The Magicians (2015)
Did I accidentally start Glee?
Good series until Season 5. It feels like I'm watching very annoying episodes of glee. If they break into song and dance one. More. Time!
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: Part 33 (2019)
WTH
This has got to be the absolute worst episode I have seen in all of the entire franchise!
What the hell is up with Rollins? The whole episode is out of character. The only reason I actually watched the whole thing is because the remote was out of reach and I was too tire to go get it.
All Roads Lead (2013)
What the hell? Wasted an hour
I guess if you liked Blair Witch you may feel differently about this film. I should have known when I was only a minute into it and was already hitting fast forward. I didn't realize it was a mockumentary at first until I recognized an actor. Amazon Prime suggested it after I finished watching actual crime documentaries so I just hit play.
It was very slow and disconjointed. Once they get past the interviews with the "moms" (who no way can be old enough to have these girls unless they were 14 when pregnant), trying to figure out why they are wondering around this little town is very tiresome. There was no real logic for it. I found my self hitting the 10 second forward on my remote over about 20 minutes of it. My thumb got a cramp.
As a documentary, this film would bomb. As a mockumentary you have to like the kind of "lost footage" type of style where there doesn't seem to be a clear direction.
I gave it three stars instead of one, because the acting of dad and girlfriend was excellent. If Heather was supposed to be strung out, then her acting was also up there. Paul was ok, but the whole thing of making little innuendos to try a make him Don Paul of small town IL.was a little hard to swallow.
The last 5-10 minutes was a good plot twist. More could have done with that I think and the final "revelation" was a bit too obvious even way before the reveal. Overall, don't waste your time.
