007: Road to a Million (2023)
Worth a watch
I was skeptical but made it through the first episode and now onto the second. So far so good. I'm liking it better than the Amazing Race. It's a bit more serious and even dangerous. Brian Cox does an excellent job with his Borne Supremacy persona and lije a Bond villain watches the mystery unfold in a dark room full of monitors. I'll keep watching it the hope that it will get even better. The challenges definitely remind you of what Bond might have to deal with and the music adds to the suspense while the tension of the participants provides a few moments of levity. They must also have sone knowledge of history.
Vanished (2016)
Very good!
Stumbled on this by accident. I thought it was going to be another low budget poorly done attemp at the Left Behind series. The acting was excellent, the story was great, the production quality very good. A more realistic depiction than the adult series. I only hope it continues. I read the Left Behind series but this makes me want to read the young adult series that this is based on. If thw quality can be reproduced it would make a great tv miniseries. I think that might be more successful than a movie. The four main characters are attractive and likeable. I hope they are in any sequels......
Burn Notice: Sea Change (2013)
Stupid
It's dumb that they would burn the mom's house and everything in it to "create a distraction". Give me a break. Just like that, barely hesitating, not even collecting a few things. Not grabbing important papers, clothes. It was not that urgent. Poor writing. It's also stupid that there is a minimum number of characters before this is an acceptable review. It forcesyou to ramble, this explains why the shows writers make such poo decisions about the plot and the script. Now I have to keen doing this just to fill up space. Utterly ridiculous. Why are we forced to say mire than necessary. I don't get it.
49th Parallel (1941)
Massey and Howard
I think it's odd that Ray Massey and Leslie Howard have top billing when their parts are so small and not until the last part of the film. Their parts seem almost added as an afterthought just to have a couple of big names in the cast.
Clara (2018)
Profoundly moving
I read relatively negatively reviews but watched anyway. I found myself deeply moved especially at the end. Others might disagree as all art is subject to the observers interpretation but I strongly believe that we and our universe is no accident. We are made by a creator with a plan. In what appears as chaos there is order and design.
