Battlefield Earth (2000)
I gave this 10 stars, no, I am not intoxicated.
The reason why I gave it such a high rating is because it is such a truly awful piece of media with its hilarious thespian rasta Klingons that it is one of those films that any lover of movies especially B -->Z grade just has to watch, as it is a dreadful film that tries to be so much more than it ever could have been 😂 though you may require sickness travel pills before starting out due to the "Dutch" angles the presumably gin filled director chose to go with.
To the young, this is the gift of mediocrity I a millennial brings to you, go now and ensure your children know of this film lest they be happy in life.

- Battlefield Earth. Trust me, it will make sense.
Gen V (2023)
Oh for the love of GOD will y'all lighten up down there on the reviews,.
Is it the boys? No.
Is it trying to be anything like the boys? No.
Is it entertaining to watch? Yes.
Does it have ridiculously over the top gore to the point you are laughing while chewing your knuckles like the Boys? Yes.
Is it more or less serious than the Boys? More. It is a show yes based on younger people but it has a more dare I say grounded serious approach to plot and reasons and a lot more tragedy to be found in the backgrounds of broken kids being used by corporations and their families and the consequences unto families of such kids. There is no Homelander nor Butcher here (yet) but rest assured it is in the Vought universe and there is cross over between the shows and characters and despite its serious moments it keeps up the comedy pretty well.
It also takes an interesting approach to the issues regarding non binary gender the likes of which I have only ever seen shows like Star trek broach in such a similar manner from time to time over the last 30yrs.
The actors are young but pretty competent, the show overall I have found it highly entertaining, different to the Boys for sure but a welcome contrast rather than a clone, well worth my time and support and I hope it continues and evolves out from here.
