She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022)

Poorly written mess but slighty entertaining

[4/10 · 19 August 2022]

Honestly Love she Hulk but the way its filmed lacks transparency with the rest of the MCU and leaves heavy doubt she will fit in with the rest of everything. Its quirky fun and has that silly deadpool style comedy but feels like was written for a mediocre audience that knows nothing of the MCU. And the haters that say this is a female empowerment show are wrong. Its still She Hulk and some of that is what the character was created initially anyways. If you have nothing to watch and want to kill time its great for that. Is it special and great like other MCU shows. No. In closing if the rumors are true about Daredevil having a lighter side from what i just watched in this show im gonna have to pass on the rest of this show. I mean its like putting Deadpool in the Movie Logan or Blade. Makes no sense.

Midnight Mass (2021)

Tell me your a vampire movie without telling me your vampire movie

[6/10 · 15 December 2021]

Headlines misleading yes its a mini series. Worth the watch typically creepy tones and slow burn horror but more leaning on hinting questions of life. Alot of preaching but also some sentimentally well crafted dialogue which was a break from alot of typical norms. Strong beginning and in between. The ending was sorta worth the wait. Good show to kill late time boredom wasn't great not bad.

WandaVision (2021)

Average entertainment

[5/10 · 16 January 2021]

Plain and simple. Its the Truman show mixed with the twilight zone. In my opinion the sitcom angle might lead to another mcu villain from the Xmen universe which Wanda is also a part of. Mojo just a guess. But if you didn't care for these characters before the show. Dont waste time its average and not interesting.

The Witcher (2019– )

Well it is what it is

[5/10 · 30 December 2019]

I think the show is fair but despite its title the main character doesnt get as much screen time as id like. After all its based on a game which ive played. All i can say is they tried to hard to have intertwining stories that break off of what the witcher is doing. Its really boring until the action starts which mostly is tens mins broken up in hour long epsiodes

Jack Ryan (2018–2023)

Ignore the spoiled brats giving season 2 a bad rap

[10/10 · 6 November 2019]

Season one arguably the best. Season two not the greatest thing in the world but pulls and is a re write of clear and preseny danger. Its actually better giving the story depth unlike what two hours of what Harrison ford could. I could imagine if there is a season 3 we could see sum of all fears or perhaps patriot games. The acting is well on par with shows like blacklist. Give it a shot its action packed and decently written. Alot of likeable characters. Season two isn't the greatest but alot of shows have short comings on season two blues. Gotham, stranger things , breaking bad weeds etc.

Creepshow (2019– )

So far so good

[7/10 · 2 October 2019]

First episode reeled me in. Nostalgia is one thing that comes to mind. Easter eggs yes. Its definitely a throwback feature of the original first two. First half is meh. But the second half bravo. A perfect combo of childhood fear and Indian in the cupboard. No pun intended. With the brash overload of b movie horror movies. We now have a home on shudder with episodes to pop some pop corn and crack open some sodas and peel open the candy. If you don't like the original movies from way back dont write a review this is fanfare and hardcore horror film fanatics

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)

Entertainment at its worst

[6/10 · 16 February 2019]

Numberous plot holes including the real time gap between movies made would have made john connor 6 years old. Special effects and great acting save this mess of a plot holed movie. The first one will always remain the best terminator. The fact that Arnold Schwarzenegger doesnt kill any of the bikers before he is confronted by john after he saves him. Note the jock bullies that try to mess with them at the pay phone Arnold proceeds to try and kill one john intervenes. I know its sci fi but having the t1000 was a bubk idea onky used because it would wow the special effects market. Me personally would have had Kyle reese sent back in time a second time seeing as stooping the first terminator would have reset the time line anyways. Would have had three t800s. One played by Arnold Schwarzenegger that was good.

The Expendables 3 (2014)

Entertainment with lack of its best former self

[7/10 · 9 February 2019]

I loved the movie but expandables 3 is the Disneyland version of its former success. It was meant to be rated R but the studio made a horrible mistake making it pg13. Several scenes would have been way better had it been. The plot and locations where amazing classic cheesy action beautifully done. Mel Gibson gives us the role of a lifetime being the bad guy. Needless to say this movie requires some popcorn a beer and an open mind to get through it. Hopefully the upcoming sequel number 4 will go back to its rated R roots. The fight scenes played out well into each actor and qhat there known for. Rhonda rousey judo Sly stallone boxing Antonio banderas played a character in this film that closely resembles that of the same one he did with stallone in assassins.
