Napoleon (2023)
Could have been so much better
As with some other reviews Napoleon doesn't really hit the mark. It trys to cover too much material which leads to a somewhat disappointing experience. Yes the battle scenes despite being relatively short, are breathtaking. The acting is also accomplished, but in my opinion lacked authenticity. It would have been better for example if Joaquin Phoenix had spoken in a french accent.
I also felt that the film didn't portray the tactical genius of Napoleon in battle. Yes there was elements of it but not in any great depth.
I constantly found myself wondering where the film was going next.
If the film had focused on the famous battles in little more depth instead of trying to cover the politics, love affairs and relationships then maybe it would have been a more enjoyable film.
Clarkson's Farm (2021)
Absolutely Brilliant!
Stumbled across this on Amazon. Its absolutely brilliant. One if not the best series I've seen. Superbly filmed with some great characters.
Everything just works and fits seamlessly together.
Funny, emotional, informative and wonderfully enjoyable.
As with most things involving Clarkson things do not go necessarily to plan, which makes for unmissable TV.
The Unholy (2021)
It's not often I walk out of a movie!
Was encouraged to see this film by the recent 10 out of 10 reviews. Well they must have been paid to write those as this film was very poor. A couple of early jumps, but that aside the baby face in the clouds was the start of the rapid slide downhill! Unless you believe in miracles and want to waste a couple of hours don't bother with this rubbish!
Schitt$ Creek (2015)
Absolutely Brilliant!
One of the best sitcoms in a while. Full of characters that you will become attached to. Fantastic script and acting. Many memorable moments and episodes, which are only 20 mins long do easy to fit into your day. Sit back and enjoy!
