The Purge
(2018–2019)
Such a disappointment
29 March 2020
Really enjoyed the movies so I had high hopes for the series but Jesus was I disappointed. I've don't know how they managed to fill so much time with so much non-content.
Bad acting, awful back stories and series lacking plot lines. I'm torn as to whether or not I should watch season two as the reviews suggest it gets better.

Armstrong
(2017)
Amateur theatre at best.

I'm not quite sure how the other reviewers got to the scores they did on this movie. I managed about 15 minutes before the acting became so painfully bad that I had to turn the movie off.
On paper it has a really interesting and potentially great story line and I get it's budget however that doesn't mean to say it has to be low quality.
The first thing I take issue with is the rookie EMT. Would somebody with as nervous disposition as hers really be allowed out on the streets to care for the public. I get that she is a recovering drug user but surely she would need to be somewhat more recovered to take on this job? She was like a rabbit caught in the headlights mumbling along repeating orders and acting like she never had any training.
The angry veteran was just as bad. I can see this kind of character fitting in with a rookie cop veteran cop scenario. Why is the guy so angry and why does he take it out on the new girl?
Now we come to the superhero. This guys acting was pretty rigid and he lacked charisma in epic proportions. Now I'm sure if I gave this film a chance it may prove to be something semi worthwhile however if it fails to grab me in the first 20 minutes then I don't see why I should waste my time. With a bigger budget and better acting this movie could be really good, it just takes itself way to seriously.
