Better Call Saul (2015–2022)

BCS beating BB? BS!

[7/10 · 26 July 2022]

Watching BB I thougt this is on par with Twin Peaks. First 2 seasons, forget it, slowly moving, I can handle that. Seasons 3 to 5 brilliant, but now were into 6 second half, I cannot endorse all these 9 and 10 ratings, slightly boring for me, perhaps only for me, I wish you all nines and tens to salutes these series to the end.

Johnny Hallyday: Beyond Rock (2022– )

Rockstar or?

[8/10 · 6 April 2022]

Very interesting story about one of France rockstars. Did not know about his not so happy years. Probably this is what life is about for lots of what we think of as rockstars.

West Side Story (2021)

Just as impressed as 60 years ago

[8/10 · 31 March 2022]

Saw this movie when I was 9 years old. Now 60 years later, on tv, still very impressed. So good to see Rita Moreno again too. Perhaps even better on the big screen.

The Saint: The Angel's Eye (1966) Season 5, Episode 7

Hilarious

[7/10 · 24 February 2022]

Story is good, but nothing shot in Amsterdam. Just watched it in 2022, after watching it 51 years ago. Images of city centre correct, everything else is studio.

The White Lotus (2021–2025)

That's an eight, eight and a half for music and colour

[8/10 · 29 December 2021]

Like a dream, but very real, unfortunately. Could not tell till 5 minutes before ending who would be in the coffin. Another season please. Never visiting Hawai for sure.

The Beatles: Get Back (2021)

Need director's cut (17hr)

[10/10 · 8 December 2021]

Best music documentary ever. Don't like the album that much, but now I have some insight into the making of it, I am left astounded. Will watch this again, incredible. Thank you Peter Jackson.

Schumacher (2021)

More emotional than expected

[9/10 · 15 September 2021]

Does not give you much hope about the current state and prospect of Michael, unfortunately.

1971: The Year That Music Changed Everything: End of the Acid Dream (2021) Season 1, Episode 2

A must see for music fans

[9/10 · 8 June 2021]

Cant think of any reason why there is no review of any episode of this magnificent series. I'll just say, if you like music, watch the whole series.

Master of None: Moments in Love, Chapter 1 (2021) Season 3, Episode 1

How to spoil a great first two seasons

[1/10 · 26 May 2021]

Really looking forward, but very dissappointing. How is this possible. No words for this.

Red Light (I) (2020–2021)

Too real for me

[5/10 · 1 March 2021]

Saw 2 episodes. It is a well made tv series, good writing and acting. Too depressing for me, I think this might very well be all true. If you like to watch the dark side of prostitution in Amsterdam and Antwerp, give it a try.

The Mandalorian: Chapter 11: The Heiress (2020) Season 2, Episode 3

Not getting any better

[5/10 · 18 November 2020]

Agent Peña meets Bosch and Gustavo Fring. That is the interesting part in this short episode. Still not as good as season 1.

Undercover: Victor (2020) Season 2, Episode 6

Now definitely a Flemish series, nothing Dutch anymore

[5/10 · 20 October 2020]

Was expecting same actors as in first series. Nice Dutch characters played by good actors. They are hardly to be seen in this second season, so a big disappointment. Still a good Flemish series I guess

ZeroZeroZero (2019–2020)

Blend Gomorrah and Narcos

[5/10 · 16 July 2020]

Take all seasons of Gomorrah, Narcos (including Mexico), mix it and pour. Tastes less.

Space Force: The Launch (2020) Season 1, Episode 1

Fun may come later

[5/10 · 29 May 2020]

I'll try one more episode. Cast should be able to deliver much more

The Bucket List (2007)

This cast, this result

[4/10 · 28 May 2020]

This cast and director should have come up with something much better

Ares: Episode #1.1 (2020) Season 1, Episode 1

Not bad if only...

[5/10 · 17 January 2020]

Good quality filming and story. Very hard to listen to the original soundtrack, like most Dutch tv films. Have to watch the English subs to understand What is going on. So next time spend some budget on sound.

Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood (2019)

Instead of a 10,9,8 or 1,2,3,4 I'll give this an insulting 7 QT!

[7/10 · 20 August 2019]

Thoroughly enjoyable though, just about a half hour too long. A few unforgettable scenes here, also insanely funny ones, just a bit too much of the old Hollywood movie industry for non insiders. I challenge you QT to make your last movie a 10

Money Heist (2017–2021)

Never should have had a 3rd season

[5/10 · 2 August 2019]

Enjoyed the first 2 seasons. Rated it 8. This 3rd should never have been made. Mistakes can be made, even by Netflix. Financially though I think they win big time.

Money Heist (2017–2021)

Should have stoppen after 2nd season

[5/10 · 23 July 2019]

Great Spanish series. Unfortunately a streaming service ordered a 3rd and 4th season. Watchable because big budget makes it possible.

Dark: Anfänge und Enden (2019) Season 2, Episode 1

Not a clue

[7/10 · 27 June 2019]

First season was great. Just saw 1st episode season 2. Is it me, or do I have to watch the 1st season once more to get a clue what this is about. Or just wait and see what happens next episodes? Finished the season, now looking forward to the next!

Dunkirk (2017)

Ears ringing for 6 months

[8/10 · 19 June 2019]

Loved the movie, as I love all Nolan's movies . Only problem was the loudness of this film, not every now and then, but continuous. Visited ear doctor ( could also be added up music noise for 50 years). Will not visit next movies without ear protection.

Morgen gebeurt het (1957–1959)

Scary stuff

[8/10 · 18 June 2019]

Watching this when you are 6 years of age, makes you do not want go to sleep at night . Very well made in the fifties, watching it on the only tv set in the neighborhood.

Undercover (2019–2022)

Not a fan of main character

[5/10 · 14 June 2019]

Cause hè is in commercials of a supermarkt i do not like. Didnt know hè is such a good actor. Difficult at times to understand several dialects, you will need subs. Great acting overall. One of the best Dutch/Flemish tv series I have seen

Dunkirk (2017)

Ears ringing for a year

[8/10 · 14 June 2019]

Great flic. Only problem the volume of the soundtrack. Imax theater claim the cant play softer. Went to doctor of ear multiple times. Could be 50 plus years of too loud music ofcourse but this film did the last bit. After 2 years its ok

Rolling Thunder Revue (2019)

Not a fan

[9/10 · 13 June 2019]

Not a Dylan fan, but.like lots of his songs covered by various artists. This film is brilliant. It makes me see what a great artist Dylan is. Good job by Scorsese
