Orphan Black (2013)
Mildly entertaining but the woke references are off-putting
Watched all seasons and kudos to Tatiana for her acting and sheer work she must have had to do. The main issue is that the story line is just not very interesting. The sisters (clones) throughout all seasons try to protect themselves from the nasty corporations when the answer is quite simple, "just go public ".
I was a bit perplexed by the over referencing to Gays lesbians, transgender clone. Practically all males are either what's classified now as toxic or are simply in a Beta role with every female playing an alpha role. Its feels far too forced, trying to ram yet another political message down your throat when your just trying to watch a TV show. The dig at republicans was just pathetic.
I joked that it seems like a BBC production but given its in USA though nothing more of it. A year after seeing the show I only realised its BBC America! Go Figure
I'm wasn't overly bothered by it but it shows the lack of integrity by the production team and writers.
American Siege (2021)
Rated 1 but probably 2.5
(Look at the breakdown, 56% of all reviews gave it 10 / 10 )
Whole movie took 8 days and Bruce Willis did all his scenes in 1 day. It shows . Movie smacks of "no one cares" about it, wants to do the bare minimum and go home.
Its a shame these old actors don't go out with some sense of dignity.
