Bodies (2023)
Story for the brightest ignorants
I was attracted at first to the show but sometimes all that cops can do is to be stupid.. Sometimes a cop is just a human and humans have faults in the system. Rich guys will always piss on people. But why this is happening at the absolute worst moment, now this is the thing that makes this show so bad, great expectations being ruined. The acting is average, image and lighting not very inspired , story is mostly good but some mistakes are unbelievable. The last episodes were unwatchable for me but... destiny seems to be always a winner.
Human behaviour is a miss on this show, I bet that the creators have never been parents. Why? Who gets it, will be enlightened.
The Expanse (2015)
Gem to garbage
The show was very intelligent cancel the first time, when good plot has ended. Everything after season 3 maybe is just a pile of garbage. This time (unlike Witcher) the writer is to blame for this, filling books with tons of crap after initially had a great idea. Art looses for money.
The series are instead very vell put together (beside crappy story), acting is mostly good, environment and CGI decent, music great. Battle scenes a bit childish.
Season 4 is watchable if you clean your house while watching but season 5 is the bottom of garbage bin. Suddenly another solo villain appears and overrules everybody, Andersen and Grimm brothrts are more belivable. If you are an kindergarten child you may like it (but still crap).
Ahsoka (2023)
Yet another kindergarten story
After this beginning it seems obvious that the Republic stands no chance against the Empire, with rogue commanders that can't obey orders, this seems more Barbie than Star wars...
The protagonists are either young or very old, no adult in place.
Boring scenes, long wasted time when nothing happens, the cartoons are way better.
Another garbage, like Andor and the first two seasons of Mandalorian, that have nothing to do with Star wars universe and logic. Bobba Fett is actually waaaay better.
And more booooring scenes and dialogue, skip, skip, skip, fast forward... seems like a psychologist session, even the robots are boring and inactive, please watch original Star Wars movies.
El silencio (2023)
Garbage
For me, the psychologist seemed more sick than the animal boy. Maybe just the director is more sick than both. The rest of the cast is just npc, beside the rain everything goes downhill in this catastrophic series. Wasted time from beginning to end. I dont know what I should write here in order for you to have a clear idea on this show, because the only word that comes to my mind is madness. And the second word is violence. And maybe the third is stupidity. Tons of stupidity. Endless stupidity no matter which character you choose, they are all dumb. If you love this kind of things, this show is for you.
House of the Dragon (2022)
Psychopath's heaven
Targeting the same people that finds no excitement whatsoever in real life but are not currently treated or confined in an appropriate clinic, the series also has a childish story that not fits at all the previous statements. To be clear, I am not blaming the producers and/or viewers but I definitely don't want to interact with neither.
On the good side of things, there is some good acting and costumes but the fighting scenes are always filmed so you cannot see a thing (so... bad).
If you are a fan of blood and gore (without any common sense sometimes) then this is a show for you.
For me is just a waste of time.
El Cid (2020)
Wasted potential
It seems that low skilled writers always target stupid people in order to rise their audience. The characters of this show are either good and extremely stupid, or maleficent and evil.
The good:
The costumes are great, props and ambient are well built. The hair styling corresponds to the Era.
Acting is good, with some praising to Alicia Sanz, José Luis García and Lucia Guerrero. Unfortunately the main character seems always angry, with false forced face constriction.
I was interested in seeing this series but after a few episodes I wanted to fast-forward several scenes because of very predictable (and boring) stuff.
Emily in Paris (2020)
Good, Great, Garbage
I was really excited after the first episodes because the main character was always positive, no matter how bad the problems were. The writers described with a lot of inspiration the fact thar when two different cultures collide, interesting things happen.
The most important thing in a series is that all the characters are well defined and have a personality of their own. The good writing and acting improved on the second season, and it was delightful to watch.
Now, everything falls apart in the third season, where things begin to make no sense at all, it seems that another person from a different world is writing the show (I don't know is this is true and don't care) but definitely my joy of watching the show has ended.
So 3G on this:
Season 1 good
Season 2 great
Season 3 garbage.
Andor (2022)
Not SW at all
Lately more and more shows want to steel some of the fans and shine of the original Star Wars saga. This trend is visibly targeting old movies or games, being less and less realted to their original stories. Originally, the Star Wars spin-offs were really good, telling stories realted with the original. Nowadays, there is more and more trash to be found in this money-hunting productions. After the childish aberation called Mandalorian (for everyone that watched the movies and played the Kotor games) I saw some good action in the first episodes of Boba Fett (best in the series, so far), before everything went to garbage in the end. They were impressive in matters of (some) acting, cgi, surrounding world creation, the stories being mostly garbage. That changes in Andor, where there is nothing related to Star Wars (I only totmented myself with the first 3 epidodes). Acting also became average, cgi absent, outfits hilarious and the story could be writtten in kindergarten. The cartoons are way better...
The One (2021)
Ending failure
I really appreciated the show, even if some twists were predictable (the corrupted cop, Ben being alive when pushed into the river, brother-sister related match). The acting is really great, Hannah being one with her character (I hope this was acting and she is nicer in real life :D), she deserves all the credits for being the main star of the show. The supporting actors were also good, the relationship between Hannah and Mark (Lois and Eric) was great developed in all the details.
But the main reason this show failed to get a higher score is because there are little details that ruin everything, falling beyong the rules of common sense (they may come from the book). I will expose just 2 of them: 1. When David tries to kill Rebecca he runs after just one stabbing, not even checking the result. The actual stabbing killers are passionate and they stab multiple times (watch some documentaries abou it before wtiting nonsense). 2. The audio recording should have been recoverable from the phone which, btw, conveniently falled from his pocket.
And also, everything went well from Rebecca's side and others failed in controlling her.
And the last phrase of the show... dear writer, I want you to...
Black Mirror (2011)
From brilliant to garbage
Maybe most of the episodes are good or very good but there are some sick stories about humans garbage that are shown as examples that lower the overall rating. 2 stars seem overrated from this point of view. If you take a barrel of piss and put in it a glass of wine you get a barrel of piss. If you got a barrel of wine and put in it a glass of piss you get a barrel of piss.
Any show that promotes the humiliation and usage of human beings should be banned in a civilized world. Those who like this kind of things are definitely on the wrong planet.
Sick people belong in hospitals, not running shows and writing scripts.
The Last Duel (2021)
Love is not enough
The best point of the movie resides from the fact that it presents fairly accurate the society from the 1300s with the goods and (mostly) the bads, even if only the nobility life is portayed.
The acting is good, there are many details which can be seen only in one point of view, from the three presented.
The only extremely bad thing is the story (dont care if based on true events, but I doubt they are accurate, based on the laws from that period of time). In my opinion constant rape between husband and wife is far more unacceptable and toxic than a one time forced sex driven by love (not acceptable either, she did ask him to stop several times). Both men should have been punished (although she did get her prize finally, raising her child).
The 3 stars rating reflects the intention of the producers/creators to shock the audience as the main purpose of the movie wich is really lame.
Ant Anstead Master Mechanic (2019)
Thank you for leaving Wheeler Dealers
About this show... I guess every mechanic with this budget and resources could build this (kind of ) car. But this show is merely about the car and mostly about the (full of himself) master mechanic. Thank God he left Wheeler Dealers so I can enjoy Elvis in the new series! I can understand Ant is a good mechanic but being in the highlights is his real talent (extreeeeemely boring). He took over the show(ing off) and bored us with his highest skills regarding what he was doing. I really wish him the best but please let the acting for someone else. Also, the dream car... hahaha, that is another (bad) story.
Pieces of Her (2022)
Anatomy of stupid
First of all, after three episodes (more than enough) it seems that mother and daughter have absolutely nothing in common beside the blonde tinted hair. It really seems that the daughter was adopted. If the writer's intention was to depict an extremely stupid character, then she succeeded, because Andy is the prototype of stupid blonde, understanding nothing at all and behaving like a little scared puppy, trying to get out of trouble but getting deeper into it.
Now, I am not saying anything about acting, because it is reasonably good, but beside Andy, the rest of the characters are extremely boring and uninterested.
The Watcher (2022)
Skip this
Another boring story where everything goes wrong for a decent, traditional family. Psychotic events where neighbors are mentally ill or just crazy, authorities don't give a... about contributors having problems, and finally, the worst of all, family members turning on each other. It seemed like a war, where everybody loses, no mather what happens. In my opinion this is a sick movie made by sick people for bored and sick audience. I really hope none of this can ever be found in a decent American city.
The image is good, acting is average, the music follows the action but the story is awfull. Skip this.
iZombie: Death Moves Pretty Fast (2019)
Still very good acting, but...
The story turns to garbage.
I very much appreciate the show because of the phenomenal acting of the main characters but the story keeps going downhill with unbelievable twists and characters going dumb. This episode and the next one are totally garbage, hope the next ones will go better...
From my experience the writers are the weak link in most tv series... understandable.
My overall rating for the show is high, so don't worry... the previous seasons were pretty good. Great characters and plots but when personal matters became main story all went south.
I am still getting restrictions from imdb so there are some issues there I guess.
Fear the Walking Dead: Close Your Eyes (2018)
Unbelievable bad
A human behaviour advisor or psychologist should have been hired for this series because Disney cartoons are more belivable than this show. I admire Alicia struggling in taking decisions but it makes no sense whatsoever...
Fear the Walking Dead: What's Your Story? (2018)
Worst season so far
Inconsistent stories going back and forth, actions lacking common sense, time wasted watching this.
Image is unbelievable bad, poor directing, make-up worse than before. Some acting is great but not enough to save the season.
The Walking Dead: The Calm Before (2019)
Absolutely garbage
You must be really out of sense to believe the crap on this episode. The real deal is that some of the cast had to be fired (instead of the screenwriters).
None of the zombies senses works anymore. You just need a ugly face (even if some of them already had one), to distract them hahaha. I really became a zombie fan, hope they will win soon...
Some people must be sick to overrate this garbage (not a surprise).
The Walking Dead: The Day Will Come When You Won't Be (2016)
Skip season 7
Not worth watching, redundant stuff, just Negan plyground, being the same for the whole season (really boring, easiest role in the series). Never expect bad people to became good, no one deserves second chances, life is short.
The Walking Dead (2010)
Zombies fan
After several seasons, watching some of the main characters do stupid things from time to time, as the had a suddent brain damage and memory loss (some noob writers i guess). It comes, sooner or later, a time from everyone who watches the show, to take the zombi side and sope the will finally eat everyone (starting with the crew, maybe).
Not to mention the inconsistent behaviour of the zombies...
Only good thing is that I saw other zombi based show way worse than this.
Biggest problem: poor logics, no common sense regarding basic human behaviour
Best thing in show: make-up is fabulous
Three main characters are particularly well-designed.
Final request: please let the zombies win sooner, not later!
Two and a Half Men (2003)
2 separate shows
I can totally understand the frustration of Chuck Lorre, transmitting he is a regular, basic human being, vengefull and not respectfull for the money/ fame Charlie brought. I expected more...
But, even if Cryer is a very good actor, in the last seasons his character turns into a hideous caricature which is hard to watch. I admire the courage of Kutcher, it seems natural for him to portrait a 30 yo child. Fitting in this show is another storry... Lynskey and Thorne are the ups in the second part.
So, 10 stars for Sheen, 1 for the rest 5 (and a half) for the show.
