No Time to Die (2021)
No Need To Bet on Who The Next Bond will be...Bond is Dead!
Jason Bourne wasn't killed off after the last movie...Jack Bauer was still alive after nearly 200 episodes of 24, but now after nearly 80 years someone has made the idiotic decision to kill off James Bond!!!! Surely there can not be another Bond movie with Bond dead....unless they are going to kill Bond off completely by having a female portray the next Bond which I for one would refuse to watch!!! RIP Commander Bond!! I was going to give this 2 stars but then remembered the lack of Bond theme music throughout the exciting action packed parts of the movie which featured often in the past movies!
SEAL Team: Siege Protocol: Part 2 (2020)
Action Packed
Great double episode....Blackburn is a badass! Great to see him in the thick of the action! Mandy knows how to kick ass too!
Madam Secretary (2014)
One Season Too Many....
A series I enjoyed right from the start, good storylines, great cast, however the show should have ended after the 5th season with MSec announcing her bid for the Presidency. The last season seemed laboured and missed characters that had been ever present throughout as well as not so subtlety touching on real politics and current affairs. Last thing I want to mention is how fantastic Zeljko Ivanek (aka Russell Jackson) was throughout the tenure of the show.
Jack Ryan: Blue Gold (2019)
Big Improvement Needed
First season was fantastic...second season somewhat poor so far! Feeling too much like Harrison Fords Clear and Present Danger...eg friend of Ryan's killed in car ambush, US Special Forces troops bring tracked in the jungle...nothing major happening!
Serenity (2019)
The one that got away....
Trailer advertised this movie as a mystery thriller...which it was for the first hour and was enjoyable but then ended up as a cross between the Matrix and the Sixth Sense! Matthew Mcconaughey is brilliant, Anne Hathaway a little creepy looking and Diane Lane looks amazing!
Arrow (2012)
Has become completely ridiculous and tedious...
First two seasons were fantastic, good storyline, great action sequences. However unfortunately this show decided to cross over with the Flash and other shows which contain mutants, aliens and supernatural powers! By season 5/6 we had dead characters appearing back as their evil alien twin! By season 7 the show has become repetitive and completely stupid....for example, the city's most dangerous criminal, who is finally captured, arrives at prison, with only ONE guard, who then proceeds to shoot dead two prision guards outside the main gate to the prision without so much as an alarm sounding and then walks in to the prison as a visitor!!! I would have given the first two seasons of this show 8/9 stars...however from then on 2/3 stars!
The Last Ship: Commitment (2018)
Sad...but sudden!
One of my favourite shows has come to an end....sad that the Nathan James ends up at the bottom of the sea and I believe the end was so sudden. It should have ended with everyone being reunited as opposed to Admiral Chandlers head breaking the surface! It was great bringing back a lot of the characters that did not survive all of the adventures in Chandlers vision however it's a pity although her character appeared, that Rhona Mitra couldn't have as she started the whole adventure! Sorry to see the show go but think it had run it's course!
