The Little Mermaid (2023)
Wonderful remake!
I'm not a fan of remakes, so I wasn't expecting to actually like this movie, but I couldn't have asked for more! The movie was amazing. Ariel's singing was spectacular. Just like the original. However, I wasn't a fan of Eric's song. I've seen a lot of comments about the movie dragging out. Not true! It was action packed from start to finish. Sebastian was my favorite. He kept the movie lively & funny. I was disappointed with Flounders role. I wish we could've seen more of him.
My daughter said she liked the remake better than the original! Overall, great movie! I would definitely recommend. My husband even watched it!
Cruel Summer (2021)
Cringeworthy!
This series is the most drawn out & boring series I've ever watched. The first season was actually pretty decent. It drew me in within the first couple of episodes, but then it became repetitive & tedious. I had to force myself to watch the last few episodes of the first season.
Starting with the second season, I was unaware it was a different storyline until I saw a commercial during another series I was watching. I decided to tune into the second season. Within the first episode, I knew who killed Luke as soon as I saw Isabella. It wasn't that hard to understand. Just like the first season, the writers draw you in with a few clues that has nothing to do with the final action. Watching Megan complain about everything made me not want to watch the show any further. It was very obviously that Isabella killed Luke within the first few episodes. No one is going to beg for loyalty if they're not truly loyal. No one is going to go above and beyond to prove their loyalty if they're truly loyal. It was a con artist move. Isabella killed Luke & everyone knew around the 4/5 episode!!!! The writers need to do better because it no one wants to watch a complaining teenager hate another person because of a boy and then cry at the end because they knew the truth the entire time.
The Wrong Cruise (2018)
Great concept
Great concept, however the editing was poorly done with noticeable mistakes! Different cars being shown, such as Vivica picking up her daughter from school. They got in one car but came home in another. The cruise ship was different every time it was shown & they drove down the same road nearly every scene! The characters wardrobes could've been a lot better. They were wearing jeans in Mexico when everyone else had on shorts & sundresses. I expected better from Lifetime, but I'm truly not surprised by the lack of effort from Lifetime. They seem to rush movies to just to make quick money.
The movie was good, but very predictable! Vivica A Fox never disappoints! I was also happy to watch a movie there the teenager wasn't bratty.
