Anatomy of a Scandal (2022)
Well paced and enjoyable.
The story was fine. The pacing and editing of the episodes was excellent however, we watched it in one sitting and it flew by.
Worth the watch but I wouldn't watch it a second time.
Shockingly, the shenanigans of the fantasy Government in this series doesn't even compare the the level of high jinx our actual Tory Government are up to right now, it makes the series seem rather tame.
Doctor Who: The Rings of Akhaten (2013)
Possibly the worst episode to date
This episode was very weak. I liked the introduction of the exotic planet for Clara and how it was all portrayed and the angry speech the Doctor Gives towards the end is very encouraging.
...I feel bad for Matt Smith. I think he is an excellent Doctor, however the writing and script he has to work with is poor. The recent episodes feel super pre-water shed. Other than the speech I mentioned earlier we have witnessed no dark or angry, almost crazy scenes with the Doctor. Just a goofy and foolish script with too many awkward "banter" scenes where the characters are trying to be funny (Prime example this episode is the whole barking scene with that dog type alien).
- Remember David Tenants first episode when he sword fights on that ship, he is SUPER MAD, super powerful and so driven... I LOVE it. - Remember the banter between David Tennant and Katherine Tate... that wasn't awkward or totally cringe.
...Also, why did they buy the scooter with the ring rather than using the Tardis to catch the young Queen of Years?
Killing Them Softly (2012)
Disappointing
I saw the film advertised quite a while back whilst it was in the cinema. I'll be honest, I didn't know much about it before I saw the film but I thought it looked fairly good and I'm a big Brad Pitt fan.
Sadly, Killing Them Softly is an extremely mediocre film.
The cast is very good, The acting is sound, The story line is just very... mediocre, The killing/gun fight scenes are very... mediocre.
The over-long, drawn out dialogue scenes just didn't do it for me. They work in Tarantino films but they don't here.
5/10.
- A very mediocre review.
Saw 3D (2010)
Best certainly saved for last (Quick Review)
Pros:
A good storyline with plenty of twists.
Some of the most creative traps to date.
I really liked the scenes outside rather than always being set in the dark dingy rooms (excluding flashbacks) like in the other movies.
Good ending.
Cons:
Some of the acting was a little off, Chad Donella (Who played Gibson) did not do a very good job, I sometimes could not tell if he was trying to be sarcastic or if it was just bad acting before including no... he is just a dodgy actor. The scene during the television interview also displayed some terrible acting from the characters behind the camera crew as well as the woman interviewing 'Bobby'.
The 3D was disappointing.
At times there seemed to be too much going on at once with too many cuts to different locations
