Mister Roberts (1955)
A not very funny comedy
Fonda, Cagney, Lemmon and the rest could have been put to better use. The writers attempt at comedy was Sophomoric.
The basic idea of this story in the hands of Larry David or Mel Brooks could have resulted in a very funny comedy. Too bad that they were not around to make that happen.
The Man Nobody Knew: In Search of My Father, CIA Spymaster William Colby (2011)
Outstanding Documentary
This documentary, produced and narrated by his son is exceptional. Insights into what took place during his tenure with comments and interviews with the key players in the government at that time.
The Bravados (1958)
BORING.....
Wake me up when something interesting happens in this awful movie. We turned it off after 40 minutes of tedious hum drum nothingness. Gregory Peck was evidently having a bad day or two when he made this movie. Leaden, expressionless acting at it's best.
Pretty Little Liars (2010)
7.6 ?????????
How the hell does this rate a 7.6? The majority of reviews are 1-5.

Bridgerton (2020)
BOOOOOOOOORING
This started out boring, then got more boring as it droned on. I continued to watch it for the benefit of my wife. She loved it. As probably all women do.
My idea of Hell?: watching this for eternity.
The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973)
At least a (7)
How anyone could rate this movie below a 7 is beyond me. I lived in Boston from 1977 to 1995 and this movie catches the Boston scene better than any movie that I have ever seen. Mitchum is outstanding in his role as Eddie Coyle. I've seen it twice and will watch it again. It's that good.
A little known fact is that the Boston Mob had an office in the basement of the Prudential Center for years. Somehow the Boston PD could never figure that out. Huh...............
City on the Hill (2020)
Great Show
I lived in Boston. Bacon nails the Boston accent and the Boston vibe. Excellent casting. Good story line.
Why the hell do you need to contain 150 characters to review a movie or tv series? Either one thinks it is worth watching or it is not. This one is well worth watching.
Copenhagen (2002)
TEDIOUS, SLOW AND UNWATCHABLE
I agree with the guy who wrote this:
From the start this film drags and drags. Clumsy overdubs explaining the history, monochrome acting, boring sets, total lack of any humanity, verve or style. The actors look as if they are drugged. Potentially an interesting story completely wasted. Surely somebody realised how bad it was at some point in producing it?
Rope (1948)
Mediocre Hitchcock
Not one of Hitchcock's better efforts. I was very disappointed and waiting for this dog to come to an end.
Plodding plot, boring dialogue, overacting (Granger).
Trailer Park Boys: Closer to the Heart (2003)
What's Not to Like?
I love this show and its characters. Plenty of no holds barred vulgarity. Very funny situational comedy. I watched every season and am starting over at the beginning again.
It helps me get things in perspective after a hard day at the office.
The Piano (1993)
Boring
After suffering thru 40 minutes or so of this we finally turned it off.
Knuckleball! (2012)
Wonderful
If you are a fan of baseball, you should absolutely love this documentary on Knuckleball pitchers. Outstanding production. Loved every minute of it.
Les Misérables (2018)
BORING AND TEDIUS
Get a good Editor to Edit this thing and leave half of the footage in the trash can and maybe one would have a decent film.
Sharp Objects (2018)
Dreary, Tedious and Boring
Can they possibly drag this turkey out any longer? Terrible series. Could not make it past the second episode.
The Hangover (2009)
Lowest Common Denominator Movie
This movie is for anyone with an IQ under about 85 or so. Ridiculous and stupid and not funny.
Lion (2016)
A Solid "10"
This is an absolutely wonderful movie from start to finish. Could not take my eyes away.
The Dressmaker (2015)
A WASTE OF 2 HOURS
Moronic drivel for the IQ challenged. This movie is moderately amusing for the first 40 minutes or so and then it isn't. The plot line and dialogue for the remaining segment appears to have been created by someone high on something. Overall, a very boring, dumb movie.
Suits (2011)
Excellent Series
This is a terrific show. It's intelligently written with great dialogue and witty retorts between characters. Ok, so it's a little over the top with the quick cutting comments, but still fun to watch.
I would have given this a "ten" but for the excessive time given to the relationship between Mike and Rachel which after a while gets a little tedious.
