Altered Carbon (2018)
First season is a masterpiece, second is a disgrace and a waste of your time
I can't remember any series that would be so good in the 1st season and that bad in the 2d. While the first season is as cyberpunk as they come, the second season is a cheap soap opera wrapped in blue neon lights and spiced with a ton of Bollywood fights. I've stopped watching 2d season after 3d episode because I'm pretty sure there will be group singing and dancing, and I want to avoid watching that. Please, keep clear of the 2nd season at all costs. Re-watch the first season, or Blade Runner, or Johnny Mnemonic, or Wild Palms, or How I Met Your Mother - anything but the second season of Altered Carbon, that is utter garbage.
Walking Tall: The Payback (2007)
almost film-noir movie
So, what I gotta say. There were three movies named "walking tall" back to the 70's, dedicated the cherished memory of Sheriff Buford Pusser, God bless his soul. Good old touching movies. And there was a re-make of Walking Tall in 2004, that one with some guy called "The Rock" playing main character (one of the worst movies I ever saw). So, after watching this movie of 2007 I have to say that it's a even a greater pity that movie with "The Rock" guy was ever created. Because only THIS one could be called as a worthy continuer of "Walking Tall" series. It has a genuine atmosphere, excellent colors, good acting and a lot of sincerity. It even has some traces of film-noir, and that is especially good. Honest and sincere movie about good and evil ones.
