Hart to Hart: Hart of Darkness (1981)
RIDICULOUS!!!!
This episode is either a 1 star or 10 stars depending on your mood of the day. I'm having fun with it so i'll give it a 10.
I'm not going to even get into it, but after the part where spikes come out of the eye machine at the hospital and Jennifer says or does NOTHING, and then the rattlesnake is put under Jonathan's food tray and both the Harts say or do NOTHING - I realized you just have to roll with it (what did they do with the rattlesnake btw??).
Ridiculous fun, and Ed Harris plays a fun over the top psycho too!!
The Eyes of Tammy Faye (2000)
Campy and lack of story quality telling.....
First of all i love chastain and garfield so nothing against them they were just completely miscast for this (mostly because of their age i'll explain in a moment). Yes Tammy Fayes signature look was the long eyelashes and extensive heavy makeup but even with that she didn't look like a drag queen.
The makeup job was horrible and actually works against chastains performance. She also sounds more like sarah palin than tammy faye (just found that funny i kept hearing Tina Fey instead of Tammy Faye). I actually like both of them when they were playing the characters young, very authentic and that's where they are able to show off their acting chops. I think the camp plays itself when they are both portrayed older, they look too young and it doesnt work. They always look 20 years younger than they characters they're portraying its hard to take them seriously (another element that always adds to campy films).
Speaking of authenticity the surrounding cast is great and very authentic. D'onofrio, Jones, Olds - they all slide perfectly into character. You don't doubt them for a second.
The scripts starts out strong then kinda falls apart. There's a great story here but this film doesn't capture it. It's the kind of film where you should walk away with a bit of empathy and a reservation of judgment (no pun intended) based on their childhoods, early years and all their unknown inner motives, instead you just walk away shrugging your shoulders.
I Care a Lot (2020)
Fun popcorn flick!!
Fun popcorn flick with Pike doing what she does best. Very satisfying ending with a great message!!
Hart to Hart: Color Jennifer Dead (1980)
So bizarre!!!
These shows are so funny and make no sense at all but at the same time fun to watch. There are 3 things that jump out in this episode. The towel scene at the end - i'll say no more. The portrait of Jennifer - it looks so silly like a kid did it not a famous painter. In fact its a little scary. And the third is the detectives girlfriend. What is that all about?? Are they making fun of a mentally challenged person!!?? I have no idea what her character was all about she was super nice and the Hart's were like eww gross weirdo stay away from us lolol!! Amazing TV.

Velvet Buzzsaw (2019)
A Big Mess.
I can't figure out if Nightcrawler set the bar too high or if this film is simply a big mess all on its own........
