Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
Spoof?
It had a promising start, which turned underwhelming.
Then, it got goofy.
Then, it got predictable.
Then, it got almost interesting again, but again underwhelming.
And it went on like this the rest of the movie. Promising, but ended up underwhelming.
If this was a spoof of itself, it would be brilliant. But it isnt, they just made a few (alot) jokes to many.
The bad guy they could have made so much more with, but they chose not to. Same with the Thors.
Actionscenes were decent, some of them good, but its the parts between the action that was poorly executed and filled with bad comedy and "on the nose" dialogue.
Watchable, barely.
Meltdown: Three Mile Island (2022)
Documantary? More of a "based on a real event".
10 minutes in and i realized that the documantary i thought i was going to watch to learn something, i learned that i probably know more about it then the entire filmcrew.
And after episode 3 i knew i not only know more, i also am way more interested in facts.
This "documentary" has two things correct. The name of the plant and the date it happened. Thats about it.
The Batman (2022)
In what year is this supposed to take place?
Some of the scenes makes it as it is recent, some seems to indicate the 80's. Others somewhere in between.
Noir but still not noir. Bit confusing at times. Not my cup of tea.
Go-Big Show (2021)
Rednecks got talent!
This is hilarious.
I am having so much fun turning my brain off to watch this show.
For you who grades this at a 1/10.
Yes, it's stupid. That's the whole point of the show.
What did you expect to get when Bert "The Machine" Kreischer meets up with a pro-wrestler, a hillbilly countrysinger, snoop dog and - for once - a serious actress (Rosario Dawson) as the oddball one instead of the other way around?
Kids reading Shakespear?
Jeebuz, you pretentious pricks need to find your inner rednecks.
Eternals (2021)
"Eternals will return"..... Please for the love of MCU, don't.
Poor writing, worse editing, horrible directing.
Actings decent given the pile of menour they had to work with.
CGI good until credit scene No1. An you all know what i mean.
This we (atleast i) do not need in the MCU.
I want to erase it from my mind. Where a man in black when you need one?
The Book of Boba Fett (2021)
kids show, meh.
CGI good. Practical such as makeup isnt.
Fightscenes are Power Rangers (1990's) level.
Entertaining enough to see where it is going, but wont run to the stores for merch anytime soon.
The Wheel of Time (2021)
Book-fundamentalists are like the whitecloaks
There are things i dont like and things that is a vast improvement from the books.
1. Aging up the kids is a great thing. I wasnt keen on handle teen angst when i was a teen myself and now as an old fart i really just find it annoying.
2. Perrin married? Him being introvert and protective could have been handled in a better way.
3. Ep1 should have been stretched into two episodes for character development.
4. Mats storyline is the best improvement by far. We have learned more about him in the first 3 episodes than in the first 5 books compined.
5. A whitecloak would never recommend going to a aes sedai for any reason. More likely they would kill you on the spot out of "mercy".
But what i hate the most about the show is the redicolous book-fundamentalists that spew garbage abut the changes. They remind me of the whitecloaks to be honest. Heads so far up eachothers cracks and mental capacity of an earthworm.
But i hope they will fade (badum tssch) away eventually.
The show is good, the acting is stupid good and the scenery is breathtaking.
Foundation (2021)
I'll have to pause the show and rethink after the first 2 episodes.
I have read the books a few times, they are classics in par with Tolkiens Lord of the rings in my mind.
Now i do know they have to adapt elements from book to small screen. I dont mind the genderswaps or namechanges.
But i simply cant ignore that they altered just about every central element from the first chapters.
For me, it is like starting the Fellowship of the ring with Frodo shooting his way out of the shire and Gandalf being a bald hunchback.
It is cinematic excellence, the acting is brilliant. Therefor i will give it 5 stars for that atleast.
But it isnt Asimovs Foundation.
So i will pause until i can come to term with that and see this as a completely new story, void of Asimovs writing.
Llamageddon (2015)
Academy award-worthy
They were robbed, ROBBED i say.
To rob them for the Special Effects-award is out of pure spite.
Candyman (2021)
So close
This will be short.
Things could have been done alot better.
The killings for instance is not up to par. And somewhere in the last third it seems rushed.
Still much better than most movies in the genre.
Titans (2018)
Since they wrote out "Rachel" in S3. not worth it.
Rachel made this show special.
Without that character, not really worth it.
Struggled myself through the first two episodes and decided to move on.
Turner & Hooch (2021)
Feel good-series.
Its good fun. Light hearted and no extremes in any direction.
Nice chemistry between actor and dog.
Hope it gets traction.
Army of the Dead (2021)
17 minutes.
17 minutes, that was all a could manage before turning it off.
If it becomes better after this point i don't know. But i can't for my life see what that would be.
Jupiter's Legacy (2021)
Finally some superheroes with depth to them
There are some interesting characterbuilds in this series. More depth, which is great.
I even like the slow builds.
Nice nods to both MCU and DCU, i can also see inspirations from Heroes (first season was great, ignore the rest).
I would give it a 9, but the horrible makeup (jeezus, make better fake beards) takes away two points.
Looking forward to a season 2, hopefuly with new staff in the makeup department.
