The Bling Ring (2022)
The Terrible stealing from Awful
Vapid, spoiled wannabes from LA Stealing from Ultra rich celebrities mansions and end up selling each other out to not go to prison. There is not one person to feel sorry for in the story except for the viewer. Doc should've been 2 parts max. Only saving Grace was the 2 reality producers literally laughing at everyone while everything is falling apart. Had a solid message in the end, but it doesn't seem these people learned a thing and are still obviously very proud of their endeavors. But it's also hilarious to think these millionaires were in some way effected by a few stolen handbags and Rolex's.
Sword and Scale (2014)
Possibly the best true crime podcast if not for...
I've been listening to this true crime podcast for years. In fact it's become virtually the only true crime podcast I even listen to these days. It had always been. Solid 10 for me. Until the last few years. Unfortunately the host has decided to continually bring his personal drama into the shows narrative. It never used to bother me when it was slight comments. But now he's going into full blown tirades about his personal feelings and tries to work it into the storyline of the show. Just tell the story. It's great otherwise. Perfect actually. 9/10.

The Last Cruise (2021)
Unfinished
Started great. Loved that they used so much can footage taken by crew and passengers. But it just abruptly ends. I thought it was just the first episode as well which would've made sense. But that doesn't seem to be the case. We only got a few perspectives and there is so much more to this story. I don't understand why this was released when it could've been excellent. Good idea though. I'm sure more will come out soon.
Baby God (2020)
Swing and a miss
There is a fascinating tale of trust betrayal abuse and rape in this dark story somewhere. Too bad the director didn't wanna talk about it. What could have been...
