The Man Who Fell to Earth (2022)

black not woke

[7/10 · 24 April 2022]

No social justice message, story is about the story, actors are just black.

....going by the 1st episode, will continue to watch, other sci-fi has it worse.

Intergalactic (2021)

(7/10)

[10/10 · 21 May 2021]

I always feel they try to do too many stories, I was mostly interested in the main girl & the witch, the other characters were unnecessary drama.

The Left Behind (2019 TV Movie)

Good but people wont like it.

[9/10 · 10 October 2020]

It shows the reality of white privilege - homelessness, poverty, lack of education, few career opportunities.

I'm an Asian living in the UK and I see this happening, the racism against whites is far greater then then what happens to minority groups because it's done via the system, in the name of compassion, and you don't see it.

Many reading this would dispute what I'm saying but you just have to look at the statistics for homelessness and further education demographics to see this, the facts don't lie.

Tomb Raider (2018)

Hated Angelina's films, liked this...

[10/10 · 4 June 2018]

Dunno what others are talking about, this was good,

Capsule (2015)

Good acting, mediocre story, fiction presented as fact.

[6/10 · 23 September 2016]

Set in 1959 the British put the first man in space with a capsule called "Hermies", however the Russians trick the pilot into colliding with a US mercury capsule and landing Russia which kills the pilot, the mission is covered up.

99% of the film is just looking at the pilot sitting in the capsule, he does things like replace faulty electronics & closing valves to malfunctioning systems, its pretty boring.

Can't really recommend this movie, the only good thing is the acting.

Some facts: Britain had 2 space worthy rockets: the Blue Streak & the Black Arrow, these weren't developed until the late 60s early 70s, nor would they be able to lift a capsule as large as the one depicted in this movie.

If your looking for a fictional "first man in space" movie try "Wings of Honneamise".
