The Blacklist: Dr. Bogdan Krilov (No. 29) (2017)
Betrayal of all that made the Blacklist believable
How could a master criminal strategist allow any one person know where the bodies are buried (literally), have the access codes for all his money, and know the details of every strategy? Mr. Kaplan may have known the body she "disappeared" was Hans, the son of Werner von Hauser, but how would she have known how Reddington instigated the events that led to his death? This whole story arc runs counter to the idea of a master manipulator running a sophisticated criminal empire.
The Good Doctor: Apple (2017)
Unrealistic Scenario
This is a good series with some great episodes, but this one presented a completely unrealistic scenario where a casual acquaintance of a patient is allowed to be in her room during treatment and to be involved in decisions about her care. This would *never* happen. Hospitals have always been strict in who is allowed to be with a patient during treatment, and now with HIPAA regulations such actions are unlawful. The writers took a shortcut to create dramatic conflict rather than showing the creativity required to structure a screenplay that holds together. Watching an episode with such a glaring flaw is hard to do.
Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999)
Where's Harrison Ford?
The effects are spectacular, the costumes and makeup fabulous, and the computer work is better than anything I've seen, but the characters could have been cut from cardboard. It needs some three-dimensional characters like Hans Solo in the other episodes. It would be good, too, if there was a little suspense. From the very first, every thing that happened was far too easy to predict.
