Love, Simon (2018)
10/10
The people have to see this movie, it's wonderful
10 June 2018
Deserve to have more than 10 stars.

Made me cry for several times while watching. It is a must see movie! Bring your friends and family!

This movie is for an closed-minded people that they think being on this situations is easy as it may.. it is difficult to open up even to most closest friend/family for whats going thru. most of them the criticize, bullied and judge them according to their belief that being GAY is a big SIN and should not be accepted in the society...

It's a new world already and all sucessfull persons are the one comes from LGBTQ.

I love the movie and hope this will have a continuation story and a lesson.

With all the amazing feelings would definitely watch again.

I like this movie
28 December 2017
Amazing movie. Original. Fantastic. I know Justin and Alex are supposed to be close and siblingly in this movie, but at times they are heading into dangerous territory. Your vision may differ of course, but the closeness, well, a little unsual for a brother and sister. Maybe the actors are into each other a little too much. Alex is Alex as usually, not the perfect role model, but I think this makes the show and the movie the most interesting on that channel, I can barely call Disney. The rest was excellent.

Parents don't have to worry about the example that the rebellious teen sets for their own kids, since Alex eventually is forced to come to terms with her unpleasant behavior when she faces the possibility of life without her family. What's more, she learns important lessons in responsibility and self-confidence and improves her relationship with her brother after she sees things from his point of view. This upbeat, kid-friendly movie is a great choice for families of tweens and might even help get the ball rolling on discussions about topics like rules and respect.

I love it.

Backstage (I) (2016–2017)
10/10
Great show
28 December 2017
This show is a drama containing high school students going through trouble with their relationships at Keaton. This show clings into the story of their troubling problems and having to stay close to one another. The stress these students face is relatable. It seems it would be enjoyable for teens. But, young children might find this show a bit confusing.

Overall, this is one of the most remarkable drama I've seen in a while. Though it barely ever comes on anymore, I still watch the episodes constantly online. I can watch the same ones nonstop, and still be interested in what happens.

Backstage is an amazing show with likable characters, nicely thought-out messages, and a compelling plot. I recommend this show. You won't regret watching this drama.

The actors are actually talented as musicians, artists, and dancers. Most shows do not have talent like that. The only problem I have with the show is that they have too many characters, and I think they are planning on having more. Scarlett and Julie could have been combined into one character, and some are useless altogether. Even then, I can easily overlook that. I would recommend Backstage to my friends!

Another Cinderella Story (2008 TV Movie)
9/10
Great movie
28 December 2017
Okay, it did have the same story line as the first one, but we are talking about A Cinderella Story here. That is why it is called "Cinderella", and yes she will have a mean stepmother and two silly step-sisters so you can't really change on that. The dancing was great. It was fun, light entertainment and definitely better than I expected.

I was attracted because of Selena (by the way, she's my crush) so I borrowed a DVD from my classmate. I didn't notice Seeley at first but when I looked at the poster closer, I was like, "Oh my gosh! He's kind of old for Selena!" The movie focused on the life of our Cinderella here, which is Mary (Gomez). She totally fits her character. Her mom is a dancer and so is she.

During their prom night, where everyone is supposed to wear mask, Mary danced with Joey. Her step sisters and Natalia, Joey's ex-girlfriend, got so jealous so they got rid of Mary.

One of my favorite parts of this movie is the search. There is one girl... and emo girl who tried to show Joey herself. She is so funny.

Two male teenagers love
28 December 2017
The young actors that play Jamie and Ste do an extraordinary job sometimes forgetting how well they pull off such complex characters throughout the movie. I think any gay man growing up can relate to Jamie. He doesn't excel in sports, and almost too smart for his own mother. He is comfortable with his sexuality, and he doesn't give a damn what the world thinks of him. Ste, on the other hand, fears his older brother, and his father made his life miserable. As he states in the film, "they made me ugly".

A wonderful story of gay teenagers that is ideal for parents to show their children; so that they understand that gay people may be different, but not bad. Faithful to the play, great music score and gives a real feeling of English tenements.

A visually stunning, yet careless adaptation of the book
25 December 2017
I'll start by pointing out the obvious: The choice to hire Melissa Rosenberg for screenwriter of this saga was total fail. She bears no true sense of style when attempting to capture key moments between Edward and Bella. She doesn't seem to understand the true depth of their relationship. Her handling of their scenes is SO incredibly weak that it ultimately means the actors - Rob and Kristen - are left up to the task of re-establishing the connection between the characters. Moreover, she doesn't seem much interested in the Cullen family as a whole. Where was the airport scene that reunited them towards the end? Its absence made the voting scene seem like a major WTF? moment. Why was The Truth chapter scanned over as if it meant nothing? Edward's decision to leave and his suffering without Bella made total and complete sense at this point in the book, whereas in the movie, it's barely touched upon. Honestly, why did Melissa choose to tackle this story if she completely takes it for granted???

Taylor Lautner only shines in the earlier scenes. When his character is forced to transform beyond the boyish stage into a vicious werewolf, his amateur acting skills fail him. This guy can't pull off a look or line of intensity without making you cringe for him. And to top it off, JACOB IS A CARBON-COPY OF EDWARD. Read between the lines to see how much he reflects him: Sees girl, spends time with girl, wants girl, can't have girl, struggling with inner demons around girl, can't lose control with girl... Catch my drift??? There's nothing original about Jacob Black. Sure, he's more easy-going and carefree. But he hasn't had to live through what Edward has. He hasn't found his soulmate in Bella like Edward has.

The movie's biggest weaknesses? Script doesn't serve justice to the book. ~ Perhaps more voiceovers would have helped this, who knows. And from a marketing point of view, allowing the story to be a simple overkill of "will teen girl end up with vampire or werewolf?" makes it seem cheap and takes away from what made Twilight a hit in the first place.

The Third one was my favorite
25 December 2017
I liked this one. For what it was, it was entertaining.

What is it about the odd numbered ones in this franchise that are my favorite?

The first Transformers movie was OK. The Third one was my favorite (Which is not saying much). This fifth and last one is up there with the third one.

Like the original movie, The Last Knight is an ensemble cast that revolves around the main character. It's not the best ensemble cast I've seen. Josh Duhamel, who had been in the series longer than Wahlberg felt like a strange insert done for pure nostalgia, but if you are into the Franchise or Transformers in general the ensemble cast gives you that fandom.

Overall, I enjoyed the film. Not one of my favorite franchises but I did like this one. It's like watching a live action cartoon, but that's all the Transformers movies isn't it? Thought this one seems to be the best cartoon out of them all.

A nice addition to the series
25 December 2017
Mostly with the character development. I felt other movies in the series allowed everyone in the cast their moment to shine, but the ensemble here is now far too big with too many super stars like Vin, and the Rock and Jason Statham and brand new Charlize Theron as an incredible villain. This leaves most of the other cast under used, like Tyrese Gibson who was funny, but it was all one liner after one liner without Roman Pearce doing anything.

Still, it's one of the best blockbusters of the year. It has all the bells and whistles needed to keep you cheering in your seat as you watch all the glorious action unfold.

The Flash (2014–2023)
10/10
Don't listen to the haters, it's awesome!
21 December 2017
The Flash is awesome! With only one season down it's proved it is a force to be reckoned with! It's got an amazing cast, incredible stories, visual effects, acting, cinematography. Season 1 is in my honest opinion the BEST LIVE ACTION SUPER HERO ADAPTATION EVER!

The whole Reverse Flash Story is perfectly executed, with plot twists and turns thrown at you nearly every episode. It was hard to see what would happen next! It just kept getting better and better.

Needless to say The Flash is the definitive superhero ride. It's going to be tough for season 2 to match season 1 or even exceed it, but Arrow Season 2 did it, so why can't the Flash.

The first season was so good I almost cried when it came to a end. (I'm not a baby when it comes to a TV show or movie) I would recommend this show to all of my friends, 10 out of 10!

Grant Gustin is an amazing actor and other actors too.

I really can't wait for the next episode.

Santa Clarita Diet (2017–2019)
8/10
Great TV show
21 December 2017
Barrymore and Olyphant have great chemistry and are believable as a long married wife and husband.

I pushed forward and was rewarded as the episodes kept coming. Everything I didn't understand at first made sense the further in I got and the episodes just kept getting funnier.

Of course this show won't be to everyone's....uhhh appetite. It plays murder and cannibalism for laughs and those with a weak stomach and ears that bleed at cussing will get turned away pretty quickly.

Best quality is that they never take themselves seriously. Simply the beauty of madness.

Each and every performance in this comedy is brilliant, from the most minor of supporting roles to the lead cast.

I really hope the show continues. Great job.

Arrow (2012–2020)
10/10
I love this TV Series
21 December 2017
I just saw the first episode of Arrow and frankly i was amazed. This Series fell right into my taste and i can't wait to see more, it was amazing. The characters seem very believable so far, few minor doubts here and there but nothing crucial; acting also up to part. Story is realistic, without that fantastical loop holes that comic adaptations usually have. Another difference is Arrow seems to be mainly after the white collared criminals of his city rather than some "super villain" bent on world domination. The acting, fight scenes and filming is excellent! The music fits perfectly with the show, dark and gritty.

Hollyoaks (1995– )
10/10
The Best soap Better than other soaps
21 December 2017
Hollyoaks is very very awesome. It's nice for all ages mainly for youngs. I am a big fan, but for good reasons! Hollyoaks has an amazing ability to not take itself too seriously and then at other times it can deal extremely well with story lines or issues over soaps dare not touch. Teacher student relationship, cot death, racism and it does so brilliantly. The acting can be a bit off at times but ultimately this is a great soap to watch if you want to relax and suspend reality after a long day at work or school. Highly recommend this show.

Grimm (2011–2017)
9/10
Best series that I see
29 August 2017
Congratulations for all actors were awesome. I love this TV series. You can really have fun with that series. The plot might not be very innovative, "Grimm" is yet another mystery-series beneath the many many mystery-series out there. I'm so sad is finished. Why the show was canceled? I loved very, very.
