Ophelia (I) (2018)
8/10
Well I liked it.
2 July 2019
Cannot say, I know the story of Hamlet as such like some people, having never read the book or seen any plays etc. But I did enjoy this film. Well, that's it really, enjoyable and recommended.

Brilliant.
22 May 2019
I have been waiting for the film to come out Kesari for a while, so in the meantime, I came across this series. From the very first episode I was engrossed, I kept saying "I'll only watch one more" but I ended up watching about 8 on the trot, it is that engaging. So, I binged watched the whole series in a few days, a week say, the episodes were rivetting and you could not wait for the next episode. Fair enough it is not big budget, and some of the acting is a bit stilted, the British actors that is, but I would highly recommend this show.

I even got a bit teary eyed towards the end, losing the characters, who you had got to know.

A very impressive show.

Unplanned (I) (2019)
10/10
Stirring.
2 April 2019
I watched the movie with tears in my eyes. Please pray for all the unborn babies. I can't believe how evil we have become. Please stop this madness, more people need to view this, spread the word.

Abortion is not a RIGHT(not nowadays, there are MANY, MANY forms of contraception about now to prevent pregnancies, for both men and women) not like in the 70's when abortion laws were slackened(for the lack of preventatives). Abortion is a medical procedure for severe medical necessities, either complication for the mother or severe health concerns to the child.

Please watch this and you may change your opinion on our free and liberal abortion laws that seem to becoming more and more barbaric, just look at New York, and the vile late term abortion, disgraceful.

Mother! (2017)
1/10
A serious glorification of Satanism, if there ever was one.
18 March 2019
The late Ted Gunderson, at one time head of the FBI's Los Angeles division, talked all about what this movie displays.

From killing babies, to draining the blood of kids to chemically extract some type of fear compound that the body creates when you're in a state of terror.

Aronofsky is one of the Satanists that Gunderson tried to expose, and he put his ill intentions on full display in this horrid piece of tripe of a movie.

A far as the female actress that ends up as the Satanic Sacrifice, along with her baby, I don't even think he explained what the script was to her. Just like in the movie, her so called 'Husband' doesn't explain anything to her, especially why a group of Satanists just get to show up at their house and do whatever they want, and he never steps in and stops them.

You show up at my house and do that in a dream, and you better wake up and apologize.

Screw you Aronofsky, you're going straight to hell.

Emotional.
7 February 2019
Watched this the other day, came across it by chance. Well, they crammed more feelings, emotions and heartfelt sadness etc in the 13 minutes or so this plays for than you would get in a 2 hour dramatic movie.

Only wished it was a full movie I wanted to watch more of it, a very emotional short film. Well worth a view.

Well I enjoyed it anyway.
22 January 2019
Why it has such a low score I do not know, I found it rivetting and very sad in parts to watch, but would say to anyone watch it, you will not be disappointed.

Why all the bad reviews?
19 January 2019
Just got through watching it, been waiting avidly for a copy of it, and well worth the wait I thought. Yes it is a bit POTC-ish, but it was still swashbuckling fun in its own way. They seemed to end it as though they may make a sequel, I hope they do, because I really enjoyed this.

Frenzy (2018 TV Movie)
6/10
Entertaining for what it is.
31 December 2018
It is was not brilliant, but then again, it was not rubbish, it was very entertaining, nothing believable in it though, but saying that, when you watch a shark killing film, isn't that what you are supposed to do, suspend belief, it was an ok way to pass an 1 and half hours, I have watched worse.

A bit boring?
7 November 2018
I normally like these sort of films, Asian fantasy-esque fims. But from the get go, it did not hold my interest. Yes the special effects were ok, but could not really make head nor tails of what was going on. That may be in part to the English subtitles, they were very small and and very fast subtitles, so while straining to try to read them, by the time you had started reading them, they went that fast, that you never got all of the subtitles. If it were dubbed into English, Imay give it another go. But overall, it did not impress me, sorry.

Rangoon (II) (2017)
8/10
Entertaining.
2 November 2018
What more could you ask for, it was jolly entertaining. It almost did not feel like a Indian film really, except for the musical interludes. Well worth a viewing, kept me sofa bound for the length of the film. Some of these Indian films deserve to be more well known outside of Asia.

Well I liked it.

A film all the family can watch, no overly violent or sexual scenes, and good Christian values. Watched it twice actually. Not big budget or anything, just a good story, about hope and never giving up. I recommend it anyway.

Summer of 84 (2018)
8/10
A good film.
1 September 2018
Happened across the film by chance online. Watched the trailer, and it had the feel of Stranger Things etc, being a kid of the 80's myself and fancying a bit of nostalgia, thought "why not". It kept me interested and rivetted from the start. A very well made film, I was not expecting the end that it had, a very surprising end. I would recommend this film 100%.

Engaging enough.
12 June 2018
As a pro Palestinian, at least the film did try to give reasons for the situation. The Palestinians were and are not just terrorists for terrorist sake, if this was their only way to get a point across,what were they to do. They had been and still are oppressed and treated abominably by the Israelis since 1947. I am not justifying the hijacking or loss of any of the lives, but at least you see both side of the story with this film.

Samson (2018)
8/10
Oh come on, it was not that bad.
11 May 2018
Ok, it is no Cecil B Demille epic and there are no Oscar winning performances. But it was engaging enough, and it did hold my interest, and entertaining enough. To tell the truth only watched it because the bloke out of those British Vanquis credit card adverts was in it. If you can get passed that it is made on a budget obviously, you might enjoy it, give it a try though. Actually, I am going to watch it again. Watched it on the pc first time round, now going to watch it on our 50 inch tv for a better experience.

Well got round to watching it on our bigscreen tv, and I still think it is good, not brilliant, but good. Put it this way, I gauge how interesting a film is by if I go to the toilet while watching it, if I am bursting and hold off going till the end of the film, that means the film was good to me, I needed to go desperately, but held off, because the film had me hooked. Oh and I have upped the rating to 7 from 6 also.

Give it a chance.
25 February 2018
Sometimes you get fed up of Hollywood films and big blockbusters. Saw the trailer to this, thought it looked ok. Well watched it, and must say I enjoyed it. It was not brilliant, but neither rubbish, but I thought it was good, well it entertained me for an hour and half. Isn't that what films are supposed to do, entertain. Give it a watch, it aint that bad.

At last the truth... 50 million people killed.
2 February 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Low budget movie about political dissenters in the Communist USSR Gulag. I found it interesting because the characters specifically spoke about 50 million people killed in the USSR Gulag. I have watched other Gulag movies, such as The Way Back (2010) and Gulag (1985), and a German and another movie, but none of them mentioned the vast extent of the genocide.

Pros: Does talk openly about the 50 million people killed by USSR. Good portrayal of individual Gulag dissidents. Good dialogue.

Cons: Doesn't specifically name the JEW in running the Communist USSR. Lacks in massive scale Gulag camp sets. Very low budget.

Since it wasn't from a major Jew Hollywood studio, and had no advertising, I was expecting it to not have a huge budget and not to be able to re-create any large Gulag camps with hundreds of extras. But then again Jew Hollywood has never made a Gulag movie.

Don't expect a $100 million Hollywood movie that says 50 million innocent people were killed in USSR - ever.

The big budget movie The Way Back (2010) showed most Gulag inmates were criminals, when in fact Solzhenitsyn said that the criminals were outside the Gulag in Soviet society and the victims were inside the Gulag. That is why I liked this movie so much and would place it above any previous Gulag movie.
