Young Sheldon (2017)
Amazing family show
This is a fantastic show portraying an 80s family in Texas with an amazing story. Every episode is quite short but sufficient enough to put a smile or laughter on your face. I really enjoy the script a lot, often very subtle and back and forth. I can easily say one of the fastest 6 seasons I ever watched in my life. The character development and the scenario both feeds each other and it is indeed a one of a kind experience. I wish I heard this series much earlier but I am actually much happier that I could watch all 6 seasons in a row in a short time.
I must say Annie Potts is amazing and she shines in the first couple of seasons. However later on all family members gets involved in this masterpiece, they are all really good and have really well-portrayed roles.
Absolutely do not miss it.
9/10.
Another Life (2019)
Great Sci-Fi, Great Show
Sci-Fi funs would love this for sure, this is one of the best Sci-Fi show i saw lately. Who cares what a bunch of jerks rate here?
Just check the hate from dislikes to this comment, you understand my point exactly!
C'mon is that all?
Braveheart (1995)
It Gets You Every Single Time
Released in 1995, Braveheart is one of the few productions of its century, that could deliver a story in such a way, I immediately fell in love with it and every time I watch it, it is as captivating as it was first time with its brilliant narrative.
I don't have the slightest idea whether this story is really accurate with history or not, but what really matters in my opinion is the story itself in the movie. The performance of the actors/actresses and direction are both superb, I think Mel Gibson deserves credit at both in that sense, he is in his top season in his career and with no doubt he is "magnificent" in this movie.
In my commentary, I cannot rule out the music of the film, great job by the composer, it is so elegant and so pure and so much fitting to this movie in every sense. You just melt and that's it.
Maybe it is produced in 20th century but it is as universal as any movie can ever be.
Overall;
10/10
You just cannot afford to miss this one, no ..... way
The Queen's Gambit (2020)
Magnificent Journey, Beautiful Serie
Great scenario, beautiful picture, magnificent acting and superb ending.
This was simply the best series I watched as of late.
First of all, Anya Taylor-Joy acted a brilliant performance in this series, she is simply gorgeous through-out the whole series. Picture, costume design, sound and most importantly the music were all top-class. The character development and acting of all actors are great and the directing of the plot is masterful.
You just cant miss this.

The Chronicles of Riddick (2004)
This movie never gets old...
"Who is this man???"
"I am just passing through..."
"Riddick is no common breeder, in a heart beat he dropped 20 of my men"
"Its an animal thing ))"
"You should have taken the money Toombs.."
Obviously one of my favourite movie, Vin Diesel at his best. Always gets me.
The story and action are amazing, there are of course soft spots but who cares, this movie presents an unforgettable experience and i mean it.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
It was worth to see it in Cinema..
I did not go to the Theatre with great expectations.
I had my bit of suspicion whether to go or not to this movie, simply because of J.J. Abram's failure of last 2 movies of the last trilogy. However it turned out, he can make a good movie in the end apart from some stupid mistakes here and there still, I think he or director in vain try hard so much to be more authentic than the original predecessors, they actually forgot sense and reason time to time. Through-out the whole end-trilogy, particular events had either no sense of what was actually needed or the opposite way around over-hyped and over-exaggerated. What they had to do was keeping synch with the history in the same sense, well actually in this movie they did that, but could be of course better.
As a singular movie this one is really good, i was afraid they will mess up this movie again after a good beginning but it did not happen and actors really did a good job too. As i said before, the real problem is the integrity of the story of the whole ending trilogy. This is a good movie and almost a great one; if only there were better 7th and 8th episodes, and a better thinking of realistic sense, this could have been easily a 9 star movie. It is still a screen fest and a very entertaining film nevertheless, enjoy!
8/10
10,000 BC (2008)
Do not pay attention to the Zealots of Documentarily-Authenticity-Seekers
Do not listen accuracy seekers, every movie has its own way and this movie doesnt have a single stupid remark or inaccuracy that can hurt the story in the concept. It is pretty fluid and you wont regret to watch it till the end.
Simply saying, this movie is at the least as entertaining as any other great adventure movie you can watch in a cool sunday evening. The scenario is great, imaginative and historical elements are in effect throughout the whole adventure. It is a pretty long movie but i must say it was worth the ride.
The Haunting of Hill House (2018)
Wow, just Wow...
Never saw an 8.7 horror series in my life, i had my suspicion.
Well what a ride, i am just dazzled, a horror title could only be this much good, hats off fellows.. The acting, the scenario, directing, effects, music, costume, makeup; all so perfect... One of a kind series no wonder about it, i really enjoyed it till the end and although the ending was not something i really cherish as in a horror title it doesnt really change how i feel about this series, it is wonderful and well performed on so many levels. I promise you wont be disappointed. Definititely do not miss it...
A must watch!

The Haunting of Hill House: Silence Lay Steadily (2018)
Last episode does not answer all like most says, here is why..
This series is quite unique and unexpected by the turn of events. And i understand the spirit of last episode quite well, since all dark nights have a dawn, however whole 9 episodes represent a very dark concept and unrelenting Hillhouse phenomenon which is evil at best case. A lot of unfinished business, inexorable and continuous harassment, unexplanable state of minds and flash back and forwards... All in all the theme the series presses on till last episode is that darkness of Hillhouse has no cure and no benefit to anyone, and it is not certain actually what the red room is or what the other ghosts' exact role on any of the hillhouse phenomenon. There is either no explanation whether its the intuiton of the victims or intution of the Hillhouse itself or Hillhouse's independency from the time-space dimension that Hillhouse projects over the victims their future selves like Bent-Neck Lady or anything else. And yet again although it doesnt change my highly developed opinion of this series which is quite unique, the last episode actually undoes many aspects of the developed story, the very concept of the Hillhouse being malevolent, which in the end killed a mother and a daughter out of deception, manipulation, and disguise environment and elements projected over the victims even though they never existed in the first place; and last episode kept it as it is -accepting without question- which is inconsistent to my mind.
Well i guess that is all i have to say, i still must admit, this series gets you by the balls, and you have no idea about it.
Captain Marvel (2019)
A Marvel Classic
The title is no surprise, this movie is a classic hero movie (if you like it) with super hyped CGI and overall Marvel universe. I can totally say i enjoyed it from the beginning to the end with how it was and Carol Denvers was demonstrated. A great movie with great humor, entertainment and a lovely ride to the 90s nostalgia (which at worst case i love it) I think apart from all over-popular intrigue themes in movie-world, as Coulson once said "sometimes what people need is classic" and i can easily say this one classic and supercool hero movie made my day. Captain Marvel is just the hero who can show the damn bastards how to kick ass in a real deal way and i really loved how she was confident about that.
Overall 8.0
Absolutely dont miss it.
About Time (2013)
One of the most surprisingly great movies of all time
This movie makes it happen.. It starts as an ordinary movie of an ordinary thursday night. However it turns out, it is no more than a disguise. This movie is one of the most profound and all-in-all complete movie i ever saw. It makes you happy, it makes you cry, it makes you laugh out loud and more importantly it reminds you the most deeply important facts in our lives one more time but this time with grace..
Absolutely do not miss it,
Over all 9.0
Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017)
Holes everywhere, the crew and director better go hide in that holes...
This was a high budget garbage... I was really disappointed with Force awakens but this one sealed the deal... Disney is finished...
Jessica Jones (2015)
good cast, bad scenario
I really enjoyed the first half of the first season with great enthusiasm..
however the progress of the series becomes so monotous in the second half, its just too much far-fetched as if scenarist/director wants to extend the topic more than it has the content to finish the season... What i enjoy in such fantastic/heroic series that they keep their integrity and a sort of realistic approach to the universe in itself..However in this one, the turn of events becomes so unrealistic in every corner, its just too much eye-hurting to watch such discrepancies in logic..
Frankly speaking i just quit watching it after 10th episode for good, and i will never return back for it...
overall: 5.5
Castlevania (2017)
Quite short for a season and for a rating to give...
This series' topic is quite well known and i must admit it addes some original story to the story and quite interesting i must say. However 4 episodes only for 1 season is bloody short for any kind of series and episodes are not extendedly long or something too... It for sure would attract some attention but hardly leaves any remark on audience's mind in my opinion on the long run...
Mindhunter (2017)
intelligent, interesting, intense
I can easily say i am hooked after first episode and i consider this show as a good follow-up after epic first season of True-Detective series which i felt a big hole after it finished. Although 2 shows has distinct features, the past-time retrospective approach of both shows within similar field of work and mystery elements makes them one of a kind with no doubt.
Story of Mindhunter is obviously intriguing, which includes a history of FBI's relevant division which you will find out in the series. Character developments are -i must say- quite satisfactory and the episodes and the progress are nothing like easily predictable, more like randomized paced which might or might not have direct connection between eachother but in the end depicting a grand picture of all. Simply quite a memorable experience you would have..
dont miss it!
8.5/10
Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
Entertaining
This is not my type of Marvel movie, however i must say it was quite entertaining to watch this movie. First of all there are quite some reference in the jokes and the dialogs in the script and this is more of a Guardians of the Galaxy version of Thor series... and i must say it was very different than the previous movies of this series. Still there was kinda rush feeling in the movie as in Assassins Creed which was not so cool in my opinion... I always prefer a better historical narrative all the time..
Anyway overall 8/10 , its worth to watch in cinema in my opinion.
G.I. Joe: Retaliation (2013)
Crap at best!
This movie is so crappish...Please do not waste any of your time with this garbage...There is absolutely no story...no story at all... Too many discrepancies with dialog, scenario and action.. Uff it is just awful to watch such shitty movie... First movie was a real GI-Joe movie despite the fact that it got poor ranking at least it had some kind of integrity in between its dynamics and a lot of entertainment meanwhile... Story was much better and directed much better also.. This follow-up is just unbearable to watch, Bruce Willis, sir sorry to say that but even you cannot save this movie from oblivion....
1/10
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)
Overly Underrated
What can you expect from a movie originated from your childhood? This movie is exactly that...full of action, good actors, good progress and character development... I found this movie is very much entertaining and has a solid integrity in its own way and its definitely enjoyable. Just don't get confused by mature comments here, they don't really know what a new generation GI-Joe movie should be about...
A must watch...
8/10
The Man in the High Castle (2015)
When mystery meets passion, the most surprising show of late
I really liked the title before i watched any episode, though i did not actually have big expectations, the title gave me some positive taste and the fact that i knew already Alexa Davalos from Riddick series (she is kind of actress who leaves some mark on you) and eventually after i watched first season, a delightful taste left on my mind.
I love historical titles and i love sci-fi/paranormal/time-oriented titles too, this series brings forth both concepts in a single title so well-thought, i really felt the story and found myself in it somehow with pure marvel and mystery. After i watched season two, my wonder grew even bigger. I still don't know what is gonna happen and it still thrills me in a way both retrospective, intriguing and awe-inspiring at the same time. I must say beside the powerful younger actors in the series, Rufus Sewell is the one actor whom i found myself watching with great admiration. He is so perfect in this series, how he gives life to Smith character is so admirable you can almost touch the character's soul with both hatred and compassion at the same time.. Overall this series became one of my favourite series against all odds surprisingly. And i hope and wish we will see yet many other seasons with inspiring & complementary stories and character developments attached as well.
9/10
They (2002)
Really Unbelievable...
When i watched it 15 years ago, i just loved it, great horror title. I watched it several times after also, as it happens on all horror titles, watching same movie may not be same effect each time but it is just enough to make audience on the edge of their chair at first time.. Wes Craven at his best, no wonder why it is so compelling... It is really hard to understand this low ranking of the title, perhaps its because many people cannot really connect anymore to their younger self to address the emotional level of this movie. You cant really enjoy this movie if only what you like is heck&slash zombie horrors or gross entertainment... This movie is simple fear and you are gonna get it right or you are not at all... don't watch it with biased comments, just watch it...
You might just love it, not because of the comments here but because you really would do...
9/10
StartUp (2016)
Not A Killer but Pretty OK.
To be frank, i did not watch the first season with full interest but series went better throughout the season. I hope second season is gonna be better. I really liked Edi Gathegi's performance but other performances were mediocre in my opinion. Adam Brodi should quit the same image that he has in OC, being in corporates with killer profiles and making new businesses does not happen with tangled hair and baby faces unless you are the genius who created the business... He better get used to hair gel and suits with a thougher soul on the screen...
Overall 7/10
Chance (2016)
Nothing like you would expect...but blows your mind in a systemic way...
When i watched first episode with great interest because of Hugh Laurie was in the series and a bit of suspicion because of mediocre production resources, however it intrigued me and i thought it was the right call to watch this series, but then the series evolved towards such a spot, impressing me quite a lot which was absolute that i had to watch the rest right away. This is a very good example for a psychological thriller and if you like such theme with intellectual features, it is a great time to watch it believe me, i just loved it, and i hope it will continue for a considerable amount of seasons...
absolutely don't miss it..
9/10
Star Trek (2009)
Epic
I think i watched this movie already 10 times and i can easily call myself a Trekkie. This is a masterpiece regarding Star Trek Saga, how the plot is set is amazing and you can find everything a Sci-fi movie should give the audience in this movie. Every actor and actress has been specifically chosen for this movie, and it is lovely to see them create a new era of Star Trek universe and blend in each other. Musics are awesome, perfectly aligned with the movie course... Movie binds you to your seat from start till the end and you don't really want it to end at last, believe me... You feel a warm breeze of Nostalgia in your bones time to time and at the same time you feel how elegant a reboot can be done in your heart. Against all odds to make this movie right, scenario falls into place brilliantly and your intellect is caressed one more time.
A must watch, don't miss it.
9/10
The Last Samurai (2003)
Extraordinary
This movie is such a movie that you could notice another detail every other time you watch it. The plot has been set so elegantly, set aside the historical discrepancies, i believe it shows a better front and side of Japanese culture and people which are sacred for many Japanese. Please make no mistake, this is not a classical Hollywood heck&slash action movie and there is no popular triumph scene and cliché in the end for you... Everything falls into place brilliantly and every actor/actress in this movie did a great job from top to bottom in my opinion, surprisingly Tom Cruise included, i think this movie is one of the movies he played his part best. The ambiance of the movie is so wonderful, authentic, and historical,the music by Hans Zimmer is so exquisite i think one of the best movie music has ever been created that represents the environment and emotional level of the film. So many detail levels this film has, it just inspires and appeal to your intellect with grace and cool satisfaction. Legend, bravery, romance, dignity, and profound comprehension at their best. One of the few wonders of the movie world as it is showing one of the wonders of real world which Japanese culture has been sharing with us and cherishes it.
10/10
Stranger Things (2016)
Genuinely Beautiful
First of all let me tell you this; this series deserves its ranking from top to bottom.
It can never be expressed well enough how well-done this series is... You are gonna have to watch it yourself. The intellectual, retrospectual, fiction and horror elements in this series with ingenious directing and acting combined made possible an overwhelming experience that catches audience off-guard. The slow but definitive pace of progression starting with Steven-Spielberg-ish elements, turning into a more like Stephen-King story gives you thrill and shivers through out the series. Story is so amazing, you feel that you are so familiar to it but you still do not know what will happen next and what happens next is so satisfactory in many levels, you cannot stop thinking how much you love this series. It is one of the best series i watched lately without any doubt.
