Reacher (2022– )

where is Roscoe?

[19 January 2024]

I am subscribed to only 2 streaming platforms, Apple TV+ and Amazon Prime Video. They are undoubtedly the best. I was very excited to wade through Reacher, and I was rewarded, sort of. The first season, although very simple, is truly beautiful. One of the best of its kind. The story is intriguing, the character of Reacher is mysterious from beginning to end. He has his own charm. In the first season, every character is written very well. And I literally loved the relationship between Reacher and the policewoman Roscoe. I wanted to see more of them. Now I wonder how is it possible that with the second season they ruined everything? The second season is less beautiful, much less beautiful. Is the magic that distinguished this series from the others missing? Where's Roscoe? Finlay? The latter has a cameo in season 2, and when he came out in episode 4 I was really happy. Please bring Roscoe and Finlay back. Roscoe is only mentioned in this second season, and I cried when it happened. I repeat, once again, bring Roscoe and Finlay back. Season 1: 8.5/10 - Season 2: 6.5/10. We want roscoe and finlay in season 3!

Unaccompanied Minors (2006)

I'm crying

[31 December 2023]

I'm 21 now. When I was younger, about 10 years ago, they showed this film on my parents' old cathode ray tube TV. I was little and I had fallen in love with "woman", and I really liked the bond that these guys created in that night spent together perhaps with the awareness that after that night they would never see each other again. It may seem like a very light film, but I see a philosophy and great depth in it. Only today I discovered the title of this film, and I watched it again immediately! Technically it is not a masterpiece, certainly, but it will always remain in my heart. See it with your children, I'm sure it will be a great time to spend together.

The Family Plan (2023)

The Family Plan!

[16 December 2023]

After watching "The World Behind You" on that rubbish Netflix (I immediately and finally canceled my subscription) I needed something high quality to recover and be happy again. Obviously when I look for quality films and TV series, I know well that I have to go to Apple TV+. I found this The family plan to be a really good film! Great for spending a carefree evening, having a few laughs and watching what a great action scene! In short, a comedy that cost 80 million dollars! Thanks Apple TV+! I forgot, the whole cast was exceptional, and the music chosen is beautiful! I saw the film on a 77 inch Oled with surround sound system!

The Buccaneers (2023– )

Wow Wow and wow!

[9 November 2023]

I want to start this review by complimenting, once again, Apple TV+. The quality of your shows is exceptional, I want to mention Foundation, Severance, Black Bird, Napoleon, Killer Of The flower moon and many many others. The buccaneers is much better than bridgerton, I know this is obvious to many, given that every Apple TV+ product is superior to any Netflix product. This series is fantastic, I love the cast, Alisha boe is very good and also froshet. Congratulations, congratulations and congratulations!

I can't wait to see the second season! Do yourself a favor and watch this series! Thanks for your attention and enjoy your viewing.

One Of Us Is Lying (2021–2022)

A disaster

[9 March 2022]

Classic Netflix series for teenagers made on a very low budget. Simultaneously with this series I watched The AfterParty on Apple TV +. Two completely different worlds, Afterparty is beautiful while this series is a real disaster in every respect. I don't expect the same quality of Apple TV Plus products, since Apple can afford a theoretically unlimited budget, but at least a minimum of commitment I do. Horrible!

Suspicion (2022)

Suspicion

[4 February 2022]

I've seen the first two episodes, and I have to say it's a really interesting series. I can't wait to watch the next episodes! I'm really in love with the way the tension builds and we're starting to wonder who might be the culprit! Look at it because it deserves!

The Afterparty (2022–2023)

i love this series!

[29 January 2022]

I've already seen the first 3 episodes, and I'm really enjoying it! A mysterious story told through different points of view. It is really nice to watch, it allows you to take your head off from work or bad thoughts and relax! I recommend it to everyone;)

Swan Song (I) (2021)

I love this film!

[23 January 2022]

Really a beautiful movie! One of the things that struck me most was the photography / script, really a poem. I also really appreciated the choice of using two completely different optics to tell the present and the memories of the past. The soundtrack puts the chills. The entire cast is really good! In my opinion this film could win an Oscar. Let's hope MacBeth doesn't steal his prize. Apple TV + is really doing the best content, I was tired of that Nteflix / Amazon crap.

The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021)

WOW

[14 January 2022]

Thank God for getting me to subscribe to Apple TV +, every single piece of content is cinematic quality! This film is not for everyone, but it is really really well done, the shots, the direction, the scenography! Congratulations to all the people who worked on it!

Don't Look Up (2021)

Cancel Netflix, switch to Apple TV +

[27 December 2021]

I understood the message this film wanted to send, I think it is very profound and we should think about it. However I think this is one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life. The actors were good, but really don't waste your time with this movie.

Directing is definitely the thing that upset me most, the worst ever. I am no longer a Netflix subscriber, in fact I switched to Apple TV +.

I can't wait to see Martin Scorsese's new film with Leonardo di caprio and robert de niro which has a budget of 200 million dollars (more than double what Netflix has put in for this ugly movie), The killer of the flower moon will arrive in 2022 on Apple TV +.

Invasion: First Day (2021) Season 1, Episode 10

The best show

[10 December 2021]

Invasion has become my favorite TV series. Apple TV + is the best streaming service, quality >>>> quantity! I loved products like Foundation ($ 450 million budget) and Invasion ($ 200 million budget) big Apple continues like this and I'm looking forward to celebrating its 3 trillion capitalization with my family! Focusing on the series I think it is the most realistic ever made so far, the chaos that would be created in our society, everything is out of control. We know almost nothing about them, we can hardly communicate! For those who say that "they had to investigate the aliens better" should know that the project is 3 seasons, the aliens (said by the same producer) will be deepened in the next season. Given the various comments, moreover, surely the second season will have a faster pace, the fact remains that this series is really really beautiful. Thanks Apple! Congratulations to the whole crew and cast.

Invasion: Full of Stars (2021) Season 1, Episode 9

INCREDIBLE!

[3 December 2021]

This is not an action series. I think it is the most realistic series I have ever made on this theme. It is incredible to see the chaos that would be created in our society, everything would be out of control. As the producer himself said, this season could be called "the arrival", while in a hypothetical second and third season they will focus more on the aliens. Did you want the usual storyline where aliens come in, put a virus on their computer and win? That's why I argue that this series is really realistic, the aliens have arrived but we still don't know anything, we can't make contact, we don't know why; this is real drama, and this is how if we were invaded by an alien race with bad intentions it would turn out. I hope the renewal for a second season from Apple arrives as soon as possible, and I invite you to re-evaluate the series and try to identify with the characters. For heaven's sake, tastes are tastes, but there is no reason to evaluate 1 star out of 10 this series! You may not like it but voting 1 out of 10 means spitting in the face of the work these guys have done!

The Wheel of Time (2021– )

NO.

[29 November 2021]

We did not, absolutely rejected. I couldn't get past the second episode. Behold Foundation, another world! Much more engaging, more spectacular and simply much more beautiful. Amazon continues to make substandard products.

Foundation: The Leap (2021) Season 1, Episode 10

WOW.

[19 November 2021]

This is the best show in the world. I can't wait for season two. 450 million dollars well spent, the show is beautiful, in a few years, when a viewer finds himself seeing it all in one breath 4-5 entire seasons will be catapulted into a new world. The world of Foundation. Thanks Apple.

Foundation (2021– )

Is incredible!

[9 November 2021]

A budget of $ 450 million, only the largest and richest company in the world can afford such a thing. This show is the new Game Of Thrones, but set in space! Spectacular visuals, and great actors! Gaal Dornick is beautiful!

Invasion (2021–2024)

WHEN SEASON 2???

[25 October 2021]

I love this show! The story is slow, but it all seems so real! Apple TV plus is the best streaming service, quality> quantity! Forget the negative reviews (also because we are only in the third episode!) watch and create your own opinion!
