Bye Bye Barry (2023)
Interesting and more Barry than expected
Barry in his own words. It's a great look into the greatest that ever played covering his career to his family relationships. I think a lot of people who have been Barry fans since his days at Oklahoma State will particularly enjoy the relationship aspects between Barry and his father.
It's an NFL production, so there's the expected highlight moments throughout the film to relive or be introduced to his greatness. There's plenty of interviews from people who were questionable choices, but the comments from Barry's teammates and others make up for it.
Several in our household that aren't football fans enjoyed it as well.
The Rookie (2018)
Has become an after-school special
The third season has transformed into something written to indoctrinate your 3rd grader. It's both insulting and dumb at the same time.
Sad as the first couple of seasons were fairly good.
1917 (2019)
Good, but certainly not as great as the hype.
While the movie was enjoyable, it doesn't live up to the accolades it's receiving.
The stylistic long shots are a welcome change of pace in an era where 3-second clips are spliced together have become the norm. The flaw in pacing the entire movie in the characters' real-time is it doesn't allow much meat on the bone when it comes to story or character depth. It's too much of a good thing.
