A Hard Problem (2021)
A nice movie about two smart people solving a problem in the near future.
To me, this was a good movie.
All the acting was good.
No one seemed out of place.
The storyline was good, it was basically a 'why are we here' type theme.
The dialogue was excellent, every sentence was well crafted and every reply was just right.
It must have taken a long time to write the script, with a lot of 'aw yea, that's perfect!' being said out loud a lot during the writers' collaboration.
Sadly, I got distracted by real life towards the end so I didn't understand the ending, but luckily, i'll probably have some time next week to watch it again.
Good luck to the writing team, I hope they keep up the streak of good scifi.
Fringe: Unearthed (2010)
Who the heck was she?
I suppose this review is about 10 years too late, but, Just finally got around to watching this episode.
A good episode, although, like everyone else, seeing Charlie was confusing.
But the entire time, in the back of my mind, I kept thinking i'd seen Lisa Donovan (Alice Kremelberg) SOMEWHERE before!
Then finally it hit me, she looked just like Sarah Bailey (Robin Tunney) from 'The Craft'!
An enjoyable episode, thank you!
Star Trek: The Next Generation: Peak Performance (1989)
Couple ideas that would have made this better.
Watched it tonight. Had a few thoughts.
It was a nice quirky episode until the Ferengi showed up and gave them an excuse to turn the whole thing into a 'oo they killed the hostage so the badguys have no chips left' twist.
Here's a couple things that would have been super cool.
The whole 'Wesley is gonna do something shady so we can Kobayashi Maru';
Well, it would have been TONS better if - get this,
If they performed the Picard Maneuver on him!!!
-he's the only person who's never see it!!
That would have been cool. it would have worked.

I think this is even better.
The alien dude that beat Data at that game the first time and then Capt Picard told him to 'suck it up buttercup' and Data won the 2nd time; nah.
Instead of Wesley dumpsterdiving on the Enterprise, how cool would it have been if Wesley had a talk with data and said 'hey, you know how you can't try to win in tic tac toe?'
Data would take a sec to make sure.
Then nobody could beat him in the game, that's a much better way.
Thank you for reading my humble review.
Sense8 (2015)
I tried to like this show.
I watched season 1, and tried to like this show. It tried to wayyy to hard to be drama and uncomfortableness. I realize the writers/directors were just being passionate about how they themselves have felt, in situations similar to it. I had time to kill, so i undeleted the 2nd season. I heard it had better reviews. I'm not half way through yet, and, i appreciate they've ... switched from uncomfortabling and, well, i haven't noticed more shakeycam. The 2nd season isn't worse than the first. i'm almost half way though. If you sat through the first season and you still have time to kill, so far it's not worse. All the actors were great. NOBODY did a crappy job. cept wasserface's fiancee's dad, the guy that lived after the uh, assault. He's stuck trying to sound sincere like a guy that wants his god's temples to be removed. I'm glad he lived, I feel bad for him tho. The things ppl have to do for $. If you wanna watch a drama on TV, with a lot of not steamy sex scenes and a ton of lbg, aw man, i have to go look up how to spell this crap eh. I'm not young, i've seen everything. if i misspelled something i was trying to respect; then this is the movie for you. It's super good, I just have more important chores I should do.
