McDonald & Dodds: A Wilderness of Mirrors (2020)
Disappointing second episode.
Too many stereotypes. Some mediocre acting, with the exception of Jason Watkins and Joanna Scanlon who show their skills working with the little the script gives them. The format has potential and isn't lacking imagination, but it needs more attention to detail and less reliance on unnecessary conflict between McDonald and Dodds and a ridiculous portrayal of their boss. Hope the second series ups it's game. I look forward to more of Dodds, the rest I can do without.
Night of the Templar (2012)
Give this one a miss
Really, don't waste any of your time or money on this dreadful film. Implausible story Implausible characters Poorly cast Poorly acted Poorly directed. Dreadful accents Nothing redeeming at all. Very difficult to see how it's scored as highly as it has. Not helped by large amounts of knitted chain-mail. I have no idea how to fill 10 lines of text with relevant comment, nor do I have any idea why unnecessary length makes a review better. Surely a quick and concise review is more useful than a lot of twaddle?
