Deadly Cuts (2021)
Funny, Sharp, Clever
I loved this film. Very enjoyable and a full of laughs. Very well acted and directed. Zoolander meets the Commitments meets Caddyshack. Hopefully it will be released in the Cinema.
Good characters both in the background and the lead roles.
Kin (2021)
I am not sure why a public broadcaster is obsessed with drug dealers.
Kin has an excellent cast and top class production value. But the story is predictable and is clearly made by people who know nothing about crime.
No salt of the earth Dubs in the show, the cops are made to look like idiots. Maybe in the 80s and 90s when the cops had no armed response units. But now the cops are a little more sophisticated. They could do with showing the affects of addiction rather than the money to be made by a tiny few. If they bring it back please kill off the female lead. Her rise to power makes this story ridiculous.
Gang Related (1997)
Surprisingly good movie, great cast, great script
When I see Jim Belushi in a film its normally a red flag. I gotta say, this movie is top notch. Clever and raw, 2 corrupt cops get themselves in hot water. If you like the Shield, the Wire or Sopranos then this should be your kind of film.
Breaking Bad (2008)
The emperor's new clothes
I'll be honest, I don't get why people love this show. It start out as interesting and turns into a completely unrealistic theme. It is nowhere near a top show. It's closer to CSI than to the Sopranos.
1917 (2019)
Jolly good show
Not a bad movie, basic story combines Saving Private Ryan and Gillipolli. Two classics. Two English soldiers set off to deliver an urgent message to cancel an attack, that is a German trap. Based on real events where the Germans retreated to shorten their lines, into a stronger defensive position. The two go through deserted German trenches, where they come across Germans who can't shoot accurately or will sneakily stab them if they try to help them.
War scenes are good but the film lacks depth.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
Basic story was good but too many side plots thrown in
Enjoyed Adam Driver and Rey plots but too many sub plots. They could have made another movie about Finn and Poe. Too much squeezed in.
Spoiler
How did the emperor build all those battle cruisers? When where the crews trained to run them? I know its fantasy but a small bit of reality is needed.
They didn't have to have so much CGI.
Liked the plot twist with Rey's identity.
The Current War (2017)
Enjoyable
Focuses on the rivalry between Westinghouse and Edison. Tesla was thrown in there it seems because his name is hot at the moment. Shows the obsessive side of Edison, while Westinghouse is painted in a far more favourable light.
Game of Thrones: The Iron Throne (2019)
Rapped up neatly.
The mad Queen's quest has ended. Jon Snow did the honourable thing. The queen slayer ended up not with glory but being exiled. Like Ned Stark he didn't play the game of thrones but choose to save the innocent.
