Dune (2021)
6/10
Slow
1 November 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I finished the book a month ago. Which was epic.

I found the film slow and boring. It's seems like it was, only the first 5 chapters.

The fight seen was rushed, considering the rest of the film was so slow. This didn't make sense. I will watch part 2 but at this pace, i can see a parts 3,4 coming.

Gutterbug (2019)
8/10
Cracking
2 September 2021
Messed up in your youth. It's easy to slide into disappear. This movie does them feelings, justice. Funny, brutal and sad.

Alot better than most of the dross being made now. Absolute cracking film. Don't believe the 6/10 rating.

Sci fi at its best.

Move over Battlestar. The expanse, it the best sci fi in years. Deep,well written and exciting. So many possibilities for the story to evolve. Season 6 can't get here soon enough. Drummer is a badgirl

Old hat
2 November 2020
As a Sasha baron Cohen fan. I'm was disappointed. He always pushes the boundaries, but this was "old hat". From Ali g to the spy. The guy is genius. This film though was tripe. Same jokes, just rehashed. You can't play characters like Borat, ali g or bruno. More than once, the public won't fall for it. Such ashame, because the first borat film was great. Hence 4/10 come on Sasha you can do better.

9-1-1: Lone Star (2020– )
2/10
I tried
14 October 2020
Wanted to like this. Rob lowe, i likeable. But the show was pur "woke" garbage. The original 911 was decent. This was a spiral of nonsense. How do shows like this get funding? When the likes of Kingdom, stargate universe, watchmen etc get pulled. Who is piling this, on us.

Kingdom (2014–2017)
8/10
What a surprise
13 October 2020
Didn't expect much from this show. Well it was a treat. Sad, funny, brutal and well written. Jay's character was, a true portrayal of a man with demons. Alvey the has been drunk. Christina the junky brass. All outstanding. Shame it got cancelled with all the (woke) rubbish about at the moment. As a mma fan I'd never even heard of this show. Such ashame, it was never marketed. I knock Netflix, but I'd like to say thanks for airing this gem. Bravo to the cast. A special shout out to Kiele Sanchez, for sticking with the show after her personal tragedy.

Space Jim
17 June 2020
I shunned this because of the comdey tagline. This the best scifi I've seen in years. No violence just science adventures and fun. Took a while to not see "Brian " every time the captain spoke. Think original kirk startrek with a little swearing and a few gags. Great tv hope there will be a season 3

Scifi
22 April 2020
Warning: Spoilers
A real scifi movie, very Neal Stephenson . Loved it, bit slow in places, but i give 10/10 for budget, special effects and story. Just a shame the left the Tall fella behind. Part 2 would be great, but I'm happy with just the one.

The Twilight Zone (2019–2020)
3/10
You are now entering the woke zone
2 March 2020
Oh dear, western culture is rubbish, whites are racist and all minorities are oppressed. So disappointed, The twilight zone was the business of a show in black and white. Then 80s came and it dropped in standing. Well now its scrapping the barrel. Can't we have show from America. where all races get on and don't have to reminded of our forefathers mistakes, in treating people like dirt. While focus on race rather than class. The powers that be get on with grinding people down.

Ad Astra (2019)
5/10
Subtract
25 February 2020
What do get if you subtract the good bits of Conrad's Heart of darkness and Apocalypse now. You get Ad Astra, dull boring film with no grit or excitement. I'm all in for slow in depth sci fi, but this just boring. Such a shame, i was looking forward to 2 hours of escapism.

What a shame
26 July 2019
Great idea. Ruined by lgbtq rubbish. I don't care if you are bi, into threesomes, gay or straight. Generations are going to look back at tv from the last couple of years. And think the world went nuts. It's a shame because, the story is good. Left us on a cliff edge but you know it's going to be cancelled because of poor ratings. If this nonsense continues i the Netflix is getting cancelled.

Russia, USA, China, Britain, France, Israel, Pakistan, India, North Korea. Lets get rid of this horror. Surely as a species, we are past this barbarous nonsense. I'm no pacifist, but whats the point. How this world could be with cooperation. A brave new world, for all our future generations must be better than this madness.... A must watch for all warmongers and people who want to live in peace.

Chernobyl (2019)
10/10
Wow
22 May 2019
Outstanding terrifying Sad. Unbelievable that the world does not know about the 3 heroes that saved the planet. Should be taught in all schools.... I remember being at school when this happened a they told us in Great Britain to close our windows. RIP to the 10s of thousands that died due to incompetence. And a big thank you to the heroes of Chernobyl...... Must see tv, real horror.

Gem of a scifi movie. Really interesting, definitely going to seek out the writer. Watched it dubbed, due to being lazy. Going to watch it again in Spanish.

No bad not great.
1 May 2019
Billy Hill is a forgotten legend. This film doesn't do him justice. His achievements as a gangster were unsurpassed. Post office robbery, gold bullion robbery diamond mining in SA. Plus he was one that got out at the right time. Film doesn't go deep enough. Just to much knifing and fighting. Billy, Jack and Albert were intelligent crooks. That used their environment to earn. Billy Hill book is a lot better than this bubble gum.

Rubbish
22 February 2019
Boring, not fun, not interesting. Poor animation. Spider-Man is next level compared to this nonsense.... I've been a superman since 78. The whole superman franchise needs a boost or it's dead in the water.
