a cluster, storylines don't tie together. Action scenes seem like they are added as an afterthought. Make character that in no way match book or game material. It's as though Cavill is the Witcher and everyone else decide to join another show....director and writers should look at the expanse and game of thrones as to how sticking to source material makes the best content. Then see how later when it diverges, it grossly affect the product.

Silo (2023– )

Boring, boring , nothing happens past 1st episode

[3/10 · 31 May 2023]

Couldn't understand the hype. Watched the 1st episode and though, ok, they might have something. Supposedly based off a novel. I say supposedly because the next 4 episode we're so boring I had to get the audible book and figure out if the book was just as bad. Needless to say this show stray rather wide from source material. Not in a good way. Five episodes in and the story as progressed about an hour. Give 3 stars for set design. It looks like a place where generations have lived. Don't understand why tv rights can't at least try to stick with some of the source material other than in name only. There's a reason people liked the source material.

The Peripheral (2022)

Great start

[9/10 · 23 October 2022]

Don't read or listen to negative critics. Seriously read 3 articles about how this was a disappointing series.

Could t be farther from the truth. At least for the first 2 episodes, it has been a fantastic sci-fi kick of series

I have not read the books but the story and and the writ ring so far has been great. I hope the rest of the series is as compelling as the 1st two episodes.

I wonder if other organization pay these beat writer to put a negative spin on a great show so it doesn't take away from another series?

I'm hoping of this continues we have multiple seasons. Really looking forward to. Scifi series to take the place of the gap left by the Expanse.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022)

Thanks for ruining daredevil

So much opportunity for daredevil and you ruin what made the Netflix series amazing.

Stop messing with great stories for fluff crap.

This show is awful, not sure if there is a show that angers me more than this crap. And that is saying something.

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (2022)

Good story, expected more from the animation

[7/10 · 16 October 2022]

Having played the game I liked the story and how they included it's location and characters. Thought the animation could have been better.

I don't think every animated series needs to equal the quality of arcane, however the animation in the game play is better than the animated series.

Felt like 2077 game was meant to set the next level gaming. If they produced the animation for this series, they they half'r'ed it

Also thought the ending felt rushed. The season up until the last episode had a good plot. Ended as if it needed a few more episodes to get to the point it reached to end the season.

The Terminal List (2022– )

So much better than expected

[9/10 · 8 September 2022]

Had this on my list to watch but didn't have high expectations. Pleasantly surprised for the 1st episodes. Hope it continues Who knew Chris Pratt could tackle a serious role. I think they do the navy seals justice with realistic scenes. No idea if there is a season 2 but hope so.

Not sure why I need 600 characters to write a review of a show I like that I don't want to put in spoilers but oh well. Just keep on typing. Hopefully more people tune in to watch it. Have to look up and see if it's been green lit for another season.

Resident Evil (2022)

This is awful

[1/10 · 19 July 2022]

How the heck did Netflix green light this show. It is absolutely terrible. It's like a b rated show , not the one that is a cult classsic but the one you wonder where the money went. Just avoid it.

Westworld (2016–2022)

Season 4 premiere sucks

[1/10 · 27 June 2022]

Wow...is this written by jar jar Abrams? Probably the worst episode I've had to sit through for west world. Thanks for the 1st 3 season and cashing out for the 4th

Bah bye !

We Own This City (2022)

1st episode put me to sleep

[4/10 · 25 June 2022]

Started off ok, but is so slow. Started at 7pm and fell asleep. Such a slow melodic pace , if u like that cudos. Ended with a clif hanger but I thought it was boring. I like Jon's character but don't think it's enough.

Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022)

2 episodes, 2 awful child chase scenes

[3/10 · 1 June 2022]

Can't tell who's more annoying Leia or the third sister who just seems annoying bad at acting. 5 stars outlet for Ewan as Kenobi. Such high hopes for this show. Hopefully it gets better but, not getting my hopes up.

All the high rating ms boggle my mind.

Please just drop Reva out an airlock.

Moon Knight (2022)

Favorite new integration so far

[9/10 · 10 April 2022]

Reminds me, all be it on a grander scale of daredevil. Taking the opportunity to develop a story and character both from the present perspective as well as slowly bringing in back story. CGI has been on point up to this point. Looking forward to the rest of the season.

Don't Look Up (2021)

Waste of time

[3/10 · 28 December 2021]

I feel like whenever there is an all star A-list move it will be awful. This is no exception. Don't waste your time unless you locked wag the dog. Kind of along the same absurdity.

The Matrix Resurrections (I) (2021)

Zero reason to make this movie

[3/10 · 24 December 2021]

Thankfully I have HBO and didn't have to pay ticket price to watch a movie about how much neo loved trinity and how great she really is. Who green lights this crap. I'm all for a female forward movie. But for the love, make the story interesting. What's next...diehard remake movie re-cast with female lead?

Hawkeye (2021)

Lost me at the last episode

[7/10 · 23 December 2021]

Did someone new direct or write the last episode. There's this big reveal, and then basically goes to comic relief. There's a big build up then Disney steps in and goes rates G for the last episodes.

The Wheel of Time (2021– )

Ok at best

[3/10 · 27 November 2021]

Disappointing they have very little regard for the source material. Someone is lining their pockets if Amazon is claiming it cost 10mil and episode. Egwene feels miscast. Costumes feel off. Just doesn't seem like a very tight production.

Succession (2018–2023)

Tough show to watch

[6/10 · 17 November 2021]

There's really nobody with any redeemable feature on the show. Either someone is a jerk or their a moron. I guess the only one who is redeemable is the grandfather, but he's on for maybe a minute every other episode.

Arcane (2021– )

I don't say this lightley

[9/10 · 14 November 2021]

This truly surpasses expectations. Came into this with no prior knowledge and I'm honestly taken back on how well this is written as well as the time they've take to develop character relationships. Animation and story are top notch. Hats off.

Red Notice (2021)

Obvious studio forced and gun point movie

[2/10 · 14 November 2021]

This is one of those studio contract movies where the actors have no choice but to do this movie. Story is awful, all the location sets are green screen. The story is and dialogue is just plain awful. Don't worry I forgive you, thankfully the movie was free on Netflix.

Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms (2021)

It's a hot mess

[4/10 · 23 October 2021]

Negative reviews are not wrong. Story is disjointed and the animation is disappointing at best. Probably would have been better as a mini series. There are multiple story lines but now are done well.

Batman: The Long Halloween, Part Two (2021)

Part 1 interesting. Part 2 just awful

[3/10 · 6 September 2021]

Part 1 I found very interesting, thought this could be good. However Part 2 just vomits characters so they are on screen. Basically just nonsense throwing Batman adversaries for the sake of it.

Masters of the Universe: Revelation (2021)

A lot of over reaction

[6/10 · 27 July 2021]

It's got some issues but I think it could setup an interesting second season. Probably could have devolved the plot over a few episodes rather than just throw everything into the the 1st.

Raya and the Last Dragon (2021)

Here's the sich

[1/10 · 30 June 2021]

Nicalodion now has control of Disney. Let's have modern teen lingo with Disney movies now. Like is soooo cool that the dialogue doesn't match the artistic scene of the movie.

Woke (2020–2022)

Funny show

[8/10 · 25 June 2021]

Funny show, well written. The negative reviews need to wake up and enjoy a show that addresses serious issues in a comedic form.
